July Empties | 2018

Another month is over, and yet again it’s time to share the beauty products that I’ve finished up/am throwing out from the month that has been. It is another ‘lighter’ month for product usage but I’ve got some pretty strong opinions I’m excited to share !

Nip + Fab Glycolic Fix Daily Cleansing Pads* – this travel size packet is perfect for 2-3 night trips. They’re a little smaller than the normal pads but it’s so handy!
The Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer I just wasn’t a fan of – it was too light a shade for me and the coverage just wasn’t there.
Body Blendz Vanilla Blush Mask + Scrub* – I received a packet of 8 little face mask rubs and it’s such a cute and convenient way to have a creamy mask that’s perfect for travel and doesn’t dry out. I’ve only used one of these but my skin felt super soft afterwards and I can’t wait to see consistent results.
Raww Cosmetics Moringa Lash Mascara* – I absolutely loved this mascara! It made my lashes longer and more defined and I didn’t notice it flaking or smudging throughout the day. I’m really sad that this is used up and I’d definitely purchase it again!
Tatcha Water Cream – I absolutely adored this moisturiser. I used this both morning and night and it worked beautifully under makeup and absorbed into my skin incredibly fast. I didn’t notice any skin irritation and noticed a slight difference with oil production during the day. I’ll definitely purchase the full size of this eventually!
Somerfield Beauty Protein Booster* – I have a review of this coming Monday, stay tuned!
Essano Argan Oil Hair Mask – another love of mine, this leaves my hair super soft for the next three days and I can tell it really helps to nourish my hair long-term. I’ve already repurchased this one.
GlamGlow Super Mud Clearing Treatment – an oldie but a goodie and great for clearing gunk out of the skin – I’m already using my backup.
Tarte Shape Tape Concealer – I purchased this in the shade ‘Fair’ and used it daily for MONTHS until I realised that highlighting under the eyes really wasn’t a look I could pull off! I haven’t used this in forever so it’s time to go – I would repurchase this in the future however not until I can test the right shade for me in person. Fudge Dynamite Hair Mask – originally a PR gifted mask that I’ve repurchased time and time again – I absolutely love how soft this makes my hair and it’s a really convenient size to travel – I had this sitting in my gym bag for ages but recently used the last bits and will definitely purchase again.
Paul Mitchell Forever Blonde Conditioner – by far my most consistently repurchased haircare range, I’ve actually received another shampoo & conditioner duo recently from the brand’s PR team which is super exciting but I’ve spent my own money on this multiple times. The perfect daily conditioner – one of the only conditioners that I don’t need to use a treatment with afterwards to control my dry damaged ends.

Fudge Detox Shampoo – another initially PR gifted item that I’ve repurchased and I can’t seem to find in store anymore! If you can find this in stores then absolutely grab it, it is a WONDERFUK clarifying shampoo. Somerfield Beauty Professional Hair Mask Cap* – again, review coming Monday and you don’t want to miss it!
Tatcha Luminous Dewy Skin Mask – I really didn’t expect to love this as much as I did – and wish I didn’t because these are quite pricey. The mask is deeply nourishing and hydrating on the skin and I woke up the morning after using this looking like I’d freshly used the Dewy Skin Mist – an incredible hydrating treatment that I’ll definitely repurchase one day.
Kmart Makeup Remover Pads – a forever love !
Tarte Eyelash Curler – this curler used to be a vibrant purple.. as you can see I’ve been using it for a very long time! I’m onto using a backup now but this is by far the best I’ve used.
Simple Eye Makeup Remover – my favourite eye makeup remover, I’m already using a backup!
Natura Siberica Conditioner* – I really wanted to love this, but I found the formula SO thick that I could barely get it out of the bottle. The little bit of product I used I did really like and I need to see if their full sizes are packaged better so I can really give it a go!
Daiso Detergent for Puff and Sponge – love this stuff for cleaning my BeautyBlender! I’m already using more backups.
The Body Shop Spa of the World Green Coffee Cream & Grape Seed Scrub – I took these sachets with me when I went to Brisbane and they were the perfect travel size. The cream was good but the scrub was absolutely divine and definitely something I’ll buy when I’ve used what I already have.

And that’s everything for the month! Not a whole lot of items in total – definitely bumped up by the amount of travel sized bits! Any favourites you’ve seen? What products have you used this month that I should try?
