I’m having a lot of personal upheaval in my life right now, and that always makes one of two things happen- emotional eating or emotional shopping. I have broken my unofficial no-buy on a bunch of little things from KVD and TF. Now I’m drooling over the ABH Norvina palette. Ugh. I have no other ABH palettes, but this one is just calling to me.

Girl...I completely relate, I do the same thing. I hope things even out soon.

I hope you feel better, but Kat von d is a vile person. .

We’ve discussed it here before pandce.proboards.com/thread/585012/recent-racist-stuff-beauty-world?page=1 and I believe a few other times too

I just tried a BHA/AHA thing from TO for the first time. I felt my face kind of prickling immediately, so I only left it on for 3 minutes. I hope my face doesn’t peel off...or is that what’s supposed to happen? 😂 Tagging pantsparty since I think she may have used it iirc

Dang! Her stuff is too spendy for me, but I applaud her success.

Sephora had crap samples today. I only got one because every other one was perfume. I did get 8% on ebates and the DE sample so that's something but still the sample selection was horrid.

Go home Cosmo, you’re drunk.

Is it April Fools’ Day?

I am crying into my wallet.

I am pretty sure that I bought all the drunk elephant things because of this board. LOL!!

The polypeptide cream is fabulous!!

How did your face look the day after the treatment? I can leave mine on the full amount of time, but I've been using acids and retinol for years. I usually follow up a treatment like that with CeraVe Healing Ointment and my skin always looks fine the next day.

It looked fine, surprisingly! It felt really smooth too. I am having some breakouts but I don’t think it’s related. I think I’m going to try using the retinol and that each once a week and see how it goes. My wedding is in a couple months so I’m trying to get my skin looking nice, lolx

If you like sheet masks, you should check Facetory out. They're a subscription service for Korean facemasks. I tried a box and I love the ones I got so far.

I have a code if anyone wants to try it (it says you get up to 4 free masks and I get reward points, idk anything about their rewards program) i.refs.cc/S69xNA8r?u=1532328171991

I like the ones I got because they had so much serum left in the pouch that I could use that a couple more times too.

I’ve offically finished all of my lipgloss stash from the last few years:) As a reward I bought a Pat McGrath gloss and I really hope I like the formula. I might also grab a Marc Jacobs gloss.

Thanks! I used to hate gloss but after panning like 10 of them I actually love it now lol.

Well, it finally happened. Buxom has discontinued my favorite lip product I should have known when I didn't see it at Ulta the last time I was there.

I'm sure I'll be able to find a similar color, but I really liked the Buxom formula. Booooooo.

[calico]

Congrats Pippin !  Gloss always seems to take me FOREVER to use.  I think it replenishes itself while it's in my purse.

I am decluttering by giving stuff to a niece, however, I do not feel like I am making much of a dent.

Also - my Becca souffles are officially dried up, I'm sad.

[nsl]

Wow, way to go, Pippin!

I think I have my makeup set up the way I want it in my new bathroom, and it's amazing how much stuff I had completely forgot I owned when it was all crammed into a linen closet in our old house. Just today I used a blush and lipstick from that stash, and found a bunch of untouched Fresh lip balms that will likely last me until 2019 or later.

I know, I tossed mine in my recent declutter and I was sad but also annoyed that I had to toss them.

Wow that must feel amazing. I'm thinking of getting one of those spinning toiletry towers from Amazon for my bathroom counter and maybe my vanity too. Something like this:

Especially since gelees are going strong.

Glad you are loving it!! I loooooooove the polypetide cream. I picked it up in April during the Sephora sale, and it is so good. The Lala cream was nice but too rich. This one just feels so nourishing.

I have a heavy day moisturizer (Josie Maran), so I find my skin reacts better if I take an occasional break night from it, so I still use Aqua Bomb about two nights a week instead, which is fine by me since Aqua Bomb is much cheaper.

Which one? I have a bunch of Buxom lip stuff I rarely use, would be happy to pass on if I have the one you like/ if you're interested.
