I've been itching to get another one of these posts done as my empties have been filling up my drawer!

Herbal Essences 'Ignite My Colour' Shampoo - I've used this a few times before and I only really buy it as it's cheap/on offer. My hairdresser has said Herbal Essences is bad for your hair though, so I might look at other brands for shampoo. But this one does have a really nice smell!

Will I buy it again? Probably only if there is nothing else, you can't really go wrong with what your hairdresser says.

Andrew Collinge Deep Conditioning Salon Treatment - This had been sat in my drawer for ages so I made the decision to use it after I had finished using up the conditioner I was using at the time! From what I remember it worked well enough, but it wasn't something that stuck in my head making me think "I need to buy that again".

Will I buy it again? I doubt it, and I haven't really seen it in shops either (I think I got the packet for free)

Benefit Boi-ing Concealer - I just had to check back through my previous Empty posts as I could have sworn I had shown this one already...but apparently not! Since switching to Nars, this was my go-to concealer. I must have used it constantly for about 18 months. It does what it says on the tin (industrial strength) and lasts all day.

Will I buy it again? Most probably!

Tesco Nail Polish Remover - There isn't much to say about this one, it does what it says. I think I 'borrowed' this one off my Mum though.

Will I buy it again? I've since bought a Sally Hansen one, and they do exactly the same thing!

L'Oreal Elvive Shine Conditioner - This was another product bought because it was on offer, and I do really like the Elvive range. I used to use the Anti-Frizz one religiously in my teens, I can remember seeing the advert on TV for it an immediately going to the shop to buy it!

Will I buy it again? Most probably! (Already using one for highlights)

Wilkinson Sword Quattro Razors - These were rubbish! This was a pack of 4 and they barely lasted any time at all. Usually I can get a good few uses out of a razor when shaving but most of the time I only got one use out of them! I honestly thought this was a good brand...

Will I buy it again? No, I've specifically not chosen this brand for my next pack!

It's that time of the month where I blog about products I have used up! I have added a few more than usual into this month's post as the box was filling up a bit too much for my liking!

Dove Go Fresh Anti-Perspirant Deodorant in Pomegranate & Lemon Verbena Scent - I've been religously using Dove deodorant for a while now as I have found it doesn't irritate my armpits if I have just shaven! I bought this alongside the Original scent a few months ago, I just really like using it for the reason I have given, as there are not many brands I have found that stop the irritation.

Will I buy it again? I most probably will do! (Unless I find another brand that does the job)

Original Source Vanilla & Raspberry Shower Gel - This stuff smells AMAZING! I do enjoy using Original Source shower gels, they always smell so lovely :)

Will I buy it again? Already have done!

Leo Bancroft Ultimately Intense Deep Moisture Mask - I had this lying in a drawer for ages so I thought it was about time I used it up! I didn't use it everytime I washed my hair, I generally use it in between my usual conditioner just to give my hair that bit more moisture.

Will I buy it again? Probably not, I haven't really enjoyed using the Leo Bancroft range, I only really buy if it is on offer/nothing else available.

Superdrug Cranberry & Pomegranate Body Lotion - This was bought for me as part of a gift set 2 Christmases ago, and in summer last year I got into my body lotions quite a bit. This one smelt absolutely beautiful and made my skin feel really smooth.

Will I buy it again? As lovely as it is, I don't usually shop in Superdrug. And I'm not sure whether this is still in stock!

Mac Studio Fix Fluid in NW10 - This was coloured-matched to my skin in store, and I really like the consistency of this liquid foundation. I like to mix it with a moisturiser as my skin can get quite dry around my nose and hairline and it still works really well. I'm going to be saving this empty bottle though so I can get my free lipstick!

Will I buy it again? Already bought!

Barry M Basecoat & Nail Hardener - I think this is the first time I have ever used up a nail product completely! Well, this one isn't completely empty but I can't reach the last few dregs! Also from using it so much as a top coat too the colour isn't clear anymore, and if I had white nail polish on it stained it pink, but that's entirely my fault! It gave a good shine to my nails either way :)

Will I buy it again? Probably, I didn't do too bad out of this one.

I admit, it's been a while with the Empties and they have been gradually building up in my drawer. So here are a few more for you, have you used any and what did you think of them?

Veet Hair Removal Cream - I bought this for 'normal skin' as my skin isn't too sensitive, luckily. I bought it for when I really can't be bothered to shower or run a bath when all I need to do is shave my legs. I don't use this for the underarms as I have found it a nightmare to hold your arms up for so long! It's ok, but I have found it doesn't quite get every hair and I end up with patches that I have to go over with a razor.

Will I buy it again? I already have done, but more so that at the time there wasn't much else in the shop to try!

John Frieda Radiant Red Shampoo - I used to buy this religiously when I first dyed my hair red and it does help hold my colour well. The only problem with this range there is only the shampoo and conditioner whereas the blonde and brunette range have loads more! (which I think is a bit unfair really...petition anyone?) As a result there isn't much more on the market so I'm stuck with this product.

Will I buy it again? I tend to buy whatever hair products are on offer and John Frieda products usually aren't in my local stores, so whilst right now I don't have a new bottle, I will probably have another one in the future.

Collection 2000 Extreme 24 Hour Felt Tip Liner - I have sworn by this eyeliner for a few years now, refusing to try any others! It's only since finishing this one (I am sure this product has been in another empties) that I thought I would broaden my eyeliner horizon. It's cheap and drastically changed the way I did eyeliner, so it will always have a place in my heart.

Will I buy it again? It's a strong possibility - I have a few eyeliners waiting to be used so maybe I will go back to it once I have used them up!

Garnier BB Cream in Light - I got this sample in a magazine I believe so I thought "Why not try it?". It was OK...and that's all I can really say. I prefer my liquid foundation of this - I felt it was too thick and didn't sit on my face very well, but on the other hand I did get a good few uses out of the packet!

Will I buy it? I don't think I will, I just don't feel it was right for my skin.

Benefit Gimme Brow in Light/Medium - As you can see from the picture, I tend to go through quite a few of these! This is the first product I ever used on my eyebrows, and now I can't go back! It not only tidies up your brows but also adds a little tint. So a good all-rounder :)

Will I buy it again? I'm pretty sure I already have another one, but if not then yes!

This post is long overdue...I'm sorry I have been neglecting my blog a bit! (and only posting the weekly songs) I hope to give my blog some much needed love over the Christmas period as I will be off work! In the meantime, here are some more empty products for you!

Mac Mineralize Foundation Loose in Light - I am loving Mac products for foundation at the moment. I actually stopped using this one for a while as I thought it smelt funny, but then I got over it! The colour matches my skin well, but I can't put a heavy amount on as I then look orange. It doesn't dry out the skin on my nose so much either.

Will I buy it again? Already done so! I will be picking up another after my birthday on Friday when I have a bit more money to my name. Also, is it true if you keep hold of so-many empty Mac products and then give them in to the store they will replace them with a brand new product?

George Blush in No. 1 Rosy - I only bought this as I wanted to try out a blusher but didn't want to spend a silly amount on one to find I didn't like using them, so just cost me about £3 I think. I ended up really liking it as you can see, I feel the light pink tones compliment my pale skin colour.

Will I buy it again? I haven't bought it since as I have moved onto a Rimmel one, but I know where to go if I get into a fix and find I have no blusher!

Beauty UK Eye Prime FX - I bought this from my local discount make-up shop as I was desperate for an eyeshadow primer. I was a bit weary as I know the brand is cheap and the products can reflect this but this is definitely one of their best products! My eyeshadow stays on all day with this underneath and it doesn't crease either (which was my main problem).

Will I buy it again? Already done so. I have a different primer to use next but I will compare the two and and decide then.

L'Oreal Everpure Conditioner - I always change up my conditioners so I thought I would try this new one by L'Oreal as it was on an introductory offer in Tesco. It was ok....yes my hair felt quite smooth but what has put me off it that it looks, smells and feels like toothpaste! I don't particularly like the smell of mint and I just constantly felt like I was using toothpaste on my head!

Will I buy it again? I strongly doubt it, the whole 'toothpaste' thing has put me off, but if you like a minty smell then this might be for you!

It's that time of the month again...it's some more of my empties! I've had to put a few more in this month as my box was getting quite full (especially with lots of shampoo and conditioner bottles)!

Avon Bubble Bath in Spring Garden - First up is one of the products I featured in a video when I did a massive haul on beauty products - you can watch that here. It's cheap, smells nice and bubble-wise, you gets lots of bubbles! I do love my baths and I can't have one without some bubbles. Out of the other scents though this is probably the one I least like, but it's still nice!

Will I buy it again? Hopefully the offer will still be on in Avon when I need to get some more bubble bath, and even if it isn't I will probably still order some, I might try out some other scents though.

Leo Bancroft Beautifully Radiant Colour Care Conditioner - Lets get all of the bath/shower products out of the way first! I only bought this because it was cheap in Tesco, and the Leo Bancroft range is usually on offer. It was ok, it made my hair smoother which was the main thing.

Will I buy it again? Unsure on this one, there are most likely better conditioners out there.

Dove Invisible Dry Deodorant - I always buy Dove deodorants as I find them very soothing on my armpits, especially if I have just shaved. I've been using this particular type of deodorant for a few years now and the only problem I ever have is when I start using a new bottle, loads of white powder comes out and makes my clothes unwearable for the day!

Will I buy it again? I probably will, yes,

The Body Shop Coconut Body Butter - I got this a few years ago in a set for Christmas, and because I've never really used body butters or creams until now it's just been sat in a drawer! I love the smell of this one and just The Body Shop body butters in general, they always feel really nice on my skin.

Will I buy it again? I've got a stack of body butters waiting to be used so when I run out, I probably will!

Benefit "Hello Flawless" Powder in Ivory - This must have been sitting in my drawer for a LONG time as I haven't used it in about a year! I found it ok but I have moved over to MAC loose powders now. I do love the little sponges you get in these ones though...

Will I buy it again? It's a possibility, it just depends on when I get bored of the MAC loose powder!

Avon SuperShock Mascara - I can't actually remember buying this so I must have had it as a present from somewhere! I didn't really like this one too much - I just don't get on with Avon make-up for some reason but I thought I would give it a chance. I didn't like the brush and I didn't feel it lengthened my eyelashes, it was barely anything compared to my 'holy grail' Falsifeye mascara (which I featured in my last monthly favourites here).

Will I buy it again? No, I know where much better mascaras are.

I'm back again with another monthly haul of empty bottles and tubs! As with what I said last month, I still have a fair few waiting in my box to be reviewed but here are a select few... otherwise we would be here forever!

Sauflon Synergi Multipurpose Solution - I always get given a few of these as my Mum gets them with her contact lenses prescription and she just has too many to use up! I'm always after bottles of contact lense solution and if it saves me going out and buying some I'm all for trying this! I think it is better than the last brand I had (I think it was Tesco own brand) which stung my eyes a bit, and this one isn't so bad.

Will I buy it again? I'm currently using another bottle of this as it's just 'there', and it helps when I don't have to buy it!



L'Oreal True Match Mineral Powder Foundation - I thought I would try this when I saw Melon Lady use this in one of her Youtube videos and couldn't believe how amazing the coverage was. This was lovely to use as a Spring foundation but as it got into Summer I just didn't feel like it was the right colour for my face. The coverage is BRILLIANT but it also dried out my skin a lot, which was another reason why I stopped using it everyday. I ended up using this on days where I didn't feel like wearing much make-up so I wouldn't worry too much about my skin drying out. Also - the bottle isn't great for transportation, hence the cracks all around it!

Will I buy it again? I loved it to start with, but it made my skin far too dry in the end, so I might if I can't another light-coverage foundation.

w7 Naked Nudes Eyeshadow Palette - I bought this a LONG time ago when I worked at Next as I could get a discount on it. You may think this is only half empty but I just feel like I've had it that long it's time to get rid. As you can see I particularly liked two colours, the others not so much. The two I used (dark brown and mid-brown) blended really well together but I do have other eyeshadows that have a far better consistency and pigmentation.

Will I buy it again? I doubt it as I have so many other eyeshadows that are better made - maybe if I travelled somewhere and completely forgot my eyeshadows and this was available as it is cheap!

Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Sample - I managed to get hold of a few of these as my Mum suggested trying them when my nose was insanely dry and flakes of skin was peeling off left-right-and-centre, even to the extreme where make-up couldn't cover it! I have used one so far and it's ok - I couldn't really see a difference and one sachet lasted me a week. I'm just glad I didn't go and spend a silly amount of money on the full product!

Will I buy it? I don't think so. Maybe the other sachets could sway me but I didn't notice any difference in my skin.

FCUK Cream Up Body Cream & Scrub Up Sugar Scrub - I am SO GUTTED that these have been used up and I can't buy it anywhere! I particularly LOVE the sugar scrub - it smells delicious and has such an amazing texture, it exfoliated my skin so well. I put off using up these for ages as I didn't want to use them up but now I'm really sad they are gone and they are not made anymore :'(

Will I buy it again? If FCUK ever make these again, I will be buying them in the bucketload!!!!!

I originally started doing this on my Youtube channel, however I just don't feel like I am getting to grips with the whole talking-in-front-of-the-camera thing. So I've decided to move the Empties/Empty Products posts onto here! I have a ton of them to get through as I was intending to put it as a video, but here are a select few for now!

Lee Stafford Hair Growth Shampoo, Conditioner & Treatment - I ordered these from Boots online a few months ago as I getting pretty desperate with my hair not growing at all! They all had a bit of a strange smell to them but I just grinned and beared it whilst thinking that it might get my hair to grow again! I don't think it really stimulated the growth, but my hairdresser did say that since using it my hair felt a lot fuller and thicker. Another thing about the bottles is that it is near-enough impossible to get the product out of the bottle without taking the lid completely off!

Will I buy it again? Probably not! I've had nicer smelling hair products...

Avon Naturals Vanilla & Soy Milk Room & Linen Spray - I am SO gutted that I have finished this as Avon do not make this scent anymore! I have put off finishing it for ages as I knew I wouldn't be able to buy it again (if you know me well you will know my favourite smell is vanilla). Alas, it had to be done and I had to use it up so I could start using the new ones I had bought. So Avon, if you ever read this, PLEASE bring this back!!!

Will I buy it again? I would if I could!


Will I buy it again? I doubt it, which is a shame as I used to really like it!

Benefit That Gal Brightening Face Primer - I LOVE this face primer by Benefit, I love the smell, the feel and how it helps my make-up to stay on my face. I first started using this only when I had nights out and events as I didn't use primer before this, but it gradually went into my everyday routine.

Will I buy it again? Definitely - I just need to save up a bit and work my way through Pore-fessional!
Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer - I got this free little tester sachet through ASOS a few months ago and completely forgot about it until it came in the post a few weeks later. I thought I would use it as I had finished That Gal and could try something new. Unlike the former, this one is a see-through primer and for some reason I don't really take to them, and unfortunately this wasn't any different. It smelt a bit funny and felt odd on my face, but I can at least say I tried it.

Will I buy it again? I don't think I will.
