All my monthly trash on display for you to see. :P
1. ProBeauty Essentials Wispies Lashes x2: I honestly feel like these lashes are a bit frustrating to work with because they're so thin and have such thin bands that rather than being easy to apply, they're outright flimsy and bend funny. Due to the way they bend and are stubborn about gluing to the inner corner in a way that flows with my eye shape nicely, I feel like they make my eyes look droopy.
2
. equate Almond & Shea Shea Sugar Scrub: I love how gritty this scrub is and how delicious it smells. This has an almond cookie scent that isn't overly sweet or heavily amaretto-ish either. It leaves my skin feeling very soft and smooth and is great for shave prep.
3.
ORLY Nail Lacquer in Crawford's Wine: I am so sad to be parting ways with this nail polish! It is a gorgeous metallic wine red and I just loved wearing it. But that said, unfortunately, the formula has become thick and goopy where I feel like it's best to part ways.
4. L'Oreal Paris Excellence Creme Caring Deep Conditioner: I honestly wish they'd sell this separate from the hair color because it is deeply conditioning as its name implies and makes my hair, even if it's not color treated (it's currently not, my mom gave this to me), feel very silky and manageable.
5.Cococare 100% Natural Peppermint Oil: This time of year I use this oil as a deterrent for critters getting into my room and scaring me in the middle of the night. Unfortunately it doesn't do anything for centipedes but it seems fairly effective otherwise.
6.
Bath & Body Works Raspberry Tangerine Anti-Bacterial Hand Gel: This is such a yummy scented hand sanitizer! It smells mostly of raspberry jam with a very slight citrusy hint to it.
7.
Compliment Lychee and Peach Face Mask: I found that this mask worked well in the sense that it left my skin feeling soft and deeply cleansed after I used it. That said, this particular one made the skin around my nose tingle in an uncomfortable way so I probably won't be getting it again.
8.
wet n wild photo focus Dewy Foundation in Rose Ivory: Over time this has become something of a holy grail foundation for me because it provides the right level of coverage where it's medium and buildable, it stays put well throughout the day, and it just has my skin looking really perfected. My only issue is that it tends to oxidize a bit so I don't really have a perfect shade match.
9. Kirk's Since 1839 100% Premium Coconut Oil Castile Soap in Soothing Aloe Vera: I purchased this for washing my brushes since the Dr. Bronner's wasn't available at the time and it did a good job of getting my brushes clean. I did find it to be fairly non-drying to my skin too, I find that the Dr. Bronner's soap can be a bit harsh on my skin right after I've washed my brushes.
10. Shiseido Prepare Dermaplaning Razor: I like to use these once weekly to really get any strays on my face due to my PCOS. It's about time to replace this razor as it's getting a bit dull.
11. IVON Cuticle Trimmer: I feel like these do a good job of removing excess dead tissue along the sides of my nails and around the cuticle area. That said I try to be careful not to nip at the eponychium because that can be quite painful and cause nail damage.
12. Kose softymo Deep Cleansing Oil: I feel like this does a fantastic job of removing my makeup and leaving my skin feeling soft and conditioned afterwards. It is a great first step in a double cleansing routine. That said, it can leave residue and not fully remove eyeliner so I also like going in with a Makeup Eraser to get any excess off due to the fact that I typically wear quite heavy makeup.
13. Flower Knows Powder Puff: I have to admit that I'm a little bit disappointed in this puff because the top of it ripped during the first week of use. I did manage to get three months of use out of it. I like to wash these puffs weekly and replace them right about every three months. This was otherwise a nice puff and was easy to use. I like the finger strap that it has on the back because that makes it easier to hold when using it.
14. wet n wild Loose Setting Powder: This is one of my favorite setting powders because it really helps keep makeup in place but it keeps your skin feeling like real, velvety skin instead of feeling powdery. It doesn't look cakey or heavy on the skin either and doesn't emphasize any dry patches.
15. fino Premium Touch Hair Mask: This mask made my hair feel really nourished and silky. It smells really delicious as well - in fact I really liked its scent and I like that the scent lingers in the hair afterward.
