S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y morning! Let’s bust out the trash!!
Can we all just give Ake a hand for making trash talk way more interesting than I ever could because she is just that awesome with her masking ways?!! This week she does not disappoint!

Vacation is almost gone and so are these products. Vacation memories will be stored in my mind, these containers will go to a landfill somewhere in Northwest Wisconsin!
Thanks to Ake, I decided that I needed to jump on the sheet mask train. I tried the SpaLife three-step anti-aging and hydrating Hyaluronic Acid mask. First I put on a thick moisturizing cream and let it soak in for 2 minutes. Then I wore the sheet mask for 30 minutes and finally followed up with a serum. I can honestly say that my almost 50 year old face looked lovely and hydrated when I was done! It lasted for a full 24 hours too! Luckily this came in a three pack so I can repeat. Most of the ingredients in this mask were acceptable to me. (I bought this at TJ Maxx)
Stop The Water While Using Me! Toothpaste. I bought this just because I liked the name. The toothpaste itself was ok. It made me think of when people used to brush with baking soda maybe? I would buy it again.
Sunday Riley mask/serum. I am on board with whoever else didn’t really get this. It was ok and I used it freely this week because, while I know I should not worship the sun, the fact that I grew up a “lake kid” makes it impossible for me to be at the lake and not spend as much time in the sun as possible. Would not bother with this stuff again though.
Osmia Rose Nectar oil. There is actually still a few uses, but I wanted to get the picture so I will be finishing this in the next few days. I actually had received several of these. It is a nice oil, the scent just isn’t for me, it smelled like bad breath in my opinion? Hmmmm. I do love Osmia products overall though…
Kat Von D tattoo liner. This is my go to travel liner so that I do not have to bring my gel liner brush. It is pretty easy to put on, lasts quite well and works for a no makeup look. I also included a picture of a cat that I drew. More than anything, I have wanted to get in on the eyeliner cat art since I have been reading this blog! 😻
Deep Steep Fresh Honey body butter. Another go with me travel item. I love the packaging and a little goes a very long way with this stuff. It does have a slight floral smell which I don’t always love but it is mild. Another fabulous Deep Steep product!
Tarte guard SPF 30 facial moisturizer. This worked very well for as much as I was in the sun! I was religious about putting on my sunscreen and I definitely think it helped!
Juice Beauty cleansing milk. I paired this with my Kari Gran cleansing oil. It worked.
Juice Beauty Green Apple Brightening moisturizer with SPF. Another! Juice Beauty sample! It seems like every box I get has at least one. Is Juice Beauty the Harvey Prince of skin care? I never have any complaints about Juice Beauty. It does what it is supposed to do. Wait, one complaint about Juice Beauty…the samples always appear to be deluxe sized, but I swear they are only half full! Has anyone else noticed that?
Well, that is all the trash that is fit to print for my vacation version of trash Saturday!
I love this weeks trash talk so much. Let me count the ways:
1. We now officially have a trashy community
2. Ake’s Review of Mahalos mask just makes me so happy
3. Dayle sent the Mahalo sample to Ake
4. Dayle was thinking of us on vacation
5. I am not the only one wondering if Juice Beauty is going to be in every natural Sub box this year
6. Dayle’s kitty swatch is awesome!
7. I am not the only wondering why eye cream takes for ever to use up
Ok now:
@Dayle, I have been hearing soooo many great things about Deep Steep!!!
@ake, thank you again for being such a great reviewer!! I love reading your posts!
I am so happy that you loved the Mahalo Ake! Who knew you had to use it every day! I definitely think you should consider Beauty Heroes, I get so many products that I could never justify paying full price without knowing for sure that it works and is worth it to me. An amazing review!
Kitty drawings are my go to scratch when I am in a meeting! It was fun to try my eyeliner kitty!
Thank you again for sending it to me! I’ve been cutting back on boxes, but I’ll have to give Beauty Heroes another look.
Anyway, I love your cat! And I’m super impressed that you took photos and wrote reviews on vacation. That’s serious dedication to Trash Talk.
Nice reviews. I feel the same way about Sunday Riley products, I’m happy to try their products but I’m usually underwhelmed and I think the stuff is crazy expensive. I do want to try that Mahalo mask.
They finally have samples for sale on their website until August 15th. The Petal mask sample is $9
Nice!!!! Thanks for the info ordering tonight.
Ake, I also have that eye cream and have been wondering how long it lasts! Holy spinnoli. Every day I’m like, okay I guess there’s still MORE in there after 6 months… Eye cream is good for the eyes AND the wallet, heh.
Dayle, I love your kitty sketch!
Speaking of kitties, while I’ve been at my desk catching up on blog stuff [instead of homework], my cat decided it was time I got a cat hair beard, so after rubbing herself on me and tapping her tail on my face, I’m now quite furry. Cat love for sure.
Kitty Swatch <3!!!
I need to look into those Mahalo samples you know how obsessed I am about Hawaii!
That Sunday Riley started to sting ma face. I am sure it was something else that I am using that the peel part made sting so I am using it on dry spots randomly found and peace in the jungle was made. I love the Tarte sunscreen sample *sucker for pumps*
Lovely trash ladies!
