ELF Clear Brow Gel / Mascara – I’ve already repurchased. This is basically a staple at this point. Not sure I’d call it a Holy Grail because it’s annoying how fast it runs out, but it’s cheap and effective, so it keeps coming back. Also picked up a Wet n Wild product similar to this (but single sided and MUCH larger) to see if maybe I’ll complain less (similar price point, but a couple dollars more expensive… I refuse to spend $15 on a brow gel lol)
Flower Beauty Lipliner – I think this was in shade Rose? The label on the bottom is so damaged I can’t really see the shade. Despite this being a pretty MLBB pinky-nude tube, the actual product was closer to hot pink. It also had a weird chemical-y smell. I used it out to sort of ‘balance off’ some glosses or nude lipsticks that weren’t quite hitting. Would NOT repurchase.
Neutrogena HydroBoost Cream – Feels very hydrating without being greasy and absorbs quickly. This one doesn’t make me break out, so I went ahead and repurchased. Overall pretty happy with it, if a bit annoyed that it isn’t super cheap unless on sale lol
CHI Aloe Vera Curls Defined – Got this as a sample forever ago. I mean it works, but I’m NOT the biggest fan of it ? A tiny amount goes a long way but it also made my hair feel a bit stiffer than I’d like when applied. Would not purchase a full size.
Raw Sugar Healing Power Hair Masque – This one was OK as well. Wasn’t horrible but also not hydrating or impressive enough to repurchase.
Burberry Brit For Her Mini – Got this one as a gift in a larger kit of samples. Enjoyed it well enough, but I’m not sure I’d be going for a full size any time soon. Another in the category of nice, but not nice enough to make it a “must rebuy” any time soon.
OMAVE Hair Mask – This actually left my hair SUPER soft and smelling nice. Absolutely LOVED this and am more than just a little crushed that I can’t find this anywhere aside from people reselling on eBay or Mercari. Yes, I went ahead and bought one off eBay while I try to find something else even vaguely comparable, and yes, I’m cursing TJ Max for letting me find this on a clearance rack and then not restocking it.
