Empties

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.

Re: Empties

I gave it a harsh rating based on the fact that I have really oily roots and thin hair and it made my roots and thin hair's overall appearance worse instead of fluffing up the strands all over and getting rid of the oil at my roots both lay flat on the top of my head. the drybar dry shampoo is good so I expected the triple sec to be as well .but for me not so much. 😞 i really wanted to like it. 

Re: Empties

Okay, thank you.  I think there may still be hope for it then as my hair is thick and dry.  

Re: Empties

I love triple sec!  Not quite AS effective as Detox, but I think of it as a great 2nd, 3rd day dry shampoo, whereas Detox is my (don't judge) 4th day and beyond choice.  Curious too what you didn't like.

Re: Empties

I love that you clean out your candles. What do you plan to use them for?

Re: Empties

Omg so sorry I didn't see this before!  Well, I used the GWP size ones to put my eye brushes in and the bigger one I used for cotton buds.

Re: Empties

So many pretty empties. I love the cloth you're displaying them on.

Re: Empties

Thanks NC 🙂

Re: Empties

Is that sapin candle jar big enough to hold a beauty blender?  It's just too pretty to think of tossing! 

Re: Empties

Yes it is!  I know. I actually don't ever toss any of these empty Diptyque holders.  I always end up storing little things in them.

Re: Empties

Do you just put them in freezer so you can pop the leftover wax out of the bottom? 

Re: Empties

No.  I get some pliers out to remove the metal part holding the wick and then I just wash them like I wash dishes.  

Re: Empties

Oh, ok, thanks!

Re: Empties

Sure!  There's no need to freeze them or anything.  Just wash them and the wax will come out.  Also, when the candle is almost gone I will light it one last time and pour out whatever wax will come out.  Then when it cools I will wash it.

Re: Empties

I would have never thought to wash them - I thought that water wouldn't work to get wax out. Thanks for the tips! I'm going to buy my first Diptyque candle this spring and I definitely want to keep the jar once it's gone.

Re: Empties

Sure, Jenny!  Yup, normal old soap and water will do the trick.  I like to keep all the holders once the candles are spent.  

Re: Empties

I'm usually good to toss empty candle jars but my heart stopped at the thought of that one going, lol!  I don't normally buy really nice candles though.  

Re: Empties

I just can't bring myself to throw any of these out esp the Diptyque ones.  I dunno 🙂
