Continuing on from the last Empties Post, I'm back with some more empties, but this time it's skin care! I've really been enjoying my skin care routine lately and have really enjoyed finding some lovely products that really work well with my skin. Some bits I've been using haven't been great, but oh well...
My first empty is this pack of Yes To Cucumbers Face Wipes. I don't remember the last time I bought a pack of face wipes, and I actually won this pack - I used to use face wipes daily, but y'know...Caroline Hirons and all that. Basically my skin care has come on in leaps and bounds. These weren't bad face wipes, but I don't think I'll be buying them again in the hope that I actually stop being lazy and use water and an actual cleanser.
Next up is The Body Shop Camomile Waterproof Eye Make Up Remover. I love this. So much so, I've already bought and am onto my second bottle. I don't use this daily, but it really is great for travelling and using on the days where your mascara needs a little extra help. It needs a shake as it's got an oily layer, but it's amazing at removing your make up - I love the entire Camomile range, and would definitely recommend you try it!
This Nuxe Nuxellence Jeunesse Youth and Radiance Revealing Fluid was a real favourite of mine. Unfortunately for me, this was only a sample size, but I got so many uses out of it. It's a really light weight moisturiser that applies beautifully to skin. It feels really velvety and not at all heavy. I would love to own this again, but at £47 for the full size, it's not something I'll be purchasing any time soon. But if this is in your price range, I'd highly recommend trying it out! There is 20.15% off it at the moment at Escentual!
The Garnier Pure Shine Control Moisturiser was one I really liked at first. It was great before it started to get really cold - it's a light blue formula with a jelly like texture, and smoothes on really nicely. I didn't notice anything spectacular with the oil control aspect, but I did notice how tacky it made my skin feel. I don't think I'll be picking this up again. I also wasn't too keen on the Neutrogena Visibly Clear Spot Stress Control Cleansing Lotion. First up, it's not your typical lotion - it's not creamy, it's a full on fluid. I didn't use this regularly, just in times of need when I thought that something must be able to help me battle my skin - I didn't notice any real action from this lotion, but I guess I was using it irregularly. I just found it to be quite drying, and stripping so my skin wouldn't have liked daily use.
Finally, my favourite from the lot - the Origins Make A Difference Plus Rejuvenating Moisturiser. I can't even begin to explain how much I loved using this, and how gutted I was when it ran out. Firstly, it smells amazing - really uplifting, slightly fruity, but mostly refreshing. It was really light weight, but also really hydrating at the same time. A little does go a long way, so despite the £34.50 price tag, I really would like to pick another one of these up. The pot I had is best suited for combination/dry skin, which was nice on my skin, but I would like to try the Make A Difference Plus Rejuvenating Treatment for combination/oily skin to see how it compares.
What skin care bits have you been loving lately?
