La Mer The Treatment Lotion Hydrating Mask (1 mask) - I picked this up from Sephora a few months ago and finally got around to trying it. This is the most expensive single use sheet mask that I’ve ever purchased. For one mask, it retails for $40. It did truly hydrate my skin and my face was glowing after using it. There is a lot of essence left in the packet and I plan on using it over the next few days! It’s a great mask that I would only consider using before a special occasion and I won’t be purchasing this regularly.
Bioré Charcoal Deep Cleansing Charcoal Pore Strips (8 count) - I know that these aren’t the greatest for your skin but I still enjoy using them. I also got my brother to use them and I typically use it once a week. I like seeing what it pulls out of my skin!
Body
Yves Rocher Magical Shea Body Scrub (30 ml) - I purchased this on their website as part of a travel trio. This scrub was just alright and I found that I had to use a lot of product in the shower. I prefer my scrubs to be more gritty and this was almost like a cream consistency. The scent was just alright but it isn’t a bad product.
Bath & Body Works
Scentportable in Pumpkin Cupcake (6 ml) - This is such a great fragrance for the colder months and I always get compliments when people come into my car.
Hair
Sephora Jojoba Protecting Oil (100 ml) - This is a multi-purpose oil that you can use on your face, body and hair. I bought this maybe 2.5 years ago right when I seen it available online. You are getting 100 ml which is a lot of product for an oil. It made my hair so silky smooth and soft. I really liked the packaging and it took me awhile to use up while using it on my hair every single day. I think they have discontinued this product sadly but I would definitely repurchase if it was still available.
Samples - Face
LANEIGE Firming Sleeping Mask (2x 5 ml) - This has a different smell than the Water Sleeping Mask as this one is more fragranced. It is also thicker in consistency. This claims to help strengthen the skin’s moisture barrier and it also hydrates the skin.
LANEIGE Water Bank Moisture Cream (2 ml) - I have used this in the past and I really am a fan of this cream. It feels great on the skin and it is very hydrating. It says that it is infused with Hydro Ionized Mineral Water & Biogen Technology. I would definitely purchase a larger size of this.
LANEIGE Bright Renew Capsule Sleeping Mask (3 ml) - These are a one time use sleeping mask from LANEIGE. It claims to be hydrating and brightening. I would agree with that claim but I found there to be a strong scent. I found that there was a lot of product and I used one capsule over the course of a few days. I did bring this when I traveled a few times. The packaging reminds me of how contact lenses come packaged! You open it the same way but I found it to be wasteful. I do prefer the Water Sleeping Mask more.
Vichy Minéral 89 Eye Fortifier (1 ml) - I originally didn’t know what to expect from this product as it is a gel and I’m used to using eye creams. I will say that I was pleasantly surprised and it felt really nice on the skin. Almost cooling and this packet lasted me several uses. This came as part of my free set that I won from a Vichy Giveaway online.
Derma-E Vitamin C Gentle Daily Cleansing Paste (3.5 g) - The packaging said that you can use this as a mask or as a cleanser and I used it as a cleanser. I think a mask would be better because it had a soap smell on my face that wasn’t very pleasant but it did make my skin soft and brighter. There is Vitamin C, Citrus Fruit Peel Puree and Glycolic Acid in the formula. I’d have to try it out for a longer period of time and use it as a face mask to give a better opinion.
Body
Yves Rocher Sel D’Azur (0.7 ml) - I got this for free as a sample in the last online order that I placed with Yves Rocher. Personally, I’m not a fan of this fragrance. There’s notes of cedar and citrus that I can smell. The citrus is the first thing that I could smell. I would say if you’re into this scent, this would be perfect for the summer time.
Sol De Janeiro Bum Bum Body Scrub (0.7 oz/20 g) - I got this sugar scrub as a free deluxe sample with my last Sephora order. It smells incredible like you’re on an island and it removes the dead skin from my body. My skin was so smooth after using it and I definitely would pick up a larger size!
My Burberry Black Parfum (2 ml) - I got this as a free sample at an event and I really do like the scent as it is described as warm florals. The key notes include: sun-drenched jasmine flower, candied rose and amber patchouli. This scent is right up my alley but it did not last all day and I found that I had to re-apply throughout the day. I’d say that the lasting power is 6-8 hours at most.
Teeth
Colgate Enamel Health Replenish & Polish Toothpaste (18 ml) - I decided to start using all my travel sized toothpastes and items in general because since not many people are travelling, these items are just sitting in my collection getting no attention. Overall, this is a pretty standard toothpaste that did the job and it worked fine.
