Another month rolls around and somehow I have ended up with a massive amount of empties sitting around that I want to talk about! So much so that I’ve had no choice but to split this into two posts. You know, otherwise you would be reading this well into August. Today, I’ll be talking about all of the samples that I got through during June. And then some time soon, I’ll talk about everything else. So let’s get stuck into this!
GARNIER PURE CHARCOAL TISSUE MASK
I like the way this made my skin feel but there is something in it that irritates my eyes. The mask doesn’t even sit near my eye which is why this is so weird. The Garnier sheet masks are pretty inexpensive but I wouldn’t repurchase.
GARNIER MATCHA & KAOLIN MASK
I got three uses out of this which isn’t too bad. It was a nice, soothing mask. Would repurchase.
SKIN REPUBLIC DETOX CHARCOAL + TISSUE MASK
I’ve been a fan of the Skin Republic masks for a while now and this one is no exception. It sits comfortably on my face, doesn’t irritate anything and makes my skin feel nice and refreshed. I will usually grab a bunch of these while they are on special and keep them in my bathroom.
MIRENESSE POWER LIFT SUPERSTAR EYE SHEET MASK
This was a free gift with purchase from Adore Beauty. Unlike a lot of eye masks I have tried, these almost have an adhesive property to them which means they won’t move around while they are on your face. I really like that about them and I am definitely interested in getting more.
BOBBI BROWN EXTRA EYE REPAIR CREAM
I know that this is a cult favourite but sadly, I hated this. I thought it way too thick and it never felt like it sunk in properly.
MECCA COSMETICA TRANSFORMING CLEANSER
Cleansers are tricky for me. I have to use more than just a sachet to really get a feel for it. In any case, it was fine.
MECCA COSMETICA HYDRATING MOISTURISER
This however, I liked a lot. A little does go a long way with this moistuiser. I would consider purchasing the full size one day.
BIORE CHARCOAL NOSE STRIP
I know that these are bad for your skin but I love using these! I only use them sparingly though.
CLINIQUE MOISTURE SURGE 72 HR AUTO REPLENISHING HYDRATOR
The Moisture Surge is a long time favourite of mine and I’m always happy to get a sample of it. I’ve already gone through 3 full sized tubs of this so it’s definitely a repurchase for me.
ESTEE LAUDER ADVANCED NIGHT REPAIR
This is one of those products that I’ll happily use the sample of but will probably never buy because FREAKING EXPENSIVE!
DERMALOGICA SPECIAL CLEANSING GEL
This I actually liked and would consider buying the full size.
DERMALOGICA DAILY MICROFOLIANT
OH MY GODDESS, THIS STUFF IS MAGIC!!! My skin has never felt smoother when I used this and I will be buying the full size!
PHILOSOPHY PURITY MADE SIMPLE EXFOLIATING CLAY MASK
I won’t lie, I used this right at the beginning of June so I’m struggling to remember my thoughts about this. Pretty sure I liked it though.
HOURGLASS VEIL MINERAL PRIMER
Some day, I’ll be able to afford this primer on a regular basis. But for now, I will merely keep getting the sample.
SMASHBOX PHOTO FINISH FOUNDATION PRIMER
This is a good primer that I have no complaints about.
FRANK BODY ORIGINAL COFFEE SCRUB
I feel like I’m about to commit a cardinal sin of blogging. But I didn’t like this. I’m sorry! Please don’t yell at me! I just prefer something grittier!
HAIR RECIPE MOISTURE SHAMPOO AND TREATMENT
I tend to not be that picky with my shampoo or conditioner, but this stuff is so good! It made my hair feel smooth and lightweight and it also smells delicious! Will purchase the full size!
And this isn’t even the tip of the iceberg! Stay tuned for later this week for part two. And let me know below what samples you used up!
Cheers and Love
