It’s that time again! Here are my most recent empties and some mini reviews!
Bodycare
Rituals The Ritual of Sakura foaming shower gel
This is my second bottle of this and won’t be the last! It smells amazing and feels so luxurious! It also lasts longer than expected and makes my skin feel so smooth. Will repurchase when I finish a few other shower gels! See my last review here!
Soap and Glory The Righteous Butter
An old favourite, there is always at least one Soap and Glory product in my empties I feel like! This is a rich, nourishing body moisturiser and I already have a backup!
Soap and Glory Hand Food
This is a lovely rich hand cream and the Original Pink scent is great! I find it a little greasy sometimes if I accidentally squeeze too much but that would be my only criticism! Already using a backup!
These were gifted to me years ago but I didn’t take everything with me to Canada so I finished this when I got home! I love Nivea hand creams and this is lightweight, sinks in quickly, smells fresh and keeps my hands hydrated. They are by far my favourite brand for hand cream but I haven’t repurchased just year as I have a few Soap and Glory ones I am going through at the minute!
Skincare
Nivea Lotion
Is anyone sick of me talking about this yet? My absolute favourite for a first cleanse! This is creamy so it doesn’t drag your skin when you use a cotton pad and it gets off the majority of my makeup ready for my second cleanse with an oil or balm. Already have a backup but concentrating on my rather large stash of cleansers at the minute so will open at a later date!
Pixi Glow Mud Cleanser
One of my favourite morning cleansers! It’s got 5% glycolic acid so is very gently exfoliating and prepares my skin wonderfully for the rest of my routine. It never feels tight or dry after use and I already have a backup!
Omorovicza Thermal Cleansing Balm
Another one of my favourite cleansers this time PM! This is a very luxurious balm that gets every last bit of makeup of why hydrating my skin and working to make it clearer. I will repurchase in the future! All three of these cleansers are talked about in more detail here!
Omorovicza Queen of Hungary mist
This has quite possibly got the have the best mist action of any facial mist I have owned! It's super fine and feels very refreshing but I prefer this as a makeup pick me up as opposed to a skincare step! I wouldn’t go out of my way to repurchase as there are other mists I prefer but I always enjoy using this up!
Skin Laundry Renewing Eye Cream
You guessed it, another fave haha! Creamy but lightweight and hydrating enough for both day and night I love this! It’s getting harder to find though – Cult Beauty seem to be discontinuing all my favourite brands, anyone else? I will repurchase in the future but I already have a couple of other eye creams on the go at the minute! See full review here!
Zitsticka
I usually forget about these things and while I did enjoy it these are way too expensive for me to repurchase for one off use!
Aurelia Cell Revitalise Night Moisturiser
A really nice hydrating overnight moisturiser, not one I love enough to repurchase though!
Glow Recipe Avocado Melt Sleeping Mask
Another nice overnight moisturiser but again nothing special and I won’t be repurchasing
Peter Thomas Roth Hungarian Thermal Water Minera Ric Atomic Heat mask
This was a really fun mask to use! I love how it felt when it heated up and my skin always felt so soft after using! Would repurchase!
Sunday Riley Good Genes
I don’t really get the hype over this product but this was a small sample and I probably should have used it more regularly. There are lots of other exfoliating porducts I get much better results from so not a repurchase for me!
Dermalogica Rapid Reveal Peel x3*
This made my skin feel so soft and look so glowy after use! It tingled slightly but didn’t leave my skin red even though it’s exfoliating! Would repurchase if coming up to an event!
Haircare
Schwarzkopf Got2Be Fresh it Up Texturising Dry Shampoo
I may have found a new favourite budget dry shampoo range! This one and its blue counterpart are great! Instantly make my hair less greasy but not dull either and give it some movement too! It was only about £2 aswell! Already have a spare of the blue!
Bumble and Bumble Bb Hairdresser’s Invisible Oil Primer
Nice heat protectant but I don t love it, have used a few minis now but not one I would repurchase!
OUAI Scalp and Body Scrub
Loved this! As always with OUAI products the scent is incredible! This felt invigorating on my scalp and I will repurchase in the future!
Makeup
Buxom Full On Lip Cream in White Russian
Buxom are one of my favourite lip gloss brands! I loved this, it keeps my lips looking healthy but not too glossy and though its. A little sticky but not in a bad way! Will repurchase when I finish my 487 other lip products!
Fresh Sugar lip treatment
Way too melty and not hydrating enough for me! I have a few more shades of these to get through but I won’t be repurchasing!
Bite Beauty Agave lip balm
Loved this, keeps my lips hydrated for ages, already have a backup and will repurchase in the future!
Dior Addict Lip Maximiser
Another really nice gloss but prefer the Buxom so won’t be repurchasing!
Miscellaneous
Advanced Nutrition Programme Skin Accumax
I don’t want to say too much about these yet as I haven’t finished the recommended 2 a day for 14 weeks just yet – let me know if you would be interested in reading a review on them when I have been taking them for longer though! First impressions are OK and I have repurchased another box!
Skin Owl Beauty Steam
This was leftover from a GWP years ago and I finally used it. I’m not one for steaming and I had a bit of a cold when I used this so got more benefits for my sinuses than my skin I think! Wouldn’t repurchase!
Wow, well done if you got to the end of that! Let me know if you see any of your favourites here or anything you’d like to try!

ReplyDeleteCharlotte / Charlotte's Picks
its great isnt it! xx
DeleteI should go trough my things too, I'm pretty sure some of them are almost ready to throw. My biggest downfall are empty mascaras as I love to save different brushes since each of them can create different look.
