All my monthly trash on display for you to see. :P
1. L.A. Colors Dramatilash winged Volume Cat Eye: I really liked the tapered shape of these lashes and how they have these wispy clusters. I find that they're flattering on my eye shape and make my eyes look larger.
2. one+other Pro-Strength Nail Polish Remover Dip: My current dip is getting super gross, isn't working too well, and is falling apart inside (meaning the plastic) so it's time to replace it.
3. Grandma Agatha's (Agafia's) Recipe Hair Mask with Brewer's Yeast for Hair Growth: This mask literally smells like baking bread which is strange. That said, I did find that my hair grew well when I was using this, as it's usually slow to grow. Additionally, this mask left my hair feeling really soft, looking shiny, and overall easy to manage.
4. Love Beauty And Planet Coconut Water & Mimosa Flower volume and bounty shampoo: I don't have a photo of the bottle to show you because my mom poured this into a different bottle. That said, this shampoo smells nice but it leaves my hair feeling too squeaky clean to the point of it feeling dehydrated. This also made my hair prone to tangling. I wouldn't get it again.
5. Equate Sour Blue Raspberry Shea Sugar Scrub: I was so excited to try this scrub out because I generally like "blue raspberry" flavored things and thought oh, this could be fun in a body product and just like the rest of these scrubs, it's gritty and gives me an invigorating exfoliation. However, I just find that it smells too much like actual candy where it's too sweet for my liking and it has a tendency to leave a blue cast on my skin which I also don't appreciate.
6. Duo Brush-On Adhesive with Vitamins: My tube was getting all goopy and gunky so it was time to replace it.
7. COVERGIRL Lash Blast Fusion Mascara: I did get to liking this mascara more as the formula dried out a bit but overall the look it gave my lashes was still fairly soft and natural. Not quite the level of oomph I was looking for.
8. Physicians Formula Eye Booster Waterproof Ultra-Fine Liquid Eyeliner: We all know this is, hands down, my holy grail eyeliner. This particular one dried out almost entirely so it was time to get a new one.
9. CALA Lash Adhesive: As much as I tried to make this work, I am just not a black lash glue girly. It makes such a mess during application, because if I don't glue my lashes perfectly from the get-go or have a thick line of black eyeliner, it's obvious where I tried to glue the lashes on or where they lifted and didn't attach quite properly. Additionally, when I'd go to wash my makeup off at night, this would linger around my eyes into the next day. The pigment specifically, even if it appeared that I had washed it all off, stuck around and created the appearance of racoon eyes which I wasn't a fan of. I would pass it along because I only used it twice, but since it was used on used lashes I'd rather not risk anyone getting an eye infection and will just toss it out.
10. CALA Eye Adore Lashes in Wispy x2: These lashes are pretty and have a "natural" look wherein they give the eye oomph without being too dramatic or over-the-top. That said, they take quite a few wears to mold to the eye and have the tendency to want to pop off which can make them a pain to work with.
11. Joico Defy Damage Sleepover Overnight Nourishing Treatment: This is essentially an overnight leave-in conditioner. It smells absolutely delicious and left my hair feeling soft and silky while helping with shine and manageability.
12. primera Alpine Berry Water Cream: This moisturizer is really hydrating - it left my skin feeling very soft and supple. Especially with the very cold weather we've been having lately, having a nourishing face cream was particularly beneficial because this kept my skin sufficiently hydrated where it was comfortable, not dry or tight.
13. Dr Teal's Vitamin C Shea Sugar Scrub: This scrub just smells so good! It being a sugar scrub, it's very abrasive which I prefer, this feels invigorating and helps me wake up in the morning.
14. : As I mentioned in previous posts, I like to use these wipes to wipe down surfaces and to remove swatches if I take blog photos. They smell really nice and these large packs last quite a while.
15. Secret Powder Fresh 24 Hr Invisible Solid: I really like these deodorants because they keep me dry, smelling fresh, and don't irritate my armpit skin.
