What’s In My Trash? June 2026

Well got a little back on track this month but not as much catching up as I really wanted. I have a good handle full of products that are almost used up that just didn’t get there.

Avette Coconut Mild Foam Cleanser I don’t like cream to foam cleansers so this was fine but not for me.

Repurchase: No

Kiehl’s Rare Earth Deep Pore Cleansing Masque me and Kiehl’s just don’t vibe together. This was fine it did clean out my pores I don’t love a super drying mud mask though because they are so hard to wash off.

Repurchase: No

Naisture Tea Tree Mask Pack this was fine I did wake up with a pimple after using this but I think that was more this bringing it out because I’ve been working in heat and dirt a lot lately so I think that was a helpful thing.

Repurchase: Maybe

Fre Glow Me Tinted Moisturizer SPF 30 this did not break me out and it looked fine on my skin but it had an almost gritty texture that I didn’t love.

Repurchase: No

Infinitive Beauty Crystal Collagen Gold Powder Eye Mask these were not great they were so thick you had to stay perfectly still to keep them on and I like to do things while I wear eye patches.

Repurchase: No

Garnier SkinActive Aqua Boost Fresh-Mix Sheet Mask really didn’t like this there was so much serum it was so drippy and it’s the cheaper type of Hylaronic acid so it was super sticky.

Repurchase: No

dani beauty Dewy Face Toner Mist this might as well have been water it was cheap if I needed a really cheap spray I would get it but I wouldn’t seek it out over trying something new or one I really like.

Repurchase: No

Sweet & Shimmer Face and Body Mini Wipes in Frosted Vanilla I loved these little scented wipes I hate that Ulta only does the unscented ones now.

Repurchase: Yes

Old Spice Antiperspirant in Peppermint Slopes this was really nice I like the scent I would get it again if it comes out for Christmas again.

Repurchase: Yes

FCS Scent Diffuser in Jelly of the Month Club this was not a great scent. I am really trying to use up the home scents I have and not get new ones and take a break for a bit to just have less items to manage in my life. For a little while.

Repurchase: No

Carmex Lip Balm in Merry Berry did not like this flavor as much as the other flavors but still really  great Carmex squeezey tubes are really a top ten lip balm for me.

Repurchase: Yes

Lime Crime Venus Liner in Baby’s Breathe I think this company went out of business maybe from all the scandals. This was a great white but hard to use and dried out fairly quickly.

Repurchase: No

Robinson Family Soaps Blissful Summer Salt Soak this was pretty terrible I didn’t like the scent and it left bits all through my tub that were hard to clean.

Repurchase: No

FCS Body Bomb in I Love You Most this had no scent and no color.

Repurchase: No

365 Coconut Milk Bath Bomb this was pretty good it had no color which I get this is a more natural brand. I could really smell the coconut milk and it really made my skin feel nice.

Repurchase: Maybe

Not Your Mothers Tough Love Intense Bonding Treatment this was fine not as good as Olapex.

Repurchase: No

Amika Normcore Signature Shampoo I really didn’t like this it left my hair dry.

Repurchase: No

Garnier SkinActive Aqua Boost Fresh-Mix Sheet Mask I didn’t like this so getting rid of the other one I had in my stock.


For a mid year check in I need to use up 54 more items and get nothing new in to meet my goal for the year it feels doable now but lets see.

What’s In My Trash? March 2026

So not alot used up this month but I also didn’t bring anything new into my life so that is kinda cool.

La Roche-Posay Anthelios Light Fluid Sunscreen SPF 60 this was very heavy and white for my taste and I think it broke me out.

Repurchase: No

Tony Moly Wonder Ceramide Mochi Water Cream this was fine a very basic moisturizer.

Repurchase: Maybe

Kopari Bright as Day Sheer Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 I don’t really love the texture of it and it is a bit messy but it’s a perfectly fine tinted sunscreen which is good because I have a full size of it I need to get through.

Repurchase: No

Bath and Body Works Wallflower in Cereal Milk Soft Serve this whole collection was so disappointing. I have one left and then I’m out of Wallflowers. I don’t buy them often anymore.

Repurchase: No

FCS Fa La La La La La Scent Diffuser this was nice smelled good.

Repurchase: No

Alice in Wonderland Lip Balm in Strawberry this was a nice lip balm.

Repurchase: No

Lush Snow Fairy Body Lotion this was not a good lotion it smelled good but it was really sticky and not moisturizing.

Repurchase: No

Dove Body Lotion with Oat Milk this was fine it was a basic body moisturize I usually like to have a big bottle just around for when I don’t want to waste my fancier smaller lotions on larger areas.

Repurchase: Maybe

FCS Dual-Phase Perfume in Water Has Memory this was really nice very sweet smelling. Sad I won’t be able to get this anymore.

Repurchase: Can’t

Kenra Platinum Invisible Top Coat this leave like a hairspray texture on my hair that I am not fond of.

Repurchase: No

Redken Acidic Color Gloss I think this actually took some color out of my hair.

Repurchase: No

Naturalicious Spanish Almond Regrowth Oil the design of this bottle was awful and I didn’t see any growth from it.

Repurchase: No

StarFace Pimple Patches I tried the blue ones I’m almost done with the green ones and I didn’t like either so I am not compelled to try these. The shape has a hard time staying on my face and not curling up and the surface area that is in contact with the pimple is just to small these don’t work for me.

Hempz Original Body Moisturizer I hate the shape of the bottle its very hard to squeeze and I don’t love the scent enough to struggle.

Walmart Fall 2025 Beauty Box Subscription Box Review

Walmart Beauty Box

Cost: $6.98

Cycle: Every Quarter/Season

What is it: Every season Walmart sends a little sample products of all sorts of health and beauty type items. It used to be a free sample box with $5 shipping. But they have now changed it to a $6.98 box with free shipping with the promise of better and more full size items.


This is legit my favorite box every time it comes around.

Dove Body Scrub in Himalayan Salt & Rose Oil

Full Size: 3.5 oz

Full Size Cost: $4.99

This is a really good scrub line. I can’t use this one because of the rose but I have other scents and they are a really fine gritty scrub and I like that.

Hi-Pro-Pac Keratin Protein No-Frizz Hair Intense Protein Treatment

Full Size: 50 ml

Full Size Cost: $1.77

I love a hair treatment pack especially when this is enough to get two uses out of for my hair.

Good Molecules Hydrating Facial Cleansing Gel

Full Size: 200 ml

Full Size Cost: $11.97

Sample Size: 8 ml

Total Value: $0.48

I am sure I have tried this before. I will use it but i don’t love a face wash in a sachet it just is not a good distribution system.

Jergens Vanilla Crush Body Lotion

Full Size: 414 ml

Full Size Cost: $7.47

Sample Size: 29 ml

Total Value: $0.52

I love a vanilla body lotion this will for sure get used.

Palmer’s Tahitian Vanilla Cream

Full Size: 260 g

Full Size Cost: $13.97

Sample Size: 10 g

I am excited to try this I think I will use this tonight. I usually like Palmer’s products and this scent sounds really good.

Plum Beauty Facial Shaping Razors

Full Size: 3 Razors

Full Size Cost: $4.97

I do use facial razors like this for dermaplaning and its nice to not have to pay for them.

Essence Hydra Kiss Lip Oil in 05 Midnight Mystery

Full Size: 4 ml

Full Size Cost: $4.99

This is more a sticky gloss then a lip oil so I feel like I am going to end up decluttering it. But i will give it a try.


Not the best value but all really usable items that will get used up quickly which is great.
