March Empties

I have been trying to really stick to my empties challenge and not buy a lot of new products. I have failed a few times but for the most part I am doing well. I am doing better with bath and body products than with makeup. Here are the products I used up in the month of March. I also post products weekly on my Instagram if you would like to follow me there.

First Aid Beauty Cleanser - This cleanser was ok. I did not like it as much as the Purity cleanser from Philosophy. It would not take off a full face of makeup so you will need another cleanser to use as a makeup remover.

The Body Shop Hand Cream - This is my favorite hand cream. I have a full review here. I have already repurchased and will continue to have this in my collection.



Buy Here

Nivea Kiss of Shimmer Lip Balm - I enjoyed this lip balm. It is not my favorite but I would repurchase if I could not get my The Body Shop Lip Butter.


Buy Here

Bath and Body Works Candle - I always have BBW candles in my empties. These are my favorite candles. I love all the scents and would highly recommend. They are also a great price when you combine the 2 for 22 sales with coupons.



Buy Here

Big Sexy Hair Spray and Play - This is my favorite hairspray of all time. I love this entire line of hair products. I have very thick course hair and this keeps it in place. If you have fine hair it may be too much, but I am sure they have a hairspray for you in their line.

Buy Here

Smooth Sexy Hair - This is another favorite product from the Sexy Hair line. I have used this for years and am not often without it. I use this when I straighten my hair. It protects your hair from heat while taking away frizz and adding shine.



Buy Here


Bed Head Moisture Manic Shampoo - I like this shampoo. It smells amazing and leaves my hair feeling clean and soft. I do have another bottle of this, but will try something new when I am finished with it.

Buy Here

Frizz Ease Hair Spray - I have had multiple bottles of this hairspray and I like it. It is a good dupe for the Big Sexy Hairspray so if you would like to save money I would buy this one. I usually pick this up when I cannot get to the salon or Ulta for the Big Sexy brand. I will continue to repurchase.

Buy Here

Kirkland Face Wipes - I purchased the Costco Kirkland brand face wipes after hearing a review on YouTube. The reviews were correct they are amazing. These wipes are large and take off my makeup. They do not dry out my skin or burn my eyes. They are also very affordable. I will keep purchasing these and highly recommend them. These wipes can be purchased at Costco I could not find a link online.

The following products were small samples from Sephora. They can all be purchased there. I am just going to tell whether or not I would repurchase since they were small samples I do not feel I can give a full review.

• OleHenrikson Brightening Moisturizer - This was ok would probably not repurchase.
• Deva Curl Ultra Defining Gel - I really liked this and would love to try a full size.
• Glam Glow Cleanser - I loved this and would like a full size. I just wish it was not so expensive.
• Murad Rapid Collagen Infusion - I liked this and would purchase a full size.
• Murad Time Release Retinol - I liked this and would like to purchase a full size.
• Loccitane Hand Cream - I loved this hand cream and would purchase a full size.
• Fresh Lotus Youth Preserve Eye Cream - I loved this and plan to purchase when I finish some others.
• Peter Thomas Roth Body Lotion - This was ok. I would not purchase a full size.
• Kate Sommerville Exfolikate -  I have purchased a larger size of this. I really like what the product does, but I do not like the smell.

Let me know some products you all have used recently! Also, if you have any products I need to try I love hearing about new products.
