September 2020 PR Haul

>>A Huge Thank You<<

One of the biggest perks Beauty Bloggers get is PR and gifts from brands. I don't know where this blog would be without the products that brands send me to review.

If I had all the money in the world, I would of course buy all the beauty products that I want to test, but alas, I am broke. I need brands to send me their latest products so that I have enough content to post.

As you can see from my Instagram page, I rely on brands quite a bit. However, I never give any false reviews. If I hate a product, I do not talk about it on my page or blog. Period.

Well, if I do talk about a product, you know that I love it.

So, a huge thank you to the brands that sent me products last month. I was fortunate enough to have gotten 20 packages in the mail!

Do you want to see what was sent my way?

>>September PR Haul<<


1. Pixi Beauty PR Box- I actually signed up to be on the Pixi PR list years ago. I waited pretty patiently, and I was finally put on the list! The first box that I received was the Fall 2020 makeup collection. What a fantastic first PR package from Pixi! I was sent the two new eyeshadow palettes (Eye Effects Palette in Hazelnut Haze and Eye Effects Palette in Rosette Ray) and the two new face palettes (Nuance Quartette Palette in Honey Nectar and Nuance Quartette Palette in Sugar Blossom). I have a full review of the products here.


2. Acure Beauty PR Box- Acure skincare has been on my radar for a while now. I kept seeing their products at Target, and I wanted to give them a try. So I reached out to the brand, and they let me choose four products from their site! The products I received: the Seriously Soothing Blue Tansy Night Oil, the Brightening Vitamin C & Ferulic Acid Oil Free Serum, the Ultra Hydrating Green Juice Cleanser, and the Resurfacing Inter-Gly-Lactic Peel Pads. I love when brands let me choose the products I want to try. Reviews of these products are coming soon!


3. Nuria PR Package- I love it when new brands reach out to me and send me their products. Nuria contacted me via Instagram and then sent over two of their products. They sent the Defend Purifying Bubble Mask and the Hydrate Replenishing Biocellulose Mask. I am really excited to try these, and I will update you soon! I will have my first review on Instagram, so don't forget to follow my page.


4. Earth Harbor Helios Ampoule- I wanted to try Earth Harbor products, so I reached out to the brand. They let me choose a product that I wanted to try, and I chose the Helios Anti-Polution Youth Ampoule. I actually just started using this in the PM, and I have been loving it! The ampoule is very thick, so keep that in mind!


5. Ample:N Peptide Shot Ampoule- A influencer platform reached out to me with this opportunity. I of course said yes, and I received the Peptide Shot Ampoule.  Honestly, this is one of the coolest ampoules I ever tried. It has peptide fibers in the ampoule that you can actually see. The fibers melt into the skin, but they feel really interesting at first. I have been using this in the AM, and I will give an update soon!


6. Muddy Body Detox Clay Mask- I absolutely love clay masks, so I reached out to Muddy Body and they sent me their Detox Clay Mask and Brush.  It's a fantastic mask, and I love to use it weekly. They are having a huge sale right now, and I have a code for 15% off (mimwieds). I definitely recommend the brand!


7. Cali-Kay Products- It's almost time for my 2020 Holiday Gift Guide, and this year's small shops are sending me their best products. Included this year is Cali-Kay fragrances. I am so excited to share these products with you, I will be posting my full review of the shop this week! This package includes candles, wax melts, soaps, and a bath bomb. Everything smells amazing, and I am positive that you will love them!


8. Physicians Formula PR Package- I have been a huge fan of Physicians Formula for so long, so I finally reached out to them. They sent me a box filled with products, and I am so excited to test them all out! Everything they sent me is shown in the photo above except an eyeshadow quad that sadly came shattered. Products shown: the Coconut Milk Eye Makeup Remover, the Lash Mixologist Mascara, the Murumuru Butter Bronzer. the Triple Defense Multicolor Stick SPF 20, the Setting the Tone Finishing Powder SPF 20, the Eye Boost Gel Eyeliner Trio, the Natural Defense Total Coverage Concealer SPF 30, the Natural Defense Sheer Line Of Defense Foundation SPF 30, and the Perfect Matcha 3-in-1 Beauty Water. The full review for these products is coming up this month!


9. Merkaela Essentials Summer 2020 Box- I reached out to Merkaela for my upcoming 2020 Holiday Gift Guide, and they were kind enough to send me their Essentials Summer 2020 Box. I haven't unboxed this yet, so I don't actually know what's inside! I will be unboxing this on my IG page in November, so go check the page out.


10. Pumpkin & Spice Facial Scrub- If you don't know me, I am obsessed with pumpkin spice everything in the fall. Of course, I just had to reach out to this new skincare brand called Pumpkin & Spice! They asked me to pick a product to review, and I decided to choose the scrub. I have a review up on my IG page, but spoiler alert, I love it so much!


11. Hemp Crate Furry Friends Starter Box- So I reached out to Hemp Crate because I wanted to include them in my 2020 Holiday Gift Guide. Unfortunately, they sent me the Furry Friends box and not the regular box. In addition, they sent me the dog version when I told them that I have a cat. I'm not sure what to do with all the dog products, but at least they included some CBD products for humans too! 


12. Kin of My Skin White Truffle Sheet Masks- This is another new skincare brand that reached out to me last month. They sent over a box of their new White Truffle sheet masks, and I actually tried one already. The mask was pretty nice, and it felt very luxe. My full review will be coming soon!


13. Baby Face Diary September 2020 Box- I reached out to Baby Face Diary because I wanted to include them in my 2020 Holiday Gift Guide. They were kind enough to send me the September 2020 Mystery Fun Box (bag). I loved their theme of the month, and you can check out my unboxing on Instagram.


14. Toi:L PR Package- Another new brand that reached out to me. They sent me two products, a box of their Extra Silky Foot Mask Gloves and their Extra Silky Hand Mask Gloves. I am really excited to try these. I used to use foot and hand masks all the time, but I sadly haven't had any in my skincare stash for the last few years. These look very promising and the packaging is super cute!


15. Loops Double Take Sheet Mask Set- I received these masks via Octoly. I applied to the campaign and received a box (bag) of the Double Take sheet masks and one sample of the Lip mask. The masks are very high quality but cost as much as the mid-range masks. I am overall very impressed with these, and the bag that comes with them is adorable.


16. Morganna Serum Set- I was sent these to review via Tomoson. I was sent these three serums to test out from Morganna's Alchemy. I love natural skincare, so I thought I would give these a chance. I was sent the Lemon Drops Serum, the Illuminate Pea Peptides Serum, and the Water Drops Serum. I actually really like these serums, and I can't wait to review them for you. Follow me on Instagram for my first review that's coming this week.


17. Herbal Face Food PR Package- This brand reached out to me and sent me a few of their products. They sent over the book that the CEO of the brand wrote; The Self Health Revolution. They also sent over two of their herbal serums, the Serum I and The Cure. These two are very potent, but they are made with the most amazing ingredients! I can't wait to share this brand with you, they are truly remarkable. 


18. Dermafirm PR Package- As part of my ever-loving relationship with DermaFirm, they kindly sent over some products for my husband and toddler. They sent the Bio Eye Defense, the Sun Defense Fluid, and the Infinite Fluid for Homme. The eye cream and moisturizer are for my husband, and the sunscreen was sent for my toddler. They haven't tried these yet, but I will be updating you soon!


19. Avajar Elasticity A-Solution Masks- I was sent these masks via 08L. Of course, I apply to every sheet mask campaign that I see. I love sheet masks! I was sent the Elasticity A-Solution Masks and they are amazing. I love how soaked they are, and my skin looked radiant after one use! I definitely recommend these. 


20. Managerine Sampler Box- I reached out to the Managerine Subscription Box to see if they wanted to be included in my 2020 Holiday Gift Guide. They kindly sent over a sampler box, and I love everything they included! I am honestly impressed with this box, and I can't wait to write my full review. If you know any female managers or Boss Babes, you need to get them a subscription to this box!


>>Final Thoughts<<

This post took a lot longer to write than I anticipated! I guess I didn't realize how many products were sent to me last month before I started...
