August Empties (Body Care)
Aveeno Repairing Cica Foot Mask
Results - Soft, baby smooth feet Aroma - None; Fragrance Free Texture - Plastic serum-line booties Expense - $3.99; Despite the struggle getting these on, I would still repurchase because my feet felt AMAZING!
Coola Classic Body Sunscreen SPF 50 (Guava Mango)
Results - Mixes well with my moisturizers, absorbs quickly, and leaves the skin looking glowy Aroma - Fruity and tropical Texture - Looks and feels like a body lotion Expense - $32 5.0 oz; I used my FSA funds to buy this sunscreen, so Iโm not really concerned about the price. However, this is not replacing my Supergoop! Everyday Sunscreen any time soon.
Coola Classic Body Sunscreen SPF 30 (Unscented)
Results - Works well for getting sun protection on hard to reach areas and reapplying throughout the day. Aroma - None Texture - Light, barely there mist Expense - $10 2.0 fl oz; I bought this for $5 at Nordstrom Rack, so I would definitely repurchase at that price. This would work nicely for reapplying sunscreen on the go, but youโll go through it very quickly.
Dove Shea Butter Dry Spray
Results - Dry armpits with no white residue Aroma - Smells like the Dove Shea Butter Body Wash Texture - Airy mist Expense - $5-$8 3.8 oz; The price I pay depends on sales and coupons, but I love it so much that it doesnโt really matter. This is my favorite deodorant!
Hempz Original Herbal Body Moisturizer
Results - Absorbs quickly and makes skin feel nourished Aroma - Kind of nutty and earthy, but also a little citrusy. Itโs not too strong, and it doesnโt linger. Texture - Thick and creamy Expense - $23 17 oz; I received this as a gift with purchase from Ulta, but I would absolutely purchase this again to use after washing my hands because it lasted forever!
Maison Margiela Replica Jazz Club Eau de Toilette
Results - Feels light on the skin, but heavy in the nostrils Aroma - Pure cheap musk Texture - Light spray Expense - $130 3.4 oz; YUCK! This will never become part of my fragrance collection. Sometimes I enjoy a menโs fragrance, but this was not one of them
Schick Intuition Pure Nourishment Coconut Milk & Almond Oil Cartridges
Results - I use this along with the Tree Hut Shaving Oil, and my legs feel incredibly soft and smooth. Aroma - Nutty Texture - Creamy Expense - $16.99 3 cartridges; I already have a new pack in the stash.
Soap & Glory Magnificoco A Cream Come True Luminous Body Butter
Results - Made my skin sparkle like a Twilight vampire Aroma - Sweet plastic smell; Doesnโt have the signature Magnificoco scent Texture - Thick cream Expense - $15 10.1 oz; I love the sparkle this gives, but itโs white based, so sometimes it makes my skin look a little ashy. Iโm up in the air about whether I would repurchase it.
Sol de Janeiro Glowmotions Copacabana Bronze Glow Oil
Results - Mixes well with my moisturizer and leaves me with sparkly skin. I didnโt notice any transfer to the clothes. Aroma - Something slightly sweet, but not that signature SDL scent Texture - Liquidy dry oil Expense - $35 2.5 oz; I bought this for $25, and I think thatโs a really good price for it. I might repurchase during a sale depending on my experience with other Glow Oils.
Tree Hut Bohemian Escape Shea Sugar Scrub
Results - Super smooth skin! Aroma - Tropical citrus Texture - Fine emollient sugar grains Expense - $8.99 18 oz; Tree Hut makes the best body scrub Iโve ever tried, and itโs almost always on sale at Ulta. Itโs a win-win situation!
Viktor & Rolf BONBON Eau de Parfum
Results - The bottle didnโt have a sprayer, so it was always difficult to apply. When I was able to get out enough product, I absolutely loved this light sweet scent during the spring and summer. Aroma - Sweet, Candy, Floral Texture - Expense - $68 1.0 oz; I like the scent. Iโm planning to get this the next time I cash in my Ulta points.
Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb Eau de Parfum
Results - Unique floral scent that lasts for HOURS! Aroma - Warm, Sensual Floral Texture - Medium to heavy fragrance Expense - $85 1.0 oz; I have loved this fragrance from first sniff! Itโs one of the best floral scents Iโve ever used, and I usually hate floral fragrances. I currently have the Petite Flowerbomb in my fragrance collection.
Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb Midnight Eau de Parfum
Results - The scent is a darker version of Flowerbomb, but the scent fades so quickly that in the end itโs forgettable. Aroma - Warm, musky floral Texture - Very light Expense - $85 1.0 oz; Despite the HG status of the original Flowerbomb, Midnight is lacking in the scent department. For $85, I would rather buy the original fragrance.
Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium Eau de Parfum
Results - The longevity can be hit or miss. Sometimes, it lasts all day. Sometimes, it only lasts a few hours. Aroma - Warm, Spicy Texture - Medium-body scent that is great for fall and winter Expense - $76 1.0 oz; I really like this fragrance, but itโs not a fragrance I would immediately repurchase.Couldn't agree more about the replica ๐ @sephoraaddict918
Nice empties @sephoraaddict918! ๐ Love your new review set up โฅ๏ธ and I love that Aveeno foot mask! So good!
Good to know about the B&BW candle @samkeaysxo. The jar is beautiful. Jasmine can be too overwhelming for me so I appreciate the heads up on how strong the scent it. Nice work on your empties!
@samkeaysxo, nice group of empties. ๐๐ผ Too bad the Touch in Sol primer wasnโt a winner for you; itโs been a good one to me lately. Iโm adding that B&BW candle to my list - so many of their candles on my list, I could make a whole new list just for their candles - ha!
For the last 2 weeks:
LOVES:
-Philosophy Snow Angel Shower Exfoliator (for the body) -- love love love this scent. Plus it's a nice gentle exfoliation and doesn't leave the shower slick like a lot of exfoliating creams seem to do.
-Coola Mineral Sun Silk Cream- Really enjoyed this. It wears well under makeup and didn't feel heavy or greasy. Some white cast though so blending it out is necessary.
-Shiseido Perfect Cleansing Oil- My absolute favorite first cleanse. It's rich without being heavy, isn't runny, gets all my makeup off, and just feels so luxurious.
-Benton Snail Bee High Content Essence- One of my absolute favorite products. This hydrates, helps heal acne, brightens- you name it. It's an absolute must in my routine.
And the "just OK" items:
Both were just kind of meh and I have other products that I prefer.
January Empties - This month I finished a total of 37 products 26 full-size and 11 deluxe samples/foils.
Ulta Beauty Holiday Animals Hydrating Sheet Mask - I used the Penguin and Polar Bear masks and finished the pack. The masks are okay overall, but light on the serum. I wouldnโt purchase again.
LโOrรจal Paris Pure-Clay Cleanser Detox-Brighten - Too heavily fragranced. Made my skin feel cool and tingly. Didnโt initially irritate my sensitive skin, but it did while I was washing it off.
Clinique Moisture Surge 72-Hour Auto-Replenishing Hydrator - Used as a sleeping mask. I wasnโt amazed by the results. This didnโt work well on top of my moisturizer, and it irritated my skin. I bought it during Ultaโs 21 Days of Beauty for 50% off. If you want to try this, then I suggest you do the same. For me, Iโm probably staying away from this one.
Elemis Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm - I tried this after using the rose balm and wasnโt a fan. The rose scent was too strong. I hoped the regular cleansing balm would have no scent, but I was wrong. This actually has a very strong patchouli/sage scent that was also off-putting. Also this product is way too expensive. The balm works very well, but the scent and the price will keep me away.
BareMinerals Complexion Rescue Defense - If you would fail the brown paper bag test, then you should stay far, far, far away from this sunscreen. #CasketReady Otherwise, itโs worth a try if you are looking for an easy-to-apply mineral sunscreen.
Fresh Vitamin Nectar Glow Juice Antioxidant Face Serum - My face started stinging as soon as I patted in the product. Itโs a no for me dawg.
Wow, look at all your empties @sephoraaddict918! ๐คฉ Excellent work! ๐๐ผ
