I'm ready to jive...👍
Are you going to leave directions to the new hive here?
I finished up a few things today so I figured I'd just go ahead and create a home for our little colony. 🐝
Swarm on over to Among Friends and check out The Bee Hive!

I’ve been buying up a storm...interesting that it’s been repurchases if things I’ve used up in the past. Sheer glosssticks were half off so I bought all 4! CC cream in a matte version (I originally used the regular version but had irritation from it) was BOGO. Got 2 shades to mix. I don’t feel like myself right now.
I also used up & decluttered a bunch of things that I post on the use it up thread. Skincare is almost down to the basics. There’s a vitamin C powder I want to finish and then I won’t be using a separate Vit C product.
A certain VIP sale is coming up soon. I’m going to do my usual stock up at that time. But I’m not sure that I will be shopping much from there in the future. I went in-person to get a gift for DD’s bday. I was escorted around the store. The sales person asked me what I was interested in and walked me to each product. I asked to see shades. It was put on plexiglass and held up near my face. Weirdest experience ever. I understand that they are concerned about customers touching products but that was pretty extreme. So glad there is free shipping options. Oh they also told me that if I want to try anything out, juts buy it and return it if it doesn’t work. I really don’t want to waste product like that. So maybe this explains my new thing of repurchasing oldies & goodies. In multiples. 🤷🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
That's why I'm not looking forward to my eye appointment. How do you search for a new frame? I mean, I usually try on just about every frame in the place. I can't expect an associate to have that much time or patience if she will be the one pulling frames off the wall, wiping them down and replacing them.
I'm going to end up with a frame I dislike.
As for makeup and skincare, it really helps to... ComPact. I've found products that work and I'm sticking with them as long as I can. Sure, there are new ones throwing themselves in front of me all the time, but I'm not interested. I feel married to Lumene moisturizer and CC cream and to Maybelline mascara. Been using these for years.
Oldies but goodies.
@just bee Buying new frames sounds like mission impossible! So much touching and cleaning, eek. Have you considered those online glasses companies that send you several pairs to try on and you keep the ones you like? I wondered how good those really are at finding a match.
Gotta love the oldies but goodies. I am trying to make myself an oldie but goodie, heehee. A little oldie with a few newbies with a mature style.

I got poofed but in it I said I will be there. Just say when & where. And I like seasonal too.
Hide your face in shame!
@just bee @geezerette Yes, so much shame. I've always been a good girl. This feels so wrong.

That's what I've done too. I finally found a few basic products that I like and I'm sticking with. Of course, I'm sure that means they'll change the ingredients or discontinue the products entirely!
Things have indeed changed. And who knows for how long. Or how many will change back later, or be changed (or just gone) forever. Some of this stuff was coming and just got a nudge, but a lot of it is really different and difficult to adapt to.@Oshare-girl Happy Birthday to your DD!🎂 I hope you found something suitable on your shopping expedition, despite your weirdest experience ever. 🙃
@geezerette Thank you for the bday wishes. I'm starting to create her college stash so I found a blow dryer brush for her gift. She's going to need to start drying her hair before she goes to bed when she's on the mainland. It gets cold over in y'alls neck of the woods, not like here. I'm getting more and more sentimental as the year goes on. Everything is a last something for her now that she's in her senior year. How time flies.
She uses my nail polish and commented on how the color was suited to our skintones. That made me feel so good. That my purchases have been intentional. As favorite products have gotten discontinued, I have a better idea of how to pick a replacement. So bring it on, cosmetic companies. I can handle the change without going broke.

Aw.❤️ Bittersweet, I'm sure. We work so hard to make our kids individuals and independent, but then when they get there, well...😢
But it sounds like your DD is doing great and Mom (and Dad 😉) have reason to be proud of her. She didn't get that way on her own.
And that's the right attitude to have! Bring it on, cosmetic companies! 💪
Now, if you could send some of that strength and determination my way...
