Empties Since May

Empties and some more "spring cleaning"... Yeah, yeah, better clean slowly than not at all. I think it will be easier to see/finish what I can when the trash is out of the way (and in the future not let anything become trash again - I have difficulties letting things go).


Face


Lumene Invisible Illumination Instant Glow Beauty Serum in Universal Light

4 years old, I think? Used maybe 1/4. It doesn't look expired (maybe starting to separate), but I just will not use it anymore. It is sheer, natural, the shade is good, but it just works best on its own for me. Like nothing underneath... but it's a problem, because no sunscreen seems to agree with it and causes pilling! And it is definitely not a date/night time foundation because it is not covering enough (for me). 


Blistex Sensitive Lip Balm

Nice, basic lip balm, no fragrance. Works well, I've repurchased, it's affordable. Actually I used this one as my bedside lip balm and it lasted me over a year so great value for me, I guess!


Catrice Brow Colorist Semi-Permanent Brow Mascara in Dark Brown

Already threw away last time the lighter version of this brow mascara. This darker one has dried as well, so time to go. Good product, even though not very much hold!


The Body Shop Drops of Youth Essence Lotion

Extremely old! I have no idea. Used about 2/3. I actually do like the scent of this. Very slippy essence. Wonder why I never finished it. Tried using it on my legs as well in the end.


Skin1004 Madagascar Centella-Asiatica 100 Ampoule

Another very old thing! Tried to use this on my body too but bleh, it's useless. I felt it did nothing, maybe even made my face look worse. Not soothing or hydrating at all. Why I still have the bottle? Good question. It's half used.


The Ordinary High Adherence Silicone Primer

At least 6 years old and maybe half used! Not a bad primer at all. Clear on skin. A bit stuffy scent. But I don't think this primer made a huge difference to my makeup or skin, since I just stopped using it. If I really want to use it again, I can always buy a new tube...


Niod Sanskrit Saponins

Just never really got into using this. I don't know if I would like the cleanser now if I had a fresh one. This is from 2017! It smells like yeast and the texture is weird. When I tried using it a long time ago, I thought it was kinda ok but then I just stopped using it?


Fingrs Precision Lash Adhesive

Soo old, dried out! But if I remember right, it was an okay lash glue. (Yes, I used to wear lashes a lot back in time. My favorite glue used to be from Eylure, but suddenly it wasn't available anymore and maybe it started to irritate my eyes anyway. After that I just bought whatever.)


AHC Essential Real Eye Cream For Face Mini

From 2021 Lookfantastic Calendar. Very fragranced, light, easily absorbed cream. I did like it and it didn't seem to irritate my eyes. But I don't think it did very much. But I would use again if I got it for free or very cheap.


Paula's Choice Essential Glow Moisturizer SPF30 Sample

This is a tinted moisturizer. I really do like the shade, not orange or dark at all, very muted and not pink. Felt ok, no scent. Finish ok, not super glowy, more satin. But definitely leaves a white cast if layered or applied generously. Probably no white cast for very fair people. I would be intrigued to try a few more samples.


Body


Maria Ã…kerberg Foaming Wash Gentle

Used first on my face, but felt my skin started to look not so good after a while (2-3 weeks?) so switched to using as a body wash. Very herby smell, nice gentle foam, ok as a body wash. Felt cleansing enough as a face wash as well though and didn't dry skin! But my face improved immediately when I stopped using it!


Xen-Tan Fresh Prep Scrub

Got as a freebie with Feelunique order. Actually a very good gentle scrub. Smells like plastic sugar to me.


Rexona Maximum Protection Antiperspirant Sport Strength x2

My basics!


Bubble T Salted Caramel Bath Fizzies 

I don't have a bath tub, used one fizzie for foot bath and eh, not really a fan... these are very old too so better get rid of them. These came from Lookfantastic Calendar 2019!!


Hair


Head&Shoulders Classic Clean Shampoo

My staple!
