Been collecting these since the beginning of the year! Dropped off to a Sephora yesterday in exchange for 100 points towards the new beauty insider challenge. All products listed below.
Skincare empties:
– The Ordinary Rosehip Seed Oil: my holy grail. I’ve finished and repurchased this countless times over the last 10 years.
– Mario Badescu Glycolic Foaming Cleanser: this was a repurchase but I won’t repurchase again as I started to get irritated by the stinging when it got too close to my eyes
– 2x Elf Holy Hydration Cleansing Balms: these are quite good! They don’t leave a greasy residue on my face and they’re a good price. I’m currently working on a naturium cleansing balm which I don’t like as much. Although I haven’t repurchased since panning these, I probably would in the future. Still exploring cleansing balms/oils.
– Mario Badescu Drying Lotion: used for many years but would not repurchase since I’ve shifted to pimple patches.
– Sunday Riley Good Genes (trial size): I loooove this. I also redeemed a point perk at Sephora a couple months ago for another trial size. Haven’t splurged on a full size yet because the price is insane. Dupe recommendations appreciated!
– Tatcha Rice Wash (trial size): this was okay! Not crazy about it. Would not repurchase.
– Glow Recipe Dew Drops: didn’t feel like these did much for my skin. Would not repurchase.
– Inkey List Oat Cleansing Balm (mini): hated this. So hard to squeeze out of the tube and separated like crazy. Would not repurchase and would not recommend.
– Laneige Sleeping Mask in Peppermint (mini): love, of course. I liked having a small size of a fall/winter scent as my full size sleeping mask is in the pink lemonade scent. It was nice to have something more seasonally appropriate during the colder months.
– Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cream SPF 30: I like this! It’s a little thick for me personally but I’m finding it helps with occasional dryness on my cheeks. Also really like the added SPF!
– Innisfree Green Tea Amino Acid Cleanser: this was a repurchase and I am already working on my next bottle. My husband uses this as well. I love to use it as my second cleanse in the shower. So foamy!
Body Care Empties:
– SDJ Bum Bum Body Scrub (trial size): I really enjoyed this, but would not repurchase as I’ve been leaning more towards chemical exfoliants lately above physical exfoliants.
– SDJ Brazilian Bum Bum Cream (trial size): another love. The scent is so good! Repurchased the Costco dupe of this, which I am enjoying!
– Josie Maran Body Butter in Vanilla Vibezzzz (travel size): although I heard a couple people online complain that this smelled sour, I really liked the smell and didn’t pick up on anything sour! I thought it smelled just like the photo; an ice cream cone melting down your arm on a hot day. So yummy. I’d like to repurchase but the price is a little high for my preference in body care.
– SDJ Bum Bum Body Firmeza Oil (trial size): again, I love the scent on these. Would not repurchase this particular item though as I am simply not a body oil girly.
Makeup Empties:
– Saie Slip Tint Tinted Moisturizer in shade 2: a bit to heavy feeling and greasy looking on the skin for me. I have normal skin leaning towards oily, and found myself having to blot/repowder midway through the day when wearing this. Would not repurchase.
– Saie Super Skin Tint in shade 1: liked but did not love! I enjoyed the coverage level but I’d prefer something with a more natural finish. Would not repurchase.
– The Ordinary High Coverage Foundation: Decluttering as I have not touched in more than a year and was not finding myself reaching for it. Probably had 1/8 of the bottle left. Would not repurchase (I think it’s discontinued anyway, actually)
Hair care empties:
– Moroccan Oil Dark Tones Dry Shampoo: Loved this very much! Smelled so good and kept my oils gone for days. I did not repurchase this time but I will do once my current dry shampoo is used up.
– Amika Flash Instant Shine Mask: I liked this and loved the smell, but my hairstylist recently gave me an Oi shine mask which is 1000x better. Would not repurchase.
