August 2014 Empties

Hey guys!!!

I have collected quite a bit of trash so now I am going to show you what I have used up, what I think of it, and would I repurchase it. 






  • Yes To Cucumbers Soothing Hypoallergenic Facial Towelettes- I love these wipes to remove any swatches from my hands or arms. I will definitely repurchase these as soon as I can get to a store which I hope is soon.
  • Rimmel London SCANDAL EYES Liquid Eyeliners- I used up two liquid eyeliners. One is the Precision Micro Eyeliner and the other is the Thick & Thin Eyeliner. I really enjoyed these liners so much especially since they were waterprooof. Maybe I will repurchase them in the future, but right now I have been into gel liner so I don't know. I do highly recommend them though.
  • Rimmel London Scandal Eyes Waterproof Eyeliner- At first I thought this was okay, but one day it smudged really bad on me that I couldn't even finish this up. I know a lot of people rave about it, but it didn't work out for me. I am still in search of my holy grail liner.
  • Maybelline The Rocket Volum' Express Mascara- I LOVE LOVE LOVE this mascara. It is my holy grail, but I want to try other mascaras and I will eventually repurchase this again. It was a sad day when this started clumping really bad on me.
  • Rimmel London SCANDAL EYES Retro Glam Mascara- I had a love hate relationship with this mascara. During the summer I would practice everyday my eye makeup and I would apply this mascara to use it up. I never went anywhere anyways so I used it till it started clumping. I would not repurchase this one.
  • Mary Kay Eye Primer- This was my holy grail eye primer for a long time and it still is. I will eventually repurchase this one day, but for now I have to use up the eye primers I have first.
  • Benefit the POREfessional- I received this sample from Sephora and I really like the primer. My foundation would look flawless after I applied it. I don't know if I will purchase this yet just cause I am on the hunt for my holy grail primer and I don't know if this is it.
  • Pixi Beauty Bronzer- I received this in my first Ipsy bag and I really enjoyed it, but it is not holy grail status. I found my high end holy grail bronzer now I need to find one at the drugstore. Any suggestions?
  • Smith's Rosebud Salve- It was an enjoyable lip balm, but not holy grail. I will possibly repurchase this, but in the tube version. I kinda hated dipping my finger in the pot. To me its unsanitary. Is there a difference between the pot version and the tube one?? 
  • Bath & Body Works Anti-Bacterial Gentle Foaming Soap- The scent is Tis the Season. I got it during the semi annual sale last year and I barely finished it. I mostly use the other soap that is in my bathroom since I share with my bro he wouldn't want these soaps to be the only one in the bathroom haha. I will def repurchase more in different scents. I have one in my bathroom as we speak.
  • Garnier Clean Nourishing Cleansing Oil- I love this product to remove my makeup and I will definitely repurchase in the future. I want to try out other cleansing oils. Any suggestions?
  • Boscia Clear Complexion Treatment- I bought the Clear Complexion Kit and I finished up the Clear Complexion Treatment first out of everything. My skin was loving it so much that I already bought the full size of it. I also love the cleanser and the toner, but the moisturizer I am not too much of a fan. Do you guys know of any good moisturizer for normal to dry skin??
  • The Body Shop Chocomania Body Butter- I got the travel size whenever they were having a sale and I love their body butters. I really loved the smell of this one! I will be repurchasing another one soon. 
What are some of you guys holy grail products???

Rose and Ben Beauty Brushes

 Hey guys!! I haven't done a beauty post in a while and I was in the mood to do one because I am very excited to talk about these! I started follow Rose on IG roseandben  thanks to my friend and I have been loving her content. You can see the passion she has for makeup. I love that she posts on IG stories almost everyday doing a tutorial or talking about her fav products.  I have actually purchased and few of her recommendations and 99% of the products I have bought have become staples in my collection.  When she announced she was coming out with a brand  Rose and Ben Beauty  I just knew it would be brushes because she would always be using prototypes in her tutorials. I trusted her judgment in products soooo I bought most of the collection.  Aren't these brushes beautiful?? When I first got the brushes I felt the bristles and they were so soft. The quality of the bristles and even the handles feels so luxurious. I love the color of the handles too. I ...

Battle of the Eye Primers

Hey guys!! I have oily eyelids and I struggled when I was younger with my eyeshadows and eyeliner creasing. At the time I never understood why. I went into sephora a couple years ago with my best friend and asked "how can I stop that from happening?" That's when I was introduced to eye primers. My first ever eye primer was the Too Faced Shadow Insurance. I have been testing out 6 different eyelid primers and out of the six only two did not work for me. I decided to do this blog for the people that have that same issue as me and to show you guys what options there are out there in the make up world from drugstore to high end.   I tried the ELF Eyelid Primer, Rimmel Exaggerate Undercover Shadow Primer, Mary Kay eye primer, Urban Decay Primer Potion, Too Faced Shadow Isurance, and BareMinerals Prime Time Primer. I'm going to start off with the one that was the worst one out of all of these. It was the Rimmel Exaggerate Undercover Shadow Primer. $4.99 ...

Aveeno ultra calming makeup removing wipes

Hey guys!!! I received the Aveeno makeup remover wipes as a gift! Finally I was able to stop using the horrible wipes that I was using before!! These wipes are amazing! They smell so good and everytime I take one out I have to smell it before I use it on my face. They are very moist and they remove most of my face and eye makeup. I always go with a cotton round with another makeup remover no matter which wipes I use just to make sure everything is off. I don't know if they remove waterproof mascara since I am not using one at the moment. Most IMPORTANTLY it did NOT break me out!  I looked online on walmart to see how much it was and it is around $7. I probably will purchase this myself later on down the line.
