What did you use up this week? 7/12 - Page 2

Hi beauties. I used up:

Cover girl mascara. I usually toss every three months, and missed it a few weeks ago. Replaced with L'Oréal mascara.

Dove antiperspirant. Have a lume open, that I will finish up. Tangerine. The smell is nice, but I prefer my Dove.

Tossed COSRX Niacinamide 15% Face Serum. It was too strong for my skin, even though I had been using a 12% with no issues. My skin became red and irritated.

I also had a problem with the COSRX Snail Mucin 96% Power Repairing Essence and won't be using on my face. I will use on neck and chest. Will not purchase again. It clogged my pores and caused breakouts.

Used up Wen Pom styling lotion. I am trying a new styling cream and so far it's good. I have been using Wen styling cream for as long as it's been offered on Q. But I have moved on from almost all Wen. Down to just auto ship of replenishing mist.

@kate2357 - Oh No! That is too bad that you had such a reaction to the CosRx products. Hopefully, your skin has calmed down by now.

Oh boy, @kate2357, those two CosRx items are staples for me. Most of the time I'm using a lesser concentration of Niacinamide and only bump to the 15% for a boot camp type thing on occasion. The snail mucin essence is a daily product for me. In wonder why they didn't agree with your skin? 🤷‍♀️

I used up my newest DRMTLGY product: the Corrector with spf. It's a wonderful product and I re-ordered the other day when they had a promotion.

I'm on everyone's list to be laerted for sales, etc.

It could just be a combination of those products, higher temps and sunscreen? I really don't know. I had a reaction to the Niacinamide 15% within a couple of days. Backed off using and skin was calming down a bit. Then I started noticing red bumps and clogged pores. My assumption is the snail mucin, along with my regular moisturizer was just too much on my skin right now.
