April Empties

Hey all, 

Another month, a few more empties! This emptying kick that I am on is going great, and it feels surprisingly rewarding! Nothing better than knowing you used a product to the last drop; makes me feel as though my money is being put to good use (that's my excuse anyway!). 

The empties of April!

Just your run of the mill cotton facial pads, nothing special here.

Natural antiseptic and antibacterial wipes. Also smell divine!

March Empties

Hey all, 

This is my first ever empties post! 

I have been on a bit of an emptying mission of late, and love the feeling I get when a product is finished. I was quite surprised at the number of empties I accumulated at the end of the month - I would have thought that I went through a lot less! 

I plan on doing this every month for a while! Here are the empties. 


1. Simple Cleansing Wipes x 2 - These are my go-to makeup removal wipes, they don't irritate my skin and remove most makeup easily. 
Repurchase: Yes, already have. 
$6.99

2. Swisspers Cucumber Facial Cleansing Wipes - These used to be my favourites until I found the Simple Wipes. 
Repurchase: No. 
$6.29

3. Swisspers Cotton Pads - My favourite cotton pads for both makeup removal and toner application.
Repurchase: Yes, already have. 
$2.99

4. Simplicite Plant Gel Cleanser - Completely organic, Australian owned and made. Simplicite products were in my skincare regime for quite a while. They are still amazing products, I just felt as though I needed a change and found some products that work better with my skin! 
Repurchase: Not at the moment, maybe sometime in the future. 
$39.70

5. Simplicite One Step Exfoliating Cleanser - A great daily exfoliator! 
Repurchase: No, maybe in the future.

Repurchase: Yes, I have a stock in my bathroom cupboard. 
$6.99

7. Batiste Dry Shampoo in Blush - My favourite dry shampoo, I prefer the 'Blush' scent over the others. Absorbs oil and doesn't leave a residue when brushed out! 
$9.99

8. TreSemme Colour Conditioner Travel Size - Not a favourite, but used it up whilst travelling. 
Repurchase: No. 
$ Can't remember. 

9. Evo The Great Hydrator Treatment - This is a great product, I can't rave about Evo products enough!

10. Lush Sauna Tabs x 3 - Great for a facial steam! 
$2.50 each
