Still nothing for me.

 

Have a great weekend ladies!

I used up a box of the old version of Nice n Easy. Since I mix two shades and then only use half a box to color my roots, two boxes = 4 applications. I only have 8 boxes of the old Nice n Easy hair color left in my beauty stash Smiley Sad

 

I also used up a tube of the old version of the CC conditioner cream that comes with the old Nice n Easy hair color.

 

I tossed out a Marcelle skin fusion concealer. It came with a matching foundation which is OK but the concealer settles into fine lines and is streaky and can't be built up. No loss by tossing it out.

 

I also tossed out a Life Brand dupe for Oxy pads. The scent is awful so I won't use it.

 

I tossed out the Klara blush/bronzer/highlight palette as I find the blush which is a dupe for Nars "O" just has too much gold glitter in the blush for my taste. I think that's why I have never been a fan of Nars "O" blush either.


@TY I am happy for you that you still have some of the old Nice n Easy.  I tried the new ones, and they stain my pillowcase. That has never happened with the old formula.

[ Edited ]

It's been a really good use-it-up week. Because it's getting near to the end of the year, I am finishing a lot of products.

 

Used up:

Daiso blotting papers - This was fine but smaller than the Boscia papers I prefer.

 

Stowaway Translucent Powder - I like this powder a lot. It's very finely milled so I can use it under my eyes. I would repurchase this in the future.

 

Urban Decay Go Naked perfume oil - I love this scent and replaced it with another bottle from the stash. It was limited edition but I would repurchase it if I could.

 

Stark Skincare Everlasting Calm & Smooth Infusion - This was a nice hydrating serum. I went through it quickly, even though I only used a couple of drops at a time. I would repurchase this in the future.

 

Boscia Charcoal Makeup Melter - I got this from TJ Maxx and although the expiration date is in 2019, it was definitely going off. No more buying skincare from TJ Maxx for me. I wonder how a fresh one is? I'm not repurchasing as I have other K-beauty cleansing balms that I like better.

 

Tossed:

Down to Earth Tea Tree oil - This is really old and is almost finished. I have a new doTerra one that is much stronger.

 

Stowaway Blush in Peach and Fawn - These were nice but they're getting old and I have newer ones in similar colors. Blush takes forever to use up. I couldn't even hit pan on these tiny ones.

Happy Friday to all!

 

This week I used up:

Make P:Rem sunblock cream which I use on my face.  This is my favorite and I also like the lotion that I use for the rest of my body (not much exposed in this cold weather!) 

 

Paula's Choice eye cream.  I have another in my stash but won't repurchase after that.  I know I can find a less expensive eye cream.  

 

Tossed:

A Red Apple lipstick in a color that won't work for me.  There's something about this formula that makes the lipsticks look all smeary on my lips so I won't be purchasing any more.  

 

Hope you all have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy weekend beauties!

 

I used up: Sierra Bees Lip Balm in Mint burst- this was the last one in an 8 pack that I ordered. I didn't like most of them because they didn't have any scent or flavor but I really liked the mint one, I would repurchase that one as just a single if I stumbled on it. I replaced it with one from Simple Truth that I got at Kroger

 

BBW Moonlight Path body spray 8oz- this was my last product in this scent and I don't think I'll be repurchasing it, I'm pretty much over this scent

 

Tossed: Andalou Naturals 1000 Roses CC SPF 50- I liked the consistency of this product and the coverage but it just didn't dry down and left my face really sticky. My hair would stick to my face and I couldn't stand it so I tossed it

 

EDM Mini foundation brush- this was a free gift and I didn't like it at all, I use an e.l.f. foundation for my mineral foundation that I like better

 

That's it for me, have a great Thanksgiving week everyone!

Hi beauties,

 

I just finished Korres exfoliating scrub in Mint Tea.  That feels so good scrubbing away.  I have the Mint Tea body lotion and the Mint Tea body wash that I'm working on.  I really like the Korres scrubs.  Would recommend.  

 

Have a nice weekend.  Stay warm.

I agree that the new Nice n Easy hair color is not good. I tried it once when it first came on the market in January and I thought it was awful. I then went and bought every box of the old hair color in the shades 5 medium brown and 5N medium neutral brown that I could find. Alas I also miscounted how many boxes I have left as I had an empty box that held empty bottles so I only have 7 boxes left. I will have to be on the hunt for a box of the old formula of color 5N.

I’m almost to the bottom of my Bobbi Brown Soothing Cleansing Oil. I try to hold out until the supersize is offered once a year. I found it on Nordstrom site this morning with GWP. 

 

I had my Retin A rx refilled and it’s waiting for pickup at CVS. 

 

My Skinsceuticals skincare products last 6-8 months since very little is applied each time, so still good there.

 

Purchased Dolly Buxom Gloss...an oldie, but goodie!!
