Those 'faves' that are only faves until a better version comes along have to be pretty common!

My latest two of these:

- liquid lipstick - I loved the Velourlips ones, and then came Kat von D, and now I NEED all the KVD colours <3 The Velourlips are still good but the KVD are life

- Snow Fairy was my ultimate shower gel for a long time, until this week. The Comforter (which I just reviewed and compared to the sisters in 10 things I hate about you haha) is it's sexier, sassier sister, and I'm head over heels in love and wondering if I can trade my SF in :P

What are yours?

I love Snow Fairy but I just finished my last bottle of Comforter and I am Lusting after more!!!
I really need to use up some of my stash before justifying another spend though... I have enough shower gel to last all year and some :/
But... I may sneak a large bottle in next time I do an order <3

I feel like this happens to me all the time.?I fall in love with products, but then I love trying new things out so I always seem to find new loves. I used to adore the Maybelline Falsies and Colossal mascaras, now I prefer higher end ones.Naked palette, I think I prefer chocolate bar now.Snow fairy was my fave too but now I love rose jam more. I haven't tried out my comforter cream out yet though, so I guess things could change!Perfume is an ever changing fave for me, I fall in love with new ones all the time.

I'm the same as Renee, my fave fragrance ALWAYS changes! I'll be loving Onika one week, then Elie Saab the next. I'm definitely a fragrance commitment-phobe.

Another would be L'Oreal True Match foundation, I used to love that stuff, but it has since been replaced with Maybelline Matte & Poreless for my go-to medium coverage foundation #sorrynotsorry

I've always loved using black gel pencil liner ... until I tried EoH Liquid Define Liner.  It now has me torn between using up the many gel pencils that I own or just buying more pen-like liquid liners.

My loose powder is running low.  I've been using Yardley's translucent powder for years!  It came over with me when I emigrated here years ago and then I bought refills when I went back to visit family.  I can't get it in NZ, so now I'm forced to change my mind and use something similar ... so much to choose from, but I think it's time for a change!

Yes! I was in love with Jeffree star until I got my Kat von D liquid lipstick - now I hardly use the JS and need more KvD colours!

I loved Antipodes oil the most of all the oils I've tried, until I tried True, now I'm really confused, I love them both!

Yup unfortunately - but I find if I wear KvD to course I get home at 6 after leaving at 7 that morning and it still looks exactly the same - my JS ones go all over the place when I eat lunch :/ (I do still love the colours though)

MAC prep and prime helps with the JS and i also have a sephora universal liner that works too. But yeah i love the colour ( i have prom night) but the KVD walks all over it in every respect. I have KVD in backstage bambi and l.u.v...i want bauhau5 but i have it in the studded kiss range so maybe another red shade next ;)

Yeah I've tried a couple of lip liner/lip primer attempts to keep the JS stuck, but they haven't worked - I don't buy MAC, so I think I'll just have to keep it as a non-longwearing liquid lipstick that I know I need to keep an eye on haha.

I want Backstage bambi it's gorgeous. I always think I'm going to go for some colours I don't have a lot of but never do haha

I walked away from bambi in sydney and regretted it so as soon as sephora launched here i grabbed one! Sometimes i apply, blot, dust with powder and reapply the JS which helps

I thought the ambient lighting was the best thing ever. Then I found becca shimmering skin perfector and that's ruined me. I find I reach for my nars over Charlotte Tilbury blush as the nars is a quick 1 step instead of blush and highlight.

I am very partial to snow fairy but I shall have to try comforter. KVD sounds pretty good too. I really like my chi chi eyeliner and eyeshadow palette but other than that I don't really have any favorites.

Macs it's nice to see that you seem happier these days - hopefully the situation that was stressing you out at xmas has alleviated - the fact that you're able to treat yourself again now makes me think it has, which is awesome. Never like seeing people frustrated and down.

You won't regret the Comforter I don't think. I'm just annoyed that I  only have a small bottle!
