February Empties | 2016

Hey everyone! It's that time again! You will get a closer look at all the products that I have used up this month and you will also get a mini-review of each product to see whether or not I feel as if it is a product worth purchasing!


Hair
L'Oreal Kids Tangle Tamer for Wet & Dry Hair - I have repurchased this in the past and now, I feel that I am over this product. It isn't delivering the same results that it used to and it is an unnecessary step in my hair care routine. Also, I barely smell the sweet pear scent that it claims to deliver.

Selsun Blue Deep Cleansing Micro-Bead Scrub Anti-Dandruff Shampoo - There is 3% Salicylic Acid in here and I like to leave it on my scalp for at least 5 minutes. I feel that it really deep cleans my scalp and it does the job. I have an oily yet dry scalp which can be hard to manage. I love this brand but this isn't my favourite product within the line. Both my brother and I use this brand regularly. 

Teeth
Colgate Total Whitening Toothpaste Gel - This is a standard product and very basic. It does the job and isn't anything special. I would categorize it in my "plains."

Sunstar G.U.M. Advanced Care Flossers - These are great to use and very inexpensive. They do not break when you are using them and are quite durable. I bought mine at Wal-Mart for a few dollars and will repurchase!

Face
Pond's Exfoliating Renewal Wet Cleansing Towelettes - For years, Pond's has been my favourite brand of cleansing cloths to use on my face. They can get expensive and for that reason, I have used other brands. This package includes 30 towelettes and has both citrus & cucumber scents. I feel that these do not dry out as fast as some of the other makeup wipes that I have used in the past and that it really takes off the majority of my makeup. They are sturdy and do not break while I use them and I only need to use one to get off my full face of makeup.

Bioré Deep Cleansing Pore Strips - You already know that I am a huge fan of using Biore strips. When I seen this box in the store, I was a bit hesitant because you are getting less strips for the same amount of money. Let me tell you right now that these get EVERYTHING OFF. They are well worth the money and these are slowly becoming my favourite product in the line.

OXY Emergency Acne Vanishing Spot Gel - I was one of the winners in a OXY contest and this was one the the items that they sent me in the prize pack. I felt that it was mediocre. I didn't have high hopes to begin with and even though it DID do a good job at drying out the pimple(s), it also did dry out my skin. In the winter time, my skin is already dry enough to begin with and to get even more dry is a pain to deal with. This will not be a staple in my skin care routine unfortunately. 

Body
Gilette Venus Shaving Gel in Luscious Lilies - I really enjoy most of the shaving gels and creams in this line. I enjoyed the scent and will continue to repurchase from Gillette as it is my go-to!

Bath & Body Works Sonoma Weekend Escape 24 Hour Moisture Ultra Shea Body Cream - This is one of my favourite scents from Bath & Body Works and there are notes of: pear nectar, Sonoma peach and sun drenched oak! This is really a great line and I purchased it for my friends as well as my family! It is a light scent and the formula is very hydrating. I mentioned it in my latest Youtube video. 

Hands
Bath & Body Works Gentle Foaming Hand Soap in Oh Snap! Jolly Gingerbread - This was a great festive soap to use around the holidays. The packaging looks great in the bathroom and is very fun!

Vitamins
Nature's Bounty Hair, Skin & Nails Gummies with Biotin - I have a few blog posts talking about this particular product because I just can't seem to get enough of it! They do wonders for my hair, skin and nails! I can't be without them and I have a few back-ups.

Nature's Bounty Echinacea 1000 mg - I bought this when I was sick last month for awhile and it helped my cold from getting worse. My friend and also my doctor recommended it to me. 

Miscellaneous
BIC Soleil Bella Razors - I enjoyed using these razors and they have flexible blades! I usually use just the BIC Soleil razors that are not the Bella. They are very inexpensive and I bought mine at Wal-Mart. BIC Soleil in general is my go-to brand for razors and I will buy the Bella again in the near future!

100% Pure Cotton Rounds - There are 100 cotton rounds in the package and I always feel as though I go through them quickly. I love them and I buy them at Wal-Mart. These are a staple for me!

L'Oreal Paris Color Riche Nail Polish in 601 French Riviera - I love this colour but there is not a lot of product inside! The bottle is small and I need at least 2-3 coats when using this shade. Needless to say the bottle goes very quickly. I am not sure if this was limited edition or not.

Samples
Atelier Cologne in Mandarine Glaciale - It is a unisex scent but I feel as though it is very masculine smelling. It was nice to try but as most people know, each scent will smell different on every person depending on their body chemistry. This wasn't my favourite on me but I still used up both samples that Sephora sent me. 

Northern Delights Inuit Herbal Tea in Labrador Tea & Arctic Blend - I was actually sent out these two teas by the company but they did not ask me to review them. I wanted to give these a shout out because they have delicious blends and am interested in trying out more flavours! They smell delicious when in the tea bag and are even more delicious to drink. I was very impressed overall and they are a Canadian company.

Until next time,

STAY CLASSY.
