Hey beauties, as this is my first blog post I thought I would do a empties blog, so today I will be sharing with you all the products I managed to finish off and whether I liked them enough to re-purchase them.
I have 2 makeup products and a couple of beauty products.
So let's start talking about the makeup products first.
Revlon Brow Fantasy Pencil & Gel in Dark Brown (price: £6.99)
So I went to the Boots website (www.boots.com) in January and decided to purchase the Revlon Brow Fantasy Pencil & Gel in Dark Brown (price: £6.99). I picked this brow pencil and gel because I really love the Revlon lipsticks and mascaras and decided to give try out their brow pencil. I really like the way its double-sided with a pencil on one end to fill the brows in and then the gel on the other end to set them.
Did I Like It?
The first time I only used the brow pencil to see if it is lasting on its own and then the second time I applied the gel on top of the filled in brows to see if it makes a difference, and holly molly you won't believe that the brow pencil on its own is amazing but you do need the gel to set it else the eyebrows will look incomplete. There is only aa minus in this product and that is you can't finish off the full pencil. I still have some product left but i can't sharpen the end of it so I can't use it.
Would I Re-purchase It?
This brow pencil and gel is the best I have used so far and would definitely repurchase this product. I just wish they changed the packaging so that the sharpener could reach towards the end.
Rimmel London Match Perfection Illuminating Concealer (price: £5.99)
So this was another purchase from the boots website (www.boots.com), they have 3 shades online and it is hard to tell which one will best suit you as you can't swatch it. I was already familiar with the shade I was purchasing as this was a re-purchase for me. My shade is 040 Soft Beige (my skin tone is medium). For my under eyes I first use the
Maybelline Instant Anti-Age Eraser Eye Concealer (price: £7.99) in the shade Nude, and then use the Rimmel Illiminating Concealer on top of it to brighten up the eye area.
Did I Like It?
This is hands down my all time favorite under eye concealer, it not only brightens up the under eye area but also helps cover the dark circles. This product is incredible and highly recommended.
Would I Re-purchase It?
As I said above I was already familiar with my shade therefore I have of course re-purchased this concealer earlier (now it will be the 5th time) so you could just imagine how much I love this product and could never think of not having it in my makeup collection.
Now let's talk about beauty products.
Olay Total Effects 7in1 Moisturiser Eye Transforming Cream (price £:14.99)
This again was a purchase at boots but this time I went in store to buy this eye cream. Mostly there are positive reviews out there on this product, nearly everyone who has tried this says its the best and others should buy it, and thats what made me want to try this eye cream. Olay claims that this eye creme is a 7 in 1 transformation creme and fights the 7 signs of ageing all around the eye area. I used the full container and it took me about 2 months to finish the as you only need a little amount. After a week into this product I just wanted to get rid of it as I couldn't see any changes around my eye area, but I decided to give it a go and see for a couple of weeks. After 5 weeks I was completely sure this eye creme wasn't for me, it wasn't doing anything to my eyes and I didn't notice any difference.
Did I Like It?
I did try to like it but unfortunately it's not for me, I really wish it did something. I feel that there are better eye creams out there and that too for much cheaper.
Would I Re-purchase it?
Definitely NO! As I said it is too pricey and if it isn't doing anything then there is really no point in re-purchasing it. Before this eye cream I was using the
Simple Regeneration Age Resisting Eye Cream (price: £6.99) which is the best eye cream I have tried so
far, it's far more cheaper and works for me. I already went ahead and bought another one of the simple age resisting eye cream, I love it.
I bought the cleansing wipes pack from boots in store when I went to purchase the eye cream. These wipes are good, they are moist and works perfectly for removing your face makeup. It claims to remove waterproof mascara but I feel that I have to use 2 wipes for each eye to remove the mascara, and still the mascara is not completely removed. Now I use the
Garnier Skin Natural Micellar Cleansing Water for Combination & Sensitive Skin (price: £4.99) to remove my eye makeup as it's much quicker, you can also use it for removing your face makeup.
Did I Like It?
I do like these wipes but only for removing my face makeup, I have to use cleansing water for removing my eye makeup. I would prefer using the cleansing water for all over my face and eyes, I think it's much easier to remove my makeup without using 2 different products.
Would I Re-purchase It?
Maybe. I am currently liking the Garnier Cleansing Water, so I might continue re-purchasing the cleansing water instead of cleansing wipes.
This was a purchase from Tesco in store. I always buy roll-on deodorants as the smell lasts longer, and my underarms don't feel sticky or sweaty. I tried a couple of different roll-on deodorants before using this one, and I have to say this is the best deodorant I have ever used. It doesn't make my underarms feel sticky and it is the first deodorant that has stopped my underarms from being sweaty.
Did I Like It?Yes, in fact I love it. This is the best deodorant for sticky and sweaty underarms, and also smells amazing.
Would I Re-purchase It?
Definitely YES! I have used this deodorant for the past 2 years, and this is probably the 20th roll-on I have finished.
That's all the empties for now, I hope you all liked the reviews for each product and feel free to comment below if you have any questions.
