Hopefully, even with my busy schedule I will have time for ME. Playing with skincare and makeup is usually the highlight of my week. I can step away from technology and focus on being in the moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I probably won\u2019t see as many empties this year but I have no expectations. Just as long as I get to my favorite products is all that matters to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Emptied 8 products with a total value of $213<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Body Care Products<\/strong>::\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/oseamalibu.com\/products\/undaria-algae-body-butter\">Osea Malibu &#8211; Undaria Algae Body Butter<\/a> &#8211; $56 for 6.7 oz\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>I love this rich body butter. Packed with natural citrus fragrances. Containing ingredients of Undaria Seaweed, Shea Butter, and Ceramides. I love to layer this body butter over their Body Oil. It leaves my skin feeling super luxurious and smelling amazing. Without a body oil and if applied on dry skin, it can be tough to blend well into the skin. Immediate application is key after a shower\/bath.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/soldejaneiro.com\/collections\/nav-body\/products\/beija-flor-elasti-cream\">Sol de Janeiro &#8211; Beija Flor Elasti-Cream <\/a>&#8211; $48 for 240ml (finished a sample)\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>While I do enjoy the scent of this cream. I kind of wish is was a bit more supple on the skin. I need to apply a couple of layers to give the same effect as a body butter (like above). I still have plenty of more samples to try for different seasons. The summer it worked well but this winter not so great. I&#8217;ll have to update as more season changes to come.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Hair Care Products<\/strong>::\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/johnmasters.com\/products\/hair-mask-for-normal-hair-with-rose-apricot\">John Masters Organics &#8211; Nourishing Hair Mask w\/ Rose &amp; Apricot<\/a> &#8211; $32 for 5 fl oz (finished deluxe sample)\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>This was a miss for me. It didn&#8217;t do anything noticeable. It is also heavily rose fragranced. Even trying to add a touch more weighted my hair down. Not the clean finished that I would have hoped for.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Skincare Products<\/strong>::\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.farmacybeauty.com\/products\/holiday-party-green-clean-trio\">Farmacy Beauty &#8211; Holiday Party Green Clean Trio<\/a> &#8211; $46 (3 x 50 ml)\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>I love Green Clean, this is a staple on my vanity! It came with three different scents: Blueberry Burst, Pear Punch, Tangerine Twist. Of all three my favorite scent is the Tangerine Twist. Although, I still prefer the original best.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ulta.com\/p\/bye-bye-breakout-salicylic-acid-acne-serum-pimprod2033095?sku=2598797&amp;cmpid=PS_Non!google!Product_Listing_Ads&amp;cagpspn=pla&amp;CATCI=pla-1000887380044&amp;CAAGID=114700756270&amp;CAWELAID=330000200002884737&amp;CATARGETID=330000200002541517&amp;CADevice=c&amp;gclid=CjwKCAiAxP2eBhBiEiwA5puhNSIcY8Wl2liGF6nGGlUnqDWVYjZuwNBaI13CiiVf0V_KtUoKm4hXSxoCzoEQAvD_BwE\">IT Cosmetics &#8211; Bye Bye Breakout Salicylic Acid Serum<\/a> &#8211; $29 for 1 oz\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>For an acne serum, it was just okay. It was a very liquid serum. Being that it was liquidy I don&#8217;t feel the potency level was there. I guess it was nice to help keep acne at bay but once it arises, it does nothing for my skin.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/supergoop.com\/products\/everyday-sunscreen\">Supergoop! &#8211; Play Everyday Lotion<\/a> &#8211; $22 for 2.4 oz\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>I really enjoyed this sunscreen. I was able to use it for my body and face without any issues with my acne skin. There is a noticeable scent but I did enjoy it without being overpowering. Best one I&#8217;ve tried from them thus far.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stylevana.com\/en_US\/purederm-collagen-eye-zone-mask-1.html\">PureDerm &#8211; Vegan Eye Mask &#8220;Collagen&#8221;<\/a> &#8211; $1.29 for 30 sheets\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>This did not do anything. After sometime it dried out very quickly. I definitely wasn&#8217;t expecting much for these at the price point it was being sold at. Still not worth $1 to be honest.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.peachandlily.com\/products\/peptide-pro-firming-moisturizer\">Peach &amp; Lily &#8211; Peptide Pro Firming Moisturizer<\/a> &#8211; $45 for 50ml\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Literally probably the best moisturizer for my dry skin. Not only did my skin feel a lot firmer but also felt nourishing during the fall to winter months. I emptied this before our huge dry weather but even when using it during New England dry days it was enough. Very slight fragrance and not overpowering or lingering.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>See products here on my Instagram:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"sbi-embed-wrap\"><blockquote class=\"instagram-media sbi-embed\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/CoVC7FUAWmu\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;
