Use It, Stash It, Or Trash It: The Holiday Collection Edition

Time to start Monday off with a little fun because lord knows I can use some fun at the start of a boring work week, even though it’s a short one eh?

The name of the game is Use It, Stash It, or Trash it and it’s a variation of Sex, Marry, Kill. Never played it? It’s easy!

Ready to play?

So maybe E.L.F. Studio Complete Coverage Concealer might be another winner?
