Shopping My Beauty Samples

Just one more week of school!! I can't wait to have another break, this class was kind of challenging and really made you think. Well today I am bringing you another Shopping My Beauty Samples!! Since I organized all my samples, it is easier to use them up and have room for more that will come lol! Let's get into the reviews!!



Carol's Daughter Sacred Tiare 4 in 1 Combing Creme



Box It Came From: Essence Beauty Box
Full Size or Sample Size: Sample Size
Price Point: 10.00
Review: I have only used another product like this by Shea Moisture and I love this one just as much! This products helps the styling process go much smoother by getting the tangles out you may have missed and makes it so much easier to style your hair, This has come in handy whenever I do my hair because it tends to have a mind of its own sometimes lol! It makes my hair so smooth and so easy to style without any issues. I am going to purchase the full size!!

Jane Carter Solution Seal and Shine


Box It Came From: Essence Beauty Box
Full Size or Sample Size: Sample Size
Price Point: 15.00
Review: I have seen this brand in Target but just never picked anything up. I'm glad I got this in my box and have been using this a lot lately. I spray this all over my hair in the morning before leaving the house and love the shine it gives my hair. It also helps to keep my hair moisturized with Shea butter, mango butter and other essential oils. I think I would purchase the full size and pick up other products by this brand.

Model Co Lip Laquer in Morocco


Box It Came From: Birchbox
Full Size or Sample Size: Sample Size
Price Point: 24.00
Review: I have received a couple lipsticks by this brand and loved them. I was pretty excited to see this in my box. This is like a brown nude on me so I have to pair this gloss with a brown lip liner. It has a pretty good wear time and is not sticky or drying at all. I'm not sure if I would purchase the full size but really liked this gloss.

Earth's Nectar Coconut Curls Leave In Conditioner


Box It Came From: Essence Beauty Box
Full Size or Sample Size: Sample Size
Price Point: 23.50
Review: I'm just going to say I'm obsessed with this leave in conditioner and already want the full size! I saw this product on the Glam Twinz channel when they did a high end hair product haul. I was happy when I got this in my box and just fell in love the first time I used it. The funny thing is , this smells nothing like coconuts, it smells like limes lol! I love the consistency of this product and how well it kept my hair moisturized and feeling so soft. I was on the Sephora website looking at all the other products this brand has, I want to try a few things. This may be my new favorite leave in conditioner!

Clean Blossom Eau de Parfum



Box It Came From: Birchbox
Full Size or Sample Size: Sample Size
Price Point: 72.00
Review: As you know, I don't mind getting these perfume samples. I actually like trying out a whole bunch of different perfumes before committing to a full size. I really like this fragrance. It is perfect for this time of the year. I really smell the warm cotton and blossom notes which are nice and light. It is not a strong scent and can be worn day or night. I may look into this one if they have it in a rollerball lol!

Clean Reserve Eau de Parfum



Box It Came From: Birchbox
Full Size or Sample Size: Sample Size
Price Point: 72.00
Review: I think I got these back to back and I really like this one too. This is more of a warmer scent which I love to wear during the colder seasons. It is like a woody, floral scent which you could wear day or night as well. If this is sold in a rollerball, I may pick it up.

So that is it for Shopping My Beauty Samples. Have you tried any of these products? What were your thoughts? Comment below and let me know. See you guys Thursday!!

  2. Reading your post makes me want to try Jane Carter again. I used it before when I first became natural (like 4 years ago) but haven't tried it again. I may just pick up some :)

Sometimes its hard.....

You know when you keep thinking of something and you just feel like you have to get it out? That was me before sitting down to write this post. I had something else planned to write but I kept thinking...sometimes its hard and it just evolved from there. We all heard the sayings, life isn't fair, life is hard and so on. Sometimes life can be hard but we don't experience it for long. There are so many things that I want to do but I know I can't do a million things at once. I can't just pick and go anymore, I'm someone's parent now. There are times I want to but I know things have to be planned out now. I will get to those place I want to go, just have to be patient and plan it out. It seems like we focus so much on what is hard about life that we forget about the easy stuff. We forget sometimes about all the good things that happen and to be grateful for getting through those rough patches. You may not like your living situation but you have a roof over ...

On a personal note....Update on Blogging and Personal Goals

Happy Football Sunday!! I hope everyone has been enjoying the weekend and getting ready to celebrate Thanksgiving!! I can't believe it is this week! I can't wait to spend time with family! I thought about giving an update to the personal and blogging goals I set for myself last year with the Resolute Beauty Blogger series. You can check out my results post  HERE!!  I completed this in May of this year so let's see how I've been doing since then. Blogging Goals 1. Attend A Blogging Event- Since then I have not attended another event. I was so happy when I did find my one event to attend. I have been keeping in contact with those bloggers I met and reading their blogs. I have been finding events but there are scheduling conflicts. I hope to find another one very soon. 2. Set A Blogging Schedule- I am still sticking to my Sunday, Thursday and every other Friday schedule. It has been really working with my hectic schedule I already have. 3. Change Up Current Style-...

No Buy is Officially Over!!

Yay!! I survived 2 months without a single makeup purchase!! I am so proud of myself and knew I had the will power to do it!! It really helped me staying out of Sephora, Ulta and Mac, the usual places that get me in trouble lol! When I went into Target or Walmart, I wouldn't even go near the makeup section. Funny thing is, I haven't run to the store yet to purchase anything on my wish list yet but I will soon. You can see what is on my wish list here.  After organizing my makeup, I realized I have a lot of products that I don't use and need to try out soon. I'm going to try to really shop my stash before running out and buying something new. Maybe next time, I will go for a 3 month no buy!! Have you successfully completed a no buy? What is currently on your wish list? Comment below and let me know!! ~** Drea Notes**~ We went to the beach today and I'm so glad we did! It was such a fun day with the family!! I'm trying to get back to working out lol!  ...
