Q2 Empties with Mini Reviews (Fungal Acne started, arm KP, & Haircare!)
​
I'm shocked at how many products I have and I'm trying to get through them all. I get discouraged when I randomly buy things so I'm going to do a no buy July into August. 🤞🤞🤞 (I had a recent first time flare with fungal acne in March-may so I'm still recovering from that and had to transition to some specific products for a while).
