What did you use up this week? 2/24

kathie66 — Thu, 23 Feb 2023 23:14:54 GMT

Hi Friends,

Used up:

32 oz. WEN Winter Vanilla Mint CC- a favorite scent and formula. Replaced with the new winter scent Chocolate Truffle from stash.

Dr. Teal's Epsom Salt Soaking Solution Comfort and Calm Chamomile- this was ok. I like other scents of this better. Replaced with Dr. Teal's Pink Himalayan Mineral Soak from the stash.

How about you?

Have a good weekend. Be well all!

Hello Beauties!

This week I used up:

-Maybelline Lipliner in Almond Rose, great color, replaced from stash!

-L'Oreal Hyaluronic Acid Serum, will repurchase next time I'm out.

-Essence Lip Gloss, clear. Great glosses at a pittance! Will buy again!

-Neutrogena Make-Up Remover Wipes, replace from stash, a staple.

Tossed:

-L'Oreal Midnight Serum, made me break out!

-Flower Beauty Supernova Celestial Primer, love the primer, my issue is with the delivery system. It comes out as a foam, ran through the propellant with almost a full can of product, will not buy again.

That is it! Be Well Everyone!

I didn't finish anything this week. I'm just stopping by to say hi and hope everyone has a nice weekend. 😊

Good evening! What did I use up?

Toothpaste. That's it. Nothing exciting, just toothpaste. LOL

Have a good weekend! Stay dry and warm!

Hello beauties. I used up:

Microdelivery wash, 4 oz. I have a new 32 oz to open.

Razor blade refills. 5 pack. I have 3 more packs!

Make up usage has been so slow! I wear make up most days, but seems to last and last. Have a good weekend!

Clinique Take Off The Day for Lids, Lashes and Lips Just finished a second sample size I got as a free gift with purchase. Replaced with a 4 ounce sized bottle.

Used up a Ginger scent from my 2 y.o. mini Philosophy summer gels set. I forget the exact name. It was ok.

Used up yet another of my mini dentist office toothpastes. Lol...obviously I've had too many stored up AND last time I went to CVS I forgot to buy (full-sized) toothpaste, so they've been my fall back!

Loreal Voluminous Original Mascara Had another ready to go.

Threw out an old tinted Josie Maran body butter. I used to like to use it on my legs spring/early summer when my legs needed some color. It hardly did much, except in my mind, lol...maybe a little tinted glow. But...it was about 5 years old, jumbo size, smelled like it might be a bit "off" and it seemed at the rate I was using this up...it'd take me a decade to use it up! Never know what might be growing in there. Was ok but won't be buying again. It was actually something my mom bought then gave to me...she's been gone going on 3 years so....yeah, ok to let it go.

I do like Josie's untinted body butters.

I think that's it for me this week! Happy weekend, y'all. 😎

@ninjawife How did you like it? Does it really take off mascara well? Lately I find no matter what I use, the Neutrogena wipes, Loreal in the bottle, Philosophy Purity, washing several times, using a face cloth etc...I always wake up and find I still had mascara residual that didn't come off! (my current mascara is Loreal Voluminous)

My DRMTLGY Tinted Moisturizer SPF is at its last squirt a few days ago and another is on its way. I've been testing it out, so didn't have a backup.

My Primal Greens drink (does that count? On busy days when I just ngrab a yogut for luch, I miss out on my veggies and some nutrients. Started on this about 6 months ago.

@kathie66 Love epsom salts...have lavender near the tub for my nightly dry brushing and soak.

@amyb Yeah, I used that JM stuff too and wasn't jumping up and down over it. It started to have a smell to it for me as well. Like play dough or something. It did a good enough job but I won't repurchase...until I see my pale legs I guess lol.

I bought JM self tanner with mitt last year and never used it. I sure hope it's still good. I've never used self tanner. I always chicken out. I'm always afraid I'll look like certain hosts. 😆

I did try Sally Hansen leg color and it was pretty good.

Although I didn't take great caution in doing an even job applying it, it didn't streak and looked pretty even. I need something simple.

I'm not sure if this is still available. I hope it is. I got the light and it is just enough color to make legs look healthy. I basically have a medium skin tone but light is the right choice for me.
A tube of this stuff lasts and lasts.

@Shanus How is that tinted moisturizer? Do you recommend it?

Dr. Kaplan's Diamond Contour moisturizer. My favorite, so ordered another from his website.

Happy weekend ahead!

It works really well taking off my eyeliner. I don't wear mascara regularly and when I do I wear tubing mascara which easily come off just washing with cleanser. Purity did not remove all my eyeliner which is why I use the Clinque prior to washing my face.

@KBEANS I'm loving that SPF. The tint is universal, even for my fair skin. It also moisturizes and has spf 46. Three steps in one...blush, gloss, mascara and out the door.

I used up my last tube of ButterLondon serum shadow. I will definitely be buying up a couple more tubes when I can find it on sale. It is my "one and done" eyeshadow.

@Shanus - am wondering if you like the DRMTLGY tinted moisturizer with spf better than the ELTA MD spf you were using. I bought the ELTA MD one after hearing how much you liked it. Just curious which one you like better.

I used up a jar of Peter T. Roth Water Drench moisture cream. Have been working on it quite a while using as a morning moisturizer only. Won't re-purchase since it leaves my face feeling tacky. Moving on to using my Tatcha Dewy Skin Cream from my stash. Will see how this compares before I move on to something else. I have a line up waiting to use.

Also finished a container of Vital Proteins Marine Collagen and replaced with Andrew Lessman Free Range Collagen. I don't think the Vital Proteins works as welll for my body as other products so will be trying out several others.

Used up a generic Careprost from All Day Chemist. Use on brows and use Prevage Eye Lash Serum on my lashes. Got the Prevage in a set from HSN some time back and I am determined to use up more stuff on hand. Replaced the Careprost with another from ADC. It's done wonders for my brows.

That's it for me beauties! Have a good weekend. It's gorgeous weather here today at 71 degrees (not as hot as predicted!). A bit cloudy, but beautiful weather today.

@JudyL ME TOO! I was just checking to see who used up what and the comments. When I saw your post I started to laugh.... that is EXACTLY my contribution this week!

Have a great weekend everyone... be safe, happy and stay healthy.

@ninjawife @amyb I really like the CLINIQUE Rinse Off Eye Make Up Solvent. I'm on my 3rd big bottle. It takes off all of my eye make up so easily. If I use a saturated cotton ball or wipe I hold it to my eye for a few seconds and then wipe. I typically use one small cotton ball per eye or one large one for both. So far it's the best I've found.... better than Lancome, IMO.

@nyc1 I used to use that way back in the day. Sounds like I should return to it! I also used to use Clarins then too.

Tks for the input!
