Hi guys,

Welcome to this month’s instalment of my empties.  I have another 11 empties for this month so grab a cuppa, a biccie, sit down and enjoy.

Neutrogena Refreshingly Clear Facial Wash

I have been using this now for at least 8 years. I discovered this when I was in the height of adult acne. This was recommended by Sinead (@themakeupchair) on her YouTube channel. I still use this as my first cleanse and if I am going through a breakout I will use this as first and second cleans. I absolutely love this and this definitely helps when I am having a breakout. This is definite repurchase and a recommendation to anyone suffering from breakouts.

Simple Purifying Cleansing Lotion

I featured this in my June empties and it is a must for me for removing eye makeup. As I said I know it’s not an eye makeup remover but it works for me. I leave it on my eye for about 30 seconds and then I cleanse. I normally pick this up in one of the multiples (Dunnes Stores, SuperValu, Tesco) when they are running an offer on it. Definitely one I will continue to repurchase.

The Inkey List Polyglutmaic Acid

I loved this and I recently saw that Sinead @thebeauttruth loves this aswell. It is a serum that gives the skin major hydration and smooths the skin and leaves it so supple and it also helps reduce the appearance of fine lines. I checked and this is available on @lookfantastic for €17.45 but if you use Sinead’s code, you will give it for €13.78. Pop over to Sinead’s page and use the AF link. This is a definite repurchase for me.

Murad Hydro-Dynamic Ultimate Moisture

This was a @carolinehirons recommendation.I picked this up previously and loved it so much so as you can imagine I was delighted that I got this again in a recent @cohorted box and a full size. I used this morning and evening, my skin was so hydrated when using this. A definite repurchase.

W7 Prime Magic

If you have followed me for a while you will know I have watery eyes and I always used MAC (@maccosmeticsuk) Matte Créme Matifiante thanks to @plouise1 and @plouisemakeupacademy for this product. But MAC have discontinued the product so I was told that any silicone primer would work so I went on the hunt and bought a few different ones which didn’t work for me so I was wandering around Boots Bray (@boots) and I found this for €6.49 and decided to give this a try and I am so happy I did. This is great, really helps watery eyes like mine. I have previously tried everything from different brushes, foundations, concealers, liners but this works… I have been using it for 2 months and will continue to use. I actually use this every day. Best €6.49 I have ever spent.

Luna by Lisa Naturally Matte Foundation in Light Plus

This was an @everythingjoloves recommendation and I loved this. It is an oil free foundation that is medium to full coverage that is a matte foundation that doesn’t dry down matte, it dries down in a satin finish. This is a definite repurchase for me. If you like foundations like me, buy this. You will thank me.

Benefit Blush in Gold Rush

I liked this. It was a beautiful peach / gold colour. I actually used this as blush topper when I was going out and wanted that extra sheen. I did look this up and it is no longer available so I guess I won’t be repurchasing.

Benefit Powmade in 3 Warm Brown

This is my only brow product. It is the perfect colour for my brows (matching my natural hair colour). It is creamy, easy to use creating a brow quite quickly. It lasts all day long. It will be the only brow pomade that I will use so please Benefit do not discontinue this product.

Catrice Plumping Lip Liner in Understated Chic

As I said before, I think that this one will appear in my empties either monthly or bi-monthly as it is one that I always have on the go. It is super pigmented and lasts all day and for the bargain price of €4.00. You cannot go wrong.

Ovelle Silcock’s Base

Excuse the photo (that is tan). This is an old skool favourite. I use this when I am tanning, I use this on my elbows and hands to stop the tan from getting mucky looking and also if I am very dry. I had a lil spell of dry legs there last week, my legs look like they were sunburnt so I threw a bit of this on and within 2 days, the dryness had gone. This is available from most pharmacies and is around the €6.00 mark. I already have a new one so I think you know my answer.

Janeiro Bom Dia Bright Cream

My beautiful friend bought this for my birthday last year. I used this previously and loved it and still love it. When you apply, it dries quickly and leaves your skin so hydrated. Definitely a repurchase for me even though it is pricey but it is a lovely treat.

Thanks again for reading guys, hope you enjoyed and see you next time.
