klorane - dry shampoo with oat milk.
3.2oz // $20usd.
deluxe sample // 1.06oz //  $9usd.

this was a complete miss for me. the smell was pretty nice, but it didn't really get rid of my excess oils & it left a lot of white reside behind. i tried it when i had light red hair & again when i went back to being a brunette. the results were the same.

j-cat beauty - flying solo eye shadow

half naked // 0.09oz // $3usd

full size

as mush as i wanted to love this gorgeous color, the fallout was just insane.

below is a photo of the color swatch in natural lighting.

dr. brandt - pores no more pore refiner

1fl oz // $45usd

sample size // 0.25fl oz // $11usd

i reeeally liked this primer. :) 

it made my skin feel & look so smooth!

i didn't have any reaction to it, so that's always nice, plus it felt weightless & made my foundation glide on with ease. a little goes a long way ladies! 

jersey shore sun - mongongo lip conditioner

mandarin green orange // .15oz // $6usd

full size

if my august bag came filled with nothing but 5 of these babies, i'd be one happy camper. this stuff's amazeballs & it honestly couldn't have come in at a better time. my lips were a nightmare! so dry, swollen, and irritated. :( i've used this lip balm since the day it came in & it's made a huge difference!! i usually apply this right when i start doing my makeup so by the time i'm done and it's time to apply lipstick, my lips are super hydrated. 

USDA Certified Organic, no petrochemicals, non - GMO ingredients & NO PETROLEUM! 

urban decay - perversion mascara
0.4fl oz // $22usd
sample size // 0.1fl oz // $6usd

one of the best mascaras i have ever tried, hands down!! it made my limpy short lashes look so full and luscious! there was plenty of product on the brush that a second layer wasn't necessary. i still went ahead and applied a second layer, & i didn't notice any clumping.

$35usd

show me your goodies!
