June Empties

I can't believe another month has rolled around and it's time for another monthly empties review. I got through six products this month (I know, I'm proud) and it was a bit of a mix of everything; Haircare, Skincare and makeup.

Firstly, I used up my La Roche Posay Anthelios Ultra Sensitive SPF 50 Sunscreen. This isn't my favourite SPF but it does do the job. I wear three pumps of this on my face every day and it has lasted about 3 months. I think the formula is ok it can feel a bit sticky and takes a while to sink in but it isn't my favourite but it isn't a product I don't like. I have repurchased this, because SPF is THE most important part of my skincare routine and when I ran out I knew I could run to Superdrug and repurchase this, because I did not want to go without.

Secondly, I finished my Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation. I cannot remember the last time I finished a foundation! This is, without a doubt, my favourite drugstore foundation. It blends effortlessly, has a lovely medium coverage and is a great everyday foundation. I will absolutely repurchase this, but I have quite a lot of foundations in my collection at the moment, so it will be when I've used some of them up.

Next, I used up my Glossier cloud paint in dusk. This is my favourite cloud paint and it's such a great colour for every look. The rosey, brown toned blush is just something I found myself reaching for more and more. I love this colour but I actually gravitate more to stick and cream compact blushes these days... and I still have three other cloud paints. So it will probably be a long time before I repurchase this one.

Another Product I used up is my Maybelline Fit Me Concealer. I'm actually not the biggest fan of this concealer, It was part of my project pan so forced myself to use it up. I find the formula quite drying and it starts to look odd under my eyes throughout the day (it starts to almost look like ripples). This one I won't be repurchasing and I think the Instant Age Rewind Concealer, is a much better alternative from Maybelline, as it's a lot more hydrating.

My Clinique ID, was another product that I finished in June. One of my favourite moisturisers ever. I use the Dramatically different + moisturiser and green irritation cartridge combination. This is perfect for my dry skin and helped me so much when i was on accutane. I have repurchased this exact combination and I will definitely say this is my holy grail moisturiser.

Finally, I used up my Bumble and Bumble Curl Conditioning Mousse. I've had this for so long and I do love it! It gives my hair amazing volume and it doesn't leave that horrible crunch to my hair. I am currently loving the Amika Full Body Mousse as I feel it gives me slightly more volume. But I do recommend the Bumble and Bumble Mousse, but it's the only mousse I've ever used so want to try a few more before I decide on a favourite.

July Empties

 Ahhh another month another empties blog. I actually got through quite a bit of makeup this month, which is unusual for me as it's usually skincare I crank through.  The first product I used up was my beloved Glossier Futuredew. I didn't realise how much I loved this until it was gone. My makeup feels so much different without this as a base and I do miss it as part of my makeup routine. I have a few other primers to get through but I will definitely repurchase this one in the future. The second product I used was my benefit liquid eyeliner. I did like this liner; it's opaque, the felt tip is quite nice and it lasted such a long time before drying up. I do prefer brush tipped eyeliners as I find with hooded eyes my winged eyeliner always looks a lot more precise than with a pen style. So I purchased the KVD liquid eyeliner instead, but the benefit eyeliner is great just not my favourite.  My third empty is my smash box primer water. I adore this spray, it comes out as a f...

Reviewing Bioderma's Hydrabio Range

If you've followed my blog for a few years, you'll know Bioderma is one of my favourite skincare brands. Their Micellar water is a product I refuse to live without and I've gone through too many to count. I was over the moon when Bioderma kindly sent me their Hydrabio Range* to try. The Hydrabio range is aimed at combating dehydrated, dry, skin, which I'm especially prone to in winter. 1. Hydrabio Makeup Removing Micellar Water Now, Bioderma's Sensibio micellar water is a holy grail skincare product in my collection. Believe it or not, I didn't realise Bioderma did other varieties of micellar water for different skin concerns. I've been using the Hydrabio micellar water for a few days and I do find my skin feels more hydrated and plump, compared to the sensibio one. It removes makeup just as well as the Sensibio micellar water and I find the Hydrabio micellar water to be a little more gentle and soothing. I would definitely repurchase the Hydrabio version in...
