November 2021 Haul Part 2!

 

Well this year went by so quickly! I feel like it was just the beginning of the year a few days ago. Well, hopefully I make something better out of 2022!

I actually showed some self control this month and didn't go to crazy but, who knows with all the holiday sales. I tried cutting back but, honestly, that's no fun.

I got a few masks from Miss Spa and Yes to. I am excited to try them and they were on sale at the drugstore. I love a good buy one get one free deal. I have tried a few masks from these brands and I wouldn't mind trying them again.

I got some bath products from Sumbody. I used to use their organic all natural stuff a lot before I moved and I just recently re-discovered the brand. I got a few of their soaps, bath melts, and salt scrubs bon bons. I also got a few skin care items like their facial mist, their mud mask, in shower masks and aromatherapy balm.  I tried the aromatherapy roll on and it smells so relaxing and divine. I am hoping that their bath products smell this good too.

I am really excited to try the Lancome Renergie H.C.F Triple serum as not only does the bottle look cool but, this serum was a whopping $135 before taxes! I am hoping this futuristic bottle gives me skin from 20 years ago. While I was shopping I came across some bath salts and soap from Margot Elena. I used to have her subscriptions years ago and did like her stuff but, I wasn't using it fast enough and then after awhile I got tired of the same stuff over and over. I managed to finish my previous stockpile so, I might be interested in restarting that subscription depending on how crazy I go over the holidays.

Did you get anything exciting this month?

November 2021 Empties!

 

 

I can't believe November is almost over! Wow, it just feels like the days flew by. I finished a few things this month that I liked. 

I like the lip whip by Kari Gran. It leaves  my lips super soft and hydrated. It was such a treat to put on. I heard and have used a few of Herbivore stuff but, it was years ago. I recently got the Herbivore Pink Cloud Soft Moisture Cream and applied it during the night and woke up with super soft skin. The Glow Recipe Papaya Sorbet Enzyme Cleansing Balm was my first time using a cleansing balm and thought it was pretty cool. It removed most of my mascara and makeup and it was fun to use. I did have to follow up with an oil cleanser to get rid of the most annoying mascara traces.

I tried a new serum called Perricone MD Cold Plasma Plus+ and it was a whopping $149 for one ounce. It was creamy and absorbs quickly but, I am not sure I saw that much results that I am willing to fork over that much money again. I also liked the Graydon Putty Super Soothing Face Cream because it's really thick and cream. It left my skin super soft after applying it.  I tried this new hand cream called Serumkind A Precious Serum of The Royal Black Tulip and it smells amazing. It feels so luxurious and usually I use a cheap hand lotion that I have to constantly reapply. 

Here is everything I finished - 

Lip Whip by Kari Gran - Peppermint
Herbivore Pink Cloud Soft Moisture Cream
Glow Recipe Papaya Sorbet Enzyme Cleansing Balm
Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Cream
Perricone MD Cold Plasma Plus+

November 2021 Haul!

 

October just came and went right like a blur! I got a few things this month and I am surprised I didn't get carried away like I normally do every time. I did end up spending a lot of money on food and experiences though.

There is a few things I got that I am excited for. I like L'Occitane and sometimes, have a love and hate relationship with their stuff. I got a huge brick of soap and their rich body cream that I am looking forward to using during the colder months. 

I am trying to use more facial sheet mask because my face gets so dry and dull during the colder months. I got this reboot mask from Baby Face and it reminds me of those baby foot mask that removes all dead skin and leaves my foot sooo soft. I hope this mask leaves my face soft but, I can do without the insane peeling on my face. I really love Facetory's branded face mask and they redid the formulation for the Ace that Face mask. I loved the original so, I am excited to try the new one.

I got a sleeping mask and the water cream from Laneige that I am excited to try. I have tried a few samples from them and thought they were good. I own several of their lip mask. I like the bubble gum scent but, I think there are better lip masks out there. I recently discovered cleansing balm and I bought a new one from Yadah. This one will be my third one and I am excited to see how it fares against the Glow Recipe and the Farmacy one.

Did you get anything this month that you are excited to try?

November 2020 Haul Part 2!

 


 Wow, I can't believe it's November already!  I can hardly believe it. I felt like it was just Halloween a few days ago. 

I got a few more masks from Facetory to replenish my stock even though I haven't really been using them too often. It's been cold in my area and I didn't want something cold on my face. I bought a few more masks from Facetory's own brand line. I liked their masks so far and I am hoping these are good too.

I have used Kat Von D lip products and got a new dark red. I love NYX products and got two new dark purple colors in subversive socialite and temptress. I got a new "nude" lipstick from Nars and a "nude" Kylie liquid lipstick. I am on the fence with the Kylie product. I am not sure if I would consider her products prestige since it came out that her lip kits used the same formulations and ingredients as Colourpop.

Bath and Body Works released a new foaming luxury bath product. I love taking baths so, I am really excited to try it. I also got another Rituals body wash to replace the one I finished a few months ago. I got a new mud mask that I am excited to try. I am hoping this month I finish a few more things to justify my spending :D :D

Did you get anything new this month that you are excited to try?

November 2020 Empties!

 

 

 


Ahh, I can't believe the holiday season is among us! It just felt like a few weeks ago summer was beginning. I finished a few things this month but, nothing noteworthy enough to be excited over or to get again. Surprisingly, I didn't finish that many sheet masks either.

I tried this new fresh clean coconut and the cleanser was meh. The texture was unappealing. It looked like spoiled milk. However, it did remove most of my makeup including my mascara leaving minimal traces behind. I have ordered from Yves Rocher mostly because their free gifts. I do like their shower gels but, I wasn't a fan of their Lime scent. It reminded me a little too much of floor cleaner. I had bought the C.Booth Milk Bath and Shower Cleanser during a sale at Ulta and it has floral milky scent. I liked that a small amount of cleanser provides a generous amount of bubbles and foam.

I did try a new clay mask - I'm Beet Facial Clay Mask. It was a little messy since I had to mix the mask myself. Hopefully, next month I have more interesting empties!

 Here are things I finished -


Avette Fresh Clean Coconut Mild Foam Cleanser
Yves Rocher Jardins Du Monde
C.Booth Milk Bath and Shower Cleanser
Lollia Breathe Peony and White Lily Finest Perfumed Soap
The Medius Heart Eye Patch
Beautiful Nutrition Lemon Rinse
h20+ Beauty Aquadefense Refining Matcha Detox Mask
Chapstick Total Hydration
I'm Beet Facial Clay Mask
Hanalei Lychee Face Mask
Botanic Bouquet Dry Shampoo Scent Stick Rose
Sur.Medic+ Bright Glutathione Mask
Biobelle #Lightup Brighten Skin
Aromafloria Feet's Sake Spa Foot Scrub

November 2020 Haul!

 

 


 My first haul for November 2020! As usual, I got more skincare and lip products. Even though I am not using any lip products. 

I got two new hair product because my scalp usually gets dry and itchy. I am excited to try the Vitabrid scalp shampoo. I am hoping this is the year my scalp and it has menthol and biotin. I am excited about getting new soaps from L'Occitane. I have used the Verbena before but, I got their new limited edition Rose soap. I also got a detox soap from V76 that has mineral clay and oats to clear up skin and keep it nourished. I can't wait to use it because I get super itchy skin during the winter.

I got a new Erno Laszlo pore cleansing clay mask. My face has been breaking a lot more because wearing a mask daily. I got a few products from Facetory. I got a new Aloe Gel, a blueberry hand cream, a new face serum, and facial mist.  I am hoping to keep my skin clear and moisturize this winter instead of my normal dry and scaly skin.

Have you tried any of the products above? Let me know your thoughts.
