Still trying to catch up on everything in life over here. I am so behind. More then usual after coming back from a trip. I used up alot of stuff while I was on vacation in Disney so there are some separate pictures of that because I am not insane enough to bring trash home with me. I try to pack toiletries I know will get used up so I usually do a pretty good job of using stuff up. I think I used up around 30 or so items.
Skincare(23)
Fresh Vitamin Nectar Vibrancy Boosting Face Mask. Did not like. This had a weird consistency I felt like I was rubbing marmalade on my face. I also feel like it made my skin look really congested.
Repurchase: No
Bath and Body Works Sea Mineral All Over Mist this smelled nice and like oceany I like ocean scents so this was nice and refreshing. I don’t think it had any real benefits other than feeling and smelling nice.
Repurchase: Maybe
Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Deep Dive Makeup Removing Gel Cleanser the packaging on this was so awful it is a gel cleanser so it doesn’t just pour out but the bottle is a hard plastic that you can’t squeeze so that was super frustrating. This was an ok cleanser it had the same lovely smell as the spray but between the two I would choose the spray.
Repurchase: No
Belif True Cream Moisturizing Bomb I didn’t like this it felt like it just took way to long to sink into my skin.
Repurchase: No
Clinique Fresh Pressed Renewing Powder Cleanser this was really nice especially for travel I really liked the easy of a single use packet. I liked this so much more than the Tatcha one I also tried on my trip.
Repurchase: Maybe
Ole Hendriksen Truth Serum this was fine I guess I couldn’t tell with just one use. I like the Truth line a lot though so I would be open to trying again.
Repurchase: No
The Body Shop Japanese Matcha Tea Mask I really liked this mask it was a great travel mask that made my skin feel cleaner and less just yuck from traveling but also just made my skin feel nice. Kinda a do it all mask.
Repurchase: Yes
Pond’s Wipes I don’t really love these the cold cream in them makes them very sticky and leave residue on my skin that I need to wash off and the sting my eyes a bit not a huge fan.
Repurchase: No
Cocobetty Coconut Oil Wipe I didn’t like this it was really just a coconut oil wipe. So greasy.
Repurchase: No
Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleansing Cloths I liked these they were gentle didn’t sting and removed light makeup well enough.
Repurchase: Maybe
Tatcha Polished Classic Rice Enzyme Powder Cleanser I really liked having a powder cleanser for traveling but this one not so much it was kinda awkwardly gritty. It wasn’t gritty enough to be an exfoliator but too gritty to feel great on the skin. It did a fine job of cleaning my skin but I didn’t love it.
Repurchase: No
Clinique Take The Day Off Balm I love this. It is my favorite way to take off eye makeup. This is as close to a Mulan makeup removing moment it is physically possible to have. It is quick easy takes everything off and doesn’t
Repurchase: Yes
The Body Shop Ethiopian Honey Mask this was ok I have had cheaper honey masks that I liked a lot better this didn’t do anything really other than feel nice.
Repurchase: No
Clinique Rinse-off Eye Makeup Solvent (yes I do really like Clinique skincare how could you tell). This does almost as good of a job as the balm for eye makeup removal and does not sting my eyes. I like this a lot for cleaning up wings taking off makeup just what ever.
Repurchase: Maybe, I like the Sephora one more that I would be more inclined to buy that
Urban Decay Meltdown Makeup Remover this is a decent first oil cleanse for makeup removal I liked it I didn’t love it. It worked but felt like I needed a lot of product.
Repurchase: Maybe, if I could get this size because good for travel
Clarins Extra Firming-Jour I kinda used this as my face sunscreen and a primer when I ran out of mine. It didn’t break me out but it is heavy for a day cream at least for me and a touch sticky which is why it worked ok as a primer.
Repurchase: No
First Aid Beauty Pure Skin Face Cleanser very basic type cleanser feels and smells like soap.
Repurchase: No
Clinique Fresh Pressed Daily Booster (2) this is kinda like a single use vitamin c serum I guess it would be good for traveling but I found it kinda messy and wasteful and not that great.
Repurchase: No
Glamglow Supercleanse Clearing Cream-to-foam Cleanser this was a really good cleanser I really liked it. It goes own like mud but does really clean my face without stripping it. This had a really herbally earthy scent which I liked but it was very strong fyi.
Repurchase: Maybe
Air Repair Complexion Quenching Facial Mist this had a strong smell and felt nice but also a little sticky.
Repurchase: No
Ofra Volcanic Clarifying Mask so this is one of those really hard to squeeze packages and I bet if I cut it open I could probably get one more use out of it but I am not going to bother. This does make my skin feel nice but this is one of those masks that dries does really hard and tight on your face and is so hard to get off. Which is not something I am into at all. Repurchase: No

Fortune Cookie Soap Company OCD Hand Sanitizer in The Captain I love these hand sanitizers they don’t dry my hands out and they smell so good and not too much of that alcohol smell I have so many of them though and don’t use hand sanitizer a whole ton.
Repurchase: Maybe
Secret Outlast Deodorant this I really liked I felt like it worked really well I don’t think I have ever tried this before because it is more expensive than most other deodorants but I really liked it especially in the Florida heat.
Aquaphor Healing Ointment this is just a good multipurpose balm for like skin irritations, cracked skin or lips just any everything sorta staple I like to have around. A little goes along way.
Repurchase: Yes
Supergoop Everyday Sunscreen I hated this so thick and white and sticky and hard to rub in and doesn’t even smell like sunscreen this was just the worst.
Repurchase: No
Tommy Bahamas Shampoo this I got in the hotel and I used I to shave with it was fine that is usually what I do with hotel shampoos so that I don’t have to bring shaving cream.
Repurchase: No
Degree Deodorant this was fine I get what ever the cheapest mini deodorants are available for trips and just stock up and rotate.
Repurchase: Yes
Esfolio Foot & Heel Peeling Mask this took awhile to start peeling and then wasn’t the really good kinda peel everything came off in little chunks and it needed a little help from a pumice stone so not the greatest not terrible but not the greatest.
Repurchase: Maybe
Cowshed Sleepy Cow Relaxing Pillow Mist I really really really liked the way this smelled I wish it had been a bigger bottle. It had lemon and valerian in it and was super relaxing. I loved that it didn’t have lavender in it because sometimes that gives me a headache and you don’t often get sleep type things that don’t have lavender in them. Repurchase: Maybe, it is pricey
Home Scents (4)
Bath and Body Works Wallflower in At the Beach love this scent and this wallflower so much makes my room smell so nice and beachy and I just love it.
Repurchase: Yes
Bath and Body Works Cotton Candy Marshmallow Candle this smelled so sweet and yummy. It also burned forever which is why there is an Easter candle being finally finished up in September.
Repurchase: Maybe
Bath and Body Works Relax Candle I didn’t like this at first this was a pick from my girlfriend but it grew on me and I did find it pretty relaxing. I find that the Aromatherapy line of candles always have a really good scent throw.
Repurchase: Yes
Bath and Body Works Italy (Cannoli & Chocolate) Candle I loved this so so much I hope they bring it back. I love sweet candles and I love chocolate scents so I loved this.
Repurchase: Yes, if I can
Declutter (6)
Glamglow Gravitymud Firming Treatment Mask Sonic Edition this was absolutely awful I can’t even use it again. It burned my face and the pina colada smell is so sickeningly strong that I wanted to throw up. Made my face red and it made me feel sick it was awful.
Covergirl Melting Pout in 145 Gel-Bird I hate the sticky texture of this.
Cowshed Lippy Cow Lip Balm this was so waxy I felt like it was drying my lips out more.
3 in 1 Revolution Light Moisturizer this has roses in it which thankfully I noticed but I can’t use that since I am allergic.
Tarte Park Ave Princess Bronzer I am giving up on this bronzer it just does not work for me it is too shimmery and takes too long to build it up on my skin that by the time you can see it I am like a shimmery mess. Fenty Pro Filt’r Primer this sample looks like maybe its separated and gone bad so it’s got to go.
Makeup (13)
Makeup Revolution Pro Fix Illuminating Fix Spray I loved the packaging and the spray was pretty decent but overall this was just ok. It was more dewy looking then say the Urban Decay All Nighter but it didn’t really make my makeup last longer. It also got its dewiness from a gold glitter which is certainly a cheap way to do it that I am not a fan of. It didn’t leave glitter on my face or anything like that not like the Cover FX one but this just was ok.
Repurchase: No
Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray one of the best setting sprays does help lock in my makeup and it isn’t sticky and it sprays nice.
Repurchase: Yes
Nyx #LOTD Lip of the Day this is a liquid lip liner I don’t know all about that but I used it as a gold eyeliner is was ok but it wasn’t that smooth or that gold.
Repurchase: No
N.Y.C. Color Wheel Mosaic Face Powder in 722C Translucent Highlighter Glow well this was not a highlighter this is so so old like I had it since high school before highlighter was a thing. This was mostly just a setting powder I used it a lot but mostly because it was convenient and I liked that it had a tint and wasn’t totally translucent. I don’t think this is even made anymore I don’t know.
Repurchase: No
Wander Beauty Glowtion this is one of those tinted illuminating wear under foundation or alone type of lotions. I don’t like this nearly as much as the Glamglow one this kinda made me look glittery and blotchy.
Repurchase: No
Supergoop Defense Refresh Setting Mist this was ok I liked that I can apply it over makeup and get sun protection since I hate sunscreen. I don’t think it helped my makeup hang on though even with reapplying it.
Repurchase: Maybe
Murad Invisiblur Perfecting Shield I have a weird relationship with this product. It blurs and makes my skin really smooth it is a sunscreen that doesn’t make me break out so all yays. The cons though are that it is so hard to apply it pills really easily so you have to be really careful to use just a tiny bit and really press it in and let it set so it doesn’t pill.
Repurchase: Probably not
Lancome Monsieur Big Mascara this is a special occasion mascara it makes my lashes very big and dramatic but it is heavy it does flake a little and is super hard to remove.
Repurchase: No
Clinique High Impact Mascara and Primer this was a do nothing mascara it had no impact lol this is natural mascara defined here.
Repurchase: No
It Cosmetics Bye Bye Pores Pressed I don’t like this is very chalky and I don’t feel like it sets my face well or fills in my pores.
Repurchase: No
Nars Radiance Primer this was a pass for me it was very glimmer and pink and just not for me.
Repurchase: No
Urban Decay Primer Potion Original this is a tried and true I like it works like a charm.
Repurchase: Yes, but a different shade.
Coola Mineral BB Cream this had barely any color. Repurchase: No
Lotion (3)
Bath and Body Works It’s the Balm Body Butter (Marshmallow Magic) I loved this and the scent so so so much it was the perfect light and sweet but not too sweet or overpowering marshmallow scent it lasted me forever as well.
Repurchase: Yes
Fortune Cookie Soap Company Star Command Whipped Cream this one was super fun it was a spilt between purple and green (you know Buzz Lightyear) and had a nice fruity scent. I use up at least one of these a month.
Repurchase: Yes
Hempz Sugarcane & Papaya Herbal Body Moisturizer I really loved this it smelled great it felt great I will totally be trying more from Hempz now.
Repurchase: Yes
Bodycare (7)
Fortune Cookie Soap Company Crackling Bath Crystals in Fire Soul smelled nice and was super pretty. Didn’t fizz and crackle as much as I would have wanted but they were fun. Helped with achy muscles a little but not as much as I want from a bath soak. It was good but not remarkable.
Repurchase: No
Bath and Body Works Get Happy
Shower Gel (White Peach Sangria) this smelled nice and worked fine but wasn’t
so impressive that I need it again.
Repurchase: No
Fortune Cookie Soap Company Glass Slipped Exfoliating Foot Stick the first time I used it, this was pretty good but over time the scrubbies got less scrubby and it didn’t work as well I still got use out of it but it isn’t as good or as convenient as a foot file or pumice stone.
Repurchase: No
Random bath bomb I think it is another FCS one maybe from the mean girls collection but totally not sure. This is one of those tiny bath bombs that not quite enough for the tub so I mixed it with some bath salts and that worked out good. The only problem was this was decorated with like sprinkles that did not dissolve in the bath and left my tub really gross. I hate that.
Repurchase: No
Basin Bath Salts in assorted scents this is one of those things I bought even though I knew I probably wouldn’t like it sometimes Disney just clouds your judgement and you buy stupid things like this because pretty packaging. Basin is a Lush type of company you can find online and at two locations in Disney World. These barely did anything and didn’t leave my skin particularly soft or ease my muscles so totally pointless.
Repurchase: No
Tree Hut Moisturizing Shave Oil in I think its citrus they don’t really name the scents it is weird. This was ok it didn’t work as good as the other scent oddly enough. This is fine but I think I might go back to baby oil for shaving.
Repurchase: Maybe
Eos Shave Cream in Tropical Fruit the only one I liked was the vanilla I feel like I got a shitty shave with the other two scents I have tried. I don’t know that might just be in my head.
Repurchase: No
Spongelle Coconut Verbena Body Wash Infused Buffer this was awesome. These are pretty pricey but for travel it was so nice. I loved having the sponge and body wash all together and I could just use it and throw it out when I was done. This did a really good job of lathering and felt great and smelled good.
Repurchase: Yes
Perfume (3)
Aerin Mediterranean Honeysuckle this was too old lady smelling for my tastes.
Repurchase: No
Giorgio Armani Si Passione this was ok nothing really of note I barely remember it.
Repurchase: No
Juicy Couture Oui this I LOVED. I love this one they came out with for this year.
Repurchase: Yes
Haircare (3)
Marc Anthony Hydrating Coconut Oil this was not your normal light oil that like makes my hair al smooth and shiny and healthy looking this was very heavy and did not absorb well. I hate the feel of this. The mask of this is my favorite but this no.
Repurchase: No
Eva NYC Forget Me Knot Dry Conditioner this smelled weird and didn’t really revive my hair the way I wanted. It was just ok.
Repurchase: No
Wen Pomegranate Cleansing Conditioner I have been using Wen forever. I have been testing out others and still having found anything that beats it for the same price or less but I am working on it. Repurchase: Maybe
