September Empties

RAPID REVIEWS

Another successful month of empties. Lots of body products emptied all at the same time. Wonder what my next round of empties will be. I’ll only be showcasing the notable items.

Emptied 15 products with a total value of ~$403

  • Body Care Products::
    • Beekman 1802 – Milk Shake – $34
      • This body serum is a must in my lineup. Without this my body gets dry and itchy instantly after a shower. I like that this is more of a dry oil meaning it’ll leave the skin nourished but without the greasy leftover on the skin. I hope they’ll make a bigger bottle because I run through this so quickly.
    • Necessaire – The Body Creme – $48
      • This is a pricey baby but totally worth it. Kinda of wished I savored it a bit more. LOL. It was just too good and I hope they’ll come out with a bigger tub because if it’s for the body we kind of need a bit more.
    • Hero Cosmetics – Body Brave – Deep Scrub (discontinued) – $14.99
      • I had to stock up on their final inventory before it was all gone. My daughter and I love this scrub because it’s an affordable body product for acne skin and it smelt amazing. I haven’t found something comparable just yet.
  • Haircare Products::
    • Living Proof – Restore Repair Mask – $44
      • This mask was really nice at the beginning. It started to turn on fragrance to a plastic smell. I don’t recall using it past its open date though. After comparing it to another hair mask I had to use more product to get the same experience which I feel like that would be a waste. I may try again but to invest money into a mini would be my next step.
    • Bond Bar by Sally Beauty – No. 4 Bonding Shampoo – $9.99
      • This entire collection I cannot rave enough. Just run and try it for yourself!
  • Skincare Products::
    • Murad – Clarifying Cleanser – $36
      • This is my go to acne cleanser. It is on the stronger side but it’s so effective. They make it both for normal to dry skin and normal to oily skin both are amazing. I just happen to keep picking up the normal to oily skin due to my T-Zone area. It’s gives a cooling sensation but
    • Farmacy Beauty – Strawberry Shortcake Clean – $34
      • Any scent is worth trying but it’s still the original Green Clean formula. It’s a must try Cleansing Balm as a makeup remover.
    • Peach & Lily – Power Cocktail Lactic Acid Serum – $51
      • This is probably the only AHA serum that doesn’t cause me to break out or irritate my skin. It helps me smooth my skin out after one use. I only need to use it once a week and now I really miss it in my routine. Gotta go stock up as soon as possible is my recommendation.
    • Cocokind – Ceramide Barrier Repair Serum – $22
      • I’ve emptied this 2x now and I do enough the serum. It works so well with other products without any issues. You only need a couple drops for a full face experience. However, it doesn’t do well in my mini fridge. I feel like it starts to gel together making it harder to dispense. That’s just a minor negative – I’ll get over the mini fridge.
    • The Creme Shop – Peaceful Skin Patches – $15
      • These were nice to use. It helped on newer acne that potentially could cause me dark spots the older acne it didn’t do anything. It was just super affordable when I picked it up and worth a try if you can find it at Marshalls or TJ Maxx.
  • Other Products::
    • HUM Nutrition – Celery Juice Fiber Gummies – $20
      • I don’t eat these everyday at most 2-3x a week and it’s enough to regulate my body. It helps me go when I should go. It’s just good the gut to be honest. The taste is not the best but what greens really do. It’s just tolerable enough.
    • Touchland – Glow Mist – $16
      • Probably the best hand sanitizer (on the bougie side) totally worth picking up. I only use this now because it’s so easy to use and doesn’t cause a mess and doesn’t dry out my hands. Any of the fragrances are really good. The Glow Mist has an extra ingredient that others don’t have that help the skin to nourish even more.
    • KISS – Press-On Nails – $10
      • You can get these at many local stores. It’ll vary anywhere from $10-$14. I really love all the designs they come out with and it’s perfect for a couple nights rather than spending an arm and leg at the nail salon. I’ll be switching back to these entirely so I don’t ruin my nail bed.
    • Gucci – Gucci Guilty Rollerball Perfume – $38
      • This has been my go to perfume for many years. I honestly didn’t think I would empty it so quick but I don’t typically wear perfume. I will be refilling this soon. It’s a Warm Floral fragrance.
