Summer Fridays - Jet Lag eye serum (1ml) - this was really nice as a night eye cream as its pretty thick. MRP.

Tatcha - Dewy Moisturiser Milk (2ml) - This was okay, I'd use this in summer as it's pretty thin. MRP.

Caudalie - Vinopure Serum (2ml) - meh. WNRP.

Sunday Riley - Aquamarine Cleanser - This smells like 5 spice?? It tends to separate. WNRP.

Skin1004 - Sheet mask - nice. WRP.

JVN - Nurture Hydrating Conditioner (295ml) - This was nice enough, I got it on sale with the shampoo. Wouldn't pay full price but was worth it on sale. MRP.

Just one for me: Hask argan oil. My favourite of the hair oils I'm trying to use up. I'd consider rebuying this. It felt nice on my hands, not icky sticky like some can be.

Not an empty, but I did hit pan on a tin of lip balm, so that was fun to see.

  • Dachun Soap Fairyland Perfume - East Fame rollerball - 70% had evaporated. I found it to be an interesting light scent. Lavender, tea, woods, amber made it herbal with a light touch of oriental (not at all overpowering on warm days). MR
  • Estée Lauder Beyond Paradise perfume sample - Ancient sample vial. Smelled like powder and florals.
  • Sukin Sensitive Micellar Scalp Mask - Probably not a necessary product, but smelled nice and was easy to wash out. WR
  • Tonymoly I'm Lavender Mask Sheet - MR
  • Bee Beauty During Party Paper Mask - Worst sheet mask I've ever used. Extremely dry; stung my face. WNR

Hit baby pan in a large MUA bronzer

Destash:

  • Skinfood My Short Cake Setting Mascara - Dried out
  • BH Cosmetics eyeshadow sample

I finished three products this week:

  • Palmolive Dreamy Delights Body Wash 500ml (It was nice, I liked the lychee scent)
  • Schwarzkopf Gliss Total Repair Conditioner 200ml (I've gone through so many of these, it works well)
  • Hawaiian Tropic Hydrating Protection SPF50 Lotion 180ml (Not my favourite... A bit too greasy for my liking. The yellowish tint also felt threatening to my clothes)
