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.
Thanks so much! I was worried about the rose in the description, but masculine is right up my alley ❣️ I keep swearing off of buying candles from Ulta online because 80% of the time they get broken in transit, but I may have to watch for a deal on that one. Thank you!
June Empties. 17. This must have been when i decided to use more of my sheet mask stash
Top- love or strong like. Middle- like, may or may not repurchase. Bottom sheet mask - meh? I need to use the clean watermelon again. It was tingly but i left it on for 15 min. The milk makeup moist. was too thick for my skin. Bobbi Brown concealer covered every thing & anything but i don't need that well of coverage. 166 ytd total

Kocostar waffle sheet mask, love..

Notes in the spoiler!
End of June trash 🗑️

Notes coming shortly
Funny @RGbrown, I was just looking at that Hanskin today. That actually sounds like something I would love, may have to try it now!
It's definitely worth a shot! It is a good first cleanse, I had no issues with performance at all. I also liked the scent, but do try and avoid scented stuff (sometimes, when it suits me haha...you can pry my stinky Tula cleanser from my cold dead hand 🤣)
Ha ha which Tula would that be, @RGbrown? I’ve tried a few of their products but haven’t noticed an overwhelming scent (yet). I am definitely going to try the Hanskin, hopefully soon although I am drowning in mists and toners at the moment😂
Their original cleanser (recently renamed "Cult Classic Cleanser", but before it was just "Cleanser", I believe). It's got a strong scent, quite odd, but I've grown to love it ❤️
Oh how did you like the Native deodorant @Lazybeautybeast ? I've tried two and can't wait to try more... Candy Cane? I love that they have seasonal scents.
Wow, looks like you had a great quarter! Impressed by how well you preserve and organize your empties.
“Skincare hoarder probs” - completely understand that @KeriCherryDee!
The latest batch o' trash 🗑️

Notes in the spoiler!
@RGbrown Lol... I'm pretty sure I still have a bottle of that BBW lotion style around somewhere... they can't be that old??? lol
@RGbrown, I’m chuckling at your comments on the B&BW packaging - that design looked so familiar to me when I saw your photo. I think it must be at least 10 years old! 😆 100% agree with your thoughts on BioBelle - that particular mask is my favorite from the brand. My wallet and I send out a huge thanks for your review of the Ella + Mia polish remover pads. I’ve debated whether to pick up a pack but decided to stick with my trusty Zoya remover each time. Glad I did.
The more I think about that BBW, I think I can place it somewhere around 13-14 years old, maybe more. Dear lord, how out of control is my hoard? 😆 At least I finally caught up on the oldest of the oldest 😅
That Ella+Mila wipe may be the worst thing I've ever used. It did perform its function, so I guess there's at least on pro to it, but it was a sensory nightmare. Definitely stick to Zoya...it's the best!
I have about 2 months worth of empties to share so in order to avoid spamming the page with pictures, I'll put the pictures in spoilers and give brief experience descriptions in 3 rating categories. P.S A lot of my pictures aren't uploading so only uploading what I can.
Yes's- Would repurchase
Drybar Prep Rally Prime & Prep Detangler- I liked this detangler, liked the smell and it did its job very well. Was it any different than every detangler I've ever tried? Nope. But it did its job and for that I would say I would repurchase when I run out of the stash of detanglers I have at home.
KOPARI - Coconut Melt- This was a repurchase already. I love using this to moisturize my skin in the shower right after I turn the water off. It's made my skin less itchy.
IGK Good Behavior Spirulina Protein Anti-Frizz Smoothing Spray 5.6 oz/ 186 mL- I bought this on a whim and am glad I got to try a smoothing spray. It made me realize this was the missing step I needed in my hair routine! The only downside is the fragrance- it made me gag every time I used it BUT it left me with frizz-free hair so it was easy to suck it up.
LAURA MERCIER - Flawless Fusion Ultra-Longwear Foundation- This was one of the better matte foundations in my collection that I was sad to part with because it went on matte without making me look 10 years older and the shade was a perfect match on me.
Tatcha The Silk Canvas Protective Primer 0.7 oz/ 20 g- It took me a billion years to finish this partly because I was saving it for "special occasions" but I finally hit pan when I realized all special occasions for the year have been cancelled (ha). This is a cult favorite for a reason and I loved the way to held my makeup up all day.
Kate Somerville EradiKate™ Daily Cleanser with Sulfur Acne Treatment 4 oz/ 120 mL- Repurchase and quite possibly my favorite face wash of all time. I find it helps tone down breakouts without it drying out my skin.
Living Proof Flex Hairspray- this was a repurchase and is my current HG hairspray.
BBW 3 Wick Candles- Both scents were lovely. The pineapple was used all last summer and I finished it off a few days ago and the vanilla more in the colder months.
Garnier Micellar Water- Got the job done and lasted a lifetime. Definitely worth the money especially during BOGO events at Ulta.
Loreal Nutrifier Mask- this has such a fruity yet perfumey scent to it- I just love it. It did an AMAZING job at smoothing out my hair and was sad to have used it all up. I was surprised at how much more I enjoyed this drugstore brand mask than some of my "higher end" masks and am going to repurchase tubs of this as soon as I finish a few more hair masks in my collection.
Paula's Choice BHA- This was one of the Nordies GWP's I got ages ago but decided to give a go at night every so often to switch up my skincare. I quite enjoyed it and felt like it did make a difference in my skin. I feel like my skin was brighter, softer and more clear when I would use this. Will definitely repurchase in the future.
Eh- It Was Okay, Wouldn't Go Out of my Way to Try Again
LIVING PROOF - Perfect hair Day (PhD) Dry Shampoo- Great dry shampoo but don't like the white cast it leaves. I got spoiled using a dry shampoo that goes on clear so I would buy again but would rather not deal with the hassle of getting rid of a white crown.
LIVING PROOF - Restore Shampoo+Conditioner duo- this was okay. Not bad, not amazing; just okay. I didn't feel like it made my hair softer or stronger or less tangled. It performed like your average shampoo and conditioner.
GLAMGLOW - GLOWSETTER™ Makeup Setting Spray- I really liked the scent and the spritzer but can't say it was any different than the other setting sprays in my collection aside from its coconutty smell. It's supposed to help give a glow but honestly I didn't notice much when I used this.
KORRES Wild Rose Night-Brightening Sleeping Facial 1.35 oz / 40 mL- I really liked this especially when I paired it with the rose oil but I don't see myself repurchasing it only because I have a lot more oils to empty before I go out of my way to spend some coins on this. It does an amazing job at moisturizing the skin and leaving it soft and supple especially in the winter so I would recommend it to others.
ALTERNA Haircare CAVIAR Anti-Aging® Restructuring Bond Repair Conditioner 8.5 oz/ 250 mL+ Shampoo duo- I can't tell if this made any difference in my hair so I wasn't crazy about it. It cleaned my hair but had no wow-factor so for that I wouldn't repurchase.
Dr. Brandt Skincare pores no more® pore refiner primer 1 oz-Loved this as a pore-filling primer and would 100% recommend it to others. Unfortunately, I love Silk Canvas a little more because it's not as thick so for that I'll say I won't repurchase UNLESS Silk Canvas gets discontinued.
DIOR - BACKSTAGE Face & Body Foundation- this was a great foundation to use when I was slightly more tan than usual. Goes on pretty medium to full coverage and has that typical Dior grandma scent but I really did enjoy using it to the last drop. It has a very watery consistency BUT don't let that fool you into thinking you need to use more product.
Kopari Coconut Balm- I got this from the direct site because it was like 40% off and I couldn't resist a deal. I've come to the conclusion that this is exactly like the Coconut Melt except in a squeeze tube. While it's more hygienic, you get waaaay less product so in the end it's not worth buying this over the Melt. I went through a tube in like a month or less when the Melt tub lasts me about 3-4 months or so.
GO SMILE Whitening Gel- This was okay? I did repurchase just because I want to give it a second chance but I honestly didn't see any results the first time around. Would not really recommend but if my opinion changes with my second tube, I'll be sure to shout it from the mountain tops 😉
Eva NYC Therapy Session Mask- Talk about bang for your buck. I would say this tub gave me 100 uses and that's that I was slathering it on like crazy towards the end just to finish the darn thing. It did wonders for my hair and it smelled of vanilla goodness. Would repurchase but not in a rush to do so just yet.
BBW Body Washes- I love all fruity scents from BBW so of course I would repurchase but can't say either scent was anything magical.
Nope!- Toss it and Never Look Back
Covergirl Peacock Flare Mascara- there was nothing truly special about this mascara. It did give my lashes some volume but nothing noteworthy at all. The wand was big and twisted I felt it was difficult to not get mascara smudges all over my lids when I used this. Not worth the money!
