February empties

 Not only I managed finishing up products in Feb, its longest monthly list for shortest month😎. 

1. Forest essentials neem & aloe Vera conditioner: I bought this along with shampoo as a kit because individual pieces are not available for sale. After using the sample bottles in a hotel, I liked the shampoo so much. The conditioner is not made either. Conditioners usually last longer than shampoos, however this one got finished only few weeks after the shampoo. It’s not so thick as other conditioners and hydration is quite mild. If I get shampoo alone, I most likely will not purchase this conditioner. However, of let is the only option, I wont mind baying it for the shampoo.

2. Moloccon oil conditioner: this is best conditioner I used so far.it gives right amount of hydration without weighing down the hour and lasts quite long. I am thinking of getting the mask version next.

3. Clinique face wash: this is travel size pack and works as mild make up remover. Perfect for beach vacations where I don't use much make up ( if at all). I need to get another one of this (or similar one) for my rent vacay.

4. L'occitaine almond shower oil: another travel size back which lasted a while as it is not most suitable for all climates. As most of my vacations are to coastal areas, this is not my body wash of choice. Since I had few trips during winter, I managed to finish it up. The fragrance is quite amazing and I consider purchasing full versions for at home use during winters.

5. Avene eau thermale face spray: I lost count of how many of these I went through. Quite a handy one for summers and I always carry one in my bag.

6. Essie nail Polish on the mauve: Essie is my favorite nail product brand and mauve is my favorite nail color. Additionally, this is in treat love & color range which is color and nail care in single product and I like multi-taskers. I wish I bought few more polishes from this range.

7. Ordinary lactic acid serum: these tiny ones are cult favourites for a reason. I wake up to much better looking skin when I use this. I used it weekly once on night before the days I most likely wont have Sun exposure. Though on few occasions when I can't avoid, I didn't notice any heavy tanning. Definitely something I will by again.

I will try to keep of the momentum, though I started purchasing bigger packs now.

Another single month list 😊 1. Lacto Calamine cleansing wipes: these cleansing wipes are quite handy on a warm day outing or hectic day quick makeup removal. These wipes are as effective as the expensive brands.  2. L’Oréal lipstick - spring rosette: after lot of search for medium pink colour, I found this shade. Until then it’s either berry or mauve or barbie doll pinks. Texture is okay - definitely need exfoliation and moisturiser.  3. Khadi Saffron shampoo: my old favourite 🤩. 4. Clinique take the day off makeup remover balm: this one is so bulky that, even with regular use, couldn’t complete even half of the box before expiration. I used it to clean brushes and blenders. It is excellent for both makeup removal and cleansing as well. 5. OPI nail polish - you don’t know Jacques!: I didn’t realise when I bought this that I already have 2-3 bottles of similar Color😊. It’s a slightly dark mauve colour. The bottle is quite bulky and last more than 2 years, so at the end it be...

Most products emptied in this list don't have too many backups - too bad there aren't any makeup products. Nevertheless, I had a good long use of them and enjoyed using them. 1. L'occitane body & strength shampoo: this is like aromatherapy in a bottle making every shower a spa experience. Original price is 19 GBP, but on purchase of 35 GBP, i could buy 3 bottles of shampoo or conditioner from selected rage for 10 GBP each. The same offer was available in Paris too with Euros making it even more economical. The Shampoo is colorless with neither too thick nor too thin consistency. It doesn't lather too much but leaves the scalp clean without making the stresses dry. Still I developed the habit of using conditioner regularly. I bought herbal essence shampoo unwilling to shell out thrice the price to re-purchase this. However, if my luggage permits, I will not hesitate to pick this on my next euro trip. 2. Bumble and Bumble invisible hair oil: this is one of the b...

Nov and Dec Empties

This list have a variety of products - skincare, hair care, make up and nails. Almost half are make up products - I always find it difficult to finish up makeup products😅.  1. Bioderma BB cream: I like make up products from skin care brands and French pharma brands. This one is both🥰. They don't have many shades - just 2 or 3. Thankfully I found a match. As bb creams are, this one doesn't provide heavy coverage. Even though I spend most of day in air conditioned space, I also spend good time walking in sun and this one stays well. It is not currently available in India😔, whenever I get access to it, I will definitely re purchase this one. 2. Mac eye pencil: this my second one and I was hoping to utilise it for back to Mac (which is no longer available😟). It is not too creamy not rigid. it doesn't stay long, however, il don't fudge at corners as other kohls I used before. Since these empties are no longer recyclable, I will by other brands now🤑. 3. Bonjour Paris eye...
