Empties

[wendyomgwar]

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.

Always love seeing people's experiences with products.  I have that Benefit sample so I'm curious to try it out and see if it does anything for me.  The only thing I've tried on that lis is the B&B thickening conditioner.  It seems to make my hair feel so odd when wet and requires a lot of additional products to get it feeling soft, but admittedly my hair is already thick so the last thing I need is a thickening conditioner.

I keep seeing this Lancome line pop up and go searching for it but can never find it.  Where did you get these samples?  

It is annoying when companies label toner as lotion.  I am unsure why, but I have seen La Mer, Erno Laszlo and others do that as well.

So, I finally went to place my order for this, and I see they are gone.  Boo.  Lancome direct does not even carry this line.  At least you did not like the toner.  That provides some solace.

I missed this one completely and this promo is right up my alley.  I may need to place another order.  Thanks so much.

Loves:

UD Deslick - Will repurchase this forever. Love love love.

Joico K-Pak Hair Mask - I have another travel size and a full size. It really helped my hair when I was dyeing it.

FAB Face Cleanser - I have several of these as well as a ton of other cleansers I need to use up before repurchasing.

FAB Ultra Repair Cream - Love this stuff when I sometimes get dry patches

Neutrogena Makeup Removing Wipes - Love these but I found some Equate brand I love better and you get twice the amount for half the price. 

Meh:

VS Bodywash - Smelled good. Nothing Special.

Storebrand nail polish remover - Took a little while to take all the polish off.

Sweet Pea bodywash - Got this in a gift set. Mehh.

Lady Speedstick Deodorant - Got this in a pinch from the hotel I stayed at when my grandpa was in the hospital. I love my Dove a whole lot more.

I did that too the first couple of times I started collecting empties. 😞

What a tragedy! 😞

I'm really proud of myself this month. And last month. These are empties for March and April. 

Loves:
NEST wasabi pear body cream
Origins White Tea antioxidant cleanser

Origins active charcoal mask

Dior Nude Air Serum foundation

Fresh Seaberry face oil

Fresh Seaberry restorative body cream (smells exactly like the oil, very thick and moisturising)
Clinique Clinical Clearing Gel (have a full size of this actually, just used a sample on a trip)
GlamGlow SuperMud cleanser (just like regular Supermud when I left it on like a mask, I don't know if it's a good idea though)

Likes:

B&B Thickening hairspray

B&B Thickening Shampoo+Conditioner
Origins Make a difference+
Living Proof satin hair serum
GlamGlow Thirstymud cleanser

L'Oreal lip pencil in eternal mauve

Bite Beauty double lipstick in lychee/musk from last year (too creamy, doesn't last long)

Meh:

Algenist Genius eye cream
Fresh Rose face mask (too sticky,smells weird)
ExfoliKate - I don't get it, why is this so popular?
Tatcha marula cleansing oil - didn't even take off my makeup
Living Proof curl cleansing conditioner+styling treatment
Clinique for men deodorant (leaves white stains everywhere, used up but would not repurchase)
Sephora Body Wash with random citrus scent - meh. doesn't even make decent foam 
A bunch of random perfume vials

Wasabi Pear Lotion? That sounds heavenly! Ditto on the ExfoliKat

[Anonymous]

Wasabi Pear body cream was my favorite body product. It smelled like the ripest, most delicious pear, only a hint of wasabi. Unfortunately Sephora doesn't carry it anymore 😞

I think I saw the perfume at TJ maxx recently.

[vanillammm]

I was just going to say that I bought the cream, body wash and body spray at Marshalls recently. $13 for the spray and $8 for the others. Insanely good deal for these high quality products.

I totally feel the same way about the ExfoliKate.  I just don't get what is supposed to be so great about it.  It never did anything special for me and I even had the small size at one time (which later got passed to a friend).

I feel the same way about Eve Lom's cleanser. I had to make sure I didn't hallucinate when I saw the price. Why is it so outrageously expensive? the only thing good about this sample was the little muslin cloth that came with it. It's pretty good size and I still use it with other cleansers 🙂

[guzelkiz]

I totally agree about the Eve Lom one.  I got a bunch of samples from Nordstrom and after using one I've passed the rest to friends.  It was a good sample because each one came with a mini cloth.  

[heartsmyface]

Hmmmm, I've got five samples of that stuff.  I'm curious as to which side I'll be on with it.  I'll let you know at the end of the month:) 

[Anonymous]

Maybe you will be able to see the difference with five samples. I used 2 (got 4 uses out of 2 samples) and didn't see anything at all. Maybe you will have better luck with it 🙂

[guzelkiz]

Sounds good.  🙂

Wow, no wonder my skin's been so bad this month—I didn't use any sheet masks.

Most loved: Glossier Priming Moisturizer. I will repurchase this once I use up some more moisturizer samples.

Most hated: UD Perversion mascara. This did nothing for me except give me slightly spidery, clumpy lashes.
