@ather Great job! At least you know there are better items out there and you did not waste 😊

[ather]

@Mellmars1185  I agree!

Always good to work through full size products @ather! Now I'm curious to know what your favorites are in both these categories?

[ather]

@itsfi  I agree. Not bad. I enjoy both but my favs in those categories are Rhode peptide glazing fluid and Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask + Moisturizer

I like how the Rhode makes my skin look and feel! Moisturized! And I like how jet leg makes my skin so plump. It also absorbs better in my opinion! 

What are your favs in those categories?

[itsfi]

So sorry I'm just now getting back to this @ather. Meant to respond earlier and then I forgot which thread this was in. Let's see, for serums, I really like the EADEM Milk Marvel Dark Spot Serum with Niacinamide and Vitamin C 1 oz/ 30 mL and the Rhode Glazing Fluid - in fact, the two combined make quite the dynamic duo for me. 💖 

Oh, the mask one is a hard one. There are a lot of good ones, wash off and sheet masks, alike. Clarins Cryo-Flash Instant Lift Effect & Glow Boosting Face Mask 2.5 oz / 75 g is a current (and recent) favorite - softening, plumping, hydrating, cooling and some firming too. For pesky pimples, my standby's are innisfree Super Volcanic AHA Pore Clearing Clay Mask 3.38 oz / 100 ml or Tatcha The Clarifying Clay Mask Exfoliating Pore Treatment 1.7 oz/ 50 mL. Sheet masks, so many out there to choose from - most of the Etude 0.2mm Air Therapy Masks are good by me. I'm also a fan of the most of the masks by JMsolution. At Sephora, Dr. Jart+ Ceramidin™ Cream-Infused Mask 0.63 oz / 18 ml is a gift for dry and dehydrated winter-weary skin.

@itsfi  I do love a good dynamic duo!!! Sounds like the Eadem and the Rhode are perfect! 

The Claire’s cryro mask is on my next list to buy! But I need to get through what I have first! I do love the innisfree Super Volcanic AHA Pore Clearing Clay Mask 3.38 oz / 100 ml  I have one that’s a backup to my other clay mask! That reminds me I need to do a clay mask soon!!! I also did a sheet mask the other night and I was looking at the JM Solution ones I had in stock and I agree they are in my favs!

I agree, now that they have been finished I hope that you'll have fun with some thing better. 😉💕 @ather Great work!

[ather]

@CynthieLu  Thank you! I agree 100%

[caitbird]

@ather  great job! At least now that you've gone through these you can move on to favorites you like better?

[ather]

@caitbird  I agree! Opens up space for more loves!

[lmaster]

@ather those are good size products, good job!

[ather]

@lmaster  Thank you! I feel like I’m slow and steady! 

[Cissy63]

@ather  Too bad they were a bust.  ☹️

[ather]

@Cissy63  You can’t love them all! But also it’s good to try everything once! 

[Samtian]

@ather Great job! Bummer they weren't that great.

[ather]

@Samtian  I agree! But I like what I like 😁

[lnum]

Very behind on posting these! 

 

 

 

 

These are mostly products part of my routine I quite like. I did not like the strivectin toner, freck beauty toner, and I hated the Missha chogongjin mask but I think that’s because I didn’t realize it’s one of those masks where it’s a sheet mask with cream on it. I hate those!

[itsfi]

Seeing all these skincare empties makes me happy @lnum! Excellent work! I love that you use your products and work your way through them.

I had a good chuckle with your sheet mask empties - first, I love the sheet masks with a cream on it; they're so good to my skin in the winter months. I think our skin types are different that I can see those types of masks not being favorites of yours. My skin is more combination in the summertime (dry cheeks but generally oilier everywhere ese) and it doesn't like cream sheet masks. Also, even with this being a catch up post for you, I do think you may have used more sheet masks that I did. lol  This summer, I did a little sheet mask experiment and maybe used one once every 4-6 weeks, if my skin was feeling a need for hydration or I was traveling for work. My skin did really well with rotating in sheet mask with less frequency.  

[lnum]

@itsfi I definitely have combination oily skin but something about placing a sheet mask on my face with a cream on it feels like I’m pressing butter all over my face and I hate that 😂. That’s so interesting, so what do you do after your exfoliation? I tend to alternate between baby facial and a clay mask every other week and I always use a sheet mask after, that’s why I end up using one per week. 

Sometimes getting through the products takes forever…there are a few I am going to declutter soon because I have to give up on them!

[caitbird]

@lnum  awesome job! You got through a ton of skincare products!

[lnum]

@caitbird Thank you! I do wonder sometimes how my one face finished all those products. 😅
