What did you use up this week? 3/31

kathie66 — Fri, 31 Mar 2023 00:03:14 GMT

Hi Friends,

Used up:

Sesderma Acglicolic Classic Nourishing Cream- This was a really nice cream, would consider repurchasing after the stash is down. Replaced with Dr. Denese Med MD 33 Clinical Reserve Cream from the stash.

3 LAB Perfect Cleansing Foam- I really liked this face cleanser, not a repurchase at this time because of the cost and other face cleansers in the stash to use up. Replaced with Tula Purifying Face Cleanser from the stash.

How about you?

Have a good weekend. Be well all!

Hi @kathie66

I used up:

Elemis Ultra Rich moisturizer. Was using it as a neck cream. Will replace with Josie Maran's Milk. Have another jar of the Ultra Rich in my stash but the JM Milk is open and I want to use it up.

That's it for me!

@kathie66 and Beauties:

I "went to town" at the Kiehl's 25% off sale. I was almost out of some skincare and purchased a second backup of my Lavendar Oil Cleanser and the lavender night oil....not the correct names, but already at the office and don't have them here to see labels.

I also used up (just shredded) my microfiber hair towels (Turbie Twists) and ordered a package from Amazon. My cleaning ladies put them in the dryer w/ Bounce sheets which ruins the absorbency. (They're not supposed to even do my laundry, but saw basket in laundry room).

I also used up my stash of Bobbi Brown's Smokey Eye Mascara just in time for Nord. sale and purchased 6.

***Do I need to separate personal and professional purchases? Many purchases and "run out of" items at my office (salon, makeup studio, etc.) Still don't know the perfect name. ***Suggestions for a name are welcome.

Happy Friday Beauties!

I'm relaxing with my coffee. This morning I'm drinking something called Frog's Breath by Bones Coffee Co. Strange name, I know, but it has chocolate in it and is pretty good. Once I take my hearing aids out at night, I don't hear much of anything. Early this morning I was beginning to wake up and got shocked by some pretty loud thunder. I guess that's what we're in for today, thunderstorms off and on all day. I didn't have any plans so it's fine with me. I spotted a crocus in my flower bed yesterday and that made me happy.

Have a nice weekend! 🌷

Here's what happened this week:

Dr. Denese SPF Daycream TSV - tried it, didn’t like it. At first, the application was very nice, but the coverage ended up patchy as it collected in certain areas and disappeared in others. The color that remained oxidized to an unflattering shade. This is too expensive for lackluster performance. Returned it and cancelled the A/D

Belle Beauty Blushabelle Duo - didn’t seem like anything special for the price. I could barely see them on my cheeks. Returned

Younique Contour & Highlight Stick - didn’t like it when I bought it and it’s sat there for a couple years. Pitched

Younique Sculpting Trio - didn’t use it either. Pitched

Perlier Supersize Black Rice Eye Serum - used up and started my last tube.

This week I used up:

-ELF Prep and Hydrate Balm Stick. This is nice but no need to re- purchase, have so many other things to use up.

-Philosophy 3-in-1 Body Wash in Cafe au Lait. 32oz I don't believe these body washes are the best for any skin, especially dry, but I got this when they ran a "from the vault" scent event. Cafe au Lait is a to die for scent! My other favorite is Lemon Custard which is still around.

That is it for the week! Be Well!

I finally used up some Borghese body scrub from ShopHQ I bought at least four years ago as a TSV. It was a huge container and I thought it was the cat's meow when I bought it. Since discovering Josie's body scrubs I have been forcing myself to use it up.

I emptied a bottle of Miele rosemary oil I use on my hair before washing. I had to run out and buy another so I could finish oiling my hair😂

I used up Flat Out Firm Hylauronic and Peptide serum and replaced with Perlier Black Rice Hylauronic serum. I bought the Flat Out at TJMaxx since it was reasonably priced and my big issue is that it's very tacky when it dries. It's a fairly think consistency. Haven't tried the Perlier yet. I have another Flat Out in a smaller size that came in a serum pack and will use later in rotation.

That's it for me this week.

Good afternoon ladies

Waiting for the tornado to hit Chicago - for now it's quiet

Used up

Tarte Lip Gloss. Nothing great was happy to pitch

The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid - Not sure if did anything. Very drying so I put a ton of moisturizer on after. Plus I look the same.

Happy Weekend

Hello beauties. Happy weekend! I used up:

Benefit, they’re real mascara. I liked this. I bought a two pack so I have a backup. I change mascara every 90 days.

Clinique rinse off eye make up,remover. Had this forever, it was part of a GWP.

That’s all ladies.

I used the last little bit of my Bobbi brown lip liner. It was sharpened to the end! Money well spent!

Happy weekend beauties!

I just used up one thing this week: Tresemme hairspray 11oz "4" hold- replaced with the same. This is my go to hairspray and I always try to have some on hand.

Hubby used up a bottle of Head and Shoulders shampoo and younger son used up a bottle of Kroger brand dandruff shampoo. Both were replaced with the same.

Hi Everybody!~

Hope you enjoy your weekend!

I finished a bottle of the Josie Maran Activator Drops (it's a small bottle of serum to be added to the Argon Milk)

Love this stuff. I have it on auto delivery and should be here in a couple weeks. Unfortunately, I was using too much to start and it didn't last the 90 days.

This week I finished a JM Argan Sugar Scrub and I love this and have a stash in different scents. Not this big but when the offer rolls around again I will definitely repurchase.

Palmers Coconut shampoo.

Secret deodorant. Shame on me! I have about 4 different deodorants ( and other products) all open at the same time. 😝

A dupe Zeazorb powder put out from Harmon. It is as equally effective for way less $.

CVS ultra soft cleansing wipes. I go through these like no ones business. They are really great to have on hand while at work, and when your out and about.

Thats all for me. Great Weekend to all.

By chance, was that the Fango scrub? There was a period of time where the Fango scrubs and masks were very popular n this forum.
