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.
