empties 7

this is huge because life gets away from me. you may need a snack :)

this is very skincare heavy but nothing is in order, so we'll just go for it.



bbw coconut lime verbana spray-i liked the smell, i kept it in my car incase.
ban deodorant and manic panic hot hot pink-this is a good deodorant since it doesn't leave white marks. hot hot pink is my top half of my hair color, the bottom is black. already bought both again

nyx microbrow-i bought blonde but it was too warm, so i'll try taupe next. tarte light camera lashes was a nice mascara, i think i have another one. too faced better than sex was a great mascara, i have the full size. wnw glitter creme face thing-i didn't like this because it was slick but the glitter was pokey. it's also not meant for eyes, so i have no idea how i would use this.

temptations cat treats-my cats love them.

nail clippers-these are gross and need to go.

propolis mask-this was nice to use.

gel masks (i forgot the brands)-these were nice. i used the blue one before bed and the other was nice to use.
maybelline fit me powder and loreal true match powder-i have the fit me again. i like both though. the loreal one is heavier though.

tree hut hawaiian kukui sugar scrub-i liked the scent and it worked.

lava clay mask-i liked this and it didn't smell weird. i would get it again.

fc jelly man soap-this was a gel soap that lasted forever. i liked the scent but it didn't lather enough for me.

tree hut cherry blossom sugar scrub-i liked this one and would get again.

equate coconut milk and jasmine wash-this was nice but it didn't hydrate my skin enough.

sephora pearl eye mask-these are nice before bed to rest me eyes.

rose mask and lime mask-i liked these both. the rose didn't smell too strong and the lime smelled nice.

lace eye patch-these were pretty and did rest my eyes.

avocado and acai berry masks-i liked both of these. i forgot i used an acai berry mask before.

olay gentle clean clothes-these were ok but didn't take off that much makeup. i wouldn't get again.

garnier micellar water-i use this in the morning to clean my face. i have another one.

fc nemo fortune cookie soap-i really liked the scent on this and it did lather just enough. the scent didn't last on my skin though.

caress adore forever wash-i liked the scent of this and these do foam wonderfully. i have the red one now.

strawberry mask-this one was nice to use.

real techniques sponges and ecotools sponge-the real techniques are good and would get again. i'm using the ulta ones now. the ecotools i used for clay masks after they were dry. i have the white one now.

tree hut almond and honey scrub-i really liked this scent and would get again.

wine yeast mask-i liked this one.

tony moly broccoli mask and chamomile mask-i liked both of these. no weird smells.

vo5 kiwi shampoo and suave moroccan conditioner-i liked both of these. i rebought the conditioner.

nivea in shower lotion-this was nice but it didn't keep my skin hydrated. i'll try another one soon.

equate makeup remover wipes-i liked these and it did take off most of my makeup.

tangerine mask and foot mask-i liked both of these.

mask maven sept 2016 my final one :(

this is my final one for a while since i had to cancel it (i am so resubscribing when i can). it's modern maskinista, which are technology advanced masks. i don't know why the masks pics are sideways, the phone's weird.




it also came with a 30 day mask planner, which also had tips on it. i'll save these masks and start in oct.


 wellage injection mask-i saw grav3yardgirl use this and it looked very cool. can't wait to try.

 nohj black intracell mask-this is a bubbling sheet mask, which sounds great to use.

 nohj calming intracell sleeping mask-it's a coffee and lavender mask, which i'm a fan of lavender but not coffee. this should be interesting to try.

 esfolio snail mask-i love snail masks so i'm happy to get another one.

 esfolio pearl mask-i like pearl mask for brightness when my skin gets dull.

 saference f+c rx firming mask-this is good for anti-aging, which is good to start now.

 ladykin acai berry lifting ice cold mask-i don't know if i've tried an acai berry mask before, so this should be interesting.

 annies way HA silk mask-these are good for hydrating my dry skin.

annies way tea tree mask-i have been having some slight breakouts, so this should help with those.

i really like this months bag because it has a lot of different masks and some interesting ones to try. i'm sad this is my last one, but i'm glad it was so awesome. :)

current favs aug 2016

|BEAUTY|
freeman apple cider vinegar mask-i use this mostly in the shower as a cleanser or before i do a mask. it has a scrub feel so it exfoliates and it smells like green apples.

garnier skin active eye cream-my under eyes have been dry lately because i'm sweating more (gross, it's summer). this does give it moisture until i wash my face at night.


|NON BEAUTY|
old spice wolfthorn deo-i love the smell of this. i don't care if it's for guys, i wear it. it smells like citrus, more like lime. it makes you feel like a presidentlord.



|FAIL|
not really a fail but school started. which means no free time. which brings another not fail but it's sad-i had to cancel my mask maven. i loved getting this every month and trying new masks. my schedule is very busy so my skin care has suffered besides eye cream and moisturizer. i have a bunch of masks i still need to use, but only having 2-3 days for proper skin care isn't getting my stash down quick enough. i would recommend this to anyone, skin care lover or not, because it's like a present to yourself and it helps your skin. so sad :(

mask maven aug 2016

 this months theme is about cooling down after exercising. this should be useful as i am mostly walking.


 saference skin rx moisturizing mask-this has plant and HA extracts. i do like HA masks so this is nice.

 missha real solution tencel mask-it has ceramide (fatty acid) and vegetables extracts, which i'm only familiar with vegetable. this should be interesting.

 beauty friends coq10 mask-i have had a coq10 mask before and quite liked it so this should be nice to use.

 beauty friends vitamin mask-it has vitamin e in it which i've used in other masks.

 dr jart vital hydra mask-it doesn't have much in ingredients listed, so i have no idea what's in this one.

 yadah cactus mask-i haven't tried a cactus mask so i'm excited to try this one.

 yadah honey mask-i have honey masks and they are quite nice.

 it's skin cream glow mask-this is supposed to brighten your skin, which mine could use some brightening.

yeon live pack-i'm mostly sure it's pear. i haven't used a live pack before so i'm curious as to how it works.

this month wasn't as thrilling but i do like the cactus and live pack masks. it's also nice to try other brands out during the month.

current favs july 2016

|BEAUTY|
nyx electro and vivid brights liners-since it's been hot and i've been working more, i haven't had a lot of time for makeup so this makes it easy to have fun makeup.

maybelline baby lips make it pink lip balm-i like this because it is a nice shade of pink and smells like icing and marshmallow.

maybelline fit me powder translucent-i like this because it doesn't get cakey and reduces the shine.

|NON BEAUTY|
working full time-i was promoted at work to a lead, so i will be full time both working and student. i won't have a lot of time so post might slow down a lot.

pokemon go-i was raised with pokemon so this is exciting to play. currently on the hunt for lapras and growlith.

b&b sweet escape perfume-it smells like sweet strawberries and you feel like middle school again.

 scinic intensive soothing mask-this does come in 2 parts, which i haven't tried yet but it seems cool.
