Seeing product empties is so satisfying 🙂
Post your weekly, monthly, quarterly, whenever-ly empties and let us know how you felt about them!
Previous Empties thread:
@quspork So far so good with the new Bakuchiol formula. I use it about every other night, alternating with a Vitamin C serum and sometimes Hyaluronic Acid serum.
Ah I see! I ultimately ended up going back to my belif aqua bomb, I love it more than all the other night creams I have tried.
Nice empties, @quspork!! Too bad about the Lapis oil!! What was up with the Lancer polish that made it bad?
@haleyvvvv I found the granules in the Lancer to be too harsh for my skin and difficult to rinse off cleanly. Others who like a "harsher" physical scrub might like this one better, but I really prefer a gentler scrub.
@quspork What didn't you like about the Wella hair oil? I have a couple samples of it, and was thinking of trying it.
@greeneyedgirl107 I wasn't a fan of the scent and overall the performance just wasn't there for me. I've had better luck with Bumble and Bumble Hairdresser's Oil and Healthy Sexy Hair Love Oil. The Wella has good reviews on Ulta though, so maybe you'll like it more!
@quspork Thanks for the info - it was helpful! I recently bought a Rubbermade organizer for all my boxes and boxes of samples, so I'm hoping to go through them all and start using them. I thought the Wella would be at the top of my list since I recall getting two samples, but from your input it sounds like a no-go as I've been sensitive to smells recently.
I hear you on the overloads of samples, @greeneyedgirl107! I went through and organized mine at the end of last year in an effort to try and use them up before they all go bad. Hopefully we can both make a dent in them this year!
@quspork I think part of the problem I have is that most of the samples I wind up getting aren't ones I'm particularly interested in. I usually give them to my sister, and when she goes through them she's like a kid in a candy store. Of course, I've never heard her actually say she used any!
Late posting - empties from the first half of February (and some from January that were missed)
So glad you enjoyed the Zoella soap! I am intrigued by the salmon and garlic sheet masks - interesting! @itsfi
@itsfi Look at all those empty Voluspa candles!!
im happy you like the rms! I actually use both the coverup and the foundation but I think I prefer the coverup formula!!
That's really good to know @ather! Thank you!! 🤗 I saw that they had a foundation and was wondering how it compared with the coverup. My "no buy" ends tonight and I may order a couple of samples of the uncover from The Detox Market in both the whole number and half-number shades to compare.
@itsfi Have you used any other products from rms?
I think I’ve been using 11 in the coverup and 22 for the foundation. The foundation is quite thick I do like it it just takes more time to blend out and I’m usually rushing in the morning so the coverup is super easy. I also love using my clean fingers to apply makeup in a hurry. I’m interested in hearing what you think about the half numbers. I don’t think they were out when I got mine.
The shades in this sample card were the half numbers but I didn't have the whole numbers to compare it to, so we shall see @ather. I read "quite thick" and "it just takes more time to blend out" and that confirmed that the foundation wasn't in the running. 😂 I haven't been super keen on spending too much time with foundation in the morning. The easier and faster, the better. lol. Maybe I'll try to change that in March and spend more time on makeup application. We shall see.
Great job on the empties (first half of February!!), @itsfi!! When I saw the garlic and salmon masks, and the comment about scents, at first I was like, gotta pick up the garlic one, but them being too fragrant with like florals is a disappointment.
@haleyvvvv, this particular Dermal line of sheet masks all seem to have very strong scents that linger. Great if you like the scent, but they were just too much for me. I don’t remember the regular line of Deemal sheet masks having such potent scents.
Thank you! I finished a handful of full size items early in the month, as well as some things that I’ve held onto for far too long. Seems that decluttering has been motivational for other areas as well! 😆 I’m happy to have finally finished off some of those hand creams - my aim is to not have so many of them (and so many partially used lip balms) at the bottom of my bag going forward! 😔
I'm always so impressed with how many foils you get through!! @itsfi look at all those delicious scented candles,, I'm so happy you liked the scent 🤗
Thank you @lmaster! 🤗 I did a couple of foil challenges two years ago that helped me figure out a good system for myself for incorporating samples into my routine. It also doesn’t hurt that most of the foils I have left are of skincare products that I like and know my skin responds well to. 😉 I’ve just been using them rather than saving them for travel.
They're so cute and smell amazing @CookieGirl1! A part of me wants to keep them as decorative pieces or to hold things, like hair ties or rings or q-tips or . . . but working on decluttering projects makes me think I should not now turn to hoarding candle votives.
Love the reviews @itsfi . I keep hoping that someone out there will tell me the SDJ Shampoo and conditioner are amazing... I just want my hair to smell like the bumbum cream. Maybe the hair mask will be a love.
You got through so many products this month. I'm super impressed.
I used to find that all I looked to Bioderma for was the miceller water, but then I did a bit of a dive into samples and found a few gems.
I also will sign the OH petition for the Power Bright... I may have hoarded a few packs upon finding them at Winners.
