Hey everyone! Let's go through all my empties products for the month of May!
Face
GLAMGLOW Waterburst Hydrated Glow Moisturizer (15 ml) - I picked up the smaller size because I wanted to see if I liked it or not. I applied this in the morning and this is a very light product that reminded me of almost a gel consistency. It is a waterless water cream that is great for people with dry skin. It absorbed quickly into my skin and did not feel heavy at all. I would definitely look into purchasing the full size which retails at Sephora for $66 for 50 ml of product.
Bioré The Original Deep Cleansing Pore Strips (14 count) - These are my favourite nose strips and my brother even uses them. They do a great job at removing unwanted gunk and I recommend looking out for them when they go on sale!
Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye Synchronized Complex II (15 ml) - This is a great eye cream to use and I did go through it pretty quickly. The Sephora link isn’t the exact same name of the eye cream but the eye serum has the name name except that it is a serum. The eye cream online by the brand has a different name but the same packaging and the ingredient lists are slightly different. I did enjoy using it and it made my under eyes very moisturized without drying them out. I originally tried out a sample and liked it so much that I purchased the full size. I have a review on it that you can check out. This is a gel eye cream which has a really light texture.
Bath & Body Works
Gentle Foaming Hand Soap in Bergamot Waters (259 ml) - I really liked the scent of this hand soap and it reminded me exactly of either the Diesel Green or Red scent. It was on the more masculine side. The notes include: fresh bergamot, pristine blue waters and white cedar wood. This claims to include essential oils in the formula.
Body/Feet
Cake Beauty Be Delectable Coconut & Cream Triple Moisture Body Lotion (60 ml) - I actually really liked using this body lotion! It has a thinner consistency but it still did a great job at moisturizing my skin. It smells just like coconuts and it is also made in Canada. Other ingredients include: Shea butter, coconut oil and aloe vera. It is free from: parabens, phthalates, GMOs, mineral oil, petrolatum and triclosan. I enjoyed using it and would purchase the full size.
Dr. Pedicure Foot Exfoliating Mask (1 pair - 35 ml of liquid) - I purchased this from Amazon a few weeks ago and finally got around to trying it out. I started off by soaking my feet for 10 minutes in warm water like the instructions advised to do. I dried off my feet and then put the booties on. The stickers were not very adhesive and barely stayed on. I just put on a pair of socks over the booties which worked great. It doesn’t smell very goos after you cut off the piece of the boot that holds the liquid. I left in on for 1 hour and it is a weird sensation at first but again, follow the directions on the back of the box. Don’t walk around and stay sitting down. The liquid can be quite cold at first but it only lasts a few seconds. The booties fit women sizes 4-12 and men sizes 4-13 apparently. My feet started peeling on the third day a little bit around the toes and then it started peeling more in other areas as the days went on. It is very satisfying to see a brand new layer of smooth skin underneath.
Hair
Inner Core by Taya Hair Strong Strengthening Mist (60 ml) - This lasted me quite a long time and I would tend to use this product on my wet hair after getting out of the shower. It smelled nice and I fell like my hair did end up getting a little stronger after using it. I purchased this at the TSC Warehouse Sale | 2018.
Vitamins & Supplements
Jamieson Energy Spray B12 in Natural Raspberry (500 mcg - 58 ml) - I got this off Amazon and I wanted to try a form of B12 that wasn’t in pill/capsule form. I really liked using this as it was easy and I just sprayed twice on my tongue each morning. I moved this product into my washroom because it almost got onto the carpet and it is red in colour which would be hard to get out. It lasted me a few months which was longer than expected and I thought that it did a great job! I would definitely repurchase.
Coffee & Tea
Starbucks Caffe Verona Ground Coffee (340 g) - I finally got around to finishing this bag of delicious dark roast coffee and I really enjoyed it! It says that it is roasty sweet and dark cocoa. This is 100% arabica coffee and this bag came ground which is perfect to use in my coffee press. What I like about Starbucks is that they are proud partners in ethical coffee sourcing.
Miscellaneous
Anti-Reflective Lens Cleaner from Loblaws Optical (30 ml) - This was very inexpensive and I just picked it up at the optical centre at my local grocery store. It got the job done and I definitely would repurchase it!
Promo/Samples - Face/Body
Skinician Purifying Day Moisturizer (1.5 ml) - This is recommended for combination, oily and break out prone skin. I used it in the morning and I really enjoyed using it! It wasn’t oily, quickly absorbed into my skin, it didn’t have a noticeable scent and I didn’t break out from it. The first ingredient is water which is always a good sign and it is made in the UK. I got a sample of this in the mail and I would use it again!
LaNeige Water Bank Moisture Cream (2 ml x 2) - I have used this in the past and I really enjoy using it whether it be during the day or at night. It smells great and one packet lasted me about 3 uses. It is definitely a moisturizing cream that absorbs quickly into the skin without feeling greasy. It is pretty lightweight on the skin and I enjoy using this cream! I definitely recommend it and I have enjoyed every single product that I have ever purchased/used from this brand.
Nivea Oil Infused Lotion Cherry Blossom & Jojoba Oil (4 ml) - I have gone through the larger size and really like this lotion! It smells great and it absorbs into the skin quickly. It leaves my body moisturized and I like that the larger size come with a pump. It is affordable and you can purchase it al Walmart.
Teeth
Crest Gum Detoxify Deep Clean Toothpaste (20 ml) - Honestly, I didn’t find anything special about this toothpaste and it worked just like any other toothpaste. It wasn’t bad and it wasn’t super memorable either.
Until next time,
STAY CLASSY
