december empties





Happy New Year!!!

I am back with an empties post for December.

1. Organic Surge Daily Care Face Wash 
This face wash dried out my skin so much that after only using it twice I had to stop putting it on my skin and ended up using it up as a shower gel. I don't think the claim for all skin types is accurate! I have normal - dry skin so it may work better for oily skin types.
Cruelty-Free: Yes
Repurchase: No 

2. Cowshed Baby Cow Organics Frothy Hair and Body Wash 
This body was worked okay but it was nothing special. I hated the scent of this body wash and so won't be repurchasing.
Cruelty-Free: Yes
Repurchase: No 

3. Soap & Glory Pulp Fiction Foamy Fruity Body Scrub 
I am so glad to be done with this body scrub. I don't like it at all, I don't like the scent. the frothiness, the texture. I prefer exfoliants that leave an oily residue on the skin, if however you don't like that then this could be for you!
Cruelty-Free: Yes
Repurchase: No 

4. Dr Bronner's Magic Organic Lavender Coconut Lotion 
I liked the light scent of this body lotion. I found it to be moisturizing but it did leave a bit of oilness on the skin that eventually went away. I like that the product is low toxin. I'm keen to try some of the other scents from this range.
Cruelty-Free: Yes
Repurchase: Yes 

5. Hugo Boss Deep Red Perfume
This is a fragrance I have been using since my teenage years so I am sad to see it go. I won't be repurchasing because I'm switching over to low toxin products.
Cruelty-Free: No
Repurchase: No 

6. No 7 Beautiful Skin Radiance Exfoliator 
I did like this face scrub. I have used the St Ives scrub in the past and found that too harsh and drying for my skin type, this scrub I find is more gentle and works better for me. However it is still grainy enough to remove dead skin cells and leaves my skin leaving soft and smooth. The only reason I won't be repurchasing is because I'm moving towards low toxin products. 
Cruelty-Free: No
Repurchase: No 

7. Elf Candy Shop Lip Gloss in Mocha Maniac
This lip gloss was okay. I did like the design on the packaging and thought it was cute, however I really don't like products in tubs because I think it's not as hygienic. I still have a few other flavours to finish.
Cruelty-Free: Yes
Repurchase: No 

8. Nails Inc 3 Phase Nail Oil
I like the packaging of this nail oil and the fact that it came in a roller ball tube, making it easy to apply the product. I'm not sure it actually did much because I didn't see much of a difference.
Cruelty-Free: Yes
Repurchase: No 

Now for the count...

  4. Soap and Glory products are normally so good, this one seems to be a bit of a disappointment.
