Hey loves! I have not done an empties post since I did my no buy in January of this year. I have been collecting products since then and I have probably thrown a few away but I still have a lot of stuff that I have used up. I am still trying to whittle down my collection a little bit at a time. These are some of my favorite posts to do and read I feel like you actually see what someone thinks of products if they like them or would they repurchase! I am hoping to make these post more often so they don't end up quite so large! Lets jump into this massive empties...
L'Oreal Voluminous Carbon Black Mascara- Not only is this a holy grail product of mine it is a cult favorite. I obviously am a mascara freak and went through 5 in the past few months. I will repurchase and will always recommend to others.
Maybelline Line Stiletto Ultimate Precision Liquid Eyeliner in Blackest Black- This is another product that I continuously repurchase. I like this because it has a felt tip and is not in a pen form. I will repurchase and recommend to anyone who likes a dark blacker line that doesn't flake or smudge.
Jordana Best Lash Extreme Volumizing Mascara in 301 Black- I purchased this because I heard amazing things but I do not like it. I thought the formula was a little off and I noticed the mascara flaking. I thought the tube dried up quickly but I did like the brush. I would not repurchase.
Jordana FabuLiner Liquid Eye Liner in 01 Black- Another product I purchased off of recommendations that I ended up not liking. I don't really like pen form liquid liners. I thought the pigmentation was less than good and I noticed the line fading throughout the day. I will not repurchase.
Revlon Brow Fantasy in Dark Brown- This used to be my holy grail brow product for years. I have been using Anatasia Dip Brow instead recently. I do want to purchase this for my purse to be used as a touch up product. I would recommend to anyone who wants a pencil/gel from the drugstore to fill in their brows.
L'Oreal Power Volume Collagen in Black- I don't think there was a real reason why I purchased this mascara besides that it is made by L'Oreal which makes my holy grail mascara. I do like the brush because it has bristles not a rubber wand. The formula was dry and mine had a weird smell. I would not repurchase.
CoverGirl Clump Crusher by Lashblast in Very Black- I purchased this because everyone was raving about how great this mascara was. I should of listened to myself and known I would of hated this because I hate the Lashblast in the orange tube by Covergirl. I hate rubber brushes and I thought the wand was too big for my eye shape. I will not repurchase.
Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser Dark Circles Treatment Concealer in Neutralizer & Light- I love this concealer! I use this to highlight my under eye area and down the bridge of my nose. I prefer the shade light over the Neutralizer shade. I think it is the drugstore version of MAC's Prolong Wear Concealer. I will continue to repurchase and will continue to recommend to others.
Covergirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3 in 1 Foundation + Sunscreen SPF 20 in Buff Beige- Another holy grail product of mine. If you like full-coverage and long wearing foundation then this is for you. I like that the foundation has an SPF included for the summer months. I do sheer this out with lotion for the summer months. I have a bottle I am currently using but will repurchase after that is gone.
Revlon Colorstay Foundation for Combination/Oily Skin in 180 Sand Beige- I have used this foundation on and off for years. I always find myself going back to this when I am not loving my other foundations. This gives such good coverage and is available in 2 formulas and wide range of colors. Currently have a bottle but will repurchase and recommend.
Urban Decay de-slick Makeup Setting Spray- This is the first bottle that I have used up of this product. I had always heard a million things about settings sprays but had only tried the MAC Fix+ which isn't as good as this spray is. If you need to wear your makeup for hours and have oily skin then you need to have this in your routine. I am almost done with my current bottle and have recently purchased a back up! Join the setting spray family and grab one!
Sonia Kashuk Primer Perfecting Transparent Mattifying- I am always on the hunt for a good facial primer. My skin is acne prone and super oily. I always have problems keeping foundation or concealer on my nose. This primer did help my foundation stay but I don't love the silicone feel. I might repurchase but I haven't yet.
Urban Decay Primer Potion Original Sample- I used to use this eye lid primer daily but I feel like I have become used to the formula so my eye shadow doesn't stay as long. I have a few other samples of this product I will use but I have a different eye lid primer I like better. I would recommend to anyone with oily lids or just for long lasting wear. I will not repurchase at this time.
Sephora Instant Moisturizer- This has been my daily moisturizer for years. I like using this in the winter because it doesn't have SPF. I do use this in the summer under a foundation that has an SPF. This makes my skin feel very soft and non oily. I will repurchase when I make an order from Sephora.
L'Oreal Youth Code Texture Perfector Serum Concentrate- Amazing product! After one use my face felt so smooth and silky. I don't know how much this serum perfected my skin in the 1.5 months I used it. I really want to repurchase but haven't felt like shelling out $20 just yet. I would recommend to anyone who needs a good facial serum from the drugstore.
Korres Greek Yoghurt Advanced Nourishing Sleeping Facial Sample- I used this morning and night for a good month. I think it has a weird smell--very natural. I didn't think my skin felt greasy after applying. I wasn't wowed by this facial lotion so I won't be repurchasing.
Smashbox Photo Finish Lid Primer Sample- This sample comes with a doe foot applicator and I actually prefer squeeze tubes for my eye lid primers. I think the formula was nice and did keep my shadow on all day. I am currently using an eye primer by Lorac that I like more. I won't be repurchasing but if you are in the need for a eye lid primer this is worth a shot.
Urban Decay Naked Skin Beauty Balm with SPF 20 Sample- I don't know if this product comes in different shades or which shade I have. I don't like the minty smell or feel this product has. My face was extremely oily after wearing this product for a few hours. I felt like the coverage was almost nonexistent. I will not repurchase.
MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural in Medium- This is another holy grail product. I love setting my foundation with this finely milled foundation powder. If you like that matte perfected look then this is for you. I never get a cakey look. I will continue to repurchase and recommend. I am always on the look for a good drugstore powder but I never have any luck.
Maybelline Dream Lumi Touch Concealer in Radiant- I love the Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer better than this. I used this as a highlighter type concealer but I wasn't over impressed with the coverage or lasting power. This would cake under my eyes even when I set with a powder. I did like this product to clean up my eye brows. I won't repurchase at this time.
Batiste Dry Shampoo Hint of Colour in Dark & Deep Brown and Medium & Brunette- I used to think I couldn't go 2 days without washing my hair but this product saved my life! I have dark hair and always felt like dry shampoo left a white cast on my roots. This has a slight brown color that blends in easy and the smell is amazing. This is available in red and blonde shades as well as a regular white formula with different scents. If you are looking for a good dry shampoo then check this out. I get mine at TJ Maxx for $5.99 which is cheaper than Walgreens or Ulta.
Caress Evenly Gorgeous Burnt Brown Sugar & Karite Butter Exfoliating Body Wash- I think this has been in almost every one of my empties posts. I can't myself to switch body washes. This has that amazing deep sweet yummy scent and also is exfoliating. I would recommend Caress body washes to anyone- your skin doesn't feel overly dry or tight after using.
Bath & Body Works Coconut Lime Breeze Shower Gel- I believe I purchased this at the Semi Annual sale last year and I finally finished it. I don't love Bath & Body Works body products. I do like how the scent from the body wash lasts after the shower but I think they are drying. I would not repurchase. The smell was nice and tropical.
Old Spice Wolfthorn Anti-Antiperspirant & Deodorant- I have always worn deodorant for guys because the smells are so fresh and clean. I do not love the flowery sweet scents personally for deodorant. I love the scent and the formula. I switch brands each time I buy a new one so I will probably repurchase in a few months.
Head & Shoulders Dandruff Shampoo in Damage Rescue- Another holy grail product that continues to show up in empties post. I use a lot of dry shampoo and I feel like that can dry my scalp out. I love this scent-- smells like peaches. Very moisturizing and the scent lasts all day. Will continue to repurchase.
Head & Shoulders Dandruff Conditioner in Smooth & Silky- When I feel like my hair needs a pick me up I use this conditioner. Never fails to leave my hair super soft and smelling good for days. I will continue to repurchase.
Mystic Divine Argan & Monoi Oils Nourishing Masque- If you have a Sally's Beauty Supply near you I would recommend if you pick up this hair masque. This left my hair feeling amazingly soft and no tangles. I am always on the hunt for a good drugstore deep conditioner and I think ladies this is for me! I am going to go pick up another tub and the smell is amazing!
Bain de Terre Keratin Phyto-Protein Strengthening Conditioner- I used to purchase this from TJ Maxx all the time but recently I went and they were all sold out so I tried another product. If I see them again there I will repurchase. This conditioner is light weight and does amazing things for your hair.
Biore Warming Anti-Blackhead Cleanser-This is a warming cleanser that is exfoliating. I wasn't overly wowed by this product. I wish the warming sensation lasted longer and the beads were more abundant. I don't think I will repurchase at this time.
Clarisonic Refreshing Gel Cleanser Sample- This came with my Clarisonic brush that I got from Christmas in December. I actually loved this face wash. I didn't think it was overly drying nor was the scent over powering. I will consider repurchasing if I have a coupon.
St. Ives Blemish Control Apricot Scrub- I use this product for my face and my body. I love how exfoliating this is. I only use once a week on my face and on my body before I add self-tanner or shave. I will continue to repurchase.
Garnier Clean + Shine Control Cleansing Gel for Oily Skin- I picked this up because I as hearing all this buzz about Charcoal being good for oily skin. I actually liked the foaming action this cleanser provided but I felt like my skin was very dry after washing. I don't know if this controlled my oily but definitely kept the oil under control a little longer. I have a few other face washes I want to finish before repurchasing another.
Equate Beauty Night-Time Soothing Makeup Remover Towelettes- I love these for taking my makeup off before and after I wash my face. I love taking these camping or on vacation. I will continue to repurchase.
Ulta Exfoliating Round Cotton Pads- I liked that these had an exfoliating side but I don't need to have that to apply toner. I have purchase some plain cotton rounds from Wal-Mart. If I am at Ulta I might pick these up again.
Clinque Rinse-Off Foaming Cleanser Sample- I got this in a sample kit. I liked how these removed all my makeup but I did not love the squeaky clean feeling this left on my skin. I would not repurchase but if you like that overly clean feel this would be a cleanser for you.
Ms. Pedicure Exfoliating Foot Scrub with Pumice & Mint- I had a stock pile of this product and this is finally the last one. I love this stuff to exfoliating my feet and legs. This was super exfoliating and the mint smell was amazing but not over powering. If I see this around I will repurchase.
Bain de Terre Argon Oil Sleek & Smooth Shampoo- As I said earlier I love this conditioner it leaves my hair super soft and healthy. I find these at TJ Maxx but my most recent trip they were all sold out. If I see them again there I will purchase.
And we are done! Another successful empties post! I love doing these and reading them as I said. What are some of your product you continuously use up?
