October Empties

Another month, another rubbish blog post. Well, me posting about my rubbish, anyway!

It's actually a little misleading calling this an Empties post because I have way more items that I am decluttering. Firstly, I'll show you what I finished anyway

Papa Recipe Bombee Royal Honey Propolis Sheet Masks- I finished off the box of these masks and as much as I ended up quite liking them, there's so many sheet masks that I want to try.
Repurchase? I'm not in any hurry to restock these.

Hand Chemistry Triple-Function Hyaluronic-Rich Hydrator- This hand cream is quite light weight, which is great for applying during the day, and does a nice job of hydrating the hands.
Repurchase? I would consider buying this hand cream again. If I'm to be honest, though, I'm not that fussy with hand creams and I don't seek out particular brands, just whatever sounds good.

Sierra Bees Unflavored Lip Balm- I finally finished off this pack of lip balms. I found them good to throw in my hand bag.
Repurchase? I'm not in need of lip balms, but I wouldn't rule out buying these again if they're still available on iHerb.


Moreish Cream Cleanser- This is a regular in my skincare routine.
Repurchase? I would if I could, but it has been discontinued.

 Hand Chemistry Hyaluronuc Body Mist- I love the fine mist of this body moisturiser. I wish I had have saved this product for Summer, because it is light and refreshing and leaves my skin soft and hydrated.
Repurchase? No, I really liked the effectiveness of this body mist, but I just didn't like the scent. It reminded me of the disinfectant smell of hospitals. I don't like hospitals.

 Clinique Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm- I loved using this balm for removing my makeup. Less messy and effective.
Repurchase? No, loved it, but this product costs more than I am willing to pay for a makeup remover, especially when the budget friendly Simple Cleansing Oil works just as well at removing makeup.

 Morphe M501- I used this brush to apply my highlighter. Did a fantastic job for this purpose, but has started shedding, so time to go.
Repurchase? I would buy this brush, but am not making an online order for one brush and I'm not ready to place a bigger order just yet because of my low buy.

As you can see, I am decluttering 4 palettes (there's a small one in the following photo). I can't believe I am parting with palettes, but I'm trying to reform my hoarding ways and thin my rather large eye shadow collection. If I can't give them love, they've got to go!


...aaaand more decluttered products.

BH Cosmetics Carli Bybel Deluxe Palette and Giveaway

Image
When BH Cosmetics released the original Carli Bybel palette I was tossing up whether I was going to purchase it or not. Sure, it was pretty with lovely neutral shades, but I was trying to cut down my eye shadow palette buying to only palettes that I really, really had to have and I wasn't convinced that was the case. When the Carli Bybel Deluxe version was released containing 15 shadows and 6 highlighters as opposed to the original which had 10 eye shadows and 3 highlighters, I had to have it. I went as far as pre-ordering the palette before it was even released. The sneak peek swatches had won me over! Taken from BH Cosmetics - "This palette features 11 original shades plus 10 chic new shadows and highlighters in buttery blendable formulas with staying power." The palette is a large square with magnet closure and complete with a cardboard sleeve. The palette is so pretty, I love the rose gold writing on the quilted pintuck background design. Opening the palet...

BYS Berries Palette

Image
I have bought from the brand BYS in the past, but I can't say I've actually sought out anything from them. Well, that was until I saw swatches popping up on my Instagram feed of the Berries palette.  It's a 12 pan palette and has a similar vibe going on to the much loved and raved about ABH Modern Renaissance palette. Of course, I do not own the pricier ABH palette, but I just had to have the Berries palette. Taken from BYS - "BYS Berries Eye Shadow Palette features an array of 12 expertly chosen, highly pigmented matte and metallic eye shadows. The 12 piece palette comes housed in a modern, embossed tin. featuring a mirror and 2 dual end applicators." The tin packaging of this palette is really cute, it reminds me of the Naked 2 and 3 palettes. It is a little bulky, but I like it. Let's take a peek inside Oh yes, I'm all about those warm orange and plum tones. There are 3 shimmery shades and the rest are matte. Here's the sw...

It's Skin Power 10 Formula VC Effector

Image
I was once again sucked into buying some bargain products from Ozsale . Part of my order was 4 serums from the brand It's Skin. Being a Korean brand I really wanted to try some products. I couldn't find a lot of information about It's Skin online, but the Power 10 Formula range sounded pretty good. I really wanted to try them all at once, but to get an idea of how each serum performed I restrained myself by using one serum at a time. The first one I tried was the VC Effector. The serum is no longer available on Ozsale, but I found it for sale on Beauty Bay - "A clarity improving skin serum designed for all skin types. Enriched with a blend of naturally derived, active ingredients, the It's Skin Power 10 Formula VC Effector worfs effectively to reduce the appearance of discolouration and dark spots. With a lightweight serum texture its quickly absorbed into the skin offering brightening and lightening effects, whilst simultaneously suppressing melanin prod...
