Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Pink Juice Moisturizer - I felt that this was too light weight.
*Tom Ford Traceless Soft Matte Primer - I need to try out a full size container because the sample was magical. I don't have oily skin, but I can get shiny in this heat and humidity and my base looked the same hours later as when first applied when I tried out this primer.
La Mer The Moisturizing Soft Cream - I don't see any changes in my skin that make this worth the price. I prefer Charlotte's Magic Cream over this and honestly think La Roche Pose's cream is just as nice.
Skylar Coconut Grove Parfum - Too juvenile, simple for my preferences.
*Supergoop Daily Dose Vitamin C + Spf - I thought this was really nice. I don't know about the efficacy of the vitamin C, but I really liked the formula and love 2 steps in one! I want to try this out more long term.
*(Malin+Goetz) meadowfoam oil balm. - I really like this. It is soothing and extremely hydrating. I would think this is too oily for those with oily skin, but I really love this and already have purchased a full size.
Megababe Space Bar Detoxifying Charcoal Underarm Bar - A lovely soap, but I can't say that I noticed a difference in body order and for the other comments see below.
The Famous Black Soap Sea Mud Deep Cleansing Bar - It's a lovely soap. I am not a fan of bar soaps overall... let me explain. I love the economy of bar soaps. Minimal packaging. Last forever. But, they make a mess wherever they are used and a black soap makes an even more visible mess.
Sulwhasoo Concentrated Ginseng Renewing Cream - A decent cream, but nothing stands out. I love the smell of this product which is very much an authentic ginseng smell.
The Nue Co Forest Lungs - I was so hopeful for this. I love the science behind forest bathing and the premise, the practice. I can't stand the smell of this and it is anything, but relaxing to me.
Creed Wind Flowers - I am surprised by how much I like this.
*Kopari Ultra Restore Body Butter - I really like this product. I plan to try a full size after I use up all my current body moisturizers.
*Elemis Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm - I love this. It smells luxurious and spa like. I love how my skin feels when I use this. I have a super sized container that I purchased during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.
*Kiehl's Midnight Recovery Omega-Rich Cloud Cream - I really enjoyed this and want to try out a full size after I run though my plethora products.
*Charlotte Tilbury Magic Eye Rescue - This is my currently holy grail eye cream. It makes a huge difference in the moisturization of my under eye. Seriously magic.
*Skin Science Hydrating Face Serum with Hyaluronic Acid - I love how moisturizing this is. Kind of end of story. Would purchase again.
Drunk Elephant Protini Polypeptide Cream - Not sure what I think. I think I have products that are significantly less that work just as effectively. Not sure if I will buy to try out a full size.
Drunk Elephant Protini Powerpeptide Resurf Serum - I really liked this, but I felt that I've used similar products for less before so I wouldn't purchase a full size.
Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado - I bought this in hopes that it would replace my CT Magic Eye Rescue. Nope. I don't like the way it sinks into the skin... it actually doesn't and instead sort of lays on top. I love Kiehl's products in general. Just not this one.
Paula's Choice Weightless Body Treatment 2% BHA - Meh. I don't find this moisturizing enough (at all) which means I have to use 2 products and I already struggle with apply body products daily anyhow.
The Ordinary "Buffet" Multi-Technology Peptide Serum - After a whole bottle of this I can say that I see no improvement in my skin. It's a why bother for me.
Jo Malone Wood Save & Sea Salt Body Gel - I have yet to meet a body wash that is worth a luxury price.
Shea Moisture Manuka Honey & Yogurt Glow Getter Nourishing Cleanser - This is a good cleanser. Not my fave though as it feels more mask like. I purchased this because there are some other products in the Manuka Honey line that I really like.
Verso Super Eye Serum with Retinol 8 - this is a solid eye cream, but doesn't replace my holy grain CT Magic Eye Rescue.
*Kiehl's Retinol Skin-Renewing Daily Micro-Dose Serum - I really, really like this.
*Careprost Bimatoprost Ophthalmic Solution - This has been the only thing so far that has caused eye lash growth. Unfortunately this only helps with lengthening and not new hair growth. I will keep using this for sure, but want to see if I can add something that will thicken my lashes.
Nuface Fix - Does this do anything?
*Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair - I definitely want to try this more as this is really moisturizing and luxurious.
*Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dew Drops - This stuff is magical on the skin. I love how dewy my skin looks. I don't know if there is any long term benefit, but this is on my list to purchase once my current serum runs out.
*Burt's Bees Pomegranate Moisturizing Lip Balm - My holy grail lip balm. I love the consistency and that it slightly colors my lips. Sublime.
Kate Somerville ExfoliKate Resurfacing Body Scrub - A nice body scrub. Not worth a higher price tag so if you can get this on sale maybe consider it.
Kiehl's Super Multi-Corrective Eye Zone Treatment - It's ok. I don't have much to say about this because it's not CT Magic Eye Rescue.
*Tula The Cult Classic purifying face cleanser - One of the nicest cleansers I have ever used. I love to use this as a second cleanser. I love the smell, the texture, the way my skin feels after it.
Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow PHA + BHA Pore-Tight Toner - I've tried a few like this and I am not seeing any benefit from using them. I love taking care of myself on one hand and on the other, if my routine has too many steps I'm more prone to skip it. Smarter not harder even when I enjoy it on a theoretical level.
Drunk Elephant TLC Sukari Babyfacial - It is nice, but not worth the price.
L'Occitane Rich Body Lotion - love the product, hate the packaging. For the price of the product, you would think it would use above subpar packaging. 1/5th of the product is left when the pump can no longer pull out product. So you have to take the pump off and slap the rest out. Why.
*Shea Moisture Manuka Honey & Yogurt Glow Getter Pressed Serum Moisturizer w/ Vitamin C - This is a really lovely moisturizer. I am not sure which one I prefer to use more like a serum, this one or the (Malin+Goetz) meadowfoam oil balm.
