One more month down only one month left to go and I have met both of my goals this year so December gets to be really low pressure which is super awesome.

Skincare (12)

Clinique Take the Day Off Makeup Remover Towelettes I really don’t like these I have learned my lesson about buying multiples of something I have never tried. These are really greasy but also don’t get makeup off easily either and I don’t love that but they don’t irritate my skin so I guess they have that going for them.

Repurchase: No

Wander Beauty Baggage Claim Gold Eye Masks these are still probably my favorite eye mask for depuffing and making me look alive. Not the most hydrating or cooling but I really like them I don’t always love cold stuff even when my eyes are puffy and gross.

Repurchase: Yes

Clarins Total Eye Lift this was meh I have no real feelings for it.

Repurchase: No

Vitamasques Evening Eye Goggle Mask this was fine I don’t think it is worth $6 it was cute as hell with all the black and the gold stars it was fun and hydrating.

Repurchase: No

Tatcha Indigo Overnight Repair this was literally one use so I can’t say much it didn’t seem special though.

Repurchase: No

Glow Recipe Avocado Melt Retinol Eye Sleeping Mask this is one of my favorite eye creams I feel like you can see results from it but it isn’t really moisturizing at all so I need to alternate or layer eye creams with this one.

Repurchase: Yes

Acure Incredibly Clear Charcoal Lemonade Facial Scrub I didn’t like this is was really gummy and sticky rather then scrubby. There are hundreds of better scrubs then this.

Repurchase: No

Lord Jones Acid Mantle Repair CBD Moisturizer this was really nice  and a little goes along way so I got way more use out of this tiny tub then I thought I would. This reminds me a lot of Beekman’s Bloom Cream it has that same plumping glowy look and feel but its greasy or over hydrating. I liked it.

Repurchase: Maybe

Beekman 1802 Bloom Cream Probiotic Moisturizer I really like this cream I thought this was more on the heavy side but now comparing it to the Lord Jones one that really reminded me of this this is a lot lighter in texture then that one.

Repurchase: Yes

Global Beauty Care Makeup Cleansing Wipes in Aloe Vera these were fine they were serviceable they weren’t to harsh they stayed wet. They were fine for a $1.

Repurchase: Maybe, I don’t actively buy wipes often

Sephora Waterproof Makeup Remover forever my favorite liquid eye makeup remover it is perfect in my eyes. It doesn’t sting it works really well I love it.

Repurchase: Always

Lap Cos Red Wine Sheet Mask this was slimier than I expected and thicker than I expected but it was a nice sheet mask.

Repurchase: No

Random (3)

FCS OCD Hand Sanitizer in Here Lies… this smelled like fall it was super fun and great.

Repurchase: Yes

Dove Even Tone in Calming Breeze I didn’t particularly like this. I don’t feel like it did any tone evening and I didn’t like the scent. It also had an odd sticky texture.

Repurchase: No

Sigma Sigmagic Brushampoo this is a really good brush shampoo I just don’t prefer liquid brush soap I feel like I always ended up using so much more than I would with bar soap.

Repurchase: No

Home Scents (4)

FCS Whipped Soap in Shadow Man this was fine I just don’t care for this format of soap I don’t want to have to dig my hand into a jar of soap to use it I prefer a pump soap or a bar soap.

Repurchase: No

Fortune Cookie Soap Company Bar Soap in Invitation Only so this was a super cute fun concept but execution not so much the thing about brown soap is that it makes the water run brown which is kinda gross. It smelled like chocolate though!

Repurchase: No

FCS Speakeasy Room Spray this was not my most favorite scent but it is a quality room spray.

Repurchase: No

Bath and Body Works Wallflower in Pumpkin Pecan Waffle this was a nice bakery scent not my favorite but it was fine.

Repurchase: No

Makeup (3)

Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara this is a great mascara probably in my top ten not my most favorite ever but a good solid reliable choice. It wears well it has a great brush it gives a lot of curl and volume. It is a wetter formula and I just prefer a drier formula but a solid choice.

Repurchase: Yes

Jd Glow Cosmetics Metallic Gel Liner in Candy Paint I loved this for a long time I really love the JD glow liners this metallic red has now changed color to be more like an orange so

it is past its prime that is a good way to know when something has gone off. So I got 4 years of use out of this liquid liner so that is really fantastic and I am pleased with that.

Repurchase: Yes

L’oreal Bambi Oversized Eye in 408 Intense Black* I didn’t like this it is a really wet formula and I found it really clumpy and gloopy on my eyes I really got a lot of that spider legs effect that I do not like. I also had to like blink my eyelashes on to my finger excessively to get off a lot of the goop so it wouldn’t smear every wear and I am just not here for that.

Repurchase: No

Lotion (2)

Neutrogena Hydro Boost Body Gel Cream this was like a sleeper hit I had not idea I was going to like this so much. I bought it because it was cheap and I needed it to get to a certain amount to get a gift with purchase I really wanted and was so surprised with how good this was. It is really light but really feel like a drink of water for your skin it had a really nice light watery light floral scent that I really liked it had a nice pump and a ton of lotion for a really low price this was great. I have really enjoyed the Hydro Boost line a lot.

Repurchase: Yes

FCS Lotion Bar in Do Go On…  this was awful for me. It was really sticky and thick and waxy and not a pleasurable experience to put on. Luckily it was small and I was able to use it up in minimal uses. The only places that it sorta worked for me was like on my knees and elbows because it was sorta like a balm on that tougher skin but still not for.

Repurchase: No

Bodycare (4)

Tree Hut Shave Oil in Coconut Lime this I love and will always repurchase. I get such a close shave my legs always feel so silky and oiled in a good way after. This is my second choice scent I prefer the Vanilla one but I haven’t seen it in stock anywhere in like more than 6 months.

Repurchase: Yes

Dr. Teals Pure Epsom Salt in Glow & Radiance these are good soaks and they are cheap so you can really load up your bath to get the full Epsom salt effect with out feeling like you are wasting money.

Repurchase: Yes

Basin Sugar Scrub in Satsuma I love these scrubs they are great I think next time I might try a different scent. These scrubs last me a really long time so I almost don’t mind the price. This is a nice orange scent and I love it.

Repurchase: Yes

Lush Yog Nog Bubble Bar this was fun the scent has kinda faded since I kept it for so long but the bubbles were still great I find that like a child I will sit in the bath longer if there are bubbles and then I can actually get the effects of soaking in an Epsom salt bath. This really stained my tub though which was not super great.

Repurchase: No

Perfume (1)

Juicy Couture Oui Glow I have been targeting this for like 2 or 3 months but I did not realize I was close to finishing this and that came as a nice surprise. I like this a lot it is really light I think I like the scent of this one more than the original Oui but I got way more compliments on the original Oui.

Repurchase: Maybe

Haircare (11)

Eva Nyc Mane Magic 10-in-1 Primer I like this primer spray a lot its nice it gets the job done in adding some moisture and smoothness to my hair its fine. I don’t love it or hair it.

Repurchase: I would use it again but I would be more inclined to try something new

Drybar On the Rocks Shampoo

Drybar On the Rocks Conditioner

These did not work for me the shampoo was not clarifying enough and the conditioner was far to lightweight for my dry hair.  But is you oily hair that you don’t use a lot of styling products on this might be for you.

Repurchase: No

The Seaweed Bath Co. Hydrating Shampoo in Eucalyptus & Peppermint

The Seaweed Bath Co. Hydrating Conditioner in Eucalyptus & Peppermint

These were odd. The shampoo was so thing and the scents were nonexistent but the conditioner was pretty average. It was also weird my hair dried so much faster after using this which was very interesting but it did leave my hair quite puffy and not very soft and smooth.

Repurchase: No

FCS Brave Wee Lassie Detangler I didn’t love this scent but as a detangler it is good I use them.

Repurchase: No

Klorane Anti-Pollution Purifying Mist I really liked this it is an incredibly niche product that most people probably don’t need and don’t need often but it is really cool. It helps take scents out of your hair particularly smoke or cooking type smells and as some one who tries to wash their hair as little as possible it is helpful to have something like this around that takes scent out of hair when my hair isn’t actually dirty. This is minty and has a nice minty freshness to it but not in a toothpaste way but that fades with in 15 minutes and my hair just smells like hair after that.

Repurchase: Maybe

Christophe Robin Cleansing Purifying Scrub with Salt I like this as a scalp scrub when I have build up and it does lather pretty nicely and it  gets the job done but it leaves my hair so so dry no matter what I do. I have tried. I think I may have to revisit it this later and try some other scrubs for awhile.

Repurchase: I don’t know

FCS Argan Hair Shine Serum in Permed & Teased I love these argan shine serums they are probably top 5 of hair oils for me I will always grab for them even when I have others on deck they work well for moisturizing my hair.

Repurchase: Yes

Rahua Classic Shampoo

Rahua Classic Conditioner

I have been using all these little samples this month to use them up while I am actively trying to fade dye out of my hair and boy was this an experience. I haven’t used a sulfated non color safe shampoo in more then 8 or 9 years and I had totally forgotten what it was like. It really lathered and foamed. It did drain color out of my hair which was wild after so long. It also left my hair feeling cheap which I know is a weird way to explain it but it felt like I had used cheap shampoo and conditioner.

Repurchase: No

Declutter (5)

FCS Leave-In Conditioner in Ghost with the Most I really like these leave-ins but this scent I just couldn’t it was very strong and heavy and old floral to me and it lingered in my hair overnight and I could still smell it all day the next day and I could not deal with the scent so I will have to pass this on.

Sundari Chamomile Eye Oil I used about half this bottle over a decent period of time like 4ish weeks maybe a little more and I don’t feel like it did a single thing I don’t love putting oil under my eyes it feels weird.

Exuviance Resurfacing Glycolic Wash I tried I wanted to see what this really fancy expensive face wash would be about but I just can’t get down with a foaming face wash. I am giving this to my gf this is way more her jam then mine. I found this a little stingy on my skin as well.

Amore Pacific Treatment Enzyme Peel Cleansing Powder (x2) I was doing a reorganization and pulled these out thinking I would try one and then I realized these are powder cleansers you mix yourself and I hate that so I will be passing these along.

---

I am really happy with how my empties have gone this year. I have used alot of things I haven’t enjoyed so much but I feel like that has made it easier to know what I like and don’t like and stop buying so much random stuff.
