November Empties

Hey y'all.  I know I've been a horribly bad blogger lately.  I have a few reasons for not posting, but that's not what this post is about.  I can't believe that it's already December.  It's cray cray.


No idea why, but it feels like November just flew by.  I have about 3-4 products that are so close to being empty too & I just couldn't finish them up.  That being said, I did finish a lot more this month than I have in the past few months.


Beauty Secrets Pure Acetone - This is the easiest brand for me to get and it's reasonably priced.  I actually had this 16oz. size for a while before finishing it.  I go between it and the 32oz. depending on what is on sale at the time.  Not only do I use this for cleanup, but I sometimes use it to make my own remover mixture.  Though lately, I've just found it easier to buy the pink or blue colored remover at Sally's. 

Bath & Body Works Peach Bellini Hand Soap - The smell of this is pure awesome.  Peach is one of my favorite scents and I was sad when this was finished.  I have one other BBW hand soap that is almost empty and that'll probably be it for me unless I pick some up when they do the semi-annual sale. 

Bath & Body Works Pocketbac - This one was in "I Love Cake Frosting"....yeah was SO not impressed with the scent on this.  It smelled great in the bottle, but not on skin. 

Benefit Porefessional - I have this tiny sample & decided to give it a try recently.  Not sure why, but after a few uses I had to stop.  It's still pretty full, but I started noticing red spots all over my face.  I like how it worked the few times I tried it, but not enough to keep dealing with what looked like a rash.  So it's getting tossed.

Simple Cleansing Wipes - I just feel kinda "meh" about these.  I was using them to clean the oil off of my face before applying makeup, but I don't have that problem anymore.  When I tried using them to clean makeup off at the end of the day I wasn't happy with them.  I know you're not supposed to "avoid direct contact with eyes", but I couldn't even wipe off my brows without the stuff from this migrating into my eyes or making the area burn.  Plus, they dry out pretty fast. 

Bumble & Bumble ColorMinded Styling Balm - If I had purchased this, instead of getting it from a friend, I'd have returned it.  No matter now much, or little, I used it made my hair feel like I hadn't washed any product buildup out of it & just let it get all crunchy.  Smells nice though.

Skindinavia Makeup Finishing Spray - I love using this.  Especially since sometimes trying to use mostly matte makeup can make you look overly powdery.  This helps take that down a little & makes your makeup last.  I don't know what I'd do without it. 

Clairol Flare Hair Color - The color I used is Blaze 6RR.  I purchased this months ago & finally finished up some other stuff so that I could use this.  You can see the result of this color HERE.  I did this color 3 weeks ago & it still looks amazing.  That could be because I've only used shampoo twice since & have used mostly cleansing conditioners. 

L'Oreal Curve It Curl Taming Cream - At first I didn't really care much for this.  So I put it in the cabinet & went back to it after I finished the balm above.  I really started to like this.  Especially on days where I wanted my hair curly & not all crunchy, but not frizzy either.  It's a really light creamy product & I will probably repurchase after I finish other things in my bathroom.

Herbal Essences Body Wash - This is in "Happy Go Lather".  It was part of a 3 pack that I got around this time last year.  OMG it smells great.  It's rose scented, but not too heavy & it didn't linger all day on my skin.  I would probably repurchase, but I like the coconut one better(not by much though).


So that's it.  I'm hoping to get back into the swing of posting and stuff soon.
