Empties: August 2026

No empties post last month so this is two months worth of things;


Boots Cotton Wool Balls | I seem to go through a lot of these, they are good for removing polish with so would keep repurchasing.
Wild Refillable Cola Lip Balm | Wild fixed the grainy formula on their lip balms, this is smooth and scented of cola. I liked it and it was mositurising and didn't tint my lips at all. Another one I would repurchase if I didn't have many already.
Lip Smacker Sprite Lip Balm | While the formula was fine on this, lemon scented, mositurising and didn't drag and tear my lips. But I had to just get rid of it because it leaves my lips with a weird looking white residue. 


Umberto Giannini Conditioner | I got this as a gift set, but the shampoo made my scalp itch badly which wasn't a problem I had originally. I wouldn't purchase this as it didn't agree with my scalp. This conditioner was okay as I don't use it on my scalp, but still wouldn't repurchase.
John Frieda Hair Foam | I like the foam because one box goes a long way and covers my long hair. The dye does wash out of my hair after a couple of months but it also means there isn't a harsh demarcation line of roots. I will repurchase at some point.
Giovanni LA Hold Gel | This was a strong hold gel, it worked well on my hair and kept the frizz away on curls. I would repurchase but have enough gel to get through first.
JVN Air Dry Cream | I used this as a primer when wearing my hair naturally wavy, it has a bit of hold to it but worked best when layered with a stronger hold gel. It was easy to use too much of this on my hair but I think I worked it out by the end of the tube. I have already replaced this.


Superdrug Sticky Toffee Shower Gel | These shower gels are basic but do what you need them to do. This particular one was very accurately scented of sticky toffee pudding, which was a bit odd to be washing in. I would repurchase from the brand but maybe not this scent.
Lush Lord of Misrule Shower Gel | The scent is identical to the bath bomb, musky and patchouli and a little goes a long way. The scent also really does linger on my skin too which is nice. It is expensive, but I would repurchase it, or at least ask for a gift!

Empties: June 2026

No polishes used up this past month, I do have some dead thermals but I like the colour they have died in so will be keeping them.


Original Source Sugared Plum | Not sure what sugared plum would smell like but this was blackcurrant scent to me, it was okay but don't think I'd repurchase.
Lush Super Milk | I use this as a leave in conditioner, it is light in formula so doesn't weigh my hair down. It it really nicely scented of sweet lemon and it lasts in my hair. I will repurchase.
Lip Smacker Pepsi Lip Balm | This was Mango Pepsi, I liked this, was mango cola scented, moisturising and didn't tint my lips. I'd repurchase if I didn't have enough.
Wild Refillable Warm Cinnamon Lip Balm | Wild fixed the grainy formula on their lip balms, this is smooth and strongly scented of cinnamon. I liked it and it was mositurising and didn't tint my lips at all. Another one I would repurchase if I didn't have many already.
