October Empties

I love this time of Year - it means lots of pamper nights in and wrapping up warm and snuggly writing lots of blog posts. I love having a good old nosy at other bloggers Monthly empties posts, so I thought I would share a few products I have finished recently.

The product I am most sad about using up is the Clinique Take The Day Off Makeup Remover. I have mentioned previously on my blog that this quickly became a firm favourite of mine. It is brilliant at removing eye make-up and I would recommend if you have sensitive skin like mine.
I hadn't used a Lush product in a while, so I was really looking forward to using Lush The Comforter Shower Cream* which I received in a very generous blogger meet goodie bag. The scent is so comforting (pardon the pun) and is sweet and relaxing. I will probably make a purchase of this next time I head to Lush.
I also used up my Britney Spears Circus Fantasy Perfume recently. I think it makes a good 'day-time' perfume; it smells refreshing, but it didn't bowl me over so I won't be rushing out to repurchase this. Lastly, I used up the Cath Kidston Wild Roses Hand Cream, it is quite moisturising and smells lovely, I didn't find it greasy either so I would probably pick this up again in the future.

Recent Empties

It has been a while since I shared on my blog some of the products I have used up. I thought it was about time I did. What have you finished off recently?

Grace Cole Moments Body Lotion

This body lotion seemed to take a long time for me to finish. It was an average product, it was quite nice and light but didn't moisturize as well as I would have liked.

Argania Desert Defence Shampoo*

I really liked this shampoo, this is my second bottle. It really helps to cleanse my hair and removes all of the product out of my hair really well, and it smells great too.

Sanctuary Spa Gentle Polish Body Scrub

This is my all - time favourite body scrub, I always repurchase. The beads really work into the skin - it isn't too gritty but you do feel like you are getting a good scrub out of the product, if that makes sense! 

Balance Me Hand and Body Wash*

I have been using this mainly as a hand wash because it smells amazing, but it also doubles up as a really great body wash. It lasted us a while.

Soap and Glory The Righteous Butter

This is one of those cult pamper products, am I right? I think everyone and their mum has tried this. I really do like it as it is so thick and very moisturising. I do think it takes a long time to finish a tub off though!

Radox Shower Gel in Coconut Kiss

I usually love Radox products but I just didn't like the scent of this, the coconut smelt way too synthetic for me. It lathered a lot and cleansed well, I just didn't like the scent.

Recent Empties

I think this Months empties post should be renamed the gift set empties post as I have used up a load of beauty products I received in Christmas gift sets etc. 

Soap and Glory The Righteous Butter x3 (!): That's right, I have finished off three tubs of Soap and Glory's infamous body butter this Month. It has taken me absolutely ages to finish using the huge tub, and the little tubs have been sat in my vanity for ages with barely any product left inside, so decided to finish them all off! I do love this body butter as it is my go-to product if I want smooth and soft skin. I think I will stay away from the S&G section in Boots for a while though!

Tesco Indulgent Conditioner in Coconut: Just a basic conditioner here for every day really, it smells really nice but it isn't a brilliant conditioner and I wouldn't write home about it but we've finally finished it all off. I probably wouldn't rush out to get it again.

Lipsy Body Scrub: This is just a random body scrub that we had in our bathroom, it was quite a nice scent and it was a decent body scrub, not much all to say about it really. 

Sanctuary Body Lotion x2: More body lotions! These are lovely body lotions but we have far too many of them. it looks like one of them still has product left, which it does but it is stuck and I am just not that bothered about cutting it open to rescue it. 

Gorgeous By Gok Shower Scrub: This product is absolutely gorgeous. I love Gok and absolutely love when Boots sold his Christmas gift sets. I would definitely buy this again but I am unsure if they are available to buy any more.

Cussons Imperial Leather Soft Touch Moisturising Shower Cream with Jojoba Milk & Vitamin E: I have finished off another bottle of this beautiful shower cream this Month. It is becoming the 'norm' now for me to pick this up when I go grocery shopping as we both love the scent and it generally is a really good body wash. 

Hask Argan Oil Intense Deep Conditioning Hair Treatment: This was a little treat for my hair mid week last week. It was a nice conditioning treatment which made my hair quite soft  I did like it but prefer Hask's Oil Treatments rather than this conditioning treatment. 

Soap and Glory Heel Genius: I have finally used this up. It smells really fresh but I don't think it is a great foot cream to be honest! I have a few tubes of this and they always come in the big gift sets at Christmas but they are something I could live without.

May Empties

It feels like I haven't written an Empties post in such a long time. They were one of my favourite posts to write when I first began blogging and I am not sure why I stopped writing them! Today I am here with quite a hefty post full of empty products, where I will be giving you the low - down on each and every product I finished this Month. 

Cussons Imperial Leather Soft Touch Moisturising Shower Cream with Jojoba Milk & Vitamin E

This has quickly become my favourite shower cream. I have been reaching for it every day, it smells beautiful and lathers a lot by using the tiniest amount of product. This 300 ml bottle cost me about 80p (!) from Tesco. I am not sure why the price is so low, but have spotted the bigger bottles in the pound shop too. I hope it isn't being discontinued! I will definitely be stocking up as it smells gorgeous and makes me skin feel super soft. 

Clearasil Ultra Overnight Wash

This face wash has been in our bathroom for what seems like an eternity, and me and my sister have finally finished it off. It is a nice facial wash, which is easy to apply to wash your face before bed. I do like this, but haven't seen or felt any amazing results from it, so probably wouldn't rush to the shops to get another one. 

FCUK Body Spray

This is a mini spray of FCUK's original scent. It smells quite oriental and floral. The scent doesn't last very long, but is ideal to pop in your handbag if you are on the go and need a quick spritz. 

Superdrug Coconut & Shea Butter Bath Milk

I picked this up not long ago and it hasn't lasted very long! It is a lovely bath milk which smells divine. I love anything coconut scented! This bath milk makes your bath smell beautiful, I would definitely pick this up again next time I am in Superdrug. 

Sanctuary Spa Covent Garden Body Lotion

In all honestly, we have about 6 bottles of Sanctuary Body Lotion in our house (no lie!) so it is a relief when we finish them off! I love the scent and it is very moistursing, but lasts forever! 

Scandalous Gorgeously Rich Moisturising Shampoo

Another product that has been in our bathroom for a while waiting to be used up, this shampoo smells gorgeous and I really do think it has helped make my hair feel softer and look a little more silkier, too.

Lovea Nourishing Mask

A truly amazing hair mask - I would definitely recommend. My hair feels in much better condition after I use this - I am gutted I have used it all up, but will definitely be purchasing another! I reviewed this in full here* last Month if you fancy a more in depth post.

Soap and Glory Butter Yourself Moisturise Lotion

Another moisturiser used up this Month, is Soap and Glory's 'Butter Yourself'. I have to be honest in saying I didn't enjoy using this product at all, which is strange coming from a huge Soap and Glory fan like me. I just didn't like the scent all too much of this product, and didn't really feel it made my skin feel softer. Also, it seemed to take a long time to sink into the skin.

Elemis Spa Home Jasmine and Rose Milk Bath*

I absolutely love Elemis Bath products, and I adore this scent. This was a little 60ml bottle, but lasted a fair few baths. I was kindly given this at an event recently, and am thinking of purchasing it in full size I love it that much! My skin felt fantastic after using this in my bath. 

Matrix Biolage Color Last Cera Repair

I adore this product for treating my dull and lifeless coloured hair  It brings out the vibrance of my colour, it truly is a great product and I would recommend if you have permanently dyed hair like me.

I featured this product in a recent review which can be found here*. This product and others similar are available at Hairtrade. 

Macadamia Deep Hair Masque

I am a big fan of Macadamia products, and this hair masque is one of my favourites. I am unsure where I picked this 30ml sachet from now, but I love using them. It ensures my hair feels silky soft after use, something my hair desperately needs as it is is terrible condition at the moment. 

Have you tried any of the products I used up?

*I was gifted one product (Elemis Milk Bath) in a blogger event goody bag. I was not asked to feature this product on my blog . All opinions are 100 %  honest and my own. You can view my full disclaimer policy on the contact tab above*

Recent Empties

 


Its been a while since I have written an empties post but I love reading them and thougth I would share a few bits of used up as of late.

The Body Shop Cranberry Joy Body, Room and Linen Spiriz:
I pick up things like this in the sales and fall in love with them. This scent is much stronger and long - lasting than the Avon Room and Body sprays.

Paris Hilton Perfume:
This is a repurchase as I love this perfume, it smells very girly and super sweet. it is quite hard to rack down though, so I get mine from Body Care or online.

So..? Brit Perfume:
This was just something I had in my handbag for work, it was nice but nothing I would rush out to buy again.

Yankee Candle im Warm Spice:
I bought this when I was in Yorkshire from a Clintons Cards Outlet store and it cost less than £6! Complete bargain. It lasted really well and the scent is beautiful, very strong and made my bedroom smell very much like cinammon.

Soap and Glory Scrub Your Nose In It:
This is a face/clay scrub or mask by the lovely Soap and Glry, I really liked using this as it was very fresh and smelt slightly minty. It made my skin feels fresh and awake so I would buy this again once I have used all of my other face masks.

Batiste Dry Shampoo (for dark/deep brown hair):
Another repurchase, I love Batiste dry shampoo but this is my favourite as it leaves no white marks on my hair as it is aimed for dark brown hair. It gives good volume and leaves hair looking clean and refreshed.

Soft & Gentle Extra Fresh Antiperspirant in lotus and Watermelon:
Just a random one here, this was nice but nothing extra - special, a boring empty roduct but it was pleasant and did the job!

January Empties

January Empties

A random bunch of empty products as usual!

Rubbish quality iPod photographs again... blame my camera playing up :-(

Palmolive Milk and Honey Shampoo For Dry Hair

This was nothing to write home about, just a cheap shampoo to get me through the month really! I would probably buy it again, it is isn't my first choice though!

Alberto Balsam Coconut and Lychee Conditioner For All Hair Types

This is a really great brand you can pick up for really cheap in the pound shops! It leaves my hair feeling quite soft, and I adore the smell of coconut so its a win-win for me really!

Monsoon Moisturising Body Lotion

It is not often I feature products I don't like, but I used this product up this month and I really did detest it! I couldn't wait to finish it. I didn't find it moisturising at all, and the scent of it was way too over powering and just didn't smell nice at all it semlt a little like when you were younger and you mixed loads of strong perfumes together, if that makes sense? I definitely wont be using this again. 

The Body Shop Coconut Body Butter (50 ml)

I love this body butter, I had forgotten I had it due to trying to use up all f my Soap and Glory body butters! I finished it off this month, I would recommend these body butters to everyone, they are very moisturising and the scents are gorgeous, especially this one, although I would say that as I am huge fan of coconut!

Baylis and Harding Beauticoligy Sweet Gingerbread Body Wash

I liked this product. It smelt like cheap gingerbread which I love and was a very festive scent. This was part of a Christmas Gift Set so it is no longer available, although I wouldn't mind using it again.

Double Dip Lip Balm

I am on a mission this year to finish a lot of my lip balms and stop hoarding them! I used this up in about a month and a half, it was nice and smelt nice, an average lip balm really. I wont be buying it again though as I find Nivea lip balms to be much more helpful for my chapped lips.

Sanctuary Body Scrub

This is my favourite Sanctuary product, it smells amazing, the beads in the scrub are great when exfoliating and it is probably one of my holy grail bath and body products. I have another tube of this from the bargain gift set I talked about here. 

Persian Jewel Bath Foam 

This is a bit of a random product, I received it for Christmas, and had never heard of the brand or anything about it before. It was a good bubble bath, the consistancy was a little like jelly which isn't my favourite thing, but once foamed up in the bath it was lovely. It smelt just like passion - fruit. 

Taylor Swift Wonderstruck Perfume (5 ml) 

I absolutely adore this perfume, it smells very girl-y and floral and lasts well, I love this little 5 ml pot of perfume you got free in the gift set, too! I cheekily bought two T.S perfume gift sets in the sale, so I have another one of these to use up too! I would recommend this perfume if you like sweet and girl-y scents.

Versace Perfume Sample

It doesn't state the perfumes name on this little vaporizer  but it smelt very mature and quite strong, but wasn't over - powerful. I received this from a give away from the lovely Gemma. 

Impulise Temptation Vanilla and Peach

I picked this up just after Christmas, seeing it was new I really wanted to try it. It smells GORGEOUS!! I loved it. It smelt exactly of peach, lasted a good few hours and did the job. 

So..? Fab Body Spray

This is a common repurchase of mine, and I am pretty sure it has featured in my Empties posts quite a good few times! I just really adore the sweet sugary scent, it smells just like sweets!

Another thing I used up this month which I didn't photograph was an MUA clear mascara, as I had been using it to set my eye brows about a year ago and completely forgot about it, found it out last week and obviously chucked it! I have never used it as a mascara, but I would not recommend it to set your eye brows, as it just never worked for me. 

What have you used up this month?

Recent Empties

Recent Empties

I know everyone is saying this but I cannot believe we are now in January 2013 - what?! I think the last year has definitely been the fastest year in my entire life!

Anyway, here are some of my recent empties. I missed November Empties so thought I would just pop on any photographs of empties I had taken since then. 

I am not sure if any of you find these posts very interesting as the random empties I use up are pretty regular and always very similar - but I really enjoy writing about products I have used up. 

The photo quality is awful I will pre-warn you and I apologize in advance, there is a complete mix of random things this month!

Superdrug Eyebrow Shapers

I used all of these up a few weeks ago, I need to go back to Superdrug and get some more! I really do like these as they are an alternative way of shaping your eye brows if you haven't got the time to go to a beauty salon or the money. I have been using these every two or three weeks or so for a good few months now. They aren't the best in the world, and off course you have to be careful you don't rip your eyebrows off in the process of using these, but I have got on quite well with them and am definitely repurchasing them.

Garnier Fructis Frizz Tamer Conditoner Sleek & Shine

Schwarzkopf Gliss Hair Repair Oil Nutritive Conditioner

Nothing particularly amazing about these two conditioners, but I preferred the Garnier conditioner as it seemed to calm down my hair post wash. I would probably pick them up again in the future but they were nothing extraordinary. 

Nivea Essential Care Lip Balm

Lip balms are the one product I hoard adore that I don't think I have ever actually used up one tube of! I have been using this lip balm every day in the morning and night for a few months, it is very moisturising on the lips and is a great price too. I would buy this again as it it works and is very affordable.

Soap and Glory Hand Maid Hand Sanitizing Gel

I recently used all of my hand-sanitizer gel up by Soap and Glory. It is a great product which smells nice, but nothing to write home about. There is not a lot I can say about hand gel is there really! I probably would buy this again but at £2.50, there are cheaper alternative from brands just as good (Sorry S&G!).

Garnier Ultra Lift Anti Wrinkle Firming Cream Samples

I have been using these samples this month to see if I notice any difference to my skin. I know, at 21, I don't have wrinkles, but I would love firmer skin so decided to give these free samples a whirl. I haven't as of yet noticed a difference as I haven't been using them long. Depending on how it is, I will consider buying the pot myself :)

Collection 2000 Pressed Powder in 18 Ivory

I love this setting powder, I have used it for years and I cant even fathom the amount of these I have gone through! They dont last too long but are so inexpensive it doesn't bother me. As you can see I have used every last bit haha! Does anyone else do this?

T Zone Shine Control Cleansing Wipes

I picked these up on a whim as they were pretty cheap and needed some wipes for on the go. They were alright, but I hated the scent! I cant describe it I just didn't like it at all - I much prefer unscented facial wipes, so I wont be picking these up again.

Asda Protect For Women Moisture Rich Anti Perspirant Original

I really liked this deoadrant, not a lot to say about it but did the job! I go through deodrant like nobody's business and am always trying out different brands and supermarkets own products so I probably owuld buy this again. 

Natural Collection Wild Strawberry Body Spray

I always buy this when I am in Boots as I adore strawberry scent and this is so long-lasting and for £2 is so so cheap! 

That is it for everything over the past few weeks!

October Empties

October Empties.

Hello all, hope you are all well. Another empties post, hasn't October gone quick!?

I hope you don't mind my Monthly Empties posts. I noticed they are very similar as I don't tend to mix it up when it comes to hair care, body care and make - up. I kind of stick to what I know, but I am going to delve into my cupboards and try and use up the things I have left behind!

Tesco 'Pink' Body Spray -54p

Another very cheap body spray again. I seem to go through body sprays like no tomorrow! This was nice at first spray, but throughout the day it began smelling like TCP! It was okay, but I don't think I'll buy this one again in a hurry.

Avon Little Black Dress Perfume 50ml - Around £10

Everyone knows how much I adore this scent. Its very mature and has a hint of musk to it, and honestly does linger all day. I am sad to see it go, as I know I wont get another until Christmas (I always get it at Christmas) as I don't have an Avon book delivered any more. 

Avon Little Black Dress Parfum Body Spray - £2

As I said above, this scent is delicious and lasts a long time on the skin, I think its very affordable for a perfume body spray. I proabbly wont buy this for a while unless it is gifted to me at Christmas, which is a shame.

So...? Fab EDT 30ml - £5.99

I adore this little spray. It is very cheap and affordable, so I pick one up every month or so to pop in my bag for work. It is super sweet and I adore it. I will be repurchasing this soon.

Garnier Daily All-In-One BB Cream (In Light) Sample

I really wanted to pick up a BB cream as an alternative to foundation in the day time. I gave this sample a trial last week and it was much too dark for my skin. It states light on the packet so I am unsure what shade it is. I cant really comment on its effectiveness as I didn't wear it for long due to the colouring.

Benefit The Porefessional Pro Balm

I had previously purchased the full sized product of this way back in Summer 2010, and I absolutely hated it. Soon after using it daily, I completely broke out in absolutely awful skin. I never went back to the Benefit Counter to complain, but assumed I may have got one of a 'bad batch', because all of the reviews I had read raved about how amazing it was. When it was free in Instyle magazine a few months back, I decided to give it another go, having not used it for 2 years. I was wrong to try this again. My skin didn't break out again but I did have quite a few blemishes appear after using it for about two weeks, and I believe it was the culprit. I don't really think it keeps my make-up on much longer, or makes my make-up look a great deal better, either. I personally would not repurchase this from previous experience, it may be my skin type as I have very oily skin, I am unsure. I am just glad to be rid of it and wont be picking it up again, freebie or not!

Superdrug Dry Shampoo in Chocolate Brownie - £1.99

Two more of my favourite dry shampoos are gone (I tend to use about fave bottles of the same thing at the same time, am I weird?!) and another has been used up since then! I adore it, great for giving a fresh look and giving volume to the hair. As I have said in the past, it is a dark brown liquid which is brilliant as most dry shampoos are white or clear and are noticeable on my hair. I will most definitely be stocking up on some more!

That is all I have photographed this month, I forgot to photograph a Alberto Balsam Shampoo and also random deodorants. I am useless at remembering to photograph things before I chuck them out!

How was your October?

September Empties

Another month has gone by, how on Earth? Alas, October is upon us, here is September's empties post. Not a lot this month really, just a few body sprays, perfumes and other bits of pieces. I completely forgot to save my empty bottles of shampoo and conditioner this month so I have missed those off. 

I must apologize for the photos (again) as my camera is still playing up and I am using my Iphone camera until it gets fixed. Hope that is okay!

Accessorize Perfume, Original, 50ml. £15. 

I absolutely adore this scent. I had it the Christmas they laucnhed it and have repurchased it every time I have ran out ever since as I love it so much. Iti is a very floral and girl-y, beautiful scent. I cant seem to find this instore anymore though - its a simiale one with blue prints. I really hope they still stock this!

Paris Hilton Perfume, Fairy Dust, 30ml. Around £8

It is no secret that I love Paris Hilton Perfumes; I have had about half off her fragrances and love them all. My partner brought me this one for my birthday as I had never had it before, it is lovely! Its very fresh but at the same time smells sweet. i am rubbish at explaining scents. This is another of her lovely fragrances I am sure I will repurchase in the future.

Charlie Body Spray, Star, £1.

I picked this up when I was in Poundland a few weeks ago as I had just ran out of body spray and needed something to pop in my bag for work. I have always loved Charlie (I still use the Charlie Red Perfume since a little girl!) and thought I would give this a try. It was nothing special, just your average body spray but you can definitely tell it is Charlie. I may pick this up again, but it was nothing to write home about.

ASDA Essentials Body Spray, Pink, 54p

You are probably thinking 'OMG How tight are you?!' but I picked this up as my body sprays had all ran out (they all seem to at once don't they or is that just me?!) and I needed the change for the bus fare home and it worked out buying this and another item gave me the exact change for the bus fare. I am in no way snobby with body sprays and don't at all mind trying out Supermarket own brands in other products, so I thought at 54p I had nothing to lose. 

It was OK, the scent was slightly sweet but didn't last too long, but did the job of feeling a bit refreshed during work. I probably would buy this again if I was on a tight budget as it did the job, and after all, it is only a body spray, what's the need to pay the earth?! 

I have even, since then bought the Tesco own branded 'Pink' body spray at you guessed it, 54p! Who knew you could get body sprays so cheap?!

Loreal Paris Studio Secrets Professional Smoothing Resurfacing Primer, around £14

I bought this quite a few months ago now, and have only just got round to using it all up. I remember when I bought it I was after a decent primer, as the ones I used before were useless. I was little disappointed with this. It did the job, but my make up seemed to stay on the same amount of time as it would if I didn't wear primer at all. I am pretty neutral about this product, but probably wouldn't repurchase, as when I brought it, it was £12.99 and its now rocketed up to over £14! Complete rip off in my opinion. 

Miss Sporty Liquid Concealer in 001 Light, £2.99

I like this product, it blends in really well. My only fault is the colour range - I chose the lightest (I am very pale and am the lightest shade in all make up) after being very well blended in it was fine though. I may repurchase this in the future as it is cheap, but I am on the look out for a better concealer which can completely cover my under eye circles. If you know of a good one, let me know!

Superdrug Dry Shampoo, Chocolate Brownie, Mini, 99p

I bought this to pop in my handbag as I already own a handful of the full sized bottles. I adore these dry shampoo's. As they are for dark hair, the product liquid colour is dark, which I find brilliant as most dry shampoos product is white/grey and shows up very badly on my dark brown hair. This is brilliant for using for back-combing too, I really would suggest this Dry Shampoo to anyone with dark coloured hair, for me it is a Godsend! 

I love... Coconut & Cream Shower Gel/Bubble Bath, 400ml, £1

I found this ultimate bargain in Poundland (yes I adore a bargain). I love the I love... range and it was the largest bottle of shower gel they stocked, so a great deal really! I adore the scent of coconut too, although once home and having tried it, I didn't think it smelt much like coconut, more like very sweet home-made biscuits! Very random, and still very nice, but not much like coconut. Not to grumble though, a huge bottle for just a £1, lathered nicely and lasted ages! I may have to stock up again now!

That is it for my September Empties!

What products have you been loving this September?

August Empties

I cannot even begin to believe it is September already (well, it will be tomorrow, heh) which means lots of warm winter clothes, bonfires and Christmas parties! My favourite time of year!

Here's what I used up this month:

Boots Natural Collection Wild Strawberry Body Spray, £2. 

I adore this scent SO MUCH! I get so many compliments when I am wearing it, at work every comments how lovely I smell and ask where I got my perfume from! When I tell them its a body spray for £2 no-one believes me! I love the scent of this, I have worn it for a while now and repurchased it a handful of time, I will definitely pick it up again. It is very sweet, so if you love sweet and fruit scents this is definitely something to go and sniff.

Sex In The City Lust EDP, 100 ml. Around the £4-5 mark.

I had this in a gift set I received at Christmas, but like most ladies I received a big bunch of beauties and smellies over Xmas I only began using this in the start of July. The name of this perfume has nothing to do with the series Sex and the City by the way! Its a very girly, floral scent. My sister has the pink 'love' scent, which is much more sweeter and fruity than this. Unfortunately it didn't seem to last long, but alas, was still very refreshing and nice anyway. I liked this, I am unsure where you can buy these from now (I know you used to be able to get them from Body care and Home Bargains) but I will pick one up when I see one. 

Nivea Double Effect 48h Anti Perspirant, £2

Heres something a bit boring, but I used it up this month! Its just your average anti-perspirant. It isn't my favourite as I feel it leaves white marks on clothes (sounds gross I know, apologies!) so I wont be buying this again. 

Mark Hill Holiday Hair Beach To Bar Dry Shampoo, £5.99

I actually won this in an amazing give away last month, loved it so much I have already brought a replacement! It is everything you want in a dry shampoo. It doesn't leave your hair greasy, but very refreshed and is brilliant for back-combing! 

The Pink Cow Mint Candy Bath and Shower Gel, £2

I picked this up on a whim last month as I adore mint scents. I had never heard of the company brand before, but thought I would give it a whirl. It was absolutely gorgeous! It leaves your skin feeling very soft and smells divine! I got it from Home Bargains, but when I shopped there a week ago they no longer stocked it. I have had a little research online and cannot find anywhere else that stocks it, if you know do let me know! (I think they rebranded their name to The Little Bubble Co). 

So...? Fab EDT 30ml,  £5.99

If you have been reading my blog a while now, you will already know how obsessed I am with this scent! It is the sweetest, nicest, very 'immature' scent ever but I adore it. I already have two backs -ups of this in storage! 

Impulse Love Puzzle, Limited Edition Body Spray, £2

Another smelly this month! I bought this as it is fairly new and I hadn't tried it, it reminded me a little of palmaviolets sweets! Its very nice and does the job, so I would probably buy again.

Thats it lovelies, another monthly empties post done! What was your favourite product of August?

What are you looking forward to for the rest of the year?

July Empties

Another months gone by - which means another monthly empties post! How fast is this year going really?!

Sorry for the slightly strange photo of these empty products in the bathroom sink... I just cannot keep empty bottles around my room for a whole month, I am a little OCD! (This is why the products are all in separate photographs, taken at different times). I thought it would look really artistic, turns out it doesn't at all!

1. FCUK Body Butter - Love FCUK body care products, have used them for years. I do like this body butter but it has lasted an eternity.

2. Original Source Chocolate and Mint Shower Gel - I picked this up on a whim the other day, you may have seen it in a previous blog post. I don't know what I was expecting really. I really, really disliked it. I will not be buying it again. I don't know what possessed me to buy it! I thought it would be lovely cause I love chocolate, and then it dawned on me: why would I want to smell like chocolate? People must think I dived into a swimming pool full of after eights. I just didn't feel very clean with it I guess, probably because I love fresh, floral and fruity scents.

3. Little Black Dress Body Cream- I absolutely ADORE this scent. It is a favourite of mine from Avon, and I love it. I'm sad it has gone and I will have to wait a few weeks for another :( I much prefer body creams to body butters. 

4. Natural Collection Ice Musk Spray - This smells very fresh and musky at the same time, its really refreshing and a bargain at £2. I will most likely be purchasing it again.

5. Charlie Chic Body Spray - I love Charlie body sprays, but often tend to buy the So...? body sprays over these. This one is a gorgeous, very sexy scent, very different to the more musky heavy scents like Charlie Red/Blue.

6. Next Just Red EDT 100ml - I cannot express enough of how much I hate this product! Not particularly for the scent, for the packaging! As you can see the red has pretty much chipped all off the glass, and it has gone everywhere in my bag and make up drawer! Every time you touch it,more of the red chipping comes off! I quite liked the scent but the packaging has completely threw me off, I'm not sure whether Next still sell this, but I definitely will not be buying this product again.

7. Gorgeous By Gok - Rich Moisturising Body Butter Mini - To say this is out of a Boots Christmas gift set, it is actually super moisturising and I am sad to see it go :( I cant wait for Xmas to come around again, and hope Boots stock these again!

8. Accessorize Body Lotion - This smells just like the original perfume, very floral and girly. Loved it!

9. Aussie Miracle Moist Conditioner Mini - I picked this up last weekend as I was away for the weekend attending a wedding. I hadn't used Aussie products for about 2 years, and had forgotten how gorgeous it leaves my hair and the heavenly scent, too. I used it up pretty quickly since then. 

10. Soap & Glory Glad Hair Day Daily Super Shampoo- I've had this shampoo for a while now, and like most Soap and Glory products, it smells delicious, but unfortunately I just couldn't see it doing anything good for my hair, so I don't think I will be repurchasing very soon.

11. Next Pure EDT 30ml -Another Next Perfume used up this month! Different to the other, I really liked this perfume. It smelt very musky and, as it is named 'pure' womanlyness. Does that make sense? Thought not. It is a gorgeous scent. It was the perfect size for my handbag, too. I had a nosey in next the other day to see if they still stock this, but couldn't find it. 

How has your July been?
