October 2014 Empties

Hey guys!!!

Time for another empties post! I have used up quite a few products recently and I will be showing you what I used up. I will also be reviewing if I will repurchase them or not and why.





  • TRESemme Thermal Creations Heat Tamer Leave-In Spray- This was an awesome heat protectant spray. It was less than $3 and it leaves my hair feeling soft after I straighten it. I won't repurchase this one just because I love the L'Oreal one better.
  • Batiste Dry Shampoo- I LOVE this product it is my holy grail and I was sad when I ran out. This gives me a little volume and really sucks up all the oils from my hair on my 3rd day hair. I will def repurchase this.
  • First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream-  HOLY GRAIL PRODUCT! I wash my hands like 10,000 times a day and my hands get really dry so I like to use this every night so my hands can soak up the moisture overnight! I was sad when I ran out especially since I won't be repurchasing right away. I have other lotions to go through before I do.
  • Biore Deep Cleansing Pore Strips- I do love these strips and I will most likely repurchase these again unless there is a better product out there. Do you guys recommend anything??
  • LORAC POREfection Mattifying Face Primer- I actually finished this a long time ago it was just chillin in my drawer for so long. I don't even remember what I think of this product. One thing I do remember is that a little goes a long way.
  • Boscia Clear Complexion Kit- I had bought this to see if my skin will enjoy these products. The cleanser is gentle on my skin, but the only thing is my skin does get more dry after using this. I did repurchase a full size because it was so gentle, but I might return it and get something else just because I don't really see much of a difference in my skin. The Clear Complexion Tonic I love. I will always keep this in my skin care routine I think. It makes my skin feel fresh and doesn't irritate it. Clear Complexion Treatment is also nice and doesn't irritate my skin. I don't know if I will keep this one in my skin care routine once again I don't see much of a difference with my skin. Clear Complexion Moisturizer I hated. It didn't moisturize me much so I didn't repurchase. 
  • Ulta Eye Brow Gel- I got this as a gift from someone and I did enjoy it. It helped my brow product last all day, but it didn't control my crazy brow hairs. 
  • The Body Shop Mini Coconut Body Scrub- I heard that using a body scrub is good for your skin and when I saw that the body shop was having a sale I decided to try it out. It makes my skin feel so soft after using it and I will def repurchase.
  • NARS Eyeshadow Duo- I got the Stage Beauty duo from my cousin a long time ago and I loved it. I used it alllll up and I would repurchase a different duo, but I can't get myself to spend so much money.
  • Vitamin E Lip Care Stick SPF 15-  I am in search of my holy grail lip balm and this was NOT it! It dried my lips so bad! Instead of helping my lips it made it worse. 
  • Mini Strawberry Body Butter- I enjoyed this body butter it really moisturized my skin especially my really dry areas. I hope to repurchase this one soon.
  • Revlon Lash Potion Volume & Length Mascara- It was a nice mascara, but I would not repurchase this. I still love the Maybelline The Rocket. It was a nice everyday mascara it gave me nice volume, but not too much length. 
  • Make Up Forever Aqua Eyes- I got this sample from Sephora and I am still searching for my holy grail eyeliner for my waterline. This liner didn't irritate my eyes whatsoever, but it didn't last on my waterline all day especially on the days that my eyes got watery. I wouldn't repurchase this because of that.
  • OFRA Universal Eyebrow Pencil- I received this in my June Ipsy bag and ever since I can't stop doing my brows. This pencil lasted me a long time and it was amazing. I am not sure if it is holy grail status just because I want to try out more brow products before I make that decision.
Those are all of my empties. What have you guys used up and will you repurchase it?

Whitening Lightning Color Your Smile Lighted Lip Gloss

Hey guys!!! Have you guys heard of  Jaclyn Hill ?? If not you have been missing out. She does the best make-up tutorials and recently she had a brush set with Sigma which I missed out on cause I couldn't afford it at the time. Then she announced she came out with her own lip gloss through Whitening Lightning and decided to go ahead and get this one even if it was a little pricey, but I saved up money for it. See how pigmented that color is?? This is the color Rose Hill and the website says it is a romantic and feminine hue. It is a beautiful rosy red color and I love it!! This gloss is amazing because first it has a mirror on the side. Just remember to remove the sticker that is on top of the mirror, but I haven't done that yet that's why it looks dirty on the picture. Secondly, when you open this gloss it lights up. So if you need to reapply when you are out and you don't have a mirror and/or you are in a dark place you are covered. Last but n...

Pssssst! Instant Dry Shampoo

Hey guys!!! I love love love the Batiste Dry Shampoo , but before I traveled back in October I had ran out and I didn't have time to buy more. I went into a drugstore and the only thing I found was a Pssssst! Instant Dry Shampoo so I decided to go ahead and try it out.  I honestly do not like this dry shampoo, but I don't hate it. This dry shampoo will get the job done. It sucks up all the oils in your hair and it will stay like that till the next day. I hate the smell of it. To me it turns me off to a product if it doesn't smell good. Also a couple days ago I sprayed some in and someone told me that one side of my hair is white. This is definitely a product that you need to brush it out after a few minutes of applying it to your hair. The white cast that it leaves behind also turn me off to this product. Overall this is an okay dry shampoo. I will be going back to Batiste as soon as this is done haha. Have you guys tried this product?? What do you think?? ...

88 Original Palette by Coastal Scents

Hey guys!!! When I first Started out with make up at 15 I got make up as birthday gifts that year. I was glad I didn't have to purchase any of it myself. Once I got a job a couple years later I wanted to get more and start experimenting with make up a little bit more. It was a low paying job so I was on a budget. I was looking for an affordable eyeshadow palette because I wanted to play around with colors on my eyes. I decided to purchase the Coastal Scents Original Palette:    I actually heard about this palette from my friend Nikki also known as Nix92585 on YouTube.* She was talking about it on her Facebook and I thought "that's a pretty palette" so I decided to go check it out on the website. I love that everything on there is very affordable and I have had this palette for a couple years now and I barely hit pan on one color. It lasts you a long time for such a reasonable price.  Here are swatches:  As you can see these colo...
