@amyb Maybe try eBay, a little better price. My 4 oz, lasts so long. Last purchase, I split a 4 piece with 2/4 oz hydroshield with a coworker. It was perfect for us.

Never sure eBay is new inventory. ...though I've bought some discontinued hair products there, a couple times.

This was a 4 oz, did last me long, and I use it everyday. Lasted most of this year. I've had my eye out for sales, as I knew I'd be getting to the end soon. I can use the travel sized one in a pinch, but really would rather save it for travel. I think that one is 2 oz...it's not tiny.

I'll keep my eyes out. Sometimes if DD has a TSV Q will put some things on sale, or on a beauty day or something. Also I get emails from DD's site, but her weekly deals are rarely on her best sellers...always something I don't use. I keep my routine as simple as possible.

Tks for the suggestion!

I never seem to use up anything! I am ALMOST finished with a sample tube of Lancer polish and Korres scrub. Makeup lasts forever. In fact, I am ready to toss my OLD Bare Minerals eye shadows in pots. I have been using LWYA shadow sticks and RMS luminizer for shadows. Much better on my aging eyelids.

@bargainsgirl I feel you~same with me.

I put on a face of makeup everyday, even most days if I'm only going to be home too...though some days I give my skin a rest. That said...palettes and compact makeup (Balance & Brighten, Blush & Brighten, etc) last me forever.

I'm still using a Bobbi Brown eyeshadow palette I got about 6 or 7 years ago...almost everyday! The colors I use most are wearing down, and I do keep meaning to replace this everyday, neutral/pinks/pastels palette, with one from a few other brands LG, and others I've seen online, but haven't yet.

I also have several pots of Bare Minerals from 20 years ago! Occasinally I'll use the Mineral Veil (but I have so many other sheer everyday finishing or foundation powders in compacts I use more), or I'll use one of the eyeshadows, maybe a couple times a year. They never stay on all day, or give me much impact....I really should go through them all in the new year and get real with myself about what I need to actually keep there! I have dark liner colors....I honestly don't think I'm ever going to play around with those to "line my eyes" or give myself a more dramatic look. I rarely do much dramatic lining anymore and when I do, my pencils work fine for me.

I'm telling you all this, but actually talking myself into purging these by talking it all out here, lol.

I used up a travel size of Kilian Princess (black) and a tube of Cosrx Rice Overnight Spa Mask. I have already opened my new bottle of Princess and won't be repurchasing the Rice mask.

Finally tossed, yesterday, that very old Laura Geller Blush & Brighten, in Berry, I mentioned getting to the bottom of a wk or two ago. I kept swiping it yesterday and realized nothing was really going onto the brush anymore or my face. Done. As I said before, I don't see it anymore on her site, only a Raspberry, which doesn't quite look the same, but I'll check it out better. For now, as I also said...I have a few other shades of pink, one warmer I use in summer, one in her softest pale pink (I'm forgetting all the names), that I use on days I'm only wearing light makeup.

I also have some Berry in a LG palette I have. So I'm good for now.
