May: Used, Abused And Reviewed.

I've been putting my travel pots to good use this month and used up loads of sachet samples! Also got through a few full sizes so here we go..


SBC Body Firming Gel £7.25: Theres not much to say about this. I didnt like the texture, it didnt moisturise my skin or make it any firmer and I wasnt a fan of the scent.
Would I Repurchase? No

Green People Itch Away Shampoo* £10.50: I only realised after a few uses that this is actually for men! lol Its really clarifying and soothes the scalp but isnt the best for dry hair. Its great to use once or twice a month to really get rid of any build up.
Would I Repurchase? Yes

Philip Kingsley Elasticizer £14.40 for 75ml: You can read my review here.
Would I Repurchase? No, atleast not at full price


A'kin Lavender & Anthyllis 24 Hour Intensive Moisture Leave-In Conditioner x2: I got 2 uses from each sachet. It left My hair silky soft but without that heavy feeling that so many leave-in conditioners have. Really loved it.
Would I Repurchase? Definitely, its on my 'list'

John Masters Organics Citrus & Neroli Detangler / Honey & Hibiscus Hair Reconstructor: Both of these are sooooo good! I plan to buy full sizes of both so will do a proper review then. I got 2 uses from each sachet and still have a sachet of the Hair Reconstructor left.
Would I Repurchase? Yes!


Lavera My Age Concentrated Lifted Serum x5: I got around a months use from 5 scahets but unfortunately I didnt notice any difference in my skin.
Would I Repurchase? No


EsteeLauder DayWear B.B Creme x5: I'm seriously in love with this B.B Creme, everytime I pass a counter I ask for samples. By far the best B.B I've ever tried but the lack of shades lets it down. You can read more about what I think here.
Would I repurchase? Yes


Perricone High Potency Eye Lift £75: Look how grotty under the lid is! It didnt fit properly and the pump didnt work so I had to open it everytime I used it. I got my dad hooked on this eye cream. He swears by it but it does nothing for me apart from moisturise the eye area but thats more to do with it being the wrong type of eye cream for my needs. I'm in my 20s and dont really need an 'eye lift'.
Would I Repurchase? No but definitely when I'm older

Did you manage to use anything up this month? Link me to your empties posts, I love reading them. :)

    1. Theres only 2 shades but the lightest shade they do, which is actually quite dark is the one I wear. Hope you like it :)

  2. Great post! You've reminded me that I need to try out that A'kin stuff (I got a sample with my last Naturismo order and still haven't used it yet!), hope it works as well for me :) x
