What’s In My Trash? May 2021

This was a really bad month I did not use up alot of things at all. So let’s get into it this one will be a quick one for a change.

Skincare (8)

Follain Eye Cream I hated this so much. If you have sensitive skin run far away. So I had some irritation under my eye and I thought this would soothe it. It did not it burned like crazy. Even when I didn’t have irritation it just felt harsh. I ended up using it all over my face to just get it used up really quickly.

Repurchase: No

Dermalogica Clear Start Breakout Clearing Booster this was pretty good for a spot treatment I liked it. It was really runny but I think that was partially a packaging problem because the full size is packaged differently.

Repurchase: Maybe

Beekman 1802 Dream Booster Bakuchiol Beta-Retinol Serum (x3) this is pretty decent for a beta retinol I just prefer a non beta retinol I feel like the result as more impactful and faster. But it you have sensitive skin this would be great for you and it is a good price.

Repurchase: No

Naturally Good For You Balance & Boost Serum well this is not a serum it is a moisturizer and it was really good for redness relief and my blemishes but it smells like Elmer’s glue and I hated using it because of that. It was also sticky.

Repurchase: No

Clinique Take the Day Off Makeup Remover Towelettes I thought I would love these since I love the take the day off line for taking off my makeup but these fell short for me they are a bit too oily for what I want in a wipe but they also don’t take off really full on make up or mascara and eyeliner so these aren’t right for me.

Repurchase: No, unfortunately I have a ton of these because I bought them on a super good sale I may end up giving some packs away.

The Crème Shop Caffeine Eye Sheet Mask this was nice very refreshing. Stayed on well.

Repurchase: Maybe

Home Scents (5)

Victoria Secret Pink Yuzu + Sea Salt Candle I loved this it smelled so good and yuzu-y and the scent was so strong that I could smell it the next day.

Repurchase: Yes

Bath and Body Works Wallflower in Coconut Cream Pie this was fine it was unimpressive really.

Repurchase: No

Huntington Home Essential Oil Wax Melt in Lemon & Ginger this was not worth the $2. The melts were only good for one melt each they couldn’t be reused and they smelled good but they were not worth it.

Repurchase: No

Bath and Body Works Fine Fragrance Mist in Gingerbread Latte I always use these as room scents because why not. This was nice it smelled like gingerbread.

Repurchase: Maybe

Juice Sugar Fix Candle this had no scent throw at all.

Repurchase: No, it was a gift with purchase anyway you can’t buy it

Lip (2)

Victoria Secret Balm Addict Moisturizing Lip Balm I hated this it was really stick and not at all balmy or hydrating.

Repurchase: No

Weleda Skin Food Lip Butter I really did not like this it was really slick but some how really drying at the same time and I really found the yellow tint to be unappealing.

Repurchase: No

Makeup (2)

Maybelline Great Lash in Wink of Pink this was surprisingly great I hate that it was limited edition. This really coated my lashes and made them pink with out needing a million layers which is often a priblem with colored mascaras.

Repurchase: Yes

Apocalyptic Beauty Badass Setting Spray in Green Tea this is such a good setting spray it really holds on makeup well and the scents are all really great.

Repurchase: Yes

Lotion (1)

Rituals The Ritual of Happy Buddha Recovery Hand Balm this was a really interesting texture it was really a balmy feeling lotion. The scent was really strong though and the cedarwood in this kinda overshadowed the orange and I didn’t love that but it was a good hand cream.

Repurchase: No

Bodycare (4)

Dr.Teals Pure Epsom Salt in Cannabis Sativa Hemp Seed Oil these are good and cheap and I like that because I can use a lot in a bath to get the really good soothing effects without feeling like I am wasting it.

Repurchase: Yes

Fortune Cookie Soap Company Shimmer Body Wash in Fairytales & Make Believe I don’t really need my body wash to have shimmer in it but this all washed away and didn’t stick so it was fine. This didn’t have a strong scent and I like really scented body washes do this was just not for me but it was tiny it lasted like a week a little less? It was fine.

Repurchase: No

Fortune Cookie Bath Bomb? I don’t know which on this is. It was fun though it changed from yellow to green to blue with was fun and it had a lotion bar/ bath melt in the center so it was nice to rub on my skin and I felt so moisturized and smooth after.

Repurchase: Maybe

Skintimate Moisturizing Shave Gel in Raspberry Rain this was terrible it was dry it rinsed off way to quickly and it did not help me get a smooth nice shave.

Repurchase: No

Haircare (1)

Beauty & Pin-Ups Fearless Hair Rescue Masque this was a great hair mask I really liked it it made my hair feel super soft and healthy.

Repurchase: Yes

Declutter (2)

Physcian’s Formula Glide on Gel Eyeliner in Black Velvet life is too short for mediocre black eyeliner. It is black and soft but it isn’t long wearing and it does smudge so bye bitch.

FCS SPF 15 Shimmer Sunscreen Stick in Golden Hour I don’t this this was doing anything in terms of sun protection and it was really hard to apply and I just don’t like it.


Well I really did poorly this month. I didn’t use up much or any high value items.
