Hi Friends,

Used up:

Trader Joe's Almond Honey Body Butter- this was nice. Replaced with Origins Smoothing Souffle from the stash.  I am starting to feel a cold coming on, and this helps.

Sunday Riley Good Genes Treatment- I liked this a lot. Will replace with a serum from the stash. 

How about you?

Have a good weekend. Be well all!

Just a MakeUp Forever Waterproof Lip Pencil. I really didn't like the formula, but used all up because the color was good. Have found a nice color replacement in a Revlon ColorStay Liner.

Have a great weekend!

Our special needs preschool was collecting personal care items for some of our needy families.  I had some items that I used once and didn't like or items that I didn't use at all and don't plan on using.  They include:

Toothbrushes given by my dentist after a cleaning. The heads were too small. Donated along with a value package of toothpaste I purchased.

Bumble and Bumble curling mousse and replenishing spray full size. Used once and didn't like.  Prefer the Seaweed Air Dry cream.   Bumble and Bumble thickening products in sample sizes. Never used. 

Routine shampoo and condition.  Bought to see if it would cut down on hair loss.  After first wash I hated it - hair was too dry.

Philosophy Sweet Fig hand cream- never used.  I have hand creams I like better.

Good morning all.   I hope the weather is not too brutal in your areas.  It is here and more snow on the way.  ENOUGH!!!!!

Used up:

Clinique Wash Off Eye Make Up Remover (I go back and forth between that and the Lancome,  which I just opened).

Paula's Choice Skin Restoring Moisturizer with SPF 50 (LOVE this and have back ups) - I use several sun screens.  I use this on days when I just want to apply one combo moisturizer/SPF.  Other days I'll use a good moisturizer and then one of several sunscreens.  I know they say that sunscreen is your moisturizer too,  but not all feel as nourishing to my skin.   This is a good one.

Hi beauties.  I used up:

OGX coconut oil conditioner.  Opened up a Wen Fall Tuscan pear.  

BBW sunrise woods foaming hand soap.  Replaced with a store brand sugared vanilla bean gel soap for the holiday.  

I hope everyone is getting their Christmas tasks done.  Have a great day.

I can only think of two things this week -

RMS ReEvolve Radiance Locking Primer - used up, replaced with the same.  It’s a nice primer.

Revlon Illuminance Foundation - It’s a nice foundation but I had the wrong color.  The bottle has just been sitting there so I finally pitched it.  I may try again sometime.

Good morning!

A few things this week:

Sephora - A package of the organic cotton square pads.  Love these, they are big and hold up well.  Replaced with same.

LaRoche Posay - Hydrating Gentle Cleanser.  Like this cleanser a lot.  Used it in the shower.  Replaced with Perlier Royal Elixir cleanser.  At some point, will repurchase the LaRoche Posay cleanser.

Korres - Used up the 2oz cleanser and body butter in Vanilla Caramel.  Liked these a lot.  Have so many other cleansers and body butters that I won't be replacing these any time soon.  On a mission to use what I have before buying more.  Think I have enough to last me a couple of years!  LOL  Will replace with something from my stash.

Have a good Thursday!

@JudyL was that Korres from their Advent box with all the different scents?  I just started using the Vanilla Caramel BB, just on my arms since it's so small.  However, I did put the Gardenia BB & Shower Gel as a gift exchange the other day and the BB felt like it was only half full.  So, I ended up adding in some socks I already had (unused of course) and a shower puff and a cute little fabric "basket" to make it seem more luxe.  They did say $10 limit, and I spend more than that, but I'm sure others will too.  

I just can't tolerate gardenia ever since I was young and someone broke a bottle of Jungle Gardenia at church.

Used up:

Rapid Lash Eyelash Enhancing Serum - Replaced with the same

TreLuxe Reflex Curl Styling Serum - Replaced with the same

Tossed:

NYX Thick It Stick It Brow Mascara - Just didn't care for it.  I prefer Benefit's Gimme Brow.  I do also need their Fluff-up Brow wax for hold, so a two-step process, actually 3-step since I use a pomade first. 

Elf Lock on Liner & Brow Cream in Medium Brown 

Maybelline Tattoo Studio Brow Pomade in Soft Brown - I prefer a brow product with a little bit of red/auburn.  I have plenty of brown eyeliners, so no need to hold onto the Elf product.  I do currently use the Tattoo Studio in Auburn, but it is quite difficult to find and also difficult to find in other brands.  Maybelline may have discontinued it.  Amazon doesn't even have it.  I actually have plenty of product but I'm afraid of it drying out.
