During the past month I've managed to use up 5 things and decide to through away one.
First up:
Simple Kind To Skin Cleansing Facial Wipes. I have repurchased these wipes so many times and have been using them for years! They're really good for taking off make up and for after a night out and those times when I can't be bothered with a proper skin care routine (so basically every day haha!)
I don't really know what else to say about these as pretty much everyone I know has tried and liked them. They're good for sensitive skin/eyes and really do get rid of make up so worth a go if you've never used them.
Paul & Joe Moisture Lip Treatment 3.2g. I got this in a set which I got for Christmas 2010 but forgot all about this lip balm and didn't start using it until December 2011. I can't remember the last time I used up a lip balm as I always seem to lose them so end up having several on the go at once. I really enjoyed this but not sure if I'd repurchase as I'm pretty sure it will be out of my price range for regular use.
Rimmel London Fix & Perfect Pro Primer 002 30ml. This is an alright primer but not one I'd buy again as there are better out there (for me at least). I do think its value for money though as its reasonably priced and seemed to last forever! I thought it was dead about 7 times before I actually had used it up. I know if I cut the top off there would probably still be more left in the tube but I'm just a bit sick of it to be honest! (I'm not sick because it was bad, just because I though it would never end and I have other primers to use up and try out).
No7 Skin Rescuer Dry Skin Saviour 50ml. Again another product that was really good value for money (though I bought with a £5 off No7 voucher) and seemed to go on and on! This really sorted out my dry patches on my face during winter. You can use it all over so thats handy! I think I would give it a go again with another voucher.
Soap & Glory iFoam Ultra-Creamy Body Wash 200ml. Another item that I got for Christmas. This really did foam! I loved the smell, orange but not too overpowering, mixed in with grape and the typical S&G smell. I'm rubbish at describing smells so if you've used this and disagree with my description sorry! I think this would be really good for people who like Soap & Glory but don't like their standard smell as its a nice change. I would buy this again (when my shower gel cuts down more!) but I don't think they make it any more? Shame!
Simple Spotless Skin Anti-Blemish Moisturiser 75ml. This is the product which isn't empty but I'm getting rid of. I remember buying this in 2nd year of uni after a lecture in the local Superdrug (hiya Brunswick!). I bought this on a whim as was just browsing. It was new out at the time, and my skin was spotty by my standards so decided to give it a go. I do think it works and is nice, however as I've had it for so long its went off and smells really bad! Its a shame as I thought it was long gone but found it in a random box! It wasn't far off being empty so I don't feel too bad. Ooops!
Overall I don't think I'm doing too bad with this using things up malarkey! I already have about 4 items which I know will be finished by the end of March, so that's pretty exciting (sad I know!) I do have a confession to make; I bought a lipstick! However I'm really going out of my way to wear lipstick on a daily basis, and it was the Viva Glam Nicki Minaj lipstick for Mac so don't feel too bad as the money went to charity. I'm just a sucker for pre-release codes!
Have you used up much in the last month?
