Empties

[wendyomgwar]

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.

Bummer. I was thinking of heading to Wal-Mart to pick some of these up. I mostly shop Target, but I remembered Wal-Mart's store brand starts with something similar to that. After looking it up, I now see it is Equate.

I was going to say, I live in Chicago too and isn't that the store brand from the jewel.  Living in Chicago I cant remember the last time I went to a Walmart which is fine because i love target.

[TKLJ]

Yep, Jewel-Osco!

Quick empty update since it has been forever since I've been on BT. I miss you guys. Finally in NC - haven't settled but after 1600 miles and not knowing anyone.. there's a lot to get used to!

These empties have been for the past two months.

 

[knuevekm]

how old was the beauty blender you threw out? I clean mine often but I figured it has a shelf life regardless of how much I clean it.

[paiute]

I throw mine out every four months or so.. I've had one last five months, but only because I was not using it nearly as much.

[Mochapj]

I think they recommend switching them out ever 3 months or whenever you start to notice it degrading.

I'm a former New Yorker now living in North Carolina. Such a great state! Hope you love it here and adjust quickly 🙂

My brother's ex-wife moved to NC with her boyfriend and 4 of my nieces/nephews. I miss them. When my husband travels there on business, he always tells me how great it is. I hope you love it.

[kelloua]

Wow!  I'm impressed.

[heartsmyface]

Oh wow that's a lot of empties.  I know it's for a couple months but wow do they ever add up quickly!  

I'm glad your move went well.  Here's hoping you meet some new buddies soon.  That was always the hard part for me growing up in a military family.  I wonder if any of the ladies on here are from your new area.

North Carolina?

I feel like I just don't get products like the Dr. Jart+ Dermaclear.  I've tried both this product and the Simple Micellar, which seems similar and neither are strong enough to remove eye makeup and they don't seem hydrating enough to use in place of a hydrating toner.

[jeyrosella]

Yeah I brought the little bottle with me for travel and I liked it but think I prefer my boscia make-up break-up oil. The Dr. Jart does take off my eye make-up and seems more gentle than makeup removing wipes, with the caveat that I don't wear waterproof mascara and I don't wear eyeliner so taking off my make-up isn't that hard anyway.

[JazaChai]

I don't use them for eye makeup usually, just to take off my foundation, etc., before cleansing. I use specific eye makeup remover for the eyes. It's an extra step I suppose, but I haven't really found a remover that works well on both face and eyes. When I wear just BB cream or something I skip this step, but if I wear foundation + powder I usually have a lot left on my face at the end of the day.

[heartsmyface]

I recently have been feeling really lazy and have been using the express wipes to remove most of my eye makeup.  Then I am forced to go wash off my face cause I don't generally trust what's in them staying on my skin.  I end up washing my face in the end, cause once I'm over the sink there's no point in doing a half job of it.

Wild Rose Pee?! Haha - that is a funny typo (at least I hope it is a typo!)

[jeyrosella]

Ha! Changed it! Thanks 🙂

I keep forgetting to copy the products I've written out before I fill in my reviews. My reviews are too long to post here, but let me know if you're curious on anything.

[CRAZY4MASCARA]

Would you say the Ole wipes are worth buying? They're the makeup remover ones right?
