Priceline 40% Off Skincare (July)

Oh Priceline.
Ooooooh Priceline.
You know the way to my heart.

On the 27/7 and 28/7 Priceline had one of its' pop-up 40% off sales for skincare.  These happen every 6 months or so, and I was in need, dire, dire, need of some items.
As much as I love my AB products there are some items that aren't AB that are Holy Grails in my routines.

I was down to the last scrapings of my last tub of Nivea Creme that I bought randomly a few months ago to supplement my supply.

Rationing. Every. Last. Bit.

Great Wall of Nivea

I do love my Nivea Creme.  I didn't buy enough in the last 40% off in Feb, so hopefully 12 tubs should see me through 6 months.  I use this on my face and on my body.  This is a product that I use everyday, twice a more, more if my skin is ridiculously dry.  If I could only have one skincare product left to use it would be this.

I also collected some of my favourite toner.

This doesn't claim to be for dry skin, but my skin is very fond of it. I'm halfway through my second bottle already so grabbed these.  I had tried a different toner after I finished a bottle of this but my skin was not as happy as before so I had to buy another bottle of this.  The different in dryness is noticeable.  I like to amp this up by mixing in some hyaluronic serum in with it.

Trying some of these Sukin items as they do have good reviews.
The Sensitive Cleansing Lotion seems to be massively popular.  Both times in these sales I've seen people grab handfuls and they always get emptied out early on.

Simple has some items that have a nice short ingredient list that were in travel sizes and thought they would be good to trial.
Simple has seemed a bit hit and miss, so if I can get a sample size or a trial size I would prefer to get that first rather than committing to a full item.

I've been interested in cream cleansers, as I'm searching for something to replace my Avene Extremely Gentle cleanser which is over $30.
This also had a lovely short ingredient list and has worked well so far but it smells of sunscreen and its disconcerting.  The first time I used it I had to double check that I had bought a cleanser....

So the Nivea and Toner were planned purchases and the others were items that caught my eye as I was rampaging through Priceline.  I looked at some of the serums and tried them and such but really balked at the prices.  I have been far too spoilt by RoseRoseShop and their prices.  My shop last Feb in Priceline was quite different to this shop.

What did you get in the Priceline Skincare sale?
