EMPTIES


~  FEBRUARY EMPTIES  ~

-
WATCH/LIKE/SUBSCRIBE!

I usually tend to think of months with some kind of theme. With December being all about 
Christmas and January the new year & my birthday. February all me thinking all about hearts, 
red roses, romantic dinners and of course LOVE! :) 

So let's see how many empties I managed to work my way through in this romantic month!


Let's make it easy and go from the largest packaging to the smallest...


Schick Intuition Pure Nourishment Razor w/ Coconut Milk & Almond Oil
I have said it before and I'll keep on saying it, this is the best razor out there in my opinion!
I have tried a gazillion different kinds and this is by far the most unique and kindest to my skin
which is prone to itching after shaving. I love that I can use this without having to dig around to 
find shaving gel too! (Review!)

TRESemme' Platinum Strength Deep Conditioning Treatment
Pretty nice stuff. Has taken my ages to finally get through it. But that can be a good thing! 
Would buy again once I am through with all the others I have to use first. :) (Review!)

Avon Naturals Milk & Honey Nourishing Body Lotion
You know how I love my body lotions and lather them all over my body on a daily basis. Well this 
one was in one of my most favourite scents - Milk & Honey! I LOVE it! The scent wasn't overly 
powerful though, which in this case I would have preferred. Some products need to tone down their
overpowering scents, but this kind of scent can never get too much for me. It is just so delicious!

I have mentioned this product previously in another article here where I talk about the benefits this
product can have if you suffer from super dry skin. My skin isn't prone to dryness, however this was
still nice to use. It came in my Blogstar prize pack a few years ago, so it needed to be finished up, so I
just used it anyway. Did a good job, I enjoyed it especially on my feet which do get the driest.

Coast To Coast Ultra Gentle Facial Polish w/ Wild Rosella & Oatmeal
I would classify this as quite a gentle exfoliant. Great for sensitive skin types. My skin is normal and
prone to breaking out every now and then and I was actually surprised at how well it kept the pesky
spots at bay. Lasted me ages and every now and then I would also use it to give my legs and feet a
gentle scrub. (Review!)

Dettol Soft On Skin Hand Wash in Vanilla & Coconut
Such an awesome household staple to have all over the house, especially with little ones running
around. I love these because this refill is used in an automatic battery operated dispenser which means
the no touch sensor senses when you hand is placed under it and squirts out just the right amount of
soap per wash, leaving little room for germs to spread! Also smells SO YUM!

Paleo Skincare Spearmint Tallow Bodywash
Received this sample in my recent Native Box which I have reviewed here. Make sure you check
that out for a mini demo so you can see how it works! :)
This brand is new to me and I did enjoy using this. The scent was nice and not too ott. It lathered up
pretty well and made me feel refreshed and smelling minty for the day! 

Avon Shine On Shimmering Lip Gloss is Frost
I am sure that I am not the only one trying to down size their lip gloss/balm stash?
How do so many accumulate so quickly? I must have about 50 and have no clue how I am going to 
get through them all in this life time, but hey I can try! Recently threw away a heap which felt so
relieving! Anyway - The gloss is so cute and shimmery, I really actually enjoyed it. Occasionally 
doubled up using a tiny bit as a bit of a cheek high lighter. 

Lancome Juicy Lip Gloss 
Unfortunately this gloss seemed to separate in the tube. :( Half of the product was a beautiful grape 
shade with a hint of shimmer throughout and the other was just clear, sticky goo. Was not impressed
considering this is probably one of the most expensive lip glosses I have ever invested in. I expect
more from such a higher ended brand. 

And we're done! How are you going with your empties so far for 2016?

TOP WINTER MOISTURISERS


My Top 3 

Winter

Skin Moisturisers


Avon
Foot Works Cracked Heel Relief Cream
This super thick cream I find best to use at night right before bed or after
a warm shower or bath when your skin is at its best to absorb the cream.
Put on some wooly socks and fluffy slippers. (This keeps the cream from rubbing straight off onto your floor.)
 By morning your skin will feel so much softer,
smooth and intensely moisturised. Be careful though as I've found my feet to be so
smooth they're actually quite slippery when walking on the floor even though the
cream has been completely absorbed. Over time when used regularly,
(I try to do this at least a few nights a week) you'll noticed less rough, dry and if you have any
cracked patches, these will be looking much better and eventually disappear
completely leaving you will baby soft skin.


Lanolips
Lovely Lanolin Golden Ointment
This super moisturiser has been made for extremely dry skin and can be used
on any part of your body. The formula is that of a super thick honey consistency 
without being sticky. Made from 100% naturally derived ingredients and is cruelty
free! Recommended to be an essential carry on item when flying. I have also
personally found it to be a life saver for shipped, dry and flaking lips.
Contains medical grade Lanolin, Manuka Honey, Vitamin E, Seed & Kernel
oils and Carnauba Wax! Totally love this, probably my favorite of the 3!


Bioderma
Atoderm PO Zinc Intense Soothing Care
I don't tend to find the need to reach for this product very often as this is
designed for extremely dry, irritated and broken skin which I rarely have.
However since it has become that little bit extra chilly of late, I've found my
skin crying out for moisture and I have seen that scaly texture rearing it's 
ugliness on parts of my skin, mainly my legs and arms, eek!
So I've cracked this baby out a few times and even used it on my 8 month old
as this is also completely safe to use on babies and children as well.
Double plus! :) This amazing cream strengthens the skin and helps it repair
itself whilst reducing redness and calming down itchy dry patches.
This cream does it all, I can't speak highly enough at how fantastic a job it does.

What do you use on your skin in Winter?

Love Candy!
