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.
Yeah, do. Let us know. 👍🏻
This is pretty good for me!

Empties from the last 3 months. It feels good to get through products and saving empties has helped me more consciously use up what I already have instead of buying more things to try.
Loves
Nude Jelly Cleanser- Discontinued, if anybody knows of something similar, any recommendations would be would be greatly appreciated!
Soap & Glory Body Wash- love this for the scent!
SR Good Genes- I recently finished a 0.5 oz bottle and have been refilling it with these samples from an old promo. When I stop using this I can actually see a negative difference in my skin.
FAB Radiance Pads- effective and reasonably priced. I have a few other acids I'm working my way through so I will probably hold off on repurchasing right away. Currently using N ip + Fab extra strength pads and I definitely don't like them as much as FAB.
L'occitane Almond Shower Oil- I know a lot of people like the scent of this but I'm actually not a big fan.I love using this for shaving.
Sephora Quill lashes- These are my perfect lashes. My eyes are on the smaller side and a lot of highly recommended lashes look ridiculous on me. These are full, provide a bit of length and aren't too obvious which is exactly what I'm looking for. Unfortunately I ruined a pair when I started using my TTDO balm before removing them. I didn't get much on the lashes but it was enough to cause them to separate.
Algenist Eye Renewal Balm- I always pick this on up when it's on promo. I don't necessarily notice any minimizing of lines but I like this for daytime under makeup, a little goes a long way.
Likes/might repurchase
E&J Nirvana Dry Shampoo- Good but leaves me wanting more. Can easily leave residue marks in my black hair if I'm not careful but soaks up oils better than other dry shampoos I've tried.
DDG Alpha Beta Glow Pads- Nice but can start to look orange on my medium olive skin if used more than 2 days in a row. When I use up the box I plan to try the Clarins Glow Booster.
SR Tidal & CEO- I used CEO on nights I wanted extra hydration. Did not use long/consistently enough to notice any vitamin C brightening effects. Tidal was nice but I have enough deluxe sized moisturizers I don't think I'll need to buy anything for awhile lol.
Hourglass 1.5MM Eyeliner- I actually loved this but it ran out way too fast. Right now I'm using the Clinique Skinny Stick eyeliner. I prefer the HG one and actually think the Skinny Stick might be being discontinued.
Fresh Sugar Lip Balms- Deluxe sizes from a holiday set. I love love love the formula and subtle colors but the packaging is terrible. When you get to the bottom there is actually a lot of product left that can be scooped out from the plastic part that twists up.
Meh/wouldn't repurchase:
Oribe Royal Blowout- This lasted a really time making it a good value. It promises a lot but is just average imo.
Clinique brow gel- I thought this dried out quickly. When it comes to tinted brow gel I prefer Glossier's Boybrow.
Lush Charity Pot Body Lotion- I love the ingredients of Lush products but this one left me feeling sticky.
It Cosmetics Bye Bye Undereye- the only thing I really disliked. No matter how thick of a layer I put on I felt like it wasn't moisturizing enough.
This is awesome. I have a big post coming because I have (unintentionally) been saving up since the beginning of the year. My bag is practically overflowing at this point and now I just need to get my act together to photograph & post.
Im the same way with saving empties helping me use up products I already have. Ive been on a low but in 2017 and this has helped me realize how much I already have to use.
I too scoop out balm from from sticks that appear to be used up. It constantly amazes me how much product is left in there. I've never been a fan of using a lip brush when I'm out and about, but at home while putting on my make up, heck yes. Fresh and the Dior balms are two of the biggest culprits!
When I first noticed it I was amazed too! It wasn't until my 3rd or 4th tube that I noticed it either which means I threw away a bunch of product. Also, a lip brush is a good idea, I usually snap a q-tip in half and scoop it out that way lol
Here's all 43 of my monthly empties

Just Okay/ Wouldn't repurchase...
I detest that PTR cream. Ugh, used it once and it felt so heavy in a bad way, and gross. Couldn't wait to cleanse after. I've been curious about the Macadamia products. Nice to hear that you enjoy it. @karap03 Bath and Body Works has great candles! They last a long time, too!
Looks like you had a productive month! Love the used up candles. I feel the same way about the Tatcha enzyme powder. I want to love it because I love the brand and many of their other products, but I just don't know. It's definitely not enough to be my sole source of exfoliation and I'm not sure how worth it it is to use in addition to other exfoliants. Also just opened that PTR cream. Not sure I like it, but generally I don't love gel creams.
I have a few empties to share!
Tons of heat/styling protectants - I had quite a stash of heat protectants for my hair...finally used up the last one! I don't count the ones with hold, since I don't like using products with hold to blow dry (unless I'm setting my bangs)
Sunday Riley Blue Moon - yep, used up the entire 3 oz size cleansing balm. Really love this stuff. I MIGHT repurchase but may consider trying a full size of the Clinique Take the Day Off balm first to see how that works for me, since the SR is so $$$.
Pixi Glow Tonic (100 mL) - used this mini bottle up after almost 6 months (wow!) and don't think I'll repurchase. Have already switched back to my Missha First Treatment essence.
My close-to empties:
Herbivore Blue Tansy mask - I figure I have maybe 3 uses left. I'm seriously considering repurchasing.
The Ordinary Buffet serum - only 1/4 left, already repurchased! Went a few days without this stuff and my skin felt WRONG!
Fin.
Love the styling on this photo.

Nope (this is actually the advance balm)
Whoops, better late than never.
Loves:
* I buy these in bulk (with the exception of the Sephora eye mask), so I love them all.
Loves:
* Assured cotton rounds from the dollar store. Can't beat the price!
Hates:
* KvD concealer samples. Cakey and awful on me!
* Charlotte Tilbury lipstick sample in Electric Poppy. It's a near perfect dupe for CT Amazing Grace, so what's the point of having both?
Loves:
* Dr. Dennis Gross Alpha Beta original peels. They're so expensive, so I'll try some others, but I'd really like to repurchase these.
* Glossier skin tint. My ride or die, and I've repurchased it several times. I'm trying a Dior cushion foundation now, but I'll be going back to this once that's finished.
* PTR 24k gold eye masks. Are these the first eye masks I like?! Pricy, but effective, and I've repurchased.
Hates:
* Collagen Jelly Pack. Ick, I hated the sticky, filmy texture. I tried it a few times, but I need to get this the heck out of my house, I find it so gross.
* MAC lipstick in Runaway Hit. This cakes up so grossly on me for some reason, a problem I've never had with other MAC lipsticks. At least this was a freebie from Back to MAC.
* Nars Audacious mascara. I can't deal with this wand.
Special Don't Hoard Your Stuff Category:
I got a nice DS tube of Kiehl's Micro-Blur Skin Perfector two years ago as a GWP and put it aside until I finished some other foundations and primers. But it took so long to get through my other stuff that this went rancid in the meanwhile. 😞
I hear you on Dr. Dennis Gross peels. I keep trying other things, but inevitably I go back. I try to wait and buy them when there is a really good discount or GWP and love that some sites through in a smaller pack as a bonus.
Yay for my first empties post! I'm usually too lazy to keep all my empties and toss them as soon as I finish, but I still have these! I got lucky, these are all likes/loves!
LIKE:
Mario: This was nice and I like the smell. It didn't dry out my skin and the price is friendly. I'm so excited to finally have finished this since I've had it for almost 2 years! I use it to tone after I've washed my face and it helps remove the extra makeup by my hair line. I use it to clean my neck as well.
Clinique eye cream: this is lovely. I don't have much experience with eye creams but it definitely makes the area feel more moisturized. It doesn't help with the dark eye area like it claims, but most eye products people swear by haven't worked for me, so I have no complaints.
LOVE:
Lalicious: OMG i love this!!! I wasn't expecting much but it works amazingly! It makes my skin very smooth and this specific smell is heavenly. I love how refreshing the lemon scent is. I just wish this stuff wasnt so dang expensive!
Not pictured-Caudalie Vinosource Moisturizing Sorbet: I love this also! It made my skin so supple and soft and not greasy at all. I didn't have any dry patches from using this and it didn't make me break out or anything! The only negative is I wish i didn't have a scent, but luckily it's not cloying. The sample (.33oz) lasted me a few weeks. It rocks! Idt I would buy it since there are cheaper moisturizers that have similar effects for me, but if it's ever a GWP, I'll definitely redeem it.
Only on BT would someone call themselves lazy for throwing away their trash😄
I've never heard of Lalicious but will be looking them up in a moment:). It'll be a long while before I buy more body lotion but they're now on my radar:). Thanks!
Haha, perhaps BT warps my reality sometimes 😄
I'd never heard of the brand before either, but I wanted a new body scrub and took a chance. I definitely love it. I've tried a few of their scents now and the lemon is definitely my favorite. @heartsmyface
Did you get that during the crazy People shop sale? That's when I got my Lalicious. I just used a big tub up (I think it was vanilla coconut) and now will be using my smaller tubs.
April Empties!
