Hello!
It has been SO long since I've posted one of these! Believe it or not, I kept my "Empties Container" going as I was away from blogging. So I have a ton of trash I am more than ready to get rid of. I'm sure I managed to accidentally throw out some stuff but we will go through what I do have.
As always, I will give you my thoughts on each product (as fast as possible)
Note: Please bare with me on the format on these pictures. I was using a new photo editing app. If you have any good ones, let me know!
Here we go!

Here we go!
Makeup Wipes:
I used 4 packs of wipes. You may remember me raving about the Vitamin E wipes from TJ Maxx. Those have since been replaced with the Simple wipes. I LOVE these wipes. They stay moist through to the very last wipe. I stocked up on these when they were on sale. They remove all of my makeup super fast. They don't irritate my eyes or skin at all. Love!
Face Masks/Wraps:
Another TJ Maxx obsession. Mostly because these come 3 or 4 to a pack and they're cheap! I love them all but the coconut and shea butter is my favorite. I usually clean the shelves when they have these. I haven't re-stocked yet, but I have a TJ Maxx trip coming up soon.
Hair Spray:
If you've followed my blog for a while now you know how much I love this hair spray. It's the only one I've used for YEARS. No matter how I am styling my hair, this holds it in place without weighing it down or making it stiff or crunchy. Love, love, love!
Dry Shampoo and Hair Treatment:
I really have grown to love the Batiste line of dry shampoos. This one was great. It doesn't leave a white cast on your hair like so many others do. It smelled really nice too. My one complaint is that I used maybe 1/2 of the bottle and didn't use it for a while because I was using other dry shampoos I had. I went to use it and the bottle was completely empty! Maybe it was because I got it at TJ Maxx. I recently picked up some other scents from Ulta and so far so good.
The Keratin Oil treatment was really nice. Especially when I had longer hair. Now that my hair is short. I found that it weighed it down and made it really greasy. I don't plan on repurchasing now, but if I grow my hair out I might try it again.
Shower Gel and Sugar Scrub:
Love the scent of Beautiful Day. I have this is body spray too and every time I wear it I get complimented on how good it smells. It's a very fresh, floral, feminine scent.
Tree Hut Sugar Scrub is a huge favorite of mine! I can't believe how much scrub you get for the price. I use this every time I shave to prevent razor bumps and get a really close shave. I have another product I use for razor burn too- I'll talk about it in a minute.
Randoms:
That adorable little thing up top is my beloved shower cap. This might be a weird empty. I mean because it's not like I used it all...but I use these fabric shower caps tend to get musty even if you hang them to dry. They do last a lot longer than the plastic ones though. So I stock up on these babies at TJ Maxx because I throw them out every couple of months.
I always feel weird putting deodorant on here. I don't know why because it's something that we all use. I used to bounce around from scent to scent. On a whim I picked up this Spring Breeze and I really like the scent. It's fresh with a touch of floral and it does it's job. The clear I tend to switch up the scents with. I use that when I'm wearing a sleeveless top.
Face Products:
Let's go LEFT to RIGHT, shall we?
Origins A Perfect World Skin Guardian~ Meh, I wasn't all to impressed with this. It was part of a try me kit I got from Sephora. I don't really remember what this product claims to do but I didn't notice a significant change in my skin.
Acne Gel~ Yep, love it. It clears up my skin like nobody's business. I've since bought a new tube of this but the Clean n Clear formula.
Oil Free Moisturizing Lotion~ This was pretty good. Even though it smelled like sun tan lotion but not in the yummy tropical way. I started using a new moisturizer since and I'm so happy with it, I don't feel the urge to use anything else.
Neutrogena Naturals Face Wash~ I kept this in my guest bathroom and I loved this stuff! I used to repurchase this over and over. Like the moisturizer, I started using something new since and I don't feel the need to change.
Neutrogena Deep Moisture Night Cream~ I wasn't very pleased with this at all. I don't feel like it moisturized my face at all, let alone DEEPLY moisturized it. I finished the jar but I probably would have been better off throwing it away.
Eye Products:
LEFT to RIGHT again.
Yes to Cucumbers Soothing Eye Gel~ No, no, NO!!! Horrible stuff. It balled up when I tried to apply it and it dried really crusty around my eyes. Gross!
Garnier Ulta-Lift~ I didn't notice a difference in my eye area when I used this stuff. I finished the jar and used it everyday. Definitely won't buy it again.
Desert Essence Eye Cream~ I loved this stuff. I got it at TJ Maxx and I looked for it again when I was there and I couldn't find it. If I do come across it again, I will snatch it up!
Primers:
(L to R)
Elf Eyelid Primer~ The handle fell off of this. I have another one but I haven't opened it yet. I like this stuff, it helps my shadows stay in place all day long. For $1 you can't beat it.
Mirabella~ This came in a BoxyCharm. I really liked it at first. Then it started to separate and leaked ALL over my vanity. So I threw it out.
Fix & Perfect~ I've purchased so many of these over the years. I don't have another tube of this but I probably will in the future.
Baby Skin~ Love. It's one of my favorites. I have a brand new tube of this bad boy in my vanity as we speak (or type, or read, whatever! LOL) I squeezed the very last drop out of this thing.
More Randoms:
No Bump~ I use this every time I shave. I tend to get a ton of razor burn after I shave my legs. Unless I use this magical stuff. Just a small amount on a cotton round swiped over my legs and ta-da. Clear skin!
Dewy Setting Spray~
My favorite setting spray of all time. I use 1 or 2 sprays to set my makeup and it gives a nice, natural finish. I already have a bottle I opened as soon as I finished this one.
Mascara Madness:
Covergirl Professional 3-in-1~ Love it. It's cheap and it makes my lashes look AWESOME!
Clump Crusher Extensions~ I am a huge fan of Clump Crusher. I didn't notice any kind of "extension" in this formula. I have the original formula on my shopping list.
Lash Sensational~ Hands down, favorite mascara! I believe I have another tube or even 2 in waiting.
Wonder'Lash~ Hated this! I only used it once or maybe even twice. My lashes looked horrible. It's poo!
Better Than Sex~ Why it's named this, I have no idea. But this came with the Chocolate Bar Palette. Same thing, It's poo!
Lights, Camera, Lashes~ I had a big tube of this and I really liked it. This sample was horrible. Unless you like the 3 lash look. I was a clumpy mess when I used this stuff.
Concealers:
Fit Me~ I use this stuff like it's going out of style. I have at least a tube or 2 of this on hand at all times.
Age Rewind Eraser~ I really like this concealer. I haven't repurchased this but only because I have been using a more salmon tone concealer.
Lash Glue~ Best glue ever. I have a new tube of this I've been using. It holds my lashes in place all day or night. Even with crying at weddings and all.
Brow Gel~ This gel was good but it didn't hold my brows in place all day. I started using the Maybelliene gel and I like that one more so I will probably stick with that one for a while.
Prestige Brow Pencil~ I loved this pencil when I had brown hair. Now that it's red it looks really weird in my brows. This little nub was so dry that it wouldn't even drag against my skin anymore.
Buxom~ I like this gloss a lot. I came across this in a random makeup bag and it's so old I don't dare use it. This is in the shade Rosie. I like the little kits these come in and that's usually how I get them.
Annnnnnd...those are all of my empties! Did you hang in to the end? I hope you enjoyed this post. If you've tried any of these, please let me know what you thought.
Until next time...
Xoxo,
Adela
