This month was just crazy for me! I finished up my dream internship, packed up my apartment, moved back home, and went on an amazing week long vacation with my boyfriend. I finished up a whole lot of minis, and had to leave some *almost* finished products behind. As much as I love my products...packing up a conditioner with only one or two uses left to transport across Ontario just isn't worth the trouble.
I am still busy unpacking and getting ready for school, so instead of reviewing every single product I used this month I will just give you the "Sparks Notes" version.
Hair Care
Re-Purchase:
Heathy Sexy Hair Soy Beach Spray - I already bought this in full size. I love spraying it through my hair after I shower for a quick, cute summery look.
Marc Anthony Conditioner - This is my conditioner. No question, I have been using it for months! I love how it takes care of my hair, and keeps it shiny and healthy. I have noticed so many improvements since I started using this product!
Living Proof Restore Treatment - Wow. I was blown away with how much I love this conditioner. I really enjoyed using it twice in one week to help nurture my dry strands after enjoying a dip in a (chlorine) pool. I was delighted to receive two more of these for free from my most recent Ulta purchase.
No Re-Purchase:
Pantene Shampoos and Conditioners - With samples this size its hard to notice any real benefits. However I didn't find these were anything special. They did the job but I wouldn't go out of my way to buy them.
Keratin Oil Deep Conditioner - Despite using this frequently I found no noticeable improvements in the health and shine of my hair.
Macadamia Oil Deep Conditioner - Don't get me wrong...I like this product. But I just discovered their coconut version...and I LOVE it.
Re-Purchase:
The Face Shop Honey Mask - I love a little luxury in my life. And for $2? Yes please. Love how soft it leaves my skin.
Bioderma Face Water - Simply the best way to remove makeup. Gentle but effective.
Lancome Moistuizer - Don't mess with a good thing. It keeps my skin healthy and happy.
Julep Bare Face Oil - I love using this to remove my make-up before an evening shower.
Ole Henriksen Face Peel- Wow.
Volcanic Clay Nose Strips- These things really take the gunk out of your pores!
No Re-Purchase:
Balea Face Wipes - These make me tear up and leave my skin red and blotchy :(
Other random small things - Not notable.
Make-up
Re-Purchase:
Hourglass Veil Primer - This product makes my skin velvety soft, but without making it feel heavy.
Dior Nudeskin Foundation 010 - Simple. When you find your perfect foundation colour you stick with it. I use this product daily.
Stila Kitten Eyeshadow - Whats not to love about a pearl eyeshadow that is universally flattering and can be used as a highlighter incase of emergancy?
Smashbox BB Cream "Fair" - This BB cream is perfect for casual days.
No Re-Purchase:
Pür Big Look Mascara - Literally impossible to remove. I had to use 3 different makeup removers before I gave up.
Re-Purchase:
Almande Oil - This smells soooosososososos yummy and keeps my legs soft after I shave.
Lush Products - Can't wait to pick these cuties up later this fall (Lush is expensive!)
No Re-Purchase:
Everything else - Eh?
Samples
Purchase:
Glamglow Thirsty Mud - I got this as a gift from my boyfriend. I know-- I'm a lucky girl. Smells like coconut and leaves me super hydrated.
Urban Decay Sin Eyeprimer - Can be used as a simple all over champagne eyeshadow or as a base for shimmery eyeshadow.
La Petite Robe Noire EDP - Also a gift from my boyfriend. It smells so...sexy? Musky? Mysterious? Flawless.
Total Empties - 47
All in.
Sorry my posts have been on and off. My new goal is 2 per week until exam season and then I will reevaluate. <3
