Empties: August 2017

Today I want to share the few beauty products that I used up in the month of August.



Briogeo Rosarco Repair Shampoo (236mL)
This is a good shampoo with a pleasant scent, but it wasn't special enough for me to repurchase given the C$30 price.

Fresh Soy Face Cleanser (20mL)
I liked this, but not enough to purchase the full size. I would definitely use it again if it came in a set or the likes.

Green People Scent Free Shampoo + Conditioner (200mL x 2)
I picked up these two bottles the last time I was in the UK and I absolutely adore this shampoo line. I have already repurchased.

Empties: June 2017

Today I want to share the products that I am finished with.



Alterna Caviar Replenishing Moisture Conditioner (40mL)

Andalou 1000 Roses Body Lotion (236mL)
This is still my favorite body lotion, even though I do prefer the previous version before the recent formulation. I have already repurchased.

belif Creaming Cleansing Foam Moist (30mL)
I used this cleanser daily for about a month before the opening twisted off and the cleanser would free flow out of the tube. I don't like it enough to give it another chance.

First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Instant Oatmeal Mask (0.75oz)
While I really enjoyed using this mask on the back of my hands, I don't have any plans to repurchase.

Klorane Shampoo with Oat Milk (200mL)
I tried this shampoo a few years back before it was reformulated. I only repurchased this shampoo as it was on offer and I had a coupon for an additional discount.

Shiseido Aquair Conditioner (600mL)
This conditioner took forever to finish and I am so glad to be done with it.

Empties: April 2017

Today I want to share the beauty products that I finished in the past month.



AmorePacific Treatment Cleansing Foam (30mL)
This cleanser contains blue microbeads (apparently containing vitamin E) that I like to burst in my palms with water before applying to my face. This foaming cleanser left my skin feeling a bit dry during the first week of use, after which it just left my skin feeling soft and clean. The formula is scented and this travel size lasted about 3 months. The full size 120mL retails for C$55 and I don't like it enough to repurchase.

Andalou Naturals 1000 Roses Body Lotion (236mL)
I have finished yet another tube of this body lotion. As mentioned in my February Empties, this body lotion has been reformulated and repackaged. I still adore it and I will definitely repurchase.

First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream (2oz)
This was one of my favorite products of 2016 [Read Here]. I usually use this as my morning facial moisturizer, and also as a body lotion when traveling. I like the simplicity of this product and will be repurchasing another tube soon.

Live Clean Coconut Milk Moisturizing Liquid Hand Soap (500mL)
I have been using the Live Clean hand soaps consistently for two years now and the Coconut Milk scent is my absolute favorite from the brand. I highly recommend this hand soap for a gentle cleanse.

Nexxus Therappe Shampoo and Humectress Conditioner (89mLx2)
I received this duo as bonus items in my September 2016 Topbox. They didn't deliver any memorable results and thus I don't think I would repurchase.
