Another round of Empties!

Spoiler

The Sol de Janeiro Beija Flor™ Collagen-Boosting Elasti-Cream with Bio-Retinol and Squalane 8.1 oz / 240... smells so good but I don't think I'll repurchase it; something about the texture of it makes it difficult to absorb into my skin very easily so it felt like a bit of a chore to use it.  I'll stick with the Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Crush Cheirosa ’68 Beija Flor™ Hair & Body Fragrance Mist 8.01 oz / 240 mL if I want the scent.

I've gone through a few of the Tatcha The Water Cream Oil-Free Pore Minimizing Refillable Moisturizer 2.5 oz / 75 mL over the years but I don't think I'll repurchase it going forward, either.  It's nice but these days I like something that feels a little more hydrating/moisturizing so I'll stick with the Tatcha The Dewy Skin Cream Plumping & Hydrating Refillable Moisturizer 2.5 oz / 75 ml instead.

The Off&Relax hair treatment was just OK, the nail polish remover is on constant rotation for me, and the Bumble and bumble Thickening Dryspun Volume Texture Spray was nice and I could see myself possibly buying it again although I ran through this can pretty quickly so it's not necessarily a great value for the price for me.

Spoiler

The only things that I didn't like were the The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% Oil Control Serum  (the texture is a little on the sticky side and it actually made my face feel oddly dry) and the Perricone MD lip oil (it smell/tasted awful).

Spoiler

I'm really making a dent in my foils!  Nothing too amazing here, though.

@CookieGirl1  awesome empties! It sounds like you have a good idea of what works for you and what doesn't. I'm glad a lot of these worked well for you!

[Mellmars1185]

Loved them all will repurchase, already have, or going too

Like these were lovely but found other alternatives that were better fits

Just okay comfort is key I didn’t find these to be as comfortable the Lawless I love but will repurchase in color daisy pink

Loved the Rare Beauty Sample will add to love at first sample I ordered one and I also loved the cleanser it worked very well and bubbled up it felt so good on the skin on my list to purchase

@peculiarzmakeup  awesome empties! Seems like you had a good mix of loves, likes, and others. I'm curious, what product(s) did you end up liking over the Farmacy Green Clean Makeup Removing Cleansing Balm ?

[peculiarzmakeup]

Thank you so much! 
Also great question,

I really love the Tatcha The Indigo Cleansing Balm Moisturizing Makeup Remover 1.9 oz / 54 g 

I love Farmacy products but the tatcha one is good for my skin. 

I appreciate it. I learn so much from my empties and seeing other people’s thoughts on theirs it’s so fun to reflect ❤️

@caitbird 

[caitbird]

@peculiarzmakeup  that is good to know, I have a sample of the Tatcha cleansing balm but haven't tried it yet, I am working my way through some full size ones first. But I have heard so many good things about it from people here, it seems like a lot of BIC folks really love it!

I agree, I love seeing everyone's feedback on what they liked and what they didn't!

[peculiarzmakeup]

That is definatley something to look forward too! That is a great way to go about it. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts when you try! 🦋 @caitbird 

[Mellmars1185]

@peculiarzmakeup Fantastic job!

[peculiarzmakeup]

Thank you it’s so nice to finish some and reassess what’s needed to stock up on. Appreciate it ❤️ @Mellmars1185 

[Samtian]

@peculiarzmakeup Wow great job!!!

[peculiarzmakeup]

Thank you so much! I love empties but I also like the full product haha 🫶 @Samtian

@peculiarzmakeup In the second picture, is that the Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Find Comfort Stop & Soothe Aromatherapy Pen 0.16 oz / 5 mL ?? I've been wondering if that's worth trying out - sounds like you really enjoyed it!
