Hi beautifuls! August is over and now we're finally heading into the rest of the year, the soon to be holidays, and cooler weather. I honestly can't believe how fast this year went, even though I've been gone in the beauty world here online a good portion of it (due to personal and health issues) but, we're going to make the best of what's left of it. Today is my August 2016 empties. Sadly, some of the photos did not export over properly so the video that will be edited and uploaded to the YouTube Channel will have more of what my empties were.
Hair Care
Redken High Rise Volume Lifting Shampoo & Conditioner:
I remember talking about this as a favorite back in May (that's how long it's been since my last blog post, oh my) and I finally finished this. It lasted me this long since I don't wash my hair everyday and I used a little bit when I did because it lathered up SO WELL. I was pleased with this set. The smell was very exotic and fragrant and it did give my hair volume.
Redken Pillow Proof Blowdry Two Day Extender:
I don't know how I felt about this. I thought I liked it and then I realized it didn't last that long and I paid a lot for it (even though it was during the Buy 2, Get 1 Free at Ulta) it's normally about $13-15. It did help with oil in between washes but I don't think it pillow proofed anything.
Skin Care:
EOS Shave Cream (Tropical Fruit):
I finished this entire bottle, I can't believe it. Previous EOS shave creams I've had to tose them because they've either made my legs extremely sensitive afterwards or the pump has clogged up on me. This one actually did the opposite; it was nice on my skin, didn't dry them out and it smells great!
Tree Hut Shea Sugar Scrub (Moroccan Rose):
Of all the sugar scrubs this brand makes, this by far might be my most favorite. But then again I'll probably say the same thing about another one one I find. This smells like you're a field of roses and it's so soft compared to the other sugar scrubs I've used and really helps with getting my legs prepped before shaving, smoothing my arms and legs and bottoms of my feet.
Burt's Bees Sensitive Facial Wipes:
I really did like the first pack that I bought but then I started to not like these at all. It took me two wipes to take off my face makeup (I use eye makeup remover for my eyes) and it burned my face. Not so sensitive Burt's Bees.
Pacifica Sea Foam Complete Face Wash
This is an all time favorite. I use this with my Clarisonic to cleanse my face after removing my makeup with my eye makeup remover and makeup removing wipes and this gets any extra that I missed, plus cleans my face very well.
Bath & Body Works Wallflowers (Driftwood Surf, Tiki Beach, Mahogany Teakwood):
These were a huge disapointment. Normally when I get wallflowers from Bath & Body Works, they fill the room quite nicely and it smells good but, this three lasted maybe a week and then burned out and stopped working. Teakwood is an all time favorite and the other two I can't say much since I couldn't get a good scent from them.
ScentSationals Wax Melt (Blackberry Cognac):
This smells amazing! You can defenitely smell the blackberry in this melt and a small hint of cognac which has a sweet smell to it but other than that, a wonderful smelling wax melt. Unfotuntely I only got about 4-6 hours max out of this wax melt which is typical of this brand from my experience. Can't complain for $2 though!
WoodWick Wax Melt (Dew Drops):
I can't remember where I bought this wax melt but, I will never be purchasing this one again. I got about 1-2 hours of light scent from this one and the original candle has a much heavier scent.
