Recent Empties #3

October 7, 2014 · In: Uncategorised

empties3-8159573

I’ve been coming to the end of a fair few products the past few weeks, so of course in true beauty blogger style I’ve been hoarding the empties to share my final thoughts! It’s mostly skincare/body products this time around and just one makeup item!

JASON Unscented Naturally Fresh Deodorant
I wasn’t overly impressed with this deodorant, but for me personally it did an alright job! I don’t use deodorant every day (TMI?!) and I hardly sweat to be honest so it’s not hard for a deodorant to work well for me, but if you sweat a moderate amount you’d most likely be better off with something stronger like Schmidt’s (review here) or Soapwalla (review here). I won’t be repurchasing this unscented one, but for the £4.99 price I might consider trying one of the scented versions.

Angela Langford Clean Sweep Cleansing Balm* (reviewed here)
I really liked this cleansing balm and it always left my skin looking calmer and feeling soft. It’s a really high quality product made with 98% organic ingredients. As much as I like this balm, I don’t think I will be repurchasing as I do like to try out different cleansing balms!

Deep Steep Tangerine-Melon Body Wash
This was another one of the gifts that the awesome Liz from wellmeaningbeing got me in the S/S green beauty swap. I love Deep Steep products, especially as their scents are always exactly how you’d imagine! I’ll definitely be getting more body washes from this brand in future.

Lulu & Boo Lavender & Bergamot Bath Soak & Body Wash*
I love Lulu & Boo’s labeling design but I wasn’t crazy about this product itself to be honest. Lavender and citrus scents are favourites of mine, but I’m not keen on this particular blend as it also has cinnamon and ylang ylang. I never tried it out as a bath soak, but my other half really liked this as a body wash and he happily used up the whole bottle! 

Bodhi & Birch Siam Ginger/Camomile Sky Bath & Shower Therapy
These two Bodhi & Birch travel size bottles came in a SoukSouk box a while ago. I was actually quite surprised that I really liked both of these scents as they’re unique and luxurious aromatherapy blends. Mint Thé is still my favourite Shower Therapy, but these are perfect for a spa-like treat and would make great gifts!
Bodhi & Birch Rosemary Chi Himalayan Detox Salt Scrub* (reviewed here)
Another Bodhi & Birch product! This body scrub has received so much praise in the green beauty world and it’s easy to see why. I’ve said in my review before it’s not my favourite scent, but when it leaves your skin baby soft after every use it’s hard not to love this super luxurious scrub!
The Earth Works Cosmetics Virgin Coconut & Lime Body Butter* (reviewed here)
I actually finished this quite a while ago now but didn’t get around to throwing it out as I love the frosted purple glass – I think I might re-purpose the jar somehow! This body butter feels really luxurious, yet still has a much more affordable price point compared to other brands. This particular body butter was a bit too heavy for my skin personally, but it would be perfect for dry skin. I have my eye on a few other products from the TEWC range to try in future! 
Benecos Multi-Effect Mascara (reviewed here)
Last but not least, the Benecos mascara that I finished off soon after reviewing! It’s one of those love/hate products as it’s horrendous to use at first, but once it dries out a bit after a few weeks it works great. The only problem with that method is you only end up with about 3 weeks of actual use before it completely dries up! Even so it’s one of the most affordable natural mascaras out there so I’ll definitely be picking it up again.
Have you tried any of these products before?

One last makeup fave to end 2021! 100% PURE Fruit One last makeup fave to end 2021! 100% PURE Fruit Pigmented Ultra Lengthening Mascara 🌿

My favourite new encounter this year has been with one of the most well-known mascaras in clean and natural beauty from @100percentpure 

I have no idea why I took me so long to try this one, it’s now firmly in my top 5 for natural mascaras! 

If you’re after extra length for your lashes, this mascara absolutely delivers. It also smells like berries, lasts all day and holds a curl too 🙌

Head over to the blog at naturiabeauty.com for my full review and swatches (link in profile)

Of course we couldn’t go without mentioning my all-time fave makeup brand @inikaorganic 😍 I’ve used and loved their products for years now and lost count of the number of repurchases of the mineral foundation in particular!

Captain Blankenship Mermaid Dry Shampoo 🌊
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I briefly mentioned this one the other day, but it deserves it’s own post as one of my favourites this year! 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Dry shampoo is a life-saver on those days where your hair is starting to look a little greasy, but you don’t have the time for washing it. Let’s be honest, I’m going to have even less time for that dreaded hair-wash day come January with a newborn 🙈
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’ve tried a fair few naturally formulated dry shampoos over the years and @captainblankenship Mermaid Dry Shampoo is one of the best! I really love the uplifting scent of rose geranium and palmarosa that lingers throughout the day too.

A favourite this year for an evening cleanse with A favourite this year for an evening cleanse with @nealsyardremedies Frankincense Intense Cleansing Melt

It’s one of those more unique products as it changes through 3 different textures so it’s ideal to highlight for #texturetuesday too!
⁣
It starts off as a gel which then melts into oil on the skin. Then when you add warm water it emulsifies into a creamy milk consistency (swipe to see)!

It’s the loveliest luxurious and relaxing product to use as it smells amazing and leaves the skin super soft too 😊️

Last week I celebrated turning 30 and this was my Last week I celebrated turning 30 and this was my mascara choice for the occasion 🎉 

I’m sure I’ve mentioned before how mascara is one of my favourite types of makeup product! @100percentpure Fruit Pigmented Ultra Lengthening Mascara is easily in my top 5 “clean” mascaras!
