New Beauty Products - I know, I know..

 Hello, everyone! How was your weekend?

I have acquired some new beauty products. I know I recently said I didn't need to buy anything for a very long time, but I had some money left in my HSA account that I was going to lose if I didn't use it, so I ordered some skincare products with that. I also still receive items through BzzAgent and Influenster for review. The Kitsch products were actually in my stocking for Christmas, but for some reason I forgot to put them in my last beauty haul. Anyway, here's what's new for me:

Kitsch Nylon Hair Elastics

Kitsch Exfoliating Glove

 

To be fair, I don't have one of these... 

Kitsch Satin Scrunchie 5 Pack

Z-Sea Neck Cream

 

This and the next 6 products were bought with my HSA card. 

Neutrogena Body Clear Body Wash

Differin Gel

Coola Lip Lux Tinted Lip Balm

Coola Mineral Lip Trio

Foreo Kiwi Acitve Pore & Blackhead Mask

Revive Light Therapy Sonique Mini

Josie Maran Travel Size Whipped Argan Oil Body Butter in Bohemian Fig

 

This was free for review from Influenster. I don't like this scent. It's very earthy, like a straight up dirt smell. 

Murad Rapid Dark Spot Correcting Serum

 

This was also free from Influenster for review. I like the consistency and how quickly it sinks into the skin, but it has a soapy smell that I don't love. 

ELF Holy Hydration Face Cream, PLZ Clarify Facial Oil, and Stick it to Zits Pimple Patches

 

These three products were also sent to me for review from Influenster. The facial oil smells terrible! 

Dove Crushed Cherries & Chia Milk Body Scrub, Body Wash, & Beauty Bars

 

I purchased these items literally only because I decided one day that I want to smell like cherries. That's it. That's why I bought these. I have nothing to say for myself. 

Goody x Lee Ouchless Satin Scrunchies 5 Pack

 

This is another free product for review from Influenster. These are fine. They perform the same as any other satin scrunchie. 

 

 

Neutrogena Pink Grapefruit Cleansing Wipes

 

These wipes and the acne wash (below) I bought with my HSA card. 

 

Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash

 

Dove Palo Santo & Sage Antiperspirant & Deodorant

 

This was sent to me for free for review from Influenster. The scent is really nice, and it lasts all day. 

 

Well People Expressionist Curling Mascara

 

This is another free for review product sent to me from Influenster. It's okay. It does curl my lashes nicely, but it's a bit clumpy so I have to go in with my lash comb to separate my lashes. 

 

Herbal Essences Rose Hips Shampoo & Conditioner

 

Influenster sent me the shampoo to review, but I like having matching sets when it comes to shampoo and conditioner, so I purchased the conditioner. This scent is so nostalgic for me. I used to use this back in high school.

 

Onyx Pedi Please Quick Peel Foot Mask

 

Influenster sent this product to me for free for review. I don't feel like this does anything. I scrubbed with this and it didn't exfoliate any of the dead, dry skin off my feet. I wouldn't purchase this.

 

 

Soapbox Flexible Hold Hairspray

 

This was also free from Influenster for review. This is fine. It's a flexible hold, which is what I prefer, but this isn't going to keep your hair stay in place all day. 

 

Soap & Glory Heel Genius

 

I'm almost out of this and I LOVE this foot cream! 

 

Burt's Bees Rescue Lip Relief

 

I haven't tried this before, and I wanted to try it out. 

 

 

The Ordinary Glycolic Acid Exfoliating Toner

 

I used up the bottle I had, so I repurchased it. 

 

Ole Henriksen Pout Preserve Peptide Lip Treatment

 

This was on my wishlist and it was on sale, so I bought it at the same time. 

 

Tatcha The Longevity Memory Cream

 

This was free with purchase. 

 

Not Your Mother's Curl Talk Mousse

 

I haven't bought mousse in years, so I wanted to try to have one to try out again. 

 

De La Cruz Acne Treatment with Sulfur

 

I'm willing to try anything at this point. 

 

 

Aussie Ultra Wonder Heat Protectant and Detangler

 

This was also sent to me from Influenster for review. It smells great. It detangled my hair very nicely.

 

 

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

 

Beauty Haul

 Hello, everybody!  How was your weekend?  I'm exhausted!  I just finished two weeks of training for my new job, and I had my first days of work by myself Friday and yesterday.  I'm working at the local hospital in the Nutrition Services department, and my schedule is three 12 hour shifts each week.  I've never had to work 12's before, and it really is exhausting.  I do enjoy having four days a week off though.

Anyway!  Here are all the new products I'm trying out these days.

Ardell Clear Brush-On Eyelash Adhesive

My old eyelash glue completely dried out, so I finally picked up this lash glue to replace it.  I've never tried this lash glue, so hopefully it works well. 

Keys Soulcare Skin Transformation Cream & Be Luminous Exfoliator

These were sent to me from Influenster free for review.  I heard that Alicia Keys came out with a skincare line, but I haven't tried any of her products until now.  The moisturizer is nice, but I don't think it's any better than other face creams I've tried in the past.  I do like the elegant purple glass jar though.  The exfoliator surprised me a bit.  For some reason I wasn't expecting it to be in powder form.  It made my skin feel really smooth after using it though!  I would probably repurchase the exfoliator.

 

 

YSL Beauty The Slim Velvet Radical Matte Lipstick in Beige Instinct

This product was sent to me from BzzAgent for review.  The formula feels nice on my lips and it looks beautiful.  The packaging is nice, but I don't like that it's square.  It made applying the lipstick a bit difficult.  If they had made this in a normal bullet shape then it would be perfect.

 

Anastasia Beverly Hills Cream Bronzer in Sunkissed

This was also sent to me from Influenster free for review.  I don't typically use cream products, but I've been wanting to step away from all powder products now that I'm getting a little older.  I think cream products will sit on my skin better than powder products have been lately.  This shade is a little too yellow/orange for my liking, but it has a nice natural finish and it blended out really well.

 

Murad Daily Clarifying Peel

 

This was sent to me from BzzAgent for review.  I've been using it for a little while now, and I haven't noticed enough difference in my skin to consider repurchasing this.

 

 Aveda Nutri-plenish Leave In Conditioner

This was also sent to me from BzzAgent.  This is ok.  The scent isn't the best, and I haven't noticed any difference in my hair after using this.

Mugler Alien Goddess Eau De Parfum

This was sent to me from Influenster for review.  The design of the bottle is a little weird to me, but the scent is amazing.  It has a warm vanilla scent that I think is perfect for all seasons.

Neutrogena Makeup Remover Cleansing Wipes

 

I ran out.  I bought more.  I really don't have anything more to say about these.  lol

No. 7 Pure Retinol Eye Cream

 

This is another product to review from BzzAgent.  I haven't gotten around to trying it out yet, so hopefully it's good!

Dior Miss Dior Eau de Parfum

I received this complimentary from Influenster for review.  The bottle is cute, and it smells so nice!  It's just too bad that I'm not allowed to wear perfume at work because I would definitely wear this all the time.

That's everything for now!  Thanks for stopping by.  I hope you have a wonderful week!
