Re: Beauty Purchases This Week; 12/21/23

I wasn't really planning on getting anything either, but I had noticed these smaller travel sizes of fragrances at Macys and had decided to get them.

 

I have been wanting to try these fragrances lately and figured that this would be a nice way of trying them by trying them in smaller sizes.

 

I wasn't in any hurry to get them, thinking that they would be sent after Christmas, but I had ordered them just a few days ago, and this is how great Macys is--they sent them next day UPS air and they arrived yesterday. Smiley Happy

 

The shipping was free when you spent $25 on beauty items.

 

I bought a 0.33 travel spray tube of Estee Lauder Beautiful Magnolia Eau de Parfum spray.

 

I tried it out and it's really very pretty. It does smell like magnolias. It is very light and clean-smelling.

 

I also bought a three piece kit of Elizabeth Arden Eau de Toilette fragrances.

 

The fragrances that came in the set are: Green Tea 0.5 oz. spray bottle, Red Door 0.33 oz. spray bottle, and White Tea 0.33 oz. spray bottle.

 

I will be trying them out over the next few days, too.

I received my Korres shipment today. The yoghurt gel cream is a backup for when I run out. 

 

I opened the olive pear honey body cream: the scent is amazing! 

 

This shipment also included trial sizes of yoghurt cleanser. A recent shipment had samples of Santorini grape skin drink. I like the skin drink, but I won't be purchasing more; don't feel that it's really necessary. It's expensive, and I would have to get it on sale or accumulate enough points. There are other items I would get before that one. 

 

One thing that would be a repurchase is the 3-in1 nourishing olive oil. Once I use up my trial size, I'm thinking of getting the standard size. I apply the oil combined with body cream for extra hydration. The oil works well as a smoothing texture for the ends of my hair.

We had Christmas with our daughter's family today.  She was quite delighted with her box full of skincare goodies.  She kept telling me how much she likes snail mucin. I had  no idea but fortunately I put a couple of snail things in the mix. I even created what I thought should be her AM and PM routines and put them into a document so she could refer to it as needed.

@monicakm  when you receive the Glow Recipe Cloudberry toner, I want to know how it compares to the watermelon toner. I am using the watermelon toner, which I like. I might consider the Cloudberry if it came in a mini size.
