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.

It was great, @Fernleaf! It is both an antiperspirant and deodorant and I thought it was very effective - I just wish the price was lower!

[Fernleaf]

Thanks it sounds amazing!  The price is pretty high for a deodorant.  I've enjoyed some expensive deodorants though from time to time.

August Empties!

I am feeling extra lazy today and cannot bear to list all the products with mini reviews haha. Loves are things I will or have repurchased. I'd be happy to give any additional info if anyone wants to know about a specific product.

Great empties.  Looks like you did some serious damage.  (I'm always especially impressed at the candles that get used up around here.  I seem to never remember to light mine unless I have company over.)  What made the Glamglow a dislike for you?  Curious because I have a couple samples and haven't tried yet.

[karap03]

It caused a bad breakout unfortunately:( I used it the first time and had radiant skin but woke up with multiple zits. I thought it was a fluke and tried it again a few weeks later resulting in the same breakout. I think it has to do with the heavy scent/perfume. I usually love Glamglow but it was a pass for me.

[kelloua]

Oh no!  That's awful.  I have acne-prone skin so I'll be curious how mine responds when I finally try it.  Thankfully a lot of ingredients that seem to give other people problems (shea butter specifically comes to mind, though I don't know if it is in this) don't seem to give me problems so I'm hopeful it won't break me out.

I am really trying to de-stash (and be on a low buy...) but I have so much stuff to use, ugh.

Here are my empties for the first half of August.

That Bum Bum cream is on my list for the next VIB Rouge sale. Its amazinggggg!

[heartsmyface]

Ha, funny cause I am in LOVE with the shu uemura shampoo and conditioner!!!  I also have extremely processed hair so it appreciates a good oily residue.  

That at brazillian bum bum cream is awesome!!!!  I'm trying to work my way through some other body creams first before buying it though.  

[kelloua]

Is that the hey honey eye concealer in your pics?  Trying to decide if I should try it or save for a TSB as I already have 2 things of concealer open.  I know how overwhelming it can be to use up what you already have.  Maybe go through and pull out the ones you're really not looking forward to using up and use them for a TSB or donate them.  (I've got a big bag earmarked for a local shelter filled with things I know I don't need or want to use and that are too bulky or likely undesirable for a TSB.)

[maeva]

It's not a concealer, it was a face scrub! 

I need to find a place to donate my beauty stuff I won't use (or don't like)... There aren't a lot of those around here, but this thread is motivating me to go through my stash at least!! 😄

[heartsmyface]

I keep seeing that stuff in people's subscription boxes.  I hope I get one in my ipsy bag soon.  The curiosity is getting to me.

I'm interested in the Sephora Foot Masks.  I love the idea of them. I used the Karuna ones which made my feet soft for that day but there wasn't much of a lasting effect.

[maeva]

The effect doesn't last with the Sephora ones either, but I still find it's moisturizing enough that it makes my feet a little less craked/dry even after 2-3 days.

Some of my empties from earlier this year. A lot of these were bought ~2 years ago. Actively panning has helped me a lot with impulse purchasing! 

[WhereYouStand]

kudos on using a whole blush it takes me a  long while to hit pan on any full size product like blush 🙂

[heartsmyface]

Looks great!  How many months is this?  

[kelloua]

Great work!  I bow down to you on those empty pans and used up nail polish.  (My polishes and top coats always seem to go bad before I can finish them.)  I definitely feel you on having some seriously old stuff in your stash.  I have some things I just need to toss but sometimes it's hard to do so (even though I know I don't like them/like other things in my stash better so it's unlikely I'll ever finish them).

[karap03]

Awesome empties! Impressed with your chapstick and lipstick completion. Looks like you get every last drop.

[Fernleaf]

This thread has really motivated me to use up products instead of using 75% of it and just looking at it and not wanting to finish it off.  Can anyone else relate to this?  

Here are the empties for the past couple of months.

I had to throw in the gelato, since it was sooo good.

[melash]

I am the poster child for using 75 percent and moving on to something new, so I feel your pain.😂 this thread has motivated me and I hope to post many empties in next couple of weeks. Thanks BTers.
