November Empties

Even though November is one of the most boring month of the year, it was a good month in terms of empties. I finished 22 products, yay!

Face Products

PRO Formula Clear Skin Cleansing Facial Wash: I bought this at Tesco in London for dirt cheap, and I wasn't expect that much. But it was a nice surprise! once you get past the "creamy" effect it leaves on your skin, you can actually see that this onw is good for oily skin. The do specify for all skin types, and since it is a creamy cleanser, I would assume it is good for sensitive skin.

Weleda Wild Rose Smoothing Night Cream: I have tried other products from the Wild Rose range before and I have never been disapointed. Even thought the cream is rich, it didn't break me out.

Hair Products

Delon Olive Oil Shampoo: When I first started using it, I was not overly impressed, but it was ok. Now that I finished the bottle (a whopping 725 ml), I struggle to find another shampoo that doesn't make my hair appear greasy after a day (I only wash them twice a week). So I would repurchase, if I see it at Dollarama.

Scents

Primark Cherry Candle: I will admit, I bought this candle purely for the mug. How cute is that? The actual candle was artificial smelling, but nice in its way.

Body Products

Dundee Original Emu Oil: Humm, I'm kinda feeling weird about this one, because I do not like the fact that it comes from an animal. My mum bought it and I had a few bruises on my arms that I wanted to heal, so I finished the bottle.

Personnelle Hydrocortisone Cream: I also used this for my bruises. I usually have a tube of this during winter, as I have a few dry and itchy spots on my wrists, and this calms them.

Have you finished any good products in November? Any favourite so far this month?

I haven't done an empty post last month for the reason that I was in London and it took me time to process everything that happened there and all the exhaustion I was suffering from the moving. But I did have some great empties, and I continued in my stride in November!



And here is October, minus a few things I used up in London (the pics are on my broken computer)

Bliss Body Blood Orange + White Pepper Body Butter: Really liked this one! I'm considering buying it when I run out of moisturiser! The combo blood orange and white pepper might seems weird, but I don't smell the pepper, and I like citrusy scent! The fact that a body butter is in a tube is weird for me, but it was a perfect combination between body butter and cream. It also does the job to moisturise my skin.

Natu Vive Papaya Smooth Hand Cream: I also loved this hand cream I bought a year ago in Sweden. It is not readily available in the UK or Canada, but when I go back to Sweden I'll look out for this one! it smells soooooo good!

L'Oréal Youth Code BB Cream in Light: I liked this BB Cream! I'm not against L'Oréal as much as I used to be. they do have good products, even though they really should include Quebec residents in all their competitions! This BB cream is no exception, even though I tried the shade Light, it worked on my medium skin (and we know BB cream tend to be lighter than most foundation!) I might purchase this after I run out of a few foundations.

Gold Bond Foot Cream: Uh, this is the old packaging! But Gold Bond is the best foot cream I have tried up until now. I will certainly repurchase this, especially now that their packaging is more stylish!

Eyeko Big Eyes Mascara: This used to be one of my favourite mascaras, even though it is kinda annoying to take off. If Eyeko wouldn't have rebranded (and take out most of all) their products, I would be repurchasing this. It used to be £5, and now it's £15! Eeeeeeek!!! They say the formula has been improved. Well, it might but I liked the old one, and I'm not ready to pay that much to test the new one! I would pay £15 only for a Lancome or Dior mascara, but not for this. Sorry Eyeko, I used to love you, but you're not targeting me as a customer right now!

Crest 3D White Vivid Toothpaste: I had a few samples of the whitening strips and the toothpaste. While I cannot really report anything on the strips as I only had 2 to try, I did see a notable difference while using the toothpaste. I have already bought a tube! I can see how my teeth are whiter when I brush them. Now, don't expect Hollywood white, but enough to take off any coffee or tea residue that may stain otherwise. It has tiny scrubbing beads in it, which helps to remove yellowness off teeth.

This is actually October's as well, as I haven't finished a lot these last months... Hopefully December will be different!


Joe Fresh Pomegranate Body Wash

I love the Joe Fresh range at Loblaws in Canada. i actualy miss it :( This shower gel smelled nice, just like its name says, like pomegranate. The only thing I wasn't keen on was the fact it was runny, hence I feel sometimes too much came out of the tube and I wasted it.

Repurchase: Yes, it does the job.

The CollectionParis Purifying Showel Gel Thalassa Olygo

Another shower gel. This one is from a luxury hotel in Brussels. Like many hotel products of this kind, it has this spa feeling and smell.

Repurchase: Yes, I would.

Murad Time Release Acne Cleanser

I like cleanser that has salicylic acid in it. I know it is good for clearing acne and spots. I am not quite sure about the "Time Release" effect, as I only have a sample.

Repurchase: Yes, i liked this cleanser (and my boyfriend too).

Lush Ocean Salt Facial Scrub

I like scrubs with big grains in it and this one delivers! The only thing I don't like is the smell. Well, I liked it at first, but it makes me think of Tequila shots, and I was sick on that once, so not good.

Repurchase: Yes, but in another smell, if they have one (can't find any on their website)

Outspoken by Fergie perfumed Body Spray

I am not a fan of body sprays... What are they anyway? Deodorant? Perfume? It's like a Jack-of-all-trades, master-of-none products. I bought this as part of an Outspoken set, along with the perfume and body lotion, which are ok.

Repurchase: No, don't like body sprays!

Pantene Pro-V Smooth and Sleek Sampoo and Conditioner

The smell in these is really good, and the shamppo lathers well and the conditioner "wraps" my hair perfectly. However, I don't feel they left my hair sleek. They are like normal shampoo and conditioner.

Repurchase: No, it doesn't do what it says!
