Empties #4

The first product I finished, was another body butter from The Body Shop, this time in 'Raspberry'. I adore these, their scent, the consistency and their moisturisation. One pot usually lasts me around 3 weeks so they are definitely one of my most used products, hence they keep appearing in these posts! I would repurchase this instantly, although I currently have a stash to work my way through. There are various flavours available for £13 at The Body Shop. 



The next product I used up was a mascara. I always only keep mascaras for 3 months as they harbor bacteria and become dry. This time I tried Maxfactors 'False Lash Effect' mascara, in the 'Clump Defy' purple packaging. This is supposed to be identical to Cover Girls 'Clump Crusher' mascara, which isn't available in the UK. I did like this product, it built up volume well with around 2-3 coats and was intensely black, which I always like. The plastic brush was also nice and didn't tug on the lashes. It is on the pricey side though for a high street product, retailing for £10.99 at Boots (it is currently on offer for £7.99!) I would repurchase it, but only on offer as you can have a high end mascara for £5-8 more. 





My other makeup empty was a Revlon lipgloss in 'Peony.' This is from their Colour Burst line and is a beautiful pink with a golden shimmer. Luckily this isn't overly glittery on the lips. It also isn't sticky, instead it has a nice consistency and really adds a nice shine to the lips. I used to layer this over most of my pink lipsticks. I would 100% repurchase this again and would love to try some of the other shades. They are available at Boots for £7.99, but are currently £5.99 on offer. 


Soap And Glory is an excellent brand and I have just branched out into their hair care range. I have used up a 250ml bottle of their 'Glad Hair Day' shampoo. This is a great shampoo with a lovely fruity scent, it lathers well and really cleans the hair without drying it, plus the shea butter it contains helps to moisturise, so if you skip conditioner, it isn't the end of the world. The packaging, like all Soap And Glory products, is super cute. I would repurchase this again for sure and you can find it in Boots for £5.50, also it is currently on 3 for 2. 



The final empty is a Radox shower gel, which I featured in a recent haul. This is the 'Berry Burst' scent which is lovely and fruity. It lathers well and leaves the skin feeling soft and smooth. I picked this up for the gym and have already repurchased it. Radox shower gel is currently £1 per bottle at Boots.
