Hi everyone, another empties post today! Shock horror this one doesn’t contain
a dry shampoo!
Skincare
Eucerin DermatoClean 3 in 1 Micellar
Cleansing Fluid
I got this free with a purchase in Boots quite a while ago and only
recently finished it. I used this as a first cleanse and found it pretty effective
at getting a layer of my makeup off ready for me to go in with a balm or oil
cleanser after! It’s dearer than other micellar waters so I probably wouldn’t repurchase
as it’s not a necessary part of my routine!
Garnier Express 2 in 1 Eye Makeup
Remover
There are probably five products I can guarantee at least one of being
in my empties each time I do them and this is one of them! I won’t bore you
because this eye makeup remover crops up loads as it’s my favourite and I use
it daily! In short, it’s gentle and effective on waterproof makeup and if you
want you can read more about it here!
Aurelia Miracle Cleanser
I included this recently in my Thinking Pink beauty products post and I
really liked it! I prefer balm over cream cleansers but the scent is so
refreshing and it worked so well as my second cleanse! I got this in a GWP but
the full size is too expensive for me to repurchase especially when I have
other cleansers I need to get through first! The scent also reminds me of Liz
Earle's Cleanse and Polish. I do really want to try more products from Aurelia
at some stage, has anyone tried the oil?
Glam Glow Supermud Clearing Treatment
I think I got this in a beauty box ages ago so finally got round to
using it up recently and I really liked it! I can see why people spend the
money on it! I was surprised by how many uses I got out of this with about
three full faces then maybe one use just on my T zone! I probably wouldn’t
repurchase as it's too expensive and I like my Origins Active Improvement mask
just as much!
Cult 51 Immediate Effects Serum*
I was sent a few of these sachets to try and I absolutely loved them!
The last sachet was included in my last empties post but in short it is a
lovely gel like serum that reduced the white bumps I get under my eyes and made
my eye are feel so soft! The full size is so expensive and I think this is targeted
towards people with more signs of aging but it’s something I will definitely be
looking back into in the future of I need more help with antiaging! These
sachets lasted for ages too!
Bodycare
Soap and Glory Clean on Me Shower Gel
This is one of my absolute favourite shower gels, it smells amazing,
lathers up well and leaves my skin feeling super clean and soft! It’s really
affordable too and I always have a backup ready to go! I included it in a post
recently here!
Soap and Glory The Scrub of Your Life
This is probably my favourite scrub after Pulp Friction, it smells
amazing, lathers well and leaves my skin feeling so soft as well as doing a
great job of removing my tan! Would repurchase!
Soap and Glory Hand Food Hand Cream
This is a lovely hand cream and I love the mini size as it fits
perfectly in my handbag! It sinks in to my hands quickly, smells amazing and
keeps my hands hydrated for a long time! I always seem to have about 10 of
these as backups so already have one ready to go!
Botanics All Bright Fast Absorbing Hand
Cream
This is a really light refreshing hand cream that moisturised my hands
well! I think I got it on offer too so even better! I would repurchase if I
didn’t have a ridiculous amount of hand cream to get through first and to be
honest I’m trying to get through what I already have so I can repurchase my
absolute favourite Nivea Smooth Nourishing Hand Cream!
Nivea Soft Moisturising Cream
Another old favourite of mine this is so refreshing and light and
smells amazing as well as doing a brilliant job of moisturising my body! It
sinks in quickly and I always have a backup!
Makeup
Estee Lauder Double Wear in 2N1 Desert
Beige
I spoke about this last month in my Don’t be Blue post and professed my
love for it! It really is my favourite foundation; you just can’t beat the
coverage it gives or the lasting power and mattifiying properties! I know it’s
not for everyone but it is definitely for me and I had a backup sitting ready
to go and will always have this in my stash!
Revlon Colourstay Foundation in Buff
Another product that gets a mention almost every empty post! This is my
favourite daytime foundation because it has a great colour match for my usually
pale skin, its full coverage, and long-lasting and although it’s not the
cheapest drugstore foundation there is, it’s a lot cheaper than my beloved
Double Wear! Already repurchased and using! Oh and it now comes with a pump! Features
in this post!
Charlotte Tilbury Magic Foundation in 2
Fair
I picked this as one of my samples with my recent CT order and managed
to get two uses out of it. I really liked the coverage it gave and the finish and
found it to be quite long-lasting! The shade 2 was a great shade match for me
when I have no tan on and I think I will definitely purchase this when I finish
up a few foundations!
Haircare
Garnier Ultimate Blends The Strength
Restorer Conditioner*
I’m so happy to finally be finished this conditioner! It made my hair
feel softer but I got a bit sick of the smell and prefer lighter, fruitier
scents to wash and conditioner my hair with! This bottle did last ages though
and it’s really affordable! I have a full review of it here but I probably
wouldn’t repurchase!
Dove Oxygen Moisture Root Lift Spray
I bought this because of blogger hype and while I liked it and the
scent it has, I didn’t notice a difference with volume! This is not unusual for
me as I have long hair and I straighten it daily so it probably does work well
for others! What’s most important to me like I’ve said before about these type
of sprays is that they don’t weigh my hair down even more or make it greasy and
this does well on both counts! Again, I have quite the collection of volume
promising products to get through so this won’t be a product I repurchase
straight away but I can see myself getting it again in the future!
Mark Hill Turn up the Heat Protection
Spray
This was a mini I think I got free with another purchase in Boots ages
ago and as with all hair products I am happy I finished it! I can never tell if
these heat protectant sprays work as I straighten my hair daily and I can never
keep up with my split ends but I feel better for using this and it didn’t weigh
my hair down! I find I get so bored using full size bottles of products like
this so will definitely try and purchase a smaller bottle like this again but
it won’t be anytime soon as I feel I could open a shop with the full and half
full bottles of heat protectants I have!
Miscellaneous
OSHUNWhite Spearmint Oil Pulling Kit
I was lucky enough to win these in a giveaway over on Sally’s blog and
really like how they come individually packaged so you know exactly how much
you should be swirling! I didn’t find the spearmint taste that strong
unfortunately and fourteen days probably isn’t a long enough time to see any benefits
so I’m not sure if it was a placebo effect but my mouth did feel cleaner and my
teeth were starting to look whiter. These are so expensive to buy though so I
would not repurchase but I do want to get some coconut oil to keep up with the
oil pulling!
Have you finished up any products recently? Will you be repurchasing
them?
