Empties

I've finally gotten around to doing my empties post. Some of this stuff I used up awhile ago but better late than never.

MAKEUP

CHANEL MAT LUMIERE shade 20 Clair 
I love this foundation. It had medium to ful coverage and leave a nice mat velvet finish. The packaging is so fancy too. I will definitely repurchase this one day. 

MAYBELLINE ILLEGAL LENGTH black
I wasn't a fan of this but I don't really like lengthing mascaras. It was abit of a struggle to use up.

LAURA MERCIER SILK CREME FOUNDATION rose Ivory 
This is the second time I have purchased this foundation. I love it. Good coverage. Long lasting. Not a good colour for me all year round though.

MAYBELLINE MASTER PRECISE LIQUID LINER black
I tried to repurchase this but got the wrong one. It's amazing. Easy to use. Long lasting and very black. It taught me how to do wing liner. 

LAURA MERCIER FOUNDATION PRIMER
This is one of my favourite foundation primers. I prefer the hydrating one better but I got this sample in a bellabox.

MAC MINERALIZE SKINFINISH NATURAL medium
My go to powder. Perfect finish. I can't say enough good things about it. 

BENEFIT THE PORE FESSIONAL
I don't really like this primer. I get samples of it all the time and use them but it just doesn't grow on me.

SKINCARE

MODEL CO INSTANT MIRACLE BOOSTER
This is really nice. I would use it again but I wish samples where just a little bigger. Using it more than 2-3 times would give me a better idea of the product.

ESTÉE LAUDER NEW DIMENSION
Why does this have to be soooo expensive. I loved it. Maybe one day if I'm lucky I'll get it. Add it to me wish list. Might have to go get some more samples 😉

SELECT DAILY BALANCE REFRESHING FAVIAL WIPES
These are great. Like $2 or $3 and are very wet. I have gone through lots of these and I will continue to repurchase.

THE BODY SHOP NEROLI JASMINE SHOWER GEL
Smell great. Lathers great. A little goes along way.

ORIGINAL SOURCE SHOWER GEL watermelon and jojoba oil/vanilla and raspberry 
These are cheap and amazing. I would repurchase these over the body shop shower gel.

HAIR CARE

MATRIX TOTAL RESULTS MOISTURE SHAMPOO AND CONDITIONER 
I got these on sale and I would love to use them again. Very moisturising.

NAK AROMA OIL SPRAY
I really should repurchase this. I loved it but hate spending that much money in things.

WEN CLEANSING CONDITIONER
I do not like this product at all. It leaves my hair oily and gross. More oily than before I washed it.

OTHER

GILLETTE VENUS EMBRACE REFILL
I have gone though so many of these. Perfect staple razer. I will continue to buy this.

FUNTIME BUBBLEBATH
Here is my mum product haha bubblebath for my boy. So cheap and works so well.

QUESTIONS:
→ Makeup
Blush or Bronzer - I'm not much of a tanner and I do like my fair skin
Lipgloss or Lipstick - Lipstick last so much longer. I also just prefer none glossy finish
Eyeliner or Mascara - I don't think anyone wears Eyeliner without Mascara??
Foundation or Concealer - just apply a little more foundation. I often don't wear concealer everyday
Neutral or Color Eyeshadow - easier for work
Pressed or Loose eye shadows - Pressed shadows are so much easier to use and not as messy. I alway make a mess!
Brushes or Sponges - I am still yet to try the beauty blender so I'm all about the brushes.
→ Nails
O.P.I or China Glaze - hmmm i can be very slack with my nails so I'm not expert. I will say China Glaze.
Long or Short - Love long nails. I can never keep them all even though.
Acrylic or Natural - I used to do acrylic and gel but they really do damage my nails and are a lot to keep up with. I all about cutting cost. I did love how long colour last on them though.
Brights or Darks - Brights are so fun. <3 pink nails.
Flower or No Flower - no flowers but maybe a nice pattern
→ Body
Perfume or Body Splash - Perfume last longer and make you feel fancy
Lotion or Body Butter - I think lotion is a bit more convenient
Body wash or Soap - I love the squeeky clean feeling from Soap
LUSH or Other Bath Company - honestly I have not tried that many.
