Beauty - Is It Half Empty or Half Full
10:32:00 am
Morning girls, now I know its now the middle of July but after being in hospital for a few days it threw me off track with my posts.
I wanted to start writing a monthly empties post as its one of my favourite reads on other peoples blogs, and I myself get a great sense of achievement when I reach the end of a bottle, it also gives me the great opportunity to repurchase or decide to try something different. This is my first empties post and as I never thought I threw a lot of empty things out over the month but you will find below the ones I remembered to keep.
Batiste Dry Shampoo Tropical - I love dry shampoo and this one especially it smells like holidays and everytime I spray this it takes me back to lying on a beach with a cocktail in my hand.
Impulse Body Spray 'Very Pink' - I always have some impulse in my handbag just for a quick burst of freshness and when I purchased this it was only 99p in Superdrug so a complete bargain. This is my favourite fragrance out of them all.
Pearl Drops 'Hollywood Smile' - This has lasted me a while and I brush my teeth religiously morning and night as you only need a tiny pea sized amount. I didn't notice any major difference in the shade of my teeth using the colour scale included but I continued to use this regardless because it gave me the squeaky clean lick your teeth feeling. It was a bargain from my local Poundland so cant complain.
Abi O Shimmer Tan Boost - I recieved this sample size from Abi along with the Soft Sun Tan. I used up the tan ages ago but this has lasted me so much longer and I only use it to add some shimmer when I'm going out. I would definitely repurchase this as it smells amazing and gives a soft glow not to obvious so I don't look like a vampire in the sun:)
Nivea Soft - I loved this moisturiser! I used it all over my body especially after hair removal as it completely restored the moisture back giving me baby soft results. It smells so fresh and clean and doesn't feel sticky or heavy. This really is the perfect moisturiser I will be repurchasing soon because this little tube didn't last long.
Superdrug Clear Varnish - This is just a simple clear top coat from superdrug that I have had since I can remember it has lasted me well and done it's job. I have not repurchased this one as it is no longer available, but I have purchased the Barry M version and so far I'm loving it.
I have already started my empties bag for July so it will definitely be more exciting and plentiful:)
Lots of Love
