Seeing product empties is so satisfying ๐
Post your weekly, monthly, quarterly, whenever-ly empties and let us know how you felt about them!
Previous Empties thread:
@itsfi I find that regular consumption of ice cream contributes to my overall well-being, lol.
My favorite indulgence @CookieGirl1. Dreyers is known as Edys on the east Coast. I do consider myself an ice cream snob!
I have to look for it next time I go to the store @CookieGirl1. Do you also like just about anything peanut butter?
@CookieGirl1 , I could eat peanut butter sandwiches daily! It is one of my favorite foods. I have found substitutes for when I am watching my weight.
This was a daunting post to make, mostly trying to remember what I thought of all the sample sizes that I used up in my 'fun sized February' (thanks to @ShortErica for the name). This month I had 74 empties, which is great, however I also had 119 purchases. My goal for the year (IIRC) is to have 730 empties, and to have less purchases than empties. So far I'm 128 empties and 193 purchases. This month was a busy month for purchases with two weekend trips so February numbers are a bit off from my normal.
Ohhh, yes!! Fresh caramel lip balm does smell wonderful @missjeanie! Lots of nice products in your empties!
It was a great month of experimenting with products @itsfi . I love trying new products so I really shouldn't ever be buying full sizes. I'm thinking of trying to do another round of mini's sometime again this year. I have no idea where to even start with the mini's of make up products!
@missjeanie, oh gosh, yes, miniโs are great. I love having them to test out a product before committing to a full size. For skincare. my ideal arrangement is no more than 2-4 open full size cleansers and 2 miniโs or deluxe sizes open at a time; 2 open full size essences and 1-2 open miniโs - this seems to let me stick to a solid, fairly consistent routine, all while being able to play with new formulations or other products. For makeup, mini size mascara is the best for me - I donโt think Iโve ever completely used up a full size wand before the expiration date and I always feel bad wasting it. But a mini mascara resolves both those issues. ๐๐๐
It might be too soon but maybe a โMay Miniโsโ would be a good time to start another round of miniโs.
I think May might be a perfect time @itsfi ! I so agree with you about mini mascaras. I prefer a drier mascara so for me I'm pretty much 3 months in with a mini. I always wonder how people use up mascara so fast?
Nice work, @missjeanie - seriously amazing! I love the Olly melatonin gummies, they taste SO good.
We have similar numbers; so far theyโve only gone up, too๐ Hoping to at least end the year under where I started.
@eshoe I typically spend more on beauty in the last quarter of the year, and save the most in the first quarter... so far this year... not so much. lol I'm hoping I can buckle down a bit and even it out more before the year end... even if only by one product!
@lmaster I'm no longer pregnant. Finished the vitamins anyway before going back to my regular ones.
So many empties, @missjeanie! Wow, impressive!!
I'm curious about the Skyn moisturizer, is the cooling irritating?
@haleyvvvv Itโs not irritating for me, but Iโm sure it would be for others, and Iโm sure whatever it is that makes the cooling sensation isnโt good for your skin. For me, it just isnโt moisturizing enough and I donโt want to feel cold.
"I don't want to feel cold" - lol, yes @missjeanie, I feel this, especially in the winter. Thanks!
Wow, @missjeanie, that's truly an impressive amount of empties/samples!
Lol @CookieGirl1 @it was very satisfying seeing them all together. I felt accomplished going through them.
