IT’S SEPTEMBER. HOW IS THAT A THING. But that means that it’s time for August’s empties. I think August was a record for me — two sunscreens, two moisturizers, two serums (small sizes, but still!) and an essence.
Trilipiderm Protective Day Creme
Already repurchased and on my third bottle! A great easy sunscreen.
Krave Beauty The Beet Shield
Already repurchased and have my husband using it too. One bottle lives on the counter, another with the mountain-biking gear. I was able to use this at high elevations with nary a sunburn.
Complexion MD Anti-Wrinkle Cream
A favorite of my mom’s, but I won’t be repurchasing. The only “anti-wrinkle” agent in it is peptides, and I’m not sold on them as promoting collagen development.
The Inkey List Bakuchiol Moisturizer
Already repurchased and on my third tube! A great, cheap bakuchiol option.
Biossance Squalane + Phyto-Retinol Serum
Lovely to use, but feels a bit pricey especially compared to other bakuchiol products on the market. (See above.) Probably not repurchasing.
Kate Somerville Kx Active Concentrates Ceramides + Omegas Serum
Super nice, super pricey. Not repurchasing except as a splurge.
May Coop Raw Sauce
Not as hydrating as I’d hoped, and I’ve since moved on to other essences. Not repurchasing.
