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!

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 showing a packet for this type of product again because I now keep them in a container so there is no need for me to still have the packet and I don’t really want to save the empty packet until I have run out of them, just to show it in an Empties post!

Morrisons Daily Care Mouthwash in Cool Mint – 500ml
I’ve still been using this sort, but I re-purchased a different one to try out because I came across it whilst shopping when I needed one and thought, why not?
53p – no link can be found!

Macleans Confidence Anti-bacterial Mouth Spray – 15ml
I decided to buy this when it was on offer at £1 and I really like using it. When I first used it the taste was horrible, but obviously over time you must get used to the taste because I now can’t remember why I thought it tasted bad. It is definitely a good product but it is a bit expensive for what it is. I recently bought Morrisons own one and they are good but not as strong as this one. Plus I have a problem with the spray on the Morrison one because it has decided not to work, which means I cannot use it. So at the weekend I think I might buy more of this Macleans one.
£2.31 – click here!

Soap & Glory Hand Food – 125ml
I have had this tube nearly two years and have now finally used it up! I now have another tube and a bigger size in pump form to use up! I did like this hand cream but I preferred to use it a night time because it is quite thick. It smells really nice and is really smooth. I just wish Soap & Glory had this with other beneficial properties, such as, nail care. I am now trying to use up a Vaseline hand cream I have and then I am going to open my second tube of this hand cream.

Nivea Invisible For Black & White 48h Clear Anti-Perspirant Deodorant – 150ml
This is the smaller size and I still like this product and have just recently re-purchased it in the bigger size.
£2 to £4 – click here!

Morrisons Savers Shaving Foam – 250ml
This is just a basic shaving foam and it works and is very inexpensive. I have already re-purchased it and have been using it for years.
49p – no link can be found!

Home Bargains My Baby Wipes (Fragrance Free) – 72 Wipes
These wipes are actually unbranded, but you can find them in Home Bargains. They are just basic baby wipes that work and are cheap and easy to buy. I just bought them because they were convenient at the time. I am currently working my way through a second packet. I just tend to buy any baby wipes I see when I need them. I use them to remove my make-up before I wash and cleanse my face at night.
39p – no link can be found!

Soap & Glory Hand Maid Hand Cleansing Gel – 50ml
I really love this hand gel and I definitely used it quite quick compared to the hand gel in my January Empties. This one smells really nice and I have noticed I am using it all the time, which could have something to do with the scent and the fact that you don’t need to use too much because it spreads quite far and easily sinks in and leaves your hands lightly scented and germ free. I already had two more tubes of this and will continue re-purchasing when I have ran out. I just wish they did a bigger size in a pump to match the Soap & Glory hand food hand cream and wash your hands of it hand wash.
£2.50 – click here!

Don’t forget to look out for some reviews next month and maybe a nail polish collection post.

Thanks for reading!

Boots Fragrance Sampler Gift Set for Her 2015

I decided to treat myself to this little fragrance set. As you know, I am a perfume addict and I’m quite addicted to collecting perfume samples too! It’s this year’s Boots Fragrance Sampler set for Her. I saw last year’s advertised but I always thought it was a little expensive for what you get. The set basically contains eight samples of Boots best-selling female fragrances by other brands. The set comes in a small, thin cardboard box and each sample is set inside a plastic insert. You also get a small fragrance guide and the voucher, which is what you’ll need to get your full size bottle of your favourite sample. The eight samples in this year’s set are:- HUGO BOSS - Boss Ma Vie This is a 2ml sample vile in pipette form and can be exchanged for a 30ml bottle of the eau de parfum. “Inspired by the independent spirit of a woman, exuding a glow of femininity and confidence. Created around the cactus blossom, aiming to reinvent and modernize floral green notes ...

Glossybox #19 - December 2015

I have been really looking forward to this box as I knew it would be rose gold themed. All the products were carefully selected by the Beauty Blogger ReallyRee, for this special looking limited edition Christmas box.  Here is what I received:- être belle Golden Skin Caviar Eye Roll On | 10ml - £30.66 | This product is a bit odd and really doesn’t appeal to me at all! So Susan Statement Skin Highlighter Pencil in Starlight | 1.8g - £15.00 | This is a very strange colour and the cream shape is odd too. I am not interested in this product one bit. I prefer light pink highlighters and this is a yellow gold shade, not flattering at all for my skin tone! COLLECTION Long Lasting Nail Effects in Touch of Glamour (31) | 8ml - £2.99 | This nail polish looks really pretty and it is definitely my kind of shade (rose gold). I am looking forwarded to trying it on my nails. I think it would look beautiful on it’s own. Hylamide Pore Delete | 10ml - £18.00...

Katie Price 'Stunning' Perfume VS JoJo Siwa 'Be You' Perfume - Are they the same?

I was browsing on AllBeauty.com and looking at celebrity fragrances and I saw that one was listed for JoJo Siwa. I had heard of JoJo before, but I don’t really know anything about her. I clicked on it out of interest and when I first saw the image of the perfume, I thought maybe the wrong photograph had been uploaded until I clicked on it and saw the description of the perfume. When I first saw the photograph, before I clicked on it to read the description, I instantly thought, that’s Stunning by Katie Price! I looked into it a bit more and compared it to Stunning. The JoJo Siwa “version” is called Be You. Photo Source: Perfume.com Stunning by Katie Price ·          Released in 2007 (12 years ago). ·          Contains the notes; Mandarin Orange, Jasmine & Patchouli. ·          Classed as a floral scent. ·       ...
