  Here are my latest empties with some mini reviews included.  Shiseido Facial Cotton - Another one done! Already repurchased. My favourite cotton pads, period. As a side note, I swear these used to be $11 and now they are $17.50 Canadian! Talk about inflation! I do my best to only buy them on sale. Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion - What was left in this tube was hardened so I am throwing it out. Already well on my way through another tube. This is the only eyeshadow primer that I trust these days.  Beautyblender - I keep trying other sponges to save a buck but the ..read more

Let's dive into it!  Nivea Pure & Natural Body Lotion (x2) - Best drugstore body lotion on the market as far as I am concerned. Note I said drugstore haha.  KVD Beauty Tattoo Liner Waterproof Liquid Liner in Trooper Black - This is my second to favourite black liquid liner ever behind Stila's version. I also have it in the colour Mad Max Brown and it is equally wonderful. Would repurchase for sure.  Diorshow Maximizer 3D Triple Volume Plumping Lash Primer - This isn't a bad product and I would repurchase but I don't feel it lives up to it's hype. It can help a so so or ..read more

A long awaited empties post finally! I have been working on this one for longer than I care to mention. I have a pile of Winter empties piling up so this one can't wait much longer. Let's jump right into it!  Clinique Redness Solutions Daily Relief Cream -  I purchased this when my roseacea started getting quite bad. It offerred some temporary relief but overall I didn't feel like it did as much as it should have. I have since found much better products that help me more than this. I did purchase another one of these jars though before I discovered other things so at some point I ..read more

  EOS lip balms (x4) - No idea what scent these are. None of them are finished but I had a reaction to these like so many other people. I keep finding them around the house but I think I've finally rounded them all up. So excited to see them go! I know they aren't finished but I am so done with them it isn't funny so thought they were worth mentioning. Evodia Australia Coconut & Lime Body Wash - I got this from Marshalls or Winners. It was pretty good and last me for ages. Loved the smell. Might not have been the most moisturizing body wash of all time, but it was alright. I h ..read more

 It's been eternity since I did an empties post and the crap is really piling up! Enough is enough. I have so much I need to break it into at least 3 parts. Let's get to it.  Nivea Pure & Natural Body Milk - This is a staple in my empties posts. For quick hand cream or anywhere really Lotion, this is the best at the drug store as far as I am concerned in terms of quantity you get, decent quality and price point. Already repurchased like 3.... Aveeno Skin Relief Moisturizing Lotion in Cooling Menthol - This is the best lotion from the Aveeno line in my opinion. I've even seen it ..read more

Londontown Foot Balm - Mini Review
My Makeup Issues

I got this on a whim from Fabfitfun. I can't recall what I paid for it but it was a very decent price. It's a very thick and rich cream and it does a pretty decent job of moisturizing dry feet. One of the better foot balms I've ever used. I will not repurchase this though for one reason - I can't stand the smell of it. The scent of eucalyptus is overpowering in this balm and it is the scent I dislike the most in the world. So if you like the smell of eucalyptus or don't mind it, this may be the foot balm for you.  ..read more

I know it isn't spring anymore, but better late than never right? I already have a bunch of summer empties piling up too so it's high time I get cracking on this blog.  Nivea Body Milk Pure & Natural x2 - This is my favourite bathroom/kitchen hand cream. Already repurchased.  Bath & Body Works Fresh Sparkling Snow Gentle Foaming Hand Soap - I've almost finished my BBW stash and I don't plan to replace it as their scents no longer do it for me. This one was not my favourite but the packaging sure was cute. Bumble and Bumble Hairdresser's Invisible Oil Conditioner - best co ..read more

  I started this blog 2 months ago and I'm finally finishing it now. Sad. Truth be told, like many of you I'm sure, you aren't using a lot of products these days. No where to go, little to do. But that's ok, as long as we are safe and healthy,  that's all that counts! Drunk Elephant B-Hydra Intensive Hydration Serum (regular sized and a travel mini) - I really like this Serum mixed with Drunk Elephant's C-Firma VitaminC Day Serum. I think this was my second or third bottle. Makes my skin feel so soft and happy.  Bumble and Bumble Hairdresser's Invisible Oil Conditioner - I ..read more

Summer 2020 Empties

So it's mid-October and I am doing a Summer Empties post? Yep, it's true. It's been that kind of year. I'm stacking up my September and October empties already so it's long overdue to wrap up Summer 2020. I'm sure many of you have been in the same boat as me - wearing little to no makeup the past few months. I'm still working from home, have my video off for 95% of my work meetings and when I go out I have a mask on. Blush and lipstick have been nearly non-entities in my life the last several months. Sad. I miss them. I have still been ordering from Sephora this year, but mostly skin and hai ..read more
