SEPTEMBER EMPTIES


~  September Empties!  ~
---------

Previous -> August / July / June / May / April / March / February / January

Better late than never, welcome to my September Emtpties....even though it's half way through
October, what?! Gosh another month has completely escaped me! I seriously need to get me a time
machine or one that stands time still. My life is crayzay!

Randoms!

Nivea Pure Invisible 48hr Deodorant (Buy!) - Pretty awesome stuff. Sprays on dry and not powdery.
Great price over most others. Would def buy again!
Woolies Select Nail Polish Remover - Not fussed so long as it does the job and this does just that.
Great cheapie! Def buy again, however have tried the other variations in the green and I think it's
blue or yellow bottles? Can't tell the difference, they all feel/do the same to me.
Clever White Dissolving Whitening Strips - FINALLY finished the box! Yay! Goal reached! haha!
If you've been following my empties over the past few month then you'd know how I feel about 
these. I would highly recommend checking out PureSmile products instead. :) 

Hair!

Pantene Ice Shine Shampoo (Buy!) - Reviewed this ages ago and finally got around to finishing
the bottle! Woohoo! Onto the next! This was a pretty good one for Pantene I have to say. Make a 
nice difference to my overall hair's look. 
TRESemme' Split Remedy Conditioner (Buy!) - After finishing up the matching shampoo last month
I finally caught up and finished off the conditioner this month! This stuff is great if you have trouble
with split ends. I honestly had them really bad and now they are completely gone. I feel like using 
this as well as having regular trims really helped! (Review!)
Suigo Shampoo & Conditioner - Sadly I didn't get a whole lot of use out of these sample size
bottles which were sent to me for review. However I did like them and after two washes my 
hair felt pretty spectacular! (Buy!)

Cleansers!

Frangipani w/Jojoba Oil Body Wash - A random from a gift pack I was given for I think either
Christmas or my birthday? Was a pretty pink shade and bubbled up nicely smelling oh so yum!
Dove Pink Beauty Cream Bar Soap - Loved the change from white to pink with this soap I have
used a million times before. My 4yr old daughter also is a fan. :) 

Moisturisers!

Britney Spears Curious Body Souffle - An old favourite but time to say good bye. I am still
working my way through my massive batch of moisturisers being very strict with myself and
making sure I lather up top to toe every single day! I think I am beginning to see some space in
my bathroom. Miracle! (Buy!
Frangipani Moisturising Lotion - I am not sure of the brand of this but it was super duper nice!
Smelt exactly like a Frangipani tree (Bliss!) and was shimmery like fairy wings. Just my style! ;)

Samples!

Vagisil Intimate Wash 
Vagisil Wipe
The Body Shop x2
Revlon Photo Ready Prime + Anti Shine
ModelCo Double Sided Facial Wipes (Buy!)
Virtual Illusion Makeup Primer
Maskd The Green Mask

MAY EMPTIES



Another month of conciously trying to downside and de-clutter a bunch of my old beauty items.
I tend to try to use up samples and small bottles and tubes first to get them out of the way, try
something new that could potentially become a new fav and then move on beginning with oldest to
newest. 

As you can see from the picture below, I have pretty much used up all of my sample items and little
sachets so I am very excited to be moving onto some full size bottles and newbies!

A lot of these items used up this month have been laying around my bathroom for way too long and
didn't have much left in them so they were easy to quickly finish and have made precious space for
the new items I have aquired over the past 30 or so days. :)


Here is an overview...

HAIR CARE -
SunIn Super Hair Lightener (Full Size)
Fudge Dynamite Deep Conditioning Repair Treatment (Full Size)
Romy Eucalyptus & Lemongrass Shampoo (Sample)
Romy Eucalyptus & Lemongrass Conditioner (Sample)

TEETH/ORAL CARE -
Colgate Optic White Express White (Full Size)
Oral-B Pro Health Clean Mint (Full Size)

BODY LOTION/MOISTURISER -
Anna Sui Secret Wish Body Lotion (Full Size)
(oops accidently put the Anna Sui shower gel in this pic. Should be below with the body washes/cleansers! See below.)
Romy Eucalyptus & Lemongrass Body Lotion (Sample)

BODY WASHES/CLEANSERS -
Anna Sui Secret Wish Shower Gel (Full Size)
Nivea Men Clear Effect Volcanic Mud Foam Face Wash (Sample)
Romy Eucalyptus & Lemongrass Bath/Shower Gel (Sample)

HAIR REMOVAL -
Schick Intuition Pure Nourishment Replaceable Blade (Full Size) (Review!)

MAKE-UP -
Maeve Lustre Lip Balm in Coral (Full Size)

So to sum things up, my empties tally now stands at 67 full size and 102 samples for the year
so far! Woozas, do I love samples much? Yes, yes I do! :)

How did you go with your empties for the month of May?

OOTD


~ O u t f i t  O f  T h e  D a y ! ~


I love fashion, style and watching each trend evolve into the next.
So since I haven't written a fashion post in quite a while, 
here's an OOTD and as usual it's very budget friendly!

To get started, I'm just chilling out at home with the kids today,
so not much makeup. I just threw on a few coats of ModelCo
Fat Lash Volumising black mascara and coated my lips in 



These shots were taken in my backyard in front of the floral arch pretty
much in the exact same place where my husband and I got married.
It looks so beautiful now, covered in jasmine and the smell is just divine!
It only flowers like mad like this for about 2 weeks at the start of Spring
each year then the flowers all fall off. Such a shame the jasmine were just
tiny little plants when we got married 4 years ago, it would have looked
awesome in the wedding pix!

Anyway, on with the outfit! :)

Purchased from K-Mart
Black Singlet Top - Came in pack of 2 with a white one as well for ($5)
Black & White Polka Dot Skirt with Pockets - ($15)
White Encrusted Gem Sandals - I fit into kids size 5 ($15)

I love shopping for clothes at places like K-Mart because you can
buy all the latest trends without paying the ridiculous prices.
When the trend ends you don't have to worry about a shirt or a dress
you only wore a few times because you only spent about $20 on it, 
as opposed to purchasing something similar for triple the price.
Plus they sell tones of kids clothes cheaper than buying second hand
a lot of the time which is great since they grow so fast!


A close up of the shoes!

Where do you like to shop for the latest trends?
Do you ever shop the kids section for yourself?
