Product Empties September 2015



Aveeno Active Naturals Positively Smooth Shave Gel with Soy Extracts - This was an OK shaving gel but the bottom of the container rusted and left a ring in my tub which I was not impressed with. I don't think I will repurchase this for that reason

Lancome Bi-Facil Double-Action Eye Makeup Remover - This was a great eye makeup removed. I got these tiny samples from Sephora by redeeming some of my points. I am trying a new eye makeup removed but I don't know if it works as good as this one

Fresh Rose Hydrating Eye Gel Cream - This was my favorite eye cream...that is until I tried the Fresh lotus eye cream. This one is a very light weight eye cream and I wanted something a little bit richer. This really was a great cream and I did enjoy it while it lasted but I wont repurchase, I'll be sticking with the lotus cream (I've already gone through 2 jars)

Fresh Lotus Youth Preserve Face Cream With Super 7 Complex - I've gone through 4 jars of this cream...it's amazing. I have VERY dry skin so I do mix this with a beauty oil and my skin just drinks in the moisture. Highly recommend this face cream!

Cover FX Natural Finish Oil Free Foundation - I know a lot of people love this foundation but it just wasn't my thing. I found this sat on top of my skin and looked like I was wearing makeup, I prefer something more natural looking. I wont be repurchasing this

Neutrogena Healthy Skin Eye Cream - I thought I could cheap out on my skin care and just pick something up from the drugstore....but I really didn't like this eye cream. It was greasy and just sat under my eyes. I had to wipe this off with a tissue before applying my makeup

NeoStrata Intense Anti-Aging Eye Cream Fruit Stem Cells - I got this little baby sample with the purchase of my Neostrata eye lash serum, this was an ok eye cream. I was using it as a night time cream because it was a little greasy. I didn't end up repurchasing it

Josie Maran 100 percent Pure Argan Oil - this is a great oil! I used it for a couple different things (mixing with foundation, on the ends of my hair, on my face, ect) This is such a versatile product the things you can do with this oil is endless and I think therefore makes it worth every penny!

Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara - I know a lot of people love this mascara but it just wasn't for me. This was a little baby sample from Sephora, I used it up but I won't be repurchasing the full size. I didn't find anything amazing or spectacular about the formula or brush...it just seemed like a regular mascara so I'll save my money

Product Empties July 2015

Here is what's in my beauty trash for the month:

Starting on the top row on the left hand side

Bausch+Lomb Biotrue: This is the contact solution and I think this has already bee in an empties. I love this contact solution it was recommend to me by my optometrist, it's the only contact solution I will ever use.

Aveeno Baby wash & shampoo: I use this as a brush cleaner and it has been great. It leaves my brushes clean and soft, I even use this to clean my beauty blender as I am allergic to the beauty blender cleanser.

Neutrogena Wet Skin Sunscreen Spray: I do not like rubbing in sunscreen so I always pick something that you just have to spray on. This sunscreen is great and I love using it when I'm working out and know I'm going to be sweating. I went through a few bottles last year and unfortunately this one isn't empty but it did expire. I have already picked up a replacement for the summer time.

Sephora Triple Action Cleansing Water: I used this with a cotton pad to take off my makeup. I love that is has a pump so you don't waste product. It does a great job at taking off face makeup...but not eye makeup. You do need a second makeup remover just for the eyes. I haven't repurchased a new one because I am trying out some new products but if they don't work out I will be going back to this.

London Drugs Vanilla Bubbling Body Bath: Bubble bahts are my favorite! This was on sale at London Drugs so I picked up a couple. This is great for bath time!

Josie Maran 100% Pure Argan Oil Light: I bought this in a set from Sephora where you got the 100% argan oil and the 100% light argan oil. It was a great value and you got to try both oils. I prefer the regular 100% oil, I will not be repurchasing the light.

got2b volumizing styling powder: I bought this powder in hopes that it would give my hair some volume. This is a white powder that shows up in my brunette hair, it is really messy and gets everywhere! I don't feel its very voluminous...I would not repurchase this product.

Maybelline Great Lash: I was using this for my brows and I thought it was a great product....that was until I tried the Anastasia clear brow gel. I am not going to repurchase this for my brows.

Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye Serum: This is another product I would not repurchase. This is a very light eye serum and I like a heavy eye cream at night. I am trying out a new product and I think I like it better. I will not be repurchasing this serum.

Living Proof Prime Style Extender Spray: I like that this is a spray, I don't like getting a lot of product on my hands. I feel that this is a very gimmicky product. I don't feel it helps my style last longer at all. My hair style lasts the same with or without using the spray.

Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Water-Light Daily Face Sunscreen: Another product that isn't empty but it was expired. I was using this product every day last year during summer. It's a great sunscreen for your face but since this is expired and I need to get rid of it I'm going to experiment with new sunscreens this summer. I may or may not repurchase this depending on what I try.

Bath&Body Works anti-bacterial hand gel: I am someone who keeps hand gel in the purse 24/7. This is a great hand gel because it smells good, great travel size and doesn't dry out your hands too much. I have repurchased these in a few different scents. This sent was warm vanilla sugar....it was a great scent.

Vaseline Lip Therapy: This was a lifesaver in the winter! My lips were so dry this past winter that no lip product was working. This is great if you are having extremely dry and cracked lips. It really saved me, I went through a few of these. Now that it's the summer my lips are as dried so I'm using a different product at the moment but I may go back to this during the winter again, I will have to see how things go.

That's my beauty trash for the month! I hope you enjoyed
