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

Wow! You did great! So many foils.

Re: Empties

Thanks, I've finally reached the point where I only have a few foundation samples left to use up.  I think I'm going to start using some of the stuff I actually purchased now.  It's time that stuff gets love.  

Re: Empties

Was this a single month? Great job.

Re: Empties

No, I missed August so things piled up some:).   There was no room in the bag for October so I had to do the photoshoot. 

Re: Empties

I had the same question.  Should have read down further.  Even still this is QUITE impressive.  I'm especially in awe of all your foils!  I've definitely made much less progress on mine since I started traveling as much.

Re: Empties

image.jpegLoved:

Nia24 Skin Strengthening Complex (3rd bottle!, I'm going to take a little break from it for now but I will probably go back)

Blue Lizard Baby Sunscreen

 

No thanks:

Not Your Mother's Clean Freak Dry Shampoo: Didn't do anything for absorbing oil. 

 

Everything else was kinda meh... I liked the Burberry Fresh Glow but I don't know if I'm actually going purchase a full size. 

 

 

Re: Empties

We only purchased Blue Lizard Sunscreen for years. Then it became so hard to find here, and I switched to Neutrogena. It is a great sunscreen. 

Re: Empties

I used to get it on drugstore.com but now with that going away I'm panicking. This is my go to sunscreen for the beach and physical activity that doesn't break me out! Which Neutrogena did you guys switch to?

Re: Empties

I did not even know they carried it. I used to get it at my local Walgreen's. Then, they stopped carrying it. Since Walgreen's seems to have picked up some of the items Drugstore online used to carry, I wonder if they will have it again.

Re: Empties

I was so close to finishing a couple of my major makeup products, but it just wasn't quite the time.  Here's what I did finish:

 

LOVE

NARS Radiant Tinted Moisturizer - full size

Histoires de Parfums Olympia Music Hall perfume - sample (this is so beautiful; one day I hope to own a full size)

 

LIKE

Up&Up Moisturizing Shave Gel for Dry Skin - full size

OGX Sunkissed Blonde Lemon Highlights Shampoo - full size

Re: Empties

I've thought about trying that shampoo. I have not colored my hair in a while, so it seems cool.

Re: Empties

It doesn't make a ton of difference, to be honest. It brings out my natural highlights a little bit, so it's worth a try as long as you go in not expecting too much.

Re: Empties

Re: Empties

I've been trying to make a dent in my Smith's lip balm (which is slightly different from yours), but I have such a hard time opening that darn tin. I either got a faulty one or it just hates me. It takes 1-2 minutes every time I open it. No joke.

Re: Empties

It's the tin. It can be very hard to open if it has even the smallest dent in it. The first one I purchased was great and I used it all up and repurchased. Unfortunately, the second one took a tumble to the ground and got a small dent in it. It would take me 1-3 minutes to open depending on whether or not I could twist it into the right position. I decided to buy a 3rd and it came pre-dented xo and I just couldn't get it open after trying for 10 minutes. When I went to return it I saw that they come in tubes now so I bought the tube version and haven't looked back since.

Re: Empties

Tubes seem like the way to go. I think the tin is giving me carpal tunnel. 

Re: Empties

@notcreative Its took me forever to hit bottom too! I didn't completely finish it up, there is still some on the side. During Spring term I got pink eye and couldn't remember if I dipped my finger in it which I'm sure I didn't but I think it was time (for sanitation purposes) to throw it out. 

Re: Empties

Does yours take a long time to open as well?

Re: Empties

No. The top came off easily unless I wasn't holding it right. @notcreative

Re: Empties

For a split second, I thought you emptied the entire Skin Wonderland set. There are a couple of items in there I really want to try, but I own too much skincare to justify buying it. Have you tried the boscia Pore Pudding yet? That is the item I really want to try from that set more than anything else.
