Volume-wise, December was a little lackluster. However, I'm happy with the amount of makeup I was able to finish off (as opposed to a million little skincare samples).
~ Jesse's Girl liquid liner "Black" - This is a brush-tip liner, which is my preferred application. Not as smooth as my favorite Clinique liner, but it did the job.
~ Anastasia Beverly Hills brow definer "Medium Brown" - I'm not sure if I prefer the thicker pencil or the brow wiz, but I definitely had power brows when I used this one. I'm not opposed to getting another in the future. Honestly, it just depends on which pencils are on sale during the Ulta 21 Days of Beauty.
~ Smashbox Primerizer sample - Okay moisturizer, but not a great primer for my oily skin. Would not purchase.
~ Kat von D Saint perfume sample - Very similar to Marc Jacobs "Daisy" which I already own. I have way too much perfume already, and I no longer purchase from Kat von D, otherwise I would be tempted to purchase this.
~ Kat von D Sinner perfume sample - Very similar to Elizabeth and James "Nirvana Black" which is now sadly discontinued. For similar reasons to "Saint" I won't be purchasing this one either.
~ Buxom lipgloss "White Russian" - I know this is a super-popular shade, but I couldn't get into it. I applied it as a plumping lip balm and enjoyed it that way. I like this gloss formula, but probably wouldn't intentionally repurchase this. In the event I get another little freebie, I'll happily use it up as well.
~ Farmacy Green Screen sunscreen mini - A mineral sunscreen that wears well under makeup, I can get into it. It was a little shiny if I didn't put makeup on, but not enough to deter me from wanting to repurchase this.
~ Tarte loose setting powder - I'm really happy to have used this up since it was my oldest setting powder, and even then it was a destash from a friend. I would use this again, but I don't know if I would seek it out over other setting powders.
~ Youth to the People superfood cleanser - I've used a few samples and deluxe sizes of this, and the cleanser itself is pretty nice. Unfortunately, the container is glass and I've broken it in the shower every time I've tried it. This time I decanted it into a plastic container, and I enjoyed it much more that way.
