I keep waiting for that month where I really don't go through much stuff at all, and yet these things keep emptying! It is so satisfying to use something up completely- loving this! So here's my garbage.
Still working through my box of samples, and everytime that I make a big dent, I get more!! Pretty sure the samples will be never ending.
Deborah Lippman Stripper- nail polish remover towelette that you keep in your purse. It smelt somewhat of lavender- which was odd for a nail polish remover but not terrible. It worked well and was convenient since my nails always look like complete shit about 90% of the time. However, I would not pay whatever the price is for it- may look for a cheaper alternative.
Smashbox BB cream- another American BB cream- this one has great reviews and people seem to like it best. The color was a little too light for my skin, I didn't find the coverage to be more than a tinted moisturizer, and felt it left my skin greasy and tacky. Didn't even use the entire sachet, wasn't a fan.
Bliss youth as we know it moisturizer- another sachet of this. still like it and still won't pay $79 dollars for it, YET! we will see.
Sephora moisturizer- this was a decent sized sample and I got multiple uses out of it. It wasn't amazingly moisturizing and didn't leave my skin any different, but I think perhaps under makeup as a daytime moisturizer it would probably work well.
Rodial Dragon's blood sculpting gel- LOVE this. love the texture, love the smell, love how it makes my skin feel- and it's red. I am strongly considering buying this product- on the long list of maybes! I have another sample of this coming in- so after that I may have a definite answer as to whether I might buy it.
Miracle Skin- can't read the label anymore- completely worn off (hate shitty packaging) This is supposed to be a tinted body lotion that evens your skin tone. I used this on my legs a few times- it was definitely tinted- had an odd texture. But it also had shimmery glitter in it that would get all over your hands, terrible. The pigment from the lotion also transferred onto clothing and wore off pretty quickly. definitely would not purchase this.
Clinique eye makeup remover- I got this sample in a gift with purchase set, which I've pretty much given everything else in the set away. I bought the full size of this product- but won't buy it again. It is OK, doesn't get off mascara as well as I had hoped and leaves skin a little greasy, but plus side is that it doesn't burn eyes.
L'occitane hand cream- This was the hibiscus scent- it smelt more citrusy than I thought it would be. It was nice, went on smooth, sunk into skin quickly. I put this on every night before bed- I would consider purchasing more of these.
Organic Indulgence Body wash- LOVED this smell it was pear and fig. amazing. It lathers well, smells good, and doesn't dry out your skin- what more can you want in a body wash. I purchased another one in a different smell, but do LOVE this smell.
Up and Up cotton rounds- another bag of these gone. they are OK- do leave some fuzz on your face- so that is annoying.
Macadamia Deep Repair Masque- so at first I was completely smitten with this product, towards the end, not as much. Still LOVE the smell of this, but I don't feel like it is repairing my hair like it says, I think it is just a deep conditioning treatment that will make my hair feel soft for a little bit but eventually wears off. I am trying other hair masks to see the difference.
Benefit They're Real Mascara- such a sad day when this was too dry to use anymore, and unfortunately that day happened to be Thanksgiving. I attempted to put it on- and it was FULL ON spider lashes- looked terrible. So, since my eye makeup was already done, I had to McGyver a makeup wipe to get off the mascara and apply something different. I will definitely repurchase this mascara. I have a lot of others that I am trying to get through, but after that- this will be mine again. It adds volume, length, everything- constantly get compliments on my eyes when I wear it.
Joico Color Endure Conditioner- I know a lot of people like this brand, but I wasn't crazy about this conditioner. It was decent- but nothing great. Wouldn't repurchase.
Lush Ocean Salt- went through another tub of this- again love the smell. Leaves my skin soft, and I do love this salt scrub. I am using other scrubs now, but would repurchase this again.
Espa soothing face mask- as you can see I didn't use all of this up. It claims to be a soothing mask, but it would immediately start to make my face tingle and burn and would leave my skin red and irritated. Pretty sure that this broke me out too. Not sure if I'm allergic or it's the actual product that sucks, either way its garbage.
