Hello readers,
Another month gone by means another pile of empties. Lots of stuff to go through this month so let's get started.
Face
I finished up lots of face products this month. The first was L'oreal Go Clean 360 Deep Facial Cleanser. I really liked this face wash. It was gentle on my skin and seemed to help keep occasional breakouts under control. What I really love was that it came with a little silicone 'scrublet' which I can keep on using even after the bottle is done. I would buy this again. I also finished a jar of Clinique Moisture Surge Extended Thirst relief moisturizer. This has become my go to daytime facial moisturizer. It's really hydrating but doesn't leave my skin shiny. I've already purchased a replacement. Finally I finished up a tube of Clinique Acne Solutions Oil-Control Cleansing Mask. This mask was... alright. I think I prefer The Body Shop's Tea Tree clay mask though. It's also cheaper so I'll likely not purchase the Clinique one in the future.
Nails
This month I finished up another small bottle of Emerald&Ash cuticle oil. This was one of the bottles I received for review a few months back. I really like these cuticle oils and have already purchased a big 10ml bottle to keep me going. E&A also released a bunch of new scent combos recently and I may need to stock up on some of the new ones as well.
Bath & Body
You're probably used to seeing the Bath Retreat energizing epsom salts in my empties by now. I love them. They smell delicious. There are already two more bags in my bathroom. I also finished a couple products I received in a Sweet Delights Divalicious sample box. The first was a Champagne Shower Gel from Kootenay Bath Products. It smelled really yummy but the gel was quite thick and difficult to get out of the bottle. For that reason I won't be purchasing it in full size. I also finished an Egyptian Jasmine goat milk bar soap from Polka Goat Farm. I used this as shaving lather and it did lather up quite nicely. The scent was subtle but nice. Overall I'm just not a bar soap kind of person so I won't be purchasing this again. Finally I finished a Hand And Cuticle Stick from Julep. The reason I have this in the "bath & body" section is that I actually used this on my feet. I found that the thicker formula did a better job of sticking to and penetrating the skin on the soles of my feet. I was really pleased with how much softer they were after prolonged use. I do find this item overpriced though (as I find with pretty much all of Julep's products). However, if it goes on sale for a decent price I would definitely consider purchasing another.
Hair
Last up is hair products. I finished a lot of Herbal Essences Naked Shampoo and Conditioner this month. This stuff smells delicious, keeps my hair moisturized but not greasy and is paraben and colorant free. It has become a staple in my house. I also finished a bottle of Pantene Curl Protection conditioner. I find that if I use curly hair products too often they end up building up in my hair. A bottle tossed into the mix every so often is ok. I would probably buy a different Pantene variant in the future though. Last up is a bottle of Herbal Essences Set Me Up hairspray. I use this stuff pretty much every day to tame frizzies. I'm using the Naked version of the hairspray right now, but sometimes I have a hard time finding it. This one is the back up for when that happens.
Happy polishing,
- Michelle
