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.

I was trying to make it an even two weeks, but my bag was getting full.

The Tata Harper is a good physically exfoliator if you're mainly into chemical... very fine-grained. Most of the "likes/mehs" I like enough to keep scoring travel sizes, just not enough to buy outright.

My skin just doesn't seem to like sleeping masks in general. The "invisible" Bite liner isn't great on dark lips.

That's a great amount of empties, @fieldsofclover!  Good job working on your stash!

[fieldsofclover]

@curlychiquita Thanks! I've definitely been putting a dent in the foils lately.

@fieldsofclover  Love your cute graphics! It's too bad that the Bite invisible liner didn't work for you. I have dark lips too and this reminds me - I need to try the mini I have of this!

[fieldsofclover]

@Guessgal I hope you have better luck than I did! I really wanted to like it... had the usual slight minty aura too.

How do you use micellar milk?

[fieldsofclover]

@Anonymous I only use it to take off eye makeup in the evening, then double-cleanse like normal. Just keeps me from having to use a lot of extra balm to get everything off.

Nice @fieldsofclover! I bought one of each the leaders masks that Ulta carries after your suggestion! 🙂 I haven't tried them yet but I noticed Costco online has some of them!

[fieldsofclover]

@Lazybeautybeast They're all nice on their own, but I'm also starting to like that aloe one for multimasking after using something more intensive.

I really like the PTR Water Drench Cloud Serum.  I thought I'd found a dupe from Trader Joe's but after further testing and comparing, I've come to the conclusion that I prefer the PTR one, although it's pricey, I will repurchase.

The Caudalie VineActiv Eneregizing and Smoothing Eye Cream is not bad but it doesn't stand out from others.  It's hydrating, yes, it feels nice, yes but I don't think it does much for my under eye wrinkles.  I'm not sure I'll repurchase but if I get a deluxe sample I of course will use it up.  Still on the hunt for my holy grail eye cream.

Glad to hear about the PTR serum, @b3autygrl!

If you lie TOCCA Florence, you should give Giulietta a try - it smells so good that I talked myself into buying the big bottle! @cindyvonlovely

Thanks for sharing , @cindyvonlovely! I love seeing people's "loves"!

I've missed this thread. These are most of my empties for the past 15 months (some were tossed before I could share). My reviews are way too long to attach, but I will answer any questions anyone has. 

[heartsmyface]

WoW!  15months!   That must’ve been quite the bin to go through!  I was overwhelmed when I hit three months.   It’s cool to see over a years worth of product use.  Did you learn anything about your product usage?  @notcreative

[notcreative]

The ones with the white towel were taken over a year ago before I moved out of my house (just had not shared the reviews anywhere yet). All the others were stockpiled in many bags under all the bathroom sinks. I ran out of room for bags so I had to share them. As long as they are out of sight, I do not mind them. 

[heartsmyface]

Hehe, I try to contain things to one cotton Sephora  tote or I go a little crazy.  I still get the side eye from dear hubby regarding my stashing garbage even though I’ve expalined to him the purpose behind it.  He teases me but you can tell there’s some honesty in his judgement. 😄 @notcreative

Wow thats a lot of stuff @notcreative! How did do you like the Changing Magic Foot peeling shoes? I got one a while ago but have been a bit apprehensive to try? Did you find it worked?

[CC3616]

@Aaliaa I had the same experience as @notcreative with them. Took about 5 days to peel, and peeled for about a week after that. Did not come off in one big sheet/peel. Was very flakey and had to wear socks the whole time to keep flakes out of the bed/off the floors etc. The process was kind of gross in that sense but the results were definitely noticeable and I bought more with the ulta 20%. 

[Aaliaa]

Thanks for the info @CC3616 @notcreative! Glad to know the peeling starts later and I should wear socks, will definitely time it accordingly!
