ASAP CC Cream
I really liked this CC, if I didn't have a whole pile of other bases I'd happily purchase a full sized tube. As it is, I'll probably take three years to work through my foundation/BB/CC stash by which time I will have forgotten about this one.
Drunk Elephant Virgin Marula Oil
Meh. It was okay.
Alba Botanica Hawaiian Body Wash
Nice but not amazing. I'd buy it again if the price was right.
Alba Botanica Hawaiian Shampoo
Another nice but not amazing product.
It's The Bomb Whipped Soap
I love a good whipped soap. They are quite difficult to find. Thankfully for me Lisa makes them so I can stock up whenever I need to. If you are yet to try a whipped soap, get onto it!
The Body Shop Spa of the World Polynesian Monoi Radiance Oil
Oh how I loved this oil. It smells wonderful, is hydrating without being greasy and a pleasure to use. I'll definitely repurchase.
Natio Sunscreen
When I find a sunscreen that doesn't irritate Eljay and I, we buy it by the bucket load. This is one such sunscreen. I've already repurchased.
Nuxe Dry Body Oil
I don't understand the hype with this. It smells lovely but that's its only redeeming feature. I find it too oily for my hair and too light for my body. It'd be a beautiful perfume.
Corrynne's Exfoliating Face Wash
I've been using Corrynne's regular face wash for around twenty years. This was my first time trying the exfoliating version, it won't be the last. Next time I head down there I'll buy a full sized tube.
Alcome Co Black Magic Activated Charcoal Toothpaste
After finishing my sample tub I've purchased a full sized jar. I'm thrilled with how much whiter and clearer my teeth look now. The only drawback is the mess. This is so very messy. In the mornings I'll brush my teeth in the shower so that I don't have a mess to clean up. No matter how careful I am I end up with a big mess in the basin. The charcoal doesn't easily wash away so I have to clean it up with a face washer every time I've done my teeth.
Hylamide Nanoblur
When I've finished my other primers I'll be buying a full sized tube of nanoblur. If you like siliconey primers, you'll like Nanoblur.
Lip Lip Lip Balm
My newest lip balm love. These balms are beautiful. I've been using the tinted ones almost exclusively since I got them and will be purchasing more soon as I'm onto my last tube now and the thought of running out sends me into a panic.
Neostrata Ultra Smoothing Cream
This tube was too small for me to be able to tell if it did anything. It did make my skin tingle which is usually a good sign.
Real Techniques Miracle Face Sponge
I love this sponge more than the Beauty Blender and have already purchased a replacement.
L'Occitane Hand Cream
A staple in my collection. I've yet to find a hand cream that I like more than L'Occitane.
The standout item from all these samples is the Stila Aqua Glow foundation. It's so lovely that I immediately purchased a full sized bottle. the last thing I need is another foundation, but it's so beautiful that I had to have it. The coverage is medium to full with a subtle glow and a very natural finish. I look like I'm not wearing foundation, it's stunning.
