Hi Friends,

Used up:

Lather Bamboo Lemongrass Foaming Body Scrub- this was ok, not a repurchase. Replaced with a Trader Joe's Brown Sugar Scrub from stash.

Roc Deep Wrinkle Serum- I really liked this. At first, the smell was a bit off-putting but after using it for a while I got used to it. I would repurchase this again but have other products in the stash to use up. Replaced with Glow by Dr. Brandt Overnight Resurfacing Serum from the stash.

How about you?

Have a good weekend. Be well all!

Hi Beauties,

Good looks @kathie66  for getting this thread up! 

This week I finished up a Skinn Cosmetics Ice eye depuffer. I have another. It was a two pack. It's ok, but I like Tatcha better. I am replacing that with the Perlier Black Rice eye gelee that Amanda raves about.

This week it really worked on my very puffy allergy eyes! I had to see the doctor because the allergies were so bad! I got laryngitis because my vocal chords swelled. 
But my eyes looked great from that gelee. I must write a review on Perlier on HSN. 

I think that's all.

I will brag that I organized all my makeup in a case this week. It feels good to put it all together. I opened my stash IT Cosmetic bronzer. My stash was smashed. So pizzed!

I didn't trash it because I'm trying to salvage it somehow before purchasing a new one. It was on sale earlier in the week but I didn't need it. I put it in my cart today and when I went to check out at 11:30 PM it was at regular price so I took it out. I'll wait.  The price was supposed to hold until midnight!

You Slow..You Blow...next time I guess.

Have a great weekend.

Hi beauties.  I used up:

BBW Vanilla bean hand soap.  I had another bottle of sugar cookie that I replaced it with.  I think that was from Bed, Bath and Beyond, that closed here recently.  I believe there are other store locations here still open.  Not sure. 

Slow weeks here on things used up.  

Have a a great holiday weekend!  I’m off today, not sure why I’m up so early.  I want Spring.  We get a few days in the 50’s then back to flurries and 35!

@KBEANS   Hello. I'm not familiar with IT bronzer. Is it a powder in a compact? If it is, you can fix it. Use a little bit of rubbing alcohol to mix in with the powder with a toothpick, then let dry. The smell of the alcohol lingers for a little bit, but puts together the powder. I have saved a few compact products using this method.

Look it up on YouTube and you can see a video as I don't remember how much rubbing alcohol to use.

@KBEANS I have done the method @Lisa Y explained in her post. It works! If you can do it outside, this way less mess, and if it's sunny the bronzer will dry quicker with less alcohol smell inside. Good luck if you try it!

@Lisa Y  @kathie66 

Thanks for taking the time to share this information. I will definitely do it. I will also look for the video. 

This is why this thread is helpful and fun.

A few weeks ago, I was annoyed with a post that I'm sure got to others in this group. A person posted a negative comment indicating this was not a viable thread.
It certainly is!

Each and everyone in the group is thoughtful, informative and encouraging. It is certainly one of the best threads I participate in here.

Happy Friday!

Used up:

-NYX Epic Ink Eyeliner. This is a good liquid liner, However, I am past the point where I can really use it. I am much better with a soft liner pencil that I can smudge.

-Two ABH Brow Wiz pencils. I have used these forever, but have switched to an Ulta pencil tht is the perfect color for my brows and has a $6 price tag.

-Neutrogena Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelettes, replaced with same.

Tossed:

-NYX Lift and Snatch Brow Tint Pen. I am not talented enough to make this look like it's supposed to! Too harsh looking.

Be Well and enjoy your weekend!

Good Morning @kathie66 and Beauties!  Thank you @kathie66 for always starting this thread each week.  I love it.

This week I used up:

Paula's Choice: Niacinamide - had another in my stash.  Not sure this does much for my skin.  Going to finish current bottle and then may stop for a while and see if I notice any change. If I go back to it, will look for a less pricey option.

Paula's Choice:  Another PC product - her eye makeup remover.  Have two bottles so replaced with same.  I don't remember buying these so they must have been a gift with purchase type thing.  They are fine but once done with current bottle will probably go back to my favorite eye makeup remover which is from Avon - works great and is less expensive.

Have one other item that is close to being finished so will report on that next week.

Love reading everyone's posts and ideas, etc.  Hope everyone is doing well.  Have a nice weekend!
