Empties: July 2014

I actually emptied more products last month, including over a dozen of different sheet masks, but I just never save that type of packaging. Here’s what I’m tossing today!

Jason Restorative Biotin Shampoo – This is actually one of my favorite drugstore shampoos. It’s gentle, and foams well despite having a sulfate-free formula; and it contains Biotin which promotes healthy hair and scalp! This is one of my most repurchased essentials.

Naobay Body Radiance Lotion – A very pleasant body lotion, I’d say the formula is on par with my faces from L’Occitane.

Alvera Aloe & Almonds All natural Deodorant – Love this deodorant, and I lost count how many times I purchased it. This is another one of my daily essentials and so far I haven’t found a better one for my skin.

CNP Laboratory Cleansing Perfecta – One of the best non oil-based makeup removers I’ve tried so far, and I discovered this one through Memebox. I still have a bunch of different cleansers so i can’t justify buying another one, but this one is at the top of my list.

MD Moms Baby Silk Daily UV Shield SPF 30 – I find sunscreens for kids are the best to wear to the beach, for me at least. Yes, this one’s the kind that makes the skin look much whiter, but it also makes my skin more reflective, so it doesn’t get nearly as hot in the sun and I feel protected from UV rays. I like trying new sunscreens so I doubt I’d re-purchase this one, but it was definitely good and effective.

H2O+ Hand and Nail Cream – This was a pretty pleasant sample to use, I kept it in my purse and applied when my hands needed moisture. It was good but not great, so I wouldn’t repurchase.

Fabulous Every Day Star Cream – This was one of the first Korean beauty items I bought, and that’s when I fell in love with the quality of their products 🙂 It was fun to use, but I only have one face and I like too many moisturizers, so it’s not going to be purchased.

YonKa Phyto58 – I had this tube for maybe 3 years now, and even though there’s still some product left inside, I think it’s probably time to toss it.

Sonya Dakar Flash Facial – I loved the effect but hated the process! This clear gel makes the dirt and dead skin cells roll off the face, but it has the most annoying fragrance, almost enough to make my eyes water. I won’t be purchasing, because there are other similar products that I like and they don’t smell this bad.

Heart Face Ultra Pore Care Sleeping Pack – Another sample discovered through Memebox! While I like most of the products I get n those boxes, there are some products I just don’t care for, and this sleeping mask is one of them. It doesn’t clog my pores or anything like that, but my skin feels very sticky and gross.
