All my monthly trash on display for you to see. :P
1. ProBeauty Essentials Glam Wispies in Belle of the Ball x2: These are really pretty, large, fluttery, wispy lashes. My only issue with them is that the bands are thin to the point of being flimsy so when I pick lash glue off them at the end of the day they're easy to break if I'm not being careful with them.
2. Kose softymo Washing Foam Ceramide: I feel like I spent all of last year trying out various types of these cleansers and have come to the conclusion that none of them are quite as hydrating as I personally prefer. I do find them gentle and they leave my skin feeling clean and soft; so if your skin is maybe just slightly oily to normal you might like these better than I did.
3. ColourPop Ripple Super Shock Shadow: I'm sad to let this go because it's such a beautiful shade of eyeshadow. That being said, it's starting to smell really off and I'd rather not risk getting an eye infection from it.
4. Bumble and bumble Bb thickening Go Big Treatment: If I'm being honest I know this is activated by blow drying and I mostly air dry my hair so I'm not really sure if this did anything outside of adding a bit of extra hydration.
5. Makeup Brushes: The following brushes are all fraying with the exclusion of the AOA studio brush, which is unfortunately just shedding severely and falling apart:
AOA studio F30
Crown Pro C510
Crown Pro C511
Crown Pro C528
Wet N' Wild Crease Brush
6. PURITO PLAINET SQUALANE OIL 100: I'm genuinely sad to have run out of this when my replenishment still has yet to arrive in the mail. I love squalane for my skin because it really reduces visible inflammation and makes the texture of my skin soft, smooth, and buttery.
7. Bobbi Brown Neutral Rose Luxe Lip Color: This has gotten to the point where it hurts my lips to try and apply it because it's gone so far down in the tube. I do melt down the extra left behind into a franken-lipstick but this is no longer usable as a standalone. I'm sad because this was such a perfect color that looked good with any look that I did. I also really loved that the formula is hydrating and pigmented.
8. Duo Quick-Set Striplash Adhesive: I like that this is a slightly faster-setting glue but I wish it came with a brush like the rest of the brush-on line because I find the applicator on this flimsy. It broke off entirely when I was cleaning the glue container.
9. COVERGIRL CLUMP CRUSHER Mascara: Honestly I found this mascara to be just ok. It's a good mascara if you're looking for a very subtle look with separated lashes. I personally like for a mascara to give me lots of volume, length, and separation and this just wasn't as dramatic as I prefer.
10. Physicians Formula Eye Booster Waterproof Ultra-Fine Liquid Eyeliner: This is probably my favorite eyeliner of all time, I just purchase it over and over again. This one is still going strong but for the safety of my eye health I replace it every 3 months.
11. Color Club Nail Polish in Angel Kiss: Unfortunately this nail polish is at its tail end and I can't get it out of the bottle in a way where it applies to my nails smoothly.
12. Biore UV Aqua Rich Water Essence SPF 50+ PA++++: I genuinely love this sunscreen - it has a beautiful hydrating serum consistency to it that's lightweight yet provides my dry skin with enough moisture where I can use this on its own without needing an additional moisturizer during the day.
13. Equate Tropical Mango Shea Sugar Scrub: I love this scrub, it's got a good price point, smells delicious, and is abrasive enough to make me feel thoroughly exfoliated and rejuvenated.
14. Clinique Rosy Glow Turnaround Daytime Revitalizing Moisturizer: Since I use the SPF mentioned above as my daytime moisturizer, I was using this at night despite its name. This was a nice gel-cream that felt hydrating yet refreshing. That being said, the glow on it was pretty and while this might've doubled as a primer I felt that it would be too much on top of the SPF. I did like this a lot and wish they would've just included SPF in this product because a lightweight glowy moisturizer with SPF that doubles as primer is definitely up my alley.
15. Fourth Ray Beauty So Radiant brightening eye cream: Another glowy product - so I really liked the brightening effect of this eye cream but I wish that it were pink instead of gold as I feel pink has a better brightening effect on my skin. I think they should have both a pink and a gold one to suit different skin-tones. Additionally, this is not hydrating enough for my personal liking.
16. now essential oils in lemon: I use this as a diffuser oil and it smells absolutely delicious, like a fresh lemon.
18. Dove summer care grapefruit & lemon balm body wash: This body wash smells delicious but I kept finding myself wishing that it were in a creamy, rather than in a gelatinous base so that it was more hydrating.
19. Yankee Candle Home Inspiration Sweet Violet & Basil: I'm sad to be done with this candle because it smells delicious. It did last me quite a long time which is nice.
20. COSRX Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence: Another item that I am sad to have run out of because this just makes my skin so soft, hydrated, and silky. I did buy a replenishment so I don't have to go without.
21. it Cosmetics Confidence in a Cleanser: Honestly this isn't a bad cleanser, and I even tried it on my eyes wherein it removed mostly everything except my waterproof eyeliner without stinging my eyes in any way. That being said, I personally prefer Korean and Japanese market cleansers because they're very rich, creamy, and hydrating while producing a nice foam and are also at a much more approachable price point.
22. berkley jensen Green Tea & Cucumber baby wipes: I like these baby wipes for wiping down my makeup and other surfaces, they smell really nice and are relatively gentle on my items.
Disclaimer: I purchased all of the above with the exception of the Bumble and bumble and Clinique products which were provided for review. The Yankee and it Cosmetics items were given to me as gifts.
