Beauty Haul

 Hello, everyone! How was your 4th? We have a newborn, so we didn't do much. We just let our 5 year old do some sparklers in the backyard. Which is perfectly fine with me because its been way too hot here to be outside for a long period of time.

So, I picked up quite a few new products over the last couple of months. Let me know if you've tried any of these out and if you liked them!

Bio-Oil Skincare Oil

I tried a skincare oil one time, and I really liked how it made my skin look and feel. Now I'm excited to be trying out different brands. I haven't used this one before, but the reviews are good!

The Ordinary Glycolic Acid Exfoliating Toner

I have KP on my arms that I'm desperately trying to get rid of. So I've been using a KP scrub and moisturizing like crazy, but it still isn't enough. I've heard great things about this and I'm hoping it helps.

Bumble & Bumble BB Hairdresser's Invisible Oil

I've used this before and like it for detangling my hair and a heat protectant.

Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille Eau de Parfum Fragrance Travel Spray

 

I received this complimentary from Influenster for review. The smell is nice, if a little heavy on the tobacco note. You only need one spray and the scent lasts all day, which is great considering it costs $70 for only 0.3 oz of perfume! But, it's Tom Ford so of course it's going to be quite spendy.

Perricone MD No Makeup Lip Oil in Pink Grapefruit

I received this from BzzAgent for review. This feels so nice on the lips! It's hydrating and not sticky at all. This shade is basically my natural lip color, so if you want some color to your lips I'd suggest picking a much darker color than you would think you'd need.

Melt Cosmetics Deadly Night Shade Duo Cream Blushlight & Highlight

Not even going to lie, I bought this because it's Nightmare Before Christmas. I'm still on the fence about cream blush because I have trouble not getting too heavy handed with them and looking ridiculous.

Living Proof Mini Perfect Hair Day Healthy Hair Perfector

I haven't tried this yet, but I keep hearing amazing things about this brand. Because of that, I wanted to start trying out some of their products to see if I'd like them.

Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Look birthday set

This is one of this year's birthday gifts from Sephora. I want to try out some more Charlotte Tilbury products, so I figured getting some free samples is the best way to do so.

Lip Smacker x Hello Kitty Lip Balm in Cheerful Cherry

This year is Hello Kitty's 50th anniversary, so there are a ton of different brands currently partnering with HK and I want all of them, haha! A classic Lip Smacker lip balm is always a yes for me.

Pixi x Hello Kitty Lip Tone pH Reactive Tint

This is supposed to react to your lip's pH level and provide a shade of lip color unique to you. I have no idea if it will actually do that or not, but it's HK so I had to have it.

The Creme Shop x Hello Kitty Plush Spa Headband

I mean, come on! This is so dang cute how could I not buy it??

Impressions Vanity x Hello Kitty LED Compact Mirror

Again, I just had to have this. I love that it's iridescent and the light inside is very bright.

 

 

Peace Out Acne Healing Dots

This is one of this year's birthday gifts from Ulta. They had other options and I was going to pick something else, but I waited too long to order from their website and this was all that was left. I have a pack of these from this brand already, and I never noticed a difference in my acne when I used them.

Those are all the new products I've purchased/received! Which product is your favorite? I'm living for all the Hello Kitty collabs!

Thank you for stopping by, and I hope you have a great 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!
