January 2016 Empties Part 1

Hey guys!!!

Time  to talk about some products that I have used up once again! Also once again I wait too long and I have collected a lot of products so I will separate it into two parts. I will show you what I used up and if I will repurchase or not and why?




  • Batiste Dry Shampoo- I decided to try a different kind of the Batiste Dry Shampoo to see if there is a difference. There honestly is no difference other than the fact the other one I have used is tinted and this one isn't. I still love my Batiste! 
  • OAHU Bath & Body Works Body Lotion- I had so many of these body lotions from the last clearance sale I believe that I decided to use them all up. I used up 3 bottles by this point actually I just didn't want to show them all. I do like the lotions, but it is not holy grail status. It is just I love smelling good.
  • La Roche-Posay Toleriane Foaming Cream- This is my everyday twice a day cleanser. So far this has been my favorite cleanser. I did repurchase this product and it is holy grail.
  • R+Co DEATH VALLEY Dry Shampoo- I had never heard of this brand before and when I received it in my Birchbox I was skeptical. I was wrong and fell in love with the product. Maybe one day I will repurchase, but for now I will go the more affordable route. 
  • Oscar Blandi Pronto Dry Styling Heat Protectant Spray- My holy grail heat protectant spray. This will not leave your hair wet once you spray it and it leaves my hair soft after straightening my hair.I will repurchasing this soon after I am done using the one I am using up now.
  • First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream Intense Hydration- My holy grail hand cream. I also started using it on my face whenever I have dry patches. The dryness is gone in a couple of days. I will always continue to repurchase and one day I will buy the big tub rather than the 2 oz one. 
  • Yes to Cucumbers Facial Towelettes- My favorite makeup remover wipes ever. You will always and forever see these in my empties. It doesn't burn my face or my eyes. This removes 90% of my face makeup and I also use these to remove swatches.
  • Laura Mercier Invisible Loose Setting Powder- This was my holy grail powder at the time I used this, but I started using the Translucent Setting Powder and it is a little bit better than this one. I won't repurchase this one, but will keep using the translucent one. 
  • ELF Makeup Remover Pen- ELF has been doing amazing with their products and this is one of them. I love to use this when I mess up my wing liner or need to clean my eyeshadow. This is a holy grail product and I already repurchased.
  • Benefit They're Real! Push-Up Liner- I was supposed to do a review on this liner, but it totally slipped my mind. I threw it away after taking these pictures and I was supposed take a picture of the liner by itself, but that is besides the point. I got this for free when I ordered from Sephora online and I was excited to try it. Sadly it was disappointing and it was too dry for me to work it. I tried different ways and nothing worked.
  • Kat Von D Ink Liner- I will be writing a blogpost on this one and as a sneak peak I do enjoy this product.
  • Pixi Natural Brow Duo- My holy grail brow product! I can have bold brows or natural brows with this product. And it holds my brows in place all day. I will repurchase as soon as I use up the brow products I have now.
  • Manna Kadar Cosmetics Lash Primer- Another product I was supposed to review and failed miserably. My quick review is that it did absolutely nothing for my lashes. Products like these make my lashes fall back down so hard and have no hope of staying curled at all. It also said you can wear it overnight and I did, but no difference on my lashes. 
  • Perfume Sample- I failed at showing which perfume sample this is and I have made it a goal to use up my samples and save up the ones I love so it could be a future purchase. 
  • Clinique Bottom Lash Mascara- My holy grail mascara and it is another product you will always and always see in my empties. My bottom lashes look long and voluminous and lasts all day without running down my cheeks. 
That is all I have to show you for now of the products I used up. What have you guys used up recently and will you repurchase or no and why??

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?? ...

Favorite New York City Restaurants

Hey guys!!! I thought I would do something different on my blog today. I was just on vacation to New York and I have my list of favorite restaurants that I would like to recommend. Some of these restaurants I HAVE to go back everytime I go to New York because it is that good! 1.  Mighty Quinn's Barbeque : If you love brisket then this is the place for you. This place has the BEST brisket I have ever tasted and I always compare any other brisket to this one. So far no brisket has been able to compare to it.  2. Shake Shack: OMG these are the best burgers I have ever had. I especially love the SmokeShack burger it has bacon in it. I love me some bacon. I enjoy their cheese fries and their lemonade. Ever since I tried these burgers I compare them to every other burger place I go to. I haven't found anything better yet. 3.  Hana Japanese Cuisine We recently discovered this restaurant last week when I was in town which I was ...
