Empties Since January

Empties from January to February. A bit late but just been so busy and tired! Must keep going through my stash though! Yet another spring cleaning, yada yada, you know...


Face

Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream

This is already a repurchase and I have repurchased the big jar! Good moisturizer, works well with my other products.


Fresh Floral Recovery Calming Mask Mini

Smells nice, like clover flowers to me. Soft and creamy, pleasant to use, but I think this broke me out or otherwise my skin didn't like it.


The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA

Good basic moisturizer, always a repurchase. Quite light and is not enough on its own during winter.


A-Derma Dermalibour+ Repairing Cream

Thick treatment cream/balm. Discontinued, or reformulated, I believe. Would have repurchased! Very calming on irritated skin.


Clinique Moisture Surge Overnight Mask Mini

Very nice nourishing texture, no scent, pleasant, calming. But when used too many nights/days in a row definitely started to clog my pores! Once in a while a great overnight mask. Probably not going to purchase, but if I got another mini for free, I would use it.


Oilixia Australian Kakadu Plum Gummy Facial Cleanser

The consistency is like thick snot. But felt nice on skin and was a decent first cleanser. Not for heavy makeup. Needs another cleanser because it doesn't rinse clean. Smelled of oil. You know, a bit natural grassy, lightly like rosehip seed oil.


Banila Co Clean It Zero Cleansing Balm Purifying Mini

Clean It Zeros are good cleansing balms. Especially for stubborn mascara. But I do prefer cleansing oils.


Innisfree My Real Squeeze Mask Rice

I think Rice is my favorite My Real Squeeze sheet mask! But I believe it has been discontinued. Calming and hydrating.


Dr Ceuracle Royal Vita Propolis Anti-Oxidant Mask

Dr Ceuracle Hyal Reyouth Lifting Mask

The propolis sheet mask was more moisturizing and thicker and stayed wet longer. Hyal Reyouth seemed to dry up on my skin very fast, in 10-15 minutes. Regardless, both were ok hydrating masks, I think my skin did not like Propolis one though. Even though it was more moisturizing. Who knows!


Samples Dr Ceuracle Pro Balance Biotics Clear UP Sun SPF 50+ PA++++

Actually I think my skin really did like this sunscreen. It got remarkably better when I used this sample for a few days. It really leaves a white cast though. Even when very little is used.


Body

Essence The Nail Care Oil

Cheap, ok nail oil. Sweet fragrance, but it's not too strong and doesn't bother me. I have repurchased.


Cerave Hydrating Foaming Oil Cleanser

Not bad cleanser at all. No scent, very liquidy before lathering. Foams ok, nothing amazing. Difficult to get the last bits out of the bottle. Very gentle, actually too gentle I feel, I would like to have something more purifying. But I bet this is very nice for dry skin!


SVR Xerial 10 Lait Corps

Good moisturizer. The bottle last me a bit over 3 years! As you can see I'm not big on moisturizing my body... I would have rebought this one but SVR has reformulated it to include coconut oil I think. So I'll go with some other body moisturizer, maybe Aveeno or Cerave.


Rexona Maximum Protection Antiperspirant Sport Strength x3

Good antiperspirant! Have been using these for a while.


Hair

Nizoral Shampoo (Ketoconazol)

Good for oily, itchy dandruff and scalp. It is a treatment shampoo and I use it every few weeks or when I have flare ups. I also wash my face with Nizoral when I have similar flare ups on my forehead.


Ducray Kertyol PSO Kerato Reducing Shampoo

Actually, a bit too harsh for my hair (not for scalp itself). I felt I lost a lot of hair. But excellent cleanser for my body during summer! Felt very purifying for feet and armpits. Smells bad due to sulfur.
