Fenty Beauty by Rihanna - Match Stix Trio + Gloss Bomb

Match Stix Trio - Light 100
These match stix are so well curated to your skin. I got Light 100 and the stixs all suit my skin tone. I swatched these at Sephora upon purchasing and I thought the concealer, Linen, was a bit light so I wasn't sure if I should get this trio. I swatched the concealer for the medium trio, Bamboo, and I thought it was a better match. After trying it on my face and blended it in, Linen worked out just right. The contour stick, Amber, is great. It's not too dark nor light. If I want it to appear darker, I'd only need to keep building it on, but as for the most part, I really like a subtle bronze/contour. The shimmer stix, Starstruck, is amazing. I love it so much. It gave me that perfect glow. All in all, these stix are very easy to use, apply and blends nicely. It is a bit pricey. For one match stix is $25. The trio is $54, which I thought was a better deal. Oh and a cool thing about these match stixs is that they are magnetized, so it's highly convenient to always have them together and use.

Gloss Bomb - Fenty Glow
This gloss is so bomb. As I mentioned in the video, it reminds me of Lip Smacker lip glosses. I didn't expect it from the gloss bomb at all. It has a fruity scent. The formula is quite thick and could be a little sticky, but it feels so smooth and buttery once on the lips. I'm not sure if it's worth $18, but it's an universal lip gloss, so anyone could rock this and have your lip gloss poppin'.

Maple Holistics Tea Tree Shampoo

Here is the tea tree oil shampoo from Maple Holistics. This product was sent to me complimentary. I've never tried tea tree oil shampoo before and I've read the benefits from the webpage and was intrigued to try it out.

The scent of tea tree oil could be a little strong, similar to eucalyptus, but the shampoo isn't too overwhelming. I was interested in the benefits of the healthy hair growth and the slowing of hair loss and thinning since my hair is already so thin with damaged ends. 

I used about a quarter size amount like directed. I worked the shampoo into my hair for about 2 minutes. I didn't feel the rich lather from this shampoo. It felt pretty light. I've used this shampoo a few times now and I haven't noticed much of a difference, but it does feel fresh and rejuvenated. I think this would be even better if I had the conditioner as well.

PINCHme July Samples

Who doesn't love free stuff? I love to find ways to enjoy free things and I found out about PINCHme. It is a community that lets members sample products for free before buying them. I had to sign up and give it a try.

In July, I got to choose three samples. I picked ZzzQuil Nightime Sleep-Aid, Orbit White Gum and the SlimFast Advanced Nutrition Smoothie. There were not many to choose from and I think these were the only three available. The box took about a month and half to arrive. When I received the box, I was a bit disappointed on how small the box was. I thought the samples would be bigger because when I clicked on the sample choices, the photos were of the full/bigger product. Nonetheless, I was grateful to receive these for free.

The ZzzQuil Sleep-Aid came with two liquid capsules and you take both at bedtime. When I tried it, I wasn't feeling well at the time and decided to take this to help me sleep better. I didn't feel like I was getting sleepy from this, but it helped me fall asleep quicker than usual.

I chose the peppermint flavor for the Orbit White gum. The packet had two pieces inside. It claims to help keep teeth white and it is a sugar free gum. The flavor of the peppermint was nice, but the flavor went away quickly. It was just an average chew gum. I liked the outer shell of the gum though. It's fun to bite into.

I enjoyed the SlimFast Smoothie. I chose the mix berry yogurt flavor. It was very tasty. It serves as a meal replacement, and it did help me feel full.

Thank you so much PINCHme for these wonderful samples!
