Product Empties

This is going to be a new series that I want to start. It's going to be a list of products that I've used up (or refuse to use up because I don't like them). I will be doing it every few months when I feel the need to clean everything out. So here we go, my first post because I want to clean up my bathroom. (also I'm slightly concerned that there might be a spider that will climb out as I sift through these bags)


1. Bath and Body Works Signature Vanillas Shower Gel in Coconut - This was a nice summery scent that I really liked. I don't know if I'd purchase it again, though (if I ever got the chance to considering it's been discontinued). I find that my skin has a strange reaction to vanilla while I'm in the shower or right after I've gotten out of the shower. 

2. The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture Cream - I loved this moisturizer. I liked how hydrating it is. I might repurchase after I finish the ones that I have currently. 

3. Tresemme Fresh Start Dry Shampoo - Pretty decent dry shampoo. Not my favorite, but I couldn't complain. 

4. drybar Detox Dry Shampoo - I really liked this one. It's probably one of the best ones that I've used. I don't know if I'd buy it again because of the price (this is a sample that I got in a kit), and I like others just as much that are less expensive. 

5. Bath and Body Works Warm Vanilla Sugar deep cleansing hand soap (x2) - This is one of my favorite fragrances from them and I love the hand soap. Already have repurchased. 

6. The Body Shop Chocomania Sugar Body Scrub - I really liked the smell and the feel of this scrub. I am very particular about my scrubs and this one was pretty good. I don't like to use moisturizing scrubs before I shave, but I would use this one on other days. I'm not sure if I'd repurchase because I have so many other scrubs that I like. 

7. Bed Head Dumb Blonde Reconstructor for Chemically Treated Hair - This was a great conditioner. I think that it smelled a bit like bananas (B-A-N-A-N-A-S). It did keep my highlights looking good, with the help of my purple shampoo. I don't know if I would repurchase because of the price. 

8. Urban Decay Naked Skin Weightless Ultra Definition Liquid Makeup in 1.0 - I really loved this foundation. I liked the feel of it and the fact that it was fairly light. It is also buildable, but not too much or else there is a risk of looking cakey. I will probably repurchase after I've finished with the foundations I have currently. 

9. Bath and Body Works Violet Lily Sky Glowing Body Scrub - I love these scrubs from Bath and Body Works. This isn't my favorite scent, but it was okay. I have another from this collection and I have already repurchased another scent. 

10. Chi Keratin Shampoo - This shampoo really provided good strength to my hair. I'm currently trying to grow it out so this one was great. I'm not sure about repurchasing because of the price. 

11. Philosophy Purity Made Simple One-step Facial Cleansing Cloths - These were really nice. It was nice if I just wanted a refresh during the day. They also were descent at taking off face makeup, not so great at eye makeup. Not sure if I will repurchase. 

12. Neutrogena Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelettes - Out of all the makeup wipes I've ever used, these are the ones I keep going back to. I don't know if they're really the best, but I really like them. They don't sting my eyes and they remove makeup descent. I will probably repurchase. 

13. L'Oreal Eye Makeup Remover - Not the best remover I've used, probably won't repurchase after I've used better ones more recently. 

14. Bath and Body Works Tuscan Melon Foaming Hand Soap - This is one of the new formula, and I really love it. The scent wasn't as strong as I normally like, but it was still pretty good. I have already repurchased other fragrances. 

15. Bath and Body Works Warm Vanilla Sugar Intense Moisture Body Butter - I had had this one quite a long time. These body butters are my favorite and I'm really sad that they've been discontinued. I have quite a few stored up that I bought at the sale last year. 

16. Bath and Body Works Hawaii Passionfruit Kiss Pink Sand Body Scrub - Another one that I loved. 

17. Bath and Body Works Hawaii Passionfruit Kiss Shower Gel - I really liked this seasonal fragrance. I would buy it again if it came back next year. 

18. RevitaLens Multi-Purpose Disinfecting Solution - This is what I use for my contacts. I definitely will repurchase. 

19. Taylor Swift Wonderstruck Body Lotion - I really love this fragrance. I still have the perfume. I don't think that I would repurchase the lotion, though, because I didn't find it particularly moisturizing. 

20. Ole Henriksen Grease Relief Clensing Cloths - I really liked using these to cleanse my face. The scent did irritate my eyes, though, so I don't think I would repurchase them. I might try another kind from the same brand because I've heard some great things about them. 

21. Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua in 12 Beige Rose - This is definitely one of my favorite foundations. I loved the feel of it and it had buildable coverage. I do wish it had a bit heavier coverage, though, but it was great on good-skin days. I would definitely repurchase. 

22. Maybelline Dream Matte Powder in Light - One of my favorite powders. I will repurchase at some point. 

23. Lush Enchanted Eye Cream Sample - Not really my favorite eye cream. I didn't feel like it was that moisturizing. I probably won't be purchasing the full size. 

24. Benefit The Porefessional Sample (x2) - I really loved this primer. I felt like it really did make a difference in the look of my makeup and how long it stayed. I will eventually be purchasing a full size. 

25. Bath and Body Works Mediterranean Lemon Foaming Hand Soap - Loved it. Have other scents already. 

26. Bath and Body Works Warm Vanilla Sugar Creamy Body Wash - I love this body wash. It really is very moisturizing and I wish that they hadn't been discontinued. 

27. Batiste Dry Shampoo in Cool & Crisp Fresh - One of my favorite dry shampoos. I love it and I have already repurchased it in the one for brunettes because my roots have grown out quite a bit. 

28. Olay Fresh Effects S'wipe Out Refreshing Eye Makeup Removal Cloths - I didn't like these. They really irritated my eyes and it made them hard to use. I still used all of them, staying away from my eyes of course. I will not be repurchasing. 

29. Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream in Light (?) - This is a descent BB cream. I've used others that I like better. The color also wasn't that great for me, even with it being the lightest color. Probably won't repurchase. 

30. Maybelline The Falsies Big Eyes Mascara in Waterproof - One of my favorite mascaras. Will repurchase. 

31. Lancome Definicils - Not one of my favorite mascaras. It was a free gift at Sephora. I probably won't be buying the full size. 

32. Rimmel Stay Matte Powder in 011 Creamy Natural - I really like this powder. It's been one of my favorites. I probably will repurchase it. 

33. The Body Shop Rainforest Moisture Hair Butter - I really liked this. It really moisturized my hair and I loved it. I wasn't able to use it from root to tip like the directions say, though. The one time I did that, my hair was so greasy that it looked like I hadn't washed it at all. I'm not sure if I'll repurchase or not. 

Products I haven't finished but I'm getting rid of anyway (it is also safe to say that I won't be repurchasing any of these) : 

1. Revlon Nearly Naked Powder in 010 Fair - I found this too pressed. If that's a thing. It is really hard to use because it won't come off onto my brush. It is also way too dark for me. 

2. Mac Studio Fix Fluid in NC20 and NW15 - Neither of these are the right color for me. They both look very orange/yellow on my skin and they just feel really heavy on my skin. 

3. bareMinerals Original Foundation in Fairly Light - I just can't use this anymore. My skin has changed, and is not as oily as it was when I was in high school (which is when I started using this). I also don't really like the look of it anymore. 

4. Cortex International Give Me Shine Spray Laminate - I've just really had this too long. I also don't really like the look of it anymore because it is too concentrated of a spray and is hard to work with. 

5. Not Your Mother's Way To Grow Leave-In Conditioner - I HATED this product. It made my hair feel really dry and made it really tangled. I normally love this brand but this product was a big miss. 

6. Chi 44 Iron Guard - I've had this way too long and it really can't be good anymore. I also didn't really like it because it just made my hair so wet when I went to use it. 

xoxo, Jennie
