Nourish Exfoliating Body Polish [Review]
A nice, gentle scrub. Not very abrasive at all - I was even using it on my face at one point! Different scent options would make it even better, as this unscented one just smells starchy and cornmeal-esque, which kind of wore on my nerves after a while.
Repurchase? Maybe.
Darling Girl Cosmetics Eye Shadow in Blitzen and Surfrider [Review]
Darling Girl eye shadows are some of my favorites! Both of these were light peach shades, which you may have noticed I wear a lot. Blitzen was a favorite, and while technically discontinued, Susan, DG's founder, found some hanging around that I was able to snatch up.
Repurchase? Blitzen yes, Surfrider, no.
Ella's Botanicals Skin Soother Beauty Bar Soap (sample)
I think I've tried almost all of Ella's bar soaps now and the Skin Soother is definitely my favorite. It has a different base than the rest of them - olive oil instead of canola - and I like it a lot more. As the name suggests, it's very gentle and soothing. It's technically unscented, but it has a delicate, slightly sweet smell that's quite lovely.
Repurchase? Yes.
Dr. Bronner's Magic Soap in Citrus and Unscented (samples)
Dr. Bronner's is always a staple. I regularly use it to clean my makeup brushes, hand-wash any delicates, and for a multitude of other jobs as they pop up. The citrus scent isn't my favorite.
Repurchase? Unscented, yes.
Badger Creamy Cocoa Cocoa Butter Lip Balm
Love, love, love this lip balm! It's great all year, but especially awesome in the winter, as it really coats and protects your lips against the cold. Creamy Cocoa doesn't have any added scent, letting the cocoa butter really shine.
Repurchase? Yes.
Young Living Essential Oils Thieves
A blend of clove, cinnamon, rosemary, lemon, and eucalyptus essential oils that's great for the immune system. I got hit with a cold in the beginning of the month and finished this bottle off while fighting it.
Repurchase? Yes, I already have.
Nice empties! Ella's has intrigued me but the canola oil turned me off, will definitely check out skin soother. xo
ReplyDeleteDefinitely give it a try! Some of her scents are lovely, but the canola oil turns me off too. Plus, this one just feels so much nicer than the canola oil ones :)
DeleteNice round of empties! The body polish sounds like it would definitely be improved with more scent options.
ReplyDeleteThanks! Cornmeal is not the most appealing scent for a shower product, eh? Funny too, since Nourish makes such lovely scents in all their other stuff!
DeleteThese all sound great! I just got a badger lip lip balm yesterday and I already love it :)
ReplyDeleteYes! Badger lip balms are amazing :)
