June 2025 FoilsMonth-To-Date = 16 (13 shown here from vacation; others will be part of an empties post, to come later)Year-To-Date = 49❤️ Sol de Janeiro Beija Flor™ Body Collagen-Boosting Elasti-Cream with Vegan Collagen and Bio-Retinol is my favorite scent in the SdJ collection (though I note that I really haven't tried the releases after 40 Bom Dia Bright) 👍 Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Visibly Firming Refillable Body Cream with Caffeine-Rich Guaranà (x2) - the scent that started the cult following. Such a beachy scent; the shower gel in the original Bum Bum scent is intoxicating! 👍 Peace Out Salicylic Acid Acne Healing Dots should be with the empties section, not foils. Oops. I prefer the patches from The Inkey List and the Day Dots from this brand but the OG will do just fine, especially when a huge zit made an appearance at the tail end of my vacation. I hesitated to pack this but I'm glad I did; if only, I would have also packed a clay mask or AHA serum. Lesson learned. 🐐 Farmacy Honey Halo Ultra-Hydrating Ceramide Moisturizer 1.7 oz/ 50 mL (x4) - even in humidity, my skin can use a more emollient moisturizer like this one. Keeps my skin moisturized after being on a plane, in air conditioning and out in the sun for most of the day. I use lighter layers on the parts of my skin that lean more oily. 🐐 EADEM Milk Marvel Dark Spot Serum with Niacinamide and Vitamin C 1 oz/ 30 mL - love, love, loooove 👍 BondiBoost HG Shampoo & Conditioner Set for Thinning Hair with Rosemary - my recollection is that @ather is a fan of this shampoo & conditioner and if my memory is right, I completely understand. My hair felt soft, smooth and happy on the days I used this combo. Full sizes are on the list for the fall or year-end sale - I need some time to work through the shampoo and conditioner sets that are already open. 😐Cecred Hydrating Shampoo and Cecred HydratingConditioner - I wanted to like these two, but the scent was too strong and too peppery for my liking, at least with these foil samples. I'm gonna have to follow up with some friends who I know have this combo to see if that held true for them as well, or if, perhaps, my foils were off. 🐐 AmorePacific Treatment Enzyme Peel - this is one I continue to come back to. There are many similar products on the market, and many of them perform quite nicely as well, but this one from AP is a tried-and-true favorite. So finely milled and leaves my skin exfoliated, cleansed and hydrated. There's an herbaceous like scent to it that might not be for everyone, but I enjoy it; it's how I know it's from AP.
