Good morning Beauties!  Let us know what you bought this week and how you like it.

 

Here's my list:

 

KORRES - a 1/2 oz of the Santorini Grape Drink.  Going to try this and see if I like it. Haven't liked face oils before as they seem to just sit on my skin and make it feel oily but was willing to try this for $10 after reading all the good reviews here.

 

ELF - Blending sponges.  Like these for foundation.  Also, Complexion Duo Brush, have one of these already and wanted a back-up.

 

Milani - Silky Matte Bronzing Powder in Sun Light (01).  Had the 02 shade - can't remember the name - but think this is a better shade for me.

 

Kaja - Yes, I'm trying another concealer.  After reading all the good reviews here, decided to see if this one would work for me.  Got it in "04 waffles" LOL  Hope it doesn't make me hungry.  Haven't received it yet.

 

Hourglass - mini Ambient Lighting Blush in Mood Exposure.  This blush was talked about in another post so decided to add it to my order with the Kaja concealer.  Like the mini size to be able to try it.

 

Looking forward to reading everyones posts.

I needed some more VieBeauti Lash Serum. I usually buy it from Amazon but just by chance I checked Walmart dot com and found it. But that's not what excited me. The one WM sells is a travel-size 2-ml vs the full-size 3-ml. The WM travel-size is $10 !  and it has free shipping. Do the math. I bought two.

@JudyL , love those minis.  My local Sephora doesn't carry the Hourglass ones so I have to order, but for me they are great since I only wear makeup once a week.

 

SKINN Neck Amour Redensify serum.  It was offered as a 2 pk last week for $60.  I'm currently using it.  Looked into the Prai that others here like, but I have used it before, so unless they have changed the formulation, it wasn't anything special.  I've also used Gold Bond Neck & Chest but I think it's been discontinued.  I can no longer find it locally and one 2 oz tube on Amazon is currently selling for $80.

Re: Beauty Purchases; 7/20/23

Will be purchasing the following when I am home permanently from our beach house on August 11.  

 

JVN Nuture Intense Hydration Mask   This is brand new and I need a good conditioning hair mask. 

 

Jones Road The Face Pencil   I don't wear much make up.  No foundation or anything like that but I need to conceal the dark circles under my eyes.  My insomia has never been worse and it is showing on my face.

Re: Beauty Purchases; 7/20/23

I am not buying a lot of beauty right now but I got:

 

Active Aragon:  Eye + Face Plant Stem Cell Night Set.  My curiosity got the better of me and I just wanted to try this set.  I have the AA sunscreen for face and  like it so decided to give this a try.  

 

Put the RMS facial sunscreen serum in my cart and decided I really don't need it, but not sure if I missed out by not ordering that one.  I don't like to wear a lot of make up in this heat and humidity so this might work for me. 

 

That's it for me this week.  It's raining here again.  

If my dog doesn't like you, neither do I.

Finally opened my Paula's Choice pkg. and began using their Daily Defense Tinted Moisturizer with SPF 30.

 

Since I do not spend much time in the sun, the 30 would be fine.  There is no eye stinging !

 

I apply my eye primer over eye and under eye then baked Balance and Glow powder.  Looks great till night cleansing.

Good day


@MG Chris   I'd like to know what you think of the hand cream. I saw it there yesterday.

 

I bought 

 

Fragrance Sampler from Sephora. @Jordan2 tipped me off.  You buy 10 perfume samples and get a coupon for a full size of one of the samples 


Bobbi Brown Primer Moisturizer Duo N- Sale
. They have excellent gifts with purchase and the duo is BOGO so I bit.

 

Have a good weekend

Re: Beauty Purchases; 7/20/23

Hi Beauties!  I've been wracking my brain, trying to recall my purchases this week.  Apparently there weren't that many, for a change. 

Maybelline Creme Lipsticks (Touchable Taupe and Crazy for Coffee) - finally found a couple of brown shades that look decent on me.

 

CosRx Snail Mucin 96% Repair Essence - added this to my Amazon subscription for Aug. 2 delivery.  I decided to discontinue the snail mucin serum I have been using and return to this one.  I use multiple serums and needed to get rid of one, but still want the snail mucin bennies, so this seemed like a good idea. I'm also using IT Nude Glow CC Cream more often and it's an ingredient in it too.

 

Therapeutic Massage - monthly appointment.  My regular guy is leaving the clinic, to return to school for another degree, Masters, I think, so this was my last appointment with him.  I wasn’t as tight and knotted up this time so he didn’t do any cupping or hot stones, but he spent a nice amount of time on my neck and shoulders after he did my back.   Have an appointment next month with a new girl.  He said she’s great and that I’ll like her.

Re: Beauty Purchases; 7/20/23

Tomorrow is not a beach day.  The forcast is calling for rain most of the day.  I made an appointment to have my hair washed, blown dry and styled.  I just got an email from my new employer that I need to send them a photo for my new ID badge.  So after I get all prettied up, DH is going to take my picture.  At my last job my ID photo was rough looking and since I may be at this job until I retire in 10 years, I would like to have a nice picture.
