@Samtian Excellent work. That was nice of you to give your Mom the PT palette. Great idea to us the concealer sample as an eye base! Oh no - the PMG lippie won't open?!? That would be frustrating.

[Samtian]

@Mellmars1185 Thank you! She likes playing in makeup so she is always happy to get the things I give her. I rarely wear face products like foundation and concealer so it's a good idea for me to use it was a primer so it doesn't just go to waste. It definitely was frustrating but Mom and I got a good laugh out of it.

@Samtian Great job! Slower months usually mean future bigger months for me with empties. 🙂 

[Samtian]

@QueenMarceline Good way to think of it! Thank you!

@Samtian  great job with empties and destashes! It's always a shame when something goes bad, dries out, etc., but at that point there's no sense keeping it to just clutter up space that could be used for something new and better!

[Samtian]

@caitbird Yep! Ha I'm trying to get away from so much space being used for things I'm hoarding. Gotta cut back!

Gotta love that Ami Cole! It's such a great product 🤩 @Samtian. Good work destashing this month!

[Samtian]

@CynthieLu ah it really is!!! Thank you!

[lmaster]

@Samtian you can't open the pmg??

[Samtian]

@lmaster Nope lol. It's fine I have a mini of it as well.

[lmaster]

@Samtian  that's good! I need to start using my pmg lippies again

The Ami Cole lip oil is so good @Samtian! You are doing a great job this year working through your stash. How's your mom liking the Patrick Ta palette?

[Samtian]

@itsfi Thank you! I'm not sure if she has tried it yet.

Byoma Creamy Jelly Cleanser 
Repurchased already! It’s a great, gentle cleanser.

Tower 28 Beauty SOS Daily Skin Barrier Redness Recovery Moisturizer 1.86 oz / 55 ml 
This was a repurchase and I’ll be repurchasing again after my current moisturizer is finished. I did notice its redness relief this time around. It’s not quite as immediate as the spray or serum but it does eventually help skin settle down. They work really well together.

Dove 7-in-1 Miracle Mist
An amazing leave in conditioner that can also double was a weak hold styling product. My hair feels great after using this. It also detangles real well, so I sometimes use it in my girls’ hair too. Already repurchased. 

SEPHORA COLLECTION Bright Future Gel Serum Under Eye Concealer
I’m sad to see this go. There’s only a handful of shades and it’s marked down to 50% off, so my guess is it’s being discontinued. 

SEPHORA COLLECTION Retractable EyeBrow Pencil - Waterproof 
A repurchase. So many shades and so effective at its job. I’ve heard it’s comparable to pencils from Benefit.

Aveda scalp solutions overnight scalp renewal serum trial size
Pleasant and definitely helped in keeping my scalp hydrated. I have other things I’m using so I won’t be purchasing a full size. 

[Mellmars1185]

@JoSometimes Great empties! I am glad the T28 products work so well for you. I really need to give their skincare a try.

[JoSometimes]

@Mellmars1185 Even if you don’t have sensitive skin, the spray is useful for irritation like bug bites or minor scratches or cuts. And the moisturizer is good for dry skin.

[QueenMarceline]

@JoSometimes Looks like you have a very solid bunch of empties there, all likes/loves! 🙂 Great work!

[JoSometimes]

Thanks @QueenMarceline! There’s usually a bit of research before purchasing to avoid duds or anything that might irritate my skin. 

[caitbird]

@JoSometimes  great job! Nice group of empties, it's great that there were so many loves among them!

[JoSometimes]

Thank you @caitbird! I don’t usually buy things on a whim. I try to do a little research before trying something new. It helps keep me from picking up duds. 

[caitbird]

@JoSometimes  that's a great approach! I feel like I have done too much impulse buying in the past, so I want to try to be more deliberate with my purchases in the future!
