Graveyard: March and April empties 2015

19. May 2015

Here are my product empties for March and April and a quick impression on each product. I’m a bit late for the post, but hopefully you like it anyways :) As usual, I didn’t include any sample sachets or sheet masks masks, because it is too messy to keep these.

1. Rosemine Floral Remedy Foaming Cleanser. Repurchase? Maybe someday. I have to many cleansers right now.

You can read my review on this foaming cleanser >>here<<. I love the packaging and it had a nice scent. The foam was thick and soft and the cleanser contained rose petals.

2. Happy Bath Rose Essence. Repurchase? I would love to!

This bath and shower cream had the most lingering and nicest rose scent! If you are a lover you will love this…but I remember it was marked quite expensive, sadly.

3. Shib Jang Ceng Chun Ji Heang Hand Cream. Repurchase? Yes, please.

This moisturizing and nourishing hand cream has a long name, but nevertheless it does a great job as hand cream. It contains ginseng extracts, shea butter and olive oil and was not sticky, not greasy and I loved using it!

4. Lush Whoosh Shower Jelly. Repurchase? No.

I like the idea of shower jelly and it was quite fun. Nevertheless, this specific product scent was nbot my favourite, but I could imagine getting other versions of it.

5. Kerastase Elixir Ultime. Repurchase? Maybe.

I received this hair oil trial the last time I was giving my hair a cut. It is a nice and lightweight oil and I could imagine to try it again. Unfortunately, Kerastase products are quite expansive.

6. Boutique Bebe Hair Salon Concentrate Protein. Repurchse? Maybe.

You can read my review >>here<<. I enjoyed using these two hair treatments and I can imagine that I would repurchase them again from time to time.

7. Mise en scène Perfect Repair Treatment Pack. Repurchase? Yes!

This treatment was georgeous. It made the hair super soft and easy to comb after an instant. Although labelled for twice a week use I was using it almost every second day because I loved the effect. I would like to repurchase this again. Although I read in some that they think the scent is old-women scent, but I got used to it and even liked it after all. I still have the Mise en scène Perfect Serum and I’m planning to write a comparative post between a couple of hair oils.

8.Dewytree Real Collagen nutrition serum. Repurchase? Maybe.

There is still an upcoming review for this :D I enjoyed this serum and I love the pump bottle it has and the subtle rose/flower scent.

9. Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Cream. Repurchase? Maybe.

a hydrating cream which contains hyaluronic acid and is very nice on the skin. You can read my review >>here<<.

10. Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Serum. Repurchase? Maybe.

Another hydrating product from the Klairs Rich Moist soothing line. I was enjoying all the products, especially in winter. Read my review >>here<<.

11. Klairs Gentle Black Deep Cleansing Oil. Repurchase? Yes! As soon as I’ve finished my other cleansers.

This is the best cleansing oil I have tried so far and I can recommend you to try it! Read my review >>here<<. I love the scent, I love how it cleanses. A great product!

12. Klairs Supple Preparation Facial Toner. Repurchase? Yes!

Suprisingly, I fell in love with that toner, although I thought it will be my least favourite of the Klairs products. It has a nice pH of 5 and is really a good preparation facial toner. Read my review >>here<<.

13. Hanskin Bio Origin BB creams. Repruchase? Maybe the ampoule BB.

I wrote a comparison review on these two BB creams >>here<<. I liked the ampoule BB better than the other one, but both are descent products.

14. COSRX Natural BHA Skin Returning A-Sol. Repurchase? A good product to have in case of emergency!

I received this selfmade trial version of COSRX Natural BHA Skin Returning A-Sol in a giveaway by Sam Murakami from ColorCrush (check out her blog/videos). Thanks again for the lovely giveaway, dear ♥ I must say I had a positive impression on this product and I would love to try it for a longer time, if I have some more skin troubles (hopefully not). This treatment contains propolis, AHA/BHA and works great on troubled skin. It has an acid pH of 4 and should be used after a pH lowering toner and before your other moisturizing steps (including moisturizing toner/essences/serums/creams/ampoules etc). It is on sale at Wishtrend atm!

15. Yadah Vita-Whitening Aqua Gel and Puregreen Moisturizing Cream. Repurchase?No.

These two sample sized creams were a dissapointment. First: the lids were not closing properly, so I assume that some of the product either leaked out or evaporated/dried up after a while, although I didn’t open it before. Due to this my skin didn’t like the creams. One was to heavy balmtype and the other didn’t absorb either.

16. Tonymoly Eggpore Nose Pack Package. Repurchase? These, or other nosepacks.

I like to use nosepacks occasionally, although they say they are not good. But I love the feeling of seeing some dead skincells and dirt and babyhair pulled of by these kind of patches, although it is quite gross, especially when my bf does use these :D

Do you know any of these and did you try them yourself? What is your opinion on these products I showed above? I’d be happy about your comments ♥

Graveyard: November and December Empties 2014

14. January 2015

Here are the last empties I’ve got for you from 2014. I also changed the design of my product graveyard cover image. Hope you like it :D I’m still not sure if this will be final though. Now, have fun reading about my emtied products for the last two months (I didn’t keep sheet masks and other masks, and also no sample sachets…it would simply be too much…and also too messy ;)

1. Laneige Waterbank Essence: Repurchase? Yes, if I can afford it XD

A very nice and moisturizing essence. A pitty Laneige is quite expensive, otherwise I would have bought the fullsized product already. A review is upcoming.

2. Nivea Soft Milk: Repurchase? Yes.

I bought this a couple of times and since it is cheap and locally available I would always get another one when needed.

3. Etude House Lash Perm 3 Step Volumescara: Repurchase? Yes, but I still want to try various different asian mascaras first.

A volumizing and lengthening mascara. You can turn it and change the amount of mascara on the brush by rotating in three steps. See my review >>here<<.

4. Tunemakers Original Moisture Lotion? Repurchase? Yes, but I have a lot of new toners to test first.

This water based toner has a light acid pH and not many, but good ingredients, like hylanoronic acid, honey, ceramide and collagen. If you love products with few ingredients which are natural you should check out Tunemakers. Read my review >> here <<.

5. Anatomicals sud the lot of you get lost grime body cleanser: Repurchase? No.

Nothing special about this body cleanser to be honest. The scent wasn’t spectacular either.

6. Dita von Teese Rouge Shower Gel: Repurchase? Yes!

I told you already how much I love the Dita von Teese Rouge Body Lotion and Perfume and I do love the shower gel, too. The scent also lingers quite some time on your skin and is amazing! Love it ♥

7. Lush Sugar Scrub: Repurchase? Maybe.

This scrub was really nice, but I don’t like the packaging because it has no protection for the scrub. If you do not put it in another container it will melt away in the shower as soon as it gets wet. The scent was nice though and the grains did a good scrub on my body.

8. Shiseido Ibuki Softening Lotion: Repurchase? Yes, but it is too expensive…

I really like the scent of the Ibuki line and this softening toner really softens the skin. I did like using it, but it is too expensive to be rebought atm.

9. Donginbi Donginbidam Red Gingseng Aqua Oil & Red Ginseng Aqua Pack Essence: Repurchase? Yes and No.

This set was part of Memebox Oriental Medicine and from the two products I really liked the Aqua Oil better, which was a watery and ungreasy facial oil. The essence was okay, but nothing special. I think this is more on the expensive side which is why I would not repurchase it. Other than this it was an interesting line and brand. Review is upcoming.

10. Avène Cleansing Lotion: Repurchase? No.

This mild cleansing lotion unfortunately didn’t remove makeup as I expected. If you have gentle skin you will like it, and if you don’t wear makeup you will like it, too. Other than that it is not really useful.

11. Hairich Vedacell Hair Program Shampoo: Repurchase? No.

This herbal shampoo was part of Memebox Global No. 8 and it targets hair growth and vitality, similar to the Damoae Therapy Shampoo. I liked the effects from the Damoae shampoo better and my hair was softer after washing it. If I would go for a herbal shampoo, I would go for Damoae.

12. Declaré Anti- Irritation Serum: Repurchase? No.

I was not convinced by this serum, especially compared to asian serums I tried. It was too sticky, when applied alone! But the application with included pipette in the cap was nice and the scent was pleasant, too. And it did a great job in moisturizing the skin. Read my review >> here <<.

13. D’Ran wonder Serum: Repurchase? No.

This serum is packed with great ingredients used in traditional korean and chinese medicine. I liked using it and it had a nice and calming ginseng scent. Read my review >> here <<.

14. Etude House Aloe Moistful Soothing Gel: Repurchase? Yes, or maybe another aloe gel

The Etude House aloe soothing gel comes in a convenient pump packaging, which was the reason for me to buy it. It is soothing and refreshing for face and body and perfect for warm weather. I could imagine buying another Aloe gel for summer. Read my review >> here <<.

15. MAX Clinic Caviar Massage Oil Form Cleanser: Repurchase? No.

I had high hopes for this cleanser since it sounds very luxurious, just from the name. I didn’t like the citrus scent and it was not the best oil cleanser I encountered. Read my review >> here <<.

16. Missha Vita M BB Cream Moisture: Repurchase? Maybe.

A light BB cream with a glowy finish. I love Missha BB creams, but the Perfect Cover BB is still my favourite. Read my review >> here <<. Anyways, I could not repurchase it at the moment because I have too many BB creams :D

Which items did you try from these? Any favourites? Leave a comment if you like ♥

Graveyard: September and October Empties

6. November 2014

I completely forgot to make an empty post for Septmeber and here are now my product empties from two months. Again, I’m really trying hard to use up all my opened products at the moment and it starts to show some progress slowly. I didn’t keep the sample sachets or sheet masks though…It would be too much of a mess. Nevertheless, I hope you’ll have fun reading!

1. Dita Von Teese Rouge Body Lotion – Repurchase? Yes.

I love the scent of this line by Dita. I tried all the perfumes and the Rouge Line is my favourite scent and at the same time this body lotion smells great. The scent lingers on the skin for a long time and it absorbs fast and makes the skin feel nice. I will repurchase this (I still have the shower gel in use atm…*_*).

2. Naobay Protective Shampoo and Shower Gel -Repurchase? No.

This was part of one of my older Glossyboxes. I used it as shower gel only, so I cannot say anything about the quality as a shampoo. The scent was not my favourite scent but it wasn’t bad either. Nevertheless, it didn’t convince me in a way that I would repurchase it.

3. Illi Fresh Moisture Body Lotion – Repurchase? Maybe.

You will find my review >>here<<. This was part of one of the Global MeMeBoxes. It is a citrus scented moisturizing lotion. I liked that the citrus/lemon scent was natural and not like bathroom cleaning products. It absorbs quickly, too and was not sticky at all. It was a tiny bit to runny for my tasting but I could imagine to try one of their other lotions.

4. The Faceshop Face It Auro Color Control Cream- Repurchase? Yes.

I really do like this CC cream from The Faceshop. It has a nice coverage and lovely finish. I’m sad that it is emptie now, but there are refills available. As soon as I have used up 2-3 of my other BB/CC cream tubes I will repurchase this. I also like the fact that you can buy refills for it. See my review >>here<<. I’m sorry, that my older posts have blurry images…this is because of the switch I made to my new domain. I’ll try to fix all the older posts as soon as I have some spare time. :/

5. CaoLion Mool Pool Deep Cleansing -Repurchase? No.

Actually, I didn’t like this too much. It didn’t remove everything, it had a almost watery consistency and I didn’t like the scent.

6. Balea Diamantentraum Bodylotion – Repurchase? Yes.

Balea is a German drugstore brand, which is easily available and has fair prices. This bodylotion was a limited edition and I liked the scent. It made a nice feeling of the skin. Since it is affordable I would definitively repurchase their bodylotions, but maybe another version, just for the variety.

7. Kneipp Hautöl Mandelblüten Hautarzt – Repurchase? Yes.

Another German brand :) This almond blossom oil has such a nice scent. It is perfect for dry skin and delivers deep nourishment. I enjoyed using it, and I have a second travel-sized version of this oil still in use.

8. Pure Smile Muddy Girl Charcoal Face Mask – Repurchase? Maybe.

This charcoal-type mask pack from the Japanese brand Pure Smile was in my first MeMeBox My Cute Wishlist. It has a heartshaped packaging and contains enough product for 2 times usage. It is a mud-type mask which dries on your face. It has some cooling effect and I heard that some reacted to these pacs, but luckily I just experienced the cool feeling and a tightened skin. I would like to purchase other masks from this brand just to see how they compare.

9. Secret Key Starting Treatment Essence – Repurchase? Maybe.

Since I tried samples from Missha’s Time Revolution First Treatment Essence and was overwhelmed by it I wanted to get the essence. Unfortunately it is not the cheapest product. I found some reviews on Secret Key’s Starting Treatment Essence and read that it was comparable with the one from Missha, and even cheaper. So I decided to get the travel size. I enjoyed using it- but I enjoyed the one from Missha even better. Especially since the effects were much quicker visible and the scent of the Missha product is much nicer.Nevertheless, considering the price, I might buy the one from Secret Key again…

10. The Body Shop Vitamin E Nightcreme – Repurchase? Yes.

I love this cream! It was only a tiny sample jar, but it lasted for quite some time. This rich and nourishing night cream has a wonderful flowery scent and a perfect consistency for a night cream. It absorbs fast and makes the skin silky. I used it in combination with the Vitamin C serum from Tunemakers (see below).

11. Tunemakers VC-3 Serum – Repurchase? Maybe.

This stabilized vitamin C serum is a good alternative to O.S.T. Vitamin C Serum because it is mild and suited for sentitive skin, too. Unfortunately, the bottle is not large, but it lasted for 2,5 months. In general, both of the products from Tunemakers that I tried ( the toner and this serum) were nice products with few ingredients only. This brand is worth a closer look.

12. Shiseido Ibuki Protective Moisturizer – Repurchase? Yes.

I had quite some samples from the Ibuki line and I like the scent and the effect of the products. This emulsion is really great. It absorbs super fast into the skin and makes ist feel soft and moisturized without any stickiness or greasiness. If I had the money for it I would buy it immediately.

12. Only You Green Tea Jamine Bodyscrub – Repurchase? Maybe.

I didn’t know this brand but I received a set of products as a gift. I love drinking green tea and jamine, so I was very pleased about the scent. It is a milder body scrub with shower gel. I’m still using the shower gel and the body lotion, which have the same nice scent.

These are quite some products. Do you know any of these and did you try them yourself? What is your opinion on these products I showed above? I’d be happy about your comments ♥

Graveyard: August empties 2014

8. September 2014

August has passed too quickly :/ But it means, that I have a new empties post for you. Here you go:

1. Etude House Color My Brows – Repurchase? Yes.

This was the first eyebrow mascara I bought. I wanted my brows to have a lighter color than my natural dark eyebrows and it did a descent job. Considering the price I could imagine to repurchase it, too. See my old review >>here<<.

2. Bebe More (Johnson&Johnson) Fresh Eyes and Face – Repurchase? No.

This was in one of the Glossyboxes I received. It is a nice eye makeup remover and it did a good job. Moreover, it is a local drugstore brand so it is easily available here in Germany. But there are a lot of other cleansers in my stash which I would love to try first before I repurchase this.

3. Shiseido Perfect Whip Cleansing Foam and Watery Oil – Repurchase? Yes.

I really enjoyed using these two. They were part of the promotional set of the Shiseido Hada Senka Lotion. I loved especially the foam cleanser. It created such a lovely soft foam with a foaming net ♥ These cleansers are quite cheap in full size, so I’m thinking of buying the Perfect Whip Foam in future.

4. John Frida Frizz-Ease Daily Miracle Deep Conditioner – Repurchase? Maybe.

I still have a travel size version of this leave in deep conditioner. It’s easy to use and it tames your hair if your hair tends to be frizzy…At the moment I’m prefering hair oils… that’s the only reason I won’t repurchase it at the moment. (I don’t know if I translated the product name correctly).

5. Syoss Deep Repair Hair Treatment – Repurchase? Maybe.

Again, the same as for the above, I’m using mostly hairoils at the moment and very rarely deep conditioners…and my hair looks much better since that. But maybe I will repurchase this sometime, especially when my hair gets longer again :D

That’s it for my product empties from August. Not much, but still some :D I used a couple of samples and sheet masks, but I don’t want to list them :D Do you know any of the above? What’s your opinion about them? Leave a comment if you like ♥

Also, there are two giveaways ongoing here at the moment. Click on the images below to see the posts:

Graveyard: July 2014

31. July 2014

Another month passed, which means another graveyard post for me. Here are the product empties in July 2014:

1. Damoae Therapy Shampoo – Repurchase? Yes!

I would love to repurchase this shampoo. It worked so nice on my hair and gave me back the shine I missed so much. Also my hair felt stronger during the time I used. You can also check out the before and after pictures in my review for Damoae Therapy Shampoo and Tonic. They speak for themselves. Unfortunatelly, it is a bit pricey…But the shampoo also lasts for quite a time. I used it together with my bf, both of us washing our hair twice with the shampoo, and it lasted for 3 months. I guess for one person it can last more than half a year.

2. Innisfree Green Tea Pure Deluxe Kit – Repurchase? Parts of it.

Also here you can check out my review. I enjoyed using the kit, because it contained everything for a nice skincare routine, but my favourite items were the emulsion and the sleeping mask. I could imagine rebuying these some time. For green tea lovers I can definitively recommend you to try out one of the products from this line, or search for those kinds of kits. It is always more helpful than buying a fullsize and discovereing that you don’t like it.

3. Mizon Snail Recovery Gel Cream – Repurchase? Yes.

I talked about this product more than once and it was in one of my previous empty posts, too. This is the second tube I bought, which was at my bf’s place. Snail mucus newbies should try out this gel cream. You can also read more in my review.

4. TheFaceShop Foot Peeling – Repurchase? Yes.

My first foot peeling! I was doubtfull if if yould work, but it did. My skin is renewed and I’m ready for summertime and sandals XD Review in progress.

5. Skinfood Vita Water Drop CC Cream – Repurchase? Yes and no.

This is such an adorable packaging!*_* I’m still in love with it, although it is now time for us to part XD This was my first CC cream and it is not one of those CC creams containing color changing beads, but a fully colored one. It has a light and watery texture and gives you a nice finish. I really like this product. I won’t repurchase it though, simply because I have so many other CC/BB creams which I need to finish up before rebuying anything XD. Here is my review.

6. Skinmiso Rice Foam Cleansing – Repurchase? No.

This foam cleanser made me curious because it contained rice. It is a good cleanser, building up a decent amount of foam with a tiny bit of product. Somehow the scent is not my favourite and considering the huge amount of different cleanser I will try other foam cleanser before I repurchase this one. Read my review here.

Here are all my empty products in one picture :) Time to say goodbye to them :D

Which products do you like from these? Which did you try? Which one would you like to try? Leave a comment if you like :)

Graveyard: June 2014

27. June 2014

This month I’m super on schedule with my empties post. Unbelievable! :D I’m feeling super relaxed at the moment, since I finally received my PHD degree *(^__^)* I hope that I’ll be able to do much more posts, especially more regularily. There are so many products that are waiting in my draft for being published and so many images which need to be prepared :D But first let’s start with my product empties graveyard for June 2014:

1. Maybelline Collosal Volume Mascara- Repurchase? Yes!

I’ve always been a fan of Maybelline’s Volume mascaras and I bought lots of them in the past. At the moment I’m trying Japanese and Korean mascara’s so I didn’t repurchase, but I could imagine to do sometime.

2. Naobay Oxigenating Cream Moisturizing- Repurchase? No.

I received this with one of my Glossyboxes. The finish of the cream is nice because it feels like mattifying, but the residues of the cream oxidise (funny coincidence regarding the name) in the cap of the tube and I didn’t like that at all.

3. Tonymoly Clean Dew Olive Seed Foam Cleanser- Repurchase? Yes.

Check out my review on this cleanser >>here<<. It is a nice and mild cleanser and it feels quite moisturizing compared to other foam cleansers.

4. Missha Creamy Latte Chocolate Foam Cleanser- Repurchase ? Yes.

This is ideal for chocolate scent lovers. I do love the scent so much!!! The only downside is the stinging if you get it into your eyes….>_< So you have to be extra carefull. check out my review >>here<<.

5. Guerlain La Petite Robe Noire- Repurchase? Yes!

I seldom write anything about perfume, although I planned to do some reviews in future. I really loved this scent and the design and name of this product is so adorable. It is a sweet/ flowery scent. Loved it!♥

6. P2 Color victim Nailpolish- Repurchase? Yes.

This local drugstore nailpolish is cheap and has a nice color pay-off. I bought it a couple of times and I would buy it anytime again (as soon as I’m running out of red colored nailpolishes XD)

7. O.S.T. Original Pure Vitamin C Serum- Repurchase? Double-Yes!

This is the most loved product of this month’s empties! I really think that everybody should try this serum at least for a couple of week. It is so effective! I’m really sad that I used it up, but I’m sure that it will find a way back to me ♥♥♥ Check out my review >>here<<.

I was pretty successfull in using up some items finally. :) If you get any chance grab a bottle of the O.S.T. vitamin C serum. I used to mix it with the Eucerin even Brighter cream (which I loved, too) and it worked greatly. If I won’t try any other item during summer which will convince me even more, I’m planning to buy this combination for winter again. :)

Did you try any of these products?

Graveyard: April and May 2014

5. June 2014

Another collective empties post. I’m trying hard to use up my hoarded cosmetics and skincare and I’m doing quite good :D I emptied these products the last two months and I’ve already collected some more items in the last couple of days :D Let’s see what is in my product graveyard for April and May.

1. Philip B. African Shea Butter Gentle and Conditioning Shampoo – Repurchase? Yes and no.

I enjoyed using this shampoo. It made my hair smooth and I didn’t have to use the straigtheners as often as I usually do. The only downside is the price, which is the main reason I don’t buy it again.

2. Nail Paint by Berry M. – Repurchase? Yes and No.

I love the color. It is the kind of red everybody needs. Unfortunately it is not available locally for me. I would buy it, if I had the chance again.

3. Skinfood Salmon Brightening Eye Cream – Repurchase? Yes.

It is a nice eyecream and the huuuuuge jar contains product for forever…I could not use it up, it is simply too much. But the feeling of the cream is nice.And the packaging is adorable. Check out my review >>here<<.

4. Missha Flower Bouquet Cherry Blossom Cleansing Cream Repurchase? Yes.

I love the scent!!!And I was happy to use it every morning. It is a pitty it comes in a jar, because it is not the most convenient packaging. Other than this it is a nice product. Check out my review >>here<<.

5. Just Cavali Just- Repurchase? No.

A perfumed body lotion. It was nice to use but it is not the scent I oersonally would spend money on ;)

6. CrazySmooth antiFrizz Conditioning – Repurchase? No

Surprisingly this conditioner was really effective. It helped detangling my hair and was satisfying. It is not my favourite scent though, but it is vegan.

7. Mizon Snail Recovery Cream Gel – Repurchase? Yes.

I love this one. It is cheap and effective and I would totally repurchase. I bought two tubes together and the second one is almost empty, too. check out my review >>here<<.

8. Mitchel and Pitch Body creme-Repurchase?Yes!

I love the scent. It is similar to Lush’s Dreamcream. I definitively would love to repurchase either this or the Dreamcream.

9. The Body Shop Cacao Butter Body Scrub Repurchase?Yes.

This scrub is great. It has a delicious scent and makes the skin feel super smooth. I would love to repurchase it.

Do you know any of these products or would you like to try any of these?

Graveyard: January to March 2014

24. April 2014

As you can see I’m a bit late for this post, but I thought I’ll put it up anyway, since I already edited the image for it :) Here are my empties for January, Febuary and March…(I also used a bunch of samples and sheet masks which I didn’t keep).

1. TheBodyShop Strawberry Body Polish- Repurchase?Yes!

I love this showering gel with the tiny strawberry particles. It smells divine and it foams up nicely too. Plus, you have these strawberry grains for a soft peeling effect. This is the second time I bought it and there will be a time when I will repurchase this again.

2. Nivea Supreme Touch Cream Shower- Repurchase? Maybe.

I love the scent of Nivea products. This one is no exception. Other than this it is a regular showering product. I like it, I would rebuy it, but I prefer testing other shower creams/gels.

3. Lush Dream Cream Hand and Body Lotion- Repurchase? Yes!

I was in love with the scent while using it and I really liked the feeling it left behind on my skin. I think I used this jar within a week and I would definitively rebuy it (but it is quite expensive compared to other body lotions…;_;).

4. Skin79 Super BB and Super Gold BB creams – Repurchase? Maybe.

These are both nice BB creams and if I would not have so many other BB creams and if the market would not keep up making new versions, I would rebuy those because they do a quite nice job- not perfect, but nice. I reviewed these in the past (>>here<<).

5. The Face Shop Mango Seed Line – Repurchase? Yes!

I really loved using these products from the MangoSeed line. If you are interested read my review >>here<<. I want to repurchase these for winter, when my skin is in need of a lot of moisture.

6. Great Length Daily Moisture Shampoo – Repurchase? No.

This Shampoo did not overwhelm me. It was not even giving me the feeling of having more moisturized hair, so I wouldn’t repurchase it.

7. Laneige Water Sleeping Pack – Repurchase? Yes.

I loved the scent, I loved the effect and there is nothing more to say. See my old review on it >>here<<.

8. Missha M Perfect Cover BB cream – Repurchase? Yes.

This is my last hoarded tube of Missha’s Perfect cover BB ;_;. I love this cream, it works super well with me, it did improve my skin so much during the first year I used it. I would always repurchase this BB cream…but I have o get rid of all the other BB creams I hoarded first ;_; See my old review >>here<<.

Did you try any of these?

I’ll try to do the next empty post earlier than after 3 months :D Hope I can keep up to my words now :D

Graveyard: November & December 2013 Empties

11. January 2014

I was a bit lazy about these posts for the last two months, so here are my empties for November and December of last year:

Aok Pur Balance Seasand Peeling: Repurchase?Yes. Since my Skinfood Black Sugar Scrub Foam was empty I needed something which new, and since I was looking around in local drugstore’s I saw this product, which I had 2-3 times before and since I liked it back then I decided to go for it again. I love the scent, but some may dislike it, because it smells of clay…I know, it is strange to like that kind of scent, however…

Eucerin Even Brighter Day Cream: Repurchase?Yes. I didn’t expect I would like this cream that much, but this is really a nice cream. My skin looked so good after using it, especially since I mixed it with O.S.T Vitamin C Serum (review >>here<<). After trying Benton’s and Mizon’s cream, I will probably buy this one in full size (this was only a trial sized jar). The only thing I disliked was the scent, because it was basically scent free. For some of you this might be perfect though. I could live with this point nevertheless.

Super Aqua Marine Stem Cell Defending Cream. Repurchase? Yes. Okay, I have a lot of Day creams on my “repurchase” list, I know, but there is still so many to try. This one is one of the first moisturizers I bought which made me happy and which I rebought 3 times already. It simply does the things it claims to do and it is great for dry skin (review >>here<<). If you have super dry skin I would rather recommend you Missha’s Super Aqua Ultra Waterfull Cream (review >>here<<).

Nature Republic Hawaiian Fresh Mango Pack. Repurchase? Yes. I reviewed it >>here<< and I loved it. I could imagine getting the tube version of this pack. This is a refreshing, fruity pack which makes the skin feel really soft and nourished.

Beyond Phytogenic Facial Foam. Repurchase? Not necessarily. This is a good product and the ingredients are good. The scent was herbal and although I normally don’t like herbal scents, I liked using it in the evening…Nevertheless there are probably other cleansing foams I would like to buy. See the review >>here<<.

The Body Shop Cranberry Joy Shower Gel? Repurchase? Not necessarily. I love TBS products, and I enjoyed this one as well. It smells great and makes a nice foam. But since it is not my favourite scen I would rather go for another shower gel of TBS ;) That doesn’t mean that I was dissappointed about it.

Weleda Citrus Bodylotion: Repurchase?No. I didn’t like the scent. I was like bathroom cleaner.

Most of the other products I used were samples, or masks. So I didn’t keep them.

Hope you enjoyed reading.:)

Graveyard: September and October Empties

7. November 2013

It’s quite a while ago that I made a post about the product I used up, but somehow I managed to put my focus on decreasing my growing sample collection instead of buying new things. But finally a couple of products had to say goodbye:

Virgin Coconut Oil: I love using this in winter, on my body, in my hair…I’ll be buying a new jar of coconut oil soon, I’m sure :D Repurchase?Yes!

The Body Shop Banana Shampoo and Conditioner: I love the scent of these, so exotic and reminds me of summer. If you don’t like the scent of bananas I’d recommend you not to buy it. Repurchase?Yes!

Skinfood Black Sugar Scrub Foam: I reviewed this ages ago (here) and I loved using it as often as possible. Repurchase? Yes, but first I’ll try some other scrubs :D

Missha Super Aqua Marine Stem Cell Defending Cream: This was my second jar, which means I love this product actually a lot. It moisturizes greatly and works perfect for me. You find my review >>here<< . Nevertheless I’m going to try out some other moisturizer next-and of course use some of the many samples I’ve still hoarded. Repurchase?Yes, unless I’ll find a better moisturizer :D

Sans Soucis Anti Age Radiance Daily Moisturizer: I didn’t like that this moisturizer had tiny glitter particles contained. Also the smell wasn’t one of my favourites, although it was not bad. Repurchase? No.

Rexaline Hydra Eye Zone Eye Cream: this is a solid eye cream which absorbs quickly. Nevertheless I’ve still a lot in my Skinfood Salmon Brightening Eye Cream, so I won’t repurchase this one. Repurchase?No.

Rimmel 60 Seconds Nail Polish Frisky Clover: I loved the color a lot. The formula was thicker than other nail polishes. Unfortunately Rimmel was discontinued in Germany :/ Repurchase? unfortunately no.

So, that’s it again :) Hope you enjoyed reading ♥
