April Empties | 2015

As often as I can, I will display my empty products of the month. These are for the month of April. I don’t know about you guys, but I feel like it is one of the most satisfying feelings to actually finish up a product you bought. It sometimes feels like it was worth the money.  I can’t promise doing this series every month, just because empties are a rare thing to me. I am actually really surprised that I was able to finish up six products to the very last drop. Another thing to know about empties is that I will also let you know if I would repurchase the product, now that I am out of it.

List of Products:

Clinique Moisture Surge – Rave review – I have loved Clinique for years because of my sensitive, acne-prone skin in need of an oil-free moisturizer. This beloved product was featured in both my daytime and nighttime routine. This is very potent so a little goes a long way. I have this huge pot and finished it up in a year or so.

Repurchase? Yes, I love every Clinique skincare item I’ve tried, especially their moisturizers.

Tarte Maracuja Oil – Unfortunately, I can’t use this on my face. I either didn’t see a difference or it broke me out. I do love to use this oil by mixing it into any body lotion I feel that is not moisturizing enough. I especially loved using this oil during the winter time when my skin was extremely dry.

Repurchase? I already have a back up given to me by my friend!

Fresh Sugar – Shade: Petal – I love this shade because it is so pretty and natural on the lips. I ended up using this all up and put the rest of the product that was in the bullet into a pot. It felt very moisturizing and soft when applied. I understand that some people do not like this because it breaks off easily, but I have not had a problem with it breaking off. Don’t be too rough! I fell in love with this formula ever since Sephora gave it as a birthday present. The best birthday present from Sephora so far!

Repurchase? Yes, but I would like for it to be in a set of colors. I would love to try all the colors!

The Body Shop Wild Argan Oil Rough Scrub – Review – All of their scrubs smell so good. This is the best scrub to have if your skin is dry. I believe because it is Argan Oil, there are more benefits for your skin in terms of moisture. It has a different texture from the regular scrubs I have tried. It’s not creamy like the coconut scrub. It’s not grainy like the shea scrub. It’s in between, jelly yet rough. I enjoyed it.

Repurchase? No, since we are approaching summer months, I would not need such a moisturizing product. Maybe next winter, I would consider getting it again. I love to try all their body scrubs.

Jo Malone Body and Hand Wash – Scent: English Pear & Freesia – Review – This little bottle lasted a long time and has a great lather. The scent fills your shower and it feels so luxurious.

Repurchase? No, I was lucky enough to win a beauty basket that had a Jo Malone Set which included this product. It’s way too expensive for a body wash, but I did enjoy it a lot!

Alex and Ani Scent 7 Soap – I liked how it was exfoliating and moisturizing at the same time. Created with shea butter and coconut oil, the soap bar had a sweet scent mixed with floral undertones. 

Repurchase? No, this huge bar of soap barely lasted a month! It was shocking how fast it disappeared.
