Empties: #5

1. Maybelline Baby Lips Lip Balm - Energising Orange I've already fully  reviewed these and they've been in most of my empties. In essence they are very moisturising and smell divine. This specific one smells like artificial oranges (not my favourite scent of the bunch). I'm trying to find the perfect lip balm and let me tell you it is not easy. So I'll finish the ones I have but I'm not 100% sure about repurchasing it. 2. Maybelline Baby Lips Lip Balm - Smoothing Cherry I probably should have put these together but whatever. The scent of this one is a bit strange but pleasant it's hard to describe but I will say it doesn't smell like cherries. It's not an overwhelming smell but the scent is a little sweet. I love the colour combo on the packaging of this one. It's so pretty. Would I repurchase? We'll see 3. Dior Ultimate Eyes Mascara (sample) This does NOTHING for my lashes. I'm glad this was a sample and I got t...

Empties: #4

1. Guci Envy Me EDT Notes: Peony, Pink Pepper, Pineapple, Pomegranate, Lychee, Sandalwood, Musk  I would describe this scent as floral, somewhat sweet (not overly sweet), classy and a bit tangy. The longevity is not that great it's about 2-3 hours. I got this perfume a long time ago, at the time I enjoyed the smell but my taste has since changed and I'm not really a fan anymore. But the bottle is beautiful. Would I repurchase? No 2. AVON Wink EDT Top notes: pink grapefruit, cranberry, raspberry, red currant, black currant, blueberry Mid notes: freesia, calla lily, jasmine, water lily, lotus, rose Base notes: blonde wood, musk This scent is extremely fruity and sweet. This is the kind of scent I love but my problem with this is the longevity, it literally lasts an hour on me. Terrible... just terrible. I'm looking for a perfume that suits my taste but that also lasts all day. I think this is discontinued but you can find it on eb...

Empties: #3 (Skincare)

As a reference I have combination skin. Non sensitive and not acne prone.  1. Biore Revitalise 4-in-1 Self Foaming Cleanser This is my second bottle of this cleanser. I love it. For the first few uses it tingles slightly on the skin which I love however the tingling does stop after using the product for a while. It makes my face feel clean without being tight. Would I repurchase? Definitely  2. Warming Anti-Blackhead Cream Cleanser  This did NOTHING for me. I have blackheads all around my nose and this did nothing to diminish them. The product itself doesn't warm up for long, the heat last for around 10 seconds and really doesn't do anything. It has very, very small exfoliating beads (ingredients) but personally I prefer something a bit more rough because this one just did nothing for me.   Would I repurchase?  Definitely n o 3. Garnier Clean Sensitive 2 in 1 Gentle Make-up Remover Love, Love, Love. This is really good ...

Empties: #2 (Haircare)

1. Head & Shoulders Eucalyptus  I received this sample from PinchMe (overview coming soon), and loved it. I don't know what it is about the smell but it smelt like candy to me. Surprisingly I got about 5 uses from this tiny sample so I was really able to test it out. If you have a sensitive scalp I don't think this'll be good for you. While it doesn't tingle I would still suggest you stay away. If you have a problem with your hair falling out in the shower I recommend this and the Head & Shoulders anti breakage shampoo. While I still have hair fallout it is about 3/4 less than it used to.  Repurchase: Already have  2. Organic Care Nourish Shampoo  This is a nice shampoo. It smells like coconut and macadamia and it did a good job of cleaning my hair. I used to repurchase this all the time for about a year but I decided to try other products which worked out a lot better for me so unfortunately I won't repurchase it but I loved it whil...

Empties: #1

These are a few products I've finished and collected over the last 3 months.  1. Organic Care Nourish Conditioner I've been using this conditioner for a year now mainly because it's so cheap. You can get it at Safeway and Priceline for around $3. But I continue to repurchase it because it smells like coconut and macadamia and makes my hair nice and soft. Its also environmentally friendly and doesn't contain harsh chemicals. I HIGHLY recommend checking it out.  Repurchase: Definitely 2. Derma 3 in 1 Facial Wipes This is exclusive to Coles. You can buy it for $2 for 25 wipes but they always have 3 for 2 sales. It's good value for an awesome product. I don't wear liquid foundation so I can say anything about that. I do however where a lot of eye makeup. It does a decent job, removing about 98%, however it doesn't remove waterproof mascara :( But other than that it gets the job done. It feels really fresh on the skin, the wipes don't dry ou...
