I’m not only a perfume sample junkie, I’m also a cosmetics
sample junkie. I love those little packets, tubes, and bottles, and will buy
full sized things, usually things that I actually want, to get more of
them even though I have enough. My cosmetics collection rivals my perfume collection, and I actually use
both of these collections so little that it doesn’t make a lot of sense to keep
them at their current size. I would like, at the very least, to create some
sort of homeostasis so that things move out at the same rate they move in.
This week’s exercise in elimination will include the usual
100 g of assorted fragrance samples, but it will also include a variety of
mint-condition skin-care and skin-enhancement samples. I’m pretty particular (and
lazy) about what I put on my face. I don’t use any sort of sunscreen product,
and I never use any sort of foundation unless I’m going to engage in a major
photo shoot. I won’t use lotions, moisturizers, serums, and other such things
if I don’t like the smell, or if they’re strongly perfumed, even if it’s a
scent that I might like in another context. I don’t use face primers,
highlighters, contourers (is that a word?), or face powders. Nevertheless, I’m
always receiving unsolicited samples of these things, and they just sit
gathering dust. If you like face products, you’re in luck this week because the
giveaway includes a goodie bag full of these things.
To enter the drawing, leave a comment about whether you use face products of any sort and, if so, what you like and/or dislike.
