Alot of these are either faves or repurchases already!! ☺️
1. Simple Micellar Water – My favorite makeup remover by far and one that I have repeatedly bought for years and years. Love how gentle it is, but how effective it is as well. I wear ALOT of makeup, but this always gets it off so clean and efficiently before I wash my face. I’ll always repurchase and recommend so no surprise this is in here. WRP
2. INNbeauty Project Lip oil in Mystery Glaze – Bah! I feel kind of silly because I have another of this and could have totally done a side by side, but…I forgot lol. I love this stuff, it’s super nourishing, but gives a really beautiful high shine finish and smells delicious. Not sticky whatsoever, maybe a tad thick, but I find that helps to moisturize the lips more so. I have many different scents and shades. This is by far my favorite lip product in general. This one gives a light pH changing pink tint and has a slightly citrusy fruity smell. WRP
3. By / Rosie Jane Perfume Oil in Rosie –
The scent of this specifically is so wonderful. I feel like the sprays from Rosie Jane don’t last really, but the oils project so well and this scent in particular is so comforting and always appropriate. It has a very light musky skin scent with a tiny hint of vanilla and rose. It smells like a hug from someone you love. Really beautiful scent overall and sad I used it all up…W(probably)RP.
4. Elf Power Grip primer –
Ok, I get it. I wanted to find some sort of flaw with this, but then voila! I fell in love with how hydrating it is, how it helps with the longevity of my makeup, and the overall effect on the skin. Sure, it is sticky, but man once you get that foundation down on top you’re locked in!! I’ve even done a comparison between this and the Milk hydrogrip primer that it is intending to dupe and the Elf wins by far. I’m sure this doesn’t work well with every foundation (have not tried it with my powder foundation for example), but I really did like this as someone who has dry sensitive acne prone skin who tends to wear more hydrating to satin finishes in liquid foundation/bb cream with medium to full coverage. Used it up and immediately bought a new one the same day. WRP
5. Etude Soon Jung 2x Barrier Intensive Cream – This is my second tube of this. The first tube I loved it at first and then by the time I finished it I just felt so-so. I think I liked the lightweight consistency more so during the beginning to mid summer for how hot the weather was, but now that we are in autumn creeping into winter, this just doesn’t provide enough hydration. I was interested in this for it’s barrier repair and sensitivity aspect, I heard it was good for acne prone skin and I liked that it didn’t have any fragrance and the ingredient list seemed straightforward. Midway through my second tube of it I realized that this breaks me out. I think it might be the Shea butter. It seemed like everytime I used this the acne I already had would flare up or I would breakout even more. Agh! Oh well…I ended up using the rest of it on my hands (which worked surprisingly well!) as the breakouts became too painful to continue using it on my face. I think I have learned my lesson. I have not tried the new formula in the updated packaging and don’t really plan to, but I would be interested to see how they’re different. WNRP
