November Empties | 2015

Body/bath products always seem to win at Empties Posts. I also have hair, perfume. makeup and skincare empties.

List of Products:
CoverGirl Clump Crusher Mascara – Worn here – Another makeup product finished! This mascara lives up to its name since there were absolutely no clumps in any of my makeup looks. It does not provide length, but it does provide a lot of volume, the kind of volume where the lashes are coated nicely to look thicker instead of clumped together. I enjoyed it.

Repurchase? This was my second tube of this mascara, I don’t see why I wouldn’t get it again.

Batiste Dry Shampoo – Review – I’m not sure what I would do without this hair product. It’s for your second or third day hair; It’s the time it looks its best but just needs help if you tend to have more oily hair. This product instantly absorbs any excess oil and makes the scalp look and feel fresh.

Repurchase? Yes – always

Pantene Classic Clean Daily Shampoo – It took me an extremely long time to finish up this 40 fl. oz. bottle of shampoo. I don’t particularly have a favorite shampoo, but this product did the job to keep my hair healthy. My hair felt clean, smelled good, and was not left greasy, and that’s basically all I ask for in a shampoo.

Repurchase? Yes

St. Ives Fresh Skin Apricot Scrub – Before you think this scrub is way too rough for your face, I agree; I don’t use it for my face. I actually use it as if it is a body scrub. What’s good enough for your face should be even better for your body, right? Since this scrub says it’s for deep exfoliation, it’s perfect to use this on your legs, especially if you shave. This helps prevent those nasty bumps that are a pain to get rid of. I always need a body scrub in my life.

Repurchase? Yes – Excellent scrub for winter.

(Deluxe) Samples:

Balance Me Super Toning Body Wash – I didn’t think much of this body wash.  Maybe I was already turned off by how “natural” the product was. The smell was okay. The body wash did not feel like it cleaned extremely well.

Purchase? No – I could do without this body wash.

Clarins UV Plus HP Ecran Multi-Protection SPF 40 – (no link – discontinued) You may have seen a post I made on this beautiful product and how upset I was when I went to purchase it, only to find that it was discontinued.  I was excited to find a second deluxe sample in my stash, but now that I have completely used all of it, once again, I am saddened that those were literally the last drops of Clarins SPF I would ever put on my face!

Purchase? I would if I could. Trust me!

Marc Jacobs Honey – I have this never ending stash of perfume samples and I’m happy I was able to finally finish one! MJ Honey smells sweet yet floral just as real honey would. It’s a pleasant, happy scent.

Purchase? No, I’ll stick to MJ Daisy.

Swisspers Hypoallergenic 100% Cotton Rounds – I decided to include the items that help me in my skincare/makeup routines. I’ve been using this cotton for about a year and the main complaint I have is that in the rare event that I put too much micellar water, the side of the cotton that has the embossed texture tends to leave pieces on my fingers.

Repurchase? I have an endless amount of this stuff.

Puffs Plus Lotion – This extremely soft tissue is great for my sensitive skin. I have used this when I have had a cold, but for the rest of the year, I place it on my vanity. It’s very useful for quick touch ups or if I want to clean something such as a makeup brush.

Purchase? Yes – Useful and the packaging comes in cute patterns.
