The Trader Joe’s Thread

[SportyGirly125]

I know we have threads dedicated to specific beauty brands but I didn’t really see one dedicated or updated for all things Trader Joe’s. It could be beauty, skincare, haircare, household or grocery items. Post your finds here so others could be on a lookout of what to find or is newly released at their local store. It could also be something you think people should try. Their beauty section is so underrated and most people don’t even know they have a beauty aisle.  Their candles and seasonal items are amazing and they always have unique snacks.

Finally got my TJ fix. The line to get in wasn’t too long under 10 minutes on a Saturday morning. Found some oldies and new releases.

What are your thoughts on the cleansing oil? Im curious about that one.

@SportyGirly125  I love the rose hand cream! The lovely @itsfi  sent it to me and I use it every night. It is heavenly!!

[SportyGirly125]

@ather how thoughtful of her to gift you the hand lotion. 

[itsfi]

Great haul @SportyGirly125! 😍 Even better that your wait in line was only 10 minutes. I spy some wonderful oldies but goodies and some fun new products! 💗💕

[SportyGirly125]

@itsfi I shopped like I wasn’t coming back for a while and stocked my cart full. 

[SportyGirly125]

I can’t wait till the lines die down or they offer curbside. I have tried to go throughout the day but there is always a line around the corner and I don’t have time to stand in line with 2 kiddos to take care of

@SportyGirly125 @Me too! I want french onion soup and soup dumplings but not enough to go wait on line in the street! I will definitely be happy to have all my staples back when this is over though !

A handful of skincare and body treats, the sugar scrub smells sooooo good.

My daughter has been asking for the macaron soaps, so we are going to give them a try. I did need a toner, definitely not the eye cream or hair mask.

[WhereYouStand]

I love the smell of the grapefruit ginger sugar scrub!!! 

[SportyGirly125]

@eshoe I love the hair mask and the eye cream is great for the price.  Have you tried the microdermabrasion scrub?

[eshoe]

Yes on the eye cream and mist (especially) @SportyGirly125! I was looking at the microdermabrasion but my sister’s skin broke out from it so I’m sitting that one out for awhile. Even though her skin is more sensitive/dry than mine, it’s a sign that it might be too harsh for mine, too.

How is it working for you? I have unopened exfoliating masks as it is, that was another reason I didn’t pick it up. If I could only exfoliate everyday I would love to try it:)

[SportyGirly125]

@eshoe I have sensitive skin too. What I did was mix the microdermabrasion scrub with my face cream and it wasn’t as harsh on my skin. 

[eshoe]

Oh that’s smart, @SportyGirly125. That’s also why I like the Bamboo Booster that comes along with the DE Slaii-it’s nice to be able to control just how much exfoliation you give your skin.

[SportyGirly125]

@eshoe I have it but am waiting for the weekend to try it 

[Ispend2much6]

@eshoe   I have the eye cream on my list! 

[SportyGirly125]

@Ispend2much6 I bought it and have used it a couple times already. It felt moisturizing under the eyes and worked well under makeup. 

[Ispend2much6]

@SportyGirly125   That's really good to know; thanks!

[eshoe]

@Ispend2much6 I guess it’s been selling out, so I’m curious. I tested a little out on my hand to get a feel for the consistency and it seems about medium weight. Maybe the teeniest (and barely noticeable) pale shimmer. Typical scent, doesn’t seem perfumed at all. I never expect big results with eye creams but we’ll see.

[Ispend2much6]

@eshoe   Thanks for sharing the details!

[eshoe]

You’re welcome, @Ispend2much6!
