The first half of 2016 has galloped past. At this rate, Christmas is right around the corner.
I spent the first couple of months of this year grappling with a bad infection. Things are looking up and I only have scars to heal now. I've finally chugged my way to a 10-step skincare routine. Will post about it soon, including steps and products. First, I have to show you this month's trash - I've actually managed to use up a couple of makeup products!
Scroll down to check out the beauty products I used up in June 2016, and my thoughts on each. And do join in the Beauty Empties Link-up.
Bath & body products:
Cowshed Moisturising Hand Cream
This is a very soft, pleasant cream that saves my hands from chapping. Nice.Repurchase? I recently received another of these from LookFantastic.
Bubble Bath Steam Milk
Delicious-smelling bath powder. Received in a Memebox sometime ago.Repurchase? No. Because...
Kneipp Herbal Bath in Moisturising Lavender
Gorgeous deep blue bath soak that smells decadent. The final work in pampering bath soaks.Repurchase? Yes.
Sally Hansen Moisturising Foot Creme
Nothing special. You can rub any old cream on your feet in lieu of this one.Repurchase? Nyet.
St Ives Naturally Smooth AHA Complex Body Lotion
A lightweight body lotion that inhabited my shower through June. Really nice.Repurchase? Eventually. Lots to use up.
Koelf Melting Essence Foot Pack
Them Koreans make the world's greatest foot packs. One use and your feet are darn perfect in the morning.Repurchase? I have 25. Will buy when I run out.
Face products:
Elizabeth Arden Prevage Night Cream
Was too heavy for my oily skin. Prefer the following product.Repurchase? No.
Aurelia Probiotic Skincare Cell Revitalising Moisturiser
Nice and light. This is actually a day moisturiser but I used it one morning and one evening.Repurchase? Maybe.
Juara Turmeric Mask
Came in an Ipsy bag. There was enough for a couple of uses. Turmeric having antibacterial properties, I used this when my skin felt congested.Repurchase? Other masks in the sea.
Kiehl's Midnight Recovery Concentrate
Took me ages to get through this. It was too greasy and did squat-all for me, so I finally ended up using it on the body.Repurchase? 'Course not.
Mua Fabulous Everyday Star Cream
The product responsible for getting me into Korean skincare, back in the day. This is my third tube.Repurchase? Not now, time to move on.
Ling Skincare Oxygen Plasma Potion
I have NO words for how absolutely brilliant this stuff is. The perfect serum-and-moisturiser-and-treatment if you have any kind of trouble on the skin. Also, the best pre-makeup moisturiser. Review soon.Repurchase? Did during a discount.
Lailly 7 Seconds Aloe Mask
Decent sheet masks with plenty of serum.Repurchase? Nope, long queue first.
Makeup products:
Shiseido Pore Smoothing Corrector
Super-greasy primer. Got some product left, TBH, but I have to bin this. Shouldn't have let the SA talk me into this slime.Repurchase? *Runs to throw up (Sorry. Fact).
StyleX Natural Sketch Eyebrow Tattoo Pen
Like most Korean makeup, this eyebrow colour wasn't very pigmented. I prefer something like Gimme Brow.Repurchase? No.
