今天我想做一些即兴post on what to do with products that just didn't work out for you. Here in the UK, you can't return opened beauty products and whilst I try to pass on as much as I can, I do tend to leave products I think I won't like unopened so someone else can have them fresh and new. That still means there are quite a few products I end up with that I tried, didn't love and need a use for, so these are my top tips!

问题：“这种酸太强了！”解决方案：将其用于身体

我们的脸部和颈部皮肤比我们身体的其余部分都要薄得多（不过，请注意：腋窝仍然很敏感，显然是任何亲密的区域！）因此，通常应该为脸部配制的产品更温和。这也意味着，如果产品对您的脸部过于激烈或敏感，则可以对您的身体工作。我个人患有KP（如果您想进一步了解这一点 - 查看我的dedicated post) which is effectively a buildup of keratin in the hair follicle which can lead to dryness, irritation and the tell-tale red bumps. Exfoliation is really important and the fact the skin is quite thick and rough where I have my KP so it can definitely take a more intense exfoliator. In fact, these stronger products every so often help a lot in releasing some of that build-up and smoothing out the skin on my body.

问题：“这种保湿剂太丰富而沉重！”解决方案：在脖子上使用它

您真的不需要四处购买单独的脖子霜，但是将您的护肤带到那里是一个好主意，我经常使用出于某种原因或其他原因不起作用的产品在我的脖子上，我的脸上温和。我有一个我真的很喜欢的保湿剂，它非常矮，但在防晒霜或面部油下不舒服，这分别对我的AM和PM例程来说是必不可少的，因此我晚上将其应用于我的脖子和胸部。同样，您不一定需要与脸部上所有化妆品的脖子上的美容优雅水平相同，因此，如果某种东西太重或太丰富或太富裕或不太适合您的皮肤类型：去脖子和胸部。

Problem: "this mineral sunscreen leaves a white cast!" Solution: use it around your eyes only

矿物防晒霜通常在眼睛周围的刺激性要少得多，因此，如果您发现自己喜欢的产品有时会转移并引起燃烧，然后尝试使用基于矿物的配方，而不是整个脸部都无法正常工作。您可以稍微透明一点，并使铸件越来越少，因为它不在任何地方（如果您穿遮瑕膏，这是尤其是正确的），并且具有较小的可能导致最接近您的燃烧和浇水的可能性的额外好处眼睛。如果它不像以这种方式那样工作，或者您仍然不舒服：尝试您的手的背部，因为它们被忽略了，并且可能是展示传动迹象的第一个场所之一。

问题：“这个清洁剂太苛刻，剥离了！”解决方案：将其保存到use after exercise

As someone with a drier skin type, I quite often use cleansers that leave my skin feeling a bit tight and squeaky. So many, that I often pass them on to friends and family, barely touched, but I keep hold of a couple because they're great at cutting through the layer of sweat that forms on my face after I've been out for a run.

Problem: "this face mist is too scented!" Solution: use it a room or pillow spray

最后，我个人喜欢芬芳的脸部薄雾，但是每隔一段时间都会感觉就像您在皮肤上喷洒香水一样。如果这样的想法立即使您失望，我建议将其用作太空雾，而不是直接在您的皮肤上。如果您进行了放松的会议，只需在自己的枕头上或浴缸上方雾化它，就可以享受气味，而不必担心任何刺激或太强壮（因为它会在空中散发一点）。

How do you find a use for products that just didn't do it for you?
