I think what perhaps surprised me the most in April was the fact that I was able to finish up both bottles of Renpure Body Wash! They were both in use for a little over a year, but I didn't expect to finish them up in the same month. Overall, I used more body products than anything else, and I would happily use all of these products again! I used up a total of 11 products, and only one of them was a travel size.
Dove White Beauty Bar ($4.89-$11.99 for 2-14 bar packs from Target, Walgreens): This gentle, creamy cleansing bar contains ¼ moisturizing cream that leaves skin soft smooth and very clean. I have used it for many years, and absolutely love it! Purchase Again? I already have!
MyKirei Onsen Therapy Soothing Mineral Soak ($15.00 for a 5 pack from MyKirei by Kai and Amazon): This is a very soothing mineral soak that is perfect after a vigorous workout, or a long day at work. It relieves muscle aches and pains and it relieves stress. The Japanese Hinoki fragrance boasts a calming woodsy aroma that is a delight to the senses, while the mineral-rich tablet relieves the tension in sore muscles. A soak before going to bed helps one achieve a calm and deep sleep. Purchase Again? YES!
milk_shake lifestyling dry shampoo ($26.00 for 4.7 oz. from Amazon): This is a powder-based dry shampoo, with a delectable clean semi-floral aroma, that absorbs sebum, refreshes the scalp and hair and feels weightless. It's a great solution on the days that you don't shampoo your hair with water. If you love a good dry shampoo, this is definitely one to try! Purchase Again? I have other dry shampoos to use before I even think about getting another one, but I would happily use this again!
Cure Natural Aqua Gel ($39.00 for 8.5 oz. from Amazon): This is a very fun exfoliant to use because after you massage it into your skin for a short amount of time it transforms into a rather milky gel that causes dead skin cells to pill on the skin. The next step is to simply rinse the gel and dead skin cells off of your face or body, and you will be delighted by the extent to which your skin is left soft, smooth, supple and luminous. I routinely use it on my hands and feet, and am thrilled by the results. Furthermore, it is fragrance-free, free of harmful chemicals and so satisfying to use! Purchase Again? I just opened a brand-new bottle!
Vitabrid C¹² Wrinkle Serum ($72.00 for 1.01 oz. from Vitabrid C¹² and Amazon): This wonderful antioxidant-rich serum offers skin incredible hydration and protection from free-radical damage. It boasts a blend of novel peptides that help boost collagen production, and the result is the appearance of firmer skin and plumped fine lines. Their antioxidant formula, which is infused with Niacinamide, Bisabolol and Citric Acid, helps to brighten the skin and fade hyperpigmentation. The serum is mid-weight, fast absorbing, non-sticky and fragrance-free, and it leaves my skin soft, supple, smooth and incredibly luminous. Purchase Again? I just opened a brand new bottle!
Atelier Bloem 1614 Eau de Parfume ($69.00-$71.74 for 3.4oz. from Amazon and Walmart): This fragrance has a clean, fresh and delicate aroma that is punctuated by the detectable scents of citrus, Bergamot, Sambac Jasmine and Orange Blossom. Once it dries down the notes of Teakwood, Sandalwood and Musk warm the edges of the citrus. The end result is a fresh and dewy aroma that sits close to the skin, rather than hanging in the air, and delights the senses. Purchase Again? I would happily wear this again, but for now I am not purchasing any new perfumes because I have so many already.
Victoria Beckham Eye Kohl in Bronze ($34.00 each from Victoria Beckham Beauty, bluemercury, Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, Bergdorf Goodman): In my opinion, the formula is absolutely superior to everything else on the market. They are creamy to the touch, ultra-pigmented, and once they set they do not budge. They are waterproof without being harsh, and they glide across the skin effortlessly, deposit color evenly and they do not bleed or feather. There is a sponge-tip applicator on each liner that allows you to smudge effortlessly, and you have enough time to smudge before the liners set. On me, these liners stay put until I remove them at the end of the day.
Overall Assessment: I really enjoyed using all of these products, and there isn't a single one tat I wouldn't happily use again. What did you use up, toss out, give away or return in April? Any amazing finds, or terrible disappointments?
