I really knocked this month out of the park I used up so much and so much value. I am really really pleased.
Skincare (14)
Freeman’s Hydrating Cactus + Cloudberry Water Gel Mask this is my favorite I know it is a mask but I actually use it as a regular moisturizer it is so light and water like it’s like the Peter Thomas Roth Cloud Moisturizer but way way cheaper and smells better. It has gotten really hard to find which makes me sad but I have some in my stash.
Repurchase: Yes
Herbivore Bakuchiol I don’t love Bakuchiol but I had this little sample so I just used it up, because I didn’t feel like putting it away.
Repurchase: No
Shangpree Peppermint Mask uh I have no idea where this came from it does not exist any longer. It was fine it was a regular sheet mask and it was cooling I don’t think it did much.
Repurchase: No
Shiseido Bio-Performance Super Corrective Eye Cream I don’t think this eye cream is worth the price but it works its hydrating it lifts a little maybe.
Repurchase: No
Kiehl’s Brightening Botanical Spot Treatment they don’t make this anymore it did brighten my one little freckly thing but very very slowly and very very minimally.
Repurchase: No
Clinique Moisture Surge 72 Hour Auto-Replenishing Hydrator this was fine I liked it better then the yellow lotion or the clear jelly one.
Repurchase: Maybe
Peach & Lily Power Calm Hydrating Cleanser I hated this it did not leave my skin feeling clean it felt like their was a gel soap feel left on my skin after and that any makeup remenates were not removed. If you have terribly dry skin maybe but even then I think you can find better hydrating cleansers that leave your skin clean and hydrated. This was awful. I suffered thru using this for awhile.
Repurchase: No
7th Heaven Green Tea Peel Off Mask I really liked this my face felt clean and smooth after. It peeled off really nice in one peace and it didn’t hurt or get caught on any baby hairs. A+
Repurchase: Yes
Soo Ae Nature Collagen Essence Green Tea Mask this was fine a basic collagen moisture mask. Enough serum to spread to my neck and chest.
Repurchase: No
The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 this was fine. If I want another hyaluronic acid serum in my life I would totally buy this.
Repurchase: Yes
Leaders Amazonian Acai Anti-Pollution Mask I didn’t like this it was hard to put on because of the way it was wrapped in multiple layers of supporting fabric. It was quite sticky and I didn’t see it do anything.
Repurchase: No
Clinique Take the Day Off Makeup Remover Towelettes this is no where near as good as the balm or the liquid. I have a few of these but I will not ever buy or recommend these just get the balm or liquid they are far superior. These are super greasy but they don’t take off all my makeup and leave that greasy feeling behind.
Repurchase: No
Skyn Iceland Dissolving Microneedle Eye Patches these were really hard to wear they did not stick well and I don’t feel like they did anything at all.
Repurchase: No
Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench Hyaluronic Cloud Cream nice gel moisturizer is feels nice and wet. I like it.
Repurchase: Maybe, I have my Freeman’s that pretty similar but getting hard to find

Oh K! Intense Moisture Night Rescue Heel Patches these don’t work and I had trouble with them starting to peel off in the middle of the night and sticking to my sheets.
Repurchase: No
Wet n Wild Flat Foundation Brush I like to use cheap foundation brushes to apply my face masks this is my favorite for that but after a ton of masks and washing they wear out pretty quick so it is time for this one to go but I love these.
Repurchase: Yes
CVS Professional Polish Remover 100% Pure Acetone this was fine. It got the job done. It takes me forever to use up nail polish remover.
Repurchase: No I would buy a cheaper one
Whish Hair Inhibiting Gel I loved this. I think it did do a little to slow hair growth but I loved how this felt on my skin after I shaved it made my legs feel so smooth and sleek but not stick or wet. Sadly they don’t make this anymore.
Repurchase: ☹
Home Scents (7)
Bath and Body Works Wallflower in Merry Mimosa this was fine. I was neither overly impressed or unimpressed. Not a favorite though.
Repurchase: No
Bath and Body Works Lemon Mint Leaf Candle this is a favorite I love how bright and clean the lemon mint is and it has a really great scent throw.
Repurchase: Yes
SpaRoom Cedar Citrus Reed Diffuser Refill this was ok a little more woody then I prefer but it lasted a really really long time in my diffuser. I don’t love reed diffuser so I wouldn’t repurchase but it was fine.
Repurchase: No
Bath and Body Works Garden Sage & Mint Gentle Foaming Hand Soap this was perfectly serviceable soap smelled nice worked fine the foaming is fun.
Repurchase: Maybe, I am not super attached to hand soap
FCS Secret Stash Potpourri in Amas Veritas this is intense in scent but it is very light dispersered through the room I like it its pretty and purple and kinda fun.
Repurchase: Probably not though not my thing
FCS Wax Tart in Always on My Mind great scent through good scent A+.
Repurchase: Maybe
Huntington Home Scented Candle in Sicilian Orange & Sage ended up not smelling as good as I wanted but it was a good candle and the glass was very pretty.
Repurchase: Not this scent but I would try others
Lip (1)
QMS Medicosmetics Lip Line Corrector well this product was just super ridiculous. This is one of those like made up fake feeling brands because you can only get them on their own website and no one has ever heard of them and the prices are all completely outrageous. This is a $200 anti line lip serum. Did it work who knows? Did I use it every day for like a year yes. But I don’t have lines in my lips so I have no real way of comparing if this worked or not. I did just get a similar product from Exuviance another ridiculously priced brand but still some how less then half the price of this so I guess I’ll use that all up and see if it compares? I really don’t know but for that price you could just go get lip fillers and I would recommend that over this product.
Repurchase: Not even if I had millions of dollars
Lotion (1)
Earth Theraputics Heel Repair this was fine and a good thick lotion but I think heel lotions are such a waste of money I go through so fast and they are so much more expensive then regular lotion that I can get more use out of.
Repurchase: No
Bodycare (7)
Bath and Body Works Havana Shower Gel this smelled really good I love cherimoya scents to this was great unfortunately all the really good unique scents never come back.
Repurchase: Yes
Kneipp Mineral Bath Salt in Arnica this was good it did a lot to ease my muscles this was really nice.
Repurchase: Yes
Sudsy Duck Soapery Bath Bomb in Intoxicating Power this was great it smelled good it was fun it really dyed the water but didn’t stain my tub. It also came with a super pretty crystal necklace in it. I would love to buy more but this brand doesn’t have a live website they seem to only wholesale for small companies.
Repurchase: I would
The Fairy Hideout Luxury Foot Soak in Tea’s Resurrection this smelled great but as an Epsom salt muscle soak it was not effective at all.
Repurchase: No
Thyme at the Farm Bath Fizzy in Georgia’s Favorite Fics this was fine felt nice I added it to the foot soak just for some more scent and color because it was such a tiny little amount.
Repurchase: No
Bath and Body Works Shower Gel in Malibu Heat I did not like Malibu as much as Havana this was fine but not as good as a lot of other Bath and Body Works Shower gels are in terms of scents.
Repurchase: No
FCS Shimmer Shower Oil in Love-Me Chain I didn’t love the glitter in this but the scent I adored.
Repurchase: No
Haircare (6)
Redken Nature Shampoo All Soft I hated everything about this it made my hair feel like straw and it was so so watery. I am not at all shocked that this nature line has been discontinued.
Repurchase: No
Redken Nature Conditioner All Soft this conditioner was fine it made my hair soft and it was fine using it but I didn’t love it and I wouldn’t want to buy anything from this line with all the problems I had with the other items I tried just not a fan.
Repurchase: No
Redken Nature Shampoo Extreme
Redken Nature Conditioner Extreme
These are not pictured they got accidently thrown away. This is another one the shampoo was super watery and it left my hair feeling very dry.
Repurchase: No
Authentic Beauty Concept Glow Mask I hate the way this mask smells but it makes my hair look and feel really great. It makes my hair feel soft and smooth and does make my fantasy colored hair kinda “glow” like it does when it is freshly dyed.
Repurchase: Yes
Suave Smooth Performer Anti-Frizz Cream this is ok. I don’t love the scent but it does make my hair smoother and ger rid of frizz but I don’t like this nearly as much as Bed Head After Party so I wouldn’t buy this over that.
Repurchase: No

Bare Minerals Mineralist Lipstick in Honesty I don’t care for the texture of this it feels very old school lipstick texture and I don’t like that. The color also pulls very very pink on me which is not my thing either.
Hank and Henry Living in Color Palette the quality of this is fine the colors are fine it’s just so chunky and I never pick it up.
Wet n Wild Eyeshadow Palette in 669A Fire
Wet n Wild Eyeshadow Palette in 667A Air
These were a cool concept but the bubble top packaging makes them hard to store and they overly shimmery glittery colors makes me not want to use these ever.
Luna Magic Beauty Va-Va Voom Pink Lash Primer I was hoping this would act like a pink mascara it did not and I don’t like lash primers so bye bye. Formula 10.0.6 Pure Tone Vitamin B Refining Light Gel Toner this does nothing I don’t like it.
I used up so much I know a large chunk of the value was that one crazy priced serum but even with out it I used up a ton of value. SO really really happy with all that I used up and be able to let go of a few things.
