November Empties

Since it's the end of November, it's time for November empties!

First I have the Clean and Clear dual action moisturizer which I use during the warmer months because it keeps my skin from getting oily and stops breakouts. It's great for warmer months because it's very light, but that doesn't work well in cooler months.
Next is the Neutrogena makeup removing towelettes (hydrating) which are the first removing towels I've used, as I usually use the Almay liquid. I've been going out a lot more recently so I picked these up in case I got lazy (which I did). They're great for when you get home late and don't want to wash your face. Be sure to rinse your face with water after using them or they may break you out!
Que Bella detoxify dead sea mask (target) is just a simple mud mask but I did notice that it works much better than other cheap ones I've tried so that was nice. I believe you can only pick up this brand at Target though.
Garnier triple nutrition nutrient spray is a great shine/leave in conditioner type treatment. I put it on after I get out of the shower and tousle it through my hair and when my hair dries it is a lot more healthy looking.
Lush cosmetic warrior mask- I did a previous post reviewing this so check that out
Maybelline dream fresh bb cream- This was a good base during the summer months so I was just finishing it up. It doesn't have much coverage but it does mask some imperfections. I did a previous review on this as well.
Too Faced Snow Bunny bronzing powder-I got this forever ago and have just hit pan. It has 4 colors in it, a light pink, darker bronzy pink, dark brown and shimmer white. I use the colors for eye shadows and highlights and as a "bronzer" during the summer months. You need a light hand though because it can make your skin look oily if you put too much on. It is a great multipurpose product though.
Mario Badescu sample size strawberry face scrub, whitening mask, and orange tonic mask-The strawberry face scrub has to be my new favorite scrub and I'm planning to buy the full size. It smells just like strawberries and has a great texture that's not to rough and your skin looks amazing afterwards.
The whitening mask is great for breakouts and reducing redness, I noticed that my skin was much clearer after using it.
The orange tonic mask is more of a moisturizing mask which I don't need but it would be nice if you have dry skin.

Lush Dreamwash Review

I had been meaning to buy this for a while and I just got to using it last week
and can now say that I love it with all of my heart.

In the winter time I get horrible shaving irritation that nothing helps and the lady at Lush
said that this is also a good shaving cream so I tried it.
It's very smooth and smells great obviously, as most Lush products do.
But I noticed that I had no irritation and it calmed the previous irritation that I did have.
After a week of using, my skin is completely back to normal, not just on my legs but my whole body is now super soft from this!

I really recommend it for winter. It is sort of a cold weather scent and it keeps your skin soft :)

LUSH Cosmetic Warrior Mask

Let me tell you something about this mask, it is my new holy grail skin product, and I just bought it two days ago! Basically all year long I will have near perfect skin with no breakouts, but the second the weather gets cold my skin goes crazy. I get these little bumps on my forehead that aren't even pimples but just will not go away. Well guess what, I used this last night and when I woke up today EVERY SINGLE bump was gone.

The smell is kind of off putting (eggs and garlic) but it's well worth dealing with it. Put it on for 5-10 minutes and rinse it off and your skin will already look more luminous.

I believe it was around $12 and you have to buy it in the store as it has to be refrigerated.

I'd been looking for a new face mask, and I definitely found my new favorite :)

Lush Haul

I finally got out to the mall today, and boy was that an ordeal! I forgot where I parked and ended up needing a police escort to find my car. Oh well, I got the things I went for and some extra (whoops).
First I went to Lush


I got the Dream Wash Shower Smoothie and Fun Pink. The Dream Wash smells absolutely amazing! I got Fun to use when I watch my little cousin and she takes a bath, but I'll use it for myself as well ;) This is my first time buying Lush products just because it's such a chore to go to the mall and get them, so reviews will certainly follow.


Then I got the Twilight Bath Bomb, Cinders Bath Bomb, and the Comforter Bubble Bar. I also got the Cosmetic Warrior mask, but that's in the fridge :)

Any other Lush products I should try? I'm excited to try these.
