What’s In My Trash? June 2024

nightmareb4

Rough month for empties. I used practically nothing. I did do some auditing of like “lost” items somethings that were still on the list that have just poofed into nonexistence so the numbers have gone down alot but I will always wonder where those items disappeared too lol.

Skincare (3)

Earth to Skin Super Fruits Prickly Pear Sheet Mask this was nice very milk ton of serum there was a bunch I was able to use on my chest and arms. it smelled really scented at first but it faded away quick.

Repurchase: No

No7 Future Renew Damage Reversal Day Cream SPF 25 this was very thick and sticky and white.

Repurchase: No

Bath Apothecary Face Scrub in Wayward Children this didn’t have enough particles to be really scrubby but it still did the job as a face wash.

Repurchase: No

Random (1)

Dr. Scholl’s Tired Achy Feet Soothing & Reviving Foot Mask these are really soothing like they don’t fully fix a problem but they sure help take the edge of a little.

Repurchase: Yes

Home Scents (2)

Bath and Body Works Sunshine Mimosa Fine Fragrance Mist I used this as a room spray it was fine.

Repurchase: No

Bath and Body Works Single Wick Candle in Suntan I love this scent it smells like sunscreen and the beach. This candle is from at least two years ago and still smells good but I feel like the scent throw has really gone downhill.

Repurchase: I don’t know

Lip (1)

Vaseline Lip Therapy Rosy Lips this wasn’t really tinted it was fine I like the aloe one more.

Repurchase: No

Makeup (1)

Nyx Plump Right Back Plumping Serum Primer this is a really nice primer it does give some plumping/filling to the skin and its sticky enough to really hold on to make up but with out breaking me out a way a lot of really sticky primes can.

Repurchase: Maybe

Lotion (1)

Body Butter in Lila Reyes I loved this I wish I knew the brand but there is nothing on the packaging. This just had a very unique like calming minty sleepytime sent and the lotion was very moisturizing and light.

Repurchase: I wish I could.

Bodycare (1)

Bath and Body Works Shower Gel in Wild Strawberry Leaf this was fine it barely had a scent.

Repurchase: No

Haircare (3)

IGK Pay Day Instant Repair Shampoo I really liked these. They worked well for my hair.

Repurchase: Already Have

Artic Fox Hair Color in Sunset Orange it doesn’t last long but it is easy to use smells good easy to wash out. So I go back to it.

Repurchase: Yes

Bumble and Bumble bb Hairdresser’s Invisible Oil Mask I actually really liked this it made my hair feel really thick and healthy.

Repurchase: Maybe

Declutter (4)

The Balm Bronzilla I didn’t really like how this picked up on my brush and I have 50 million bronzers so this can go.

V. Kosmetik Lightweight Powder Blush in Natural Kiss I really liked the color of this blush unfortunately it broke so that really sucks.

Tattoo Junkee Lip Gloss in Dreamer this just bleeds everywhere.

Brow Bar By Reema Bombshell Brow Kit in Dark I just never reach for this and it is so bulky so it needs to go.

Feels good to get like a few declutters out.

nightmareb4

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.

Always an exciting day when the Walmart box comes. Always a favorite every season. Highly recommend this box to everyone always.

Mega Babe Thigh Rescue

Full Size: 23 g

Full Size Cost: $10

I am so excited to get this. I have gone through a few of these they work so well I just finished my last stick of this and was going to buy another this week and now I don’t have to. This really does eliminate friction and lasts all day its amazing.

Physician’s Formula Butter Glow Liquid Bronzer in Bronze

Full Size: 40 ml

Full Size Cost: $13.49

Sample Size: 6 ml

Total Value: $2.02

Cool a liquid bronzer pretty sure I have never gotten a liquid bronzer in a box before. I really like alot of things from Physician’s Formula but there shade range leaves alot to be desired.

The Shop Face Wash

Full Size: 120 ml

Full Size Cost: $9.97

Sample Size: 30 ml

Total Value: $2.49

Pretty basic face wash but I like the packaging.

Earth to Skin Super Fruits Prickly Pear Sheet Mask

Full Size: 1 Mask

Full Size Cost: $2.50

I am currently using this and it is nice so far. It is super milky like I was able to serum my whole chest neck hands and both arms. The scent hits pretty strongly at first but dissipates quickly and it is staying on my face well.

Eva Nyc Therapy Session Hair Mask

Full Size: 60 ml

Full Size Cost: $5.50

I love this hair mask it is so thick and creamy and really makes my hair feel healthier.

Curel Dry Skin Therapy Hydra Silk Moisturizer

Full Size: 354 ml

Full Size Cost: $19.80

Sample Size: 29 ml

Total Value: $1.62

This we have gotten more then once in this box. I don’t like curel products they don’t work for me personally they are greasy and sticky on me but i know they work so well for so many people especially with sensitive skin.

Another super good great box everything will get used and enjoyed by me.

nightmareb4

This was a good month I got enough used up to to be under the amount of items I started with for the year.

Skincare (20)

Peter Thomas Roth Peptide Skinjection Moisture Infusion Cream this was nice I liked it.

Repurchase: Maybe

First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Firming Collagen Cream this was heavy but I started it when my skin was freaking out because I knew this would be gentle.

Repurchase: No

Zitsticka Killa Kit Deep Zit Microdart these are good they do work they don’t make the pimples go away or at least not for me because I use them on really really bad ones because these are expensive but there is significant improvement.

Repurchase: Yes

Vitamasques Acai Berry Sheet Mask I didn’t really like this it slid all over and wasn’t that easy or comfortable to wear.

Repurchase: No

Repurchase: No

Peach & Lily Super Reboot Resurfacing Mask this was really good mu skin felt softer after.

Repurchase: Maybe

Drunk Elephant Lala Retro Whipped Cream this is just too thick for me but it is a nice texture.

Repurchase: No

Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Multi-Recovery Complex I don’t really like this serum even though it gets great reviews I don’t love the feel or the scent and I don’t think it does anything.

Repurchase: No

SK-II Facial Treatment Mask this are absurdly expensive I don’t love them they are very thick and have a ton of serum and I find they stay on decent and I can wear them for a long time but I don’t think they are worth the price. I will use them when I have them but I would not go out of my way to get these.

Repurchase: No

Strivectin Dual Phase Serum for Fine Lines, Dullness & Dry Skin this was messy I hate the serums or things you have to mix together it just isn’t for me.

Repurchase: No

Dune The Mug Guard Invisible Gel Suncare for Face this unfortunately broke me out but I loved the matte gel texture.

Repurchase: No

Peach Slices Snail Rescue All-in-One Oil Free Moisturizer this was nice I liked it a lot.

Repurchase: Yes

Good Molecules Yerba Mate Wake Up Eye Gel this is no effective at brightening or depuffing.

Repurchase: No

Elizabeth Arden Hyaluronic Acid Ceramide Capsules I just do not see the point in packaging things this way but this was really nice it wasn’t stick it was a nice soft matt kinda feel I really enjoyed it but it is way to expensive to be doing the same thing as the $6 hyaluronic acids.

Repurchase: No

Mario Badescu Facial Spray with Aloe, Chamomile and Lavender I love these and I love the teeny tiny bottles for traveling I just love a facial spray.

Repurchase: Yes

Tsaio Chamomila Facial Wash Foam I could cut this open and get a ton more but I hated it so much that once I couldn’t squeeze it anymore it had to go. It was so thick and really hard to foam up and really didn’t make my skin feel clean.

Repurchase: No

Dr. Jart+ DermaClear Micro Makeup Remover (4) these are good at removing make up for sure but stings like hell if it gets in your eyes.

Repurchase: No

Random (5)

FCS OCD Hand Sanitizer in BFF’S this is my preferred brand of hand sanitizer and I I use them all the time.

Repurchase: Yes

Dove Go Fresh Apple & White Tea Antiperspirant I think I need a break from Dove deodorant going to go back to Degree for awhile.

Repurchase: Eventually

Megababe Thigh Rescue Anti-Friction Stick this is great I feel like I don’t have to reapply often its really good at its job. I like the mini stick because it is easy to travel with but the value of the full size one is better.

Repurchase: Yes

Yuni Shower Sheets I like these types of things they are great when you are gross and can’t shower like at theme park and just need to feel refreshed. I have other brands I like better though.

Repurchase: No

Dr. Scholl’s Tired Achy Feet Soothing & Reviving Foot Mask this was awesome it really did provide some relief after walking for like 8 hours.

Trader Joe’s Whipped Body Scrub in Hot Cocoa this wasn’t very good not super scrubby and not a lot of scent either.

Repurchase: No

T.Taio Esponjabon Mother of Pearl Lightening Effect I think this is meant for face but it would be so horribly rough I would not recommend that at all. This is one of those like soap infused sponges I just used it on my body. It had no scent I didn’t dislike it.
