Clinique clarifying lotion (dry combination)
This is all time favourite toner! It is refreshing, feels clean, helps exfoliate, doesn't dry my skin out, doesn't smell too strongly and actually makes a difference on my skin. It is step 2 of the 3-step skin care regime by Clinique. I use to use Clinque religiously for all my skincare but I've recently branched out... I will however stick to this toner most likely forever!! Repurchase? Definately.
Apivita express beauty with orange
I received this facemask in one my beauty subscription boxes. I liked the sound of it and the fact it was relatively quick (10 mins to dry). After using it I wasn't 100% impressed though - the orange smell was a bit strong and there is something else in there that I can't put my finger on, but it's something I don't like! It stung my face a little as well. It did dry well and evenly and was easy to wash off. It left my skin feeling clean, but the feeling didn't last long. I didn't notice to much of a difference with this product.
Repurchase? No
Vaseline healthy radiance anti-ageing lotion
Another beauty box product, and one that I really loved. My current lotion is by Nivea however after trying this product I'm sold! It feels lush on your skin and hydrates well. My skin dries out very easily and this was just perfect. It smells great too. Not sure about the whole 'anti-aging' part of it, but whatever it still works for me.
Repurchase? Hell yeah! (after I finish my current supply of lotion!)
Clinique high impact curling mascara - black
I got this as part of a free gift time with purchase of Clinque. It is a good mascara with a curvy wand, helping to curl your lashes. I used this without an eyelash curler and was impressed by the results. It doesn't clump either which is great. The only problem I found was the mascara would stick all around the bottom of the brush and then spill out around the rim of the bottle. I'd have to wipe A LOT of excess of the brush back into the bottle and this contributed to it sticking all around the opening of the bottle so I couldn't close the product all the way.. not sure if this is just because of the small size though. Not sold on the mascara, I've used other mascaras which are just as good and cheaper.
Repurchase? No
Thinking of you by Mary Kay
This perfume sample came in another beauty box. This scent is definately not for me. It is very mature and in my fiance's words "smells like my nan"
Repurchase? No. I have another sample, which I'll give to my fiance's nan!
Clarins beauty flash balm
This is an amazing product. I was given this as a gift and hadn't tried any Clarins product prior to this one. I use it as a primer, just pat on (don't rub it in) and apply makeup immediately. It helps my makeup glide on perfectly, gives a glow similar to illuminater and makes my makeup last longer. A little goes a long way which is great too. The packaging says to use it ias a 10-15min mask however I didn't get around to trying it. Perhaps I will when I repurchase.
Repurchase? Yes
Pure Fiji coconut sugar rub
I adore Pure Fiji and was lucky enough to receive a yummy gift basket for my birthday. This sugar rub smells divine and feels even better. It leaves your skin feeling clean and exfoliated.
Repurchase? Most likely, if I have the extra cash
Lush vanishing cream
This facial moisturiser was another sample. The smell alone put me off it is so strong and hangs around after you've applied to your face. It doesn't feel like it moisturises at all, it pretty much just vanishes and does nothing except for smell!
Repurchase? No
Clinique moisture surge extended thirst relief
What a divine moisturiser. This is just perfect for my dry skin, especially in winter. I can't say enough good things about this product. It smells good, is lightweight and feels cool and hydrating. I just love it.
Repurchase? Yes
So that is it so far for my empties, stay tuned.... soooo many more products to come!!!
