Beauty Haul

 Hi, everyone! How was your Thanksgiving weekend? We had two Thanksgiving dinners over the weekend. One on Saturday with my in-law's and one on Sunday with my family. We were going to have dinner on Thanksgiving day at one of my sister-in-law's house, but she and her family caught covid, so we had to change things up a bit. Aside from not being able to see my sister-in-law and her family, last weekend was full of fun with our families.

But anyway, here's everything I received and bought over the last few weeks.

It Cosmetics Love Is The Foundation Brush

I've heard and read great reviews on this brush, so I finally ordered one. It's really cute, but hopefully it applies foundation well.


Scunci Hair Ties 2 Pack

I had no intention to purchase this, but my son grabbed it while we were at the store and tore open the packaging...so now I have a ton of hair ties.


Benherofun Electric Straightening Brush

My husband randomly found this on Amazon and thought I would like it. I've used it a couple of times. You just run it through your hair like a brush. It doesn't really brush the hair well, but it does a decent job at straightening. To be fair though, my hair is already pretty straight, so I don't know how well this would work on someone with very curly hair.


Maskiss 24K Gold Eye Mask

My husband got a little "goody bag" from work that had some random items in it. This was one of them. I love eye masks, so I gladly took this off his hands.


Jergens Ultra Healing Moisturizer

This was also in my husband's goody bag. I like Jergens lotions, so I know I'll use this up.


Dickinson's Micellar Witch Hazel Makeup Remover

This was sent to me for review from Influenster. It removes most makeup very well but it doesn't get all of my mascara off (mostly because I'm afraid to use this on my eyes).


Soap & Glory Clean On Me Body Wash

This was sent to me from BzzAgent for review. I've already used this exact body wash before, so I already know I love it.


Tony Moly Sheet Masks in I'm Cherry Blossom, I'm Honey, and I'm Tea Tree

I've been really low on sheet masks lately so I decided to grab a few more when I purchased the It Cosmetics foundation brush.


Bath & Body Works Vanilla Bean Noel Ultimate Hydration Body Cream

I like this scent and was able to score this for free on the B&BW app by using my rewards.


It Cosmetics Confidence In Your Beauty Sleep Serum

This was also sent to me for free from BzzAgent. I've used this a few times already and it feels nice on my skin, but I haven't noticed any results yet.


That's everything for now! Thank you for stopping by, and I hope you have an amazing week!

Collective Beauty Haul

 Hello, everyone! How was your weekend? Its been blisteringly hot lately. As much as I enjoy summer, I'm very much looking forward to Autumn!

Here is everything I've picked up or received complimentary over the last few weeks.

Neutrogena Makeup Remover Wipes

These aren't necessarily my favorite, but they get the job done.


It Cosmetics Confidence In A Cream
 
I received this complimentary from BzzAgent. If you've seen my empties posts, you'll know that I've already tried this and really liked it. I'm very happy to have the full size tub!

Lancome Teint Idole Ultra Wear Care Foundation

This was also complimentary from BzzAgent. I really like this foundation, but I wish they had one shade lighter. This is their lightest shade, and it's just a tad bit too dark. Otherwise, this looks beautiful on the skin! Very glowy and not at all cakey.


Olay Fresh Outlast Star Apple & Hibiscus Body Wash

This smells heavenly! It's fruity and floral, and perfect for summer.


Anastasia Beverly Hills Nouveau Eyeshadow Palette

 I received this complimentary from BzzAgent. This palette is stunning. Aside from the one random purple shade (at first I wondered if this was a Too Faced palette lol) these are gorgeous neutrals and greens that will look amazing with any eye color.


Perricone MD Acne Relief Maximum Strength Clearing Treatment

I also received this from BzzAgent. I love this! I only use this once a day (you can use it twice a day) and I noticed a huge difference! I work in a hospital and am still required to wear a mask, so I have stubborn "mascne" and this got rid of most of it in only two weeks.

And that's everything new so far! Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you have an amazing week!

Spring Empties - 2022

 Hello, everyone! How was your weekend? It's finally getting hot here (we just had our first 100 degree day of the season) and I'm loving the sunshine! We had our first beach trip of the summer on Saturday and our son had a blast playing in the sand and running through the water.

On to the empties! Here are the products I've used up over these last few months.

Alterna Caviar Anti-Aging Clinical Densifying Foam Conditioner

I'm not a fan of this. The foam texture was weird and it didn't make my hair feel soft at all. The scent is very strong and unfortunately it's not the best smell.


Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz in Medium Brown
 
I love this brow pencil. I will always repurchase this until I find an inexpensive that I love.


Aquaphor Lip Therapy
 
I didn't like this either. The scent (and taste when it gets in your mouth) is just bad and it didn't help with my chapped lips at all. This was very thick and felt gross on my lips too.


Living Proof Intense Moisture Mask

This was nice. The scent was nice, and my hair felt so soft and healthy after using this. I would definitely purchase this.
 
 
 Soap & Glory Clean On Me
 
I really like this body wash. The smell is good, and my skin felt clean but also moisturized.
 
 
One/Size Go Off Juiciest Makeup Remover Wipes

I really wanted to like these so bad. I like the size because they're gigantic, but these were incredibly dry! Which doesn't make sense when they're advertised as "juiciest" makeup remover wipes. I also felt a weird oily residue all over my face after using these. Unfortunately, I won't repurchase these again.
 

Ole Henrickson Dewtopia 20% Acid Night Treatment

I quite enjoyed this. My skin felt so smooth and youthful thanks to this! I would repurchase this in a heartbeat.
 
 
Bath & Body Works Japanese Cherry Blossom Ultra Shea Body Cream

I love the smell of this, but I don't think I'll repurchase it any time soon. I just don't feel like it moisturizes my skin enough.
 

Bite Beauty Agave Lip Balm

This was okay. It's very thick and waxy feeling, but it did help with my chapped lips quite a bit. Unfortunately Bite Beauty is going out of business, so I can't even repurchase this if I wanted to.
 
 
I also used up a 30 oz. tub of the First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream, but it got thrown away before I could get a picture of it.
 
That's everything I was able to use up! Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you have a great week!

Beauty Haul

 Hello, everybody! How was your weekend? My birthday was last Monday. Unfortunately, I had to work. However, I did get off at 1:30, so I still had the rest of the day to enjoy with my family.

I can't believe it's summer already! This year is flying by. What are your favorite beauty products to use during the summer? Anyway, here are the beauty products I've picked up and received recently.

Verb Ghost Hair Mask

I saw this on sale on Sephora's website for $10, and since I already have the shampoo and conditioner in this line I figured I'd try it out.


Sol De Janiero Bom Dia Bright Cream

This was a freebie with my Sephora order. I've tried their Bum Bum Cream, but the scent is just too strong for me. Hopefully, this is better!


Danessa Myricks Beauty Infinite Chrome Flakes in Strobe Light

I'm kinda bummed that I spent $25 on this teeny, tiny jar. I thought it was going to be bigger. Here's hoping that it's amazing and makes up for the cost.


Si Passione Eclat Eau De Parfum by Giorgio Armani

I received this complimentary from BzzAgent for review. I love the red bottle because red is my favorite color. I like the scent, but it is a little bit more mature smelling for me. It's not bad, but it isn't something I would go out and purchase either.

These next few items were gifts for my birthday.

Heatless curlers

These are from Amazon, and I am so excited to try these out! I saw someone on Tik Tok use these and the curls are beautiful.


ILNP Nail Polishes in Rainshower and Fairy Floss
 
I love this brand of nail polish. Their holographic polishes are to die for. I'm so glad I get to add these to my collection.

Sigma x Samantha Ravndahl Brush Set

Can you believe I've never purchased a Sigma brush before? I don't know why, but they just never interested me. Then Samantha had to go and create a brush set with them and here I am with my first Sigma brushes.



Practk by Sigma Liner Brush

I don't really have anything to say about this one, but the handle is pretty cute.


Sigma Disney Princess Cinderella Lip Duo in Magical Lip Gloss and Dreamy Liquid Lipstick
 
These are beautiful lip colors that look amazing together!


 Sigma F28 Powder/Bronzer Brush
 
I've heard great things about this brush, so I'm kinda excited to use it.

 
Tula Skincare 24/7 Moisture Hydrating Day & Night Cream

This was my free birthday gift from Ulta this year.
 

I ordered a few things from Sephora (again, I know) and scored some freebie there too!

Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb in Fu$$y

I had to double check that this wasn't the exact same shade as Fenty Glow. They are very similar, but this gloss is pink toned while Fenty Glow has a brown tone. I for sure thought they were the same color at first though!



Anastasia Beverly Hills Liquid Lipstick in Sarafine

Can you also believe that I've never purchased an ABH liquid lipstick before? Lol, idk why but I just never got around to it. I love a blue toned red, so I decided to get this shade.


SK-II Pitera Facial Treatment Essence

This was a free offer with purchase. I've used this before and really like it, but the full size bottle is just so expensive.


Tatcha Trio

This was the free birthday gift I chose from Sephora this year.

  

That's all for now! Thank you for stopping by, and I hope you have a wonderful week!
