Sephora Brush It Off Cleansing Brush Wipes Review

I have been seeing a lot of people talking about brush cleaning wipes so I was curious to try them out. I found these ones on the Sephora website. They were on sale for $3 a box. Each box contains 6 wipes. They do not have any real scent. 
This is one of my brushes that I had cleaned previously. I didn't have any dirty brushes when I got these in the mail as I had just washed them the night before so I got this brush dirty just for this review. 
After I got this brush dirty I opened up the wipe. They were just the right amount of wetness but it was very greasy! Be careful where you set the wipe down at. It took me just about a whole wipe to clean my brush. It only took seconds to clean though. 
As you can see in the next picture the brush came clean but still seems dingy to me. 
I would definitely use these for travel or a quick clean up. I think I'll stick to soap and water for regular cleaning of my brushes.

Aquaphor Lip Repair + Protect Review


This retails for around $4. I purchased mine at Ulta. 
I tend to get really dry lips in the winter so I'm always looking for a good lip product. I've just been using the Aquaphor Healing Ointnent at bedtime and it works great so I was really excited to try this Lip Repair. 
I'm quiet torn on my opinion of it though. It works pretty good at keeping my lips moisturized but it has an awful sunscreen taste. 
Would I repurchase this? Probably not. I think there are products just as good without the weird aftertaste. 
Will I continue to use the one I have? I might if I am going to be outside a lot in the cold air but otherwise I will stick to my usual lip balm. As I did not notice any big difference between the two.
