Was excited to try this 15g stick of RiRe Collagen Ampoule Stick but ended up having to throw out it out because it sucked :(

First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream Part II
After many a jar and tube of the original First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream, I was happy to have received a 56.7g/2oz. tube of the scented version, Sugar Plum, from a generous Mystery GWP promotion they ran in Oct 2022. Yes, it took me this long to use up the tube and post about it :(

Laggie Clay Moist Shampoo & Moist Hair Pack
I picked up this pair of Laggie Clay Moist Shampoo & Moist Hair Pack, 400mL/14.1fl. oz. each, on Julia's recommendation (Thanks, Julia!), as I was looking for something different and new, and I've never heard of this brand before.

Chicca Mesmeric Wet Lip Oil
Here's a super belated post for Chicca Mesmeric Wet Lip Oil--it was buried deep in my draft folder. This brand has been long discontinued, and this product has been discontinued for even looooooonger, and long forgotten too because it was been in my bag for years until I did a clean-out recently and found it. I did use it quite often when I first got it, but then forgot about it months later. By the time I found it again, it had gone stale and was tossed.

Paul & Joe Gel Blush
Paul & Joe first released the Gel Blush, I believe, in the spring of 2021 as limited edition. They became popular enough that they were brought back as part of the permanent lineup a year or so later. I didn't try the limited edition ones but did pick up two colors from the permanent lineup: 01 Red Balloon and 05 Sommeliere.
