To make some space for my things, I have been busy decluttering my mom’s attic as she needs more help as she gets older and I am moving in with her. I ran across a few big sealed plastic boxes you store clothes and whatever else in to keep it in good, dry condition that was under tables she kept for some reason that I had back in college. I graduated in 2003.
It has been a walk down memory lane but I have to share these two gems I found in one of the boxes. Drum roll please……..
Benefit’s Bathina Body Oil Mist being 95% full and Benefit’s Take a Picture…It Lasts Longer Body Balm that smells like the Bathina. The balm container is scratched up but it is still in great, usable condition.
I will use both of the products sparingly. I forgot all about the Bathina line and looked it up online and to my dismay, it has been discontinued quite awhile ago and it is expensive to purchase off of third-party sellers plus who is to say it is even the authentic products.
Behold the treasures from undergrad that I forgot all about!

Also, does anyone else remember Benefit’s old school You Rebel tinted moisturizer and She Laq makeup sealant that came in a dark blue nail polish like bottle and had a brush along with some other brush applicators for eyebrows, lips, etc? A dried up tube of You Rebel and she laq that dripped out in a plastic ziploc baggie were also in the things I am going through.

I am pretty sure I got my Benefit stuff back in the day from a fun catalog that would be published a couple times a year. I was a waitress and have fond memories of looking over the Benefit product book in the break room at the restaurant. I know one girl’s signature scent was “Maybe Baby” by benefit. I don’t remember it specifically but for some reason I think it probably did smell awesome!

Feel free to take a trip down memory lane with me with lines and products you remember fondly.

The Mega Deals had a lot of BOGO free products. I could have spent hundreds of dollars in the shop.

The product I am most excited for is the BOGO Korres Foaming Cream Cleanser. I have used a lot of cleansers and this one is a miracle cleanser. I was about to drop more money on one than I got for two. You may think the Greek Yoghurt in it will go bad or is gross but it doesn’t. It has pre and probiotics that actively help your skin conditions.

The most I spent was on the Ofra Pro Palette Eyeshadow but it looked so versatile and had both neutral and color eyeshadows. Has anyone got this Palette?

I’m shocked I didn’t buy any First Aid Beauty but I have everything I needed that was offered. If you ever come across the FAB Ultra Repair Cream with Collodial Outmeal, it is worth getting it. I had very bad scarring from a bilateral mastectomy and it has faded the scars tremendously. You can also use it on your face!

Stoked about the free product! I’m a sucker for free products! Not really a fan of Dr. Brandt but free is free!

Happy shopping!
