March Empties - Makeup, Skincare, Hair

My empties bin filled up pretty quickly since January, which is great because I have been diligent in sticking with products in hopes of finishing them up.


ELF Makeup Remover wipes - I like to use these more as a blogger staple for removing swatches and eye makeup looks that I do for my photos, I don't love them for my entire face because they aggravate my sensitive skin a little too much to tolerate. BUT for everything else, they are my HG wipes - I usually buy them ten at a time during big sales on their website.

POND's Evening Soothe wipes - LOVE these for everyday use, so gentle on my skin, and super effective in removing every trace of my makeup. And they smell amazing! :)

POND's Luminous Daily Exfoliating Cleanser & POND's Luminous Cream Cleanser - These are my go-to daily cleansing products, they are gentle and effective, and affordable! I actually have a hard time finding these, so if I do see them in store again, I'll buy doubles (or maybe even triples).

Beauty So Clean Cosmetic Sanitizer Mist - I bought this at a beauty show, it's okay, but I think it's super drying on my brushes compared to other brands. I wouldn't buy again.

Tresemme Cashmere Touch Hydrating Serum - I loved this serum for my dry scalp, especially when I had hella long hair, I don't even know if it's meant for scalp or ends, I just found it calmed down my dry scalp a bit more than if I didn't use it. I will repurchase.

Satinique Dual Defend Spray - LOVE! I already bought another bottle. This stuff needs its own review post, but in short it makes my hair looks its best - shiny, healthy, smells great, works as a primer before heat styling, and it's so magical that even men will compliment my hair! :)

Artistry Eye & Lip Makeup Remover - I like this makeup remover more for taking off long wear lip colors, lip liners, all the tough stuff. For face and mascara, it's not strong enough for all the makeup I like to pile on lol!

EMK Wrinkler Relaxing Toner - I really enjoyed this toner for the last three or four years, it was hydrating and toning without the uncomfortable tightening effect. I definitely recommend it - although I won't be repurchasing because I think I found another toner that fits my personal skin needs a bit more.

Embryolisse Lotion Micellaire - I got this last year at The Makeup Show LA, it was nice as a skin refresher, but it wasn't great at removing makeup, so I just didn't find it all too useful for me.

Tatcha Luminous Eye Mask - LOVE! I reviewed it here.

Marc Anthony Beach Spray - Another LOVE! I bought two full size bottles already! I originally got this sample size in an Ipsy bag, and fell in love instantly, then bought backups on Ulta's website - on sale! It adds texture to my naturally straight and silky hair - so I love it for heat styling or even applying to my wet hair to air dry for a neat-messy look ;)

Acure Brightening Facial Scrub - I liked this scrub, I would buy the full size. It was gentle on my skin but felt so good at exfoliating without drying me out.

Banila Co. CC Whitening Base - I got this in a Memebox, Korean cosmetics subscription box, and holymoly it is whitening - so if you have non white skin, you won't like this - unless you want to look ghostly... I didn't even empty this, I'm just throwing it out.

Lavanila Deodorant - LOVE! I already bought a full size three pack on their website!

Body Series Hand Soap - We buy this soap from our Amway shop, love it, a little goes a long way - perfect for my kids, and we buy the big refill bottle so it is very affordable.

GlamGlow Brightmud Eye Treatment - I really liked this eye mask, it felt invigorating! I don't know if I'll buy more because it's pricey and kinda messy to apply. Maybe if I got it on sale.

L'Oreal Butterfly Intenza Mascara (WP) - So, I loved this mascara at first, but I noticed the formula is super drying on my lashes, and I lost lashes during removal, and I think it broke some of my lashes too... so sad... Won't repurchase or recommend.

ELF Wet Gloss Clear Mascara - This is a staple for my everyday makeup, I already have handfuls of backups.

ELF Lip Exfoliator - A MUST HAVE! I recommend this scrub to anyone and everyone, it is affordable and very very good at smoothing out the lip surface and keeping your lips looking healthy and young :)

Essence SuperFine Eye Liner Pen - ugh, I hated this - here's my review.
