Product Empties #1

I love reading these type of posts/ watching the videos so I thought I'd do one of my own! The products featured on here are ones I've used up in the past few months or so. I'll do little reviews as I go...enjoy!

 

First up, the Elizabeth Arden Double Density mascara (phew, that was a mouthful!) The thing I like about this mascara was that it has a small wand (this quality would normally be a downside for most people) but I have little eyes so a massive "volumising, lengthening" brush just results in me having a bit of a black, smudgy panda situation! I also like that this mascara is more volumising than lengthening, as I find I can look a bit like a doll with long lashes. Would I re-purchase? I think I might try some drugstore offerings as this wasn't cheap, but if I don't find a better alternative I'll definitely buy it again!

 

Secondly the Neutrogena Pure Glow Summer Boost moisturiser (another long one!) This is a gradual tanning moisturiser for the face. I think I got this in TKMAXX and I believe it's only available in the US :( I really liked this and it gave me a nice healthy glow to match my subtle tan I'd receive from the product I've talked about below. Anyway enough blabbering, I would re-purchase if I could but I think I'll have to try some things on offer from the UK.

 

Next up, the Garnier Summerbody. A lovely gradual tanning moisturiser that gives me a nice subtle colour and soft skin. I steer clear of fake tan because I'm very pale and it looks a bit scary, so this is a great option. I will re-purchase this for a long time to come!!

 

More moisturiser up next (god I get through a lot of this stuff!) and it's the Johnsons Face Care Daily moisturiser. I nice affordable drugstore moisturiser with spf. 15 and suitable for normal skin. It's a great safe daily moisturiser that didn't break me out and gave me nice moisture throughout the day. I'm going to do a bit more hunting and try some other options, but I will be coming back to this one if I don't find anything more effective.  

 

Finally, it's the Atrixo hand cream. Another inexpensive, bog standard product that I think was introduced to me by my Mum. It has a nice light scent and comes in a variety of sizes. I'm not a major hand cream guru so I tend to just buy what's on offer, but like some of the other products mentioned I would happily re-purchase this if I don't find something I love.
