What’s In My Trash? February 2022

Wow February really flew by this year unfortunately more items came into my life then left I used up 23 things and added 24 things to my hoard. Same with all the other things in my life that I collect and track but that is sorta to be expected. My birthday is at the end of January and that always leads to some post birthday things coming into my life as well as I just had a really tough month and had quite a few treat yourself moments and retail therapy. It is what it is.

Skincare (4)

Saturday Skin Waterfall Glacier Water Cream I really really liked this it was super hydrating and thick but in a nice way I would use it as like a night cream/sleeping mask but I really liked it.

Repurchase: Maybe

Barbor Hydra Plus Ampoules I just don’t get the point of packaging things like this. It is so excessive and I can’t see how it helps the product in any way. One ampoule is more then I need, having to crack open a glass vial and then having sharp edges just feels like not the best idea. This was also a really thin liquid and I just didn’t vibe with this.

Repurchase: No

Perricone High Potency Growth Factor Firming & Lifting Serum this was weirdly gritty but I do feel like it did a slight lifting and firming.

Repurchase: No its like obscenely expensive

Beekman 1802 Dewy Eyed Illuminating Eye Serum I kinda hated this it was not super illuminating it was not super hydrating I really just did not care for this eye cream at all.

Repurchase: No

Random (2)

Degree Dry Protection in Shower Clean this was fine I don’t love it as much as my normal Ultra clear ones. I have another one or two of these to use up because I bought them all on a couponing sale deal so it is what it is.

Repurchase: No

Grande Cosmetics Grande Lash Serum this really does grow my lashes longer and thicker I love it.

Repurchase: Yes

Home Scents (4)

Bath and Body Works Sugared Lemon Zest Candle very much liked this I love lemon and sweet scents. The scent throw was alright.

Repurchase: Maybe

Trader Joe’s Scented Candle in Fresh Currant I liked this it had a good scent throw and burn time for how little it was. And I really like Currants. I would totally buy this again if it comes back next year.

Repurchase: Yes

Bath and Body Works Wallflower in Peppermint Sugar Cookie this was fine it wasn’t super strong but it wasn’t terrible.

Repurchase: No

Forever Green 44 Sandalwood & Patchouli Candle this was a really good candle and a nice comforting scent and it burned for a really long time.

Repurchase: Yes

Lip (2)

FCS Lip Shine in Watermelon Cake this was basically a lip gloss in a pot very nineties glosses are not really my thing but this one wasn’t awful. It wasn’t sticky it felt nice on almost like a gloss balm and I could wear it kinda thick at bed time like a lip mask it tasted great which was a big drive to want to use it.

Repurchase: No

Lloyd’s of La Luna Lip Balm in Maia Tamarin I did not like this as all it was really grainy after awhile and had no taste or smell of raspberry like it was supposed to.

Repurchase: No

Makeup (2)

Hourglass Caution Extreme Lash Mascara I do love this mascara but I didn’t like it in a mini the brush was way to big and the handle way to small and it was so hard to use like that.

Repurchase: Not a mini

Wet n Wild Megaliner in 871A Black this was meh I don’t think I like this dip style of liner as much as I used to this was just an ok liner nothing super special but also totally gets the job done well for a cheap price.

Repurchase: No

Lotion (1)

Tokyomilk Bon Bon Shea Butter Lotion in Kabuki I really didn’t like this it was way to think to be actually moisturizing it was more like a perfume cream then doing anything to hydrate. I got it for free but I don’t think I would ever spend this much on a cream

Repurchase: No

Bodycare (3)

Tree Hut Shave Oil in Coconut Lime I always use this shave oil I love shave oils I have never really found another one to even try but I would. This is my second favorite the three scents.

Repurchase: Yes

Charmed Aroma Charcoal Bath Bomb these are fun I love getting the jewelry in side even though it is cheesy and too expensive. The bath bomb itself is good it lasts a long time smells good feels nice on the skin but holy shit did this make a disaster of tub it left a grey ring and the flower petals got stuck everywhere.

Repurchase: Maybe

FCS Body Wash in I’ll Never Let Go this was nothing special I used it but the scent was hardly there.

Repurchase: No

Perfume (3)

Juicy Couture Hollywood Royal Perfume this perfume is a whole lot of nothing in terms of scents or thoughts I just have had it forever and wanted to just use it up.

Repurchase: No

Bath and Body Works Fragrance Mist in Champagne Apple & Honey this took me a surprisingly long time to use up for how little it is. I focused on this as my only fragrance for like 2 weeks and I would have to apply it like twice a day. But I used it up it was whatever. I never use body sprays as perfume I usually use them as room sprays but I love apples and honey and just wanted to try it out.

Repurchase: No

Fortune Cookie Soap Company Perfume Oil in Eat Me this was a little rough to get through even though I loved it. I love sweet scents I really do but this was so heavily vanilla cupcake scented that it almost would turn sickening on the skin if not used in tiny doses because it was so heavy and sweet. So I could only use like a dot of this at a time. I think I would prefer this scent in a lotion or a bodywash something that will fade a lot quicker and not have the time to sit and turn.

Repurchase: No

Haircare (1)

Marc Anthony Nourishing Argan Oil Conditioner this was pretty good it made my hair feel softer not necessarily less dry but softer.

Repurchase: Maybe

Declutter (1)

Dr. Botanicals Cocoa & Coconut Superfood Reviving Hydrating Mask this is super thick and sticky and it is supposed to be left on all night and I just can’t with it. I also didn’t find it to be really hydrating.
