Well it has been a whole mess of things over here in my life. Just problem after problem with no chance to recover. I got a new phone so the poor picture quality shall be solving itself very soon. Once I figure out the new camera settings but there is already an improvement in the quality.

The Body Shop Himalayan Charcoal Purifying Glow Mask this is one of those chunky clay masks that is really hard to remove and I am not a fan of those at all. I also don’t feel like this did anything for me.
Repurchase: No
an eye cream.
Repurchase: No
Pacifica Coconut Essence Hydro Mist this has coconut and caffeine in it. It smelled like a coconut dessert rather than like that sunscreen type coconut smell like I prefer but it still smelled nice. I didn’t find this to do a whole lot it was a bit moisturizing but certainly not the greatest mist I have ever used so I wouldn’t repurchase.
Repurchase: No
Whamisa by Glow Recipe Green Tea Serum Toner this did nothing.
Repurchase: No
Purlisse Blue Lotus and White Tea Sheet Mask I have so many of these and have used so many of these I got like 25 of them at Gen Beauty two years ago and a few randomly since then. It is ok it is hydrating but kinda sticky I don’t love it its just ok.
Repurchase: No
Freeman Hydrating Cactus and Cloudberry Water Gel Mask this is like a sleeping mask but to me it felt more like a gel moisturizer I got like 5 uses out of just this little packet. I really liked this as a moisturizer and will probably be buying a full size to use that way when I’ve used up a little more of my collection. This was not to sticky sunk in really well and my skin felt cooled and hydrated like I had been drinking tons of water and sleeping well so lol perfect moisturizer.
Repurchase: Yes
Tarte Pack Your Bags 911Undereye Rescue Patches I used these when my under eyes definitely needed some emergency help. These worked fairly well and hydrated my under eyes and helped the situation out a lot but not totally fixed it.
Repurchase: Maybe

Fortune Cookie Soap Company OCD Hand Sanitizer in The Droids You are Looking For I didn’t like the scent of this one but it was a super pretty gold sparkely C3PO color. I am not particularly tied to any special hand sanitizer though I’ll use whatever floatsinto my life.
Repurchase: No
Forever 21 Cotton Pads I liked these they really did a pretty damn good job for super cheap. I have like two more packs of them as well. The only thing that would keep me from repurchasing is that Forever 21 isn’t super convenient for me to go to just to buy some cotton pads.
Repurchase: Maybe
Parissa Brow Shaper Mini Wax Strips these are awful they barely adhere to your hair and are so mini that you have to like use so many to just do one eye brow. I have another box because these were like buy one get one I think so I will suffer through one more box.
Repurchase: No
Degree Motionsense Fresh Energy Deodorant I really like this line of deodorants they work super well and the only thing is I feel like I use them fast and they are not the cheapest. Idk kinda weird. Fresh Energy is my preferred scent.
Repurchase: Yes
Fortune Cookie Soap Company OCD Hand Sanitizer in Walk the Plank I liked the scent on this more than the other one I used up. This is rare thing to use up two hand sanitizers in a month. I can barely use up one in like 6months.
Repurchase: No
Fortune Cookie Soap Company Shower Steamer in T-Birds this had a sweet scent and their steamers are the only shower steamers that ever have worked in the shower for me and are good for like 2 uses. I just don’t find these to have much purpose so I won’t buy them.
Repurchase: No
Fortune Cookie Soap Company Shaving Cream in Cyro Can I didn’t really like this as much after I started using it. It didn’t hang together well so it didn’t spread and stay on my legs well. This didn’t give me that great of a shave and I went through it very fast.
Repurchase: No
Home Scents (8)
Bath and Body Works Bourbon Sea Salt Caramel Candle I loved this it had a great sweet warm scent and a great throw.
Repurchase: Yes
Febreze Air Effects in Linen& Sky I like Febreze sprays a lot they make everything smell really fresh and clean and I love them for like carpets and pillows and things that are hard or impossible to wash.
Repurchase: Yes
Swan Creek Candle Co. Herbal Melts in Cinnamon Hazelnut Latte this smelled just as described I really like these melts from this company. I have been stocking up on them as prizes at an arcade I go to (yes I know that is very odd) and am afraid they won’t get more in because these can only be bought wholesale.
Repurchase: Yes
Bath and Body Works Cherry Snow Cone Candle this smelled really nice is the jar but the scent throw wasn’t great and faded over time. So the first few times I burned it I did get the cherry scent but about half way through it really stopped having much of ascent.
Repurchase: No
Glade Atmosphere Collection Patchouli Amber (*) the scent of this was ok but not my personal scent preference I don’t like those more heavy musky scents. I liked the continuous spray feature because it didn’t do that spitty thing a lot of room sprays do where it feels like you are actually wetting down your room. It also lasted forever.
Repurchase: Maybe
Bath and Body Works Hot Cocoa& Cream Candle I love this scent but there are a few different varieties of this scent that have different scent compositions and they are not all the same or as good. This one is one of the less good ones. The ones that have the Nutmeg essential oil in them I do not like as much as the ones that don’t have the essential oil.
Repurchase: Not this one, but others of this scent confusing I know
Bath and Body Works Banana Split Milkshake this smelled so yummy you could smell the banana and the vanilla and the chocolate.
Repurchase: Yes
Cobblestone Candle Orange Popsicle Candle this had no scent throw what so ever this was totally pointless. I found this at Kirkland and just this is terrible don’t buy this it isn’t cute and doesn’t smell good so like no point.
Repurchase: No
Lip (3)
Ilia Lipstick Femme Fatal this was more of a tinted balm then a lipstick and really sheer not what I am looking for in a lipstick. None of the Ilia lip samples I tried worked out for me.
Repurchase: No
H2O+ Beauty Oasis Lip Gel in Clear as Day this is like a regular lip balm but its like a clear blue. It was fun to use and I liked how it felt on my lips very balmy and slick which I like and had no color but it is super pricey for a lip balm that isn’t also a treatment so I don’t know that I will repurchase. I have another because they were on a buy one get one sale.
Repurchase: Maybe
Chapstick Medicated Lip Balm I peeled off the label because it was like falling off and now I can’t remember exactly what this was called it is a medicated balm from then it is very Carmex like but not as thick I really liked it I would pick it up again. It had alight blue label if that helps at all. Not all Chapsticks are equally good.
Repurchase: Maybe

Morphe Crease Fluff Brush from the Eye Slay set this brush sucked from the beginning and now it is just shedding and falling apart and it is scratchy and not good at picking up or applying shadow it just all around was awful. None of the brushes from that set were really that good.
Origins Ginzing Refreshing Eye Cream I think there are actually two different eye creams in this line I might be wrong. I am actually using one up right now and I don’t really like it so I am decluttering the new one. This is not hydrating is doesn’t depuff it does brighten but only because this is tinted and shimmery so it looks like you put a shimmer over your puffy dark circles which is not a good look at all.
Absolute NY Nano Liner this proved really hard to use it was not like firm enough to get a nice application it was all flimsy and not super pigmented.
Deproce Cleanbello Collagen Essential Moisture Cream I could not stand the smell on this to even try to use it more then twice. It has a really strong baby powder smell that lingers. I hate the smell of baby powder I know most people like it but I can’t stand it, it gives me such a headache.

Medusa’s Makeup Setting Spray this is a pretty decent setting spray. It also weirdly to me smells like cinnamon but I think that is just me. It doesn’t burn or feel sticky which is nice but I wouldn’t actively seek it out because you have to buy it on their website.
Repurchase: No
Make Up For Ever Step 1Smoothing Primer this is definitely a smoothing primer and does a little blurring and pore filling. It was just ok I wasn’t wowed but I liked it.
Repurchase: Probably not, I have so much primer
Lotion (4)
Bath and Body Works Hand& Body Cream in Sea Salt I liked this alright it smelled sea salt like which was the goal. This is an ok hand cream but it is a little slick on the skin which I don’t prefer most of the time and it is pricey for these little tubes so I’d only buy it if it was on sale.
Repurchase: Maybe
Nivea Aloe Vera Body Lotion thiswas very sticky and smelled very aloey which I didn’t like. I got this in the fall Walmart box that just got sent out.
Repurchase: No
Fortune Cookie Soap Company Whipped Cream I Mermaid Lagoon I love these they are my favorite for my hands and arms. They are creamy and soft and smell awesome. This was a lovely fruity scent from a Peter Pan themed collection awhile ago.
Repurchase: Yes
Bath and Body Works Pretty as a Peach Lotion this is the older formula I like the older formula better. I think they may have or be reformulating again so I would try that but currently would not repurchase because I don’t like the newer super smooth shea formula or whatever it is called. I like the scent of pretty as a peach it is a real sweet nice fruity peach scent without that weird dirty tinge that fake peach scents have sometimes.
Repurchase: Maybe
Bodycare (4)
Fortune Cookie Soap Company Shimmer Body Wash in Time to Shine this was no shimmery but had a nice champagne fruit scent I liked it I almost always like their body washes.
Repurchase: Yes
Fortune Cookie Soap Company Solid Bubble Bath in BFFs this is like the lush solid bubble bars I guess but this didn’t provide any bubbles it just changed the water to a really pretty purple.
Repurchase: No
Lush Bubble Bar I think this was the tulip one but I lost the tag. These make really fluffy long lasting bubbles but the ones on the stick are not as good as the ones that don’t havethe stick the actually bars are creamier which I think is why.
Repurchase: No
Whish Body Oil in Coconut I really liked this oil it did its job it smelled nice and it lasted a long time.The packaging really sucks though. The paint on the glass bottle was dissolving and flaking off with the oil getting on it.
Repurchase: Maybe
Perfume (1)
Bath and Body Works Winter Candy Apple Fine Fragrance Mist I don’t love the winter candy apple scent it smells very middle school to me but I believe I got this free and my gf liked it on me so I would use it when I was at her house and now it is all used up. I didn’t like how the tube didn’t meet the bottom fully it like is off at an angle so there was a little bit at the bottom that was so hard to try to get sprayed out.
Repurchase: No
