Empties #11


Joico K-Pak Shampoo and Conditioner
I got these free from work forever ago and finally decided to use them. They were actually quite nice. It left my hair soft and easy to mamange and smelt pretty nice. I dont know if id buy them myself but it is a nice shampoo and conditioner.

La Roche Posay Effeclar Micellar Solution
My second bottle of this stuff. This micellar is targeted towards oily skin which I dont have but it works fine for me and is cheaper than the other two they do for some reason. I would buy again, but ive been using Bioderma lately and while I think that works better, this ones easier for me to find.

Revlon Nearly Naked
Im trying to use up some of my foundations and started with this one. I wasn't the biggest fan when I first got this kast year but by the end of the bottle I was surprisingly sad when it was all gone. It gives a nice glow with light coverage, great for my dull pregnancy breakout skin and good for dry skin. I think ill end up getting this one again soon.

Matrix Total Results Amplify Volume Shampoo and Conditioner samples
I was surprised how much I actually liked this. Im not a big fan of the Biolage range from Matrix but the Total Results have been nice from what ive tried. These had a nice smell and made my hair feel pretty nice. It gave some volume but honestly im not overly bothered whether it gave any or not.

Matrix Total Results Sleek Shampoo and Conditioner samples
The only thing I dont really like about these are the smell. Its a kind of herbaly scent which I'm not a fan of, but the product itself left my hair soft, mamangeable and frizz free.

Venus Razor replacement blades
I tried to not use these and had so many cuts from the cheapo razors that I had to go back to it. I hate spending the money on them but they really do get a better shave.

Gilette Satin Care Shaving Cream
This was an okay shaving cream. It smelt awful and didnt leave my skin as smooth as some others ive tried but it got the job done.

I dream of.. Vanilla and Almond Shower Gel and Bubble Bath
I found this brand for a mere $2 at Dollerama and what a bargain. They smell amazing and give nice bubbles in the bath which is really all I use it for. It also makes my skin feel soft after I come out of the bath.

Soap and Glory Flake Away
I was super excited when I bought this after hearing rave reviews about all things soap and glory. I was sadly disappointed after trying it though. It smells awful, and is a pain to use. Its bright yellow which leaves rings of product on the tub and stains everything yellow. However it does work well and leaves my skin feeling soft, but its not worth all the fus. I had it sitting in my shower for months unused because I couldnt atand it that much, but decided to use it up so I dont have to look at it anymore.

Rusk CurlSilk Spray
This is super old and has barely anything left in it. I dont know if they even still make this stuff to be honest. Time to get out of my cupboard.

Bath and Body Works Winter Candy Apple Body Wash mini
This is one of my favourite B&B scents but inforunately its a winter only scent, though its not a christmasy scent in my opinion. Its a sweet apple scent (obviously) and lasts on the skin quite well. Luckily I have a full size of the body wash and moisturiser stashed away.

I havent done an empties post in months so I hope you enjoyed this!

Whats In My Shower



Im always interested in what other people use so I thought id do a most myself. I share my shower so I dont have a lot of room for things and tend to store extras in my room or a cabinet in the washroom. But on my little shelf I have:

Its a 10 Miracle Shampoo Plus Keratin and Miracle Deep Conditioner Plus Keratin
I havent been using these for very long so I dont have much to say about them yet, but they seem to work well with my hair and leave it easy to manage. My only complaint so far is how little you get for the price.

Skintimate Skin Therapy Shave Gel 
I typically go for whatever isnt super expensive in the store but this ones nice because it doesnt make my skin feel dry and works well.

Soap and Glory Flake Away
I was excited about this when I got it but its been in my shower for months. It has an odd scent and leaves bright yellow stains on the shower curtain and a ring around the tub regardless if I use it in the shower or bath. Its almost gone finally and I wont be buying it again.

Venus Breeze Shaver
I go for whatever replacement razors are cheapest, which is why it doesnt match the handle. But honestly who cares about that as long as my legs don't get cut up.

Pick Comb
I use this to comb my conditioner through which makes a huge difference in my hair come time to comb it after getting out of the shower. This is just the only wide toothed comb I had and ive been using it for years.

Olay Ultra Moisture Body Wash
This is a great body wash. Its more like a cream consistency which is nice because it doesn't dry out your skin and I find this great during pregnancy as your skins stretching and going through a lot of changes. On lazy days when I dont want to spend all the extra time moisturising, if ive used this my skin is soft and not dried out with using this alone.

Foot Pumace
Not the most pleasant thing to talk about but as im on my feet a lot for my job, this has been a great thing to have. It helps to keep my feet from getting hard calluses.

This Week Im Loving.. #16


The Body Shop Shea Lip Butter
My lips have been so unbelievably dry and sore this week, ive been applying this stuff like crazy. Its helped a ton I dont know what I would have done without it. It smells lovely and leaves my lips feeling nice and soft.

Mac Cremesheen Glass in Boy Bait
This used to be something I wore a lot but im not the biggest gloss fan. I rediscovered it and decided I needed to use it more before it goes off. Its a really pretty peachy nude colour that just makes your lips look nice. It goes with anything and everything and ive pretty much worn it all week.

Regis Designline Texture Balance Frizz Primer
This is a new product we got in at work not too long ago and honestly im never all that interested in our own line of products but I actually have been quite liking this stuff. You shake the bottle to activate and apply to damp hair and style as usual, or used to touch up on dry hair. I find it realy does help eliminate most frizz when I go to town with the blowdrier and my hair feels softer after.
