I like seeing empties post because it shows what other people may or may not like and see their opinions on different products. The title says 'recent' because as much as I would like to do a monthly empties post, I don't finish a product that quickly.
So here are the products I've finished recently;
Organix Repairing Shampoo and Conditioner with Awapuhi Ginger - I have seen a lot of posts about the Organix with Moroccan Oil so I thought to give it a try but when I saw that the brand also has a shampoo and conditioner that repairs I thought that would suit me better. I like the shampoo because it makes my hair feel moisturized even on days that I don't use the conditioner. I've been growing out my hair and its dry at the ends so I like these two for keeping my ends healthy.
Nivea Gentle Toner - I bought this product a few months ago to go with my Neutrogena skincare routine to help remove any makeup that may have not been removed with my cleanser while still hydrating my skin. Unfortunately, I did not see any results from this product and concluded that this is an unnecessary step in my regimen.
I Love.... Strawberries and Milkshake Shower Gel - This is the first product that I tried from I Love Cosmetics and was pleased with the brand. I like that this shower gel does not have a strong scent but still smells sweet
Neutrogena Rapid Clear Night Lotion - I find that products with Retinol work better for my acne prone skin than products with Salicylic Acid. I have the full Rapid Clear Kit from Neutrogena and found that the products helped my skin become clear and smooth.
La Roche Posay Mela-D Dark Spot Corrector - Since my skin is getting better from acne, I have been using this product to help lighten acne scars and hyper pigmentation. I have noticed a considerable result with this product so when Shoppers had a 20 x points for the Mela-D Serum I purchased the product right away!
Lush Retread Hair Conditioner - I bought this about 4 months ago when my ends were really dehydrated. I saw that my ends have gotten a little better with this product but not enough for me to purchase this again.
E.L.F. Waterproof Eyeliner Pen - I love this eyeliner because not only is this really opaque but also lasts long. I have oily lids so some eyeliners smudge and transfer easily but the E.L.F. eyeliner does not. Review and swatch here
Bath and Body Works Sweet Pea Candle - a non beauty empty that I thought to share as well. I just love the smell of Sweet Pea so much that I have this scent in shower gel, lotion, body mist and anti-bac as well.
What products have you finished lately?

Thank you for stopping by! I'll definitely check out your blog :)
DeleteI love seeing empties posts! I've been interested in those shampoo and conditioners...I may have to try those out :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, I really like the Organix hair products, I have a friend that uses the blue one actually and loves them as well :)
DeleteEmpties are my favourite! Great job the last month!
ReplyDeleteThank you! :)
DeleteHaha I thought I was the only one that cut her tubes and scrubbed the last drop of product LOL I might try the Neutrogena Rapid Clear products if I can find them where I live, I could use some help with my oily skin : /
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing these xx
Lol! I don't wanna waste the product specially when I love it! I love Neutrogena products, they help my sensitive skin and don't break me out. :)
DeleteI am just discovering emptie posts and love them. I will have to check out that Neutrogena Rapid Clear kit cause I have been getting alot of acne and I think its due to a sample I used recently since that was the only thing I changed.
ReplyDeleteI found out from Rachel Ray's show recently that if you use one of those paint saver twistables on the tubes it helps get all the product out of a tube.
I love empties post too! :) Thanks for the tip! We have them at home but we only use them for toothpaste and I've never thought of using them on my skin care tubes. lol
DeleteOrganix has some really great products! I'm with you on the Nivea Toner...I cannot get myself to finish it because it just doesn't do much for me. I want to try the La Roche Posay Corrector for my acne scarring as well, thanks for recommending! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you :) I hope the La Roche works out for you :)
DeleteI've been thinking about trying the Awapuhi Ginger shampoo from organix. I really want to but I'm still on the fence, because I read that organix shampoos are really drying.
ReplyDeleteI've read about that before too! But in my case, at first it was a little drying but the more I used it, the smoother my hair got. I guess, my hair needed to get used to it
