Welcome to my first Empties post of the year! I had a bit of a clear out this month, which is still on-going I’m afraid to say! Let’s get into what I managed to rid myself of! Schwarzkopf Palette Intensive Cream Colour in 678 Ruby Red I dyed my hair again this month just before Christmas. I still haven’t found another type I am interested in using. I think I might try a new colour sometime this year, maybe a lighter brunette. 115ml | £3.98 Figs & ROUGE Lip Balm Tin in Rambling Rose I have the 8ml sample size, which I received last year in a Glossybox. When I first got it, it smelled so lovely of rose and I have barely used it and it has completely dried up, gone sticky and doesn’t smell at all. I am a little disappointed, but it is organic and probably why it spoils quickly. I probably would re-purchase it again, when I know for certain it will get used. 17ml | £4.95 Glade Candle in Honey & Chocolate This is the third candle I have had of this scent, so...

Berry Smoothie (050) - bright, soft berry pink The colour payoff is brilliant and it is very soft and shiny looking. It lasts quite a while on the lips too. £7.99 - Revlon.co.uk What do you think of this product? ♥ ♥ ♥

I have just opened up my e.l.f Studio Cream Eyeliners to find that all three are as hard as rocks and all of them have shrunk. Coffee is now the size of a marble! The evidence is below. I know cream/gel products don’t last for ever, but I have had other cream eyeliners a lot longer that are still useable. The cream eyeliner is brilliant when you first use it, but it doesn’t take long to turn crappy. I am very disappointed and will never buy another one from e.l.f! This isn’t a personal attack on e.l.f because I have tons of products from them that I love, but this is not good and I have heard others have had the same problem. Just be warned that if you do not use them, you lose them! Has this happened to you? ♥ ♥ ♥

I have another naughty haul for you today. It is kind of justified though and a couple of the products I have been waiting to buy for a long time. Firstly I got two gift sets because they were still half price. I got the Dove Radiance Duo Gift Set , which includes two body washes in Revive Pomegranate & Lemon Verbena, Burst Nectarine & White Ginger and a shower puff. Soap & Glory Bubble Barrelled Gift Set , which includes six miniature sizes of Clean On Me, Hand Food, The Scrub of Your Life, Heel Genius, Glad Hair Day, The Righteous Butter and a headband, which all come inside a beautiful shower bag. For regular purchases I got the Boots Tea Tree & Witch Hazel Peel Off Face Mask and Soap & Glory Rich and Foamous Body Wash . Lastly, I received two sample sachets of Nivea Cellular Anti-Age Skin Rejuvenation Day Cream . I bought this order with the Boots Advantage Card Points I had been saving. I was waiting to get a wash bag from Soap & Glory, which is...

I have another Snap Haul for you today. I have other hauls coming up too, but they are more grouped. I’ve been on a spending spree lately, I must stop!

Today I am going to share with you what I bought during the Winter sales. Firstly I went to Boots to collect my online order I made on Christmas Eve during the sales. I picked up the Lady GaGa Fame 50ml Gift Set , which includes the eau de parfum, shower gel and body lotion and the Soap & Glory Crazy Sexy Kohl Gift Set , which includes five eyeliners and three eyeshadows. I also received a free sample of Valentino’s ‘Valentina’ perfume with my order, which was excitingly unexpected. After I collected my order I noticed that the electric toothbrush I was after was half price in Boots, so I decided to get that too and I got an extra 10% discount off it. I got the Oral B Professional Care 3000 Electric Toothbrush , which includes three brush heads (Precision Clean, Floss Action & 3D White), a charger and station with brush head storage. Lastly I went to Argos to purchase some hair straighteners that I had reserved that morning because mine needed replacing. I bought the Nic...

I decided to buy this on a whim because the half-price sale was on. I decided to choose a colour instead of plain black for a change, plus it was out of stock anyway. I was also interested in the fact that it doesn’t need sharpening. The packaging is a small black plastic stick and the design is pretty simple and to the point. To dispense the product you need to remove the cap, which clicks back into place and twist the end of the pencil to reveal the product hidden inside. The formula is 100% mineral based, which means it is free from parabens, preservatives and chemical dyes. You get 0.21g of product and the shade I have is Midnight, which is a soft, dark navy blue that almost looks black. This eyeliner is supposed to give you a natural, soft and brilliant defined line and provide good coverage. It is also mean’t to be gentle for sensitive eyes and be easy for instant use because it doesn’t need sharpening. This is not a bad eyeliner, but I have tried better. It does g...
