My Empties game is still going strong, as I continue to de-clutter and make some better sense of my beauty stash. Here's what I've managed to finish up recently - mainly skincare and pampering goodies.
I picked this up again when I was in Berlin last September (it's somewhat cheaper over there so I always stock up!) and it's one of my holy grail pampering products. A very rich, super hydrating body oil that smells just incredible. The Lemongrass scent is so uplifting and refreshing - always an absolute pleasure to use. Repurchase? Yes.
Weleda Skin Food
Another holy grail favourite of mine, I've recommended it numerous times and still love it. Skin Food is a crazy thick, all-purpose cream that you can use on any dry bits. I find it very effective for eczema flare-ups, dry feet, elbows, heels, as an intensive hand cream, on cuticles and I sometimes use it as a hydrating face mask as well. Repurchase? Already using another tube!
Pinks Boutique Lemongrass & Mandarin Organic Toner* (travel size)
Just a mini that I've had in my travel bag - really liked using this as it helps to balance my oily/combination skin perfectly and creates a great base for moisturiser. Repurchase? Will consider getting a full size once I've used some other toners up.
Herbfarmacy Skin Rescue Balm
My second jar of this and it lasts ages as a little really does go a long way. Similar to Skin Food in what it can do for the skin (hydrating, repairing, soothing etc) but in a balm form and it's 100% organic. Repurchase? Yes.
Weleda Pomegranate Creamy Body Wash* (travel size)
If you haven't tried out Weleda's Creamy Body Washes before and you have dry skin, I urge you to pick up one of their travel sets that has about 4 or 5 minis in so you can try out the different scents. Love the moisturising SLS-free formula and adore the Pomegranate fragrance. Repurchase? Yes.
Odylique Lemon Butter Hand Smoothie*
This is great for dry hands as it's a very rich and thick formula. I liked to slather this on before bed and I always woke up in the morning with the softest hands. Smells lovely and citrusy too. Repurchase? Will do once I've gotten through some other hand creams.
Conscious Skincare Make Up Melt*
If you're a fan of proper oil cleansers to remove your makeup with, you'll love this. Made from a simple blend of organic cold pressed oils, this did a good job breaking down my makeup, though I did have to use a little extra for removing waterproof mascara. Repurchase? Would consider in the future.
Living Nature Nourishing Body Wash*
Very sad to see this used up - brilliant for sensitive skin as it's a very gentle, SLS-free formula that left my skin feeling clean and soft afterwards. Fresh scent with a hint of spicy Ginger - just lovely! Repurchase? Will do once I've used up some other shower gels.

Haha I don't think I use up enough! I think it always looks like a lot because I've been using some of the products for a while - things like the Dr Hauschka Body Oil and Weleda Skin Food probably lasted me about 3-4 months each x
DeleteWeleda skinfood is great for dry hands. Especially now when it's cold and my hands gets very dry.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely, it's amazing for dry hands! x
DeleteThis reminds me I need to buy another tube of Weleda's Skin Food as I am just running out!
ReplyDeleteIt's so good isn't it? I always have to have at least one backup of it in my stash! x
DeleteYour empties game is definitely still strong! You've used up some great sounding products as always xx
