"Fluffy goodness" is the best way to describe them, @sephoraaddict918! <333 It's made me happy to have spotted them at TJ Maxx / Marshalls...I *try* not to grab 'em all when I see them. To leave some for others to experience their amazingness. 🙂

Some empties finally - I had duplicates of certain items but now they are done 😫 love the Tata Harper and would recommend. I’m never out of Bum Bum Cream. I finished the whole box of face masks. Loved the Glow watermelon overnight mask and would recommend. No more rice polish from a Tatcha, I will replace as I absolutely love it. No7 overnight worked well, not great but good. I hated the smell so I won’t repurchase. Drunk Elephant sample and Youth to the People samples good but not enough to form an opinion other than I liked the whipped moisturizer sample. Next fragrance in a Cocoa Woods 😘 would probably buy a full size next time. Loreal pure sugar scrub is perfect for me and smells so good. On my third jar.

Hi @2manyperfumes ,

I am in need of another Bum Bum soon! I can't wait to restock!

Best wishes,

Janean

excellent empties!! bum bum is so great @2manyperfumes

2manyperfumes · ‎08-19-2019

I’ve yet to find anything else better

RebeccaBT · ‎08-18-2019

@2manyperfumes Awesome empties! How were the face wipes?

Best,
Rebecca

2manyperfumes · ‎08-19-2019

They were okay I like them with a bit more moisture but they do the job well. Sometimes I spray a bit of micellar water on them.

I’ve been super busy the last couple of months with selling our condo and moving halfway across the country so I’ve neglected to post my empties for June and July. But here they are...all are much loved products that are in my daily rotation. Best new product goes to The Ordinary Buffet with Copper Peptides. It makes my skin super hydrated and glowy when used in conjunction with the Drunk Elephant Protini moisturizer and is a much more affordable option than the Niod Copper Amino Isolate Serum. The only product that was kind of meh was the Amore Pacific Treatment Toner. I didn’t see any difference in my skin after using this product so any other toner would perform the same way.

Love the Alterna Caviar hair products @oceanics! 💜 Hope the move and settling in is going well.

RebeccaBT · ‎08-06-2019

@oceanics I agree with @JaneanBT ! I love those cotton pads 🙂

Best,
Rebecca

lmaster · ‎08-05-2019

excellent empties @oceanics hopefully the move went smoothly

howconnie · ‎08-05-2019

I kinda thought an expensive toner might be a waste of money.

JaneanBT · ‎08-05-2019

Hi @oceanics ,

This is a great set of empties! I love the Shiseido Cotton Pads. They are so soft!

Best Wishes,

Janean

July 2019 Empties

Feeling kinda awesome about the samples - well, the foils. I've got to work on some of my deluxe sample products.

DEVACURL - WAVE MAKER™ Touchable Texture Whip

Spoiler

One of my top 3 DevaCurl styling products. So appreciative of @faeriegirl for sending me extra samples of it.<DIV class="lia-spoiler-noscript-content">One of my top 3 DevaCurl styling products. So appreciative of  for sending me extra samples of it.</DIV>

DEVACURL - SUPERCREAM™ Coconut Curl Styler

Spoiler

Also in my top 3 DevaCurl styling products. This travel size was so convenient for my road trip. Now I just used it to take conditioner on a quick 4-day trip where I only had a carry-on. I'll probably refill it with other things in the future.<DIV class="lia-spoiler-noscript-content">Also in my top 3 DevaCurl styling products. This travel size was so convenient for my road trip.

CLINIQUE Dramatically Different Hydrating Jelly 4.2 oz/ 125 mL

Spoiler

I like having a gel like first step with hyaluronic acid followed by a more emollient or occlusive moisturizer. This was fine but I think it probably works better as a stand alone product which is not what I was looking for. It also had a slight maybe chemical smell when applied but that quickly disappeared. I'm going back to Vichy Mineral 89 to see if it's as nice as I remember. I'm also considering the The INKEY List Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Hydrating Face Serum 1 oz/ 30 mL<DIV class="lia-spoiler-noscript-content">I like having a gel like first step with hyaluronic acid followed by a more emollient or occlusive moisturizer.

Adidas perfume

Spoiler

So old, quite masculine. Thanks middle school self. Glad to be done with it.<DIV class="lia-spoiler-noscript-content">So old, quite masculine. Thanks middle school self. Glad to be done with it.</DIV>

Can't zoom in enough to get a name but body lotion from a hotel

Spoiler

Fine, just average. Had a light pleasant scent and it was nice to use it on my trip. Nothing to write home about.<DIV class="lia-spoiler-noscript-content">Fine, just average. Had a light pleasant scent and it was nice to use it on my trip. Nothing to write home about.</DIV>

Olay daily facials

Spoiler

In the okay category. Worked fine but seems wasteful.<DIV class="lia-spoiler-noscript-content">In the okay category. Worked fine but seems wasteful.</DIV>

Olay eye gel

Spoiler

I was able to use this 3 times. Had I been home and not on the road I would have been less sloppy and able to get more uses. Seems like a fine eye gel but not enough to truly rate it. I'd have to analyze the ingredients but I'd try it again.<DIV class="lia-spoiler-noscript-content">I was able to use this 3 times.

Olay whips

Spoiler

Seems like an okay moisturizer. Probably should be the horizontal (just okay thumb) vs. the leaning towards thumbs up. Minus the fragrance in the ingredients, it looked decent. It has niacinamide and sodium hyaluronate. Not something I will buy but I'd use other samples if I got them.<DIV class="lia-spoiler-noscript-content">Seems like an okay moisturizer.

Aquatowel and makeup removers

Spoiler

The aquatowel was much bigger. Both seemed to remove things and were freebies from hotels. I'm trying to find a cleansing oil and have less waste.<DIV class="lia-spoiler-noscript-content">The aquatowel was much bigger. Both seemed to remove things and were freebies from hotels.

LANEIGE - Water Bank Moisture Cream

Spoiler

I appreciated having two samples. Still it wasn't much time to judge a product. My gut was saying it's fine but it wasn't impressive. I haven't looked at the price but I think I'm sticking with CeraVe.<DIV class="lia-spoiler-noscript-content">I appreciated having two samples. Still it wasn't much time to judge a product.

JM Solution Cleanser

Spoiler

I received these adorable pods from @lmaster. They were super convenient for travel. They foamed and made my face feel clean but not squeaky clean which is good. I've been using the Holika Holika foaming cleanser and I think it's maybe a bit much for my fairly normal skin. Loved getting to try this out. Since I don't travel regularly I think having the individual packets would be overkill for regular cleansing but it was so nice to use. Thanks so much lmaster!<DIV class="lia-spoiler-noscript-content">I received these adorable pods from . They were super convenient for travel.

Thanks @RebeccaBT!

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

ShortErica · ‎07-31-2019

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