August Empties | 2019

Hey everyone! Summer is coming to an end and let's check out all of my empty products I went through last month!

Face

YSL Top Secrets Eye Makeup Remover Bi-Phase (30 ml) - I had this for a while as it came with part of a kit and it did the job to remove all my eye makeup. I appreciated the fact that it is not greasy on the skin and doesn’t leave a residue. You need to shake it up because it is a bi-phase remover so the two can mix together and get activated to begin working. For 100 ml of product, it is $38 which is rather expensive and I’d say to check out cheaper options before committing to the full size.

MAC Lightful Marine-Bright Formula Softening Lotion (30 ml) - I purchased this at the Estée Lauder Warehouse Sale | September 2018 for $5. Honestly, after I bought it, I was finishing up some of my products and when I went to use it, I then realized that it was basically a toner. I feel like I enjoy using my rose water so much that nothing really compares. This wasn’t a bad product but it wasn’t what I thought it was and I believe that they have revamped this product recently.

Sheet Masks

Trader Joe’s Rich Hydrating Face Sheet Mask (20 ml) - I could never recommend this to anyone as it burned and irritated my skin while it was on. My skin felt warm and I do not have sensitive skin! I did end up Googling to see if anyone else had the same experience as I did and the floodgates opened! Also, my skin felt sticky after removing it and I would never use it again.

Garnier Moisture Bomb Sheet Mask with Sakura Extract (32 ml) -I featured this in my June Empties and I did enjoy using it. I also gifted this to a few friends and there is a lot of essence that is leftover at the bottom for future uses!

Bath & Body Works

Scentportable in Cinnamon Caramel Swirl (6 ml) - I purchased this last year when they were having their semi-annual sale and made sure that I stocked up! This came out to just a few cents and it smells incredible! This is the perfect introduction to Fall scent and I can’t get enough of it! 

Body

Mistral Palm Luxury Bar Soap (7 oz/200 g) - I purchased this when I was in Buffalo from Anthropologie and it was originally $8, marked down to $4.95 and it was an additional 50% off the sale price. I really like the scent of this soap and it has exfoliating vanilla bean. It lasts quite a long time in the shower but the only downside is that it tends to shed in the shower parts of the natural ingredients. It is made in France and my only regret is not purchasing more because I can’t find it on the website anymore!

Equate Women’s Triple Blade Disposable Razors (4 count) - These are still my favourite disposable razors! They are $4 each making them $1 each and I tend to use them for around 1 month before I toss them. They are the best and I tend to stock-up when I see them in store! I can’t recommend these enough! 

Nails/Hands

The Body Shop Sweet Almond Oil (100 ml) - I could not find this on their website maybe due to the fact that I purchased this a few years back. It does not contain acetone and is gentle on the nails. They packaged it in plastic when it came to my house and I really enjoyed using it!

Car Scents

Ambientador De Coche - Francisco Aragón (6 ml) - I purchased this while in Spain and I can’t find the exact scent online anymore but it is the green apple one. I found that while using these in the Summer, they run out so fast compared to when I used the previous one in the Winter. I think the heat really causes the liquid to evaporate quickly. I preferred this one over the  other one because the scent wasn’t too overpowering.

Miscellaneous

Equate Cotton Rounds (100 Rounds) - They are some of my favourite cotton rounds that are very inexpensive from Wal Mart. I have gone through countless packs and am currently using a new pack! I use these with my toner for my face and with my nail polish remover.

Cinema Secrets Makeup Brush Cleaner Travel Set (60 ml) - I honestly feel like this is great for makeup artists or the busy every day person who doesn’t have time to do a full deep clean on their brushes. This allows you to get the colour or product off your brush with little down time before you need to go in again with another makeup item. I won’t be repurchasing this because I’m not a makeup artist and nothing gets my brushes as clean as when I deep clean them. You could always keep this bottle and refill it from the large size when you are travelling which saves a ton of space! It has a nice smell to it but one con is that you need to use a lot of brush cleaner to get your brushes clean. It is expensive for what it is and I use paper towel in conjunction with the brush cleaner which is wasteful in my opinion.

Promo/Samples - Face

Darphin Stimulskin Plus Multi-Corrective Divine Splash Mask Lotion (25 ml) - I received this as a deluxe sample from The Beauty Boutique. This product was designed in Paris and made in Italy. The full size version is 125 ml retailing at $160. I used this after my toner but before my cream as I would an essence. It is a nice product but it is very expensive and I would not purchase this on my own as I didn’t see a significant different in my skin’s texture or appearance.  

Amore Pacific Treatment Cleansing Foam (30 ml) - I received this as part of a set when I redeemed 500 points on Sephora’s website. I really enjoyed using this cleansing foam at night on my face and it also did further break down any remaining makeup when I used it as a second cleanser. You don’t need much product and it did not dry out my skin. This is ideal for normal to oily and oily skin types which I definitely am! My problem with cleansers is that I tend to get bored of them quickly but I didn’t get tired of this one at all and quite the opposite, I enjoyed using it each night! This is probably one of my all time favourite cleansers dare I say it! The full size retails for $60 and you get 120 ml in a squeeze tube. This is dermatologist tested and it is made in Korea.

Amore Pacific Vintage Single Extract Essence (1 ml) - This came as a sample in my Sephora order that I chose at checkout. This is definitely not a cheap product as 120 ml will run you $200. I used it once at night after I toned my face and it felt nice as it absorbed quickly into my skin but, it’s hard to say as I used it only once. I’d have to use it more than once to really give a well thought-out review, but I am a fan of the brand in general! 

Update: The price has gone up to $230 for 150 ml.

Fresh Rose Deep Hydration Face Cream (2 ml) - I have used a sample of this in the past and I truly do love this cream! It smells like fresh roses, it is thicker in texture but it feels absolutely fantastic on the skin! My skin feels so soft after using it and the first ingredient is water.

Don't forget to check out my July Empties!

Until next time,

STAY CLASSY

August Empties | 2018

Hey everyone! Sorry for getting this post up so late and excuse me for my absence, but better late than never right?

Face

Tatcha Water Cream (10 ml) - This felt very lightweight on the skin and it great to use for those with: dryness, larger pores, dull skin as well as uneven texture. It is an oil-free cream that is packed with a ton of great ingredients for the skin. They are a Japanese brand and you can find their products at Sephora. A full size jar will run you $82 and you will get 50 ml of product. 

Update: The price has gone up to $89.

Vasanti Brighten Up! Enzymatic Face Rejuvenator (40 g) - I originally got this at the Chick Advisor Spring Cleaning Event that I went to in May. I had heard of the brand but never tried any of their products. I really enjoyed using this exfoliating cleanser in the morning to get rid of all the dead skin cells on my face. It is made with some great ingredients and I do have an entire review on this product you can check out! 

Peter Thomas Roth Anti-Aging Cleansing Gel (125 ml) - This bottle actually lasted me a long time and did a great job at breaking down my makeup. I used this as my second cleanser when I would be double cleansing my face. It is a gel consistency and the full size is 240 ml for $47. It is a more expensive cleanser and will go through my current stash before I decide whether or not to purchase this cleanser again in the future.

Update: It now retails for $52.

Bioré Pink Lemonade Deep Cleansing Pore Strips Limited Edition Design (8 count) -I purchased these at Ulta in Michigan and they really do smell like citrus! The packaging of each individual pore strip is pink and the design you see in the middle of the box is the actual design on the pore strip! These are really fun and I really enjoyed switching them up from my usual white pore strips I buy from Bioré! You can't get this exact type anymore as it was limited edition.

Sheet Masks

Tony Moly Pureness 100 Caviar Sheet Mask (21 ml) - The caviar sheet mask claims to deliver rich nourishment to the skin and it is soaked in essence. There was a slight scent to it and I want to point out that the first ingredient is water. It suggests that you leave it on for 20-30 minutes and I left mine on for the maximum amount of time. This mask is made in Korea and I purchased mine at Pacific Mall. It is very affordable and it is made by non-bleached fabric which contains cotton seeds. I actually gifted this sheet mask before in the past and I will definitely continue to purchase it in the future also to use on myself!

Freeman Beauty Infusion Purifying Sheet Mask with Sea Kelp + Probiotics (25 ml) - This is a cotton mask that feels a little bit thicker but fits my face well. It claims to instantly boost clarity and restores balance. It helps with hydration and the mask is infused with serum. This was just okay in my honest opinion and I wouldn’t say that it is amongst my favourites. It reminds me of a body mist that I bought when I was younger. I purchased mine at Walmart and they do have other kinds to choose from. 

Body

Gilette Venus with Olay Vanilla Cashmere Shave Gel (198 g/7 oz) - I’m pretty sure that I have the old packaging and also positive that they did increase their price on this particular item. The new can only contains 170 g of product and it is shorter. However, I do like the scent and the formula of the old can. I’m curious to see how the new one will compare to this one. It contains 5x more moisturizers and soft, smooth skin. It is easy to use and affordable as I picked mine up originally at Walmart.

BIC Soleil Sensitive Skin Razors (4 count) - These are my favourite disposable razors and I always buy them in bulk. Each razor has 3 blades and I like the rubber grip! I purchase mine at Walmart and they have been my go-to for years!

Bath & Body Works

Car Fragrance Refill in Mango Dragonfruit (6 ml) -This is a great scent for the warmer months and I have gone through a few of these already! I’m still not sick of this scent yet and it reminds me of a tropical paradise!

Gentle Foaming Hand Soap in Beautiful Day (259 ml) - I really like this scent and love that it comes in different forms. The notes include: sun kissed apple, sparkling cassis and wild daisies. The formula contains coconut oil and I like the font on the packaging a lot!

Hair

Love Beauty And Planet Volume and Bounty Shampoo in Coconut Water & Mimosa Flower (400 ml) - This shampoo smells great, it lathers well in the shower, there is an awesome message behind the brand and it’s very affordable! I have been trying out several products out from this brand and have liked all of them so far! I do have a more in-depth review that you can check out!  

Teeth

Crest 3D White No Slip Classic Vivid Whitestrips (20 strips - 10 treatments) - These really did a great job at whitening my teeth and I even got compliments on my teeth! I used one strips once every week or two and I usually left mine on for 1 hour even though it says to leave it on for 30 minutes on the back of the box. It claims to remove 5 years worth of stains. I would repurchase these in a heartbeat! 

Supplements

Emergen-C Effervescent Powder in Tropical (30 packets) - I have been purchasing this product for years and wanted to try-out this flavour in particular as it was new to me. I wasn’t the biggest fan and I found that there was a weird aftertaste. I do like the product in general but not a fan of the tropical flavour.

Promo/Samples - Face

Greeniche Naturalene Cleansing Wipe (1 count) - I received this free at a festival to try-out. There are a lot of benefits to this product such as it containing: natural fibres, it’s vegan and they use natural ingredients. I found the wipe to be on the drier side, it smelled like a cleaning product to me and it was rather rough on my face. I wasn’t a fan of it and I wouldn’t purchase these.

Body

Le Petit Marseillais Mandarin & Lime Body Wash (2 x 10 ml) - I actually received these in my Glamour Voxbox and I have also used this product in the past. I love all things lime and also really liked the fact that this product foamed up nicely in the shower. There is a generous amount of product in each sample pack and it is perfect for travel!

Gillette Venus Platinum Extra Smooth (1 razor, 2 cartridges) - I have used Venus razors in the past and have always been impressed! This razor has 5 blades and it gave me a close shave. This is the platinum edition that comes with a solid metal handle which is molded to fit your hand. I really enjoyed using it and you have probably seen the commercials on television already!  

Hair

Love Beauty And Planet Argan Oil & Lavender Smooth & Serene Shampoo (10 ml) - I love the smell of this shampoo and it lathered really well in the shower! I actually received this sample at a Target in Michigan that I went to. I have been really impressed with this brand and loved everything that I have tried from them so far!

Love Beauty And Planet Argan Oil & Lavender Smooth & Serene Conditioner (10 ml) - I had a bad experience with a Lavender Conditioner in the past and finally found my favourite lavender conditioner! Both the shampoo and the conditioner are targeted to those with frizzy hair which I have. I can’t say enough good things about the duo!

DryBar On The Rocks Clarifying Charcoal Shampoo (7 ml) - The charcoal is supposed to help remove impurities and build-up without drying out the hair. It lathered well, the consistency was a little thicker which I did not mind and there was enough in the sample packet to use for my entire heard of hair. It didn’t do anything miraculous to my hair and it does run a bit expensive as 250 ml of product will cost you $30.

Update: The price has gone up to $34.

DryBar On The Rocks Lightweight Replenishing Conditioner (7 ml) - In my opinion, the conditioner smelled way better for some reason. It was an excellent conditioner and really did a great job at conditioning my hair. This was my first time ever trying anything from this brand! It claims to be good for all hair types including fine.

Until next time,

August Empties | 2017

Hey everyone! It is time again for another round of empties! Let's dive in and see which products I have used up this month!

Face/Eyes

Splash One Day Soft Lenses - These are by far among the best contact lenses that I have ever used. They are extremely comfortable and even though it is for one day use, I must admit that I have used a pair for a few days before. I highly recommend them and they are affordable as well as convenient to buy as I purchase mine online at cleary.ca

The Body Shop Vitamin C Energising Face Mist (100 ml) - This lasted me longer than I honestly thought that it would. I wouldn’t say that it is amongst my favourite products from The Body Shop and I am in no rush to repurchase it. I would tend to use this spray at night to lock in all of my creams, lotions and serums. This is a vegan product.

Body

Nest Fragrances in Dahlia & Vines (5 ml) - This is an ideal scent for Summer or Spring and mine is small enough to fit inside my purse or travel with which proved to be very convenient. The notes are: dewy daffodils, peony and rose that are blended with the essence of garden vines. The fragrance isn’t too strong and lingers nicely throughout the day.

Dove Advanced Care Go Fresh Rebalance Anti-Perspirant (45 g) - The scent was subtle on this and it definitely lasted me all day. If I worked during the day and went out at night, I would reapply. The only con is that if you don’t apply the stick evenly to your armpit, it can transfer onto your clothes. I ended up applying the stick to my underarms and then using my fingers to rub it in completely.

Teeth

Crest 3D White Toothpaste in Radiant Mint (135 ml) - I have used this toothpaste in the past and it does last quite a but of time! I like the flavour and my teeth felt clean after each use.

Bath & Body Works

Springtime in Paris Gentle Foaming Hand Soap (259 ml) -This was nice to use but it definitely isn’t one of my favourite scents from Bath & Body Works. The notes in this fragrance include: citrus zest, peach blossom and peony petals. You can definitely smell the citrus in this hand soap!

Eucalyptus Mint Deep Cleansing Hand Soap (236 ml) -This is a nice smelling hand soap and the mint isn’t too overpowering. I actually smelled more Eucalyptus than anything in this scent and it reminds me of an aromatherapy scent.

Miami Mint Mojito Gentle Foaming Hand Soap (259 ml) - This scent definitely reminded me of a tropical drink and it an all around fabulous scent. The notes include: fresh lime, juicy pear and green mint leaf.

Promo/Samples - Hair

Herbal Essences Bio Renew Argan Oil of Morocco Shampoo & Conditioner (10 ml) - The scent is incredible and I really liked the formula! There are no parabens, colorants or gluten inside. I am definitely considering purchasing the full sized version of both once I run out of my current shampoo and conditioner! 

Biore Baking Soda Pore Cleanser (30 ml) - I actually have the full sized version of this and I was using this for when I was traveling. I really love this cleanser and it is my favourite one sold at the drugstore currently. I like to use it right in the morning when I wake up and it also does a great job at removing my makeup! My face feels fresh and clean after using it rather than tight, stripped or dry.

Face & Body

Ahava Dead Sea Water Mineral Body Lotion Sea-Kissed (6 ml) - This was a sample with my Sephora order and I really enjoyed using it! The scent is described as a ‘fresh breeze of marine and floral notes.’ It absorbs into the skin quickly, it is not sticky or greasy and your skin feels soft and moisturized!

Ahava Essential Day Moisturizer Time To Hydrate (3 ml) - This absorbed quickly in my skin and there was no sticky or messy residue left behind. The scent is very subtle and this product is targeted to those with normal to dry skin. It is on the more expensive side though because 1.7 oz is $55 CAD/$46 USD.

Dior J’adore Eau de Toilette (1 ml) - This was a free sample that was included with my order from Sephora. The notes include: Sicilian Blood Orange, Damascus Rose and Grasse Neroli. It is described as a tangy floral fragrance. 

Teeth

Smile Brilliant Whitening Gel & Desensitizing Gel (3 ml each) - I have been swearing by this product for many months now and I have recommended it to several people. Many friends, acquaintances and just random people have commented on how white my teeth are.

Until next time,

August Empties | 2015

Hey everyone! It's time for another month of empties and another chance for you to see which products I went through this month as well as my honest opinion on each one.

Hair

Garnier Fructis Full & Plush - Fortifying Shampoo & Garnier Fructis Full & Plush - Fortifying Conditioner - I loved the smell of these products from the Full & Plush line! This is my second set of both products and it’s safe to say that I would definitely consider purchasing the full sized version of both to use in conjunction with one another. 

Face

Lancome - Hypnose Drama Instant Full Body Volume Mascara (sample) - I redeemed 100 points at Sephora for this mascara. It lasted me quite some time but overall, I wasn’t a huge fan. I say this because it didn’t give my lashes the volume that I was expecting it to and also, I had to apply several layers to my lashes. I have long lashes and I mainly buy volumizing mascaras. I was quite disappointed with this one. The brush head comes in an S shape, I honestly didn’t care for and this mascara flakes on me throughout the day. There is also a strange smell to it. Tip: do NOT wear this mascara on your bottom lashes on a hot summer day because it will transfer onto your skin and make you look like a raccoon! (It happened to me several times!)

Bioré Deep Cleansing Pore Strips (14 count - 7 of each kind inside the box) - I really liked how there were both the face and nose strips because I have just been using the nose strips for years! I even used the face strips on my nose and it works just as well.

Elizabeth Grant Caviar Nutruriche with Torricelumn Eye Balm - This is the second jar of this particular product that I have gone through and I really am not a fan of it. The smell is bizarre and by comparing the two formulas, they definitely were not the same. One was more liquid-y than the other and from using this eye cream for a few months now, I still have yet to see results. I would not recommend this product. Also, I just want to point out that my mother even used this product as well and has seen no difference in her mature skin.

The Body Shop Tea Tree Facial Wash (sample size - 5 ml) - I tried this out and it does a great job at cleansing my face at the end of a long day. It took off my mascara as well which is another plus. It is kind of like a gel that turns into a foam. I would consider purchasing it in the future.

Olay Fresh Effects Shine, Shine Go Away! Shine Minimizing Cleanser (sample - 20 ml) - This was a pretty standard cleanser. I do have another one that I have to go through but I am indifferent to this one. It did the job but didn’t do anything outstanding in my opinion. The formula is a grey colour but doesn’t transfer onto the skin that colour.

Hands

Bath & Body Works Gentle Foaming Hand Soap in Peach Bellini - This scent is one of my favourite scents of all time from B&BW. I have purchased different items in this particular scent and am still not sick of it! It is one of my go-to scents and is great for giving as a gift.

Bath & Body Works Gentle Foaming Hand Soap in Scarlet Pumpkin - This was a great scent that really reminds me that fall is just around the corner (sadly!) I smell a little bit of cinnamon in this soap which is a little twist to the soap.

Bath & Body Works Gentle Foaming Hand Soap in Boardwalk Vanilla Cone - This scent is a summer staple in my household! We have multiples of these on hand and can’t get enough of the delicious vanilla smell. It definitely screams summer and it reminds you of a nice treat on a perfect summer’s day!

L’Occitane Hand Cream in Vanilla Bouquet - 20% Shea Butter (sample - 10 ml) - I adored this scent! However, the formula in my opinion isn’t that good. I like the vanilla scent more than the rose. Although I enjoyed using it, the formula isn’t my favourite and I would not purchase it for that reason alone.

Vitamins

Nature’s Bounty Hair, Skin & Nails Gummies with Biotin (80 count) - I have an entire blog post dedicated to these gummies. I recommend them to everyone that asks about my nails and have even successfully got my family members to try them out. I can’t say enough good things about them!

Nature’s Bounty Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc with Vitamin D3 (200 caplets) - This is my second bottle of these vitamins. I have been taking them for half a year about and haven’t noticed anything different. I don’t think they are necessary for me personally. It claims on the bottle that it helps maintain bones but I really can't speak to that.

Miscellaneous

Johnson’s Baby Creamy Wash - This was the pink formula and I really didn’t care for it! I normally love Johnson’s Baby products but this one didn’t cut it for me. The scent wasn’t my favourite and I would not repurchase this particular item from the brand.

Johnson’s Baby Shampoo - This has been a staple in my bathroom for years and still will be for years to come. I can’t rave about this product enough! I use it to clean my makeup brushes as well as for many other things among cleaning my Alex & Ani bracelets.

Mitchum Gel Anti-Perspirant & Deodorant (Shower Fresh Scent) - I honestly think I got a bad batch! I purchased this in a two-pack when I was in the USA a while back and had no problems with the other stick. This one however leaked on my counter, on my hands and pretty much everywhere! It was messy to work with and poured out into the cap often times! It was watery and the formula would move from side to side in the stick before my very eyes. I understand that this is a gel but the consistency was more like water. None of the other bottles that I have ever purchased were like this one.

Crest 3D White Toothpaste - Brilliance - I had received an email with Shakira who was promoting this product and was totally suckered into trying it. It was on sale so i couldn’t resist. It was overpriced and didn’t do anything outstanding to make my teeth that much whiter. I would say skip this product.

Up & Up Cotton Balls (200 count) - I love these cotton balls from Target and they are really inexpensive. They are made with 100% real cotton. I will have to stock-up on these next time that I am in The States!

Thanks for stopping by!

STAY CLASSY.

P.S. THIS BLOG POST IS BY NO MEANS SPONSORED. ALL OPINIONS ARE MY OWN.

August & September Empties | 2014

Hey everyone! I didn't have that many empties for the month of August. I made an executive decision to combine two month's worth of empties and make a collective blog post. As you can tell by the picture, I have used up quite a few products.

Hands

Bath & Body Works Fresh Picked Heirloom Cranberries Anti-Bacterial Gentle Foaming Hand Soap - This was a decent smelling hand soap. It is perfect for the upcoming fall season!

Bath & Body Works Coconut Lime Verbena Anti-Bacterial Gentle Foaming Hand Soap - I have repurchased this scent countless times and will continue to do so because of the fresh smell.

Bath & Body Works Fresh Peach Bellini Anti-Bacterial Gentle Foaming Hand Soap - This particular scent is one of my top 3 all time favourite Bath & Body Works scents. Any product they create with this smell is one I will definitely look into purchasing.

Bath & Body Works White Citrus Anti-Bacterial Gentle Foaming Hand Soap - This is another scent that has a very fresh and clean scent to it.

Face

Olay Fresh Effects (Everything Off!) Deluxe Make-Up Removal Wet Cloths (25 Towelettes) - I did not thoroughly enjoy these wipes. They dried out quickly and I didn't like the texture and fell of the actual wipes themselves. I would not repurchase them.

Pampers Kandoo Flushable Wipes (Unscented - 50 Wipes) - I did not care for these wipes. They are small and tear easily. Unfortunately, I do have one more pack remaining of them that I need to use up and you will see them in an upcoming empties.

L'Oreal Paris Revitalift Radiant Smoothing Cream Cleanser - I purchased this on clearance one day from Target. If it wasn't marked down, I wouldn't have even thought to buy it to be honest. This cream cleanser was very standard and I will not be raving about it any time soon. I also went through it very fast.

Hair

Exact Kids' Detangler - I just bought the cheaper brand and it worked just the same as the L'Oreal one.

Psssst! Instant Dry Shampoo - Just a basic dry shampoo. I purchased it for $1.99 at Walgreens or Rite Aid and would repurchase it again only because of the price.

L'Oreal Paris Ever Strong Bodify Conditioner (Rosemary Mint) - I have gone through several of these throughout the years and love the formula.

Make-Up

EOS Lip Balm in Blueberry Acai - I was on the hunt for this specific flavour for the longest time and when I finally came across it at Target, I had to purchase it. Overall, I am pretty much over EOS lip balms. I have one more that I am currently using and then I will not be buying any more.

Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter in #095 Creme Brulee - I love the creamy formula and I have received a lot of compliments on the natural colour it gives to my lips.

Revlon ColorStay Whipped Foundation in 320 Warm Golden - Holy grail foundation! Need I say more?

ELF Make Up Mist & Set - Another holy grail item. I have countless back-ups of it.

NYX HD Photogenic Concealer in CW04 Beige - I really do love the formula but the only downfall is how quickly I go through this concealer. I wish that they changed the packaging and there was more product.

CoverGirl Bombshell Volume Mascara in Black - I hated this mascara. I didn't finish it in it's entirety because one side dried out before the other and isn't the point of it to be able to use both sides one right after each other?

MAC Mineralize Skin Finish in Soft & Gentle - This product literally lasted me years ! I have had this for so long that in the photo you can tell that this is the old packaging. MAC has since come out with new packaging. I love this product and would repurchase in the future. Currently though, I am trying out a few new highlighters.

Samples

First Aid Beauty (FAB) Face Cleanser - I really did not care for this cleanser and I have no desire to purchase the full sized version.

Agave Healing Oil - Oil Treatment - I did like the product but I'm not completely sold on trying out the full size of this product.

Fresh Life Eau de Parfum - It is very fresh smelling, but the scent isn't for me.

Elizabeth and James Nirvana Black  - Very musky smelling. Would not commit to the full version.

Elizabeth and James Nirvana White - A very floral scent and it reminds me of a fragrance that my grandmother would wear. (I am not into overly strong floral scents.)

Miscellaneous

Johnson's Baby Shampoo - Holy grail item. I have already repurchased and been using the new product.

St. Ives Fresh Skin Apricot Scrub - I have been using this since my high school days and have been finally trying out a new product instead of this one. I would go back to this one any day! It will not be forgotten in the past.

Million Dollar Tan - Cabana Tan Extreme - Dark Sunless Tanning Lotion - I really enjoyed using this product. The bottle is on the smaller size and it can get expensive, but the quality is definitely there!

Until next time,

STAY CLASSY.
