@caitbird Thank you! Yes it is a good one. I have a few to finish up but it will definitely be a repurchase once I am through my stash of cleansers ☺️

[faeriegirl]

Awesome job @Mellmars1185 !

[Mellmars1185]

@faeriegirl Thank you!

[Mellmars1185]

@CynthieLu Thank you very much! I was happy to empty my empties bag. It was getting full!

My little Empties bin was filling up so it was time.

The Main Street Bakery is the wild card here; it smells like banana pudding for the first two or three burns and after that I swear, it just smells like butter in the weirdest way possible.

-The Cinnamon Bun scrub smelled FABULOUS
-The Garnier shampoo was actually pretty good!  Might pick it up again someday.
-Kerastase Premiere set: still on the fence on these.  Not bad but not my favs.
-Bluebird Lacquer's Cranberry Cobbler body butter was more like a lotion rather than a butter but the scent was like Christmas in a jar.  I hope it's releases again next year,

-Historically I've been a huge fan of the Lancome Monsieur Big mascara but I think it's been dethroned *gasp* by the YSL Lash Clash mascara.  The entire time that I was using the tube of MB this time around I kept wishing that I was using Lash Clash instead.
-I'm surprised by how much I hated the GR Plum Plump moisturizer!  It smelled disgusting and I found the texture to be so odd because it was almost greasy-feeling (and looking) even on my dry skin but it didn't feel like it actually hydrated my skin.  

Spoiler

-The standout here was the Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Watery Sungel.  I have a full size on the way to me because I loved this!

Spoiler

-The best of the bunch were the Patchology eye gels.  I LOVE those when my eyes are tired or day and I swear I can see a major difference after using these gels.

Spoiler

-Declutters; RIP Melt Blushlighters.  I've had these since they were first released (three or four years ago now?) and I really enjoyed them until recently.  Over the last few months I've noticed that they've changed in texture, they apply so patchily whenever I try to use them, and they just don't last on my skin like they did when they were newer and fresher.  As a result I don't want to wear them anymore so it's just time to let them go.

Excellent job @CookieGirl1 ! 

[Samtian]

@CookieGirl1 Rip Melt products. Great job on everything else! Even the weird texture and smelling stuff. 

[Mellmars1185]

@CookieGirl1 Great batch of empties! 

[CynthieLu]

Wonderfull work this month @CookieGirl1 💝🎉

Sorry to hear your blushes expired on you. You got a few years out of them, that's impressive! 😄

Oooh GR Plum Moisturizer is a huge favorite of my skin,  such a bummer it was a huge miss for you. Hopefully you are on to something fabulous for your skin soon. 

[CookieGirl1]

@CynthieLu Yeah, I'm pretty happy with getting a few years' worth of use out of the blushes.  They were super-pretty when they were in their prime but now they're kind of...chunky.

[CynthieLu]

3 years is pretty fantastic @CookieGirl1 👌👌

[CorgiMommy]

Great empties!  You use some amazing products 

[caitbird]

@CookieGirl1  great empties! I have heard good things about that YSL mascara.

[CookieGirl1]

@caitbird I LOVE it.  It's very volumizing and it doesn't budge whatsoever.

[makeitup305]

@CookieGirl1 nicely done! You got through so much stuff this month.

[lmaster]

Ysl lash clash you say?? Lol @CookieGirl1 butter?? Ewwww idk how I'd feel about that!! Great empties

[CookieGirl1]

@lmaster Yves Saint Laurent Lash Clash Extreme Volume Mascara definitely has left other mascaras in the dust for me.  And the butter scent was...interesting.  Not necessarily a fav, lol.

[blackkitty2014]

Well you did hit pan in one blush even before they start to turn so I still call it a success @CookieGirl1 👍 Great jobs
