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.

Cake Beauty Vanilla Snow Woman - found in one of the boxes that returned after our flood. Love Cake hand creams.

DDG Ferulic + Retinol Wrinkle Recovery Peel - I love this peel, I just don’t use it regularly. Makes my face so smooth and bright.

Garnier Fructis Coconut Mask - another great nourishing hair mask from the drug store. I like to comb it in and leave it overnight.

Masque Bar Anti Blemish Mud Mask - very effective mud mask; dries out blemishes, tightens pores.

Masque Bar Green Tea Sheet Mask - one of my faves from MB; fits well, hydrates, leaves skin brightened.

Mediheal Tea Tree Sheet Mask - good for treating blemishes.

Face Shop Honey Sheet Mask - very nourishing and fits well.

DeMamiel Spring Facial Oil - one of my fave oils from DM, aside from their Summer oil. Nourishes the skin without leaving it oily.

Boscia Vitamin C Brightening Mask - fits nicely, love the 2 pc hydrogel and doesn’t irritate my vit c sensitivity.

Holika Holika Black Tea Mask - very hydrating.

Farmacy Eye Dew - my HG eye cream. I’ve just pulled out the re-named ‘Dew It All’ and am hoping the ingredients haven’t changed.

:S

Spoiler

Farmacy Clear Bloom - not bad, but thin, messy and doesn’t emulsify easily enough with water.

Clarisonic Pedi Brush - Pedi doesn’t rotate fast enough for this to be effective, IMO.

BB Texture - leaves hair a little too crunchy, rather than touchable.

Shiseido Cotton - it’s cotton.

Mahalo Heart of Summer - glad I persevered but I don’t like this. It doesn’t smell nice and did nothing for me.

Masque Bar Luminizing Charcoal Peel Off Mask - this type of packaging is too messy and difficult; should be in a tube.

Province Apothecary Detoxifying Clay Mask - hands down the worst smelling clay mask I’ve ever tried. I couldn’t use it more than once because it smelled so bad but the one time results didn’t wow me.

PTR Acne Spot & Area Treatment - old, dried out, too sulfurous.

Clarisonic Pedi Buff - see above re: Pedi Brush.

Masque Bar Silver Foil Sheet Mask - I put it on wrong at first, and even when I corrected it, I didn’t notice the foil making any sort of difference.

Tony Moly Makgeoli, Rice, Broccoli Sheet Masks - as I mention monthly, just trying to finish my stash of TM masks; I don’t find they fit well and they’re too drippy.

Face Shop Mung Bean Sheet Mask - this was just ok; didn’t smell nearly as bad as I would’ve expected. Skin felt a bit tight afterwards.

Love your empties @Mochapj

I feel your pain on Farmacy Clear Bloom. I bought 2 bottles of it when Farmacy was on Gilt City, and am so disappointed. The bottle is so pretty though, would make a good soap dispenser. But The product has the scent of vegetable oil🤨 Burt’s Bees has a nice cleansing oil. Sorry it wasn’t that great, @Mochapj.

[Mochapj]

@eshoe You’re right, it does smell like veg oil 🤣

i wouldnt be surprised if they end up discontinuing it now that they have clean bee liquid cleanser.

[eshoe]

Yep, @Mochapj. I am debating on even finishing the 1st bottle. I have 3/4 of it left🙄

[KeriCherryDee]

.... and suddenly there was nothing left in the can! Living Proof Perfect Hair Day dry shampoo deluxe sample; this came either in a Sephora Play box or as part of a gift set (can’t actually remember which). My first dry shampoo I’ve ever used and it’s mostly good. It doesn’t leave a white cast in my (dyed) dark red hair and it does help give some body and texture. However, I feel like the end of the night I need to use it again because it gives my hair a slippery softness that could be mistaken for oiliness if anyone else knows what I mean. I have four other dry shampoo samples to use up and I try to not use a lot of product in my hair, so I doubt I will repurchase

I spent a month in Colorado, so these are all my empties from the trip. (I took them last minute, so they are a little disorganized.)

Loves and likes:

Spoiler

Repurchases: Boscia Clear Complexion Cleanser, DE C-Firma. 
Things I will repurchase: Leaders Mediterranean Sheet Mask, Whish Renewing Mud Mask, Origins Rose Clay Mask, Cocokind Chapstick, Naobay Lotion, Soothing Animal Sheet Masks, Hask Bamboo Oil Strengthening Shampoo + Conditioner.

Things that I liked, but maybe not enough to repurchase now: Herbivore Lapis Oil, DDG Alpha Beta Peel, Skin Laundry Gentle Foaming Face Wash (plastic Sephora samples), Avocado and Honey Sheet Masks, Alterna Caviar Shampoo + Conditioner.

I don't think the Living Proof de-frizz line defrizzes my hair well enough, but it cleaned it just fine.

 I didn't like any of these!

Didn't like the sheet masks, but I DO like the Cocokind Mint Chapstick.

@snoflakefaerieUnidentified

Did your Ulta bubbling mask bubble at all? Mine didn't 😥

[snoflakefaerie]

It didn't, @RGbrown. It was just sort of foamy? If you can't tell from my face, I was very unimpressed.

@snoflakefaerieUnidentified

Unimpressive, indeed. And sadly, that's actually a ton more bubbles than mine had. Ah well, at least it's one thing neither of us feels the urge to spend money on later 😂

Here are my empties for July! I wasn't too excited about anything new I tried this month. The UD setting spray, Ren primer, Gimme Brow, and shadow primer are daily products for me. The DG peel pads are still one of my favorite ways to treat myself and I found a renewed love for Diorshow Mascara. I have determined that I hate Better Than Sex Mascara, couldn't even bring myself to use the last of what was left.

[Anonymous]

I hated the better than sex mascara. The worst part is I spent the twenty something dollars on it. I would have been less upset if I spent 12 dollars on the travel size. My favorite is the benefit roller lash! I pay for the 12 dollar travel size. I’m at my second tube. 🙂

[Shelbstirr]

@Anonymous I haven't tried Roller Lash yet but I have one in my collection of minis to get through! I've heard good things about it.

[Anonymous]

You must be the pickiest person ever to not like that one! Lol 

im not saying it’s the best but you won’t be dissappointed.

[Glarson]

@Shelbstirr What was it about the Too Faced mascara that you hated? I have tried a few tubes of this mascara and for me it is constantly hit or miss. I've gotten some tubes that are amazing and make my lashes look so full, but I've also bought some tubes that ended up flaking all over my face. Because of this inconsistency in quality I decided not to purchase any more of these mascaras, but did you also run into a flaking issue?
