Empties #1

I have been saving the empty bottles and packaging over the past couple of months of the products I have used up and wanted to write a blog post where I did a brief description on what I thought of each product and whether or not I would repurchase them.


Makeup

Benefit POREfessional Primer 7.5ml

I have the full size but I always through a mini in my travel bag and do my makeup with it. I love it.

Would I repurchase: Already have but full size

Bourjois Brow Reveal Automatic Brow Pencil (001 Blond)

I only ever use pencils to do my brows with, I am not very good with anything else so this was good but I like others more.

Would I repurchase: Probably not.

Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation (51 Light Vanilla)

I do like this foundation, it's not my favourite but it's good. If you want to try it I would purchase it quickly because they are going to stop stocking England soon.

Would I repurchase: Already have

IT Cosmetics Travel Mini Your Skin But Better CC Cream SPF 50+ (Fair)

You may have seen I did a blog post about this product, I had this shade and also Tan for when I fake tan well I love this product so much I got a middle shade (Medium) for when I am midway through a tan. I think this is the best foundation I have ever tried.

Would I repurchase: Yes

MAC Prep+Prime Fix+ 30ml

I love using this, it refreshes my face when it's feeling tight and a bit boring.

Would I repurchase: Already have

MUA Brow Define Eyebrow Pencil With Blending Pencil (Fair)

LOVE! I have repurchased and use it daily.

Would I repurchase: Already have


Nails

CND Creative Play Base Coat

I do not know where I got this from but I need to repurchase it FULL STOP.

Would I repurchase: Yes

Cutex Ultra-Powerful Nail Polish Remover 100ml

This is my travel nail polish remover, I love this and have used it for year (other bottles but same one) and can't find anything better.

Would I repurchase: Already have but in a larger size


Skincare

Alex Steinherr X Primark Plump & Glow Facial In A Stick

I did a blog post about this product and gave it a 4/5 but I wouldn't repurchase it because Alex Steinherr X Primark have some better products that I love.

Would I repurchase: No

Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water 125ml

I am going to be honest, I use this on a cotton pad and spot clean my makeup brushes, I very rarely use it on my face and when I do its okay.

Would I repurchase: Already have

L'Oréal Fine Flowers Gel-Cream Wash

I tried this a year or two ago so when I went to the shop and saw it still there I thought I would try it again, I remember the texture feeling like PVA glue but not sticky, it works well but burns if you get it in your eyes.

Would I repurchase: Maybe

Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish™ Hot Cloth Cleanser 50ml

I am going to be honest now, I don't know how many times I have repurchased this cleanser in the various sizes, this is my travel one, came to Stockholm with me as well as Leeds. I can't get enough of this product. My skin always feels clean, looks clean and is just amazing when I use this. This doesn't hurt if you get it in your eyes although I do not advise you put it in there.

Would I repurchase: Yes! Yes! YES!

Liz Earle Skin Repair™ Moisturiser Dry/Sensitive 15ml

Another mini that I have had in full size and love, it has been a saviour in this cold weather.

Would I repurchase: Yes

Sanctuary Spa Foaming Micellar Cleansing Water 50ml

Another product I use to spot clean my makeup brushes but I also use this to wipe my makeup off before I do a deep cleanse.

Would I repurchase: Yes


Bodycare

Bio Oil Dry Skin Gel 200ml

Somebody was raving about this product so I purchased it and like it, I have got another pot of it to use up, I do want to try the original Bio Oil on a few scars I have.

Would I repurchase: Yes

Grounded Coffee Body Scrub (Peppermint)

It was a good body scrub but I have some others I prefer more.

Would I repurchase: maybe

Impulse Instant Crush Body Fragrance

I used to use these when I was a young teen so when I got a bit of a temperature but still worked I needed a body spray that would be cooling on the skin and remember these.

Would I repurchase: Maybe

Impulse Tropic Beach & Espresso Body Fragrance

I have one of these in my handbag, one on my vanity and one in my office draw at work, it smells delicious. Somebody farted at work and I sprayed this to hide that vile smell and everybody loved it.

Would I repurchase: Hell yes!

Lush Cookie Dough Body Scrub

I hate when Lush bring out a seasonal range and I love it so much and forget to repurchase, this scrub was so moisturising and if you are lazy like me and forget to moisturise after your bath or shower then it doesn't matter because this has worked its magic.

Would I repurchase: Yes but at Christmas when it's back

Nivea Black & White Anti-Perspirant x3

I have used this deodorant for years and will repurchase however I am trying some new ones out. I remember really struggling as a young teen to find a roll on that won't stain my white school shirt yellow but also works as an anti-perspirant.

Would I repurchase: Yes


Haircare

Garnier Ultimate Blends The Strength Restorer Balm Hair Mask

Love, love, love.

Would I repurchase: YES
