Empties Part I (Face Products)

Hey, guys! I am finally writing an empties blog post. I have been collecting trash (quite literally) for probably over a year and I am very happy to be able to throw everything out now! It took me so long to start a blog even though I have been very interested in blogging, so I am very excited to step out of my shell. 

I have a lot to talk about so let's just get started!

=> L'ORÉAL Micellar Solution 

This is an awesome makeup remover that is more suitable for oilier skins. It removes regular eye makeup pretty easily, but this micellar water would not be able to disolve waterproof mascara. I even find it hard to remove gel eyeliner or longlasting pencil-liners with it. Also, it leaves sort of a film on my face and I always feel the need to rince it off, but I don't have a problem with that. You should always wash your face at night, right?

=> Nivea Soft Moisturizing Cream

This used to be my favourite, go-to face cream. I mean, obviously! I have nothing bad to say about this product. It is quite thick and very hydrating. It has a slight scent to it, which doesn't bother me. I have however started to use a fragrance free moisturizer, that is more light-weight. I would say this is a very good cream for people with dry and more mature skin. I think that it is a little too heavy for teenage skin. 

=> Purederm Nose Strips

I feel like I am the only one who doesn't see a difference after using nose strips. These ones are cheaper, but normally these kinds of products are quite pricey. I used the whole packet and I am not doing to repurchase. For me it's just a waste of money and hope that it would work. Nothing can beat a good cosmetologist session. 

=> Nivea SOS Lip Relief Balm

This is a really nice lip treatment. It's thick and a little tingly, which always makes me think it's working. But it seriously does make my lips very nice and soft. It comes out of the squeezy tube like a clear gel. 

=> Essence I Love Stage Eye Base

A very nice affordable eyeshadow primer. It really does keep the makeup from moving. At the end of the day you would probably get some creasing, but it works great for the most part. This product has some coverage to it as well which is awesome if you have visible veins on your lids. A little bit goes a long way, so it lasted me a long time. 

=> Bourjois Healthy Mix Concealer 52

I love this! It's my favourite liquid under eye concealer. This shade is waay too dark for me, in fact 51 is too dark as well. This concealer covers like a dream, looks super smooth under the eyes, lasts a long time and it's in a queezy tube which makes it very sanitary and easy to use. Thumbs up!

=> Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer

This is a pretty sheer concealer with reflective qualities and very smooth texture. It's great to wear on one of those "no makeup, but still wanna look put together" days, or if you don't have very dark circles. I am not planning on repurchasing, but it was nice to try and definitely a nice quality concealer. 

=> Essence All About Matte Powder

Another one of my favourites! This powder is very finely milled and looks absolutely gorgeous and velvety on the skin. It's not overly matte, but it sets everything in place. I have grown to like loose powders even more than pressed ones. The trick to them is to leave half of the safety seal on, so you get less powder on your floor or table.

=> Rimmel Sexy Curves Mascara

I really don't like this mascara. I just think the brush is very weird and it doesn't do much for my lashes. It really clumps them and I hate that. I have seen it work for other people, but I am not one of them. 

=> L'ORÉAL Voluminous Waterproof Mascasa

I don't even think I need to talk about this anymore. Clearly, I have repurchased it many times and I will keep coming back to it. It's just awesome! Creates volume without clumps, it has an awesome brush, it holds my curl, seperates the lashes and it almost makes them look fluffy. Adore!!!

=> Essence I Love Extreme Volume Mascara

My secret to ah-mazing false looking lashes. This layered on top of the Voluminous makes the ultimate eyelash thickness (if that is a thing lol). I can't even get over how cheap this mascara is, which makes it even better. I love it!  

=> Impala Precise Eyeliner Pen

If you can get your hands on this eyeliner, I highly recommend it. It is very black and the tip dries out slower than any other pen I have tried. It stays on for a long time and it is super affordable. 

=> Essence Longlasting Eye Pencil in Black Fever

I did enjoy this pencil. It twists up, so you don't have to sharpen it. It's very black and pretty easy to apply, not too soft ot too hard. This liner lasts a few hours, but nowhere near as long as my Avon SuperShock or the Impala Silicone pencils. They just don't budge. I like the other colours in the line, too.

And that is Part I of my empties! I hope this was helpful.
