AUGUST EMPTIES


~  AUGUST EMPTIES  ~


Uh, excuse me August? Where did you just go?! This past month has seriously flown by in what feels
like a day! As you can see if you look to the side at how many posts I put up in August, I missed my
usual target of 10 and only managed 6. However I have been concentrating a lot more on my Youtube
channel and trying to put more videos up over there. But other than that, it has just been a super busy
month in my life away from blogging in general. Who knew bloggers actually have a life outside of
blogging right? lol You'd be surprised! Anyway, let's get into my favourite blog post of the month -
EMPTIEEEES! :)

Full Size

Tresemme Split Remedy Shampoo
I have purchase and used this multiple times and always enjoy it. I used to have quite bad split ends
and now I don't. I thank it partially to this hair range. (Review!) (Buy!)

Dove Go Fresh Face Cleanser
This is classic to Dove at being super moisturising and gentle on the skin. It smells like cucumber
and I just love it for when my skin if feeling extra dry. (Review!) (Buy!)

Lush So White Shower Gel
I purchased this the same time I bought Snow Fairy and this one would have to be my favourite of
the two. Smells gorgeous and I can't get enough of the beautiful glittering snow like shimmer in it!
(Lush Haul!)

SugarBaby Bomb Shell Satin Body Souffle
Had this stuff in the back of my beauty cupboard for forever and finally dug it out to use it up.
It is suuuuuuper shimmery, but it so very pretty and smells great!

Avon Naturals Frangipani Hand Gel
I just don't get this hand gel. It smelt nothing like frangipani, the scent was quite potent actually
and the consistency was a clear runny gel like a hand sanitiser. Weird.

Designer Brands 'Delicate' Lashes
Loved these! Got a few used out of them by taking the time to carefully clean and store them back
in the box after each use. A tedious task that I got over and decided to chuck them and more on to
another set!

Clever White Dissolving Whitening Strips
As mentioned in a few of my previous empties, I had high hopes for these, but just can't get into
them. They feel gluggy as they dissolve in your mouth and I haven't really noticed a difference in my
teeth shade. :(

Samples

Estee Lauder NightWear Plus Night Detox Creme (Buy!)
Whoo Ja Saeng Essence
Sulwhasoo Gentle Cleansing Foam
Sum Secret Programming Essence
L'Oreal Elvive Extraordinary Oil Nourishing Masque (Buy!)
Garnier Fructis Full & Luscious Shampoo & Conditioner (Buy!)

L'Oreal Paris Revitalift  Day Cream (Buy!)
Did anyone else take this 14 day challenge? I really enjoyed this day cream. It did feel a little heavy
and smelt like sunscreen. However that didn't bother me and I'm pretty sure I can see the results as
my crows feet around my eyes are less prominent. Woo!

So as I warned you all in my last few empties, my stash is getting smaller and smaller as I use
up more half empty products and move onto the full ones, this past month is quite small in
comparison. Since I feel like I barely saw a day in August, I don't know how I even managed to get
through this amount of products to be honest. Just went by so fast!

Happy Spring by the way!
My baby son turns 2 this month so I am excited and looking forward to celebrating that!

JUNE EMPTIES


~   JUNE EMPTIES   ~

It's that time of the month again! Empties time! That satisfying feeling when you get to throw away
your month's worth of beauty trash and start again for the following month, hopefully popping open
some newbies and finishing off some more not so newies along the way!

This past months stash of empties is definitely significantly smaller than my last few.
I am pretty sure I have finished off just about all of my 'almost empty' products and am now working
through those larger full size bottles which are going to take me some time to get through.
All good fun though! :)

I still feel like I worked through quite a bit this month so let sort through the mess!

Dental/Body Care
Colgate Optic White Express White Toothpaste (Full Size)
I am pretty sure I also used up one of these last month. We somehow managed to have two open at
the same time and this is the second tube used up. Hubby and I share our toothpaste and I guess
together we get through a lot of it! :D
Clever White Dissolving Whitening Strips x2 (Full Size)
I somehow only manage to get through one set of these per month. I just honestly can't get into them.
I really want whiter teeth, but these just feel icky. I don't like them. They say you can just put them
on and go about your day, but I find it works better for me to put them on and then shower so
as they start to get gluggy in my mouth I can just brush my teeth and spit the rest out. I
don't know how they expect you to just go about your day and swallow as they dissolve. Ew!
Schick Intuition Disposible Razor Refil Blade (Full Size) (Review!)
Have been using this razor blade for ages now and still love it. This is my most favourite razor
and highly recommend trying it! The moisture block is genious! 

Facial Cleansing & Care
Avon Clear Skin Blemish Clearing Foaming Cleanser (Full Size)
I have lost count of how many bottles of this I have used and I still have a few back ups!
It works so well though. I never have a single zit if I use this twice a day. Highly recommended if
you suffer from acne. It's really cheap too, only a few bucks. My mum keeps sending it to me at xmas...
Lab Series Multi-Action Face Wash (Sample)
A random sample I found amongst my husbands stash of products he will never use, so I took it
upon myself to get rid of it and make some space. From memory as I finished this up really early in
the month, I think it was actually a scrub and worked quite well. I love scrubs and this one had that
potent man smell to it. Definitely a man product!
Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula Multi-Effect Perfecting Facial Oil (Sample)
This product reminds me a bit of Bio Oil. It does pretty much the same thing. I used it on my face as
well as my stomach where I will give anything a go to aid in my stretch marks in that area. It was
really nice actually and I will be looking into purchasing the full size version.

Hair Care
Goldwell Kerasilk Ultra Rich Shampoo (Sample)
Goldwell Kerasilk Ultra Rich Conditioner (Sample)
I somehow ended up with another set of these bottles as I have previously used sample sizes of these
shampoo & conditioner before. They are quite nice. Nothing stood out about them though.
Al'chemy' Lavender & Anthyliss Leave In Conditioner (Sample)
Beautiful product and brand. Use sparingly because that is all your hair will need. It is highly
moisturising and if you use too much your hair will feel greasy and dirty. This sample lasted me a
good 4 washes!
Aveda Damage Remedy Intensive Restructuring Treatment (Sample)
This came in my recent limited edition Bellabox. (Blog post here or you can watch my unboxing
video here.) This is not the first time I have recieved this sample and it is quite nice. A much
needed treat for my slightly stressed out hair.

Body/Facial Moisturisers
Elizabeth Arden Pretty Body Lotion (Full Size)
Smells divine! I have the matching perfume as well which is equally lovely.
Paris Hilton CanCan Body Lotion (Full Size)
Smells really nice. I probably wouldn't purchase again just because there are so many other options
out there and I don't think I will live long enough to try them all.
SugarBaby Frangipani Deluxe Hand Creme (Full Size)
This was one of my most favourite hand cremes. The packaging first of all is so bright and happy!
It also smells delicious and it's just a really cute product and made my hands feel nice. :)
Kosmea Certified Organic Rose Hip Oil (Sample)
Recently sent this by Beautyheaven in a sample pack I won. (Full review of what I got here.)
And I adore this Rose Hip Oil. It is probably the best one I have tried in terms of quick results.
Highly recommend trying if you have stretch marks or scaring.
Dr.LeWinns Day Cream Moisturiser (Sample)
This was also in my Beautyheaven sample pack. Have tried this previously and really enjoyed it.
A nice thick cream, but not too thick and isn't at all greasy. It's like non greasy butter. Feels like
heaven on the skin.

Make-Up
L'Oreal Paris True Match Foundation in Golden Beige (Sample)
Loved this! On my list to purchase once I finished up my 5,000 other bottles of foundation.... or sooner. ;)
I actually really love this primer now. If you watch my review (linked above) you will see me talking
about how I didn't like it. That was me after only using it a short time. Now that I have been using
this for years, I have grown to really love it! Worked brilliantly!

 Overview!
Monthly Tally = x6 Full Size & x12 Samples
Yearly Tally = x73 Full Size & x114 Samples

The Mess = Buh-Bye! :)
Can't wait to try lots of new stuff in July!

APRIL EMPTIES


~  APRIL EMPTIES!  ~


Another month done and dusted and another bin load jamed packed full of products I've
managed to scrape and queeze every last inch out of and I have to say these last few months of

Colours Of The Rainbow TAG!



Some of my favourite products from the colours of the rainbow! :)
Let me know if you do or have done this tag too! 


Red
Maybelline NY Mini Colorama Nail Polish
#150 Fruit Juice 
Super vibrant shade and dries fast!

Pink
MAC Lipstick in Girl About Town
Any lover of pink will love this! My go to lippy and smells like vanilla!

Orange
L'Oréal Paris Infaillabel Lipstick in Orange Parfait
Love this for when I want something different. Very vibrant and pigmented. Lasts 24 hours. Highly recommend!

Yellow
Benefit Sunbeam Bronzing Highlighter
So, so pretty! Can be subtle or built up as much as you desire. 

Violet
I struggled to find anything violet so I picked this as it's kinda close in colour....sort of!
Sugarbaby Fairy Gloss Lip Glaze 
Sticky, but so beautiful! I am in love with this girlie, pink, slightly shimmery gloss! Gives the perfect girlie pout!

Blue
BYS Glitter 
This glitter came with a liquid adhesive to wear on your eyes. I mainly just use it on my nails over any blue shade for a more pigmented and vibrant look. Finished with a clear top coat to seal the glitter and prevent fallout. I feel like a mermaid when I wear it, the photo doesn't do it justice and it's only a few bucks to buy!

Green
ChiChi Eyeliner in Disco Graffiti 
Looks absolutely stunning on any which way you apply it. Has shimmer in it and doesn't fade.

Indigo
OPI Nail Polish in Russian Navy
Perfect statement bold navy shade. Goes best with jeans or when wearing white.

Rainbow
Sugarbaby Frangipani Deluxe Hand Creme 
This is very affordable and the smell, I simply can't get enough of!
I love to apply this right before bed for soft, sweet, floral scented hands by morning.
