@Mellmars1185 Thank you! I'd love to know what they are. 

[Mellmars1185]

@Samtian I want to set a goal for empties. I dont know what is reasonable though. I am so many in stock at home and i have a ton of samples! Maybe i will do a monthly goal of 10

[Samtian]

@Mellmars1185 It's a good idea to start small and easy and make adjustments if you need to later on! I work on my panning and empties at the same time, they are basically the same thing haha. My pan project is 102 items out of 765+ so my empties goal of 100 will be about on target with that one.

Here are a few empties I accumulated over the month. Most I would repurchase or are repurchases. I’m trying to add some samples into my daily routine and I’m glad to have discovered the Sol de Janeiro shower cream-gel. This stuff smelled incredible. I don’t notice any lingering fragrance after the shower but it turns a simple shower into a luxury experience. I’ll pick that up once there’s a sale during the Spring. The YTP cleanser cleansed my skin but I’m already happy with what I have. SKII was a repurchase but I have since moved on and really feel a difference in my skin with the Tatcha essence I purchased recently. The rest are staples I use daily with the exception of the BITE gloss in Dirty Chai. Although it smells fine I think it turned rancid. The taste definitely changed. It’s unfortunate because I really do enjoy this shade and formula. I only used about a third of it.

Totally agree with you @mishanyc about the SDJ shower gel.  It makes me smile, especially in the dead of the winter!

Thirding the love for the SDJ shower gel!! @missjeanie @mishanyc

@mishanyc  Interesting about the bite. I had one went bad too that I threw out last week.

November Empties

😍😍

Most I would definitely repurchase! Some I already have!

Likes 😊

 Wouldn’t repurchase the nail polish remover as it took forever to remove the polish. The Lauren B nail serum was ok, they price tag is crazy and I think my nails grown fine when eating healthy. Drunk Elephant is ok, I prefer the Paulas Choice though. The bareminerals was nice I accidentally dropped the wand in the sink so had to get rid of it.

[missjeanie]

@jen81 Some of my faves in your top tier there as well.  I've yet to find a dry shampoo I like better than the Amika.

I see so many great products here!! 

[QueenMarceline]

@jen81 Great job! I love Amika products, how did you like that one? Also the TLC babyfacial from DE is amazing! Lasts me forever.

[lmaster]

@jen81 good to know you prefer the Paula's choice over the DE

[BluePaisley]

Wow look at all those empties! Great job!

 these oozoo bears are getting harder and harder to pop the serum bubble

The biossance I'm still giving another sample a try. The sdj hair mask didn't dry my hair, but didn't really hydrate it either

[haleyvvvv]

That Oozoo bear mask was nearly impossible for me to pop as well, @lmaster!! 

[lmaster]

@haleyvvvv its too bad because the concept is so cute!

[missjeanie]

@lmaster totally agree on the SDJ hair mask.  The scent was the best part for me.  It's also possible I'm so long past due for a haircut  that most masks aren't up to the task.  Cinnamon Spiced Vanilla... I need to get back into burning candles more... that sounds just wonderful!

[lmaster]

Oh yes!! It just sets the mood for happiness! @missjeanie 😊

[QueenMarceline]

@lmaster Bummer about the SDJ mask, I've been eyeing it but I honestly already have masks I love so it's probably best to skip it as well. 

[lmaster]

@QueenMarceline the SDJ dry shampoo is also a huge no! I think I've learned my lesson with this brand, and I'll just stick to the body care products 🙂
