I’ve been so heavy on my skincare because I started birth control and my skin has been out of control lol, so I have my eye on that Murad Brighten Murad Essentials to help combat these dark spots 😃❤️

If you are looking for a great deal on Murad products @CorneliaS, GMA Deals offers various deals a few times per year. I have been using them for a few years.

[CorneliaS]

I usually order here or even on their own website but thank you for that information 😃🙏🏽

[CynthieLu]

That's a great set @CorneliaS 🤩

[CorneliaS]

Yes Murad all year has great deals on their items! And they really work  Murad Brighten Murad Essentials 

[Saradestin]

@CorneliaS I used Murad in the past and it did a great job, but never forget your sunscreen to maintain the results! 

[CorneliaS]

@CynthieLu  Yes I lm a sunscreen addict! That’s my fav skincare item! 

[CynthieLu]

Wow! Luxe picks! @fitz 

[itsfi]

What a beautiful selection of beauties @fitz! The combination of that Dior quint and YSL red lipstick will make for a classic and classy look for the holidays. ♥️ Well, for all year round, really. 

[Saradestin]

Great basket @fitz ! That YSL lippie looks gorgeous! 

[LayanAgha]

I will be grabbing a few things I’ve been eyeing for a LONG time now. Super excited for the sets especially, haven’t fully decided which value sets I’m going to grab but I know I for sure want to grab the YSL fragrance set alongside the laneige lip sleeping mask set just to try the mint chocolate chip scent.

The mint chocolate is my favorite scent of the Laneige lip masks @LayanAgha. I even ordered some limited edition scents from other websites but I keep coming back to the mint chocolate scent. BTW if you like to be enabled ( BIC members are real good at that) Native has a limited edition scent mint cookie cupcake body wash and they also offer a deodorant. I am running low on it and I realize that I really want it as part of my routine. My favorite flavor ice cream is chocolate chip mint .

[faeriegirl]

Nice list @LayanAgha ! I love SDJ mists!

[sister13]

Amazing choices. I don’t even especially like the Laneige sleeping mask but had to get the set last year! I put them in stockings and added to gifts throughout the year. They are so darling! @LayanAgha 

[itsfi]

I love how your shopping cart is all ready to go @LayanAgha! Lovin’ all your lippie choices - they’re fabulous! ♥️

[Cissy63]

@LayanAgha  I love the Laneige lip sleeping mask.  Right now I’m halfway through my Berry flavor.  But I may have to get this sample pack and see what I think about mint chocolate!!
