Empties #3 Beauty and Nail Polish stuff

Happy Friday everybody!
The weekend is almost here and I'm looking forward to it! I really wanted to have a clean and tidy house, so I can park my behind on the sofa and just stay there for the entire weekend if I so please. So that means throwing out the garbage... Time for an empties post!

I have a lot of stuff, so let's get started!


Treacle Moon Bath and Shower Gel. I have 2 of these, her lavender story and one ginger morning. Does the packaging remind you of another brand? Yup, total Philosophy ripoff, but still... I love these shower gels! They smell so good and I couldn't stop sniffing them! I normally don't like lavender as a scent, but this smells like a cupcake with only the faintest hint of lavender. So good! My husband loved these too, he used them as bubble bath.

L'Oreal Elvive Hydra krul instant miracle. I showed you my empty shampoo bottle in last months empties post and this is the intensive conditioner that goes with it. I love this stuff and will always repurchase. You apply this to your hair, leave it in for about a minute and rinse it out. My hair has never felt softer!

Bioderma Solution Miscellaire. I think everybody has heard about this particular product and raved about it. I'm no different. This is an awesome product! I use it twice a day, every day to take off make-up and cleanse my skin and my skin has never looked better. Unfortunately, I can't get it here, so I have to take a trip to France to get it... I picked up this bottle (and the one I'm currently using) while I was on holiday and hopefully I will be able to pick up some more this summer. Otherwise I will have to order online and that will cost me dubble if not triple.

Neutrogena Visibly Clear Pink Grapefruit Daily Scrub. Another product I don't have access too here, but picked up in France on holiday. I liked this face scrub a lot, but I am currenlty using another one that I like just as much. It did a great job though and it smelled really nice.

Kruidvat Q10 eye cream. I showed this in my first empties post and raved about it. I still really love it, but the last month or so that I used this, it irritated my eye area a little. No redness or anything like that, but I could feel it burn just a bit and that is not something I want in an eyecream.

The Beauty Bakery Cleansing Whip Cucumber. I love, love, loved this stuff! It's really gentle for my face and cleans it really well, without drying out my face. The only thing I didn't like is the smell. I hate chemical cucumber scents and this reeked of it... I originaly ordered the Watermelon version of this whip, but that wasn't in stock, so they send me this one. I will definitely repurchase this producte, but not this scent.

Lush Lip Scrub Bubblegum. I didn't really care for this scrub... It smelled way too sweet and maybe I'm just not using this right, but the scrub tends to get everywhere except on my lips... If anyone has any tips on this, I'd love to hear them!

L'Oreal Skin Perfection. I love this moisturizer. It hydrates my skin, making it nice and soft and didn't cause me to break out. I allready repurchased and am using my second tub. The third one is waiting to be openend after that.

ROC Multi Correxion 5 in 1 Anti-Age Moisturizer sample. I received this in a beauty box and I loved it. Really moisturizing and it made my skin feel really nice. I will be buying a full size of this after I've finished the L'Oreal moisturizer I'm currently using runs out.



Dolce & Gabbana La Lune. This is one of my favorite scents and it lasted me a long time. I got this bottle from my sister, who didn't care for it, so lucky me!

Essence Studio Nails Better than gel nails nail polish remover with acetone. This was fine, it did the job. Nothing special.

Etos Nail Polish remover with acetone. This is my favorite remover. It does the job quick and easy and it's cheap. This bottle is € 1. I've already bougt 3 more bottles.

P2 hand scrub (I forgot the actual name). This isn't empty as you can see. A friend of mine bought this, hated it and gave it to me to test. I hated it just as much as she did. You have to shake it up to get the oil and scrub particals to mix, but when you shake it, unscrew the cap and try to poor it on your hands, all you get is oil. The scrub sinks to the bottom in half a second. Crap product!

Lush Lemony Flutter. I can't believe I actually finished this, but I did! *proud moment*
I love this, it makes my cuticles nice and soft and the smell... oh boy... I will be buying a new tub very shortly!

Essence nail polish corrector pen. This is what I use to clean up any mistakes I make when painting my nails. Nothing special, but it does the job and it's cheap.

OPI nail polish corrector pen. I used this before the Essence one, but it does the same thing, only I had to pay 4 times as much... won't be repurchasing this.


Miners MAXI Waterproof mascara. Click here for my full review.

Maybelline The Rocket mascara in black. I have a love-hate relationship with this mascara. I love the fact that it seperates my lashes and gives me volume, I don't love the fact that it tends to clump on my if I use more than 1 layer. So I used this as my first layer mascara and used a different one for the second (and sometimes third) layer.

Perfume samples, Kenzo Flower, Davidoff Sensual Essence and Issey Miyake Pleats Please. I liked all of these, especially Sensual Essence. That smelled like pure honey, so nice! I might buy a full size of that one, but the other 2 were ok, but I didn't love them.



And finally, candles! As I said in my little candle haul, I always have a scented candle burning. In the pas mont, I burned a few Yankee Candle votives and a the last of my Bath&BodyWorks candles. I have only 1 of those left and I'm saving that like a crazy person because I love the smell (twisted pepermint).

Yankee Candles:
Sugared Apple: A deliciously sweet apple treat . . . a perfect recipe of juicy apples sprinkled with sugar and vanilla.
Christmas Cookie: The irresistible aroma of freshly baked Christmas cookies is as much a part of the holidays as the twinkling lights on the tree and the stockings hung by the chimney with care. No holiday would seem complete without nibbling on some of these homemade delights. You'll find every delicious note in the buttery rich, vanilla scent of this memorable fragrance.
Christmas Tree: Like going out in the snow to find that special tree . . . fresh, familiar pine with crisp eucalyptus.

Bath&BodyWorks:
Bonfire Maplewood: This cozy fragrance inspired by gathering round the crackling fires of fall combines sweet fig, cardamom, warm vanilla and firewood notes.
Frosted Gingerbread: A warm, spicy scent that conjures up the magical smells of a holiday kitchen. Gingerbread, whipped vanilla frosting, sprinkled with light brown sugar.
French Baquette: The fresh from the oven fragrance of warm baked bread waiting from a Parisian cafe.
Winter: A fragrance that conjures up the moment when glittering icicles and sparkling sbow transform the landscape - notes of pine needles, clementines and winter woods.

That's it, all my trash for the last couple of months! I hope you enjoyed this post and if you read it all: well done, I'm proud of you!

  1. Love seeing what other people use and their opinion of it! I like Clump Crusher better than The Rocket...have you tried it?

    1. That's a Covergirl mascara right? I don't have access to that brand, so I can't try that...
