Empties #5 - February 2013

I haven’t used too much up this month, but I am getting there. I actually have a few reviews planned which will hopefully be posted in March, which means I can start using up more make-up related products instead of just bath and body stuff. Soap & Glory Peaches & Clean Deep Cleansing Milk – 200ml I am still using this as my night cleanser and I still love it. There is no need for me to re-purchase one because I received one in a gift set at Christmas! Although I have noticed that if I don’t use it one night, my skin is terrible the next day and I think it happens because my skin is so used to the product now, but I don’t know whether that is a good thing or a bad thing. I am still going to carry on using though and try to use it every day instead of being lazy! £7 – click here! Morrisons Large Oval Cotton Wool Pads (100% Cotton) – 50 Pads This was my third and last packet of these. I will probably just re-purchase any type when I go shopping. I will not be sh

Haul: My Last Day! :(

Today I completed my six weeks of work experience. I was volunteering at a business centre on reception and I really enjoyed it. Before I started I was initially unsure because I had not done that type of work before and I am quite shy around people I have not met before and I suffered quite badly from social anxiety, but everyone was very nice and welcoming. Anyway, I received some lovely gifts from the reception staff, a thank you card and a glowing reference. I also got a strawberry frosted cupcake which was very tasty, but I forgot to take a picture of it before I ate it! Let’s get into what I received. The gifts are very girly of course, firstly is the Possibility Pamper Salon Gift Set , which is the high street version of Philosophy. The set includes a pink body exfoliator; shower gel, body lotion and body mist. These are scented with Raspberry Pavlova, which smells amazing. Next I got a Baylis & Harding Gift Set in the Sweet Mandarin & Grapefruit scent . The

Empties #4 - January 2013

Welcome to my first Empties post of the year! I’ve not really used much up because I have been trying to review things before using them up, but so far I’ve been slow on both tasks. Hopefully there will be new and more things next month! e.l.f Tone Correcting Concealer – 2.4g I had this concealer in two shades, Ivory and Rosy Beige. It wasn’t a bad concealer, I actually mixed both the shades, but they didn’t do enough for me coverage wise and lasting power. But for the price this concealer is great! £1.50 – click here! Soap & Glory FOAM Call Body Wash – 500ml I bought this last year from my local Boots because I wanted to try all of Soap & Glory’s body washes, because they are so lovely. I do like this one and it is from the Fruitigo fragrance line, but the body washes last forever, so I got bored of the scent! I have a back-up that I got for Christmas though, but I will be using a Vera Wang shower gel before I start using Soap & Glory Clean Girls body was
