Empties | March 2016
Lush Vanilla Fountain Bath Bomb // This is a simple bath bomb but it's one of my favourites. It's not a show stopper as it fizzes away in the water but I love the vanilla scent. It was out in the Kitchen the other month and I only managed to buy one so it'll be a while before I can use it again.
Lush Shark Infested Custard Bath Oil // I used this together with the Vanilla Fountain bath bomb as the two scents work really well together. I cut it in half so I could get two baths out of it as I thought it would be too oily if I used the whole thing. Half of the bath oil was just the right amount though.
Lush Divination Reusable Bubble Bar // This is one of my favourite Lush products as I love the parma violet scent. It won't be for everyone but I'm glad I bought a couple the last time they were available in the Kitchen.
The Body Shop Olive Body Butter | £14 // I always have at least one TBS body butter on the go and I really love the olive scent. I'm currently using, and loving, the passion fruit version.
Aesop Geranium Leaf Shower Gel | £31 // This came in a set with a body scrub which I've already finished and a body lotion that I'm still working my way through. I really love the geranium leaf scent although I find it hard to describe, it's one of those that you need to smell yourself to be able to understand it. I wouldn't spend £31 on the full size but I would buy the gift set again.
Lush H'Suan Wen Hua Hair Treatment | £9.75 // I sadly didn't manage to finish this hair mask before it expired. I made a mental note of the date it expired but it's a large pot and I think the only way I could have finished it all was if I used it every time I washed my hair which I didn't want to do. I kept it and used it a couple of times after the best before date but the fresh ingredients didn't look too good and it finally went in the bin. I'll be saving the empty black pot though so I can get a free face mask. As for the hair mask itself, it was pretty good but it didn't impress me as much as I had hoped.
Narciso Rodriguez Narciso Perfume | £39 // I can't decide if I prefer this or the pink bottled version but both smell amazing. I'm trying to use up my perfumes before buying anything new and at the moment I am using one from Elie Saab.
Sachajuan Ocean Mist | £18 // I'd say this is my favourite salt spray, that I've tried so far at least, and I'm sad to see it empty. I have a bottle of the John Masters version to use first but I can see myself repurchasing this one pretty soon. It helps to enhance my natural curl but doesn't leave my hair feeling crispy or sticky.
Naked Care Neroli And Cotton Seed Gentle Conditioner // I bought about five bottles of this conditioner when I heard the brand was being discontinued about a year ago now. I think this is the third tube I've been through so I'm going to have to find a new conditioner soon. I really like this one as it doesn't irritate my scalp or face and it is exactly as the name suggests, gentle. It's also moisturising and I find a tube lasts me a really long time. It's a shame it's no longer available.
Modern Apothecary Eucalyptus & Lemon Myrtle Hand Soap // This was a TKMaxx find and the scent was one of my favourites. The thing with these though is that they're almost impossible to find again and I tend to stock up when I do see them.
L'Oreal Volume Million Lashes Mascara | £9.99 // I seem to have stopped trying new mascaras and have just been buying this one from L'Oreal over and over again. If it's not broke, then why fix it? It does everything I want in a mascara and is often on offer.
Clinique Bottom Lash Mascara | £13.50 // The same goes with this bottom lash mascara. It's not the cheapest and I find it dries up pretty quickly but it works and I love it.
Liz Earle Eye Bright | £13.25 // I've probably been through about forty bottles of this over the years and at the moment it's the only eye make-up remover I use. Others irritate my skin and eczema but I have never had any problems with Eye Bright. It also works really well as an eye treatment for when my eyes do feel irritated and sore.

As much as I hate olives in my food, I looooove olive oil in beauty products! That TBS line is really awesome.
