Empties! June 2015
So empties! I have some things I've mentioned in try again thursdays and some other things.
I finished up a whole simple moisturizing cleanser... you know I may have mentioned this already lol... I bought a back up of it... but then I found a cleanser that I liked more in a sample and I got a full size of that too... so I think I'll try using one in the morning one at night... and yeah. It is similar to the Purity Face Cleanser... but I noticed a huge difference when I switched to purity so... yeah.
Speaking of Purity... I have a whole mini size of the Purity Cleanser. I love this. I didn't think I would, I almost didn't even pick up the free sample at Sephora... so glad I did! I've discovered so many awesome things for my skin just by that one sample! Lol. I already have a full size of this.
I also finished up 2 triple moisture body creams from Bath and Body Works. One was in Moonlight Path and it smells really nice and clean and lovely... I probably won't repurchase this... I have a ton and I don't think this is even in their permanent line anymore... lol. Idk. I would get a mini size of the lotion maybe... but I think I have one somewhere? Idk. Lol this is good basically is all I need to say.
And I finished Up a Forever Midnight Body Cream. I've had these for forever because I got 3 when they were on sale for $8. They are like the most luxurious feeling lotions, but they are quite fragrant... so its like "woahhh I smell like I dumped a bottle of perfume on myself" I still have one full size left. I think this has been discontinued... so I can't repurchase this any time soon... but if it is on sale again for $8 or something I would definitely pick it up again!
I finished another Nivea in shower body conditioner... this was awesome. I love it. I've already repurchased a third one.
I finished a Queen Helene Oatmeal scrub... Idk when I finished it... but it was a long time ago and I just threw it out. I think it was okay, it was very scrubby but not too harsh. I didn't love it and I like my Garnier Charcoal one a lot, so I probably won't repurchase.
I kind of finished up a mini size of the Tarte Maricuja oil. I was down at the bottom, so I just poured it into my full sized version that I got on sale. I already have repurchased this because it was on sale... I love this stuff. It works really well.
I finished my Caress Adore Forever Shower Gel. Loveddd this stuff! It smells so pretty and it doesn't have all the crazy claims of incredible lasting power or anything... but it feels pretty luxurious for such an inexpensive shower gel and I really like that! I will definitely repurchase this sometime... I have a lot of shower gels that I want to use up first though!
Also finished my Whish Almond Shower Gel. Loved this also! I love the smell of Almond anything and this is kind of the best!
And I'm pretty much done with the Bath and Body Works Body Butter in A Thousand Wishes... I have mixed feelings about this product, so I probably wouldn't repurchase it. Its an amazing moisturizer, it really hydrates well and it smells really good and it works very very well. My only issue with it is that in the shower, the scent bothered me a little, so I couldn't use it while I was in the shower because it made me sneeze... and I didn't use it up as quickly for that reason. Other than that it did work really well out of the shower and I liked using it before bed... especially since I shower in the morning now, but I still like to feel clean at night. So I would repurchase other Body Butters from Bath and Body Works, especially when they're on sale... they are so cheap! I just probably wouldn't pick this scent again.
I just finished my Philosophy Hope in a Jar sample. I really liked this, but not enough to buy a full size yet cause I think these are expensive... I may ask for a sample next time I'm at Sephora. I feel like I look a lot older than I did when I started using it and that bums me out. Lol.
I finished a Banana Boat Aloe After Sun Spray Gel. I think this helped my sunburn feel a little better... but sometimes I think anything kind of cooling would probably work in a spray form... either way I think this was good. It lasted a while too! We used to have a cream at my house and this spray and I think we used the cream up first. I'll definitely repurchase some form of Aloe... idk if they make this spray any more... but some aloe in a spray form. I think the news said Up and Up is actually the way to go with Aloe... so I'll probably just get it from target!
I finished one of my Minion Shower Gels. This is strawberry banana scented and it is adorable! I have a back up... but I would definitely repurchase! And somehow I feel like people will stock me up with these for bdays and christmases and all holidays. Lol.
I finished probably a few shaving creams... maybe not... lol I definitely finished an eos Pomegranate Raspberry shaving cream. Love this stuff. Not my favorite but it works and its good!
I've got like one use left of a couple shower gels. One is the Ulta Shower Smoothie in Easter Eggs. I love this. Its a little travel size, so I brought it to Atlantic City and once to the beach. I'm probably going to buy some more travel sizes of these to bring to the gym and stuff... cause I plan on joining a gym in the near future... unfortunately they don't have this scent anymore... but I'd definitely buy it next year. My sister got me this one and it was really good. I love Ulta's shower smoothies.
And I've got one or 2 more uses of the Bath and Body Works Waikiki Shower Gel. This is in their semi annual sale... so if you like it, snatch it now while its on sale. After using the Almond Shower Gel and the Caress Shower gel... I don't feel like these last quite as long... but they're still pretty good and when they're on sale and you have coupons... the price is really good. I may get more of this and some other shower gels during the sale. I'd repurchase this next year though for sure!
I finished a Not Your Mothers Beach Babe Hair Cream... this stuff is good. If you use this alone, it can be a bit drying on the hair... but if you combine it with moisturizing leave in products and stuff like that... it should be fine.
I'm pretty much done with 2 nail polishes... one is kind of a sad story... well I guess they're both sad stories.
I'm almost done with Flowerista by Essie... which I know what your thinking... this is a new color... How am I almost done with it already? It spilled cause I'm a dummy and I left it open overnight... so yeah. It got everywhere and that sucked.
Even Sadder, I'm even more done with my favorite color from OPI Designer De Better. This is from their muppet collection for the first of the newer Muppet Movies. I'm really sad about this. It was such a pretty rose gold color, but there were like silver and red shimmers in it. It looked really great for Christmas... but of corse I rocked it all year long... its so sad that this one is limited edition its my favorite nail polish of all time. If I see it on sale or something... I'd probably buy it just to have the color in my collection so I can kind of compare colors with it. Even if its old and I can't use it anymore... which I would doubt because the formula of mine stayed very consistent through all the time I had it... but I could see it going bad or something, but I'd want it to compare other colors to because... I want to find an exact match. Lol. Don't think I'll find it ever... but I'm a nail polish junkie... so yeah. And I love the Muppets. Lol.
I finished one of the Batiste Travel Sized Dry Shampoos I got in a set... I think the name was Mamba... not sure. This scent was an exclusive scent to the little travel sized dry shampoo set... but I think its something they'll bring back around winter time, and its a good deal. I don't use Dry Shampoo all the time, but I like having travel sizes for my purse or something like that sometimes. Travel. The Gym. All useful places to have dry shampoo. This scent is really good so I'd try the scent if I could find it again lol. I'd buy the travel sizes again too, it was a pretty good deal and I like Batiste and their travel sized stuff.
I think thats it... I may do empties just in one post at a time. I'm trying to use samples and post about them when I finish them... and I will likely just do some posts that are Bonus Posts about empty products that I have... so yeah!
Byeeee!
