Empties

 Hello,

bellow are my massive August empties. I had to split them between two post since it was too big of a batch to show in just one.

I used up another tube of Neutrogena oil free moisturiser which is my everyday morning lotion under my make-up. I love the light texture which quickly absorbs and leaves no trace just hydrated skin and it doesn't greases me out. I have already purchased two more tubes.

Big tall blue bottle is Pantene hair biology cleansing & reconstructive shampoo. It was nicely creamy and it foamed up nicely. The scent was also very nice, floral and fruity but also fresh (very appropriate for a clean hair scent). I have a greasy skin and scalp so this one really removed all the buildup but didn't strip my hair. I ended up really liking it especially with the matching mask.

In the same light blue tone there is a big pot of Pantene hair biology cleansing  & reconstructive mask. The scent is the same and it is very nice, I wonder if they make a hair spray as well. I know I would get it. The mask was thick and it gripped to my hair while I would shave. I tried to keep it on for as long as possible and my hair were soft and hydrated afterwards. It was not the most hydrating mask that I have tried but it was nice especially for the low price, not bad at all and I would get this duo again.

On top there is Some by Mi Yuja Niacin dark spot correcting stick. I really liked the simplicity of a stick which softly glided over my skin like butter. I fortunately don't have super dark spots anymore but even those spots that I did accumulate and weren't too deep were diminished pretty fast. I liked the effect and the stick format. 

Another brightening product from the Some by Mi brand. This is a mini and it was a gift with purchase Galactomyces pure vitamin C glow serum. I wasn't light as water but it also wasn't sticky, the consistency was right for a pipette application and it was quickly absorbed. I like to incorporate some brightening agents into my routine so I will probably buy a bigger bottle of it and alternate with the stick mentioned above.

Next to it in the pink bottle is The Body Shop vitamin E cooling gel mist. It looks like a aloe vera gel but there is enough liquid in it to spray out. I haven't noticed any cooling and extra hydration. I even took it with me on a vacation and it felt like a regular toner, nothing too special. The scent was non existent but if some of it landed on my lips it had a bitter taste so I tried to avoid getting in on there.

While getting the cooling mist I also got The Body Shop vitamin E gel moisture cream. It was pretty light but I was surprised that it was even too light for my greasy skin. It sinked in quickly but my skin was still pulling and it felt too tight. I used it up in combination with heavier lotions and I will not be buying these two from The Body Shop again.

In the pale tube with a mouse is Biobaza winter magic hand cream which I purchased last year but started using it in the summer time. It had this sweet wintery scent that I liked but the formula wasn't my favorite. It was heavy and did not sink into my skin, it left a greasy film over it and everything I touched was covered with my prints. I used it up as fast as I could and will not be buying it again. 

Last two are Versache Crystal Noir body wash and body lotion tubes which I have receive with my bottle of perfume. I love the scent but in these two the smell is slightly different and slightly less pleasant. Body wash was fine, in the shower it lather and I liked it enough to use it up the body moisturiser was greasy and that is what I really didn't like on top of the odd scent. I was glad that I managed to finish them up and will not get any sets again. I would rather just get the bottle since the scent is the best.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day
