DECEMBER EMPTIES

~ December Empties ~

Previous Months - January / February / March / April / May / June / July / August / September / October / November

Today I share with you my very last empties post for the year 2015!
Late as usual, so my January empties will most likely be up after this one. Video has already been
filmed & is up on my channel if you want to take a sneak peak before I post it here. :)
The past year was hands down the most productive and successful in terms of using up old products
and clearing out some much needed space in my bathroom!

Feeling good about that as I have begun the new year with a bang, continuing to focus on my
de-cluttering and chipping away at it bit by bit not only in my bathroom but my whole house as
well. :)

FACE!

Real-U Cleanse Gentle Foaming Facial Wash
This brand seems to have been getting quite a bit of buzz over social media and with bloggers this
past year and with pretty good reason. My skin has always been acne prone. I am (finally) old enough
now to have my skincare routine down to a fine art and rarely ever break out anymore. However I
do still occasionally get the odd pimple yet when I used this daily over a period of a few months I
didn't get a single one!

Avon Clear Skin Blemish Clearing Foaming Cleanser
Another fantastic facial cleanser. As mentioned in many of my previous empties. This stuff is also
amazing for clearing acne fast!

HAIR!

Wella Pro Series Strong Hold Hairspray
I liked having a nice large bottle handy all the time. It lasted me ages and did a great job for
everyday hair styles.

Pantene Pro-V Colour Therapy Leave In Hair Moisturiser
This was a kinda old product which I was very happy to finally finish up before the end of the
year. Slowing getting through my hair moisturisers. I have no idea how I accumulated so many?

L’Oreal Paris Elnett Satin Hairspray
One of the best hair sprays I have ever tried. Holds my hair and curls/waves in place all day.
Doesn't have that overwhelming scent to it either which is super duper!

Garnier Ambre Solaire Self-Tanning Multi Position Spray
With it being Summer and with me being naturally very white, I have dug through my bathroom
cabinets and found a few tanning sprays and lotions etc. This one was probably one of the oldest in
my stash, so like always I used this one up first. It was pretty good, I liked that I could point it in any
direction or angle and it still sprayed the product out really easily which made it great to get in harder
to reach places like the backs of my legs. :)

Lanolips Lovely Lanolin Herbal Treatment Body Oil
Used this up by massaging it into my stretched out post baby belly. Liked this one and kept my skin
nice and hydrated and looking a bit less red.

Trefiel Lace Design Facial Mask
I posted an Instagram picture of myself wearing this a little while ago. It is a such a pretty mask.
Really hydrating and generously soaked in a clear serum. Super luxurious product.

Remove Spot Treatment

http://www.real-u.com.au

Real-U Remove Spot Treatment - RRP $28.00 (15ml)

Just like just about every single person on the planet (minus those genetically perfect skinned lucky

beings, are they even human?) I have suffered with the odd spot and pimple break outs for what feels

like my whole entire life! I clearly remember my very first zit rearing it's ugly unwelcome head smack

bang in the middle of my forehead when I was just eleven and as my teenage years dragged on for what

at the time felt like at least twenty years, the spots just kept on coming and only in the past five or so

years since I really started to study and become completely obsessed with beauty and skincare has my

skin started to calm down and I finally feel like I have it under control thanks massively to a few key

essential products I have found which work well for my skin including this one which I have recently

added into my current skincare routine.

Containing effecting acne fighting ingredients without the use of harsh ingredients including Benzoyl

Peroxide or Salicylic Acid which can dry out the skin. Hypoallergenic, this clear white product which

feel like the same consistency as a serum will zap your pesky zits overnight. I pop a dab or this first

thing in the morning before moisturising and applying makeup and right before bed under my night

cream to really tackle any lumps or bumps I have and want gone quickly. I have found this to also

slightly reduce my pore size when applied at night I can see a noticeable difference in the morning

which is a great way to start the day I must say! :)

How do you zap your zits?
Is your skin genetically flawless or do you need some of this Remove Spot Treatment?

REAL-U

~ REAL-U BEAUTY ~

http://real-u.com.au

Going through my teens, like most I suffered from acne. It all began at age 11 and since then has
been an on off relationship which I just can't seem to break away from. Even heading into my mid
thirties! I wouldn't have though I'd still be suffering from breakouts at this age, but yep, it still
happens, thankfully nowhere near as bad as when I was a teen, however still just as un-welcome and
annoying!

Recently I have been using Real-U products as my main source in my everyday routine. They are
Australian and not just for teens as my skin has been benefiting from their range too! :)
The three products I have been using twice daily are these ones below which I will talk about more,
but if you're interested in the details of each product you can check out my image below of the back
of each product. All of their products are hypo-allergenic, free from harsh ingredients such as ones I
have been guilty of using in the past including benzoyl peroxide ad salicylic acid.

CLEANSE - Gentle Foaming Wash!
The first product I want to chat to you about is Real-U's Gentle Foaming Wash. This is the first step
in my new routine which I start with each morning when I wake up. You can really feel the difference
when you use use this product especially afterwards when drying your face. The ph balanced formula
which also contains Aloe Vera keeps your skin at a healthy moisture balance, so it cleanses without
drying whilst still being effective at removing the excess oil, dirt and built up polluteons from the air
which has a tendency to stick deep into the pores making them look black, large and gross! Like with
most cleansers you just add a splash of water to get the cleanser foaming up ready to work onto your
face. Rinse well and pat dry.

CONTROL + Face Gel!
This next step is interesting to me because normally I would use a toner now before moisturising.
So to use a Face Gel (similar to a Serum) was quite cool for a change and might I add very effective!
This Gel is specifically formulated for non teenage skin (that's me!) which still breaks out or is just
persistently naughty! I have used a product like this in the past and I don't know why I ever stopped
because to me, I feel like this product was the most beneficial to my skin when it came to killing my
nasty monthly spots. I especially noticed a big difference first thing in the morning after applying this
at night after a few days. My skin had really calmed down considerably!

HYDRATE - Lite Moisturiser!
I am actually not opposed to a thick, heavy moisturiser especially for a night cream. However this
Lite Moisturiser is perfect is you skin is normally extra greasy or oily and the last thing you want to
do is add even more moisture to it making you feel like a shiny egg. This moisturiser feels so very
light on your skin and it soaked right in that I even considered applying it again on a few occasions to
make sure I was really getting enough! This product is awesome because after applying I can go
straight onto starting my makeup routine without having to wait for my skin to dry and at night I can
go right to bed without feeling like my moisturiser is going to transfer onto my pillow.

These products are available to purchase from the Real-U website and currently retail for the prices
listed below!

Gentle Foaming Wash 100ml $15
Face Gel 100ml $50
Lite Moisturiser 100ml $20

The Face Gel is also available in smaller 50ml or 10ml sample size tubes which are priced below.

Face Gel 50ml $30
Face Gel Sample 10ml $5

How cute are the little Control+ Face Gel samples? Adorable! If you want to try anything from the
range this is the one I recommend the most and for just the cost of postage ($5) you can't go wrong!

Real-U is a thoughtful brand who really just want the 'Real You!' as the name suggests to shine and
have the confidence to be yourself without having acne holding you back from living your fullest life.

This is a topic I think most people male and female can relate to at some point in their lives and it
definitely rings true to me. I highly recommend these products since using them over the past month.
I only wish I'd known about them sooner especially when I was in my awkward teen years and when
I was very shy and my acne was just killing my confidence and making it worse.
