I don't use all of those products, but the sunscreen was interesting. I have always heard that you should use a shot glass worth of sunscreen for the whole body- not sure how many grapes would fit in one.

@lolakimono,

Yes, I think the amount of sunscreen needed, however, would depend on your body size. Don't you think?

I think the moral of the story is most people are probably using too much product, except for sunscreen where "more is more."  Thanks for posting!

This is really helpful.  I am using way too much of some products.

This is great! I use way more of some (and need to!!) but way less on others (because it's way TOO much otherwise).

 

Regarding sunscreen: I've often heard that a 1 ounce bottle of face spf will only last you a week or so if you use it correctly and daily. That's WAY more than a grape for your face. (I use 5 peas size blobs on my face and a large blob on my neck and chest. )  Wonder how many grapes that all would equal.

 

Thank you for this!! : )

Re: How Much Product do I Really Need?

Many years ago someone pointed out to me that I didn't really need all that toothpaste (covering the length of the bristles). So I switched from half a green bean to a raisin. My checkups have been cavity-free for years - decades, really - and a tube of toothpaste lasts a loooong time!

 

@lolakimonoThis is a fun and easy-to-read chart! You find the most unique and fun things. No wonder you're the guru!

This is a basic guide it will also need to take into account how much hair you have and how thick it is

I wanna know HOW LONG (minutes, hours?) a beauty product is actually "working".........before I can wash it off and change to another one.    You can tell.....I need a LOT of help.....................
