Hi, girls!
Believe it or not, I've got empties again and I don't know how I managed to finish so many products in only 2 months since my last empties post. I'm sooo proud of myself! Ok, some of these are expired and really old products that needed to be thrown but they still counts, don't they?
First of all, makeup products!
- L'Oreal Matte Morphose Souffle Foundation #200 Apricot Beige - Those who read me know that this is one of my favorite foundation, I already opened a new one. It's a mousse type foundation, very light and natural looking, it's not cakey or erase-like matte foundation. I love it!
- Rimmel London Wake Me Up Foundation #003 True Ivory - I have been trying to finish it for some time and I finally did. I won't say much because I have a review coming up, but I loved it a lot, it made me look dewy and glowing but not shiny because of my oily skin, which is a first for me as I run from all dewy face stuff.
- Garnier BB Cream Miracle Skin Perfector Daily 5-in-1 Moisturizer #Medium - I had this for a while since the version for oily skin wasn't on the market. For me it was OK though it made me a little oily throughout the day, maybe just a little too heavy texture for a BB Cream. I much prefer the version for oily to combo skin.
- Oriflame Beauty Absolute Concelear For Eyes #Gold - Again, I had this for a while and I didn't exactly enjoyed it so it expired. I don't have big dark circles, but I felt this concealer had no cover power, it was too watery and runny and it had too much shimmer for an undereye concelear. I mean it brightened a little my undereye area, but my dark circles were very much visible.
- Avon Stick Concealer - All the writting on this one is completely erased so I have no idea how this is called or what shade I had. But I really liked it, it was very creamy adn blendable and the cover power was pretty amazing.
- Avon Arabian Glow Bronzing Pearls - These are by no mean finished, but I had them for a really long time, so it's time to say goodbye. I really like them for a soft glowy bronze or even for contouring my face very lightly as they weren't very intense.
- ELF Cream Eyeliner #Coffee and Black - After many attempts to revive them, they become a mess so I have to throw them away. I wrote a review for them back in June, last year, you can check it here.
- Avon Super Shock Max Mascara - This is one af my favorite mascaras from Avon. The brush is similar to Maybelline's Collosal and it gave my poor short lashes lots and lots of volume.
- Rimmel London Lash Accelerator Mascara #Extreme Black - You know by now how much I love this mascara, I love the texture, the brush and it's such an intense black. I already have a new one.
- Oriflame Hollywood Black Lace Eyeliner - This was a special edition, similar with the normal eyeliner stylos from the normal line. I liked it quite a bit, very intense black shade but the tip broke off rather quickly.
- Oriflame Eye Liner Stylo #Brown - Man, I loved this felt tip eyeliner so much I broke its tip. It was the perfect intense brown shade, great for neutral day looks. I would buy it again for sure!
- ELF Wet Gloss Lash & Brow Clear Mascara - I used both ends for holding my eyebrows in place and it really did a heck of a job. Great and very inexpensive!
- Dr. Soleil Hydra Plus 3-in-1 Cleansing Milk - I reviewed it here and I liked it a lot. It cleans the face very good leaving behind a refreshing feeling.
- Nivea Visage Acqua Sensation Invigorating Cleansing Gel - I received it as a gift some time ago and I loved using it in the morning as it was so refreshening. It did dried out a little my cheeks though.
- Nivea Double Effect Eye Makeup Remover - Review here. It was quite efficient, though it did burn out a little my eyes.
- Bioten exfoliating cleanser with honey and apricot seeds - Review here. It was a good face scrub but right now I'm using a more efficient one from Freeman so I won't repurchase it.
- Vichy Normaderm Deep Cleansing Purifying Gel - Review here. You know how much I raved about this cleanser, it's my holly grail, I love it and my boyfriend started using it also. Actually he threw away my last empty bottle by mistake (he doesn't understand why I keep all the junk around the house :)))) ) so therefore I'm putting my current one here for this article's sake.
- Elmiplant Skin Moisture 24 H Cream - This one is a must! So fresh and clean smelling, it's a great moisturizer to use at night or during day. It has no SPF so I have to use it in the morning together with my Paula's Choice Hydralight Shine Free SPF 30 Moisturiser. Actually it's an all-purpose face cream.
- Oriflame Optimals Matte Touch Day Gel Cream - It was a good day cream, it mattified a little but I felt it was not as good at this as I would have liked. I stopped using it as it started to smell different. I'd probably repurchase it for using during winter when I don't need a strong mattifying cream.
- Oriflame Discover Phuket Exotic Paradise Body Scrub - I had this in my bath cabinet for almost an year so I finally got to finish it. It's a nice fruity fresh flavour, with tiny blue and yellow exfolianting beads. I look forward to repurchase it again!
- Nivea In-Shower Body Milk Almond Oil - I already restocked with the new Shea Butter version so that's one sign I really love them. Such a great invention for lazy gals such as myself!
- Yves Rocher Jardins du Monde Brazilian Coffee Beans Shower Cream - I know everyody raves about this shower gel, how nice it smells, how moisturing it is etc., but I was not really impressed. Yes, it smells just like grounded coffee, very strongly I might add, but for me it's just too much, it's too sweet. I might try some other flavours but this one for me is a pass.
- My Body Ocean Salt Peeling Magnolia - Very inexpensive but so very much proficient. It did a great job scrubing all dead cells and leaving the skin so smooth and refreshed. I will definitely repurchase it again.
- Garnier Mineral Invisible 48 Hr Roll On Deodorant - I love Garnier deodorants, but this one didn't quite did it for me as it didn't last properly all day as I've expected.
- Lady Speed Stick Stainguard Deodorant - every Empties I do contains at least one of these deodorants as I love them a lot. It keeps me dry all day long and the perfume is subtle but sooo long lasting.
- Thai Spa Cocoa Body Scrub - Review here. Me+cocoa butter=LOVE, so you can imagine how much I enjoyed this little guy here! It smells divine and it looks just like brown sugar frosting.
- Gioia Hotel Cedarwood Shower Gel - This is a wash gel small size that I've took from a hotel in Firenze, Italia and I recently found in an old bag :)). So I had to try it and it smells soo good, like cedarwood, cinnamon and vanilla. I wish I could buy this somewhere, but sadly that's impossible:(!
- Wella Professionals Calm Sensitive Shampoo - Review here. Last week I was writting about this shampoo and now it's done. For the moment, I won't repurchase it as I started a new shampoo from Nature's Gate, but I liked it nontheless.
- Balea Repair + Phlege Express Oil Hair Treatment - I'm loving these one-application hair treatments from Balea, there are so intense and really makes a difference. This one smoothens my hair and it makes it look healthy and shiny. And no split ends in sight!
- Byphase Makeup Removing Wipes with almond oil - Those used to be my favorites before trying out the ones from Balea. I still like them, they are very efficient and nice smelling. Maybe a little too dry.
- Septona Makeup Removing Wipes with chamomile - These are so wet and great for a quick brush cleaning in the mornings! I don't use them on the face but they smell really nice.
- Makeup Removing Cotton Pads : Cora, Care, Ebelin and random ones - I go through these like nobody's business, they are a necessity. The one's from Cora are great, I already restock on them.
- Balea Bademomente Orange Bath Salt - You know I love these bath salts from Balea and this orange flavoured one was no exception. Great one!
Love at first brush
