Product Empties #1

In today's post, I just wanted to share with you my product empties for the month of may. I don't have a lot of empty products, but would like to share with you the ones I do have and my thoughts on them.




BYS Primer Spray

First of all I have a spray on primer from BYS Cosmetics. I love this product, it's the first spray on primer that I've used and I found it works so well on keeping your makeup long lasting. It's also a very inexpensive product, only costing me 10 dollars from Kmart

Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water 

The next empty product is the Garnier Micellar water. This is a regular in my makeup/beauty routine. I use it to to take off my makeup at night, and also in the morning to remove any dirt or impurities that may have built up over night. If you haven't used it yet, I highly recommend it. It's great for sensitive skin as well as having no scent.


Lush Snow Fairy Body Wash

One of my favourite places to purchase bath and shower products from is Lush. I particularly love their Christmas range, so when they had their boxing day sale, I stocked up on my favourite Snow Fairy body wash. This surprisingly has lasted me quite a while, and I have only just finished using the bottle. I can't wait until Christmas time, so I can purchase it again!


Pantene Shampoo and Conditioner

For my hair, I regularly use the Pantene Ultimate 10 shampoo and conditioner. I love how soft and silky my hair feels after use, and have been using this shampoo and conditioner for ever!

Mascara

My final product is mascara by Maybelline. It's the Colossal Big Shot MascaraThis is a great mascara for adding volume and length to your lashes. Also, I love the bright, shiny packaging too, I'm a sucker for great packaging!!

So that was my product empties for the month of May. I hope to make this a regular post, maybe once a month so I will see how I go.

Let me know what your product empties were for the month of may, down below, I would love to know!

Beauty Throwbacks

There are so may awesome beauty products on the market right now and it's so hard to keep up with all the new and amazing things that are out! I have been collection makeup for a while now, and I decided to go through my collection to find products that I used to use all the time. There are a few that you might be able to still find, but for the most part I think these products are either discontinued or were limited editions. Anyway, here is my beauty Throwback!

I have been a fan of Essence for a while and I especially like their limited edition ranges that come out monthly. A while ago, they had a Circus themed range, and I purchased the highlighter powder from the range. It is a gold toned highlighter, that is quite pigmented. It has a lovely shimmer to the skin and it's something I used a lot.


Another product from Essence is a little eyeshadow Quad, with blue shades. I didn't use this a lot, but I like the colours. The eyeshadow is quite pigmented and great quality for the price. 























I have a couple of products from Rimmel. As a long time fan of their products, and one product that was hot a few years back is the Apocalips Lip Laquer. This was a very popular product in the beauty world with the laquer being high shine and very pigmented.


The other product is Vinyl Max Lip gloss and this was another favourite of mine. I was big on pink lip products a few years ago, which is why I have this colour. 


Onto another lip product, this time from Maybelline. This is the colour Sensational Lipstick, in the shade 900 pink pop. It is a very bright, electric pink colour which I did like at the time. I don't think I wore it much, but i bought it because I really liked the colour at the time! It's funny how makeup trends change so quickly!


Eyeshadows for me weren't as much of a must have as they are now. I used to be quite happy just using one particular palette or colour The main one that I would regularly use is one from NYX called the Dusk till Dawn Palette. This palette has very neutral tones and I loved to use it. 


From Revlon, I had one particular bronzer that I would always use. It's in the shade Peach Glow, and this the one I would wear on a daily basis. It added just enough of a bronzy glow to my skin to give the that sunkissed glow.


That was all the products that I dragged out today, I will go through the rest over the next few weeks and see what else I have that I used to love. I might make this a regular thing on here too, just to look back on what makeup I liked and don't use as much anymore.

I hope you enjoyed this post, I had fun looking at all my old makeup stash! Let me know what products you have that you loved and don't use anymore!
