Empties from January to February

 I am so late with empties, again. Which is not a bad thing. I'm not obsessing over my skin stuff right now. But I am happy to see I am using up products.


Face


Elizabeth Arden Cleansing Oil

Great cleansing oil, rinses clean! I am going to repurchase. Currently I am using Medik8 Cleansing Oil and it is great as well. Not sure which one I like more - I think I like both equally. Medik8 is not quite as slippy as Elizabeth Arden, maybe it doesn't rinse quite as clean, but it doesn't have the fragrance (smells like oil, grassy oil?).


Sunday Riley C.E.O. 15% Vitamin C Brightening Serum Mini

I have to say, this lotion serum is so good. My skin looked great, brightened and felt soft the whole time I was using it, the mini 8 ml lasted probably 3-4 weeks when used in the morning. It was great under makeup as well, never pilling.

I would like to repurchase but it's expensive. And who knows if it'll have the same effect again? 


The Ordinary Niacinamide 10%+Zinc 1% Serum

So old bottle, I just used the rest on my body.


The Ordinary Pycnogenol 5% Serum

I like pycnogenol. I think it helps with acne. I want to repurchase, but I also want to clean up my stash first.


Differin Adapalene Gel

Good stuff, even when old and probably expired (going by the date printed on the tube). I just asked for a prescription for Differin as well from doctor so I wouldn't have to keep ordering from iherb - it's cheaper when I buy locally. 


Body

Aco Intimate Cleansing Wash

Good, gentle, I've repurchased.


Rexona Maximum Protection Sport Strength Antiperspirant x3

Only antiperspirant that works for me. I just went to doctor because of sweating/acne, and got prescribed topical glycopyrronium. Hmm, been using it only for a week but it does have quite strong side effects. Dry mouth, dry eyes. 


CCS Cracked Heel Repair 

I like this, good for feet and whole body, especially legs and arms (for bumps and rough skin). 


Pure&Care Exfoliating Foot Mask

Very good foot mask! I will repurchase. Gentle and effective. Especially when paired with SVR Xerial 50.


Dermosil Panthenol Cream 5%

I used this as a hand cream, it was good and light. I could repurchase.

Hair

Vichy Dercos Anti-dandruff shampoo

Absolutely great shampoo. Definitely recommend for oily scalp. I've repurchased.
