Hi guys!

Welcome to this month’s edition of my empties. I’ve got 13 products to chat about, so grab a cuppa and enjoy the read. For anything that’s popped up before, I’ll keep it short and sweet!

 

Clarins Total Eye Lift

I got this mini in my latest Advent Calendar and started using it the same day. It lasted me almost two months, which was great! I really loved how it felt on my skin. It goes on so smoothly under the eyes and feels really nice and gentle. I’ll definitely be purchasing the full size.

La Roche Posay Pure Vitamin C12 Serum

This is my second bottle of this. Such a gorgeous serum, it has that lovely oil texture but somehow never feels greasy on the skin. It always felt super fresh, and I genuinely enjoyed massaging it into my face each time I used it.

Ole Henriksen Banana Bright

I used this about 2 or 3 years ago and I remember thinking it was such a fabulous moisturiser! It feels so lovely and hydrating on the skin. I also love that it contains vitamin C, such a great ingredient for helping to brighten your complexion. I’d definitely buy this again.

Charlotte Tilbury Invisible Flawless Poreless Primer

My friend bought this for my birthday last year, and I’ve loved it ever since. It works as both a primer and an SPF, which is amazing, you get protection and a gorgeous, glowy base for your makeup. I’d absolutely buy it again. It’s a fantastic product.

Care-Nel Berry Lip Night Mask

My friend bought this for me a couple of years ago,maybe even three! I take ages to get through products because I like to finish them before sharing my thoughts. I really enjoyed this one. It’s definitely a dupe for the Laneige Lip Mask, and I’m using the Laneige one now that this is finished. They perform almost exactly the same. I’d happily buy it again. I think my friend got it on Amazon, but I’m not totally sure.

Huda Beauty #FauxFilter Luminous Matte Full Coverage Liquid Foundation in 220N Custard

When I first tried this, I had a bit of a love/hate relationship with it. I really wanted to love it, but I just didn’t at the start. I put it aside for a while, came back to it later, and for some reason I ended up loving it. It gives the skin a gorgeous finish,not flat matte, but a lovely satin look. I’m not sure if it’s being discontinued, so I can’t say for sure if I’d repurchase, just in case.

Elf Hydrating Camo Concealer Satin Finish in Medium Peach

I picked this up after hearing great reviews. I’d already tried the other Camo concealer and loved it, so I wanted to give this one a go. I ended up really liking it! I found myself reaching for it most weekends, even over some of my high‑end products. I’ve actually already bought another one in a different shade

Aveeno Dermexa Daily Emollient Cream

I originally bought this after I had shingles last year. Yes, shingles… and no, I’m not 100 lol. My skin felt really tight and sore, and my local pharmacy recommended this to help. I used it for about 2-3 months while my skin was recovering, and I also reached for it during winter when my skin got extra dry. It’s such a lovely moisturiser for those really dry days or nights, super comforting and soothing. I’ll 100% be buying this again!

Mrs Glam 10 Second Tan in Dark +

Another quick one — this is my go‑to tan! It gives such a beautiful golden colour, lasts around five days, and the best part… it doesn’t stain the bed sheets. That’s a total win in my book!

Thanks so much for reading, guys! Hope you enjoyed it, and I’ll see you next time.
