What an amazing gift, @blackkitty2014 !!!  I am dying to try the F-Balm - Enjoy!!!!

[blackkitty2014]

Thank you so much @Tamara76 ! I love using it with the Glycolic serum. 🙂

@TeamBIC Thank you so much for selecting me for this gratis!  It's an honor and a pleasure.  This is an amazing selection of gifts - and all from great brands!  I am literally looking forward to trying everything!  

My skin has been through a lot this winter as I upped my Retin-A concentration, and integrated a retinol on my upper orbital area.  Let's just say my skin has been a little angry.  These products couldn't have come at a better time.

@DrunkElephant I think I will try Drunk Elephant F-Balm™ Electrolyte Waterfacial Mask 1.69 oz/ 50 mL first since everything this brand creates seems like a winner.  I already use their Drunk Elephant Lala Retro™ Nourishing Whipped Refillable Moisturizer 1.69 oz/ 50 mL and love it.

@Laneigeskin I'm also excited to try the LANEIGE - Hypoallergenic Cica Sleeping Mask.  I really think it'll be just what the doctor ordered.  I've been eyeing it up since it came out.  I already adore LANEIGE Lip Sleeping Mask – Intense Hydration Lip Treatment with Vitamin C Berry and LANEIGE - Lip Glowy Balm - Pear

@firstaidbeauty FAB is one of my favorite brands, so I am thrilled at the opportunity to try FIRST AID BEAUTY - FAB Pharma Arnica Relief & Rescue Mask.  I have a feeling FAB was made for this!  I own too many FAB items to tag!

@algenist Algenist's collagen products have been on my radar for a while, so it'll be nice to have a full size product to experiment, the ALGENIST - GENIUS Collagen Calming Relief.  I wonder if I should use this all over, or concentrate it where I think I need it.

Which brings me to my next point: I'll be interested to read everyone's takes on these items as I would categorize many of these as leave-on/sleeping masks.  This concept is newer to me, and I think I may need some experimentation as to how much to apply, the texture, how long to leave on (like truly overnight, for an afternoon or what), etc.

The SEPHORA COLLECTION - Rose quartz facial massager is a dream come true.  I actually bought one for a friend, so I'm definitely on board with this.  So pretty and useful.  Hello pampering!

I received the Voluspa candle in "Branche Vermeil" which appears to be available in the VOLUSPA - Holiday Nine Piece Votive Candle Setat Sephora.com.  It is described online as a "winter spruce with notes of citron, balsam and sugar."  It is very festive, as well as fragrant.  I'm already missing my Christmas tree, so this'll be the perfect replacement.

Looking forward to sharing my thoughts on all of these generous items in the future.  Thanks again!

Congrats, @greeneyedgirl107 !!!  Enjoy this fabulous skincare gift!💗

@Tamara76 Thank you much!

Congrats on this amazing gratis @greeneyedgirl107!  I can't share any personal experiences with you as I haven't tried any of these specific products, but all are outstanding brands.  I can't wait to read what you think about them!  🙂

[greeneyedgirl107]

@mrsmouse Thanks!  I can't wait to try them.  You see, I was super busy when the package arrived, and was planning a night out so I didn't want to integrate anything new before Saturday.  By the time I was ready on Tuesday, I woke up with a few small bumps on each of my cheeks.  NOW, I have to wait for them to resolve.  IDK where they came from - but it might have something to do with messing up on my BCP, wearing a full face of makeup on Saturday night, etc!  I'm getting impatient!

[mrsmouse]

Totally makes sense @greeneyedgirl107 & I would be getting impatient too.  I think you're smart to wait though because then you'll know the benefits of how each product reacts on your skin.  I'm looking forward to the reviews.  🙂

[greeneyedgirl107]

@mrsmouse I'm glad you agree.

[blackkitty2014]

Congratulations @greeneyedgirl107 . I’m so happy that you got this gratis box too. Can’t wait to hear your thoughts about everything. I’m using the DE for more than a week now. Loving the combo of F-Balm and Glycolic serum so far. This combo will most likely be repurchased once they run out 😍🥰
