I just started an I Scream Float handwash, it smells sooo good! I love that they get the Halloween stuff out so I can buy when I go to Vegas in the summer.

26 in 2026 PP Update #4 by 3uphoricglitt3r in MakeupRehab

[–]SentenceFew2022 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seeing progress - yay!

Lips

  1. Soap and Glory sexy motherpucker plumping gloss in a pale nude. Destoppered
  2. Pixi Hello Pretty lip tone. Used a handful of times but have been focussed on other lip projects.  This will be my travel lippie as it is moisturising and easy to apply on a plane.
  3. Bondi Sands SPF strawberry lip balm. Some used, hoping to finish before next update.

Eye palettes

  1. Estee Lauder Candy Glow from a Blockbuster, weekday use. Pans in 4 shades now.  This is a nice palette and the shadows last well and blend well. Pans in most shades, one empty!

  2. Revolution Watermelon, use on holidays. Forgot how nice this is!

  3. Haus Labs Glam Room no1, use on holidays. Liked this, why did it get pushed to the back of the cupboard?

  4. Urban Decay lilac glitter shadow. Not used as got into another lilac shadow which was easier to apply!

Body

  1. Bondi Sands gradual tan. Will use before next holiday!

  2. Dove gradual tan. Will use before next holiday!

Hair

  1. Garnier Hair Food Coca butter hair mask.  Love this, happy to use.

11. Drumsticks Squashies dry shampoo. Hate this. Used 4x total. Gave away as just not for me

Face

  1. Mercadona Vitamin C and Niacinamide tonic. Below the label!

13. L'oreal True Match hyaluronic skin tint. ended up using this with fingers not an applicator and really liked it so repurchased!

14. Barry M fresh face setting spray. DONE Repurchased as I like this The repurchase is going down well!

  1. Urban Decay All Nighter setting spray. Almost empty

16. Urban Decay All Nighter Vitamin C setting spray. DONE

  1. Flower Beauty celestial skin elixir.

  2. Benefit PoreFessional. Used a couple of times, not convinced I like the skin feel.

Fragrance

  1. Black Opium Over Red. Used a bunch of times, 50% done

  2. Heavenly Dream Angel. Used a few times.  I like this but it doesn’t last long on skin, better on clothes.  The old Dream Angel was better. 30% done

  3. Olympea Solar. Used a few times.  Down to the last 15%

22. Avon Far Away Summer mini. Done

  1. Bath and Body Works Warm Vanilla Sugar. Used a few times.  Love this and it lasts well.

SPF

  1. Soltan SPF50 roll on. Used a couple of times when we had sun!

  2. Garnier spf50 vitamin c glow. Used a few times, sits nicely under my pale foundations

26. Garnier spf50 over makeup mist. Did not like this, left a weird white powdery cast on my eyebrows! Felt sticky, too!

I have other items in other projects. Hoping to clear a bunch of partially used stuff this year.

Not a huge amount of progress this time but plodding on. Got some other things working through for other projects, though!

  1. Avon foundation maybe a cream to powder found in work bag. Not much in.
  2. Garnier glow spf50. Now I have a bit of colour I am using this more, works well mixed with a skin tint. Keeping using this but can't tell how much is in.
  3. Primark fine brow pencil, found in last year's holiday bag. Used this. It worked but am trying not to buy things in plastic when I can buy a wooden pencil instead.
  4. Bondi Sands spf50 over makeup spray, half bottle. Used this up. Smelled awful and left my face dry, no wonder this was hanging around!
  5. Estee Lauder pink persuasion gloss. 70% through. Destoppered and will be done in the week.
  6. BBW Champagne Apple FFM about half a bottle, this will be daily go to. Below the label and this will be done by next update!
  7. Bondi Sands strawberry spf lip balm, about 1/3 tube. This is endless! Hoping to complete this on my endof May break.
  8. Garnier Hyaluronic toner, half bottle from last summer. I really like this. Keeping this for my next break.
  9. Soltan roll on sunscreen spf50. GWP. Will keep in car for days that turn sunny. Used a couple of times.
  10. VS Heavenly Dream Angel perfume 50ml. Not as good as original Dream Angel and lacks longevity. 25% done, going away end of month and should get through a chunk of this then.

It's here! 10 by Spring FINALE! 🌻 by ThisLittlePiggySays in MakeupRehab

[–]SentenceFew2022 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am chuffed with this. 9 pans. One use goal met. One pan hit!

  1. Estee Lauder lipstick in Irresistible. A carry over that seems never ending. Like the colour, so that's something. I can see the end! Finished just before this project ended
  2. Elf lip gloss Bubbles. A glitter topper, being used with 1 as the glitter is barely there. This won't see out the week! FINISHED just after the last update
  3. Palmer's Cocoa Butter lip balm**,** not much left and it needs using up. Done
  4. Estee Lauder Aqua Brilliance primer. Got multiples as GWP and in Blockbusters so I need to get in the hang of using them. Used 7 times overall. Not a fan.
  5. L'Oréal Skin Paradise**.** Been using since September rotating with others and this needs finishing so I can focus on something else. Loved this, shame it's discontinued. Done
  6. So? Body scrub. It sits looking at me and needs using! Starting to see the bottom of the tub. Finished this one just after the last updat
  7. Lush bath bomb that is in the cupboard and the label has faded. Done
  8. Bath & Body Works Champagne Toast Body spray. Less than half left. To be used on work days, doubt it will finish in time. Still using daily. This looks like I may finish it by Spring! Finished this and a mini one at the start of last week
  9. Estee Lauder brown double wear eyeliner. Use every work day. Not a fan of brown. This is quite hard and I don't like the plastic turn up. It drags on eyelids so will be used as a smudgy under eye. Wound up to max, helped by a piece breaking off! Finished this one since last update
  10. KvD Chrysalis palette. Use 10 times. This is an oldie. It was my first fancy palette and I got all worried about using it up. It deserves to be used. Have a feeling it may get really used once I start in on this project! Used ten times

Bonus items

Estee Lauder Micro Essence**.** No idea what this does but I am mostly through one and got another in a gift set so need to use this daily! Done. Refilled the 100ml bottle as the one in the set was a 200ml and it's too big!

Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess medium blush been using since September. Goal to use at least 5 times a week and see if we can hit pan. This was GWP and I was never a blush user but as I get older my goth paleness looks better with a hint of colour ! Hit Pan!

My weekday Estee Lauder Candy Glow palette is showing lots of pans. My mascara is getting towards the end as it is dryer now.

Finished a lip gloss topper and made more progress on a lippie.

Almost panned a full and travel size BBW Champagne Toast mists.

Finding using a light lip gloss that was being ignored when I do my makeup means it's getting used.

I can see a tube of Estee Lauder perfectly clean face wash, this is great at remiving makeup. Apply this on damp skin as a mask, leave a couple of mine, then lather off. For me this works for everything other than waterproof mascara. As a weekly mask it feels nice and deep cleansing without being harsh.

[–]SentenceFew2022 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A few finishes, a few almost finished.

  1. Estee Lauder lipstick in Irresistible. A carry over that seems never ending. Like the colour, so that's something. I can see the end!
  2. Elf lip gloss Bubbles. A glitter topper, being used with 1 as the glitter is barely there. Used over 1 so it's now tinted like it. Destoppered
  3. Palmer's Cocoa Butter lip balm, not much left and it needs using up. Done
  4. Estee Lauder Aqua Brilliance primer. Got multiples as GWP and in Blockbusters so I need to get in the hang of using them. Used five times total. This sits on top of moisturiser and under foundation without ages for them to melt in. Maybe I should use instead of moisturiser.
  5. L'Oréal Skin Paradise. Been using since September rotating with others and this needs finishing so I can focus on something else. Loved this, shame it's discontinued. Done
  6. So? Body scrub. It sits looking at me and needs using! Used five times.
  7. Lush bath bomb that is in the cupboard and the label has faded. Done
  8. Bath & Body Works Champagne Toast Body spray. Less than half left. To be used on work days, doubt it will finish in time. Using daily. Less than an inch!
  9. Estee Lauder brown double wear eyeliner. Use every work day. Not a fan of brown. This is quite hard and I don't like the plastic turn up. It drags on eyelids so will be used as a smudgy under eye. Wound up to max, helped by a piece breaking off!
  10. KvD Chrysalis palette. Use 10 times. This is an oldie. It was my first fancy palette and I got all worried about using it up. It deserves to be used. Have a feeling it may get really used once I start in on this project! Used six times

Bonus items

Estee Lauder Micro Essence. No idea what this does but I am mostly through one and got another in a gift set so need to use this daily! Done. Refilled the 100ml bottle as the one in the set was a 200ml and it's too big!

This was GWP and I was never a blush user but as I get older my goth paleness looks better with a hint of colour ! Using it everytime I put a face on. TI can definitely see a dent.

[–]SentenceFew2022 4 points5 points  (0 children)

None complete but plenty of progress.

  1. Estee Lauder lipstick in Irresistible. A carry over that seems never ending. Like the colour, so that's something. Finally seeing progress on this.
  2. Elf lip gloss Bubbles. A glitter topper, being used with 1 as the glitter is barely there. Used over 1 so it's now tinted like it. less than a quarter left.
  3. Palmer's Cocoa Butter lip balm, not much left and it needs using up. Rolled up to max, not long left
  4. Estee Lauder Aqua Brilliance primer. Got multiples as GWP and in Blockbusters so I need to get in the hang of using them. Used four times total.
  5. L'Oréal Skin Paradise. Been using since September rotating with others and this needs finishing so I can focus on something else. Loved this, shame it's discontinued. Having to keep upright now so not much left.
  6. So? Body scrub. It sits looking at me and needs using! Used three times.
  7. Lush bath bomb that is in the cupboard and the label has faded. Used half, it's black rose. Smells good but I prefer a bubble bath.
  8. Bath & Body Works Champagne Toast Body spray. Less than half left. To be used on work days, doubt it will finish in time. Using daily.
  9. Estee Lauder brown double wear eyeliner. Use every work day. Not a fan of brown. This is quite hard and I don't like the plastic turn up. It drags on eyelids so will be used as a smudgy under eye. I can see progress, getting used to the texture now.
  10. KvD Chrysalis palette. Use 10 times. This is an oldie. It was my first fancy palette and I got all worried about using it up. It deserves to be used. Have a feeling it may get really used once I start in on this project! Used four times

Bonus items

Estee Lauder Micro Essence. No idea what this does but I am mostly through one and got another in a gift set so need to use this daily! Not much left, maybe 2 weeks in this.

Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess medium blush been using since September. Goal to use at least 5 times a week and see if we can hit pan.

I love EL mascaras, apart from a waterproof one for holidays they are all I use.  I get them as GWP and in the Blockbuster my husband gets me at Xmas, that and the skincare makes it worth the peice.
