April Empties | 2017

Hey everyone! My April Empties are here and I haven't used up as many products as I normally do, but I wanted to share them with you anyway!



Face
Fresh Seaberry Moisturizing Face Oil (5 ml) - This oil came in the Fresh Skincare Power Players Set that I featured in my Sephora Black Friday Haul. This oil contains omegas: 3, 6, 7 & 9 and it made my skin incredibly soft. I really enjoyed using it and I would definitely purchase a larger sized bottle of it. I also featured this product in my March Favourites video. 

Body
The Body Shop Passion Fruit Shower Gel (250 ml) - This is a soap-free cleanser with passion fruit extract. Unfortunately, I can no longer find it on their web site and that saddens me because this is my favourite scent! I featured this product in my post where I reviewed 5 Products from The Body Shop. I also included it in my post talking about my 7 Most Loved Products from The Body Shop.

Nest Fragrances - Indigo Eau De Parfum (5 ml) - I featured this in my Sephora Black Friday Haul and I really did enjoy trying this scent out! It is a warm scent that is rather unique as I can’t think of another scent that smells like it. There was another scent that someone had recommended to test out from Nest Fragrances called Midnight Fleur, but I still ended up liking this scent more! I also featured this scent in My Top 5 Current Favourite Fragrances | Affordable & High End

Johnson’s Baby Oil Gel Shea & Cocoa Butter (6.5 fl oz/192 ml) - I was going through my drawers and I honestly had forgotten that I even had it. This was definitely a rediscovery for me and I’m so glad that I did find it once again. This claims to ‘lock in up to 10 times more moisture’ and it made my skin baby soft. It helped eliminate dryness and I would typically use it right after I got out of the shower. I really liked using this product and I would buy it again in a heart beat! I bought mine in the USA and haven't seen this exact one in Canada.

Bath & Body Works
Georgia Peach Scentportable (6 ml/0.2 fl oz) - This is such a great scent and I also love Peach Bellini. This is great to put in your car during the warmer months! It doesn’t smell overly sweet either.

Hands
Origins Hand Lotion Trio in Bergamot & Ginger (1 fl oz/30 ml) - I absolutely love the scent of this hand lotion and it is great for both men as well as women. The ginger is not overpowering at all. It is great to carry in your purse or to take with you when your travel. I do not like the consistency of the formula because it is too liquid-y and not thick enough at all for my liking. 

Teeth
Exact Dental Floss Picks (36 dental picks) - I have used these in the past and I really enjoy using them! They are mint flavoured and it helps me remove anything that may be stuck in between my teeth! These were on sale for around $1 and I would definitely repurchase them in the future because they did not break or snap on me while using them unlike some other brands that I have tried in the past.

Vitamins
Nature’s Bounty Multivitamin Adult Gummies (75 gummies) - I have been wanting to find some great multivitamins to take daily and these were just ok, but they weren’t my absolute favourite. They claim to help ‘maintain bone and immune function.’ You get three delicious flavours: orange cherry and grape. I took two gummies in the morning with my breakfast. I am still on the hunt for some and if you have any suggestions, please let me know in the comments! 

Nature’s Bounty Cod Liver Oil with Vitamins A & D (100 soft gels) - This claims to help ‘in the absorption and use of calcium and phosphorus.’ You take two of the soft gels daily and the pills are quite large so just a heads up. They aren’t overly fishy smelling like the other ones that I took in the past which I featured in my March Empties. Omega 3’s are great for those of you who suffer from inflammation in your joints and that’s what I was taking them for. I want to try a stronger dosage next time because I felt like these didn’t do much in terms of helping my inflammation.

Food/Drink
Four O’Clock Truffle Mint Tea (1 tea bag/2 g) - This tea was sent to me as a sample and this one was great! I loved the minty taste as it wasn’t overly minty and I drank mine black. It was very flavourful and fragrant therefore, it didn’t require any sugar. I found that there were some chocolate notes and after all, the word ‘truffle’ is in the name of the tea. This would be perfect to have in the fall and winter time. I would definitely purchase a box of this in the future!

Promo/Samples

Face
Philosophy The Microdelivery Exfoliating Facial Wash (6 ml/0.2 fl oz) - I found that it had a gritty texture which I happen to like in a facial wash, and it made my skin feel very clean as well as soft afterwards. It can be used daily and I really enjoyed using it!

Body
Chloe Fleur De Parfum (1.2 ml) - The description reads: ‘A flower blend revealing a tender rose’s heart.’ The original Chloe perfume that I featured in my March Empties, smelled great on my friend but on me, it smelled matronly.

Teeth
Smile Brilliant Whitening Gel (1) & Desensitizing Gel (1) - If you are wondering how my teeth have been looking so white lately, I do owe it all to this wonderful product. Smile Brilliant makes a great system that I looked forward to using each night!

Until next time,

STAY CLASSY
