This month has went by so fast and here we are with another
empties post. I have so much to share
with you guys this month. I hope
everyone enjoyed Halloween and had a safe one. Stay tune to a post with photos
and suggestions when it comes to painting your face for Halloween since there
has been a lot of discussions about what is safe and what is not safe to put on
your face. Please leave a comment down
below letting me know the products you used up this month.
NON-MAKEUP ITEMS
1.
Palmolive Dish Liquid- I use this to wash my
dishes but also to help clean my beauty sponge’s with when I have stubborn
stains that do not want to get off but also it helps take off foundation that
is not oil free .
2.
Angel of Mine Baby Shampoo- I purchased it at
the Dollar Tree and really any baby shampoo works to clean my brushes. I have
not found a cheaper way to wash my brushes when I am in a pinch because I tend
to use solid brush cleansers but I always order them online so I will use baby
shampoo in between receiving new ones.
3.
Lavoris Mouthwash in the Flavor Natural Mint-
This is a great inexpensive mouthwash and I will repurchase. It can be found in
Walgreen but if you want to save a few bucks you can also pick it up at your
local Dollar Tree like I do.
4.
Colgate Baking Soda & Peroxide Whitening
Toothpaste in Brisk Mint Flavor- I like the taste it left my mouth after I
rinsed but I’m not to sure how much whitening it did because I did not notice
to much of that happening. I will
repurchase Colgate toothpaste just not to sure on that specific one.
5.
Bath & Body Works Wallflower in the scent
Caribbean Escape- The notes on the scent are “A tropical blend of melon and
raspberry nectar infused with coconut milk” This scent reminded me of my trip
to Florida this past month but also of the summer time .
6.
Modesa Cotton Swabs- They worked and got the job
done and were inexpensive.
7.
The Body Shop Satsuma Hand Cleanse Gel- This was
a great hand sanitizer. It smelled like oranges and I love oranges . It did not
smell like alcohol at all which I appreciate that.
8.
Target candle in the scent Strawberries &
Whipped Cream – It was an okay candle. I received it as a gift. I did like the
scent but it was a very light scent and did not have much throw to it. There
were times were I hardly smelled the candle at all but it was burning.
9.
Bath & Body Works Mini Candle in the scent
Georgia Peach- I loved this scent for the summer time. It smells like straight
up peaches. This little candle could full up the whole room and then some like
the throw on it was great but being so small I was surprised.
1.
Clinique Clarifying Lotion Clarifiante Number 3
for Combination Oily skin- This was a great toner. It did not have such a
strong smell and was able to get any makeup left over from my cleansing off but
also it did not burn my face.
1.
Lush Bath Bomb in Ickle Baby Bot- This was a very nice
and relaxing bath bomb. It gave this spa feel to my bath but also helped when I
was feeling sore. When using this bath bomb I feel ready for sleep after. I
tend to use a few of these during the fall and winter season. This month I used
2 full bath bombs. I tend to break them up and get at least three uses out of
one bath bomb.
1.
ELF Soothing Serum- I did not see much of a
difference when using this product on my skin. To me it just turned into a
moisturizer in the day time. It reminds me a little bit of my gel formula
moisturizer from Clinique. This product is marketed as a soothing serum it did
not feel like a serum to me.
1.
L.A. Colors Dramati Lash in Dolly 973- I brought
these for my Halloween look that will be going up after this post. I was not a fan of these at all. I felt like
the band was very thin and since I am a beginner it was very hard to work with.
1.
L’Oreal Cushion Foundation in the Shade W3 Nude
Beige- I received this sample in my Target beauty box and decided to use it. I
really did not find much of a difference between this foundation and the normal
True Match which is way cheaper. If I receive this product again in a
subscription box I will use it again but I do not see myself picking up this
product unless I get it on sale because I refuse to pay full price for the
amount of product that comes in the full size.
1.
ELF Brow Pencil in the shade 21721 Taupe- This
is one of my favorite brow pencils from the drugstore. It is very affordable
and gets the job done. I have one on hand at all times.
1.
Stila Lip Glaze in the shade D2 Pink Orchid-
This was a sticky lip gloss but I did not mind it. I loved the shade it left on
my lips since it was a light pink with shimmer . It was one of those easy
products that even without putting a whole face on I could wear and look some
what put together.
1.
Josie Maran Bear Naked Wipes – I wasn’t a big
fan of these makeup remover wipes. I liked they way they felt on my face but
they did not take all my makeup off. I found that I was using these and then I
would have to use a makeup remover in liquid form. I’m not sure if my pack was
a little bit dried out. I also realized that they work best with the Josie
Maran cleansing oil but on their own they were not getting off my makeup.
1.
Nuance Salma Hayek Glow Facial Oil- I received a
sample of this oil that I ended up using on my weekend getaway this month. I
enjoyed the product and I also realized that my face was not left greasy after
using this product since some oils can leave the skin feeling greasy but that
was not the case here. It is also a oil that is easy to find since it is sold
at CVS.
1.
ELF Foundation Serum in the shade Light/Medium-
This was a great light weight foundation for the summer time. I liked the fact
that it had spf of 25 but also did not break out my skin. It was very easy to
use and I didn’t even have to set it with powder if I didn’t want to.
2.
Maybelline Fit Me ! Concealer in the shade 10
Light- This is one of my holy grail concealers. It is creamy and easy to blend
out and this shade is great for brightening up under the eye and highlighting
all over the face.
2.
NYX Auto Eyebrow Pencil in the shade EP03 Medium
Brown- This product ended up drying out on me before I could use it all up. I
never found this product easy to work with and the shade I had was more of a
red tone brown which did not match me well. I would have to use this product
conjunction with a powder to have my brows match my hair color.
2.
Essence Make me brow in the shade 02 browny
brows- This product reminds me a lot of benefits give me brow . I feel like
this product is the dupe but since I have not used that product since they
repackaged and reformulated it. I recent picked up the new formulated one and
will give it a go. I will leave you guys posted on if I feel like it is a dupe
or not in a dupe post that is coming soon. I have to repurchase this product
because it was easy to use and I didn’t even have to shade in my brows if I
didn’t want to because it gave use enough coverage on its own .
