June empties and a couple of destashes.

 ⬆️ All loves and would definitely repurchase.

 ⬆️ Just ok, will not repurchase. The lawless lippes and JVN are destashes. I love the lippie formula but not the shades and I can’t stand the JVN tube packaging.

@faeriegirl  Great job! To bad the lawless colours are a miss!

[CookieGirl1]

@faeriegirl what a bummer about the Lawless glosses!  I love them but I totally understand how getting an "off shade" will kinda ruin the experience.

Congratulations 🌠 on your empties! 

Tell me more @faeriegirl I've never tried the Magic Cream but CT, it wasn't a good fit for you?

[faeriegirl]

@CynthieLu  It is a really good moisturizer,  it is just way overpriced. I think it should be more in the $50-$60 dollar range. If it was I wouldn’t hesitate to buy it again.

@faeriegirl @CynthieLu Agreed! It’s a great cream but it’s waaay over-budget for me. 

[CynthieLu]

I understand @JoSometimes @faeriegirl 

Big budget buys are sooo hard 😭

@faeriegirl Great job!!

@faeriegirl great job! I LOVE the trader Joe's Brazil scrub 😍

[faeriegirl]

Thanks @lmaster ! It is my favorite, I like it better than the SDJ scrub.

[lmaster]

I do too @faeriegirl

@faeriegirl Amazing empties. I am currently using the JVN hair cream and I do agree. I love the product inside. The packaging makes it hard to get out. Did the Tower 28 mascara having staying power? I always find I get racoon eyes if I don't wear waterproof mascara.

[faeriegirl]

@Mellmars1185  It lasted really well for me and I didn’t have smudges.

I’ve gone through so many tubes of #SEPHORA COLLECTION All Day Hyaluronic Acid Hydrator Moisturizer 1.69 oz/ 50 mL that I’ve lost count. Love it and will continue to buy it. I emptied both the one I keep at work and then one at home.

Hado Labs Goku Jyun was advertised as a lotion but it was actually more like a hyaluronic acid serum and that’s exactly how I used it. It was a great alternative to The INKEY List Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Serum 1/30 and you get sooo much more for your money. The ingredients were basically water, hyaluronic acid,  sodium hyaluronate, and one or two more thickening agents. I was planning to repurchase but they didn’t have it in stock so I settled for something else. Definitely buying Hado Labs again if I see it. 

Indeed labs exfoliator was a good alternative to Dermalogica Mini Daily Microfoliant Exfoliator 0.45/13. I wouldn’t say dupe based on the ingredients, but it was as effective at doing its job. The reformulated it as exfoliator ii.

Moroccanoil Hand Cream is a maybe for repurchasing. I like it and the smell is pleasant. I spent 100 points on this one. If they still had it as an option, I would repurchase it that way. 

Skinfix Eczema+ Foaming Oil Body Wash 12.5 oz/ 370 mL was great! Very calming but I still felt clean. Would repurchase again but I’d also love to find a cheaper alternative.

SEPHORA COLLECTION Ultra Glow Serum: Glow + Strengthen Vitamin C Serum I loved this one too! I feel like it did everything it advertised including being sensitive skin friendly. Recommended and will repurchase again.

Overall score: 5 loves and 1 maybe.

@JoSometimes  Great job!!! I have been raving about SEPHORA COLLECTION Ultra Glow Serum: Glow + Strengthen Vitamin C Serum ive had so many bottles I’ve lost count!! 

[JoSometimes]

It’s a great product @ather! There’s just one other j-beauty vitamin c that I want to try. Otherwise, I’m really happy with this one. 

[ather]

@JoSometimes  Which one is the one you want to try?

[JoSometimes]

@ather It’s Rohto Melano CC Vitamin C Brightening Essence. I’ve seen a lot of reviews for it on YouTube and they all agree it’s effective and safe for sensitive skin. 

[Samtian]

@JoSometimes Ooh good job!!

[JoSometimes]

Thank you @Samtian!
