I will not make any
excuses about the lack of posts. Life happens, and sometimes it can also be
nice.
But without any
further rambling on this subject, here are my first empties. They are in no
particular order, but they are all completely and utterly just bits and pieces
of my trash I’d like to share with you.
First up, we have the
L’Occitane hydrating body gel. This stuff was a present from a friend two years
ago. Yes, two years ago. And with my current philosophy of using up products I
actually went for it and tried to use it up. Needless to say, products have
expiration dates for a reason. Although the scent and the softness of the
product was still there, it was flaking off my skin like you’ve never seen
before. So in the trash it goes (and I get to open another one, yay). Will I repurchase? Probably not, it wasn’t
that good compared to some other L’Occitane products I’ve used before,
especially all with the almond milk, which I adore.
Next up, we have 3
packages of make-up tissues – one by Essence, one by Müller’s own CV brand and
one by Garnier. I will not go into these too much since I have another post
planned about them.
We also have two nail
polish removers – I tend to go through these like crazy in the summer months
when I’m out and about and my nail polish is chipping like crazy. In the last
desperate attempt to be the “low-maintenance beauty” I bought the Aveo remover
(again, the Müller brand) in berry scent. I was not crazy about it, I think my all-time-favorite,
Afrodita chamomile (which is another empty) does a much better job. Will I repurchase? Afrodita yes, Aveo
probably not.
We also have two
oldies-goldies – the Avon Daily Shine leave in conditioner, which I already
talked about in my Avon haul. This stuff is magic and I will continue to use it
until the day they stop producing it. But it’s obviously one of Avon’s staple
products since it’s been on the market for years – the packaging has changed
some, but the product hasn’t. The other
favorite that I keep and keep repurchasing and always have some in stock just
in case is the Axe Anarchy for her. I had quite a hard time finding a deodorant
that can keep up with my pace and at the same time doesn’t cost an arm and a
leg.
Last up, I got through
my first tube of Maybelline Baby skin instant pore eraser. As some of you may
remember, I did not buy one, not two, not three but four of these babies on my USA trip. I will however not be starting a new tube right away since I have two
other primers that I want to try first. But that’s a case for another post.
Have you used any of
these products? What are your opinions on them?
Until next time, stay
beautiful, stay awesome!
