New Beauty Products

 Hello, everyone! How was your weekend? Who's ready for Halloween?! I sure am! It's my favorite holiday. My oldest is so excited to wear his costume. He's going as "Doodle-Bob" from SpongeBob. He is so silly!

Here are all the new products that I've either received or purchased recently that I'm excited to try out. 

 Olay Super Serum Body Cream

This was free for review from Influenster. It's pretty thick and it makes my skin feel so soft and hydrated.

First Aid Beauty Pure Skin Face Cleanser

This was on sale at Sephora for half off! I love this cleanser, so of course I picked one up.  

Native Body Wash in Cucumber & Mint

This was also free from Influenster for review. It smells so fresh and clean. It seems to cleanse pretty well too.

The Ordinary Exfoliating Toner

 

I used up my last bottle, so I had to purchase another. For under $9.00, it's something I'll probably continue to repurchase. 

Valentino Spike Valentino Buttery Matte Lipstick in Nude Poeme

 

This was also free for review from Influenster. The formula isn't super drying on the lips which matte lipsticks can tend to be. The packaging is pretty heavy and sturdy. The lipstick component itself pops out and is replaceable.

Anastasia Beverly Hills Glow Seeker Highlighter in Sun Idol

 

This was also on sale at Sephora. It was on my wishlist for a while, so when I saw it on sale I had to snag it. 

Layhomo Shea Butter Body Lotion

This product and the following two items were in a little gift bag that my husband received from work. 

Peauamie Hyaluronic Acid Eye Mask

Chap-Ice Citrus Orange Lip Balm

That's everything for now! Thanks for stopping by. Have a great week!

 

New Beauty Haul!

 Hello, everybody! How was your weekend? Can you believe it's already the end of July?!

I really need to cut back on my beauty purchases. I have so much stuff that I need to use up before I buy any more products. I think it's time to go through all of my products and create a "use it up" bin. Anyway, here's all the new products I've received/bought recently. T.T To be fair, most of these were free. So there's my excuse this time.

Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Body Wash

This was free from Influenster. I like that it's lightly scented since I use a lot of other scented products. This lathers up nicely and my skin feels clean after I use it. 

Sun Bum Sunscreen SPF 30 Lip Balm in Kiwi

 

I'm really trying to take better care of my lips. I never thought to use SPF on them until just a couple years ago. This is fine. 

Lip Smacker Lip Balm in Pink Lemonade

 

This was given to me. It's so nostalgic! Lip Smacker was my favorite brand of lip balm when I was in school. 

 

Summer Friday Self-Care Celebration Birthday Gift

 

My birthday was in June, and this was one of the options for Sephora's free birthday gift. 

 

Laura Mercier Lunar New Year Translucent Loose Setting Powder

 

Do I need this? No. Did I buy it anyway because it's a red lunar new year edition and it was on sale? Absolutely yes. 

 

Fenty Beauty Eaze Drop Blurring Skin Tint

 

This was also free from Influenster for review. I really like this skin tint! It's a perfect shade match and it looks so nice on my skin. 

 

Lip Smacker x Hello Kitty 10 Piece Lip Balm Party Pack

 

I picked this up from Ulta. I know, I know. I don't need anymore lip balms, but I can't resist when it comes to Hello Kitty products. 

 

Lip Smacker x Hello Kitty Peach Gummy

 

This was also from Ulta. It's very bulky, but it's cute. 

 

Olaplex No. 3 & No. 7 Duo Kit Birthday Gift

 

This was the birthday gift from Ulta this year. 

 

It's A 10 Miracle Leave In Product

 

I love this leave in treatment. It smells nice too. 

 

Philosophy Hope in a Jar

 

This was another free product to review from Influenster. 

 

Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Body Lotion

 

I really like this, as you know. I repurchase it constantly. 

 

Kitsch x Hello Kitty King Size Satin Pillowcases

 

I had $50 worth of reward points to use at Ulta, so I ordered these two pillowcases (both on sale - one was half off for $13 and the other was only $6.50) and the serum under these. 

 

Peach & Lily Super Oasis Concentrated Serum

 

I've never tried anything from this brand before, but I've heard great things about it. I'm excited to see how it works for me. 

 

 

Armani Beauty Skin Tint in L1

 

This was another free gift for review from Influenster. I like this skin tint, but the shade is a tiny bit too dark for me. That's on me though. It can be difficult choosing a shade online. I thought I picked the one closest to my skin tone. 

 

 

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

 

 

New Beauty Haul

 Hello, everyone! How was your weekend?

I haven't purchased too much lately as I'm mostly trying to use up products instead of collecting them. However, sometimes I run out of things or find something interesting that I want to try. So here are the few new products I picked up recently.

Lubriderm Advanced Therapy Lotion

I've decided that I want to step away from scented body lotions, at least for a while. I use a ton of scented products in my day to day life (scented soaps, detergent, hair products, perfume, etc.) that I really don't feel the need to add to the scents with my body lotion. Long story short, I bought this lotion instead of something heavily scented.

Vertex Eyeliner Stencil

 

I rarely apply eyeliner these days, and as a result I'm not very good at doing it anymore. Haha! I want to try out this stencil and see if it really helps me out.

Maybelline Dream BB Fresh Skin Hydrating Beauty Balm

 

I am STILL on a mission to find my holy grail foundation! I haven't tried this before, so here's hoping it's good.

La Roche-Posay Hydrating Gentle Cleanser

 

I've heard a lot of great things about this brand, so I decided to branch out and give it a try. I was in need of a new cleanser, so this was an obvious choice for me.

 

La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Balm B5

 

I'm not going to lie, TikTok made me buy this. I'm interested to see if it lives up to the hype.

 

 

That's everything new for me! Have you tried any of these products?

Thank you for stopping by. I hope you have an amazing week!

 

New Very Small Beauty Haul

 Hi, everyone! How was your weekend?

Here's everything new I picked up/received recently.

The Hair Edit Sleek Chignon Pin

This was sent to me from BzzAgent. It's very sturdy and doesn't bend very easily so it won't break. It's super cute and elevates the hair style.

Lancome Tint Idole Liquid Eye-Blusher in Hot Lava

 

This was also sent to me from BzzAgent. It's a beautiful, neutral shade. It is shimmery, but it's very wearable. I didn't notice much creasing, but I always use an eye primer before applying any eye shadow.

That's everything this time! Thank you for stopping by! I hope you have a fantastic week!

New Beauty Haul

 Hello, everyone! How was your weekend?

We went to Halloweentown in St. Helens, OR for the first time! I've been wanting to go for many years since we only live an hour and a half away, but I would always forget until the last weekend and we wouldn't have time to get up there and back. It's a cute little town and such a fun event for anyone who loves Halloween or the Halloweentown movies.

Now without further ado, here are the new products I picked up or received recently.

Philosophy Amazing Grace Twist Trio Gift Set

I received this from Influenster for review. I really like the scents in this set. I think it's a bit expensive for how small the bottles are, but all three scents are wonderful.

Estee Lauder Futurist Skin Tint Serum

This was also sent to me from Influenster for review. I really want to love this, but I've tried all different kinds of primers and even no primer with this foundation and it just doesn't look great on my skin. Maybe it's just my skin type. I'm acne prone with some dry spots. The shade match is perfect though and I like the thin consistency.

Wet N Wild x Marilyn Monroe Icon Highlighter in Cool Champagne

I just happened to randomly see this in the Halloween section at the grocery store. I'm very much out of the loop when it comes to new beauty launches, so I had no idea this collection even existed! I'm so glad I was able to find a shade that will work for my skin tone though.

 

I haven't had much time or energy lately to browse for new makeup, so that's everything new for now! Have you picked up any of these products? What are your thoughts on them?

Thank you for stopping by, and I hope you have a ~spooky~ Halloween!
