What’s In My Trash (A.K.A. An Empties Post) September 2017

Better late then never I hope. Grad school has been so so busy and work has been busy and I have just not had time to do anything. But I am back now. with a bunch of empties and then a bunch of box reviews coming at you all this week.

Here’s all the items together

Declutter

I beat up a bit on poor Medusa’s Makeup here this month.

Medusa’s Makeup Blush in Dangerous Liaison I don’t do blush and it didn’t work out as an eyeshadow so off it goes.

Medusa’s Makeup Body Shimmer in Healthy this was chunky powdery flakey city it looked terrible on my skin.

Medusa’s Makeup Baked Eyeshadow in Bitchin this was flakey and powdery as well. The other shades of the baked eyeshadow preform much better.

Coloupop supershock shadow I didn’t like the formula the it was no pigment and patches of glitter.

Urban Decay Vice Lipstick in Psycho this is a sheer red with purple glitter it was cool for a one time look but the glitter came off on everything so I didn’t want to wear it again.

IT Cosmetics Your Lips But Better Lip Liner I just don’t really use lip liner and this just was not a flattering tone on my lips.

Skin Care

elf Mineral Mist I really really enjoyed this it had witch hazel and then a bunch of other things in it and really made my skin just feel nice and refreshed.

Repurchase: Yes

Herbivore Lapis facial oil this is supposed to be good for clearing skin but this left my face a greasy oily gross mess. The Sunday Riley UFO oil I have been trying and that seems to be working much better.

Repurchase: No

Sephora Green Tea Sleeping Mask I love this it really mattifies the skin nicely and is great to wear to bed before before you are going to wear a full face of make up or have to be out running around and getting sweat and oily. I have already bought another pack and others to try.

Repurchase: Yes

Biore Baking Soda Pore Cleanser this was nice it did an ok job of scrubbing out my pores but I still like the orange one more.

Repurchase: No

IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Lines Serum eh didn’t impress me and was sticky.

Repurchase: No

Sunday Riley Tidal Brightening Enzyme Water Cream also did not impress me but I have a few samples left of it.

Repurchase: No

Clinique Cleanser its an ok cleanser it works but it isn’t special.

Repurchase: No

Clinique Exfloliator this was cool it was in a wipe I’ve never seen it that way from Clinique before but it was very harsh.

Repurchase: No

Clinique Moisturizer it does work for my oily skin but I get enough samples that I won’t purchase.

Repurchase: No

Face Wipes

Pixi Glow Tonic To Go Glycolic Acid Toner pads these smelled so floral and I don’t think they agreed with my skin.

Repurchase: No

Oxy pads these were my ride or die forever but I am trying to avoid alcohol in my skin care for awhile and see if that helps my skin so I wont be opening my new jar for awhile it is a little bitter sweet.

Repurchase: Maybe

Ole Hendrickson Grease Relief Cleansing Cloths these are really awesome scrubbing face wipes and they really absorb all the oil off your face. I really enjoyed them a little too much I was using them so much that I actually started irritating and stripping my skin. So word of caution.

Repurchase: Yes

Accure Coconut and Argan Oil wipes these were ok nothing special.

Repurchase: No

Hair Care

Briogeo Don’t Despair Repair hair mask this made my hair really soft but gave it way more volume then I like in my hair.

Repurchase: No

Drybar Detox Dry Shampoo my favorite dry shampoo of all time the scent is great it leave my hair clean and soft and I love it.

Repurchase: Yes

Makeup

Dr. Jart+ BB Cream this had a weird consistency and was way to light for me.

Repurchase: No

Sephora Lashcraft Mascara this was really clumpy and dry I did not like.

Repurchase: No

Lip Balm

The Organic Pharmacy Antioxidant Lip Balm this was the most amazing lip balm I have ever used in my life. It was this amazing fruit scent/flavor was so rich and smooth and moisturizing. It was a clear gel so it made my lips really glossy for a long time. It is also $22 so I can’t bring myself to buy it, because that it clinically insane for a lip balm.

Repurchase: No 🙁

Blistex Complete Moisture lip balm this was great but really idk how to explain the texture it almost mushed when you put it on so it got used up very fast.

Repurchase: Yes

Perfume

Burberry My Burberry Blush perfume I like this it was fruity but I don’t often buy perfume because they are expensive even though I love them I pretty much wait until I get them as gifts.

Repurchase: No

Vince Camuto Ciao I like his shoes his perfumes not so much.

Repurchase: No

Random

Bath Pouf

Bath and Body Works Hand Sanitizer in Noir


Well I know its so late that no one cares but for my records at least I have it posted only 3 months left to the year and so close to doubling my original goal. I am really impressed with myself though it is getting harder to use things up.

Total: 30

YTD: 268
