It's been eternity since I did an empties post and the crap is really piling up! Enough is enough. I have so much I need to break it into at least 3 parts. Let's get to it.
Nivea Pure & Natural Body Milk - This is a staple in my empties posts. For quick hand cream or anywhere really Lotion, this is the best at the drug store as far as I am concerned in terms of quantity you get, decent quality and price point. Already repurchased like 3....
Aveeno Skin Relief Moisturizing Lotion in Cooling Menthol - This is the best lotion from the Aveeno line in my opinion. I've even seen it heal burn marks super fast! The one in the tube is thicker and a bit better. Already repurchased.
Nivea MicellAir Micellar Water - So disappointing! Not good at all. Doesn't take off makeup well. Raccoon eyes the next morning even when you think you got it all. Only bought this because when the pandemic hit I couldn't easily get my Klorane makeup remover easily anymore. Will never repurchase!
EOS lip balm - No idea what scent this is. It's almost finished but I had a reaction to it like so many other people. I keep finding them around the house. They must go!
Laneige Lip Glowy Balm in Gummy Bear - this is what I have been using in place of my beloved Bite Beauty Agave Lip Mask. I know Bite Beauty was sold and they changed all of the formulas. The reviews have been dreadful. Not sure I will ever try the new formulation. The Laneige product is not as good as the old Bite Beauty Agave Lip Mask but I like it enough. I've had 5 different flavors/scents so far and I liked the Gummy Bear the least. Doesn't smell or taste like gummy bears at all! More like a fake grape smell.
Origins Plantscription Serum x2 - I've used up two mini tubes. One of these actually lasts awhile. I've bought the big bottle which I am currently using. Used this for years. When I stop using it for awhile I feel like my laugh lines around my mouth look more pronounced. So I'm back at it using it full time.
Dr. Hauschka Rose Day Cream - I used this for years and swore by it. I got bored, tried other things. I'm back to using it here and there as it seems to calm my rosacea a bit and its supposed to be good for that issue.
IGK Hot Girls Hydrating Shampoo - This was a solid (by that I mean decent) shampoo. Smelt great and hydrating. Gives one hell of a lucious lather. I would consider repurchasing but at the moment I love my Bumble and bumble Hairdresser's Invisible Oil shampoo too much to use anything else.
Bumble and bumble Hairdresser's Invisible Oil Conditioner - Speaking of Bumble and bumble, another tube of their conditioner bites the dust. This is the perfect conditioner for my hair and I simply have not found anything better for me anyway.
Drunk Elephant Beste No. 9 Jelly Cleanser - Ever since my rosacea got wild, this is one of the only cleaners that doesn't make it angry. I'd love to give my skin a good scrub but can't so for now I use this and try to be content. Very mild, perfect for sensitive or angry skin.
Living Proof Perfect Hair Day 5-in-1 Styling Treatment - Another bottle done. Already repurchased two more. Nothing else compares to this in terms of prep for hot tools and styling. Hair shape lasts for days and you get really great volume. One of my holy grails.
blendercleanser solid - I love this smell of this and it really gets the job on my brushes done. The Sephora version is comparable (doesn't smell as nice) when it was at a lower price point but now it's about the same so that's no good Sephora! I like the blendercleanser just a bit more, however, I hear Sephora has reformulated their version so we will wait and see.
Drunk Elephant Protini Polypeptide Cream - Hands down one of my favourite moisturizers. Especially when mixed with DE's Virgin Marula Luxury Face Oil. Already repurchased x2.
Drunk ElephantVirgin Marula Luxury Face Oil - I can't seem to find a face oil as good as this one and I have tried a lot the last couple of years, a sample here, a sample there. This was a travel size. You will see in my Empties Part 2 post that I have also gone through a full sized one and I have repurchased it already...
That's it for now. Part 2 coming soon!
