Empties | May 2013

I realise I haven't done any empties posts this year, but I finally decided to start collecting my empty products  this month! 

from l-r clockwise: Soap & Glory Righteous Butter, The Body Shop Strawberry shower gel & body polish, Garnier Moisture match, Rimmel Lash Accelerator Endless mascara, Rimmel Fix & Perfect primer, La Roche Posay Effaclar Duo, B.Pure Micellar Water. 

Soap & Glory The Righteous Butter: I absolutely love this body butter. It's so moisturising and the scent lasts forever. If you put it on the night before, you wake up smelling of that gorgeous S&G scent! Not great if you have sensitive skin, but otherwise give it a go! Repurchase? Yes. 

The Body Shop Strawberry Shower Gel & Body Polish: The Body Shop shower gels are great, some of the scents are just divine. They lather up nicely. I wouldn't recommend the body polish, it doesn't exfoliate enough for my liking, I like a proper scrub you can feel working! Repurchase? Only the shower gel.

Garnier Moisture Match for combination to oily skin: I really enjoyed using this, it hydrated my skin without making it feel greasy or clogging my pores. Repurchase? Yes. 

Rimmel Lash Accelerator Endless Mascara: This is one of the best high street mascaras I've tried for a while. It lengthens, volumises and seperates lashes, and although I haven't noticed any considerable growth to my lashes, I haven't been losing any either. Repurchase? Definitely!

Rimmel Fix & Perfect Primer: This is a pretty bog standard primer, it makes my skin feel smooth. Its nothing special for my oily skin and I can't say it helps keep my make up on any longer. Repurchase? Maybe.

LaRoche Posay Effaclar Duo: Although this isn't the wonder product people hyped it up to be, I do really like the Effaclar duo and use it when my skin gets particularly spotty or greasy. It helps clear up spots and make my pores smaller. Repurchase? Maybe, it's quite pricey. 

B.Pure Micellar Water: From Superdrugs new brand, I didn't really like this. It was oily and made my eyes sting. I've tried better micellar waters. Repurchase? No.
