I love seeing other peoples empties! So I decided to make a board where people could post pictures of their empties, or just tell us about them! I'd also be interested in knowing whether you're repurchasing anything or not.
buh-bye october...and empties!!!

I would have to swear by the Soft soap coconut scrub I absolutely love that scent!
Is it weird that I always picture you as extremely well groomed, because you have so many empties each month? That or you're well groomed and smart for tossing the items that do not work for you. My stupid self will keep using items I hate, because I paid for them and hate wasting money.
I really like They're Real Remover. It is the only They're Real thing I think Benefit got right. Sorry you did not like it.
i'm totally ocd!!! i also do a full face pretty much every day so i use things up rather quickly...and i don't skimp on products at all!!!
I've been trying to wear makeup a little more often. Working from home (and only part time at that), there are days I never leave the house. There are other days I leave the house only to get my sons to/from school. I usually do not put makeup on if it will be viewed for less time than it takes me to apply it. I just need more places to go.
I tend not to skimp when I use something, too. The Becca primer I am sampling right now keeps peeling off my face when I use my Algenist moisturizer but works fine over La Mer. I am either using too much Algenist, which is causing the Becca to pick it up and move it around or the products are not compatible. It is hard to overuse the La Mer sample, because the way it comes out of the bottle. Plus, I love it and have no intention of buying i any time soon, so I am using it very conservatively (odd for me).
Wow, look at all those empties! I'm super impressed. I need to start taking pictures of mine again!
I've been hesitant on the They're Real remover... what did you like/dislike about it?
it was ok...it got my eye makeup off...but it was nothing special. it reminded me of the mufe sens eyes...but i like that better! it was just an average cream remover.
I realized I can't keep my empties anymore! It stresses me out to have it just sitting around >_<
But I did FINALLY go through a travel size of an ojon shampoo, mean while I went through a liter of conditioner :P, curly girl hair and all that. I know I've been through some OH truth serum sample packs as well I love that stuff!
😮 why it stress you little dove?!?!
i did the same thing with the MUFE mascara!! apparently my lashes are getting picky!!
It is straight junk. Your eyes are just smart.
I've been tempted by the Carol's Daughter Black Vanilla line for months now! What do you love about it?
I have so many empties over the past few months that I recycled to ORIGINS.
"Bring any cosmetic brand empty container into any Origins retail store & we’ll recycle it for you for FREE. All returned packing is sent back to a central location where products will be recycled or used for energy recovery."

I got a Mario Badescu mask as a GWP from Ulta. I opened it a couple of weeks ago, and it looks like dried up clay. It is an off white color. If I have the same one you have, what are the directions for use? The sample does not say, so I was going to Google it to see how it works and if it is normal to look like that.
Where do you get your skin food items?? I'm so interested in trying all of those masks!
I'm sorry for not getting back to you much, much sooner.
We have a couple of Skin Food Stores in the Bay Area.
One is in the Stonestown Mall, San Francisco
And there is another one in the Westfield Valley Fair Mall in Santa Clara/San Jose.
On the website, they also have stores in
Flushing ChinaTown, NY (Roosevelt Ave.)
Another in Flushing, NY (Northern Blvd)
Valley Plaza, Bakersfield, CA
Northridge, CA
Glendale Galleria, Glendale, CA
Los Cerritos, CA
Irving, CA
So I did some makeup cleanup and didn't take a picture of all but let me tell you about these products here from left to right.
The tarte eyeliner was very thin, I did like it, it was perfect for tight lining. The purple eyeliner wasn't very well pigmented, definite pass. kvd mascara.. i liked it at the start but then it got to be as bothersome as the benefit they're real mascara. the ud liquid liner.. i liked the tip but not the formula, felt too runny for me. blinc mascara made my eyes water, i did give it a couple of tries, including the other day wearing just that to test it out again.. and yes, definitely something in the mascara that my eyes can't stand.
What brand is the purple eyeliner? Is it Styli-Style?
I disliked the Blinc mascara too. I have another formula of their's to try, however, the first one made my eyes itchy too, so I'm not looking forward to it.
Thanks for the reviews
It's NYC, I bought it cause it was cheap but, sometimes you get hits, sometimes you get oh nos.. this was definitely and oh no. It does show some color, but I dont want to puncture my skin to get some deep color like the one seen.
