Empties - 2019

lmaster — Sat, 01 Dec 2018 04:12:19 GMT

@scott1201 just finished this tonight. it lasted about a month. honestly didn't see any results worth buying the full-size. so I'll keep searching for the perfect eye serum for fine lines and wrinkles.

@lmaster 😞 I haven’t tried that one but now I can mark it off my list!

@ather I used points in the bazaar a few months ago and got the three piece retinol set, it came with Murad retinol moisturizer, which I liked ( still not enough to purchase) this eye serum and a retinol serum( this is more of a cream consistency) the serum smells so good, but I don't like how it feels in my skin. So this line by Murad was a meh

@lmaster Darn. I’ve been on the search for the perfect eye cream as well but nothing beats what I’ve been using. I’m always disappointed.

@ather may I ask, what are you using?

Re: Empties - 2019

ather — Fri, 10 Jul 2020 08:42:47 GMT

@lmaster my favourite is iI’ve seen noticeable improvement while using it and my second favourite is SHISEIDO - Benefiance WrinkleResist24 Intensive Eye Contour CreamiI’ve seen a difference with this as well but every now and again it makes my eyes water.

@ather I've never used the night repair eye serum! That will go on my list 😍I have a few ds samples I want to get through, then I have to try it! Thanks so much 😊

@lmaster I also bought bbut haven’t tried it yet. I got it a few sales ago. I thought my little container would be empty by now.

@lmaster It’s funny before I bought the kiehls I went through my box of samples looking for eye creams and I had none. And I have a pretty big box lol

You know what @ather I really loved the but I've been debating on buying the FS because of the price... But I bet the eye serum is good too! Well... Now i have 2 on the list!! 😂😂

I was on a mission to use up some foil samples this month:

This Bath & Body Works candle is one of my absolute favorites! These were the best empties of the month.Meh.

I used some stuff this week.

💗

Love everything here. The sample was DE Virgin Marula, which I use to make Protini Smoothies for my skin as a sleeping mask. I would have purchased the Tatcha Pearl during the sale, but this sample lasts forever and I have three more, yay!

Good

I’ve been wavering on these eye makeup remover pads for awhile now as they are a little on the dry side. I was fed up with the cotton pads I was using but now that I’ve discovered why everyone loves the Shiseido ones, I am going back to micellular water for now. The Cicaherb mask was fine but I prefer Mediheal’s Cica mask over this one. The Skyn primer is great if you are looking for something without -cones. I had a backup that opened from the sealed part in the fridge, now I am thinking I will have to toss it as well. I liked this Tata Rejuvenating Serum, but it didn’t seem to do much for my skin. The fresh Vitamin Nectar Moisture Glow Cream was great, but I think the Origins Night-a-Mins is very similar and cleaner.

Nothing terrible here, but nothing I would repurchase, either. The Ariul Juice Cleanse Mask as well as the Oozoo were the least favorites of these particular lines of masks. The Raspberry Lentil Juice Cleanse and the Rose Capsule Oozoo masks are amazingly awesome!

Nope

The hourglass was awful for me. I could not get it to work, even with different primers.

The Pacifica Sparkling Star Passionfruit was my 8 year old daughter’s. She confided in me that she can’t wear it anymore as she was wearing it the day her ‘boyfriend’ broke up with her and it makes her too sad😂. I bought her the By Rosie Jane Discovery Set at the last sale for Christmas, hope she finds something cheerier!

@CookieGirl1 Wow good job!! I have a box of foil samples but I’m always so scared my face will go on strike if I try a bunch at once. Did you have any issues when trying them?

Re: Empties - 2019

ather — Fri, 10 Jul 2020 08:41:38 GMT

@eshoe I purchased the as soon as it came out and I love it. I’m not even a quarter through my jar. You really only need the smallest amount.

Re: Empties - 2019

CookieGirl1 — Sat, 01 Dec 2018 19:16:28 GMT

@ather A lot of them were actual haircare foils because I've been having hair struggles lately and this was a good way to use up samples while trying to find something new that might agree with my hair :(. As for skincare, I guess I'm lucky in some ways because my skin is honestly incredibly resilient and I can use literally ANYTHING and everything without even questioning whether or not it might cause me any problems. On the flip side--maybe because my skin IS so resistive--it takes a lot for a product to really work/be effective and wow me.

Re: Empties - 2019

ather — Fri, 10 Jul 2020 08:41:22 GMT

@CookieGirl1 aww I guess it’s good and bad then! Have you tried the on your hair? I got a sample in my last order and fell in love with it. As soon as my sample is done I will repurchase the full size.

ooooo you love that candle?? @CookieGirl1 I just bought i...
