TGIF Beauties! What Did You use Up This Week 3/9?

[ Edited ]

Happy Friday Beauties!

 

Hope you had a wonderful week, and are looking forward to a safe and happy weekend. This week i used up;

 

Avon Moisture Effective Eye Make-Up Remover - 2oz A staple but giving a try out to Yves Rocher Gentle Eye Make-up Remover

 

Bare Minerals Prime Time Eye Lid Primer  A staple, replaced with same

 

Yves Rocher Golden Highlights Shampoo - 6.7  This is supposed to bring out the blonde in your hair. Sadly, apparently I do not have that much blonde in my hair, and it did not work for me. It did clean hair well and had a pleasent smell

 

Bath and Body Works Madrain Lime Shower Gel - 10oz  Discontinued.

Good Morning @joseygirl and Everyone on this Great TGIF

 

I used up the following items this week:

1. Algenist Firming and Lifting Cream. 0.5oz size. I replaced this with the same. I use this at night time and hopefully the next time I go to TJ Maxx they will have a larger size.

 

2.Bare Minerals Lash Domination mascara. I received this as a gift size at Sephora. The mascara isn't bad, but the brush is a bit funky. I don't think I'd buy this. I replaced with Laura Geller's Volumizing mascara.

 

3.Sunday Riley CEO Rapid Flash Brightening Serum. Again I received this in a sample size from Sephora. It was a small size so I didn't really see any significance change. 

 

4.Honeysuckle Jasmine Foaming Hand Soap from the 719 Walmart brand. I replaced with the same 12oz size. I actually prefer this to B&B Works hand soap.

 

5.Garnier SkinActive Micellar Cleansing Water.13.5oz size. I need to re-purchase this. I use this after I cleanse. It makes my skin feel extra clean and removes any eye makeup that I may have missed. I have a L'Oreal toner that I will use until I get my replacement. 

 

That is all for this week. I hope everyone enjoys their weekend and I hope to see you all next Friday~~

I used up full size of 

The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid-- feels a little stinky for me.  I will not repurchase this.

 

The Ordinary Niacinamide + Zinc-- I actually like this product. But I probably will not repurchase, either. I am trying to simplify my skincare routine.

 

I used up sample size of

Origins Make A Difference Hand Treatment-- I like this a lot. A great hand cream.

 

Aveeno Absolutely Ageless Restorative Night Cream-- It makes my face feel super soft. But it is too bad that the scent is too strong. 

 

Have a great weekend, Beauties!

Happy Friday ladies!

 

This week I used up:

Sample tube of Lancôme Visionnaire Yeux Cream (0.101 Oz.) — would buy in regular size. Melts nicely into face by eyes with minimal fragrance. 

 

Sample Laura Geller Lash Boss Mascara  — darkens lashes, reminds me of UD Perversion or Lancôme Definicils. Brush was plastic with longer bristles on one side & shorter on the other side. Not sure if I would buy a full sized tube. It was OK.

 

Tube of Origins Ginger Souffle Whipped Body Cream (1.7 Ozs.) — part of a 3 pack I had gotten over a year ago from Origins. I liked the scent & how this body cream felt on hands, legs & feet. Definitely would buy a regular sized tube or jar of this.

I tossed two things this week:

 

Milani Conceal & Perfect Foundation: found out the hard way that, though it's a great foundation, I break out from it! Too old to have to battle that problem! 

 

Travel size of the TIGI Bed Head Masterpiece Hairspray: This was a huge fail based on the scent. It reminded me of fruit cocktail. Fine on the lunch plate, not so much on my hair! 

 

See you next week!

1. Didn’t use up, but purchased another tube of my favorite lipstick Lancôme “The New Pink” so I have a backup when it’s discontinued...always happens when I love something.

 

2. Purchased white bobbi pins...bangs finally long enough in growing out process to be quite annoying. Am vowing to learn how to either braid them back & pin or twist back & pin. Searched everywhere & had to order on Amazon.

 

3. Dry body brush by Earththeraputics....long handle type. I had a hand held brush, but needed to get to mid-back, etc.

 

Not an expensive week. 😉

Re: TGIF Beauties! What Did You use Up This Week 3/9?

Happy weekend! Just one thing for me this week:

 

****** + Fab Glycolic pads 60 count- I bought these thinking they might help with my hyperpigmentation and post acne scars. They may have helped lighten the red spots a bit, hard to say if it was the pads or just time. But they left my face feeling very tacky after I used them and it stayed that way all night. I never used glycolic acid before so I don't know if this is normal or not, but I didn't like it at all. I actually ended up using the last dozen or so pads on my neck and chest because I couldn't stand feeling sticky anymore. So I won't repurchase just for that. On a bright note they were very gentle and didn't irritate my skin at all.
