I will be doing these posts from now on simply to keep track of which products I used. By doing so I will know what worked, what I wouldn't buy again etc. If you always use the same brands/products then you have an idea of what you like or dislike. I use many different products and sometimes just don't remember what they did for me, so I decided to document! I also think this is a great way to be proud of yourself because you actually finished a product, or 4 in my case! Plus I love reading other bloggers' finished products posts :)
Ok, on to the empty containers...
C.O. Bigelow Lemon Cream Body Wash
First of all, I must say that if you love the lemon scent you have to try this! Its scent was the main reason I ever purchased this product. Lemon scent used to always remind me of kitchen/household cleaning products but since using this as my body wash, I am getting used to the idea lemony stuff can also be body products :) Will I repurchase this? Well, I think it's a great product. Smells amazing, leaves my skin super soft. It is soap-free. However the price is bit of an issue here. I just feel kind of uncomfortable paying $16 for a body wash. (I bought this particular container with a coupon, and as you can see I used it to the last squeeze :)) I also do use the Lemon body lotion from the same line, yummy is all I have to say!
Sonia Kashuk Remove Eye Make-up Remover
The best eye make-up remover I have used to date. Period. It's everything an eye make-up remover should be. It's oil-free, as in, it is oil-free unlike the many other drugstore eye make-up removers that claim to be oil-free but are oily as heck and leave a nasty oily residue. It's also not irritating at all. I just love it. Will I repurchase? I already did! ;)
I bought this toner a while back when I was looking for a new toner to try. I have always heard really good things about Kiehl's so I chose this. It's a toner. That's really all to it. Will I repurchase? I'm on the fence. It is $26 for 6.0 oz. container. Not too long ago, I have switched all my facial skincare products to Origins and I think my skin has benefited a lot from this decision. I will most likely purchase an Origins toner.
A Perfect World is a great moisturizer. It is paraben-free which I love. However I have found another great Origins moisturizers which I am even happier with so I will stick with that. :)
It was quite obvious that I wouldn't be finishing up any make-up products this month. I have a few eye-shadows, bronzers that I have hit pan on this month but they're nowhere close to being done with anytime soon. For next month, my goal is to use up MAC Fix+ so I can finally back-to-MAC it!
Which products did you use up this month?

I love, love the scent of C.O. Bigelow Lemon Cream! I have the lip balm/cream. I think it'd be even less cost efective to ship the body wash to the UK!
ReplyDeleteI finally finished up my Nuxe Gentle Cleanser which was great for takin off all my make up, my Estee Lauder Moisturizer & The Body Shop Vitamin E Toner is pretty much finished.. So I'm happy abt that coz now I can start using my Liz Earle products which I'm really liking so far!
ReplyDeleteReally wanna finish up at least ONE makeup item though.. I'm so bad coz I have so many and continue buying..
I used up all of my Aveeno positively ageless daily antioxidant defense moisturizer it wars ahmazingly. I really want to try the lemon cream body wash it sounds delicious and I love lemony scents.
ReplyDeleteUgh! I rarely finish anything! I need to get better about using one thing until it's gone. I have such makeup ADD! Congrats on all the finishes, hopefully I will be able to train myself to finish some things up!
ReplyDeletedef need to check out that sonia K make up remover because I have heard good things about that product, left and right! Thanks for reviewing the toner from khiels which I have been curious about!
ReplyDeleteI love these empty products posts :D I love showing other people what I finished and doing mini reviews too! I have to check out that Sonia Kashuk makeup remover because everyone seems to love it :)
ReplyDeleteI finally finished one of my foundations (Maybelline) and primers (also Maybelline). I feel rather proud of myself lol :)
ReplyDeleteI nearly picked up the Lemon body wash this afternoon--I have the lip balm and really like the scent. But I do agree...it seems a bit much for B&BW.
ReplyDeleteHowever, I may have to grab a bottle of Sonia Kashuk's eye makeup remover. I love the one that I use, but it does seem tempting!
I've been meaning to do more posts like these...I love reading what others use up too, so it was great to see this.
Me too, I'm obsessed with the whole line it's so yummy! :)
ReplyDeleteYou finished quite a bit of products yourself lady, good job! I know what you mean though, it's so hard to stop or even slow down when so many products are continiously being talked about everywhere you look! I always wanted to try the TBS Vitamin E Toner, do you recommend it?
ReplyDeleteAveeno has some great moisturizers, I currently don't use any but I did before and loved them...even their body moisturizers are pretty amazing! I totally recommend the body wash if you feel ok paying $16 for it, I kind of didn't but I really miss it *sigh*
ReplyDeleteI used to buy so many unnecessary products, like even body/face products...I just don't think any one of us needs 2-3 moisturizers at a time...thankfully I stopped doing that and now I am able to actually finish something up :) Let's see if I can do the same with make up products lol I hope you will get to finish some products this month, it's never too late :)
ReplyDeleteI totally recommend the eye make up remover, it's just amazing! It's super gentle and definitely oil free, check it out! ;) Toner was ok, I mean it's just a toner hehe
ReplyDeleteGlad you like these posts, I love reading them too! :) It's a great product, I've tried so many different eye make up removers and all of them were so irritating and left oily residue which I cannot stand...this one is different ;)
ReplyDeleteFinishing a foundation is an accomplishment, yay! Congrats! :)
ReplyDeleteI knew someone would agree! I mean I understand it's C.O. Bigelow, so it's not exactly BBW but still! I wish they were put on promotions more often because I just adore the scent! Totally recommend SK eye make up remover, million times better than Target brand or Neutrogena...compared to SK they are both oily beyond words and are both super irritating on my skin :/ Glad you liked my post lady, yes definitely do them I loveeee reading these :)
