No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries January 2018

How amazing is the BM Serum? Did you have a full size? If so, how long did it take to UU. Did you use it am and pm?
I have a full size and I think I bought it in July last year. I use it once a day after I have cleansed in the morning. As I noticed a difference after a few days I kept it up and have rarely missed a day. It's just two pumps a day really in your hand and then smooth on your face and neck (and back of my hands if any tiny bit left). I have fairly normal skin but it is prone to the occasional patch of dryness and dehydration but I have crazy freckles and occasionally they gang up on me into muddy looking clumps. This stuff has been great. It just totally evened my skin tone out, feels good and I have also quit under eye cream which was an unexpected bonus. I haven't had to use any in months and I really think it's this stuff. My Mum is in her mid - 70s and that is where I got the freckles, she commented that my freckles look amazing, like clearer and not clumped/muddy looking. She wants some of this for her birthday in April.
I want to replace mine as soon as I use it up but I have other night serums to use up first. I already know I will repurchase this.
Hope that helps!0 -

A big help thanks. I was hoping to be able to use it inlieu of eye cream too. When I used it it really smoothed my skin. I get a rough patch of skin along my jaw line and this smoothed that instantly. I'm using a Caudalie one at the mo before I move onto this. I need so much of that product on application though.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!

Lancôme Energie de Vie sleep mask 15ml. Great for after night shift. Makes me feel human after erratic sleep. No longer work night shift! So have to rethink.
Atelier Cologne Orange Sanguine. 4ml. Love it. Note at home on stash
.
NYX Sapphire kohl eye liner. Nope. Smudged. Difficult to sharpen even when cold. It was like a bad pencil that kept breaking when you sharpened it. Amazed I didn!!!8217;t chuck it ages ago. It wasn!!!8217;t cheap but it wasn!!!8217;t expensive. When did kohl pencils stop being dirt cheap?0 -
