@ShortErica Love seeing your thoughts! Great job using up some foils 🙂

Best,
Rebecca

[ShortErica]

Thanks @RebeccaBT!

[lmaster]

@ShortErica glad to hear you got some use out of them!

[ShortErica]

I'm glad I asked what they were @lmaster. At first I had no idea but now it makes sense. Thanks again!

My empties update. I do one approximately every 3 months when my empties bag is full.

I used up:

Full sized products: 18

Deluxe samples: 16

Foil samples/ packets : 62

Sheet masks/ one use treatments: 21

Eye/Lip patches : 21

Declutter: 6

Spoiler

My favorites are Shiseido Cottons,
UD Quick Fix, Sephora collection Micelar Water, Clinique Eye Makeup remover, Goodal Toner, Glow Recipe Watermelon Mist. All of these I would definitely repurchase. The only thing I didn’t like was the EOS Hand Cream. The rest was ok but nothing overly exciting. 

Spoiler

Favorites and I would buy a FS - Laneige moisturizer and essence, Drunk Elephant C-Tango, LaLa - this was the old formula that was too heavy for me (especially now during summer) but I tried the new one and I like it much better. I would buy the new one. Kinda unimpressed with AESOP so far. I tried few products but didn’t find anything that would wow me yet. Kinda bummer as I thought I would love that brand. Also liked the Ole and Dr. Jart.

I have ridiculously large stash of these foil samples. To use them up about month ago I started Beauty Samples Sunday on my IG. Every Sunday I pick around 7-10 samples and try to use them up.m then next Sunday I post an update and select new ones. This makes more accountable and forces me to follow through. In my last empties I had around 20 foil samples now I have over 60 so it’s definitely working for me. 
Favorites: Kate Somerville Serum and moisturizer 2 in 1 ( I think I will get this with my ULTA points next time there is 20%off coupon), L’occitane Almond body lotion (this is amazing but quite expensive), Vitaliberata Tanning cloths (easy to use, very natural color), Murad Retinol Youth Renew Eye Serum (perfect consistency), Bliss Incredi-peel. All of these I would give it a try and buy a FS.
I really hated the dpHUE ACV apple cider vinegar scalp scrub - this tangled my hair so much I thought I would never detengle them again . Big no. Also I hated the smell of La Mer.

Nice work on those foils @katkapivarci! 😊 It’s such a great feeling to use them up!

Hi @katkapivarci ,

I always feel so proud when someone finishes their SPF! Also amazing job with the samples! I gotta work on using mine! 

Best Wishes,

Janean

Oh no @katkapivarci, you noticed that much of a difference in the old and new formulations of the DE La La?  

[lmaster]

excellent pile of empties @katkapivarci

Favorite ones : oh K! Hydrogel Mask, Dr.Jart Firming Solution, Clean & Clear Jelly sheet mask, Sephora Collection Green Tea, all JJYoung by Caolin lab masks, Masquology Watermelon.
Sephora hair mask didn’t have enough product in it for all my hair which was a bummer because otherwise it felt and smelled really good.
I hated the O2 Bubble mask. I hated that bubbly feeling on my face. This was a first time I tried bubble mask and I’m not a  fan.  

I love most of these so i just mention those i didn’t like : KNC Beauty lip mask and Rose Lip mask - they were not hydrating at all and were sliding off. Yes to 2 step eye mask - horrible HORRIBLE product. First step - the patches - they stung and were sliding off. Second step -the cream- was so oily and heavy not pleasant to apply or have on face at all. Big No!

DECLUTTER 
Sephora Collection Eye Pencil, Clinique Mascara dried up. I loved that Clinique and used it a lot. SC pencil was kind of surprise that it dried up
so quickly. The color was very pretty and unique for eye pencil.
Caudalie Spray Water, Eos Balm, Hourglass Lipstick all
have weird smell
so that’s why I’m decluttering them.
Benefit - I don’t like this type of brow product anymore. iI prefer pencils and gels.

Uuuuufffff, this was so long and took forever. Thank you to whoever reads all of this. If you have any questions do ask!! I love trash talk😊

A week of empties and full of loves. Isn’t it funny how all your “big” products always seem to run out at the same time?

What is with this lighting

[l8totheparty]

Its always extra nice to get through the big things. @scott1201 

[CC3616]

@scott1201 I feel like I run out of tons of big things every few months at the same time too!

[CookieGirl1]

@CC3616 @scott1201 I'm going to be in the same boat this month!  I was looking at my Empties bin a couple of days ago and realizing that I'd gone through several larger staple items this month while my last couple of months have been pretty pathetic.

Hi @scott1201 ,

Great set of empties! I really like the Lancome Big Monsieur Mascara! I also feel so good when I finish a lotion or body wash. 

Best Wishes,

Janean

[ShortErica]

So true @scott1201! My last empties had a few full size all lumped together. Which was your favorite mask of the empties?

[lmaster]

my weekly empties, everything was pretty nice

[PenelopeBT]

I'm so impressed by your masking routine. I'm lucky if I get through 3 a week. My goal is to eventually mask 5x a week. <333

The bubble tea mask is so cute @lmaster !

[lmaster]

@CC3616 it was pretty nice too 😉
