[2018] MARCH Empties
5:47:00 PM
Another month another empties.
This is a late post but here they are anyway ....
So these are the beauty products that I finished on March. Although it looked like a lot of products in the picture but I accidentally put on some fragrance empties from February included in the pic. So please don't mind that..
Anyway if you noticed, the products in the picture above seem to have matching colors and this was not intended. I just noticed it when I lined them up like that for pictures. But I actually kinda like how they seem to have matching colors, LOL. The empties seem to have a "yellow-pink" theme this time. And without further ado, here are my March empties :
S K I N C A R E P R O D U C T S
Wardah C-Defense DD Cream
Avene Eau Thermale Extremely Gentle Cleanser
Corine de Farme Gentle Rose Water
Wardah C-Defense DD Cream
This was my first ever DD Cream and I loved it. This contains Hi-Grade Vitamin C that can help brightens skintone, and also +SPF30 for extra sun protection. This also moisturizes my skin enough (although I still use another moisturizer underneath) and gives a sheer layer of color base. So basically this is a glorified tinted moisturizer afterall ;)

Avene Au Thermale Extremely Gentle Cleanser
This was my travel milk cleanser. Although I don't really like using milk cleanser but I did finished this one off because the bottle is so small. This actually has a nice formula so if you love milk cleanser you might probably want to try this one. It doesn't sting my eyes and it does lift off makeup from your skin. Though you also need to do another face wash afterwards because hey, remember "double cleansing"? Yes, it's important to always double cleanse :)

> Replacement : Nothing. Still using up my Banilla Co Clean It Zero Cleansing Balm
Corine de Farme Gentle Rose Water
This was my favorite face toner, especially for everyday use. This gentle rose water is ideal for removing last traces of makeup and dirt, as well as soothe and restore skin comfort. I think this is a really nice toner for every skin type and also great for either morning or night use. You can read the full review here >> Corine de Farme Purity Micellar Water & Gentle Rose Water.

B O D Y & H A I R C A R E P R O D U C T S
Sunsilk Soft & Smooth Nourishing Conditioner
Yardley English Rose Soap
Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure #036
The Body Shop Strawberry Beautifying Oil
Sunsilk Soft & Smooth Nourishing Conditioner
This was a really old product that's been sitting on my bathroom at my parents in law's house. We rarely stayed there anymore so this hair conditioner gets neglected a lot. On our last stay I deliberately used this up so it didn't go to waste. This is an "okay" conditioner. Nothing really special about it, but it does makes my hair smooth and soft to the touch.
> Replacement : Nothing yet, haven't purchased anything to replace this
Yardley English Rose Soap
I still got a couple uses out of this soap until I really finished this off. A triple milled luxury fragranced soap from Yardley London that feels really nice to use in the shower. I also love the packaging and the pink color of the soap bar. I just did a thorough review of this soap, you can read it here >> Yardley English Rose Soap.
> Recommended & Would Repurchase other variant
> Replacement : Bali Alus Yoghurt Goat Milk (with Mengkudu extract)
Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure #036 Plums The Word
I think this has gone bad because the fluid inside seems to change color a little bit. It's too bad because this was one of my favorite nail polish to use. I really love the color and the formula too. You can read the whole review (and see some of the other shades) here >> Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure.

> Replacement : Still trying to use up my other nail polishes
The Body Shop Strawberry Beautifying Oil
Finally I emptied this one! This has been sitting too long on my vanity and I'm glad I finished this off. This was my first dry oil and it was also the reason why I fell in love with dry oils for the body. I prefer using body oil to moisturize my skin compared to the usual body lotion. Maybe because I have normal-to-oily skin and I live in tropical weather so body lotions sometimes feels a bit sticky for my skin. But dry oil absorbed really fast onto my skin without leaving any greasy sticky feeling, so that's why I always prefer body oils instead of lotions. I only use lotions at night because I sleep with air conditioner that sometimes makes my skin dry.

M A K E U P P R O D U C T S
BLP Lip Coat in Caramel Champagne
Too Faced Lip Insurance
Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream Cotton Fit
BLP Lip Coat in Caramel Champagne
My most favorite shade from BLP Lip Coat by Lizzie Parra! This is such a universal shade which I think would look good on any skintone. It has this slightly metallic sheen to it which doesn't show much but it gives an illusion of a gorgeous lip :)

> Replacement : Nothing. Just bought new Laneige Dual Tone Lipstick though..
Too Faced Lip Insurance
This is an old product and one of my favorite lip product too. I have pigmented lips so using this as a base makes any lipstick color pops up on my lips. It acts like a concealer for your lips, so if you have pigmented lip and loves to use many colors of lipsticks then you need this (or any lip concealer) in your makeup bag.

Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream Cotton Fit
This was also an old product and I'm glad I finally finished this off. I got crazy with BB Creams when they were a rage a while ago, and I collected quite a handful of them. But I don't like throwing products away so if the formula still looks and feels good on the skin I would use them up until I finished them. This was a good BB Cream and the Precious Mineral series is one of my favorite from Etude House BB Creams range. You can read the review here >> Etude House BB Cream Cotton Fit.

-------------------------------------------------------------
In total there are 10 products that I managed to empty in March. Not much but I'm glad I emptied some of my products and make ways for newer ones. I also always tried to finish some of the opened products first before I open new ones, so let's see how much can I empty this month (April) shall we?
Anyway, out of the 10 products I finished up last month, 2 of them are sample sizes and 6 of them are full size products, yay! Finishing full size products are something that took me a long time, so whenever I finished a full size products I'm always happy. And 6 of them are not bad either, don't you think? How many products did you managed to empty last month?
Hugs n Kissies,
