What’s In My Trash? March 2019

Another month gone and some more empties. Anyone else so thrilled that the weather is getting warmer and the days longer? I know I am always makes me feel more positive.

Skincare (8)

Murad AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser this was ok nothing special not a great cleanser not a great exfoliator just not really great at anything. There is probably one more use in there if I cut it open but I am not desperate enough to need to do that. Murad is one of those brands that seems like it’s all going to work so well and I always want to try stuff but it is so expensive but then it’s really hit or miss with me from what I have tried.

Repurchase: No

Origins Clear Improvements Charcoal Honey Mask to Purify and Nourish Mask this was not as good as the original one that does not have honey in it. It was also really hard to get off my skin. I found this to not leave my skin as dry but it also didn’t get rid  of blemishes as well as the original did. The pretty gold tinted black color of this mask was nice though.

Repurchase: No

Derma E Microdermabrasion Scrub this is my favorite scrub I have ever used it smells like lemons and the particles are so tiny but in like a nice cream base it leaves my skin feeling so smooth this is so much better than the expensive Dr. Brandt one.

Repurchase: Yes

First Aid Beauty Ginger & Tumeric Vitamin C Jelly Mask I really really liked this mask. It left my face feeling bright and moisturizered and soft with out being greasy or gross. I really really like this and would definitely consider buying.

Repurchase: Yes

The Face Shop Chia Seed Sheet Mask my skin was feeling super irritated so I figure this would be a good generically soothing and moisturizing mask that might calm it a bit and it did. There wasn’t anything super special about it or bad about it.

Repurchase: No

South Mane Eye Gel I have one set of these left I like them just fine they ad moisture and make my under eyes feel nice but they aren’t the greatest eye gels ever. I tried wearing them while folding laundry ad they didn’t stick on that well through that much movement. These are more like a sit and read or watch tv type of eye gel.

Repurchase: No

Mario Badescu Facial Spray in Orange and Sage I really liked this the orange blossom and sage scent is definitely for me I love the orange plus herbal scent. I use this just because I like the geeral feeling of spraying some moisture on my face and as a replacement for moisturizer when my skin is feeling too oil for moisturizer. I will buy more of this.

Repurchase: Yes

Murad Outsmart Acne Clarifying Treatment this wasn’t that great I mean it was only 1% salicylic acid and didn’t work as well as my favorite the clean and clear one that has 2% for like 6 dollars this is just too expensive for what it is.

Repurchase: No

Random (6)

BodyographyPro Makeup Brush Cleanser I don’t really like liquid cleansers I only use them for my sponges and my oval brushes. I don’t feel like this was great it didn’t really clean well but it also didn’t smell like pure alcohol like so many spray cleansers do.

Repurchase: No

Degree Motion Sense Deodorant Ultraclear this is my preferred line of deodorant.

Repurchase: Yes

Random sponge I can’t remember where you came from and I am so sad because I really really liked you L. This was a super soft and squishy little sponge that I liked to use with cream highlights and for erasing makeup mistakes. Sponge you will be missed RIP.

Repurchase: Yes if I could figure out what it is

Sweet & Shimmer Marshmallow Mint Face & Body Wipes I love how these smell these were move vanilla mint then marshmallow but I love these little packs for like swatches or keeping in my car to wipe my hands stuff like that not for my actual face. I buy them every holiday season when they come out and always get excited for what the new scents are going to be every year.

Repurchase: Yes

Mauloa Paper N Planning Swatch Stencil Coffee Cups

Mauloa Paper N Planning Swatch Stencil Diamond

I liked these stencils they were fine. I ended up not using them as much as I thought I would but I still like them when I do use them. But they are only good for a few sets of swatches before all the stick is gone and they don’t work anymore.

Repurchase: Maybe

Home Scents (5)

Bath and Body Works Wallflower Cinnamon Caramel Swirl I liked this one a lot I got this on crazy couponed sale for 12 cents. This was nice and sweet but not overwhelming I liked it a lot. The wallflowers can be really hit or miss on where the scents actually work or not. Especially since I only really use it in a very small room.

Repurchase: Yes

Febreze Air Effects in Sugared Cranberry I liked this scent and it was good for freshening up linens.

RepurchasE: Maybe

Lucille & Co. Reviving Lemon Basil Room Spray I got this on a whim at Marshalls because I love Lemon and Basil scents and this did smell really really nice but it did not perform well. The scent did not last at all and was definitely not strong enough to cover up and other scents that may be around. 

Repurchase: No

HG Global Lemon Bar Candle I got this in a three pack on Amazon as like a whim. It was an ok candle especially for the price. I don’t like that it doesn’t burn all the way to the end but oh well. I might repurchase these I might not.

Repurchase: Maybe

Sweet & Shimmer Reed Diffuser in Winter Citrus this was cute but produced basically no scent.

Repurchase: No

Lip (2)

L’occitane Verveine Icy Lip Balm this was like a lemon verbena flavor which I liked I a lot. Normally I would never spend this much on a lip balm but what happened was I was at an outlet mall on vacation and I didn’t have a lip balm for the trip and was panicking so I bought this. It lasted a really long time ad was nice but I don’t think they sell this anymore and even if they did I wasn’t so impressed that it would be worth repurchasing at that price point.

Repurchase: No

Carmex Classic Lip Balm I love Carmex but only I the normal chapstick tube I feel like it isn’t the same in the squeezey tube.

Repurchase: No

Makeup (3)

L’oreal Voluminous Butterfly Mascara in Midnight Black I liked this mascara a lot. It is really light and natural it does give that long fluttery butterfly like look which I like when I’m just throwing on some mascara and eyeliner but this is definitely only for light makeup looks this can’t hold up to a more dramatic eyeshadow look it just disappears. I liked it for the more natural easy light look.

Repurchase: Maybe

L’oreal Unlimited Mascara in 235 Blackest Black I received this for free in exchange for an honest review/post on instagram. I liked this it added a lot of length and curl to my lashes as well as looked really pretty on my makeup stand because it stands up and looks kinda classy and old school. I also like how the brush handle bends it makes it a lot easier to apply. I don’t like how quickly this got all gloopy and thick in the bottle and I am not into rehydrating my mascaras.

Repurchase: Maybe

Urban Decay Primer Potion this is like the og primer that everyone knows and loves it’s a great primer it holds on to shadow it keeps them from creasing it lasts forever like this tiny ass tube took me like 2 years to use its insane. My only thing with it currently is I’m sorta not into the primers that dry down clear I am more into like a white or really blanked out type of primer at the moment. But I do love this primer I have another and I’m sure I will buy more in the future.

Repurchase: Yes

Lotion (1)

Delectable Triple Moisture Body Lotion I Coconut & Cream I love the scent of this it is like a warm coconut scent that kinda reminds me of coconuts and cookies idk. I love the scent but the lotion is kinda meh it is really thick and moisturizing but it leaves kinda of a residue on my skin that I am not a fan of.

Repurchase: Maybe

Bodycare (2)

Basin Satsuma Shea Scrub the Basin scrubs are just so amazing they are so soft but they scrub your skin so nicely you feel so soft and smooth and silk ad moisturized after ugh so good. And this lasted me a really long time like 8/9 months with anywhere from 1 to 4 uses a month. So good. The Satsuma scent is my favorite it is such a bright yummy citrus. There is an orange vanilla one I have my eye on now, but I have a shit ton of scrubs I NEED to get through first. I am going to save the container it is really nice and keeps the water from the shower out of the product and I am going to put my scrubs that come in paper bags (like why?) in it.

Repurchase: Yes

Fortune Cookie Soap Company Off We Go Body Wash this wasn’t my favorite scent but the body wash was good.

Repurchase: No

Perfume (1)

Gourmand Pistachio Brulee Perfume this is what I call an at home perfume. The kind of perfume that doesn’t have a strong scent or last very long. This had a light sweet smell but like very faint and disappears after like a few minutes. I don’t like perfumes like that. This is the kind of thing I would spray on just to hang out at home in.

Repurchase: No

Declutter (5)

Lancome Hydra Zen Anti-Stress Moisturizing Cream Gel this gave me an allergic reaction it has something related to roses in it. Suffice to say it stressed the fuck out of my skin rather than de stressing it. The last thing I needed was an allergic reaction the night I used this so I am extra mad at this product.

Chella Tantalizing Taupe Eyebrow Cream this is too hard to get out of the tiny little end cap that the product is in and it ends up looking like nothing or is all goopy in my eyebrows. It was weirdly a good color for me but definitely not a product for me.

Ulra Limitless Lashes this mascara smudges horribly and doesn’t really do anything for my lashes. I used this a few times and could not find a way to make it work for me and not smudge.

Z Skin Acne Spot Treatment I tried this for a long time but it does nothing to treat or prevent spots at all so this has to go it is a waste of my time. It is also a really thick white cream that is hard to rub in.

Note Cosmetics Long Lash Mascara I am not one to like give up on a mascara after one use so that is how you know this is bad. Usually even if I hate a mascara I will power through and use it since I get rid of them pretty frequently because germs and I don’t want any issues with my eyes. This was awful I like a dry mascara formula but this was so dry that like barely anything came off on my lashes and it kinda stuck them together but not in a clump thick way but like they were combed bad way this was truly awful no length no volume and it legit straightened my naturally curly lashes out this was terrible.

What’s In My Trash? February 2019

I didn’t do great this month most of what I “used” up were actually items I am decluttering. Oh well not a goo month but I feel like stressed with out a monthly goal and alot more free to just use what I feel like using and switch products around rather then commiting to one product start to finish. Con to that is I am not using up as much stuff.

And here is most of my empties for the month alot didn’t fit in the picture so alot of the declutters I just pulled out so the actual empties could shine.

Skincare (5)

Freeman Polishing Charcoal + Black Sugar Gel Mask + Scrub I didn’t like this it was too hard to rinse off my face it was a very sticky gel formula. This might make a nice body scrub since the full size tube is large and affordable.

Repurchase: No

Kate Somerville Wrinkle Warrior 2 in 1 Plumping Moisturizer this made me break out so I wouldn’t use this again.

Repurchase: No

Caudalie Vinoperfect Radiance Serum this legit did nothing and I used it for weeks plenty of time to see results. So this just isn’t for me I have another sample of this that I will declutter and pass along since this doesn’t work for me.

Repurchase: No

NuFace Prep-n-Glow Dual Sided Cloth these are my favorite. I like the exfoliating side and then the softer side. They clean well are gentle but still exfoliating.

Repurchase: Yes

Goldfaden MD Facial Detox Mask I really liked this mask a lot I felt like it did a lot to clear up my skin when I would be breaking out but it is a $65 mask like I just don’t ever see that being feasible to buy so I am super sad this is gone. I made this mask  last by using it really sparingly only on problem spots. It is really good though.

Repurchase: Maybe

Random (3)

CharBrush Family Pack this came with 4 charcoal tooth brushes and 4 tins of the CharBrush powder charcoal toothpaste I really loved this I actually have on toothbrush left but I am calling it all used up. I don’t have a picture because like this is messy as hell there is no way to save it. I loved this charcoal tooth powder it made my teeth feel clean and my gums feel healthy. I am trying another one now but will likely go back to this.

Repurchase: Yes

Seventh Generation Free & Clear Baby Wipes I picked these up because they were Super Cheap they were on sale and I found a coupon I got then for a like a $1.00 maybe even less I don’t remember. These were awful those I got them to remove swatches and they were not great and they left cotton fuzzy bits all over my skin these would be horrible for trying to clean up a kid I imagine. They are decently thick though.

Repurchase: No

Pacifica Cherry Kisses Hydrating Lipstick Wipes these are amazing and I don’t know why no one is talking about these. The are cherry flavored and like a hydrating wipe to take liquid lips off. They work really well and they taste good unlike a lot of removers and they don’t leave your lips in pain or dried out. They are just the best way to remove the lip colors that don’t want to come off I love them so much.

Repurchase: Yes, have a whole stockpile.

Home Scents (3)

Fortune Cookie Soap Company 17 Cherry Tree Lane this smelled so good in the tin like a awesome cherry cream but it didn’t have a great scent throw I was really disappointed you could kinda smell it when you would like leave the room and come back but that was about it.

Repurchase: No

Sweet & Shimmer Room Spray in Salted Caramel this smelled really strongly of alcohol. You could smell the salted caramel but this isn’t anything special. This is the same like cheap cute stuff that comes out every Christmas from Ulta and I always pick up odds and ends because it is cute and fun.

Repurchase: Maybe

HG Global Baked Apple Pie Candle I got this in a random three pack on Amazon and they were actually super nice candles they don’t burn all the way to the bottom I’ve notice but they smell nice they burn for awhile and they are cheap.

Repurchase: Yes

Lip (2)

ChapStick Sugar Cookie I had two of these I’ve now used both up I liked them of these were a bit waxy I rather have something more moisturizing feeling but the sugar cookie flavor was really nice.

Repurchase: No

Neutrogena Collagen Kiss Collagen Infused Lip Mask This was really nice I liked this. It left my lips feeling really soft and a bit more hydrated and less chapped then they were before I used this.

Repurchase: Maybe

Lotion (4)

Fortune Cookie Soap Company Mistress of All Evil Body Frosting I loved this to death. This was the kinda product that I was savoring and trying to make last. This is a thick frosting like consistency that turns into a nice dry oil feel on the skin. The scent of this was so amazing it was so sweet and warm and delicious like just delicious cake but not overly fake sweet just so fucking good.

Repurchase: Yes

Fortune Cookie Soap Company Whipped Cream in Boo, As If this smelled good I like these little whipped cream tubs because they last a decent amount and you get to try differed scents all the time I like them. I am finding that I actually might prefer potted lotions to tube ones for my hands.

Repurchase: Yes

Gold Bond Ultimate Healing Aloe Lotion I need Aquarphor one day and couldn’t find it and this was there so I grab this to try thinking it  would be similar. It is not it doesn’t work as well and if you out it on chapped skin the way you would with Aquaphor it stings!

Repurchase No

Bath and Body Works Coco Shea In-Shower Coconut Oil Body Lotion I found this to be a little to greasy for my liking but my girlfriend really really liked this. it is pricey compared to other better in shower moisturizer but this does smell alot better then any of the other ones I’ve tried.

Repurchase: Not for me but maybe for my gf

Perfume (1)

Juicy Couture Couture La La Perfume I love the scent of this perfume but it does not stick on my skin at all which is really sad. This is a very light fresh slightly fruity scent very pretty.

Repurchase: No

Haircare (1)

Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Night Cap Overnight Perfector I hated the feeling of this in my hair it dries down really heavy and white and flakey looking so you have to wash it out even though the instructions say you don’t have to. It doesn’t really do all that much for my hair either. Maybe made it a little softer and straighter but not by much.

Repurchase: No

Declutter (24)

Viva La Juicy Viva La Body Lotion this dries out my skin so bad so it has to go.

Caudalie Vinoperfect Radiance Serum just doesn’t work for me.

Estee Edit Mattified Lipsticks/Transformer omg the texture of these was awful and grainy and messy and just gross and looked awful. I couldn’t even get through the two or three applications in this sample.

Nomad Light Infusion Powder in Positano Sunrise to powdery and not a color I am super drawn too as a highlight so this is really just taking up space in my life and I know I won’t use it.

Milk Makeup Liquid Strobe this had so much potential to be something I liked but it did not perform it always came out so patchy ad inconsistent and that made it unusable because sometimes it was all glitter sometimes it was nothing and sometimes it actually came out with the color.

L’Oreal Infallible Paints Liquid Eyeshadow In 304 Navy Yard so I really actually like these they have/had I don’t think these are around anymore really interesting colors but they are a bit finicky to work with they take a lot of blending and layering and fussing. So I decided to keep the ones that had really interesting colors so I can use them for liners or accents our whatever so this more normal shade one is going because I needed to do a massive liquid/cream shadow declutter since I so rarely reach for them.

Bare Minerals Whipped Velvet Long Wear Eye Color in Peach Divine

Bare Minerals Whipped Velvet Long Wear Eye Color in Magnificent Cocoa

I just am not a big enough fan of these colors to use them so I am letting them go. I kept one to try as a highlighter and I am going to play around with it like that and see if it works or it will also get decluttered.

Profusion Metallic Liquid Eyeshadow in Siena I got a whole kit with 2 or 3 cream shadows and a liner and a pigment for like a $3.00 so I am not that fussed that I am getting rid of this I am just eh about the color.

Absolute New York Pure Metal Veil in Gumetal I have never opened this in the 3 or 4 years it’s been in my drawer this is a sign that it is not for me.

Butter London Glazen Eye Gloss in Moonshine

Butter London Glazen Eye Gloss in Icing

I just don’t like these at all they are gross and have a ton of glitter fallout and what is the point. I kept one to try as a highlighter and I am going to play around with it like that and see if it works or it will also get decluttered.

Maybelline Color Tattoo in 35 Tough as Taupe
Maybelline Color Tattoo in 40 Tenacious Teal
Maybelline Color Tattoo in 50 Edgy Emerald
Maybelline Color Tattoo in 45 Bold Gold
Maybelline Color Tattoo in 55 Inked in Pink
Maybelline Color Tattoo in 100 Dramatic Black

Surprisingly these are still creamy and usable despite being 4 years old I just really don’t
use them I kept like 2 shades that I felt really attached to but these need to go I never
reach for them. I really liked them for a while and did use them they are good. If you like
cream shadows that are pigmented and easy to blend these are worth it. They just are not
for me anymore.          

Pacifica Tuscan Blood Orange Super Hydrating Lotion Wipes these are so dry there are no lotion on these at all.

FCS Sea Salt Hair Spray I don’t use sea salt sprays in my hair they are too drying.

Bumble and Bumble Bb. Curl Defining Crème I don’t wear my hair curly and even if I did it wouldn’t be curly enough to need a product like this.

Palmers Coconut Oil Conditioning Shampoo I just won’t ever use this.

Madam CJ Walker Curl Whip Styling Souffle another curling cream that I just don’t have use for.

Random Perfume um I don’t remember what this is or wear it came from and it has no label, but I wasn’t into the scent of this.

What’s In My Trash? January 2019

Welcome to the first empties post of the new year!! Started off the month really strong! So first I am going to go into what the goals and new things I’ll be doing with my empties this year and then I will go into the products I used up.

So first this years goal is 600 products. Instead of a monthly goal my goal will be to use up or move out 600 products this year.

I also will be keeping track of the approximate value of the products I use up and the approximate amount I paid for the products I used up. And category totals. Just for funsies and because I am really curious as to how much legit “money” I am going through each month.

I will calculate values the best I can there are going to be things that I can’t get or don’t know the values of. For how much I paid there are going to be plenty of things that I don’t know or remember but I will do my best. It is only an approximate value.

Skincare (16)

Bath and Body Works Sea You Soon Sea Minerals + Hyaluronic Acid Sheet Mask this is definitely not a high quality mask with amazing ingredients all the advertised ingredients are on the bottom of the ingredient list but it does feel nice on the skin. They don’t make this anymore you know how Bath and Body Works is like everything is friggen limited edition it is ridiculous. I would not repurchase even if I could because it is expensive for what it is but I didn’t hate it.

Repurchase: No

Origins RitualiTea Mind Over Mate Invigorating Powder Face Mask they don’t make this anymore and I am not really surprised. It smells awful like it smells like dog food and that smell is on your face. It is also really clumpy on your face and hard to remove and it like clumps up and makes a mess in your sink it was just gross. It did make my skin feel smooth and tight in a good way but there are far better masks. I am not shocked that this is no longer around.

Repurchase: No

Juice Beauty Hydrating Mist this was ok it wasn’t great it was refreshing but also sticky. This also claims to be a setting spray and a refreshing spray do not spray this over your makeup it is not a setting spray. It leaves your makeup sticky and it starts to rub off.

Repurchase: No

Mario Badescu Facial Spray Aloe, Cucumber, and Green Tea I didn’t really love this I have the new one with the sage and orange that just came out and then I like a lot. I don’t love the scent of cucumbers (I got food poisoning off cucumbers once and its kinda ruined them for me.) and aloe isn’t great for my skin personally so this is like not an ideal product. Everyone raves about this so I felt like I needed to try it. It wasn’t any better than any other spray I’ve used.

Repurchase: No

Garnier Skin Active Refreshing Remover Cleansing Towelettes these were pretty nice they were very soft didn’t leave my skin sticky. I really liked these.

Repurchase: Maybe

First Aid Beauty Coconut Water Cream I didn’t really like this it was just kinda a meh cream and it didn’t even smell like coconuts.

Repurchase: No

Ren Evercalm Ultra Comforting Rescue Mask this is a good mask it really is but I have some mixed feelings about it. On the positive side it does good things for my skin it is really comforting if my skin is like freaking out like dry and oily and dehydrated but weird breakout in one spot and like all the things at once this really does help to just balance everything out and calm it all down. It also smells pretty comforting. What I hate about this is the textureof this mask. It goes on kinda like a clay mask which is fine but then as it warms up ad does its thing it turns into like a thick heavy oil grease type thing. It feels so heavy and slimey and it is kinda hard to wash off and I don’t like the slimey oily thick feeling of it. The fumes/scent as it makes this change also makes my eyes sting and water even though I can’t actually smell anything off it kinda weird. Idk how I feel about this I would use it again but I probably won’t buy it.

Repurchase: Probably Not

BioRepublic Pomegrante Crush Illuminating Fiber Mask I didn’t like this sheet mask at all. It left my face super super sticky which I hate.

Repurchase: No

NuFace Prep-n-Glow Dual Sided Cloth these are my favorite wipes I love them make my feels feel so clean and good but they are very expensive so I use them sparingly.

Repurchase: Yes

Pur The Grinch Mask Sampler Purple Pore Punisher this was ok it is a peel of mask it left my skin feeling smooth but it really didn’t do anything for my pores. This also has a really fruity scent to the mask not as bad and nauseating as the Glamglow one but enough that it needs to be noted. I mostly bought this because the ornament containers were adorable and I wanted them. The containers are definitely reusable.

Repurchase: No

Pur The Grinch Mask Sampler Soak It Up this was not that great this was not nearly as moisturizing as the Freeman mask or other hydrating masks I have tried.

Repurchase: No

The Face Shop Real Nature Mask in Olive I was worried that this would be greasy gross on but it was a great face mask my face felt refreshed and plumped and hydrated. It fit my face and sat on it well it didn’t have any scent it was really nice.

Repurchase: Yes

Global Beauty Care Sea Kelp Spa Treatment Mask this was a really goopy sheet mask there was so much serum on it it also fit my face terribly despite all that I really really liked it. It left my skin feeling really soft and hydrated. My skin/face/life felt so puffy and irritated and awful and after this mask everything just felt so much better. I am pretty sure this is like a super cheap and I have no idea where it came from but I liked it a lot.

Repurchase: Yes

No7 Lift & Luminate Triple Action Serum I hated this it smelled really weird like heavily fragranced with generic fancy skincare scent if anyone know what I am talking about also I felt like this didn’t do anything for my skin at all.

Repurchase: No

Dr. Jart+ Water Drop Hydrating Moisturizer this was insane it comes out like a gel but the second it touches your skin it melts into like legit water. It feels like water on the skin it is really cool and feels really light and nice and watery on the skin this is definitely more of a summer moisturizer the winter but I liked it. Even it if was slightly messy/drippy to apply.

Repurchase: Maybe

Dermalogica Age Smart Rapid Reveal Peel this was not at all uncomfortable or burn-y like I expected it to be. My skin was definitely much softer and smoother after but that was the only real benefit I have seen so far. So I don’t know that it is worth $8.50 a mask even though it was nice and made my skin soft.

Repurchase: No

Random (3)

Farmacy Honey Savior All-in-One Repair Salve this is just a honey based slave it is kinda like Vaseline but different texture serves the same kinda purpose though. I put this on my elbows and my lips. Honesty I used it to just use it up I found it chilling in a random drawer it didn’t belong in. This was ok but I have tried better healing salves like my fortune cookie ones or even Aquaphor.

Repurchase: No

Degree Motion Sense Deodorant Shower Clean Motion Sense deodorants are my favorite I feel like the scent really effects the effectiveness which I know is odd but hey what ever. I liked this one.

Repurchase: Yes

Hum Nutrition Daily Cleanse Vitamins can’t really tell much with only three days of vitamins but they didn’t make me feel sick or taste bad so that’s good.

Repurchase: Maybe

Home Scents (3)

Columbia Candle Supply White Tea with Blueberries Wax Melt I loved the scent of this. It had a great scent throw and I love a good blueberry scent. I don’t think they make this scent anymore which makes me really sad I went back on the Etsy shop to order some and they didn’t have a listing for this scent. The wax melts last forever from this company.

Repurchase: Yes

Columbia Candle Supply Blackberry Amber I was hoping the blackberry scent would overpower the amber scent and I would like this but it was not that way the amber scent was very heavy and I don’t like the very heavy warm feminine musk type scent of amber.

Repurchase: No

Bath and Body Works Hot Cocoa & Cream Wallflower 100% my most favorite scent I love it so so much. Smells like a Hershey’s bar.

Repurchase: Yes

Lip (3)

Glow for a Cause Lip Love in Flirt this is one of those months where like all the open things run out at the same time. This was ok it had a nice feel on the lips but I wasn’t a huge fan of the color or the scent/flavor. It also was really messy because it melted pretty easily.

Repurchase: No

Softlips Tinted Lip Conditioner in Pearl I liked the feel and flavor of this sorta tingly menthol vanilla mint but I hate the pearl finish it is a full on frosted baby pink like I can only wear this to bed because it looks so bad.

Repurchase: No

Fresh Sugar Lip Caramel Hydrating Balm this was just eh it tasted goof but it was not hydrating at all like this was the opposite of a hydrating lip treatment it was more just a nice feeling balm that tasted and smelled good but did nothing at all for my lip health. I wanted to try this for awhile and was so excited to get it but I am glad I got to use it and see that I don’t really like it at all.

Repurchase: No

Makeup (4)

Lancôme Dual Finish Multi-Tasking Powder & Foundation in One All Day Wear this was a sample in a shade way way way to dark for me but I just chucked it on to see what the formula was like while I was doing chores around the house and I actually really liked how it sat on my skin and I like powder foundation a lot so this interests me.

Repurchase: Maybe

Mac False Lashes Waterproof Mascara I’m pretty Eh about Mac Mascaras.

Repurchase: No

Younique Moodstruck 3D Fiber Lashes I really liked and enjoyed using this when I would use it. It would make my lashes look so long and full and fluffy. I probably wouldn’t buy this one again because it is really pricey but I am really curious to try some other brands.

Repurchase: Maybe

Smashbox Covershot Golden Hour Eye Palette Card Sample mostly I just wanted to see if this would even work and it did there was just enough shadow to do one eye look but I hate Smashbox eyeshadows they just don’t have the type of pigment and impact I want I have like two Covershot palettes and I am not a huge fan.

Repurchase: No

Lotion (5)

Mickey Mouse Honey Almond Scented Hand Cream well this was super adorable and the scent was weirdly comforting and nostalgic but the lotion is awful. It left my skin feeling so so dry. I have another on in a different scent and I will use it because its cute but it is not a good lotion at all.

Repurchase: No

Bath and Body Works Marshmallow Magic Body Cream I don’t love the body creams from Bath and Body Works I am trying to use them up. I loved this scent though. I would repurchase this scent if it ever came back.

Repurchase: No

Pacifica Lotion Wipes Malibu Lemon Blossom these kinda suck they have like no lotion one them barely any scent they are totally pointless.

Repurchase: No

Fortune Cookie Soap Company Aloe Me Body Whip in Good Zombie I loved the scent of this so so so much it was a caramel apple type scent and it just smelled like fall and Halloween and I loved it. Unfortunately I don’t love the Aloe Me Body Whips things that have to much Aloe in them actually dry my skin out my skin just does not like Aloe. So I am going to try to eliminate most of the aloe lotions I have barring the ones that smell too good to pass on.

Repurchase: No (But I’d buy anything I could in this scent)

Sweet & Shimmer Moisturizing Foot Mask in Salted Caramel this was fine its booties with lotion and it moisturizers your feet but it is not a whole lot different than throwing some lotion in fuzzy socks so it isn’t really worth the extra product to me.

Bodycare (1)

Rituals The Ritual of Hammam Foaming Shower Gel this was ok I didn’t love the scent it was a little too heavy on the rosemary and I wasn’t feeling it I the shower. This comes out as like a gel and then foams up when it gets the slightest bit wet. It was a fine body wash but I was nothing to exciting.

Repurchase: No

Perfume (1)

Juicy Couture La La Perfume I love the scent on this one it is nice and light and great for summer. My only problem with it is that it does not stick on my skin at all it is gone after like an hour or two which sucks. I won’t seek this out since it has been discontinued but I wouldn’t be against buying a small size if it was a really good price. I do love it it just doesn’t work great for me. I always feel so accomplished when I use up a full size perfume.

Repurchase: Maybe

Haircare (6)

Fortune Cookie Soap Restorative Hair Mask in Rebel Princess I didn’t love this hair mask it was quite thick and I don’t feel like my hair liked it that much it made my hair kinda fluffy in a bad way with not a ton of moisture.

Repurchase: No

Coco & Eve Like a Virgin Hair Coconut & Fig Masque this smelled more floral then of figs and coconuts this was only good for one use on my hair and didn’t do a whole lot for me. It made my hair feel soft and definitely less frizzy but didn’t add shine or any hydrating so only two of its four claims held true. This was just eh for me I have masks I like a lot better.

Repurchase: No

Living Proof No Frizz Nourishing Oil Treatment this was not the best oil I have every used it was weirdly dry ad greasy so it was too much of a fast drying oil for it to do my hair any good in the moisturizing department but greasy enough to leave my hair looking greasy. It didn’t do much for frizz either.

Fekkai Brilliant Glossing Shampoo

Fekkai Brilliant Glossing Conditioner

Talking about them as a set since I used them that way. This was a pretty good shampoo and conditioner it didn’t fry my hair out but it also didn’t make my hair glossy. It did give it a lot of volume but left it a bit static-y but it is also like -5 degrees out and the heat can also make my hair static-y so that might not be from this.

Repurchase: No

Declutter (10)

Fortune Cookie Soap Company Aloe Me Whipped Cream in Cap I don’t get along with the Aloe Mes they don’t work well for my skin so I am gifting most of these to my gf who does really like them. I only kept one full size one because I love the scent so much so I can at least use that up and get to enjoy the scent.

Fortune Cookie Soap Company Aloe Me Whipped Cream in Summer Lovin’ I will also still get to use these as they aren’t going far away from my life just out of my stash lol.

Fortune Cookie Soap Company Cooling Aloe Me Whipped Cream in Chilly Down this one actually is cooling and minty I really hated it, it made me feel so cold but my gf adored it so she’ll be happy.

Fortune Cookie Soap Company Spray Lotion in Aqua Scum I love the spray lotions but I am not fond of the smell so this is going off to my gf too she also loves Finding Nemo so she’ll like that.

I decluttered like 20+ random carded samples I had I am just counting them as one item.

Ulta Beauty Tinted Eye Primer in Satin Blush this I didn’t really get. Like why would I want a pink shimmer sheer eyebase. This is more like a very light sheer cream eyeshadow so idk weird. As a base it makes your eyeshadow get all chunky and odd. So no go.

Tarte eyeliner in Antique Gold this just doesn’t have enough pigment for me but they are very soft and pleasant to use. They don’t make this on anymore I got it in a set with a ton of other colors like 3 or 4 years ago.

Pur The Grinch Mask Sampler Dirty Detox this was totally unusable I don’t know if it dried up or that’s just how this mask is but it was like clay paste that just balled up in chunks and rolled off my face as I tried to put it on.

Juicy Couture Body Soufflee this is in the original perfume scent which is my least favorite scent that they made. The lotion is so strong like the scent is so overwhelming that I can’t use it it lingers for hours and hours. So if that is something you like you would love this and it is a pretty decent lotion but smelling that intense perfumey scent for so long makes me feel sick and gives me a headache.

Urban Decay Floral Shadow Box remember when Urban decay palettes looked like this? I really miss old school Urban Decay style like I wish they do a little retro throwback collection I would eat that shit up. I mean this even came with sponge tipped applicators that I used since I didn’t know better. This was the first palette I ever bought and started a love (addiction) to makeup and Urban Decay. I am not actually decluttering it I am saving it for sentimental reasons but it is just too old and past its prime it isn’t useable any more so I am moving it out of my palette drawer. All the shades have major dips in them because I used it a lot because at one time for like 6 months this was my only palette and then I bought like 2 more Urban Decay Palettes and things slowly grew from there. The glitter fallout on all these shades was terrible but I like loved it so hard I did not even care that I had glitter on my face and in my contacts. I’d pair this up with super heavy eyeliner and I was good to go. I still rock the very heavy eyeliner but I like to think my eyeshadow choices have improved since then.
