I know that sounds obvious but I got into a bad wasteful habit of starting something, using it a bit & then moving onto the next product. My bathroom cupboards were overspilling with half empty items. Now I really try and use something up before moving on, It's a really satisfying actually finishing something all up completely.
For anyone that's not too familiar, empties posts are simply the products you've used up, meaning you can give a pretty decent opinion on the items. So, let's jump right in. Here are the products I've used up over the past month or so and my thoughts!!
Body
Champneys 'Blissful Bump Body Butter' - £10
I had this towards the end of my pregnancy but just didn't use very much. It was nice but I didn't love it, probably because I wasn't a big fan of the smell. I wouldn't say it's a must have pregnancy product.
Lush 'Lovely Jubblies Breast Cream' - £16.95
Another product I got at the very end of my pregnancy but just didn't finish until now. Love this super moisturising cream, will repurchase for sure. Smells great, feels even better.
Soap & Glory 'Sugar Crush Body Scrub' - £8 in a trio
This stuff smells incredible! It's a beautiful scrub that's just on the right side of scrubby. Packed with brown sugar, sweet lime, almond oil and macadamia grains I enjoyed this and would happily pick up the full sized one next time.
Champneys 'Spa Indulgence Mediterranean Bliss Bubble Heaven' - £14 in a gift set
Another so-so Champneys' product. Yes it was nice but I wouldn't rush to buy it again. It contains olive leaf, fig milk & green tomato. Not my favourite bubble bath combination!
I love....'Coconut & Cream Bubble Bath & Shower Creme' - £3
I wouldn't normally include one of the shower gels I had used up but I couldn't leave this beauty out. I love coconut so for me this ticked a major yummy box. Actually a really lovely product for its very affordable price. I've already stocked up with another plus the hand soap in the same scent.
Soap & Glory Hand Wash - £5
Classic Soap & Glory scent, a really unmistakable smell. Lovely product. This came in a set with the Hand Food cream which I'm still working my way through.
Face/Skincare
SkinCeuticals 'Phlotetin CF Gel' - £119
I got this in my local beauty salon. This lightweight antioxidant serum gel is packed full of vitamin C. A really really beautiful product but on the pricey side. I would repurchase but I'm trying a few other similar products right now.
Simple 'Kind To Eyes Eye Makeup Remover' - £3.49
This was in my last empties and will probably be in my next. A great product at a fab price. Removes eye makeup easily and never stings.
Garnier 'Fresh Clarifying Face Wash' - £3.60
It was a struggle to finish this, it was nice but not something I'd use again. Very fresh feeling but felt a little drying. Not ideal for my skin type.
Lush 'Let The Good Times Roll Face & Body Cleanser' - £6.75
I absolutely loved this. It smelt good enough to eat. I found it a little too abrasive to use everyday on my face but for once or twice a week it's perfect. Another product I'll definitely repurchase.
Lush 'Brazened Honey Fresh Face Mask' - £6.50
I really like the fresh face masks from Lush, this one left my skin plump and moisturised. The only downside is because you have to keep it in the fridge I kept on forgetting I had it. I would buy another fresh mask but will give a different one a go next time.
Makeup
bareMinerals 'Perfect Light Mineral Veil' - £20
One of my all time setting powders. Gives your makeup a lovely lightweight airbrushed finish. Perfect for touch-ups through the day too. Have already repurchased it.
MAC 'Dazzleglass Lipgloss in Like Venus' -£17.50
This is really old, I found it in the bottom of a bag I hadn't touched for ages. I'm pleased I rediscovered it as I'm now reminded what a great lipgloss it is, super long wearing. Once I've used up a few others in my collection I would absolutely buy another.
Hair
Aussie Miracle Dry Shampoo - £2.29
I love me some dry shampoo. It seems like every drugstore brand is releasing their version which is great. This one smelt good, was clear which is a dry shampoo must for me, & did the job. Would happily repurchase.
So, those were my recent Empties, a real mixture and a lot I would repurchase. Read my last empties post here.
I'm off to use up some more goodies!
