hi guys! it's august already?! that's crazy! but in other news, that means my house will be finished that much sooner..? lol. something like that.. anyway, hope you had a great july and onto my trash. ~Lindsay-chan ^.~
- member's mark makeup remover wipes
- tree hut sugar scrub in coconut lime
- clinique ddm gel
- clinique clarifying lotion 3
- aveeno positively smooth shave gel
- neutrogena (clear) shampoo
- biore baking soda pore cleanser
- maybelline fit me matte+poreless foundation in 120
- maybelline baby skin primer
- the body shop tea tree oil
- rimmel stay matte translucent powder
- it cosmetics bye bye under eye concealer in light
- benefit hoola lite
- estee lauder double wear light in intensity 2.0
- it cosmetics bye bye under eye cream -- this was definitely worth the try and vast amount of samples i received. and while i did like this, i'm not sure if it was as great as tarte's. i think this one is a better warmer weather type product, and tarte is better for colder weather and dryer spots.
repurchase? nah - christophe robin sea salt hair scrub -- i almost didn't try this sample when i got it in my sephora play box, but i thoroughly enjoyed using this. i got maybe 5-6 uses out of this jar, which i was impressed by. so it's not super obvious by the label on the packaging and no i didn't write it's actual name here, but it's a salt scrub for your hair. whaat? anyway, this has some pretty coarsely ground salt particles in a sort of shampoo gel hybrid that lathers amazingly. this also has a nice scent, but borders on salon smell, if that's not your preference.
repurchase? yes - shea moisture jamaican black castor oil styling lotion -- this thing lasted eternity and a half. and i have long hair. anyway, i really enjoyed the scent of this and how it'd make my hair feel once dry, but i'm not sure if i'd go back for another just because it didn't overly wow me.
repurchase? nah - benjabelle brush cleansing balm -- i love my benjabelle brush tree, broken and hot glued legs and all! (replacement legs are $10 but i'm lazy..) but this balm was just ok. this product does work and it does clean brushes, but i was pretty indifferent about using it for some reason. i primarily used this on precision and eye brushes just because it was easier and more manageable that way.
repurchase? nah - caress tahitian renewal body wash -- so you guys know i love my caress and tone body washes. they're inexpensive and they're the formula that i like. this however was annoying to use. this has pomegranate seeds (presumably ground ones) and it made it pretty difficult to dispense. like i was barely 1/4 through the bottle and i'd have to keep the bottle on its side or upside down to make it less annoying to get out. i'm not sure if that was what was clogging the cap or if the gel like formula of this that was doing that. on a different note, it's really nice and fruity!
repurchase? not this scent - peter thomas roth clear acne dots -- so this packet contains 12 dots, and it's 24 for $12 which is a good deal relative to the peace out acne dots i just bought (more on those later...) at first, i wasn't sure if these were doing much, but after using several, i think they were. i typically wore these overnight and peeled them off in the morning, and by the end of the day or next, blemishes be gone! some complaints about these, they're clear and comfortable, and you may forget about them. but they are super matte and slightly shiny, so you'll see them. and second, they're difficult to remove from the plastic. like not super difficult, but i'd often curl the edge underneath and stick it to itself when i am first trying to apply it. so just be aware. and they are relatively easy to peel back up and re-position if necessary.
repurchase? undecided - yes to tomatoes detoxifying charcoal mud mask -- i honestly don't remember much about this mask. i want to say i broke out a day or two later, but that's kind of expected with something that's 'detoxifying', lol.
repurchase? undecided - leaders labotica green tea sheet mask -- i don't remember this one either... >.< i'll just say, if it didn't leave a lasting impression, it was just whatever.
repurchase? nah - sky organics bath bombs (adult) gift set -- for the price, i think that this is a great value. the thing about this set that made me only think it was ok was the variety of scents. i think it's a good variety, but for me personally, i don't like certain scents so i wasn't as huge of a fan when using some. i can't remember which ones, but i felt like several had faint scents. not that i was expecting strong scents from these, but after a few minutes i no longer really noticed them. conversely, maybe 2 of them were pretty strong and smelled awesome...whichever ones those were... and as a whole, the box arrives smelling awesome. these came individually shrink wrapped with paper labels wrapped around each one with the scent names.
repurchase? nah, but i'm interested in the kid's set - anastasia brow wiz in chocolate x2 -- i got two samples of this and these samples were kinda awful. like in packaging as well as color, since i'm my brows aren't chocolate... anyway, brow wiz is good, but kind of expensive for what you get.
repurchase? nah - living proof prime style extender spray -- i'm not sure i felt that this did much. like it was nice to spritz into damp hair, but i often used it at night so i didn't really see much of a difference than the other products i use..
repurchase? nah - butter london double decker lashes mascara -- this is a pretty good mascara. i was quite surprised since i've never really used much from butter london aside from their nail polishes. anyway, it did all the things i like, volume and separation.
repurchase? maybe - candles!
- glade No3
- the candle crate dutch apple crisp -- how long ago did i buy this? so long that it looks like she's only selling locally now, and i ain't goin to canada to buy more. which is sad because i really liked this one, but alas.
- fleur de lis candle -- i received this as a gift a couple years ago and it was half and half purple and gold wax in a vanilla type scent. it was really yummy and warm, but i'm not sure where i could get another.
- makeup geek baby face
- benefit rockateur blush -- i'm in the try to finish everything before moving mode, so i realized i was getting pretty close with this one and i ended up hitting pan on it. i'm going to continue to use it regularly until it's done. i'm not sure if i'll repurchase or not. like it's pretty but it's not super amazing (anymore, lol!)
repurchase? undecided
makeup graveyard - cnd air dry topcoat -- i cannot remember if i even used this twice. did i even use this once? look at this thing! i was digging through my drawer and noticed that this dried into a gelatinous solid blob. kinda sad, but i've probably had it a while....
