1. bareMinerals Original Mineral Veil Pressed Setting Powder in Translucent: This setting powder is fine. It does the job in terms of setting my foundation and minimizing the appearance of pores. I have no complaints about it.
2. Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Frizz Tamer Slicking Hair Serum Wand: I really like this product! It has a mascara-like wand and works great at taming those random little fly-away hairs. I took this with me when we were in Europe and it was great at touching up my hair throughout the day. I also just have a random little section of hair that curls weird so this is great at smoothing that out.
3. Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm in Hot Cocoa: I really really like the Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balms but this is not my favorite flavor. (I always feel weird saying flavor since you don't eat it but I don't know how else to describe it!) It does have a strong chocolate scent, very much like hot cocoa, but to me it's just kind of weird. It works the same as any of the other flavors but just this particular one isn't my favorite.
4. JVN Complete Hydrating Air Dry Hair Styling Cream: I was a little disappointed with this product and ended up returning it. I've really been trying to figure out a way to air dry style my hair and was hoping this would help but it really doesn't do anything at all. I have other products that work way better at reducing frizz and this really didn't offer any hold or anything.
5. Josie Maran - Whipped Argan Oil Firming Body Butter in Vanilla Vibezzz: I really really like this body butter! I first got a free sample in an order and decided to buy the full size, but they were out when I was in store so I bought the mini size, then after returning a couple of things I ended up just ordering the full size online. It's a little pricier than I would normally spend on a body butter but I figured if it works and I like it then I might as well just get it!
It has a very light scent which I like. So if you are someone who likes fragrances then you probably won't really care for this. I did find that the sample size and the mini size seemed to smell better than the full size for some reason. That was disappointing because I do like the light scent.
Anyways, I've had really dry hands lately (just the time of year and I wash my hands a lot) and this seems to work very well for me. It's a little bit greasy but does rub in very well. So many lotions and body butters I've tried will just leave my hands feeling dry again as soon as it absorbs into my skin. I can use this and my hands will stay moisturized for a long time.
6. SEPHORA COLLECTION Cream Contour Stick in 01 Fair to Light: This was another item I returned. I was really hoping it would work but it was extremely hard to blend and had a very gray tint to it. I tried using it directly on my skin and also tried putting it on a brush and then blending but neither option worked very well. It just didn't work for me.
Have you purchased any new beauty products lately?
