@QueenMarceline  Great job!! I rarely save my masks package since they take so much space and get sticky!

[QueenMarceline]

@ather Most of the time, I squeeze out the rest of the serum in the package and put it anywhere I can when I am masking. I chucked most of them but when I remembered and made it a point to save them, I would wipe down the package with some of my purell wipes (which oddly always come in handy wherever my beauty/makeup items are). I was worried about the stickiness factor too when I initially wanted to save them but I think wiping down the packaging before putting it in the empties bin really does the trick. 🙂

@QueenMarceline  That’s a good idea. I use to save the serum but I always forgot to use it so I gave up

Great progress!! @QueenMarceline 

[QueenMarceline]

@lmaster Thanks so much 🙂

@QueenMarceline Great variety of empties! I have the IKEA tea lights also. They come in handy and are a great deal! Look at all of the masking you did!

[QueenMarceline]

@Mellmars1185 Thank you 🙂 I really love those tea lights, they're a constant in my house. They come so in handy especially during the times when we get a big storm and the power goes out  for half a day or so.... so much warmth from those little tea lights. I have little lanterns from IKEA too and they're great to put in there for outdoors during the summer 🙂 so cute. 

[Mellmars1185]

@QueenMarceline Oh yes the lanterns are great. I have a couple but I need a few more!

[QueenMarceline]

@Mellmars1185 Haha, I swear... IKEA is the best.

Starting off the year with a few:

Loved these during the holidays!

Would repurchase (or have repurchased)

Meh

The best: the Em Cosmetics lip cushion in Venetian Rose, the teeny-weeny Rare Beauty blush, and the Philosophy Anti Wrinkle Primer.

Bleh: the Sephora Size Up mascara and the Murad Vitamin C cleanser

@CookieGirl1 Oh man... those candles!  I bet they smelled amazing!

[CookieGirl1]

@missjeanie I loved the Cranberry more but they're both favs 🙂

[lmaster]

Great job!! @CookieGirl1 

[Mellmars1185]

@CookieGirl1 Nice job on the empties! I als have thay Redken hairspray. The Pink Starburst cream looks like it would have smelled good.

[CookieGirl1]

@Mellmars1185 I've used the Redken for years because it has a pretty good hold and geez, those big cans last me FOREVER.  The Starburst lotion really did smell good, too 🙂

[QueenMarceline]

@CookieGirl1 How did you like the Too Faced Hangover Pillow Balm Ultra Hydrating Lip Balm I just got a mini of it at the ULTA BOGO mini sale, hoping I don't regret picking that up. 😂

[CookieGirl1]

@QueenMarceline I hadn't ever tried the original but when the brand launched the new fruit scents I purchased 3 of the 4 on a sale.  TBH, I don't really like the formula much.  I LOVED the scents but I found that they just didn't provide the kind of hydration that I needed; I always have really chapped lips and these just sat on top of my lips without feeling like they were actually doing anything for moisture.  However, I don't think that I've heard anyone say that they didn't like them so I'm definitely in the minority.

[QueenMarceline]

@CookieGirl1 I'll see how they fair. I think I only have the "original" so I'm not sure if that has any scent or not.

[CookieGirl1]

@QueenMarceline I love a banana or watermelon candy scent and so I got those two as well as the mango one.

The L'occitane hand creams are so nice this time of year, @ionianblue!
