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

Here are my empties for November 2017. Really good mix of product types this month. 

 

Love it (definitely will repurchase):

Re: Empties

November empties had a good mix of foil and deluxe size samples. I’ve made good progress through the foil samples that I’ve accumulated but I’m still working my way through a bin of deluxe samples. It doesn’t help that I fall for the promos with those cute minis all the time😅LovesLovesLikesLikesNopesNopes

 

 

RE: Re: Empties

I bet your hair is so healthy and smooth right now @oceanics!

Re: RE: Re: Empties

I have coloured hair and the Caviar shampoo/conditioner has done such a wonderful job at keeping it soft and manageable @juliehnguye.

Macadamia Professionals Weightless Moisture Shampoo
Lush Lemony Flutter- I used this as a hand cream at night. You need the tiniest amount and it smells like candied lemons. I don't like lemon scents, but I like how this smells.
Philosophy Purity Made Simple- I've been using this daily (a.m.) for about 10 years now. It's not drying and doesn't bother my skin.
Kate Somerville Goat Milk Cream- I've gone through a few jars of these. It's Lightweight moisture but I'm trying something new so I haven't repurchased this yet.
Lush African Paradise Body Conditioner- This is really moisturizing and has a light powder scent that doesn't interfere with perfume. I'm bummed it's being discontinued, this is what I use when I'm out of Snow Fairy.
Shiseido Facial Cotton- Soft, and doesn't fall apart. These are the only cottons I use on my face.
Too Cool For School Egg Cream Mask- One of my favorite masks, it's super hydrating.

Marc Jacobs Lip Gloss- I don't know what color this is, it's not labeled. My one gripe about this is how often I had to reapply it. I mean, I like to think I'm realistic and don't expect gloss to last through meals but sometimes I felt like 2 drinks of water and it's gone. It's sheer, not sticky, and fades gracefully though. I will use up the other minis I have but I'm not sure if I would invest in a full size or not.
Lush Pink Custard Shower Jelly- This smells good and foams up really well. I normally cut these up into small chunks but I think I'm gonna try my next one whole and see how I like it.

Spoiler
Skin Laundry Hydrating Mask- My skin reacted to this so I wouldn't try it again. It didn't seem to have enough serum either, when I took it off there wasn't much to be rubbed into the skin.
Origins Ginzing Eye Cream- Not moisturizing enough and it does nothing for puffiness like it claims.

RE: Re: Empties

Love the Egg Creme Mask and Shiseido cotton pads. ❤️ They have been such game-changers for me! And I'm probably the only person that has never tried Lush. I always pass by it in the mall but I never know what to get, especially because I don't like bath bombs (I had a terrible reaction to a bath bomb once and now I'm so scared to use them).

Re: RE: Re: Empties

@juliehnguyen I've actually never tried the bath bombs, because I have such a small tub. I mostly just use shower products by them, although I want to try more of their haircare. 

Re: Empties

These are more like September through November empties. As you can see, I didn't use up a lot of stuff the past few months!

 

l’occitane thé vert & bigarade shower gel - deluxe sample

cerave hydrating cleanser - full size (repurchased)

fresh black tea age delay firming serum - sample

smith’s rose & mandarin lip balm - full size

bath & body works country apple body wash - full size

lancome grandiose mascara - full size (repurchased)

benefit fake-up concealer (medium) - full size (repurchased before they changed the packaging)

Not for me

Luckily,  my son like the Unani cleanser and used it all. The Earth Tu Face was really greasy and the NYX primer was a crumbly mess.Luckily, my son like the Unani cleanser and used it all. The Earth Tu Face was really greasy and the NYX primer was a crumbly mess.

Buxom Full-on Lip Polish in Erin I think this is my first time completely finishing a lip gloss! This product got me hooked on the tingly sensation of Buxom lip plumpers. Will definitely get more shades!!

Found a few more from November. I DO NOT recommend the lip mask. I got it from boxycharm and tried it last night. I had a bad reaction to it! Its supposed to stay on for 15-20 minutes...I lasted maybe 5 before I took it off. Even after I took it off, my lips burned and tingled and my face was hot and flush. I had to take an allergy pill to cut down on my pain. 😕 I will definitely being giving the rest of them away or throwing them out.

i saw a youtuber try the lip mask - cant remember who - & her reaction made me not even want to try it!

Re: Found a few more from November. I DO NOT recommend the li...

Sorry about the lip mask @Lazybeautybeast! That makes me nervous to try it because I have super sensitive lips. It took me two weeks to recover from one minute of Too Faced Lip Injection!

( @MachynesSister I didn't like the lip mask either... it actually seemed drying to me and the reviews are not great. I don't think you're missing anything. )

Re: ( @MachynesSister I didn't like the lip mask either... it...

That makes me feel less guilty for throwing it out @fieldsofclover. I hate wasting perfectly good stuff, but I couldn't give it away or try it knowing that a lot of people reacted badly to it.

@MachynesSister I would recommend maybe doing a patch test with some of the gel from the lip mask first since you have sensitive lips. There is a possibility that I have an allergy to something in it as well. But there were quite a few comments on the Boxycharm fb page from people who had the same issue. 😕 My lips have been really dry lately but it was just not a pleasant experience for me. As for the HUM, I don't know that I have seen a difference from the vitamins yet but it can a few months for that. I'm going to order some more and keep trying (I'm kicking myself for not ordering from HUM direct on black Friday). The only difference I have noticed so far is that they don't upset my stomach as much as others.

RE: Empties

My husband threw away my empties trying to be helpful. I couldn't be mad at him. I tried to explain why I was saving them. He said those ladies don't wanna see empty products. They wanna see brand new things. Lol.

Re: Empties

October and November empties.
