Seeing product empties is so satisfying ๐
Post your weekly, monthly, quarterly, whenever-ly empties and let us know how you felt about them!
Previous Empties thread:
This is very impressive @blackkitty2014 even if it's 6 months of empties!! So sorry about the allergic reaction,, how long did it take for you to see this reaction? Or how long have you been using TO products?? Now I'm getting nervous
Oh no @blackkitty2014 what kind of reaction are you getting from The Ordinary products? Iโve only tried a few and I also had a strange reaction.
@GG84 @lmaster I have used the Ordinary products for 2-3 yrs now. My skin loves them. But starting beginning of this year, let say if I use them for night routine, the next morning, my eyelids/face swollen so bad. Even if Iโm trying to avoid the eyes about 2 days after, same thing with face. After 3-4 episodes liked that I donโt dare to try any Ordinary products again. I wonder if they change something or just my old skin acts up
Oh my goodness!!! @blackkitty2014 that's definitely not cool,, so sorry you are experiencing this reaction uughhh I hope this doesn't happen,, can I ask what products were you experiencing this with?
These 2. @lmaster As you can see I donโt have the heart throwing them out especially the Vitamin C Silicons ๐ข
@blackkitty2014 oh boy! Thank you for sharing this, I'm going to stay away from those two
@blackkitty2014 Oh wow... I wonder if The Ordinary had reformulated those 2 products in any way by the time you restocked them, or if this is one of those true allergic reactions that take months/years of accumulated exposure to surface. ๐ Iโm sorry this happened to you.
@WinglessOne I think my skin just acts up now that Iโm getting old. Sigh! I thin itโs one of the case that it takes years for the allergic reaction to kick in ๐ข
Wowwy @blackkitty2014! ๐๐ผ Looky those empties! You have some fabulous products here! ๐ Tatcha and AmorePacific! *swoons* Such amazing skincare! โฅ๏ธโฅ๏ธ
How did you like the Erborian mousse cleanser?
@itsfi That one is just okay. I wonโt replenish. I like the Tatcha and AmorePacific cleansers the most.
Itโs really hard to compete with the Tatcha and AmorePacific cleansers @blackkitty2014. They both have such elegant formulations. ๐ฅฐ

Another great month of empties @itsfi!!! I love how much the Vaseline Gel Oil makes my skin glow, but it's not enough moisture for my dry skin. I would probably need a cream to go on top, and that's too much, even for me. LOL
I want to move toward reusable cotton rounds too, but I still have 2 packs of the Shiseido Cotton Rounds. I wondering if I should just keep them around for backup instead of using them up.
I will have to try those CosRX patches. The ZitStickas didn't really work for me. I'm currently using the Truly pink acne patches. They are pretty good at getting rid of a small pimple overnight.
Hahaha @sephoraaddict918! ๐ I can completely understand that - sometimes itโs asking a lot, too much, to layer products for moisture for our skin.
Keeping the Shiseido cottons that you have as backup as you move to reusable rounds is a really good idea. The cottons will come in handy for travel as well as those days when you just canโt be bothered to launder the reusable rounds. ๐
Iโll have to try the Truly patches. Iโm always game for trying out acne patches; sadly I have the blemishes to use as test cases. ๐ My top 3 acne patches (so far) are Peace Out acne dots; these CosRx pimple patches and the ones by Peach Slices.
๐ the ciate pots. Wish Sephora still sold them! Might have to remember about that amethyst candle. My mini loves & collects gemstones. He even carries them around in his pocket @itsfi ๐
Oh my goodness @sonnydee, how cute is your mini?!! ๐ฅฐ Whatโs his favorite color or gemstone?
The Ciate pots are great! ๐ Thank you so much for introducing them to me. Came in handy!
He really likes geode agates. We often buy the uncut rocks so he can cut them himself with hubs. We go "mining" every chance we get. Last time we went, he got alot of smoky & rose quartz. He took all mine I had collected from my teenage years but I think he loves it more than I do so I didnt have the heart to take them back. I dont even know if he has a favorite..he carries 5 or 6 around..๐คI'll have to take a pic of his stash for ya! @itsfi
So many great empties @itsfi ! Iโve been loving the F-Balm so far, I use it under the LaLa Retro at night and my dry skin loves this combination. On itโs own, it wasnโt moisturizing enough during the cold dry winter months but it should be great during summer. ๐
Using it as a serum seems to get the best out of the product; that seems be the consensus among many folks here @keana1. Iโll give it a try with my miniโs of the mask.
@itsfi Itโs really worth a second chance as a serum . ๐ค
@itsfi Nice set of empties! This reminds me that I planned to give F-Balm a second chance once temps warm up, because it was ineffective during winter. Iโll pull it out again soon.
