@itsfi Ooh fantastic work!! That Nest candle is indeed very pretty! What Touchland scents aren't your fave?

[itsfi]

@Samtian, I've no idea what I'm going to do with the Nest candle but I'm keeping the vessel. 😅 The Touchland Rosewater and Lemon Lime are the two scents that I need a break from much more frequently than others. I am close to using up the rosewater one - I like the smell of rosewater in general but there's thorny scent to it that doesn't always sit so well with my nose. I toss it in my purse once or twice a week, but it's not one that I can just use all the time. That said, thanks to both those scents, I have now increased the number of Touchlands I tell myself I can have in use at any one time. Hahahaha! I know, I know, my way of addressing the scent issue is a smidge unorthodox. 😂 

[Samtian]

@itsfi I'd definitely keep it too! Hey the scent issue, just think of it as research...for science.

@itsfi Ohh I didn’t know rms had a fragrance (looking into now lol).  Love the dr. Jart cream. If it goes 50% off again I’ll definitely pick it up. Great job!

[itsfi]

@BluePaisley, I didn't know either until I was in store. I was looking at other fragrances and ccame across the bottle. Tthe fragrance is a collab with Heretic. You can purchase a sample (for $10) directly through the brand's site. 

Ohhh, the Dr. Jart has become a staple in my skincare collection. It's one of those things that I want to have a tube of in the house at all times.

impressive @itsfi !

[itsfi]

@makeitup305, thank you. It's good to get through products.

[lmaster]

Wow!!! @itsfi you should be proud 🙌

[itsfi]

@lmaster, thank you. I was very happy with working through that large candle and all the skincare. 😊 Fall skincare, here I come!

[CynthieLu]

Your empties this month are so impressive on so many levels. The amounts, the quality and almost everything you finished this was a like or love. @itsfi ❤️ well done!

[itsfi]

@CynthieLu, thank you. I've been trying for a while to get to this place - where the majority of my empties are more loves or likes.

@itsfi Amazing month of empties! I have not seen the watermelon Touchland before. Do different scents come out at different times of the year? Amazing work of getting through so many full sized items! When I am through my current setting sprays the Gucci will be next on my list to try!

[itsfi]

Thank you @Mellmars1185! Touchland Power Mist Hydrating Hand Sanitizer Wild Watermelon is available year-round in all the stores near me, as far as I can tell. I know that a couple of the local stores here have a set of scents that they stock year-round (i.e., lavendar, rosewater, sandalwood, berry, vanilla) and others that they rotate in and out, depending on the season (i.e., peach, mango, beach coco). I'm so happy I'm getting through my full size products and, at least for my skincare, I only have a small handful of products that are open and not actively in my skincare rotation - they're mainly products with actives in it and I have to be careful how often I reach for them, so that's why there are more that i haven't used up ... yet! Yaaay! 

Oh, I wish I knew that about the Gucci mist - I transferred some into a travel size spray bottle for Atlanta; I would have just given it to you to try. I do wish they would make a deluxe sample size for people to try. I get that it would probably not be cost effective for them - the mist on it is one of the great things about it and that may be more challenging / costly to replicate in a deluxe sample size. Stil, a promo gwp would be fantastic! 

[Mellmars1185]

@itsfi Thank you! I will definitely pick up a Watermelon Touchland 🍉 on my shopping trip later this month!

[itsfi]

I'm so excited for your shopping trip @Mellmars1185. That's gonna be some haul post! 😍 

[Mellmars1185]

@itsfi Thank you! I will be a seasoned Ulta shopper now 😆

[CookieGirl1]

You had so many Empties, @itsfi 😲.  You have me intrigued about the Canmake nail product, too--I'm definitely going to look into that so thank you for the mini-review!

[itsfi]

@CookieGirl1, that Canmake nail hardener impressed me; I was not expecting those results. So far, I've been happy with that particular product, and their cream blush (also a surprise hit for me). 

[CookieGirl1]

@itsfi Canmake just seems to have some winners across the board; I very rarely hear anything negative about their products so perhaps I shouldn't be surprised that their nail stuff is good.  Have you tried any of their actual polishes?

[faeriegirl]

Awesome job @itsfi ! I am definitely going to pick up the wellness patches!

[itsfi]

@faeriegirl, thank you. Ooouh, they (the wellness patches) worked for you, too?!! I also picked up the Relax one to try. That @heartsmyface knows her stuff! 😊
