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!
@itsfi Sorry to hear about the flare up. I have not reached my goals for July and will probably take a different approach. Using up foils have been more challenging than I had thought.
@itsfi I think you still did great! You had to take care of your skin and make sure the flare up doesn’t last longer! That’s awesome you found a new serum that you love! Do you think you love it more than your current serum? That mask sounds amazing. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
I think 10 is perfect for next month! It’s definitely easier to use foils when you travel! You will do great!!
Thanks so much @ather! I'm really enjoying the serums in my current routine - EADEM Milk Marvel Dark Spot Serum with Niacinamide and Vitamin C 1 oz/ 30 mL followed by Rhode Peptide Glazing Fluid. I don't think I love the Sulwhasoo as much as those two. If I were to pick up a full size of the Sulwhasoo it'll likely be during the fall / holiday sale - that should give me some time to work in and use up some other serums in my collection.
@itsfi That’s a great plan! And probably a hard to beat combo!!
I have a small collection of foils now from various purchases. Finally cracked open a few and tried them out.
First Aid Beauty KP Bump Eraser Body Scrub with 10% AHA has got to be one of THE MOST abrasive products I’ve ever used! It’s incredibly gritty and did a great job filing down some of the rough skin on my arms and back. Managed to squeeze two tries out of this little foil. I’m tempted to purchase this one…
Briogeo Don't Despair, Repair!™ Deep Conditioning Hair Mask did a fine job conditioning my hair. I’ve always been pretty lucky with my hair being nice and soft, so I’m not sure what real benefit I’d get for using this one regularly. Plus, I cut my hair regularly, so any damage doesn’t stick around for long (benefits of maintaining a masc hairstyle 😊). Probably won’t buy unless something drastic happens to my hair. And short hair is economical; I managed to squeeze three uses out of one foil!
@JoSometimes Great job! I have a few foils of the FAB and I’ve been meaning to try it out! Glad you had good results from it!
I’ve completed three more foils. Getting through foils is a dangerous sport cause I end up wanting to buy products. Ha i guess that means they’re doing their job.
The Elizebeth Arden Retinol Ceramide Capsules say they’re a serum but almost feel like a primer. It’s got no fragrance and that dimethicone feel to it where it doesn’t feel like it’s absorbing but just sitting on the skin. It gave me a soft skin effect.
It does say to apply on face and neck at night before moisturizer. I’m not sure I like the feel of this product but maybe I’ll warm up to it if it gives results. I’m not a big fan of the capsules. A pump would be less of a hassle but I do appreciate the pea sized amount being pre measured out. I don’t always get a pea sized amount with a pump. They still seem wasteful but could maybe be useful to pack in a go bag on a short trip.
The Caudalie Reversatrol-Lift Instant firming serum is wonderful! It’s lightweight and has their signature grape leafy fragrance. It absorbed quickly and smoothly and gave me instant plumping results. Another Caudalie product I need to add to my routine. Caudalie Resveratrol-Lift Ultimate Firming Set
The Lancôme Absolue Soft Cream is a medium weight cream with a subtle rosy fragrance. It made my skin feel soooo hydrated and soft. Mega plumped. I have this love/hate relationship with Lancôme where I love the effect most of their products have on my skin (except their makeup remover which stings) yet I somehow established this impression they’re a ‘dirty’ brand, yet I don’t know why😅 Did they do something? I’ll have to research. I do very much like this sample and have this cream on my shopping list for the time being. Lancôme Absolue Soft Cream Facial Moisturizer
"Getting through foils is a dangerous sport cause I end up wanting to buy products." Couldn't have said it any better @heartsmyface! I love being able to try out a product first but my goodness, it's hard not to pick up a full size after trying something out. 🤣 The Caudalie and Lancome sound lovely 😍 Would these be something you incorporate into your existing routine or do you think they might replace an existing go-to product for you?
@heartsmyface Great job! I know what you mean about finding more loves to add to your stash! I don’t know why but those capsules make me think of those bath capsules that were popular in the 90s. I don’t think I’ve ever tried a skincare in a capsule like that. It’s to bad you can’t add the empty capsule to your bath to dissolve so you’re not wasting!
@heartsmyface Nice foiling! Great to know you liked the Lancome cream (minus the brand name 😆). I have that one on my list to use in July. I have never actually tried a capsule.
@Mellmars1185 I’m confident you’ll love it.
yeah the capsules are odd. I feel like it’s perhaps a way to sell less product for more $$$ cause you’d essentially be buying a half full bottle.
@heartsmyface Thanks for showing me. It also makes me wonder with capsules are you getting every last drop out of them unless you cut them open 🤔
JUNE UPDATE: So the goal for June foils was relatively straightforward and simple. Or so I thought. I aimed to work through the 7 foil packets of Youth To The People Triple Peptide Hydrating + Firming Oasis Serum with Hyaluronic Acid 1 oz/ 30 mL that I picked up months ago as part of a promo gwp. Well folks, my simple goal turned out to be an epic fail as far are results go. How many foil packets did I actually work my way through?, you ask? Great question. I finished ... wait for it ... ZERO foils of the YTTP serum. 😩 Do better, Fi; do better.
All that being said, I did use some foils in June. 5, to be exact and these 5 specifically:
I also used several sheet masks but haven't had a chance to take a group photo; they're packed up in one of these boxes... Will try to circle back with info on those another day or may just wrap them into my July foils update at the end of next month. @ather
Foil Goals for July:
The foil packets of the YTTP serum are going into the mix for July, along with the few foil packets I have of Summer Fridays CC Me Vitamin C + Niacinamide Serum 1.0 oz/ 30 mL, which will give me a total of about 10-12 foils as my July foils goal. Fingers crossed folks. 🤞🤞
@itsfi Excellent job. Even though you did not use the one you wanted, there is always the next month! 😊
Thank you @Mellmars1185! I really want to work through the samples I have multiples of, but I seem to go for the tried-and-true ones more often than the new-to-me products. It's a work in progress.
@itsfi I’ve been having the same issue with sheet masks lately. I don’t know what my issue is. I have them placed everywhere I may want to do a mask to encourage masking but then do cream masks instead. ha, thé good intentions are there and that’s what counts;)
ah, you used HG samples! Sometimes you just want to use reliable products:).
I'm impressed @heartsmyface and inspired. 😁 I may try spreading out some sheet masks around the place in the next couple of weeks. I think for me some of it has to do with my skin type changing a bit - it's combo more often now. Still dehydrated with slight rosacea but, at least for the last couple of years, it's not been super duper dry in the fall and winter. We'll see if that keeps up - I'm traveling more and in the office more so all the airplane air and office HVAC may mean drier skin come the cooler season this year. I usually reach for sheet masks more when my skin is on the dry / drier side. Yeah, I've been reaching for more rinse off or overnight masks of late - any ones you've been loving lately?
@itsfi I still think you did a great job even tho you didn’t use any of your YTTP foils! Maybe July will be a better month to use them!! The foils you used sounded so good. I wonder if the eye cream that says butter was thinking more of the texture of melted butter or almost melted butter?
Ahhh, good point about the Klairs eye cream @ather! Smart. I really do like that brand. If only I had more than just this one face - I'd be able to go through more product. 😅
