I'm on a strict NON buying beauty products until I can use up my stock pile...well unless it's something super amazing then ya just gotta right :D But I NEED to save for photography gear, if you are bored take a little look and see if there is anything you like, Xmas is coming up and art is always a great gift: Creative Images

Okay here we go....

Here is a little pile of my latest empties...and my quick opinion.

*Bath & Body Works-Black raspberry vanilla body lotion

Would I repurchase?

OOOOOOOMAAAAAHHHGAWDDD I heart this sent soo much that hell yeah I would repurchase if they still carry it?? It's not moisturizing but daaaymn it smells GOOD!!!

*The Body Shop-Seaweed Mattyifying Day Cream

Would I repurchase?

OH Yah! I enjoy this for my combo skin, love the smell and it a fairly light moisturizer so I quite like it for oily skin.

*Sally Hansen-Brisk Blue

Would I repurchase?

Have like 3 times now haha. It does chip fairly easy but it's cheap and fast drying.. I don't have time to wait so long for my polish to dry..or I just am impatient more like it lol

First things first lets laugh at this shot LOL I am supposed to be a photographer and this is what I come up with bahahahaha, forgive me I haven't slept much lately.

*Bubs Body Happi- body lotion

Would I repurchase?

Hands down this is the best smelling thing in the entire universe. It is a local company around my area, if it is even still going, I remember talking to her and asking her if she would make a perfume and she looked at me like I was nuts. But its super fruity and soon good I wanna eat it.

*GlamGlow- Tingling & Exfoliating Mud Mask

Would I repurchase?

Eff YAH! This is def the best facial mask I have ever used in my life!!! It's just ridiculously expensive but I heart it and will repurchase one day!!! oh and this was a sample so I supposed I will purchase would be more accurate.

*Annabelle EXpandABLE mascara
Would I repurchase?
I would! I enjoyed the dry like formula as well as the brush, it isn't my HG by any means but I def would use it with another mascara :)

*John Frieda- Fine to Full Blow Out Spray
Would I purchase?
NO didn't do anything for me with my fine hair. =(

*Avon's Skin So Soft -Hand polish

Would I repurchase?

I have to giggle about this because I have been hoarding this container and sparingly using it for like 5 years no lie. Its pathetic but its MY FAVOURITE your hands feel AMAZING after and I can't find it anywhere on the Avon site so if anyone can pleeeeeease tell me!  I would repurchase in a heart beat

*Bath and Body Works- Spearmint 2x Moisture & Summer Vanillas

Would I repurchase?

Yes and already have, I kind of only really use these lately, I probably have about ten in my stash at the moment along with the rest of my lipgloss... yeah I do have an addiction!!! 

*St Ives Apricot Scrub

Would I repurchase?

Always do... I know it wrecks your skin and blahh blahh blahh but my face really isn't all that nice anyways so whats the harm ;) lol

Okay guys if I have a reader out there, what is your latest empties and have you tried any of these?Any faves?

Winter is here and I am quite sad about it. Never have I hated winter so much until this year for some reason….oh I think its because I always hated summer since I didn't have air conditioning in my car but now that I have a new car I say eff winter and bring on the summer!

I honestly have been using Montagne Jeunesse Masks for years and years and years.. Here are some new faves I have been enjoying.

*Dead Sea Mud Spa

Mud infused fabric

*Red Earth Clay Spa

Clay infused fabric

*Green Tea Peel Off

Detox & Pore Cleansing

Does anyone else have a difficult time trying to describe how these masks make your skin feel? I can't explain but they are my go to mask when my skin is in need of some tlc. With this cold weather it's very needed! With the variety they have there is something for everyone plus they are very affordable. You can purchase these mask from most drug stores and Farleyco.ca

Okay is it just me or does anyone else want to eat half the Bath and Body Works products? Twisted Peppermint is effing delicious and I don't care if I choose to smell like a pack of gum, I heart it!

*Twisted Peppermint Body Spray-B&BW

*Twisted Peppermint nourishing hand cream- B&BW

*Batiste Dry Shampoo travel size which came in super handy for my recent trip where I chose to not wash my hair daily. I LOVE the smell too, Blush is my fave <3

*Vanilla Bean Noel -B&BW SO GOOD! I looked last year for this product but they said they didn't have a body spray out yet but thankfully this year they did because I could eat it!

I was so on the fence about WEN hair products but I had to bite the bullet a while back and try it, I still have a bit left of their stuff and am kind of milking it because I don't want to blow more $$$.

*Wen Sweet Almond Mint Re Moist Intensive Hair Treatment. This is one of my top 3 favourite hair masks I have ever used, it makes my hair feel like silk without weighing it down. It leaves it moisturized and feeling healthy. 

*Redken aerate 08- I LOVE this product!!!!! It is a light weight cream I used before I blow dry. Put maybe a quarter size just in my roots and it gives me the most body I have ever had in any product other then the Osis Dust it, but mix those two together and its great!

I doubt anyone will even read this post… I have been very MIA. Life has happened and I have been really out of the blogging world and into the photography world. I know it's just for fun because clearly I seem to fail at everything but I enjoy it. I am working on a new website at the moment but if your bored and feel like checking out anything here is my link =) Temporary Photography site!

ohh man is anyone else hating this winter?? this was my front door a few weeks ago =(

sick hey?

Hope everyone is doing well!!!!

I have the biggest pile of empties I have had in a long time so there will another post soon!

*SIMPLE Smoothing Facial Toner

This was a product I found too close to water for me, I think it would probably work okay with super sensitive skin but for my combo skin this wasn't the best fit with me.

Would I repurchase? Negative. 

*VICHY Normaderm

I bought this on a whim when it was on sale and I was pretty happy with this moisturizer, while it didn't fix my imperfections it did moisturize nicely without a greasy residue. 

Would I repurchase? Yes if the price was good.

*VICTORIA SECRET Pretty & Pure All Over Body Mist

Flipping LOVE this scent. Fruity and girly, my favorite.

Would I repurchase? YES!

*CLEAN&CLEAR Deep Cleaning Astringent 

I seriously don't know why I always buy this but I remember my older sister buying it when I was young and for some reason I always buy it since lol. I don't even know if Astringent is the same as a toner but I always seem to use this.

Would I repurchase? Apparently because I have for years.

*JERGENS Ultra Care Moisturizer

This seems like my go to lotion when I am on the hunt at my nearest drug store, I can't say I notice an amazing difference in my skin after using it but the consistency is a bit thicker and I do find it makes my skin feel nice and soft.

Would I repurchase? Yes 

*BATH & BODY WORKS Peppermint Mini Candle

YUM! This is one of my favorite scents from B&BW I guess it smells like candy canes or gum but I love it!

Would I repurchase? Yes!

* THE BODY SHOP Coconut Body Butter

Who doesn't love this stuff? It smells absolutely amazing! I think this is way too overpriced but if you catch it on a sale it's worth it.

Would I repurchase? Only if the deal was super good, I don't find this give me any better moisture then my Vaseline Body Butter which is WAY cheaper.

*BATISTE Coloured Dry Shampoo-Black

My LOVE! I seriously need Batiste in my life and wish I could find the coloured dry shampoo around here. I found this once at Winners and I purchased 2 bottles and it was over 2 years ago I think. I have been using this sparingly and finally just used the last of it =(

Would I repurchase? In a heart beat!

*L'OREAL Voluminous Power Collagen

Ahh L'oreal I know how evil you are but yet you are my go to mascara brand. This mascara plumps up my thin lashes and makes them noticeable.

Would I repurchase?Sadly yes.

Those are all the empties I could gather together today, i'm so unorganized it's ridiculous.

What are your latest empties?

I have been quite absent from the whole blogging world if anyone really noticed...things get in the way and I just don't have much time for it lately but I personally think its okay to post randomly here and there. If you like reading someones blog you will be ok with them randomly blogging right?

Yesterday me and my bestie went to a bigger city an hour or so away from us to do a little summer shopping. She's pretty much the only person I ever shop with since I am not a huge fan sometimes of clothing shopping but it's always fun with good company.

Here's what I got! =D

 

oh frick these pictures are TERRIBLE!!! Does anyone else have a hard time taking pictures of clothing? I really do. sorry they are so crappy!

 I haven't bought like regular shorts for a while other then the last black pair I posted on here but this year I thought I would stock up. 

Kismet black shorts $29.00 with discount $26.55

Dynamite Denim Shorts $32.90 - a tad expensive but they are sooo comfy!

Apparently shopping took over my senses...

Silver jeans $100.00, $90.00 with discount

BUT they fit nicely and last so long I think it's worth it.

Kismet blue &Grey tank-$24.50 on sale for $11.02

Purple &Pink tank top $6 each from Sirens

 I think I could own a hundred of these plain tanks to layer.

Dynamite Tanks -$9.00 each

 Okay this is where it gets interesting...

We don't have a lot of Bench clothes around here but I freakin love them, the fit and quality is really nice and when my friend spotted this I was in love instantly! I don't really own a light coat like this and everything I own is black so I think this was perfect.

Bench Coat$159.00 on sale for $116.00! I didn't feel so guilty once I learned there was 30% off everything in the store =D

Of course we had to stop at Bath & Body Works, I had a $50 gift card and I spent that ridiculously easy.

2 candles for $30

Wild Strawberry & Pineapple Mango(AMAZING SMELL!)

Buy 3 get 3 free at Bath&Body Works so me and my friend split the cost for the 3 and each got 3 body sprays.

Wild Berry Tulips

Into The Wild

Malibu Heat

Also I FINALLY got my Tweezerman Tweezers from Sephora(we don't have one in my city) and honestly I think it was worth the splurge! $21

 Body By Vi Smoothy-YUM!

Boots Chillin in the Grass

 Checkin out the Boards 

CHICKEN!

 Playing around with my editing apps

 So cute when she lets me take a picture of her

Blahh Weather

Strawberry Pineapple Frozen Yogurt

Longboarding Last weekend

Cotton Candy Lollipop =D

There's my update in pictures. They have been on Instagram&Twitter so sorry if they are old news to you already!

What have you been up to?

 This really looks like an empty haul or something but I think I was on the last little bit of a TON of things!

The best part of finishing up all this crap is that I get to buy new stuff =D

Here is what I used up this month....

 *Pure Divine $2 at dollar store.

Repurchase? Nahh, this packaging tricked me, I was thinking it was Venus, like the razors but it was just no name stuff. It was alright but I wouldn't repurchase.

*LUSH Snow Fairy- MY FAVORITE!!!

Repurchase?Yes I will one day, when it's on sale. It smells soo good but Lush is just a bit expensive for me to purchase often =/

*LUSH Rub Rub Rub Shower Scrub

Repurchase? Nope, This was a gift from my mom and it really took too long to use up, I only finished it up before it expired and didn't like the smell tooo much.

*DERMALOGICA Daily Microfoliant

This is my absolute favorite facial scrub, it's really different because it is a powder that you rub into your face after wetting it. I didn't like the idea at first because it's kind of like using baking soda or something but holy crap does your face feel nice after!

Repurchase? If I wasn't a total cheap ass I would, but Dermalogica is so expensive and it's really only sold at certain spas or salons around here so it's not taunting me to buy like it would if it was at the drug store.

*BATH & BODY WORKS Sweet Pea Body Butter. Surprise surprise!

Love this stuff!

Repurchase? Yes sure will!

*BATH & BODY WORKS Sweet Pea Shower Gel

Repurchase? Probably not, only because I think it's crazy to pay $10 for this bottle, body wash is body wash to me, if it smells good I am sold, and there are a lot of cheaper ones that smell nice.

*JOICO Body Luxe Shampoo

I really do like Joico products, they are cheaper salon options and are usually on sale around here for the 1L bottles so you really can't go wrong.

Repurchase? Only if there isn't Redken on sale.

*GARNIER Skin Natural Fresh Makeup Removing Wipes

Okay so this is kinda cheating... I tried using these up but they kind of dried up since I bought them a million years ago.

Repurchase? Heck no, they don't remove anything from your skin let alone makeup.

*CALGON Epson Salts

Loved the smell of Eucoliptous and Mint but these aren't anything special if you can find a cheaper alternative.

Repurchase? If there isn't a cheaper option.

Thought I was finished?

NOOO I still have more, ridiculous I know!

*BATH & BODY WORKS Sweet Pea Body Butter

*BATH & BODY WORKS Cranberry Cider

*BATH & BODY WORKS Cinnamon Pumpkin

*BATH & BODY WORKS Merry Misletoe

*BATH & BODY WORKS Pineapple Orchid

I would repurchase all of these candles, I LOVE B&BW Candles, they smell amazing!!!

That's the end of my massive empties this month, I think I made a lot of room for my new things =D
