Humble Beauty Opinion #106 :: Sept 2022


Another late Humble Beauty Opinion- this one is September 2022! 
Usually my favorite month to do HBO posts because of birthday gifts 
from Sephora + Ulta but this month... not so much. 

 I went to Ulta in West Windsor to pick up my gift 
& YET AGAIN they "didn't have any left" again, 
every year this is the case
🙄 

This year Sephora had three options to choose from:

I went with the amika Birthday Gift Set,
also got a sample UD All Nighter spray for my handbag, 
these samples are perfect for on the go!

A VERY exciting birthday gift this year was this beautiful tartan Dooney & Bourke bag 
I was expecting to like this perfume, but I LOVE IT!
such a familiar yet difficult to describe scent, it lasts for days, I really love it.

Lets continue to my monthly subscriptions, purchases, reviews, wishlists & empties!

Starting with my monthly subscription to Ipsy!
This month was pretty good, I was excited about the bag itself but in person it is just okay.
I am excited about the Youth to the People moisture cream 
and I am using the Refreshments Brilliant Body Bar in Jasmine Sunrise, also just okay.


I am very excited for my October bag!
love the web pattern 🕸 

In September I fell back in love with the Revlon "Holographic Pearls", 
perfect birthday polish!

Got some goodies on my monthly makeup wishlist!

Speaking of polishes, I have a few on my wishlist this month-
I love this, I think I might purchase!

I also have a thing for green nail polishes these days, 


I am also interested in these liners from the Harry Potter x Colourpop collection,
interesting colors!
from top to bottom: cup | locket | diadem | sword

I am also interested this new "Goddess Eau de Parfum Intense" from Mugler, 
I love "Alien" one of my favorite scents 
so when ever Mugler puts out a new scent I am immediately intrigued 
although not enough to purchase another one yet... 
maybe I should go for the travel spray, wish they had a gift set of all of them-
 such interesting packaging!

I am also very intrigued by this "skin cycling" skincare routine and am considering trying it out

This month's empties, what I used up, loved, hated  
& all my humble opinions in between:
bath: refreshments "Brilliant Body Bar" in "Jasmine Sunrise" from Ipsy- I like this nothing to write home about though | Almay "Sensitive Skin" deodorant- I like this, a good basic, gets a little sticky if you twist a little too much | The Nue Co "Barrier Culture Cleanser"- again nothing to write home about with this either 🤷🏻‍♀️ | Hero. pimple patches- I like these, they are a great way to help heal a pimple that you can feel starting or a great reminder not to touch one that you have been battling for a few days | Dental Whitening Treatment from Target- I think these work just a well as the Crest ones, would recommend although they make my teeth a little sensitive but they all do for me | Clinique "fresh pressed renewing powder cleanser"- I liked these from my Clinique advent calendar but they are kinda hard to use as the powder in one was like airborne and I am pretty sure I breathed it in 

face masks: all the face masks I have used up over the last month, I have loved taking a little bit of "me time" to do some skin care lately. None of them have been anything special except the Tula Skincare "The Instant Facial" I really enjoyed this and I felt and saw a noticeable difference in the way my skin looked

beauty: PCA Skin "Sheer Tint Broad Spectrum spa 45"- I added this to my foundation and I enjoyed it! | tarte "Big Ego"- I liked this mascara but the brush is the entire bottle, very thick | Coastal Scents "Midnight Rodeo"- I loved this color for an all over lid, I am sad it is done and they seem to be out of business 😞 | Revlon face razor- I thought this was great until it wasn't anymore, these do wear out kinda quickly but love to use it to make my makeup apply more evenly | Bella B Body Buzz- I enjoyed this "Post Pregnancy Recovery Cream" to sure it helped with my stretch marks but it was nice | Coola Face Classic Sunscreen- I liked this, does have a sunscreen scent and lasted a surprisingly long time in my travel makeup bag | Purlisse Blue Lotus 4-in-1 Eye Adore Serum- a good basic eye cream nothing special | Derma E Vitamin C Concentrated Serum- I liked this for my skin, I think a vitamin c serum does help brighten my skin |
