Loved it/bought it since ★★★★ • Good stuff ★★★ • Not for me ★★ • Hated it ★
Juara • Clove Flower & Turmeric Serum • ★★★★
Value, sample (full-size, $62)
Description: This high-performance serum boosts radiance and luminosity, and combats the signs of aging using a powerful combination of turmeric, clove flower, watermelon extract, sea algae, hyaluronic acid, and goji fruit // TO USE: Use day and night on cleansed skin. You should see and feel a noticeable difference after a few uses.
I quite liked this serum and how it left my skin. I’m a big fan of anything with hyaluronic acid in it. I would definitely alternate this with my Lotus Moon Hydrating Vitamin B serum.
Modern Minerals • Tea Rose Finishing Glow • ★★★★
Value, sample (full-size, $20)
Description: Translucent with a delicate pink hue and just a hint of subtle shimmer to help minimize fine lines or flaws. Incredibly light weight. Provides an overall soft focus finish and glow // TO USE: Use alone or over foundation for a flawless finish sheen.
I think you really could use this all over for a glowy look, but I personally love it for center of the eyelid or highlighting. Sorry for the awful pic, it’s kind of a rose gold shimmer.

Mychelle Dermaceuticals • Fruit Enzyme Scrub • ★★★★
Value, $18
Description: Dual skin polishers and dissolving enzymes quickly exfoliate dead skin cell build-up and unwanted debris in pores. Super-smooth Jojoba Beads and refined Bamboo Stem Powder gently polish the skin without irritating or tearing the surface. Fruit Enzymes dissolve dulling residue for ultra-smooth, ultra-soft skin // TO USE: To smooth away dulling debris, apply a thin layer after cleansing and gently polish with fingertips. Leave on 3-5 minutes for enzyme action. Rinse with lukewarm or cool water. Apply mist, serums, and nourishing cream.
This fruit enzyme scrub was a big win for me and it’s a full-size product! The scrub is white and creamy with small granules. This is gentle enough that I can use it several times a week and I absolutely love leaving it on the extra few minutes as suggested. It’s one of those scrubs that almost feels like it couldn’t have worked until you rinse your skin and find it impossibly smooth.

Yarok • Feed Your Shine Hair Serum • ★★★★
Value, $9 (full-size, $27)
Description: Yarok Feed Your Shine drops absorb quickly into the scalp and hair, deeply penetrating, conditioning and bringing out hair’s inner sheen, while contrasting highlights and protecting your hair from the damaging effects of hot styling tools. // TO USE: Apply 1-2 drops to palm of hand, rub palms together, apply to hair before heat styling to add shine. And/or apply after styling for increased style and contrast.
This smaller size of Feed Your Shine came in a sweet 10 ml ‘essential oil’ bottle and contains sesame and coconut oils scented by clary sage, Roman chamomile, and Atlas cedar oils. It smells heavenly and left my hair shiny.
Bonus Item: Feed Your Curls Defining Crème
// Overall value, $37 • Actual cost, $15 //
