Winter Empties & Review - 2024

 Hello, everyone! How was your weekend? I'm prepping for my baby shower in a couple weeks and getting everything ready for the new baby. It's crazy how fast the time is flying by!

Here's everything I was able to use up these last few months!

Neutrogena Hydro Boost Makeup Remover Wipes

These are fine for quick makeup removal.

Tony Moly I'm Red Wine Mask Sheet

I love these sheet masks! I repurchase these masks constantly.

Ole Henriksen Glow2OH Dark Spot Toner

This was a nice toner, but I didn't notice my dark spots clearing up at all.

Bath & Body Works Whipped Rose & Vanilla Ultimate Hydration Body Cream

This scent is very nice! Not overly vanilla scented and slightly floral.

 

Ouai Detox Shampoo

This was okay. I doubt I would ever purchase a full size bottle though.

Lancome Advanced Genefique

This sinks into the skin very quickly and kept my skin feeling soft and hydrated.

Drunk Elephant Ceremight AF Eye Balm

I wouldn't repurchase this. I didn't notice any change in my eye area, and this didn't make my skin feel soft or hydrated at all.

Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash

This was okay. I didn't feel like it helped with my acne at all though.

Christina Aguilera Inspire Perfume

 

I've had this for such a loooooong time! I'm glad I finally used it up. This was my oldest perfume in my collection, so I'm glad it's finally empty.

Soft Lips x Hello Kitty Lip Balm in Hot Cocoa

 

This didn't do anything for my dry lips. But I never expected it to. It smells nice at least.

It Cosmetics Confidence in Your Beauty Sleep Serum

This was nice! It sinks into the skin nicely and kept my skin feeling hydrated all night.

Bath & Body Works Ultimate Hydration Body Lotion in Vanilla Bean Noel

I wouldn't buy this scent again. It's overly sweet and keeps its scent for a long time.

Olaplex Hair Perfector

This made my hair feel so nice and soft! I was worried about all the people saying it made their hair fall out, but that wasn't my experience. I will definitely repurchase this.

Neutrogena Makeup Remover Wipes

Again, these are fine for a quick makeup removal, but they make my skin feel oily.

That's everything I was able to use up this time! Thank you for stopping by, and I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Beauty Haul

 Hey, everybody! How was your Thanksgiving? This past weekend was my first weekend off since I started my job back in August. When I was hired I was scheduled to work Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. My husband has the opposite schedule. He works Tuesday-Friday. I was finally able to switch my days, so now I work Wednesday-Friday! I'm so happy to finally be able to spend some quality time with my husband and the three of us together as a family (especially this time of year!), so that was the number 1 thing I was thankful for. I also had Thanksgiving off so we were able to spend the holiday together with our family.

Onto the good stuff! Here are all the new beauty products I've picked up recently.

Colorstreet Nail Polish Strips

One of my friends sells Colorstreet and she had an offer for "buy 3 get 4 free". When you order from the website they always offer B3G1, so in addition to that she send me another 3 from her stash. The first picture is my B3G1 order from the website (t-b Cran-tastic, Light the Night, Winter Bow-mance, and Ring It In). The second picture is another set that I bought along with the 3 extra free sets (t-b Wrap It Up, Sakura Festival - my faaaavorite!, Wine Down, and Good Impressions). The last picture is 3 more sets that I bought from my friend when I looked through her stash (t-b Boo Crew, Bats Amore, and Salute To You). Lol it really is an addiction!

Soap & Glory Clean On Me

 

I really like this body wash, so when I used up my last body wash I decided to go back to using this one.

Juvia's Place i-Scult, i-Shade Brow Gel in Medium Brown

This was sent to me for free from BzzAgent. I like this brow gel except that the shade is pretty light. I think this is more of a light brown. I always use medium brown brow products and this is much lighter than any other medium brown product that I've used. I also don't think it held my brows in place as well as other brow gels that I've used.

Softlips x Hello Kitty Lip Balm Holiday Set

I saw this at Target and couldn't resist it. I love Hello Kitty, and the scents sounded interesting.

Shu Uemura Wata Wave Dry Finishing Spray

This is another freebie from BzzAgent. I don't like it. I didn't notice any texture difference in my hair, and this left a sticky residue. This is a no for me.

 

 

ILNP in Salem

 

This was part of my anniversary present from my husband. I love the holographic nail polishes from this brand. This is a black base with green glitter that reflects purple. It's stunning!

 

 

That's everything for now!  Thanks for stopping by, and have a wonderful week!

Collective Beauty/Makeup Haul

Hello, everyone!  How has your week been so far?

Today I have a collective haul to share with you.  Here's all of the beauty products I picked up over the last couple of months.

Kiss 100 count oval nail set
I purchased this set (back in October) for my Halloween costume.  I painted some of the nails gold and used lash glue to adhere them to my skin to look like scales for my dragon costume.  Now I have around 90 left to figure out what to do with.

Spa Life Pore Clarifying sheet mask
I've never tried this brand before, but I was intrigued by an activated charcoal mask so I decided to give it a try.

 

Urban Dollkiss My Panda Synergy-Up Collagen sheet mask
I've never tried anything out from this brand either, but the packaging was too cute to pass up!

 

Lip Smacker x Disney Tsum Tsum Mickey Mouse lip balm (holiday edition)
I'll be the first to admit that I have a Disney Lip Smacker addiction.  Obviously, I "had" to have these.

 

Lip Smacker x Disney Tsum Tsum Minnie Mouse lip balm (holiday edition)

 

Dr. Teals Relax and Relief Pure Epsom Salt Soaking Solution
This is a repurchase item.  Whenever I have a pamper day I like to soak my feet with warm water and epsom salt.

 

Wet N Wild MegaGlo Highlighting Gold Bar in Holly Gold-head
 I've been wanting this for a long time but I haven't seen it in store until recently, so of course I had to snatch one up!

Softlips x Hello Kitty holiday lip balm set
I saw this at Target and of course I had to get it.

That's everything!  What are some items that you picked up that you're excited to try out?

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

 

Spring Drugstore Beauty Haul

Hello, everyone!  How has your week been?

I've recently picked up some new makeup products from the drugstore and I wanted to show them to you!

Softlips x Hello Kitty limited edition lip balm set (Tangerine, Pink Lemonade, and Strawberry)

Rimmel London The Only 1 Matte lipstick in 810 The Matte Factor

Lip Smacker x Disney Tsum Tsum limited edition Star Wars lip balms (R2-D2, Yoda, Darth Vader)

Aquaphor Lip Repair

 O'Keeffe's Lip Repair

So that's everything!  I have severely dry lips so I'm always on the look out for lip balm (if you couldn't tell by this haul...lol).  What are your favorite lip balms for dry lips?  I've never tried the O'Keeffe's balm before, but I'm hoping it helps my situation.

Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you have a good weekend!
