The next product I have used up is the matching body lotion for the 'Viva La Juicy' fragrance by Juicy Couture. This came in the fragrance gift set I received at Christmas and so was not purchased individually. Just like the perfume, it is beautifully scented and lasts well on the skin, for 2-3 hours after application. I also found layering the body lotion and fragrance helped with longevity. Although this was a lovely, luxurious product, I wouldn't repurchase it simply because of the price it is. Feel Unique sell the same 250ml size for £23.80. If you are interested in trying this product, I would recommend getting the gift set.
My third body product is the 'Mist You Madly' body spray by Soap And Glory. This is a really nice, lightly floral scented product. If you like the 'Clean On Me' shower gel, or 'Hand Food' then you will love this as it is the same scent. Like any body spray, it didn't last for hours, instead it probably lasted around 1 hour. I can't say I'm a huge body spray fan, I actually got this in a Soap And Glory hamper at Christmas, but it was a nice surprise to try a product that I wouldn't usually choose for myself. If I was in the market for a body spray, I would definitely pick this up. The 250ml bottle is available at Boots for £6.50 and is currently on 3 for 2.
A basic product I used up, was the 'Boots Essentials Nail Polish Remover.' This is great at doing the job and so I have repurchased it to many times, that I've lost count. I don't really see the need to spend lots of money on a nail varnish remover, so I stick to this one which is £1 for a 250ml bottle.
Another Boots Essentials product that I have finished is the 'Extra Firm Hold Hairspray.' I have had this on the go for years as I very rarely use hairspray and so I am very happy to have used it all up. This is a 250ml can but is no longer made in this size, and is now available only in 450ml. This product does the job well and isn't sticky, which is something I hate. It also brushes out well, helping to keep your hair clean. For £1.65 for the 450ml can, this is a bargain.
My luxury empty, is my beloved YSL 'Parisienne' EDP perfume. I have had this open for around 3 years and was trying to use it up as I didn't want it to turn before I had finished it. This is a sophisticated and very unusual scent and one that I have loved for years. There is a full description and review in my perfume collection post. I would definitely repurchase this in the future as it is such a lovely scent. The bottle I had was 90ml as it was bought in Europe. You can purchase a 30ml EDP for £43.50 at Boots.
The final empty is a Blistex lip balm. The 'Medplus' formula is supposed to be repairing and help the lips stay in good condition. If you can get passed the menythol scent to this balm, then it is a great product. Not only did it help keep my lips hydrated throughout the day, it helped heal any dry patches. It also was great under lipsticks and glosses, keeping my lips looking and feeling soft. My only fault with this product is the packaging, as pots are really unhygienic when you are dipping your finger into them constantly, so a tube would be much easier. You can pick up a 7g pot for £2.59 at Boots, which is also on 3 for 2.
