June Empties 2015



June Empties

It's that time for another empties post. Here are all the things that i have used up and i'll give you the low down on what i think about these products. 


Baremineral's Mineral Veil - 9g - £20.00 - I was shocked i even came to the end of this as this finishing powder never seems to end. However i do really love this and it pairs extremely well with the original foundation. My foundation stays on all day and looks flawless. Even though this is a mineral powder, it doesn't look cakey on the skin. I have already repurchased this.


Benefit - They're Real Mascara - £19.50 - I have really fallen out of love with this mascara and i really hope it takes a fall from grace this year as there are so many better mascara's out there. This mascara dries up so quickly, it clumps to hell and is just a horror to get off. 


REDKEN - Smooth Lock Shampoo - £13.80 - I adore this shampoo and i have repurchased this straight away. It makes my hair look and feel amazing. I also love the almond smell of it. I love anything that has heat protectant in it and this is a sure winner. 


Vichy Derco Shampoo for Sensitive Skin - £5.66 - For a good value shampoo, this is really excellent and a great balance for a high quality shampoo. This really cleans your hair and helps get rid of any dandruff that is in the hair. 


Sisley Black Rose Mask  - Sample Size - I can't deny, this mask was amazing, the sample size was such a teaser for the really expensive mask. I can't say it is worth the price but this little sample was a wonderful treat.

Rituals Fortune Scrub - £10.00 - I adore this scrub and finishing another of these was a pleasure. My back has never been cleaner. I already have a back up so and i'm already using it. The scene is so relaxing. 


Caudlie Beauty Elixir - £11.20 - I do love this as a little treat and another bottle has come to an end. I really love the smell and the way this feels on my skin. However i won't be buying a back up anytime soon. I am looking to try other sprays. 


Impulse tease - £1.99 - This is a easy peasy quick pick me up when you don't feel so fresh. Great to keep in your bag to get out when you most need it. I do like the scent but i think i will be moving back to perfumes to keep me smelling great as i don't feel this lasts very long. 



Sanex Pro Hydrate Shower Gel - £3.19 - Cheap, lasts a long time and is great on my dry skin, i really cannot fault this. I love a good shower cream as opposed to Gel and this one sits on top of my list. I cannot deal with all the fragrance'd shower gels so this one really keeps that at bay from irritation.

Empties - Jan 2015

As part of my new years resolutions, i have decided that i really need to finish and use products up (Which as a blogger, skincare and make up lover is not an easy task) after discovering my extensive collection. So here are all of my empties for the month of January.



Aussie Take The Heat Shampoo - I decided to go back to this after my hair got used to a few shampoo's and i can't say i am as impressed as i was the first time i used it. I mean is may protect my hair but my hair still feels really dry after using it, even with conditioner. I might try it again but use a different alternative shampoo to use alongside it and also a different conditioner. 


Boots Botanics Shine Away Ionic Clay Mask - I picked this up after trying the Una Brennan Green Tea face mask which has since been discontinued, which now after using this i wasn't as impressed with, maybe that's why it is no longer avaliable. This really helps to clear my skin and draw out the nasties. I will definitely be repurchasing this mask, however i really want to try one of the new Superfacialist Anti Blemish Mask and is next on my list. 


Caudalie Beauty Elixir - I am always sad to see when this comes to an end, this one of the best facial water sprays there is. I love the smell and the way it makes my skin look and feel. I already have a back up of this and i will also be trying out the La Roche' Posay Serozinc which is next on my list. 


Emma Hardie Amazing Face Cleansing Balm - Oh this made me cry, this is one of my all time favourite products and it is gone. I do have a back up which i luckily got got christmas, but i will be using the Clinique Take the Day Off Cleansing Balm to see what i think and see if this can be my cost cutting alternative. This really gets all the make up of my face and makes my skin smell and feel like a dream.


Sanex Dermo Sensitive shower cream - I have never been a lover of shower gels and this shower cream really ticks all the boxes, it was really soft on my skin and did not irritate it one bit. The only thing is i got so tired of the smell. I have already purchased two different types of the Sanex shower cream,  to see what the differences and if i prefer those to this one. I am sure they will be featuring in an empties so i will let you know how i get on with those.


Soap and Glory Scrubatomic - I know, you really can barely even tell what this is and the pink has completely faded from the packaging. This scrub was for me a great scrub in summer, but i can't say this has thrilled me into the winter. I am looking for a new scrub, any recommendations i would really love to hear any suggestions i the comments below :). 


Yes to Cucumber Daily Gel Cleanser - I think from my disappointing products of 2014  post you will know how much i loathe this cleanser. I will never repurchase this and i am glad this is finished and out of my life. I am currently enjoying the Avene Extremely Gentle Cleanser at the moment which is miles and miles better than this.  


And those are my empties for the month of January. If you have any recommendations please let me know in the comments below, I would love to hear your suggestions.
