@Mellmars1185, ahhh, thank you.

[Shosh85]

@itsfi  I've been super interested in that Aestura cream ..... good to know it's a ❤️ for you! 

[itsfi]

@Shosh85, it was such a great one; on my list for the spring sale (I know, I'm already thinking about next year and this year's sale hasn't even happened 🙄😅). I just recently finished the lotion version and am trying out the brand's ceramide + hyaluronic acid serum (my skin perks up just hearing those ingredients, ha!) now. Will start testing the popular cream soon and comparing it to my top fall/winter moisturizers.

@itsfi Great job!!

[itsfi]

Thanks @Samtian; slow and steady but we're getting there. I like that I'm on full sizes more; that said, I did recently find a bag of foil samples I did not know I had. 😮🙄😫 Like, how did you get here?!!! 😂

[Samtian]

@itsfi Hahaha! At least foils go fast. 

[itsfi]

Yes, when (or if) I remember to reach for them, @Samtian 😂 I included a couple in last week's makeup capsule and will try to keep one or two in use every week. And of course, I'll try not to forget about them or any new foils that come in. 🙄

[lmaster]

Good job! @itsfi have you stopped using sheet masks?

[itsfi]

@lmaster, thank you. Just trying to keep at it, and not bring in more than I've used up; you know how it goes. Nope, I haven't stopped, but not daily sheet masking like before.

@itsfi I'm using everyone's posts lately to curate my sale list... Just added the Glossier Boy Brow on there.  I haven't had one in a while and I miss it. 

Must read your thoughts on the hair gloss mask showdown as well.  I have one I haven't tried yet that I should pull out.  

[itsfi]

That’s a great approach @missjeanie! Seeing empties and hearing/reading details about the items is helpful. I’ve been surprised by how many times I’ve repurchased Boy Brow over the years; wouldn’t have thought it’d be one of my all-time most repurchased products. It’s easy and effective and that counts for a lot in my world. 😂 

[ather]

@itsfi  Wow amazing job! I have a sample of the Moroccanoil High Shine Gloss Mask I keep meaning to try it and now I am so excited to try it. The Cay skin lip spf is my fav especially in the summer and I can’t leave the house without my Touchland Power Mist Hydrating Hand Sanitizer it is so convenient and good!! Especially during the cold and flu season!! 

[itsfi]

Thank you @ather! Definitely give the Morrocanoil shine hair mask a try. My fave is the Kérastase Chroma Absolu High Shine Gloss Treatment for Color-Treated Hair 7.1 oz/ 210 mL but the Morrocanoil is a good one, too! I try to time it so that the effects of the mask fades out around the time of my hair color appointment, so I feel ike I'm getting the most of my money out of both. 😂 Could all be in my head. 

[ather]

@itsfi  Oooo I still have that Kerastase high shine!! I need to try to work it in my routine again! I have been falling off the hair care wagon and I need to get back on it. 

[itsfi]

@ather, I’m sure your hair care routine is solid, just maybe different than what it was before? That would make sense. Your hair person has complimented your hair so what routine you’re using right now is good for it. 

I feel like mine (my hair care routine) ebbs and flows. Or I get sidetracked with something else. But it has been so much better than it ever has been, in that I actually have a routine and am more consistent with it. 

[ather]

@itsfi  It’s good to be more consistent! I agree. I need to work on that! I think my hair is better because I’m not bleaching much anymore! So I think it’s getting healthier!! I need to work on using more masks tho. I will shop my stash and start using them!! 

[dinadore]

I don't like it when most of my skincare products run out at the same time. It's terrible. I recently found Barbizon Modeling School  and have been thinking about starting modeling as a hobby for a long time. I decided to practice a little at home and do some back makeup. Then I realized that I had run out of a lot of cosmetics. and it's so sad. Now I have to spend a significant amount of money at once

@lmaster  Why does this post make me hungry? Haha 😅 Nice job!

[lmaster]

Haha!! I feel you! @Shosh85 thanks lovely

[Mellmars1185]

@lmaster Fantastic empties! The pistachio candles sounds like it would smell amazing. I am interested in trying the brand Osea. What kind of product did you use up from that brand? I am interested in the body oil. Great declutter!
