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!
Thanks, @itsfi! Your "ranking" is helpful. I'm leaning toward Rose since it sounds like it falls in the middle.
@itsfi Those steam masks saved me when I had post travel Covid this month! Such a great product to have on hand.
They are must haves for me @missjeanie. I've also picked up the other "steam masks" from the brand - one for the back of the neck (or it could be used elsewhere too) and ones for the legs. I've used some cooling ones (from a different brand) for the legs also (at the recommendation of @heartsmyface years ago); these one are warming. As I think about it, having both cooling and warming ones on hand (or to use one after the other) would be great.
@itsfi Awesome job! Omg so many of the SC Caffeine eye masks! Hmmm too bad those steamers didn’t live up to the other brand. How often do you use steamers? They feel like such a treat!!
@ather, I really only use the steamers when I'm away from home, so they are a treat. Every now and again, I might use one when I'm home but that's pretty rare. There's a certain aromatherapy component about them that's nice when I'm away. When I have home, I have candles and diffusers so I think that suffices for me.
@itsfi that makes sense! You actually gave me an idea! I have been doing a 30 minute restorative yoga before bed every night and I get using the steamer during my yoga might help me relax. I am bad for checking my phone if it dings. But this would force me to relax! Also I think of not to scented I could bring on the plane with me and I may be able to take a nap!
@ather, oooouh, using the eye steamer masks or even the ones for the neck / legs would be a nice supplement to a restorative yoga session. At first, I wondered about the eye steamer masks since it covers your eyes, but to the extent you did a pose when your lying on your back, that would be a lovely way to relax and unwind. It's like a sleeping mask for the eyes, but there's a light warming effect. Ahhhh! The yuzu scent is the strongest, but they have a chamomile one that is very light and subtle and an unscented version. I would try using them for restorative yoga or when using the PEMF mat but I'm scared I'd fall asleep - hahaha!
The shower steamers are a great treat; I wondered if they'd be gimmicky and I think there's a component to it where it's not a need to have but a nice to have product.
@itsfi Hmmm this is a great idea. Although Friday night I think I fell asleep during yoga woke up in the middle of the night very confused about what happened. Still not sure. It was good tho! Sleeping on a plane is better if travelling with people. Maybe not if travelling alone!
Shower steamers sound like such a treat!! It’s nice to have something special!
@ather, you must have been very tired. Yeah, I don't like to fall asleep when I'm traveling by myself; the Kindle comes in handy to keep me busy. 📚
Here are my foils for September! 14 total. I’m doing good. But I tend to keep finding more hiding around my house!
I enjoyed all but didn't find any loves. I was hoping more for the Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Watch Ya Tone 5% Niacinamide Dark Spot Serum with Vitamin C even with multiple foils didn’t notice any difference in my skin. I have a bunch of the SR good genes but I need to ration it because it makes my skin sensitive!
We twinned it with our foil usage last month @ather! 😀 I've heard good things about the Fenty serum; do you think you needed more time with it? I laughed when I read your comment about finding more foils around your house - tell me about it! I now have two bins - one for the foils I plan to use / try, and another for the ones that will be donated.
@itsfi I don’t know. 🤷🏼♀️ maybe I didn’t use it long enough to get a clear picture but I also didn’t feel wowed either. The Elemis Dynamic Resurfacing Vitamin C Dark Spot Serum 0.5 oz / 15 ml is in my cart for the fall sale. After hearing your praise it’s been on my radar and when I saw it was finally at Sephora Canada I was so happy! 😀
I love that you have 2 bins! So smart! I have bags. I have skincare, makeup, hair, masks and scents. I need to get better at adding the hair ones. Scents are hard for me since my work is scent free. I don’t often go out so I don’t use them as much. The small samples last forever for me. I was giving them away to a friend who loves using scents but she’s declined the last few times. So now they have been sitting. I’ve also been more careful which foils I choose when possible and not choosing scents. But I need a better approach. Maybe another bag for samples I want to donate.
@ather, my hope is that with these 2 bins going is that it'll help me be more mindful of how many foils I actually have; in theory, the bin with the foils I'm keeping and working on using should have more in there (though not too much 😂) and that the donation bin either gets emptied with some frequency or stays on the small / minimal side as far as pieces go. Don't get me wrong, I love sampling things but I seem to accumulate so much and don't realize it as early as I should.
Oh, do you mean the EADEM Milk Marvel Dark Spot Serum with Niacinamide and Vitamin C 1 oz/ 30 mL? I really do love that stuff. I'm getting more into the brand as well.
@itsfi Oooo good to know. I’ll have to check if that is on the Canadian site too. I just vitamin c and dark spot and got super excited!! 😆 ok just checked and I am very sad. It is not on the site. Maybe it will come soon! The resurfacing one s
is the only one on the site right now.
These are the foils from July/August.
I’ve been adding more acids to my skincare and so far my skin is responding well. I only use like once or twice a week to be safe!
I enjoyed all of these. And found a new love in the Benifit brow.
Wow, those are some great products you sampled @ather! Ahhh, the DDG pads - they're marvelous. Ohhhh, does the Benefit brow beat out all other brow products for you?
@itsfi Thank you! I found a pack of the DDG and I finally decided to use them up!
I think the Benefit is better. But I also wonder if it is the mini brush that made it work so well. I need to use up what I have before I buy one but it’s on my list!
Now I'm intrigued even more @ather - what brow products do you have in use and in the queue to be used?
@itsfi Right now I have REFY Brow Sculpt Shape and Hold Gel with Lamination Effect 0.28 oz/ 8.5 mL which I love and I have a back up. I also have MERIT Brow 1980 Volumizing Tinted Eyebrow Gel-Pomade which is good but the Benefit is better. I have the LAWLESS Hold Up Soft Set Creamy Eyebrow Wax and a NYX one open. Too many right!!!! Also I find that samples don’t always preform like a full size. So I wonder if it will preform as well.
