So most of these were used up while I was on vacation so there is not giant picture this month because I just was not flying with trash in my bad that is just a little too much crazy for me. So this will just be a little all over the place.
Skin Care
Tarte Maracuja C Brightener Eye Treatment I liked this at first but then I don’t know I don’t feel like it really did that much. This was just kinda eh.
Repurchase: No
Bath and Body Works True Blue Spa Cracked Heel Treatment don’t waste your money the smell of this made me gag and it didn’t do anything it was terrible.
Repurchase: No
Ulta Sugar Cookie Macaroon Face and Body Wipes these I buy every Holiday Season they always smell so good they aren’t really that great but they are fun and cheap. They are pretty good for refreshing your body if you’re sweaty I keep them in my work bag. But they probably are not the best for your skin being packed with alcohol and fragrance.
Repurchase: Yes
Buff Her Crumbs Vanilla Exfoliator this is one of those powders that you can mix with anything I did not like this it did not exfoliate well didn’t even smell that good the jar was cute though. I got this in an Ipsy bag a long time ago ad finally got around to using it but it sucked.
Repurchase: No
Miss Spa Facial Peel off Mask in Pore Refining I don’t remember if this did anything for me or not but I do remember that it peeled off really well it was an enjoyable peeling mask and that is what is important in a peel mask lol. My face was softer after. I do like this brand but I only pick stuff up on a whim.
Repurchase: Maybe
Bliss Fabulous Makeup Up Melt this is one of those gel oil cleansers that melts your makeup off it didn’t work that well and left tons of makeup on my skin. It smelled nice and was gentle but it just wasn’t effective.
Repurchase: No
Biore Baking Soda Acne Scrub I love these baking soda and charcoal scrubs from Biore but I am still trying to find my absolute favorite I can’t decide yet but they do all work to make my skin feel clean and nice and not oily.
Repurchase: Yes
Sephora Mud Mask Purifying & Mattifying this was awful. I have another sample of this and probably will declutter it. This was impossible to get off and did nothing for my skin at all. It actuall hurt and made my skin really irritate to try and scrub it off
Repurchase: NO!
Simple Micellar Cleansing Facial wipes people love these but I don’t get it they really didn’t work at all to clean anything off my face not makeup not oil or dirt nothing. Total Fail.
Repurchase: No
Sephora Express Eye Makeup Remover Wipes these didn’t work well had I had to tug and rub at my eyes alot which is not something I want to be doing.
Repurchase: No
Studio 35 Beauty Detoxifying Mask this is Walgreens house brand. My skin freaked out after flying and looked horrible so I bought this for like a dollar or two to try and make my skin relax because it was a honey mask and that usually helps my skin calm down. This was awesome I loved it it really helped clean up and calm my skin down heal up my acne and pull out alot of the random oil that was pouring out of my skin I will definitely be buying more for when my skin acts up.
Repurchase: YES!
Dove Purely Pampering Body Wash I have the full size of this in a different scent. I hate them I do not like Dove soap. They are too moisturizing I do not feel clean after I shower I feel like I Just put lotion on dirt I do not like it. If you have very dry skin this may be for you It’s just more moisture then my skin knows what to do with.
Repurchase: No
Bliss Lemon and sage body butter this smelled so good I love the additon of sage or basil into body care it reminds me of my grandmother”s garden when I was little and it helps cute any sweetness or two much citrus.
Repurchase: Yes
Tarte Guard Sunscreen spf 30 this was good face sunscreen it did not break me out. I do not often use sunscreen it often leaves me broken out or with read itchy rashes this did not so I would consider picking it up if I was ever in the market for sunscreen.
Repurchase: Maybe
Makeup
Smashbox Photo Finish Primer hey we all know and love this primer I have never owned a full size I always have tons of samples. its a good primer but I have so many ad get so many free that I really don’t buy primers.
Repurchase: No only because I have so many
Glamglow Glowstarter in Nude Glow I really want to buy this and darker shade but they are so expensive this just makes my skin look lovely and healthy ad glowy and even with out having to put any foundation on. So obviously it doesn’t wear or look like I have any coverage it is like a your skin but better moisturizer. I’m into it Because I don’t love wearing foundation.
Repurchase: One day
Benefit Fakeup Concealer I don’t even know if they make this any more this is a weird consistency it is like a liquid cream matte stick its like the strangest thing it does work and it doesn’t crease if you don’t put a ton on but eve a touch to much and it looks like crap. Its really hard to use. It looks nice if yo put it on right but if you don’t it looks terrible.
Repurchase: No
Benefit Porefessional hey another oldie I used to love this but not I am just trying to use it up it doesn’t work for me any more and balls up under my skin it never used to do that but this used to be a product I loved it just isn’t working for me anymore I do still recommend it I think it just works a little better for younger skin.
Repurchase: No
Hourglass Immaculate Liquid Powder Foundation I hate that this looked great because it is pricey but when I need new foundation I may have to pick this up if I can find a good shade match this was obviously a sample so it was close but not perfect. It really is a liquid that dried to a nice smooth powder finish and right now at least this seems to be the texture that my skin likes in a foundation and anything else can sit weird if I don’t take alot of time to buff it in well. This is a perfect formula for everyday quick makeup.
Repurchase: One day
Hair Care
L’oreal Smooth Intense Shampoo, preconditioner and conditioner I did not like this. It left my hair sticky and not smooth or straight.
Repurchase: No
Rich oil sorry I do not at all know what brand this is. It was nice but very thick much to thick for my hair. It took forever to absorb.
Repurchase: No
Colour oil same unknown brand this was lighter and a little nicer but it was greasy and maybe my hair need to be washed much quicker.
Repurchase: No
Wen in pomegranate I do really like this it does work well on my hair and it is easy to rinse out but I am trying a new cleansing conditioner to see how I like it.
Repurchase: Yes
Vernon Francois Co-Wash Shampoo I’d love to have an opinion on this co-wash since I am in the process of testing new ones out. Unfortunately there was not even enough in this sample to wash the ends of my hair. This was a real bullshit sample.
Repurchase: No
Perfume
Atelier Cologne Clementine California I love Atelier colognes so much this one is not as good as the Orange Sanguine though and for the price I would pick that over this. Both are lovely citrus scents but the Orange Sanguine is warmer and lasts longer Clementine is too light and fades much to quickly on me for the price.
Repurchase: No
Cartier Declaration this was nice to try very strong and long lasting but not something I am super interested in. I would enjoy another sample but won’t be buying this.
Repurchase: No
Nest Indigo ooh this was way to fucking strong it gave me a headache I have not been a huge fan of any Nest scents they are just too strong for me. And I like strong scents so this is really overwhelming.
Repurchase: No
Tocca Giulietta this was way to flowery and girly not a scent I enjoy I like warm sweet scents and fruity scents.
Repurchase: No
Household
Fortune Cookie Soap Company Polyjuice Potion Personal Space Air Freshener this is one of their permanent scents it is a lovely fresh lemon lime type scent can you see the theme here I am clearly partial to citrus scents. This bottle has lasted me forever I mean like over a year and a half.
Repurchase: Yes
Random
Charcoal toothbrush I really like using charcoal toothbrushes and toothpaste to in addition to regular toothpaste. They do temporarily make my teeth a little brighter and take away some stains they also make my moth feel clean and is fairly gentle but there is not normal mint taste and they are messy so it isn’t always practical.
Repurchase: Yes
Sally Hansen Finishing Oil this is what I like to use after I wax my eyebrows to take off the wax and help soothe my skin. I do not know if you can buy this in a full size or if you can only get it in the waxing kits. I’ve only every gotten it in the waxing kits.
Repurchase: Yes
Secret Clinical Strength Deodorant this really was put to the ringer in Florida and it did a decent job of keeping away smell and sweat but even it had to succumb to Florida’s August heat and humidity.
Repurchase: No
Random hotel mouthwash it tasted terrible.
Repurchase: No, Could you even probably not
GUM Fluoride Toothpaste this was an ok toothpaste the flavor was eh but it did its job.
Repurchase: No
Declutter
3 Victoria Secret Eyeshadows these were weird and cool but they are so very old they have to be like 8 years old at least. They are like a crushes up powder eyeshadow in a jar and the silver piece pulls off and has a sponge applicator that you apply the shadow with. They were great for like quick eyeshadow when I was running late in highschool but I have out grown these.
Pignose Clear Blackhead this was supposed to like heat up and help extract or clean out your black heads it never did anything for me no matter how I tried to use it and I’m giving up on this.
Olay Fresh Effects Spot Zinger this did diddly squat as a spot treatment. I much prefer Clearasil.
The Balm eyeshadow sample in Willkomen its just a boring brown I have a million don’t need a single of it. I’ll pass it on to some one who can use it.
This was a free chapstick I got somewhere it is horrible it has the worst thick oil petroleum jelly texture and it smells chemically.
Mostly misses this month like there were really very few things I enjoyed this month that’s kinda sad I like to enjoy my products so I guess it is good to be moving the crap I don’t like out of my collection. Though if I keep this kind of pace I may be able to double my years goal.
