Finish 6 By Christmas!

I was waiting anxiously ever since Amber F mentioned doing a 6 by Christmas challenge (mirrored after the Finish 5 by Fall, which I missed out on). Basically, the goal of this challenge is to finish 6 products by Christmas (Dec. 25). Below I have my six products that I am going to attempt to use up:

My first product I'm going to try to finish by Christmas is the Rimmel Scandaleyes eye pencil in Black. I do really enjoy this pencil. I find it's staying power is fantastic and the color is very pigmented. I'm not sure how far I'll get on this project, by I'll get as far as I can :)


My Second product that I'm going to try and use is the Rimmel retractable lip liner in Eastend Snob. I've used this a little bit, and like it just fine, but I want to try some more liners so this needs to make its way out.


My third "item" is actually 9 perfumes samples. I am trying to use these up currently and thought I would include the amount of them here :) I have: Desire by Dolce&Gabbana , Elizabeth and James Nirvana Black, NY DKNY, Clean skin, Atelier Cologne "Cedrat Enivrant Cologne Absolue", Tocca Beauty "Margaux", Calvin Klein "Down Town", Balenciaga Paris "Florabotanica", Hanae Mori Eau de Toilette. The first one I'm working on is Desire. I have been using this for a few days so only the bottom fourth is left.


My fourth item is my Bath and Body Works body lotion in the scent "Moonlight Path", a long time favorite. I just have WAY TOO MUCH lotion! Like, I went on a "I need every scent of lotion that exists in this store" kind of shopping spree over the course of 3 years... So, they need to make their way out to a more reasonable number. I did draw a line to make it more evident where my starting progress was.

My fifth item to use up is my little bottle of "It's a 10!" leave-in hair treatment. I really love what this product does to my hair. It makes it look healthy, shiny, and helps with my weird kinky waves. I have another bottle of this that my fiance's mother bought for me, so I want to use this little one up since I have a backup. As with my lotion, I draw a black line on the corner to help distinguish where I was.


My sixth, and final, item is the Be a Bombshell Smooth Criminal Powder. This is a brand new deluxe sample I received in my ipsy bag. I'm putting in here to really give it a fair test to see if I like it or not. After my first use this morning, I think it works really well at controlling my oily spots and makes my skin feel really smooth. It is really powder though, I had to back away from the puff cloud as I was applying it.

So this is my Finish 6 by Christmas Challenge. I'll probably update this one on a monthly basis.

Wish me luck guys! And if you're reading this, I challenge you to do it too! :)

  2. Good luck to you too!!

    I debated filming videos, but finding time to film (and how/where to film) seemed a little daunting to me personally. Plus, I hate the sound of my voice on recordings, so editing would be a cringe-worthy nightmare to me lol.

    What all are you trying to use up?
