May Beauty Empties

If you follow me on Instagram you've been seeing my empties as I use them, but what were my thoughts on these products? Would I repurchase them? Find out in this monthly collaboration of all my empties!


1. OZ Naturals Ocean Mineral Facial Cleanser: This was a very gentle cleanser with low suds, no noticeable scent, but also didn't remove makeup and very slightly dried my skin.

2.Retseliney Vitamin C Cleanser: This was very nice and didn't dry out my skin at all, but the pH was higher than my skin likes.

3. Retseliney Advanced Exfoliant Cream: This was very moisturizing and made my skin super smooth, I used it on my whole body lol.

4. Feria Midnight Collection Hair Color in Violet Soft Black: This was the perfect color for me, and it lasted much longer than other colors I usually use.

5. Splat Long Lasting Hair Color in Lusty Lavender: Terrible! This bled so bad, it was a horrible nightmare. Every time I washed my hair it stained everything, including my skin.

6. Silk bubble bath in Warm Vanilla Sugar: this was a Dollar Tree find that smelled divine and made a nice amount of bubbles.

7. Herbal Essences Naked Cleansing Conditioner: This was pretty nice, surprisingly comparable to Wen for only $5! I will repurchase because I can also use it on Bugs hair.

8. Rembrandt deeply white + peroxide mouthwash: This definitely cleaned my mouth, but did not help whiten and the foaming from the peroxide was just too much twice a day. Back to regular mouthwash for me!

9.Watkins hand soap in grapefruit: yummy! I loved this soap and will probably repurchase when I run out of my Dial stash.

10. Korean charcoal toothpaste: unsure of the brand but this was ok. I thought it would help brighten and repair my teeth but it really didn't.

11. Foxbrim Orange Blossom Water Toner: this had a very sour scent that was unappealing and a bit too high of a ph to use on my face but I in joyed how it softened my skin if I put it in the bath.

12. Dr Bronners lavender castile soap: good for cleaning the house, and that's about it...

13. Banila Co Clean It Zero: I love this cleansing balm for removing makeup! I follow with a regular soapy cleanser, but this is a good for removing the extra grime on my face.

14. ClariSea sea salt solutions deep pore detox activated charcoal exfoliating mask: love this powder! I add it to a face wash to give my skin an extra deep cleaning!

15. Daydream Effector Allday with yam deep waterful effector: I got this from Kcutie.com and loved it! It was super moisturizing but wasn't greasy or oily, because it was a super thick serum. I used it day and night when my face was dry, and just at night when my face was oily.

16. Nivea touch of happiness body wash: I love the light orange scent this has, but even more so how moisturizing this is. I think this will always be my favorite body wash.

17. Relief epsom salt from The Dollar Tree: This was great in the bath, I think it really helps my back. For $1 I'll definitely buy more.

18. Vidal Sassoon London Luxe Deep Velvet Violet hair color: I forget who recommended this to me for a nice purple shade but so far I love it! My hair is super soft and shiny.

19. Missha Time Revolution Night Repair Ampoule: This is like a holy grail maintenance skincare product for me. It makes my skin soft, smooth, and bright. I hope I can afford to purchase more soon!

20. Shara Shara Time Capture Lifting Serum: I love this serum so much! It has dramatically reduced the deep lines in my neck. I got mine from kcutie.com and hope to pick up a new one soon!

21. True Skin Care Microdermabrasion Facial Scrub: This was ok, not as abrasive as I expected. It seemed to smooth my skin a bit but it didn't lift away much.

22. Proraso Shaving Cream from a past Target Beauty Box for Men: This was too drying and stinky for the hubby, he hated it on his face! I found it to be super drying, but used it up on my pits. So glad it's gone!

23. Udderly Smooth Body Cream: This was ok, but greasier than I like. The whole family used this for our feet, and I let Bug have free rein with this one to get it gone quicker.

24. TonyMoly Brightening Peeling Gel: This was nice, it removed dead skin and really brightened my face, I just wish there had been a little more.

25. Pilaten Blackhead Pore Strip: This is a charcoal peel off pack that I love for pulling gunk out of the pores on my whole face. This one wasn't as good as they usually are those, I think it was old.

26. OZ Naturals Solar Shield Sunscreen spf30: Nice formula but the bottle broke. I put the rest in a jar and now my son loves to use it because it's more fun out of a fancy jar.

27. Secret Outlast Completely Clean Antiperspirant Deodorant: This works nice but I feel like the clinical protection kept me drier in this warm weather.

28. Banila Co Clean It Zero Cleansing Balm: This is the last of the samples I purchased. I thought this was an acceptable replacement for the Sum37 cleansing balm but with further use I've ended up feeling like this doesn't leave my face as clean. I double cleanse, but I've found if I use this too many nights in a row I break out a little.

29. EyeLuvMe Lashes Amarah false lashes: These are my favorite everyday lashes because they're not a full strip but they add a nice amount of volume with a teeny bit of length. Glad I have a few backups!
