Hello Everyone!

This week I used up:

-Lancome Lip Lacquer in #356 will not repurchase. I am getting away from a red lip. If I do a red lip it is a gloss only.

-Maybelline Lifter Gloss in Moon, replaced with the color Stone.

-L'Oreal Brow Lamination, didn't hold as well as expected and have replaced with ELF's Brow Lamination Gel, which seems great so far.

 

Tossed:

-MAC Blush in Melba, hit pan on this ages ago then wasn't reaching for it much anymore.

 

Enjoy the weekend!

Re: What did you use up this week? 12/19

I have a beef with companies who use solid containers and you have no idea when you're running out. DRMTLGY does this, my MERIT has a solid bottle for their Priming Moisturizer.

 

I have used DRMTLGY SPF for about 2 yrs. and always have to purchase a few extras because of the solid white container. I'd love a clear strip on these to show how much is left.

 

Anyway, DRMTLGY had a 30% off sale on their site and I purchased 2 sunscreens (untinted) and their Vit. C to store in the frig. as an extra.

 

Skinceuticals used to be my "go tos", but their Vit. C E Ferulic price now is $185 (?!?!) and the suncreen I used is now $72! Wearing it every day, it's used up before the month is over. 

 

Happy Holiday to everyone!

Hi beauties.  I used up:

 

Suave advanced therapy lotion.  SO uses this daily, I had a huge replacement bottle. His skin is so dry.  

 

Colgate max.  Replaced with a crest from the stash.  

 

Tossed a LG lip crayon.  It kept breaking.  Color was Guava.  

 

Wishing everyone a great holiday, however you celebrate.

Good morning Beauties! 

Here's my list for the week ~

 

Pitched some more random stuff.

 

Perlier Black Rice Flash Effect Eye (single) - I bought this small size for travel and continued with it.  Used it up.  Opened a triple size. I have several in my stash that I’ll continue to use before I switch over to the Wellage in my eye area.  I have experimented with the Wellage there and it’s fine.

 

Perlier Black Rice Night Contour Eye - i used it up and am moving on from this one.   

 

Fleur de Lis Rice Enzyme Powder - this was the first enzymatic rice powder I discovered when trying to dupe Tatcha’s years ago.  I’ve used it off and on since then but have used others too.  I used up my current jar and will start using the one I recently bought by Good Molecules.

 

Beauty Sponge - pitched one and replace with one from the stash.

 

NIRA Pro Laser Device - it was supposed to arrive Saturday but got stuck in Indy due to weather.  After I placed the order I regretted it and decided the device really wasn’t for me. It finally arrived Tuesday.  On Wednesday it was back in the mailbox for pickup.  I did not open it.  I wrote Refused - Return to Sender on the label.  That way, I didn't have to pay for postage.

Re: What did you use up this week? 12/19

Used up Skinn Age Reset Serum & the PM Cream for my PM regime. Replaced by something new for me - the Beekman RX serum and cream. Bought them recently during the recent holiday sales/promos, highly recommended by some reliable Beauty posters. I've used many Beekman products for over 5 years and they are all effective. Happy that they offer good values throughout the year during TSV, TS and their own website events. 

 

I like to alternate using a couple of different products (serum/cream "systems") for both AM and PM, but for a couple of weeks I will only be using the Beekman RX system for PM.

 

I've become a big fan of the Elemis line, started using about a year ago. There have been some excellent TSV's which makes it affordable and competitively priced. I have the recent Elemis TSV in my stash, it has both AM and PM creams.

 

I also tossed a couple of the Tweak'd shampoo/conditioners big bottle TS sizes. Have several different scents/formulas and the ones I tossed were near to the end of bottle.

 

Have an awesome weekend ðŸ’–💋

A L'Occitaine travel sized Shea Butter Body Cream.

Nice rich cream. L'Occitaine is a pricier brand, but have always liked their products. Used to get large sized, shea butter hand cream of theirs on QVC, and on my always dry hands, worked really well, as many just don't last. *Update...I see QVC still sells it...may have to treat myself!

 

This bottle was plastic, and it was hard to get all the product out, which was a waste. It just stopped coming out no matter how I squeezed, shook the bottle, kept it upside down for days. I had to poke a stick into it and try to decant some of it, which I did, but some was left inside. Oh well.

 

That's all for this week! Happy almost weekend.
