This post got delayed last month because I was still waiting on some of my COTMs (Color of the Month), so I decided to just push it back until now so I could include July's COTMs as well. And I have a few extra brands to include this month, including some Darling Girl and a perfume from Alchimia Apothecary that was part of the Rusalka Menagerie from Aromaleigh.
For this week's Indies of the Week post, I have two products to review. One is a favorite of mine, and the other was a recent gift I received. Hello Waffle's Finishing Powder is a product I use almost every time I do my makeup. And Darling Girl's Happy Slapsgiving lipstick is something I just recently was gifted and even though it is no longer available, I had to swatch and review it. If I'm not reviewing a product, sometimes it can take me forever to try it, and I wanted to try it as soon as possible!

My March Innocent+Twisted Alchemy subscription arrived a while ago, but I just got a chance to swatch it all. There were a lot of bonus extras this month, a few from companies I've been meaning to try!

Merry Christmas! I hope you all that celebrate are having a nice day with friends or family. I'm spending most of the day with my parents, cooking dinner, and hanging out with B. It seemed like the perfect day to review Darling Girl Cosmetics' The Darling Whos Collection! It's inspired by the movie How The Grinch Stole Christmas, and the Whos.
