Today I have for you second post with empties. As I have already mentioned this kind of posts are not going to be published on a regular basis, since I am not able to finish appropriate amount of products within one month only. What you can see below is my "achievement" from November, December and half of January ;) So, let's jump straight into my mini-reviews.
1. Nivea. Volume Care. Shampoo. If you have seen my post about products that I always come back to, you know that it's one of my favourites. Recently, ancouraged by the large amount of positive reviews, I've decided to buy Volume Shampoo by GlissKur. It's kind of good, but I am going to come back to the one by Nivea, for sure. It's quite big, not expensive, has a nice consistency, does not weigh your hair down . Of course, you should not expect spectacular volume, since it's just a shampoo.
It has a beautiful smell, it lathers nicely and it cleans your hair very good. I know that not everybody likes it, because of its SLS in the ingredients, but I find it suitable for my hair type. The hair are not tangled and it's easy to brush them. There is plenty of reviews of this product on the Internet, but if you are interested in my opinion than let me now in the comment, and I'll write my review on this product ;)
2. Aloe Vera. Aloe Gel. I have written about this product more than once. It's a stunner! It's multipurpose. I use it as a serum under my face cream before I go to sleep, as a makeup base, as a scalp conditioner, and before applying my hand cream. You may think that because of this wide application I need to by this product at leat once a month. But it's not true! One packaging lasts for about 3-4 months! If you have not tried it yet, you have my recommendation. The only flaw I can point out, not necessarly of the product itself, but... It's difficult to get. At least in my town. It's available only one pharmacy... In others the chemists had no what kind of product it is...
3. Batiste. Dry shampoo. You have heard about this product from me multiple times. I don't like to repeat myself, so I'm going to just mention in the passing that it's my absolute must have. I need to have it in my vanity case. This version is my favourite. At least from those I have tried. I want to check some others out, but they're always sold out :D Which versions do you recommend?
4. BeBeauty. Moisturizing micellar cleansing water. I guess everyone already knows the product. I use only the moisturizing version, because others irritate my eyes arrea. It's cheap, easily accessible and does the job ;) I don't wear waterproof makeup, so I don't how would it handle it. For me it's sufficient. My only reservation to this product is that it slightly irritates me after the last change in the formula. It feels like my eyes area would be warmed up. However, it's not anything that would bother me very much, so as long as it does not cause any harm I will be still using it.
5. Nivea. Invisible. Roll-on deodorant. It was quite good. It smelled nicely, but I prefer the Garnier one more. It was a gift from my mum, so it would be impolite not to use it ;) But I am not going to come back to it anymore. In my stock awaites my favourite one.
6. BeBeauty. Hand cream. Average product. It moisturizes, but not deeply. It has nice smell, but it's not the most important in this kind of products. Now, I am looking for something better. I decided to buy this one, because I had no idea what other I should choose. If you are aware of any deeply moisturizing and affordable hand creams, please let me know ;)
7. Greenelixir. Argan Oil. It's small, but quite efficient. When it's on sale it's worth to buy a few bottles, because the price then is very attractive. I apply it on the ends of my hair after washing. It does the job, so I am going to keep using it. When my hair start getting used to this one I like to use it interchangebly with the Marion 7 effects oil.
8. Nivea. Lip Butter. This product doesn't have to be introduced. I love it for the smells, efficiency and moisture. I've been waiting for a sale and meanwhile using stick lip balm by Alterra. It's quite good, but the Nivea onces are my favourites. It's my umpteenth packaging ;) Which versions do you recommend the most?
9. Avon. Planet Spa. Nourishing feet and elbows cream. It's already my second packaging. It has quite peculiar smell to it, but I like it. It leaves a slippery layer, taht is way I apply it before going to bed. But it can work miracles. And used with the base of aloe gel it has rescued skin on my feet. I recommend for people who look for deeply moisturizing creams. During winter I tend to apply it on my hand as well. Before going to sleep I've been using aloe gel, on top of that I've benn appling the cream. And in the morning I've been waking up with the softest hands.
10. Wibo. Fixing powder. I've bought it because it's already a legend on the Internet :D Applied on the whole face it have not been my favourite, but it's perfect to set the under eye concealer. I need to buy another packaging, since any other have not managed to keep my concealer in place. The price is low, it's quite efficient and amazingly does the job. The only defect of it is its packaging. As you can see the lid is completely black. It used to have some inscription on it :D But it's not a big problem for me ;)
11. BeBeauty. Cotton pads. Cheap,
easy to get, they don't stratify to much, remove the makeup quite efficiently and do not produce dust. What can you want more? I've got two more packages in my stock. Usually I buy different versions. To be honest, I have no idea what the difference is between the pink and the blue ones. I choose the ones that are first to fall into my hands ;)
12. Emolium Diabetix. Nourishing feet cream for diabetics. I got those samples in my gift from Santa Claus. I have already used one, but I completely forgot that I am supposed to do empties for you, and throw it out. It has strange smell, but it doesnt bother me much. But if you are sensitive about the smell you may not like this product. When it comes to the effect it gives than I have to day it does the job. But I would put it somewhere between the BeBeauty and Avon one. I want get the full version, for sure.
Uff. I maneged to finish the post. There are not many products, but there was a bit to write about them ;) Have you used any of those? What do you think about them? What empties do you have this month? Did you have any gems? And recommend me some good afordable hand creams ;) Please comment on the main post (the one written in Polish; feel free to comment in English).
