It has milky consistency, removes makeup quite well (even the black Inglot gel liner, which is a bitch and needs some more work to take off). It is aimed at sensitive skin (which I don’t have), but it was very cheap at the time, and I needed a new makeup remover. This is rated among the best TBS products. The Body Shop Aloe Calming Facial Cleanser I have a bunch of others now…around X-mas I got two gift cards for the Body Shop, and every time they have a 50% off sale, I am there hoarding body butters LOL. A very thick and rich butter to hydrate your skin in the winter. Not much to say here….I have previously expressed, even rhymed!, about my undying love for TBS body butters. I use the Missha Strawberry Latte, and also love it. It does not dry the skin out…I use it daily, even twice a day on occasion.Īgain, I have a re-stock of this, so me likey □ Generally, I have a good experience with Korean face wash products, and intend on trying more in the future. Mostly, it is a cleanser, but it contains micro particles, which exfoliate too. The product is not a foam…more like a really gentle scrub/cleanser. This is a Korean face wash, which contains the allegedly good-for-acne-prone skin witch hazel. I repurchased this too □ it is so much cheaper compared to my previous favourite, Gillette.Ģ. If you are afraid of those, this is your shaving foam. The product comes out as a white foam, very fluffy…supposedly it contains Argan Oil, and NO: parabens, silicones, mineral oil. First of all, when I bought it, in April, I didn’t think it would last me 3 months. I didn’t expect to like this as much as I did. I will probably review it later on.Īnd that was it for the makeup products I have used up lately. I am using a Korean makeup base now, the Innisfree no sebum mineral primer. It doesn’t really protect you from shining for too long (4-5h tops…longer on colder days) but then again, what really does?! Foundation and bb cream go slightly better over this base. It definitely does not feel as the more silicone-rich bases…so if you are not a fan of the silicone feel, this may be a good product for you to try. It mattifies, smooths and has a slightly cooling feeling upon application. The Hema makeup base is the first of these types of products that I have every tried. During my next visit to KIKO, I will definitely stock up on this baby! Mine is not completely used up yet, but I can feel that it’s getting there. The colour is really black, the tip of the eyeliner is just the perfect length and width and it doesn’t bend too easily, giving you loads of control when winging it. I love this eyeliner pen! I cannot believe that it only cost me €3,50! It’s definitely better than the Catrice and Essence versions I have tried. The result is very natural, but still somewhat neater-looking brows. And all that, without being too overwhelming. Does that make sense? Anyway, it made all the difference…It fills in nicely the bold spots, gives some colour, and keeps the hairs nicely in place. I started using the very tip of the spoolie, where the most product sits, to apply the colour on the brows, and then comb then into shape. So, that’s what I used it for for a while.but then I discovered another strategy. I just combed it through my brows and it wasn’t doing anything for me, than just keep the hairs in place. The price was around €3,50 (or something in that range, affordable anyway).Īt first, I didn’t get along with this product. It has a mid- dark brown, quite taupe-y colour and comes with a spoolie (just like a mascara). Basically, it’s a mascara for your brows. My perfect in-bewteen solution turned out to be the Catrice eyebrow filler. However, for everyday purposes, I still find it too much and too heavy. It works really well, the colour is great and the final result looks pretty natural. I’ve mentioned before that when I take close-ups, especially for the blog, I do fill my brows and I use the Catrice powder duo for that. My most recent wish was to buy an Anastasia Dipbrow pomade…Thank god, I realized on time that that would be a mistake! I’d spend a lot on something, I’d just never use. On the other hand, I find myself constantly being tempted to buy brow products. My brows and I have an odd relationship….On the one hand, I think they are already full and quite ok-shaped, so there is no need to fill them in. To make it easier, I will split the post into Skin Care and Makeup products. Welcome to the second installment of my “Empties” posts! I have accumulated quite some crap, so let’s not waste any time and get right into it:Īs you see, there is a lot to talk about.
