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 suddenly realized I had the wrong picture from Septembers hauls.I haven't tried the pore pudding yet(I have way to much skin care too).
October empties:
Great empties. Anything here you absolutely loved or hated?
Loved (would repurchase):
Liked (might repurchase):
Just Ok (probably wouldn't repurchase):
Hated:
September empties - thought I had finished way more stuff than that this month, but this was all I had in the empties bin.

I keep forgetting to open that Glow Tonic I purchased. How do you feel about that one? Should I open it now or wait until my toner is finished?
I purchased it thinking it was an after toner item like my Paula's Choice BHA. Then, I saw that it is called an exfoliating toner. I do not want to double tone. I've been using an Evanhealy toner for a few weeks. It smells awful, but it does not expire until next year. I assume it just smells bad all the time and not that it has gone bad.
@notcreative I quite like it because it's super gentle but still effective.
It has a nice scent, sort of like aloe vera and it's very light and watery. The only time I feel any sting is if I forget and accidentally use it after microdermabrasion.
I'm not familiar with the Paula's Choice, but the Pixi has AHA in it, so it probably depends whether your skin responds well to AHA vs BHA?
If it were me and I was using something I hated the smell of, I probably wouldn't finish it unless the scent dissipated as soon as I used it.
Thanks. Great advice.
The scent does dissipate, and I do not have any other issues with it. My issue was wondering if it went bad before its expiration, because I could not find reviews on what it should smell like. I would not purchase something with a scent like that unless the product gave me ethereal skin or something, so I will probably not use it again in the future.
I was reading the different benefits of AHA and BHA. My skin loves BHA, but I do not have a lot of experience with AHA. I want to use them both, but I would alternate. I would probably do BHA in the morning and AHA in the evening. I could still use the Evanhealy in the morning with the BHA, because it even recommends applying after toning.
I know how you feel. I'm currently trying to finish a bottle of Drunk Elephant's C Firma serum. It smells like mesquite, though it's made of fermented pumpkin. I don't care for it at all and will definitely not repurchase, but the smell dissipates soon after application so I'm trying to work through the bottle.
I think your plan sounds good. I'd perhaps incorporate the Pixi Glow every other day to start, just to make sure it isn't too much. If you skin can handle it, then I'd move up to using it it daily in the evenings and the other in the AM.
My second month collecting empties! I was satisfied that I got through quite a few products in September. Lots of good stuff and a few not so good!

Dionis at Ulta?? Get out of here, that's my favorite hand cream. I only get it from Cracker Barrel and didn't think to search elsewhere for it. Well, not like I shop at Ulta anyways but it's definitely good to know. I see that they have a body wash too. I might need to make a trip there or place an order.
Lol at Cracker Barrel!! I had never heard of the brand before but I really am liking their hand creams, and I ordered a lip balm so I'm excited to try that too! It definitely wouldn't be a bad idea for you to go check it out at Ulta 😉
Love the mini reviews. I've wanted to try that PTR mask for a while. Your review makes me feel better about waiting to purchase it.
Thank you! I had been really curious about it too - I'm glad I was able to get it during the labor day sale so I was only out a few dollars. If you don't have skin that's prone to breakouts it might work better, but for me I had 2 or 3 big honkers on my chin and cheek the next morning. There was tons of serum left in the packet that I could have saved, but I tossed it instead. I was disappointed since I know a lot of people love this mask!
My skin is mostly dry, but I still get breakouts. I will probably eventually try it, but I will not rush to do so.
September Empties!

Okay
Dislikes
It says dislikes, but I do not see any under it. Did you have any or did they get cut off?
No dislikes this month. A good month 🙂
These are actually August empties, never had a chance to upload. I still have a couple of days to use up some stuff for September but I doubt it will be as much.
Great job with the perfume vials. I'm impressed.
Thank you! You know I really wanted to decluttering my perfume samples, I've had some for years and really made an effort to use them up. A couple of them were only half full so it made it easier... Plus fragrance doesn't last on me, so I usually marinate in it. 😄
