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:
November empties!
my fav foundation Summer Fridays Sheer Skin Tint with Hyaluronic Acid + Squalane Shade 2 and 4
SEPHORA COLLECTION Triple Action Cleansing Water - Cleanse + Purify # works great! 😊
@ather awesome empties! All full size, wow! Do you mix the 2 shades of foundation, or do you use them for different times of the year?
@caitbird I use both ways. Winter I usually use 2 and summer 4 and for the in between I use both!
November 2024 Empties
Month-to-Date = 32 (includes November Foils)
Year-to-Date = 404
Emoji Key:
Products with a love or above rating are generally ones I would repurchase (or have already repurchased), unless I have a GOAT product in that category that is better suited for my skin under certain circumstances or conditions. Items with that I consider "great" 🌟 or that I "like" 👍 may or may not be repurchased, depending on what is currently in my collection.
🐐= GOAT = Greatest Of All Time (have gone through at least two of the particular product and other comparable items)
😘= Chef’s Kiss = Outstanding - think of this as GOAT status in the making 😉
❤️= Love
🌟= Great, better than a like but not quite a love
👍= Like
😕= Okay; “It’s fine.”; “meh”
🔬= Undecided = “Still looking into it”
🙊= Not for me, my preferences or skin type
🙅🏻♀️ = ❌ = “No, non, nein, nyet, …”
@itsfi Wow!!!! 🤩 amazing job! How did you get through so many great items??? Wow! All those candles too! Good job!!
Thank you @ather! Some of these products have taken me more than 2 years to use up, like the Kerastase. Timeline for others, like the Eadem serum, is months, depending on how often I use them - I use the Eadem pretty much daily, sometimes twice per day. This time of year, I have at least one candle burning (though it's often more than one) when I'm home so I can go through a good number of candles in fall and winter.
Ooh I absolutely love those nail polish removing wipes too @itsfi! They are the best I've tried 👌 And so easy to take anywhere. I love effective and easy to use products. 😀 Where did you find yours? They only seem to carry these at random drug stores here but I but then wherever I stumble across a pack a grab one.
@CynthieLu, I've only found these Cutex polish removers in Target (my recollection is that Target's in house brand has a good one too). I'll grab a couple boxes when they go on sale. I find they do a good job with removing nail toppers or polishes with glitter/flakies, ones with some texture to them. Out of curiosity, which other brands have you tried for individually wrapped nail polish removers?
@itsfi awesome empties! You have gotten through a lot of products this year & month! I loved reading your little mini-reviews of everything, especially all the candles. I've never tried Threshold candles, but I may have to check them out! I feel the same way you do about pumpkin scents - a bit hit or miss for me, some of them are too cloying - but this one sounds really nice. Out of curiosity, which Laneige lip mask scent is your favorite? I think I've only tried the berry one, but I know they have a ton of different ones now.
@caitbird, I love that you love candles, too! I have a handful of candle brands that I tend to gravitate towards - niche brands, local indie ones, mainstream brands, etc. Of the mainstream ones, Target's Threshold and Trader Joe's have some great candles. 💗
@itsfi I was never a candle person until this year, and all of a sudden I've discovered that actually, I love them 😅 what can I say, I've never been good at doing things halfway 😂 it's definitely fun to try different candle brands, and see what brands others in BIC are picking up! I wish there was a Trader Joe's near me; I think there is a Target not too far from here so maybe a field trip is in order one of these days...🤔🤣
November empties and declutter:68 (410/500)
I don't know if I'll make my goal of 500 for this year, but I'll be decently close 🙌
@lmaster Wow great job! That’s a huge declutter pile! I agree I am not buying as much too. I see more thrown out than I keep!
@lmaster awesome empties, and way to go with all those declutters! I have been slowly working on inventorying my beauty collection and doing a bit of decluttering in the process, and I agree, it is really eye opening how much stuff I have vs how much I actually use 😅 good for you for adjusting your purchasing habits to what works better for you! I am still working on that 😂
@lmaster Good job! I agree; decluttering is definitely a wake-up call. Now, if you have a suggestion on how to recall that feeling at will, please share it with me. 🙂
Thank you 😊 @Ispend2much6 I just remind myself constantly lol I like money, lipstick could be used in trade maybe one day..
Amazing work this year, 410 is such a big number! 💪 @lmaster I admire you toning down purchase's and decluttering your stash. It really puts everything in perspective and see how easy it is to acquire vs actually use up.
@CynthieLu as much as I still have fomo at times, I've toned down quite a bit over the years 🤣 thank you lovely
@lmaster wow, that is so awesome. Even if you don't make it you that is still a very impressive amount of empties.
