Products I've used up - April 2013

Hey All - (I keep wanting to write ya'll, but I just can't pull that off!! haha )

I finished up a bunch of products since my last post and thought I would share with you what they are and if I would re-purchase or not! Hope you enjoy!! 

Starting from the left side 

Lady Speed Stick deodorant in Shower Fresh

Thoughts: Love this stuff, I've been using this same kind of deodorant since probably high school! I just am a little afraid to branch out and try something else. I know this works so what if something else doesn't, I don't want to be smelly!! The scent was nice. 

Repurchase: Already have! 

FYI by Arbonne sugar slush body scrub

Thoughts: I found this in my cabinet and it was rather old, but I used it up anyway. The smell was OK, and the scrub was nice but since mine was old I'm not sure it was suppose to be the consistency it was. 

Repurchase: No, I would not. 

Jordana Fabuliner in Black

Thoughts: I love this stuff. It's a great, inexpensive liquid liner. It lasts all day , doesn't smudge and easy to work with since it's a felt tip. 

Repurchase: YES!!! A great liquid liner for about $2. Currently using the brown one. 

The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil 

Thoughts: Love this!! Once I figured out how/what to do with this stuff, I didn't stop using it. This bottle took me a long time to go through. The smell was really nice and helped with acne spots. 

Repurchase: Yes, I would re-purchase. I am currently using just Tea Tree oil I got in a larger bottle from Walgreens but the smell is just not the same. This product does have other ingredients in it besides Tea Tree Oil which I believe it's that way. I'm just waiting until I get a good deal on it from The Body Shop! 

Sample size of the Benefit Bad Gal Lash mascara 

Thoughts: I have used this before and I liked it. The brush is really big on this mascara, which doesn't bother me. Once it starts to dry out it would start flaking on my face 1/2 way through the day. It was time to re-tire it after it started doing that. 

Repurchase: No, I wouldn't purchase a full size of this product. It was nice, but not worth the price when you can get drugstore mascaras that do a great job for 1/2 the price. 

Sample size of the Tarte Clean Slate 360 creaseless 12-hour eye primer

Thoughts: I got this in a small kit with 2 other Tarte primers. It was ok primer, but not great. There are other primers out there I would purchase over this. I don't think it really holds up to the standards they put on the bottle. It did make my eye shadows last all day, but depending on the shadow I would see some minor creasing after a full day. 

Repurchase: No, I would not purchase the full size of this product. As I stated above there are far better primers out there for me. 

Neutrogena Shampoo 

Thoughts: This is a great clarifying shampoo. I use this stuff once a week to completely clean my hair and I really think this does the trick. Clarifying shampoos can be rather expensive but this one is only about $5 or so. I don't find it drying and my hair feels really clean after using it.

Repurchase: Yes, I would! This probably is my 2nd or 3rd bottle of this. I'm currently trying out a different clarifying shampoo but will probably return to this when I'm done, based on price alone.

Equate Exfoliating Cleansing Towelettes

Thoughts: I have already talked about these so much! I love them!! Read my night time skincare routine post where I talk more about them! 

Repurchase: Already have, just the other day! They have new packaging now but the product inside is exactly the same! 

Simple cleansing facial wipes 

Thoughts: They were OK. Not the best makeup wipe I've ever used. They did a decent job at getting off my makeup but they certainly did NOT remove my eye makeup. I felt they were a little rough on my skin but they did have a nice scent. 

Repurchase: No, I would not re-purchase these. I just love the Equate exfoliating ones to much. But I'm glad I tried something new. 

Vitafusion Omega 3 Gummy Vitamins

Thoughts: I love gummy vitamins, so this is an easy way for me to get Omega 3. They don't have the best taste in the world but I would rather have these than take a fish oil pill everyday. They get the job done. 

Repurchase: Yep, I already have! 

Hope you enjoyed reading this post on the products that I've used up! I kind of feel more accomplished knowing I'm actually using products up! This is a great way to keep track of all the things you have used and what you did and didn't like.  

Thank you so much for reading!! :)
