I actually used up a few products this week:

Marcelle gel cleanser -- no fragrance and will repurchase in the future.

Toppik -- replaced with one from my beauty stash.

L'Oreal Root touch up spray -- replaced with one from my beauty stash.

Now tossed out because I didn't like it:

Covergirl mascara -- the purple tube. Not my favorite as it doesn't curl my lashes.

Tossed because I don't like the big palette -- Quo contour palette. I only used one color of 3.

Just one thing used up for me this week!

L'Oreal Essential Oil Serum for hair. Love this and bought another bottle this morning!

Have a great weekend!

Used up:

DIY toner - I made up another batch of witch hazel and orange blossom water (usually it's rosewater) for this month.  This is what I use to cleanse my face in the morning.

Hello Beauties,

I didn't have anything to report last week so I'm glad to have something for this week:

Kiddos actually used up 2 shower gels they had going at once, one from Suave and one from Silkience. They have always gone thru shower gel so quickly, I just get them really cheap stuff. I replaced it with another from Silkience. I get them from the dollar tree and they're cruelty free so it's a win-win. I actually only have a couple left so I need to make another trip to the dollar store soon

I tossed the remnants of a Doll 10 Hydrogel concealer and a Physicians formula Shimmer strips eye palette in Classic Nudes. The concealer was watery and didn't cover anything, I'm using a $4 Photo focus concealer from Wet N Wild that I actually like better. The palette was nice and I used quite a bit of it but it was a little too shimmery for me. I do like some shimmer in my shadows but this was a bit too much for me. I have other palettes here to work on

That's all for me this week, see you next week and have a great weekend!

@rnmom  Are you able to use the Wet N Wild Photo focus concealer under your eyes?  I'm on the lookout for something I can use under my eyes that doesn't look dry or accentuate fine lines, but is also not expensive.

Where do you purchase your orange blossom water?

mistriTsquirrel- I do use the Photo Focus concealer under my eyes. It does settle into the fine lines a little bit, but EVERY concealer I have tried does, no matter what it claims or how much it costs. This one actually seems to settle the least so I prefer it. I did buy  e.l.f. under eye primer to use with it but I'm not sure that I can tell a difference with it or without it.

Thanks, @rnmom.  I was thinking about getting that elf undereye primer too.  It's only $3, I think.  Maybe I'll stick to putting a silicone-based face primer under my eyes before concealer.  That is probably just as effective.  Thanks for the tip on the concealer!!  I don't mind as much when they crease a little bit if I didn't have to pay $25 for the product.  I guess it's just a matter of finding one that creases less.

@Leeny I get mine from a health food store.  It's from a brand called Indo-European.  It's actually in the grocery section of the store.  I wonder how people use this in food?  I also buy the rosewater from this brand.

@Oshare-girl

Thank You, I will check this out at our health food store or the  local co-op.
