What’s In My Trash? July 2020

Well this is super late because I have been intensely busy I had about 4 days off in the past 6 weeks and that trend is about to continue for at least the next 6 week so so yea my life is like just a busy trainwreck right now. And these empties really show it I only used up 16 things that’s probably the lowest I have ever used up. I did use up alot of high value items though so I’m still ahead of the game for my goal but the amount of items coming in is way exceeding what is moving out right now. But that seems like a problem for some time in the future when things are less insane.

Skincare (6)

NuFace Prep-n-Glow Dual Sided Cloth I love these wipes they are so good and they don’t feel like they are wrecking my skin when I use them they feel like they are doing something good for my skin.

Repurchase: Yes

Sunday Riley C.E.O. Glow Vitamin C + Tumeric Face Oil very much loved this but I love vitamin c oils in general. I don’t know that I loved this more than cheaper vitamin c oils. It was brightening and just makes my skin glow but without being super oily and greasy.

Repurchase: Probably Not

Elemis Superfood Cica Calm Hydration Juice another thing I really loved but I don’t think is worth the steep price for how fast I went through it. It was a really hydrating gel I really liked it it was a bit cooling I liked it a lot but it only lasted like a month and it is expensive. It broke down in cost to like a little over a dollar a day.

Repurchase: No

Fortune Cookie Soap Company Afterparty Walnut Body Scrub so I know this is technically a body scrub but this is really a rebrand of a face scrub they used to make years ago that I loved to death. I know you aren’t supposed to use walnut shells on your face because they can cause micro tears but my skin responds so well to them and is so soft and clearer after that I feel like as long as I’m gentle it is fine and it is my face my rules.

Repurchase: Yes

Dr. Brandt 24/7 Retinol Eye Cream this did nothing? Like I really expected to see a difference with this and I saw more of a difference with the ROC eye cream that is half the price of this. Also I cut this open because expensive thinking there would be like one or two more uses stuck in the tube and there was like 2 weeks of eye cream in there.

Repurchase: No

Belif The True Cream Moisturizing Bomb this is ok it’s a fine moisturizer but it is nothing special equal to its price.

Repurchase: No

Random (1)

Forever 21 Cotton Rounds these are great cotton rounds, cheap and not linty or scratchy but they don’t make them any more.

Repurchase: Guess not

Home Scents (5)

Bath and Body Works Firecracker Candle this was pretty lackluster. It really didn’t smell much like a rocket pop like it was supposed to and it burned really fast.

Repurchase: No

Swan Creek Candle Co. Herbal Melts in Saturday Morning Cereal & Milk these are some of my favorite wax melts. This really did smell like cereal but it wasn’t as strong as a lot of their other wax melts.

Repurchase: I don’t know

Bath and Body Works Wallflower in Fresh Sea Walk I liked this it was strong and very beachy.

Repurchase: Yes

Bath and Body Works Fresh Orange Candle I liked this but it wasn’t strong enough.

Repurchase: No

Ulta Beauty Foaming Hand Soap in Citrus Fizz I like the Ulta soaps they last forever like they just last and last and last I also really appreciate the pumps on them you can actually get every last bit of soap out with out struggling. This citrus scent was fun I liked it, it was limited edition so I don’t think you can get it. But I will buy more soaps from Ulta.

Repurchase: Yes

Lip (1)

Fortune Cookie Soap Company Lip Scrub in What’s This? I wasn’t keen on this flavor. But I used it up it was a little dry for my liking.

Repurchase: No

Lotions (2)

Bath and Body Works Body Lotion in Clementine & Mint Leaves I am slowly getting through my BBW collection I do really want to limit what I buy from them to just really special things. They keep raising the prices and lessening the sales and coupons and I feel like the quality isn’t worth what they are now charging. Either way this was fine the scent was nice it was the main reason I bought it.

Repurchase: No, because reasons

Fortune Cookie Soap Company Whipped Cream in Aqua Scum I like the whipped creams and this scent was nice very sea like and summer and nice.

Repurchase: Yes

Bodycare (1)

Fortune Cookie Soap Company Third Times The Charm Bath Fizzy this was a very relaxing scent I enjoyed it and it turned the water a very pretty mostly opaque grey another plus. It lose marks for leaving a glitter ring around my tub that I had to clean off.

Repurchase: No


It was a rough July and it is a rough August and I anticipate a rough September. Stay tuned and join me on the struggle bus.
