Empties | September 2018

I love a good empties! I find finishing products so satisfying! And, for the first time, the number this month has reduced… maybe due to me being excessively busy at work and so not really in the mood for excessive skincare, but maybe just because I physically couldn’t finish the excessive number I was finishing month on month.

Provoke Touch of Silver Brightening Shampoo | When I dyed my hair blonde over two years ago now, I had to invest in something to counteract the brasiness. Now this is no miracle worker, but it does do a good job and if used regularly, it does help maintain that more natural blonde look.

Real Chemistry Environmental Rescue Essential Day Cream | Despite this being a pouch, it lasted a surprisingly long time and I really enjoyed using this stuff!

Rituals The Ritual of Happy Buddha Happy Foaming Shower Gel | I love how this has happy in the name of the product… however, it hasn’t really changed my opinion on foaming shower gels. Smells amazing, just wished it was a normal gel.

Body Shop Strawberry Shower Gel | Speaking of shower gels, these from the Body Shop are my absolute favourite! And the Strawberry scent is amazing!

Simple Micellar Water (and Water Boost) | So I’ve finished a full size of the original and a mini of the water boost (which I really didn’t feel was much different). I’ve finished at least 15 of these over the years, because they’re easy, they’re simple (ha!) and they just work!

Elemis Superfood Facial Wash | I absolutely loved this one! I feel like I need to try more from this brand!

Sure Cotton Dry Anti-Perspirant | I mean, can I say anything more about this other than it works…?

Body Shop Vitamin E Gentle Facial Wash | I was not the biggest fan of this. I like facial washes that soap up a little on the skin, and this one is more of a cream formula…

Kerastase Reflection Rain Chromatique Shampoo | I mean this was fine… but it wasn’t anything super impressive.

Pink Selfie Skin Coconut Oil Nourishing Sheet Mask | I actually quite like this! It did feel super nourishing on the skin and the packaging is cute.. not that that really matters

Caudalie Vinosource Moisturising Sorbet | I have finished many of these samples over the years. It’s a great light moisturiser! Great for wearing under makeup

Herbel Essences Beautiful Ends Shampoo and Conditioner | I literally love the HE shampoos and conditioners! They’re by far my favourite! And I always go back to them!

Mudmasky Sleep Repair Nourishing Mask | This felt really thick and luxurious on the skin and I would definitely be intrigued to get it again!

Boots Botanics Cleansing Toner | This was a really nice basic toner, it felt super refreshing… but I’m not convinced on it’s actual toning quality

Superdrug Vitamin E Eye Cream | This is my go to eye cream! It’s affordable, lightweight, and leaves my under eyes looking refreshed

Molton Brown Gingerlily Shower Gel | There’s a reason why this is a luxury brand! This shower gels feels so heavenly! I love receiving these samples!

Garnier Micellar Water | If I’m not using the Simple Micellar Water, I’m using this one! They both work so well at removing makeup!

Colgate Total Original Care Toothpaste | Another product that just works…

Garnier SkinActive Moisture Bomb Tissue Mask | Another great sheet mask that leaves your skin feeling super soft and moisturised!

Sanctary Spa Body Wash | I really didn’t like this! I felt like you had to use a lot of product to make it foam up.

Balance Me Pure Skin Face Wash | Another great face wash! Think I preferred the Elemis one, but this was still a great product!

Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye | This felt super thick and luxurious! I actually really enjoyed using it! I’ve never tried anything from the Advanced Night Repair range, and I would love the explore more!

Bourjois Volume Reveal Mascara | The only makeup empty of the month… I feel like I’ve been slacking! However, this is a great mascara, a really good all rounder and I would definitely repurchase!

What products have you finished this month?
