Hi Friends,

Used up:

Trader Joe's Coriander Body Butter- nice, replaced with Trader Joe's Orange Spice Body Butter from the stash.

How about you?

Have a good weekend. Be well all!

@kathie66 my best friend just gifted me Trader Joe's Brazil Nut Body Butter for my birthday in June. 

Im usually a Josie Maran Body Butter person. I have two big tubs to go.

I was going to wait to open the TJ Body butter but i couldnt wait. oh my god!! This is the RICHEST cream and im usually an unscented person but this smells SO good..

The tub has a unique flip top lid so that when your hands are all moisturized from applying, all you have to do is flip the lid closed. Genius. 

I cant wait to dig in to this.

Hi @kathie66 

This week I used up:

2oz tube Elemis Pro-Collagen Energising Marine Cleanser.  I liked this fine, just going through my stash.  Replaced with 2 oz tube of SKINN PM Cleanser.

Paula's Choice - 2% BHA treatment. Won't replace, using other things now

L'Oreal True Matchh Foundation - tossed because it wasn't the right shade and too late to return.

TARTE - blush and bronzer cream combo.  Tossed.  I tried so hard to make this work and it just wouldn't last on me.  Within an hour, it looked like I had nothing on.  So out it went.  Bought it quite a while ago so couldn't return.

Clinique take the day off cleansing balm-I really liked this balm for removing makeup. I will be using SKINN PM to remove face makeup.

Clinique makeup remover for lids-I liked this but not as much as the Garnier micellar water

Garnier micellar water-a favorite for removing eye-makeup. Received replacement today.

@LizzieInSRQ So glad you are happy with it! I also have the Brazil Nut Body butter in the stash waiting to be opened, it is calling my name. T.J.'s had the scrub, body wash, and candle in the Brazil Nut scent if you are interested, the scent is so nice. Enjoy!

Hi beauties.  I used up:

Argan hair mask.  It was a huge sample, made my hair feel great.

BBW small hand sanitizer.  From my car.

Gifted.  A 2oz new bottle of snow angel perfume from the stash.  

I think I have to check out more TJ beauty items.  I heard their seasonal items are well liked by many here.  

Have a good weekend!

Hello Beauty Friends!

Not much for me this week, just a Drunk Elephant sample of Moisture and Retinol serum. I liked these very much, but have much to use up before I purchase yet more skincare!

Be well and stay cool!

Let's see now...

Naturium - Quadruple Hyaluronic Acid Serum 5%

Replacing with Paula's Choice Hyaluronic Acid Booster

Naturium - Plant Ceramide Rich Moisture Cream.

I was only half-way through the jar but threw it away.  I didn't care for it; it didn't wear well under make-up.

Naturium - Multi-Peptide Moisturizer

Replacing with Paula's Choice C5 Super Boost Moisturizer

I think that's it!  It's been a doozy of a week at the office, so I'm thankful I can remember that much...LOL!

My used up and/or pitched List is much shorter than my purchase list this week. 🤪

Korres Donkey Milk Serum - I have liked using this but I feel it’s a bit redundant and not really necessary, since some of the same ingredients are in other products.  I’ve been on an A/S plan but HSN doesn’t even stock this anymore so it’s uncertain if they would be able to fulfill any further shipments anyway.  And with the Korres fiasco that happened a little while back, I’m not sure I trust them anyway. I’m moving on.

Milani Make it Last Setting Spray - replaced with the same from my stash

Vie Beauti Lash Serum - replaced with the same from my stash 

Too Faced Eye Shadow Insurance - had another on hand

ETA - returning the Physicians Formula Taupe Lip Cream I bought yesterday.  Another hideous looking shade.  I have the worst luck with these neutral lippies.

Nothing I can think of!

I did look at a little jar where I decanted the end of "something??", not very long ago, probably last month, and put it into an empty Josie Maran tiny body butter jar to use the rest of it. Must have been something I coveted to do that. Coveted so much I can't, for the life of me, think of what it is?!! 🤣😜

I smelled it, looked at it's pearly white, almost translucent consistency...thought about hair products I finished, because it looks like hair conditioner, but none got emptied recently!

Looks like this willl be tossed unless I figure it out. 

My memory usually isn't this bad...but complete brain lapse on this one!

On that note~Happy weekend, y'all. 😎

Rainy here (again!!) in CT...supposed to be all wknd....we'll see, and hope for the best.

***Update: I think I figured it out!! A few wks ago I finished a tube of "bain de terre" blow-out bodifier for my hair! I don't blow-dry my hair, but use this for a smoothing cream that does add some softening & body. I'm sure I cut open that tube & cleaned out every last bit. This IS coveted now as I believe they stopped making it. When I went to repurchase it was nowhere, but luckily one brand new tube on Ebay! I snapped it up. I only need to wash my hair once or twice a wk, and only use a dime sized bit of this, on wet hands, each time. That last tube lasted me about 4 years! So that's what this is. Ok, end of story.
