I know we all talked about this but I need it in writing to hold myself more accountable! I have picked out around 28 foils that I am hoping to get through by the end of Feb. that’s 1 foil a day unless I decide to stack more than one! Here’s what I’ve picked randomly!

Thank you @ather! I'm happy that the Eadem serum doesn't seem to have any negative skin results so far. Will let you know how it goes. The brand launched its first product, this serum, at Sephora in late spring 2021. They have a highly curated selection of products - serum, moisturizer, and cleanser. They also have a spatula for scooping out the moisturizer.

@itsfi Beauty line up! I need to go choose my March foils now too. I'm curious to see how you end up liking the Eadem!

itsfi · ‎03-04-2023

It'll be fun to see your foils for March @missjeanie. I'll keep you posted on the Eadem - good news is that there's been no irritation or skin sensitivities to it so far.

February Foils - My goal was to finish the 19 I picked out in mid Feb. I managed to finish them and a few others throughout the month for a total of 32.

CynthieLu · ‎03-04-2023

Way to go! 🙌 That's an incredible amount to finish in a month 🥳

Hummm, do you remember what you though of KEYS? @Mellmars1185

They are always coming up on the Rewards bizarre but I don't have much experience with this brand.

Mellmars1185 · ‎03-04-2023

@CynthieLu Thank you. I liked the KEYS cleanser. It had a mild scent to it and left my skin feeling clean. From just trying a few foils, I can't really get a sense of how it impacts my skin.

CynthieLu · ‎03-04-2023

I had a foil by them too @Mellmars1185 but I didn't get a good sense of the brand either. I'm really hoping SuperGoop or Glow Recipie come back to the Rewards Bazaar 🙏

missjeanie · ‎03-03-2023

Holy Hannah @Mellmars1185 ! Talk about a foil Queen! Did you find any new or old faves?

Mellmars1185 · ‎03-04-2023

@missjeanie Hehe, it was a month like no other for me. I liked both large sheet faces masks. The Eve Lom Cleanser made my skin feel really smooth. I liked the end result of the Dr.Barbara Sturm enzyme cleanser. I used it too frequently, though, so I got some irritation.

Nice work on your February foils @Mellmars1185! Is that the Augustinus Bader Soothing Cream near the top left corner? If so, how was it?

Mellmars1185 · ‎03-03-2023

@itsfi Thank you. Yes, that is Augustinus Bader Soothing Cream. I remember that I liked it and that it felt luxurious and made my skin feel really good. I wish I had more feedback. I went through so many. I should take note. I remember talking about a skin journal before. That way I coule remember which samples I like and don't.

Sorry to have used my Pan It Challenge photo, I grouped everything togeather instead of separating it into different shots. ( me = lazy 😅) I will be better next time 🙏

I'm so happy to be using my pile of foils, and not having them looming in the back of my mind 🙃

This challenge is so great!

missjeanie · ‎03-03-2023

@CynthieLu Agreed, isn't this a fun challenge!!! Did you find a new fav in the bunch?

CynthieLu · ‎03-04-2023

I liked alot of it @missjeanie 😅

There were some great hydrators in there. I don't know if any knocked my regulars out of the running, but there were some serious contenders.

Dr.Jart is soo fabulous. And I'm not surprised say Pink Cloud and Olehenriksen were so nice to use 😍

I'm happy and very lucky to say everything pictured was dud free 😋

itsfi · ‎03-02-2023

Nice work on your foils @CynthieLu! 👍🏼 Your pic looks fine as is - you can see all your foils! No need to separate them unless you want to. I spy a lot of KBeauty products - love!! 😍

CynthieLu · ‎03-02-2023

@itsfi yasss I loove k-beauty 💕 like Dr Jart 🤩 Alot of them just work sooo nicely on my skin.

The hard part is reading them lol and the instructions, but they are usually good about using pictures for instructions too 😋

Mellmars1185 · ‎03-01-2023

@CynthieLu So many foils! Great progress for February! I see lots of face masks. I want to sheet mask more often.

CynthieLu · ‎03-02-2023

Sheet mask and relax is a total motto lol @Mellmars1185 it's sooo soothing 💗

Mellmars1185 · ‎03-02-2023

@CynthieLu Great motto. It is like one of those "Stay Calm and _______" quotes!

Final tally for my February foils - 32 foils, 24 sheet masks, 1 peel off mask, 1 neck mask and 1 foot mask. Of the 32 foils, 22 were of products that I've used before. Of the 10 new-to-me foils, 4 were hair care items and the remaining 6 were skincare treats.

I'd happily use any of these hair care products again, with the most liked being the Verb shampoo & conditioner and the Kerastase overnight treatment.

I have full sizes of the Chanel and Charlotte Tilbury base products and the Guerlain L'Or primer is always a lovely one to use.

Loved products from this group of skincare beauties include the Sulwhasoo, Algenist and Skinceuticals goodies.

And, now for the sheet masks - I wasn't able to do a mask-a-day but it's all good as my skin got what it needed - hydration, added moisture and a few days off from sheet mask to allow any irritation it was experiencing from the weather or allergies to heal.

The Mediheal D.N.A. Protein Mask is a forever favorite - loved having a pack of 10 of the cream-essence-filled-mask on hand.

All four are repurchase-worthy.

The foot mask is the standout from this bunch, both for the soft and moisturized skin that resulted from using it as well as the much needed unwinding time it provided.

February was a good month for foils for me and my foils stash is in a better place now that it's been whittled down even more @ather. March will not include a foil-a-day target but I do have some foils I have set aside to use up and will post those here later this week.
