~ JULY EMPTIES ~
months this year, but still going great guns none the less. Let me know if you'd be interested in
me blogging a stocktake of what's left in my mega stash of beauty prods. That could be fun, I know
it motivates and inspires me when I read/watch what other beauty lovers have and how they're
working through them.
I like to try and use up my older products first, however being a beauty blogger it's pretty
impossible not to stray and try newbies in-between. But that's just my general rule to keep things
rotating along and playing fair as well as limiting the amount of products going bad before I get the
chance to use them up.
Aaaaaanyway, let's take a look through my beauty trash!
Cleansing
Original Source Skin Quench All In One Moisturising Shower Gel
in Blackcurrant & Moringa Oil (FULL SIZE)
I received this product in my recent limited edition Bellabox and was loving it, until I knocked it over
in the shower and the bottle cracked and most of it spilt out everywhere! :( So sad! I did manage to
salvage quite a bit of it luckily, however I had to squeeze what I had left over into one of my travel
size bottles which made me just want to use it up quickly and move on to the next product. Was
lovely whilst it lasted. :)

Argan+ Argan Oil Super Creamy Body Wash (FULL SIZE)
I don't know if you can tell by looking closely at the base of this bottle, but I was super awesome and
somehow managed to also knock this bottle off my shower shelf and crack the lid! (Remind me to
change where I keep these!) Luckily I was pretty much done with it anyway, loved it by the way,
you should check out my full review here. ;)

I have been savouring this facial scrub because I have been loving it that much that I never wanted
it to end! The bursting beads of zesty freshness are so nice and refreshing when washing my face in
the mornings. I need more of this stato! (Review!)

Lush Snow Fairy Shower Gel (FULL SIZE)
Do you remember my Lush haul from a while back? Well this well known, well loved also limited
edition product had plenty of time to grow on me in between rotating through about a dozen or so
other body washes and scrubs. I actually grew to really love it and and hanging out for another bottle!
Paula's Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid (SAMPLE)
This was another Bellabox surprise and a good one at that! I have used Paula's Choice in my skincare
routine (which you can watch here!) so I knew I loved their products already and this was the
icing on the cake for my skin to really add that extra little bit of help that it needed in keeping it clear
and bringing out the best in it.

Moisturising
Sukin Facial Moisturiser (FULL SIZE)
I am a huge fan of all Sukin products I have ever tried. They really are lovely and so natural and
smell wonderful. I really enjoyed this daily moisturiser. It felt so nice on my skin with it's light scent.
I highly recommend it and if you are interested to hear more about my experience with this and other
products from this brand then you can watch my full video review here. :)

Fantasy By Britney Spears Body Souffle (FULL SIZE)
This is actually a really pretty moisturiser. It smells simply gorgeous and it glides on my skin like a
dream. Honestly, I'm a little sad to let it go...but hey there is always fifty other Britney variations out
there to pick up next!
Avon Far Away Shimmer Gel (FULL SIZE)
This is seriously the most beautiful shimmer gel, like EVER! It has a jelly like consistency and leaves
the most beautiful shimmery shine all over your body making me feel like a real life fairy. :)
It is also lightly scented like the matching perfume. I looooooved it!
L'Oreal Paris Revitalift Filler (SAMPLE)
This was a nice little surprise which I found in my recent Elle magazine which I used right away.
Only a very small amount in the sachet so a little hard to get my head around what I think of it.
Would need to try it more to form an opinion.

Vaseline Intensive Care Deep Restore (SAMPLE)
This was nice too. I usually like to really lather up on my moisturiser from head to toe so this
wasn't enough to go very far. I'd be interested to try it full size as I know the brand and have used
their products before which were good.

Hair
Schwarzkopf Professional BC Oil Miracle x2 (SAMPLES)
I cannot remember where these came from, but omg they are awesome! These are up there with
the best I have ever used in terms of hair oils. Made my hair INSTANTLY frizz free, smooth and
soft. Just amazing and only needed to used a tiny amount on my long thick hair. Lasted ages, which
for a sample is a total bargain!
Aveda Damage Remedy Reconstructive Treatment (SAMPLE)
I have used many of these little sample tubes and really enjoy them. A lovely hair treat which I would
be happy to use again and again.

VO5 Hot Oil Shower Works (FULL SIZE)
An oldie but a goodie. I feel like it worked better on my hair when I was dying it darker, however
still does an alright job.

Body
Revlon Pink Happiness Perfume (FULL SIZE)
This is an old favourite which I still love. This is a smaller travel/purse size version of the perfume.
It has served me well but I am ready to move on to some of my other perfumes in rotation which need
some love and attention.

Mitchum Clinical 48hr Powder Fresh Deodorant (FULL SIZE)
This is one of my favourites in terms of keeping body odour in check which actually works!
This stuff is gold and worth paying a little extra for. No matter how sweaty you get, you will not
have people holding their breath as they walk past you. Trust me, it's amazing! (Review!)
Organyc Liners (FULL BOX)
I was fortunate to have these sent to me to try and review so I have been very good to the
environment lately thanks to Organyc. Since they do just as good a job as any other liner I have
tried I don't see why I shouldn't continue to use these. Great quality and comfortable too.

Make-Up
L'Oreal Paris Infallible 24h Matte Foundation (SAMPLE)
With all of the hype surrounding this foundation I couldn't wait to try this one and it didn't disappoint.
I am dying to purchase this and use it again, however I have sooo many back up foundations in my
collection which are sure to last me into the next century!
Ten-O-Six Tinted Moisturiser (FULL SIZE)
I usually just slap on a tinted moisturiser if I know I am probably going to be spending the day at
home. It's quick and easy and still has me looking half decent if I do happen to quickly pop out
somewhere so if I have to answer the door or have someone visit unexpectedly.
SugarBaby Lip Gloss (FULL SIZE)
Found this old friend in my gloss draw recently and couldn't reach into the bottom to get anymore
product out, so into the beauty trash bin it goes!
