Caudalie VinoSource-Hydra Moisturizing Mask

Had two of these 75mL/2.5fl. oz. tubes of Caudalie VinoSource-Hydra Moisturizing Mask also and gave one away to my brother. He complained of dry skin and wanted to try a sleeping mask. Just after just one try though, he gave it back to me saying it smelled like dirt. Like, whaaa?

Erno Laszlo Hydra-Therapy Refresh Infusion

I had two of these 30mL/1fl. oz. pump bottles of Erno Laszlo Hydra-Therapy Refresh Infusion and quickly used up both. 
 

 
This was a transparent pale pink serum, slightly viscous and fragrant of rose--the good kind that didn't give me a headache. It went on very light and absorbed very quickly. I thought it might have been too light for the fall and winter but I started using it this past spring and found it adequate. Too bad it was discontinued. Glad I tried it!

Paul & Joe Foundation Primer Part V

Now that I've tried several of Paul & Joe Foundation Primers, I totally get why they have a cult following in Japan. Even I have developed my own favorite among them. I dislike the idea of a "HG" product--I cringe at the word, but let's just say that I will always give a new P&J primer a try because, yes, they're totally worth it. 

First up is the Pearl Foundation Primer 005 Bonani Versale released in Spring 2022 as part of Paul & Joe 20th Anniversary Collection. This was the 4th Pearl Foundation Primer I've had from P&J, so I know they aren't without problems, but I'm a total sucker for them nonetheless. Who could resist these colorful pearls suspended in clear gel?

I had two of these 15mL/0.51fl. oz. jars of Boscia Indigo Eye Cream, one from a Boscia Day & Night Eye Set (from Costco!!!), and another from a later purchase. I kept only one jar and gifted the other to my friend M.

Finished this 30mL/1fl. oz. pump bottle of Avene A-Oxitive Antioxidant Water-Cream long ago but the post got buried in my Draft folder.
