7 Wonders Himalayan Camellia Pore Minimizing Sheet Mask
(Birchbox) Sheet masks are becoming my go-to for convenience. I didn't notice a major improvement in my skin after using this one.
Acure Organics Pore Minimizing Facial Scrub
(Birchbox Sample) This scrub was really weird. It was very fragrant, in a natural way. It was almost the color of coffee. I ended up using this on my body instead of my face - the smell and color was just too much for me to handle. I prefer more abrasive scrubs. I wasn't really a fan of this one.
AHAVA Dead Sea Plants Body Sorbet in Mandarin and Cedarwood*
(GWP Deluxe Sample) I just recently discovered AHAVA products. I liked this lotion and the scent too. The small bottle was great for on-the-go. I just prefer coconut oil.
Almay Clear Complexion Concealer in Light
This worked really well at covering blemishes and redness. I might repurchase this in the future.
Assured Cotton Rounds (80ct)
Compared to Swisspers Premium rounds, these are terrible. They fall apart so easily. I won't be cheaping out again.
Aveeno Positively Nourishing Comforting Whipped Soufflé
At first, I was disappointed in this product. For some reason, I thought I was purchasing a body butter. "Whipped soufflé" is an accurate name. This lotion grew on me. I liked the scent, I just prefer richer creams or coconut oil.
belif Hungarian Water Essence*
(GWP Deluxe Sample) I cashed in some of my Sephora points a belif set. This was one of the products included. I felt like it did help with putting moisture back into my face. I used this with other creams. On its on, it didn't feel like much. I don't see myself repurchasing this product.
Benefit They're Real! Tinted Lash Primer*
(GWP Deluxe Sample) I only used this a few times. It just seemed like an unnecessary extra step that added more time. I wasn't happy with the outcome - sticky, droopy lashes. Mascara on its own works just fine for me.
Bikini Zone Medicated After Shave Gel
This is great at stopping razor burn and ingrown hairs. I just purchased another brand, but I'm sure I'll come back to this one again.
Bioderma Sensibio H2O Water (100mL)
This is a staple and an HG product for me.
Bioderma Sensibio H2O Water (500mL)
This is a staple and an HG product for me. It just made my top 10 products list.
Caudalie Resveratrol Lift Eye Lifting Balm
(Sephora Play!) Sample) I love all things Caudalie. I enjoyed using this eye cream, but for the price, I didn't see major results.
Christophe Robin Regenerating Hair Mask with Rare Prickly Pear Seed Oil
(Sephora Play! Deluxe Sample) My hair felt amazing after using this mascara. However, I didn't care for the smell at all. It smells like a grandma wearing too much powdery perfume. Luckily, the scent only lingered for a few hours.
DenTek Complete Clean Easy Reach Floss Picks (75ct)
I picked these up at Kroger on a whim. I like how they are angled and featured a nice pick on the opposite end. They were a little annoying to store in comparison to the regular floss pickers. I'll probably repurchase these.
Dove Sensitive Skin Beauty Bar Soap
This is a staple and an HG product for me.
Dr. Bronner's 18-in-1 Hemp Baby Unscented Pure-Castile Soap
I wanted to try this soap for a while. It was great for my sensitive skin. I primarily used this as a shaving gel. It worked okay but I really prefer richer, buttery soaps.
Etude House My Lash Serum
I got this for under $5. I read it was supposed to make your eyebrows grow faster. I don't have any issues in the lash department but my eyebrows are another story! I'm not if this was effective or not. I used it every day for a month or two. I ending up switching to castor oil & vitamin E.
Gillette Venus Spa Breeze Razor Cartridge
This is a staple and an HG product for me.
Lancome Hypnose Drama Volume Mascara
(Sephora Play! Sample) I found this mascara to be really wet and messy. I wasn't a fan.
Marcelle 3-in-1 Micellar Solution
(Birchbox Sample) I can't believe Marcelle missed out on the chance to call this "Marcellar" water. This micellar water was effective. For whatever reason, I still like Bioderma more.
Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser Dark Circle Treatment Concealer in Fair
This is a staple and an HG product for me.
Maybelline Volum' Express The Rocket Mascara
This is a staple and an HG product for me.
Miss Spa Hydrate Facial Sheet Mask
I've been wanting to try this mask for so long. I've heard a lot of good reviews. I think for the $2 price tag, this mask is an effective treat. I'll probably purchase more of these soon.
Moroccanoil Dry Shampoo Dark Tones
(Travel Size) I can't stop raving about this. I already purchased the full-size bottle.
Nivea Pearl & Beauty Roll-On Deodorant
This is a staple and an HG product for me.
NO7 Stay Perfect Blemish Cover in Light
This concealer was TERRIBLE for my normal-to-dry skin. I really wanted something for on the go and to cover blemishes as they appear. I only used about 20% of this concealer. It always turned into a cakey mess on me.
Origins Super Spot Remover Acne Treatment Gel
This is a staple and an HG product for me.
Plackers Dental Flossers (50ct)
This is a staple and an HG product for me.
ProfilePRO® Ultra Nourishing Oil
(Birchbox Sample) I really liked this scent. At first, I liked the sample packaging. Towards the end of the bottle, it was just too hard to get product out. I did think this product was effective I just prefer Moroccanoil more.
Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer
(Deluxe Sample) This is probably my favorite primer. I like the silicon feel and find it effective. I have a lot of samples to get through, but I'll probably repurchase this.
Suave Essential Daily Clarifying Shampoo
This was a very effective shampoo for under $2! It really got rid of all the product buildup in my hair. I'll definitely repurchase this.

This is a staple and an HG product for me.

This is a staple and an HG product for me.

I absolutely hated these. I only used half the package. I didn't find them effective; they left so make makeup behind. They smell weird and really irritated my face.
Aromatique Cinnamon Cider Aroma Wax Melts (8ct)*
These were too cinnamon for me. I liked them but prefer more evergreen/fir candles around the holidays.
Aromatique The Smell of Christmas Potpourri*
I'm typically not a potpourri user but I was happy to receive this as a gift. The fragrance lasted over 3 months! I like how it provided decor and a Christmas scent in my guest bathroom.

This is one of my favorites around the holiday time!
Bath & Body Works White Tea & Ginger 3-Wick Candle
I really like this scent; it's so fresh and clean. I'm currently burning a second jar!
Bella Beechwood Bergamot Tin Candle*
I really liked this in the tin. However, while burning - the throw just wasn't there.
Bella Island Moonlight Tin Candle*
This is supposedly a dupe for an Anthropologie candle. I'll admit, it does kind of smell like an Anthropologie store. I liked it so much I already bought a second tin.
Better Homes and Gardens Warm Rustic Woods Fragrance Cubes (6ct)
This scent is one of my favorites!
Festive Fir Fragranced Soy Candle*
I liked this scent in the jar but the throw just wasn't there.

I loved this clean scent in the store. However, both the burn time and throw were lacking.
