Hey guys! This month is a sad month for empties. I only used up five products and I also included a product that was so old it didn't even work! Here's what I used up this past month!
The first product I used up is my beloved Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry Touch Sunblock with SPF 55. I've talked about this sunblock multiple times, but this is probably my absolute favorite sunblock ever. It doesn't make my face greasy and it doesn't break me out. I have plenty of backups of this product too so I won't repurchase right now, but when I run out completely, I definitely will.
Next I used up a mini Philosophy Shower Gel in the Scent Bubbly. It smelled kinda like champagne and it actually took me a while to go through because you don't need alot of product. A little bit goes a long way. I have a ton of Philosophy shower gels in my closet to use up so I won't repurchase for a while.
Then I finally used up the Super Hyper Hydrator with Coconut Water. I've also talked about this before and I used this as my nighttime moisturizer. It really helped when my skin was feeling really dry, which for me is rare because I'm usually an oil slick. This winter season has been particularly rough on my skin so I've definitely been needing something heavier.
I used up a little mini sample of the Tarte Clean Slate Poreless face primer. This was a decent primer, but for some reason, and I don't know if it's just my skin or what, but nothing I've ever tried has prevented my face from becoming oily. Now I did notice that I stayed matte for about 3 to 4 hours before I got shiny, but I'm still looking for something that helps my skin stay matte all day while I'm at work. I'm still searching...
The next product I used up is the on10 Lip Balm in the flavor Black Cherry Seltzer. I'm not sure if I've mentioned these lip balms before, maybe I did once, but I love these. They smell so amazing and they're very moisturizing. They also have an SPF of 15 which is really nice. I have alot of these to use up from kits I bought a while ago, but I don't think they're available to purchase anymore.
Now the last product is the old one. Once I used up the black cherry one, I wanted to use the Vegan Hemp Balm in the Orange flavor but when I tried putting in on my lips, it was so dry and icky! I can't remember when I bought this either so I don't know if it's years and years old or fairly recent. Definitely throwing it out since I couldn't even get any on my fingers to spread around!
That's everything I used up! I'm hoping this month I can use up some more makeup and hair care. I'm always using up tons of skincare and body care and I wanna show some variety once the end of March hits! Lets hope I can do it!
I've been meaning to try the Tarte primer but haven't gotten around to it yet. After your review, I'm still undecided! I may just have to try it anyhow. Thanks for sharing!

It was an alright primer. Nothing too special in my opinion but you may like it :)

ReplyDeleteI'm working on using up some makeup. It gets to be difficult since I like makeup. I'm going to try this - setting apart a couple of things to use up during a month's time. Have a blessed weekend! visiting from the blog hop
ReplyDeleteIt's very tough using up makeup! I have so much of it so it's rare when I have a makeup item in an empties post.

I love the sound of the Super Hyper Hydrator with Coconut water (bit of a mouthful isnt it!) xx
