@haleyvvvv Yes they were! Thankfully I had used a few of the pokemon masks last year. Thank yoU!

[RGbrown]

@Samtian 

I went through all of my masks not too terribly long ago, and was a bit appalled to find some with exp dates as far back as 2017. 😵

But, exp dates are really just arbitrary numbers, especially for something like a mask that's sealed airtight. Don't be afraid to open em up and give em a whirl...if they smell fine and feel fine and otherwise seem fine...go for it! I've used quite a few expired ones with no issues, and have only had to toss one that seemed off so far. 

If anything, at least don't waste the biobelle 💕 🤣🤣🤣

[Samtian]

@RGbrown Awe dang it! I had already tossed them after the photo. 

[lmaster]

Awwww @Samtian that's so sad about your face masks 😣 but you did find them!!

[Samtian]

@lmaster Thank you, thankfully not all in the box were expired!

[lmaster]

@Samtian I think I'm going to have to go through my stash again and sort them all by expiration date, I did pull out the ones that expire this year, but more have been added 🤦💋

That’s a LOT of empties, nice work @Samtian! What is your favorite Dr. Teal’s?

[Samtian]

@eshoe Thank you! I haven't found one quite yet.

weekly trash DISLIKES farmacy brightening mask, dried out too fast as was a harsh removal, the Dr Roebucks and DE c- firma day serum made my skin way too oily LIKES Clinique hydrating jelly and belief Hungarian essence were nice and LOVE all the rest 😍

[jen81]

@lmaster  The Hungarian water essence is so nice. Love how hydrating it is. 

[lmaster]

It is lovely @jen81 that's why I like trying samples, never know what you'll love to you try it 😉

[itsfi]

@lmaster - so many wonderful loves!! The Bioderma micellar water is my favorite! ❤️ Seeing those sheet masks make me happy - great picks there! 🙂

[lmaster]

@itsfi thank you!! I love trying all these different sheet masks! It's so fun and gives me something to look forward to 😉

[cianni]

@lmaster You just reminded me I have a Clinique hydrating jelly lying around somewhere that I should definitely finish at some point 🤔 do you layer it with another moisturizer? I find that it’s not enough for me alone in the winter, but I don’t want it to go bad either 

[cianni]

Thanks ladies for the advice! @lmaster @RGbrown @ShortErica 💕 I actually use two moisturizers on a regular basis anyways because I like my spf to be part of a moisturizer versus a stand alone product (which my skin doesn’t love), so I’ll try to either cycle it in when it gets a little warmer, or maybe use with with an oil. I have some squalane that I’ve been meaning to polish off as welll... with all these moisturizer options you’d think my skin would be better hydrated 😂 

[lmaster]

@cianni  yeah I definitely think it's a product to try, I'm curious about the summer myself

[lmaster]

@cianni  I agree with @RGbrown  it is nice but very lightweight, I would add a thicker moisturizer on top, wouldn't purchase, but didn't hate it for sure

[RGbrown]

@cianni @ShortErica 

Yup, that was me! Even as an oily gal, the Hydrating Jelly wasn't good as a final moisturizer for me. It had to be sealed in with another moisturizer or an oil, even in the summer. It is an excellent lightweight layer of hydration for anyone that may be dehydrated, but it's not really a stand-alone product...it's better at adding a little oomph to a current routine than replacing an existing moisturizer. 😊

[ShortErica]

Was it @RGbrown who posted about this? I bought the hydrating jelly (haven't used it yet) because I do a double moisturizer layer and her review of the product seemed to make me think this was a perfect fit for me. @cianni - I'd put this on first and then a thicker moisturizer on top for winter. Hopefully RGbrown can add her 2 cents since she's used the product. 🙂

[lmaster]

Absolutely @ShortErica  I did like it, just not enough to purchase unfortunately. I typically would like to just use one moisturizer. Now in the summer I may be able to use it alone, but I couldn't tell ya as of yet

@lmaster Awesome empties! Thank you for sharing your thoughts 🙂

Best,
