I have managed to go through ALOT of products the last 4 months - this is because I typically open too many products at once, as I get sent alot of things and I end up having to try out different products while already on a current skincare or hair care routine. In this post, I will be telling you what there is in this round of empties, as well as whether or not I would be repurchasing the product and also include a short review.

Review

No

I used to love this product, however
the perks of being a beauty blogger is you get sent new products you would
have never been exposed to. Needless to say, because of the price of this
product, I have found something much more budget friendly that serves the
same purpose.

|
Got2be – Rockin
It Dry Shampoo
|
No
|
While I loved this product and it
effectively did its job, I found the smell a bit too overwhelming and there
are a lot of dry shampoos on the market right now so I’ll be giving the
others a try.
|
Aveda – Thickening
Tonic
|
Yes
|
I loved this product and I am now on
my second bottle. Having very fine hair, before blow drying I would spritz
this on the roots and it would make me look less flat and boring. Love it! It
doesn’t leave a gritty or sticky residue either.
|
Co Lab – Volume
Extreme Dry Shampoo
|
Yes
|
I like co-lab products, especially the
volume extreme line, being able to pick this up at winners, I can usually get
a big bottle for cheap. I typically take this on vacation or the gym with me.
|
Nivea – In-Shower
Body Lotion
|
No
|
This product took about 1-2 weeks of
using before I saw any type of result. I love the Jergens one better, I saw
results after the first shower, and definitely after the second.
|
Yes
|
I was introduced to this by a coworker
who has told me to use this as I have some eczema on my hands and my previous
bath & body shower gel was giving me itchy skin (even though it said it
contained shea). What I found was that it contained a lot of alcohol, which
is why it was drying out my skin. The Body Shop shower gels do not, so it’s
been my savior this winter season.
|
|
No
|
Unfortunately, I don’t think I’m used
to the oil base formula yet. It makes me feel like there’s a layer of oil
left, or some sort of residue. The scent also was boring, not to my liking.
Have to pass.

|
Kiehls – Ultimate
Strength Hand Salve
|
No
|
While this product was good and I did
go through 2 bottles, I have found others that have taken its place – First Aid
Beauty J
|
The Face Shop – Hydro Gel Mask
Sheet Vita B
|
No
|
Didn’t find that it had much result
and I almost found it a bit drying? Like there wasn’t enough product on it.
|
Origins – Never
a Dull Moment
|
No
|
NO! I really disliked this product! It
was like squeezing fruit roll-up paste out of the tube and trying to get it
to work. It ended up usually falling down the drain or tub. Not worth the hassle
|
Korres – Primer
|
No
|
Didn’t do anything for me. Nope.
|
Baby Lips – Lip Balm
|
Yes
|
LOVE IT – everytime I know someone who
goes to Asia, I ask them to bring me back some. It’s cheap there and its way
better than the American formula.
|
Living Proof – amp
instant texture volumizer
|
No
|
Didn’t like that it was in a putty
formula that I have to dip my fingers into. Wasn’t sanitary and didn’t have
enough results to justify it.
|
L’occitane – Ultra
Shea Rich Body Cream
|
No
|
The scent was a bit too strong for me,
and for such an expensive product I expected more. I prefer the almond oil
from L’occitane.
|
Indie Lee – Blemish
Stick
|
Yes
|
I’ve gone through two of these, and my
coworker has probably gone through 5. This stuff works. Love it!
|
Bumble and Bumble – Thickening Hairspray
|
No
|
The price didn’t justify the product
as I didn’t see results. It also left a sticky residue and almost weighed my
hair down.
|
Kat Von D – Tattoo Liner (Trooper)
|
Yes
|
Love this product. Will continue to
repurchase. Gives you a beautiful wing that is effortless!
|
Graydon Clinical Luxury – Before
Bed Spray
|
Yes
|
I have really been into aromatherapy
lately and I spritz this before I go to bed every night. It helps to
de-stress and I would definitely repurchase this.
|
Have you given any of these products a try before? Would love to hear your thoughts!
Until next time, XO - M.
