What's in my trash

Happy New Years to everyone and I hope everyone had a great and safe holiday season. As we enter the New Year companies always come out with new products. I’m the type that likes to use the life out of my products the best I can before they expire so I cleaned out my collection with products I used up or that just went bad. Keep on reading if you want to find out what products I used up and the ones that I am just going to toss.

Makeup Remover Wipes

First thing first I have gone through many packs of makeup wipes in the past few months since I like to use them to take off my first layer of makeup on my lazy days otherwise I will use my Sephora makeup towel and a makeup remover of some kind. On a daily it is normally any face cream/cleanser and makeup remover oil.

Pond’s in the Original Fresh scent (Blue Packaging)

These wipes take off all my makeup from my face and also my eyes in a very simple 1,2,3, I don’t have to be rough which is a great thing. It also leaves this cooling feeling on the skin after but also my skin isn’t dry once so ever which is great since I have combo skin this time of year. The scent isn’t over powering of a perfume which I find a lot of wipes having a strong scent and with my sensitive skin doesn’t work out so well.

Nu-Pore Makeup Remover Wipes (Blue and White Packing)

These wipes I found in Bed Bath and Beyond but also Harmons Face and Value Beauty Supply store sells them. These makeup remover wipes are compared to the Pond’s Wipes in the blue packing above and I can actually say they feel and smell and work just as well as the Pond’s ones. I also like the fact that they are way cheaper. For the price of Pond’s wipes I can get around 3 or 4 packs of Nu-Pore wipes since they retail for about $1.95 in Bed Bath and Beyond.

Simple Cleansing Facial Wipes (Light Green Packing)

These are the first time I try these and I fell in love with them. They are so gentle and refreshing which I find great. There also really isn’t a scent to them which I love. These also do not make my skin oily or dry which is great.

Blotting Sheets

So far for the past few months I have been using one type of blotting sheets; so in my trash I have 2 packs of the NYX Matta Blotting Paper in the black packing. These blotting sheets work great and they are very cheap since I tend to buy Boscia ones which can be type pricey when I go through a pack type fast but also the scent that I like only comes out during the holidays. It is the peppermint ones which of course I had to buy a couple until they come back out next year during the holiday season.

Eyebrows

NYX Tinted Brow Mascara (In the shade Brunette TBM03)

This is a great product to seal my brows once I have filled them in. It doesn’t matter if I use a powder or a pencil it doesn’t makeup them crunchy. I really do not like my eyebrows to be crunchy what so ever. The color is also just right because I find that brow gels/tinted mascaras can be on the orange side which my hair color doesn’t work at all.

ELF Eyebrow Kit (In the shade Medium)

I seemed to like this product for an all-natural brow look. The powder was a taupe shade and the gel was tinted dark brown and again it had no tint of orange but more of a taupe undertone so it went great with the powder.

Perfume

I tend to always carry a travel size or sample of a perfume since they are the perfect size to fit in a makeup bag whenever I need to freshen up.

Versace Bright Crystal

This scent is a Olfactive family which is a mix of flower, fruity and musk. The scents that are included in this perfume are Yuzu, Iced Accord, Pomegranate, Peony, Magnolia, Acajou, Lotus Flower, Musk and Vegetal Amber.

Giorgio Armani Acqua Di Gioia (Name means Water of Joy)

The scent is a mixture of cool mint, warm brown sugar and the zest of Italian lemon as it is described on Sephora’s website.

Elizabeth and James Nirvanna White

The scent is a mixture of delicate peony, chic muguet, and tender musk for a feminine scent with dark sophistication as described on Sephora’s website.

Primers

Cover Fx Primer (The primer with the orange band around the tube)

I really was not a fan of this primer at all. My sister gave it to me since she could not use it but to me the smell was way to strong of sun block but also I didn’t see it do much to my makeup . I did use most of it since it is a high end product and I wanted to get her money spent in Sephora worth it since we could not find the receipt to return it. There is probably 1/3 of the product left but it is starting to smell funky so I’m going to toss it.

Too Faced Lip Insurance

I loved using this lip primer before I wore liquid lipstick. I found that this primer helps for my lips not to be so dry since liquid lipstick can be very drying.

Evian Facial Spray

I use this spray to moisturize my face right before I put my primer on since I find that lotion feels to heavy on my face and I am the type of person that I want my makeup to feel light on the skin because I find the more you have on it can transfer, look cakey, and also clog pores.

BB Creams

Skin79 Super+ Beblesh Balm (The pink packaging)

I liked this BB Cream in the summer months because it wasn’t too heavy on the skin. It also gave great protection from the sun. I’m not too sure if it worked for the so called claims it says to have. It states to help with whitening the skin and help with wrinkles. I don’t really have issues with aged skin. If people have tired other types of BB Creams from skin79 please leave a comment down below.

Mascara

Korres Athens Mascara (In the shade Obsidian Black)

I found the mascara to lengthen my lashes. When I wore it sometimes I would be asked if I was wearing lashes which when I want to do a glam look I liked since I’m not the false lashes type of girl. I prefer to buy a mascara that can give me that look since I already have long looking lashes.

Concealer

Sephora Collection Smoothing & Brightening Concealer (In the shade 07 Moyen Medium)

This product worked wonders for me. I could compare it to make other high end cancelers that I have in my collection. To me Sephora makes some of the best concealers out there. This left my under eye bright but also it is great for highlighting. It also does not crease on me with the new tend of baking which I love since most tend to crease throughout the day. Sephora has come out with a gel concealer which I will pick up to see if it can be compared to this one if its better or not so stay tune but also Sephora has great products even if your someone who is wants to spend money on high end products but can’t really take the hit of spending $32 and etc on a concealer or any product for that matter you should check them out. Please leave a comment down below on the Sephora brand products that you have tired and have loved.

Blush

ELF HD Blush(In the shade Superstar #83232)

This is a great product but unfortunately since it is a cream product I didn’t get to use up this whole product before it dried out on me since all you need is very little of the product. It is a great baby pink shade and very pigmented. It is also at a great price so if you are someone looking for great drugstore cream blush I would recommend Elf HD Blushes.

Lip Products

Revlon Just Bitten (In the shade Flame/Flamme)

I have used up this product on one side pretty much. I wasn’t really a fan of the balm side since I didn’t really see it making a difference when I put the stain on. The lipstain is in an ink form since it is one of the forms of lipstains that was brought to the drugstore a while back. I have had this product for a while now and the stain part is just not as pigmented as it was when I first brought it so it’s pretty much done. Now the stain is a very light orange. When I first got the product it was a stain in the shade of red orange and now as the time has gone by it has turned into a straight orange shade.

L’oreal Endless Kissable Shine Wear Gloss Topcoat

There really much to this product since it was a great drugstore topcoat gloss in clear for any lipstick or to wear alone to get my lips shiney. I do not wear gloss like that so the product is just going to be tossed since it is starting to get a weird smell.

EOS Lip Balm (The scent is Sorbet if I’m not mistaken. It is in the light pink packaging)

I was not a big fan of the scent it was very overpowering so the product expired before I even finished using it. I’m still trying to find a fav scent in the ESO lipblams so far I have lighted the mint scent witch is in the light blue packaging. If you have any fav ESO lipblams leave them in the comments down below since it’s a great lipbalm to just toss in your purse and go.

Other Beauty Products

L.A. Colors Color Craze Nail Polish (In the color Purple. I have had this polish so long the nail rubbed off.)

It is a great affordable nail polish. It didn’t chip fast or anything and looked very pretty. It was a nice shade of purple not to light and not to dark but somewhere in the middle.

Lotion

I tend to always have a lotion on or in my desk at which job I am at. So I had ran out of lotion and decided to pick one up at the local $0.99 store since that was the closest store near me. I picked up this lotion by the company XtraCare. It was a cooling action oatmeal skin relief calming lotion since I type a lot I like something cooling but also not greasy feeling. For the price I paid for this lotion I was very surprised since it didn’t feel greasy or anything. It felt and compared to Aveeno lotion so if you’re in a pinch and see this lotion in your local $0.99 or beauty supply store I recommend you pick it up.

Biore Deep Pore Charcoal Cleaner

I love this cleaner to mix with others because it really does get the job done and deep cleans. I tend to mix it since it is strong it feels like its burning on the skin when I use it alone. I know that since I have been using it I have seen less break outs since I have sensitive acne prone skin.

Skintimate Moisturizing/Hydratant Shave Gel (In the scent Rasberry Rain)

It works good I don’t have a problem with it and since I have sensitive skin I have to watch what I use. I have never had any problems when I use any skintimate shaving cream. Currently I am using one the from the same brand just I different line and I prefer that one better than this one so I might not repurchase it.
