Empties #10

Seems like my posts are really boring lately, but what can I say? I empty a lot of stuff and I love those posts and it's better than nothing right?

Hair 

#Balea Moisturizing Shampoo Coconut & Peach: Just love the smell it reminds me of Peach gums from my childhood. It is a solid DM product and I would buy it again.

#Balea Moisturizing Conditioner Mango & Aloe Vera*: Not the first time you see this one in this post section. It is a constant love of mine which I buy from time to time. The smell is nice and not too much and it really makes my hair silky and lovely.

#The Body Shop Rainforest Radiance Detangling Spray: I bought it because it smells like blueberries. And this is why I love it. Actually I could not really notice any special effect, so it is kinda a waste of money. But the smell was amazing. No repurchase though.

#GlissKur Million Gloss Hair Mask: It was on sale and it is like all the other silicon bomb hair masks. The hair feels nice for a second but there is no deep moisture. No repurchase.

#L'Oreal Sunkiss Jelly 02 (4x)*: For me a nice way to gently brighten my hair, I can't notice any damage so far. Already back in stock.

Face
#Ziaja Peeling: This is the product I am super sad it's empty. The best face peeling I have ever had from my favorite brand. I hope my friend will hook me up with another one soon. Would definately repurchase it.

#Best View All in one contact solution for soft lenses*: I like the little bottles especially since I dont use contacts every day and like to travel. Nice product and I already repurchased it.

#Ziaja Cleansing mask: Enough for 2 applications. Nice product, would buy it again.

#bebeauty Facewipes for dry skin: The cheapest wipes from Biedronka and still so much better than most other brands I have tried. I only use wipes for travelling but a nice product.



Body
#Ziaja Cocoa Butter Bodywash: Amazing. Just amazing. Super moisturizing and the smell is a true delight. Would buy it again and again and again ...

#Balea Shaving gel Vanilla: Did not really smell like vanilla but I enjoyed the consistancy. I felt like it emptied very quickly why I am going with foam now.

#Balea Golden Magic Deo: I liked the smell, since I use a roll on as well I can't judge the effect on sweat but I would guess it's not so amazing. Still for quick refresh I like those Deos.



Misc
#ebelin Nailpolish remover*: Standart.

#ebelin nature cotton pads: Like them more than the normal ebelin ones but still not the best.

#Lilibe super soft cotton pads*: The best.

#Balea disposable razors*: Travel buddies and solid products.

Empties #9

Balea Vanilla & Almond Oil Hairmask: I kinda liked the smell and even though it is very cheap, the care effect was not really visible. No repurchase.

Banana Conditioner by The Body Shop: I have been loving this line for quite some time but since I dont have a shop near and also other solid products, no repurchase for now.

Balea Oil Repair Hairoil: A solid product but the packaging was a bit annoying. I am trying another one at the moment. No repurchse for now but I would consider it.

Balea Classic Style Hairspray: Solid product but I prefer the glossy and shine version.

Directions Rose Red: Everytime I want a colour boost I go for directions. Great product for a nice price. I would repurchase it.

Casting Sunkiss Jelly (2x): Nice product to lighten up my ombre without damaging my hair too much. Already repurchased.

Alverde Avocado Repair Hairmask: Probably my favorite hairmask so far. I will definately repurchase it soon. Best moisturizing mask.

Garnier Lavender and Rose Shampoo: I love this Garnier series. I really enjoyed the smell after washing my hair and it stayed for a long time. It also nicely removed all of my hairproucts. I would repurchase it but I a afraid they stopped selling it.

Balea Vanilla & Almond Oil Conditioner: Nice and warm smell. Better than the hair mask. I go through Balea Conditioners quite quickly since they are quite liquid, but with a sall price like that I can live with it.

Balea nature shaving foam: I really liked the packaging and also in general I loved the product. So far my favorite foam.

Dove Purely Pampering Body Lotion: Nice sell and good care effect but not my favorite body lotion. Nothing is better than ziaja.

Joanna Shower Peeling Pear: Amazing product! Loved the smell and the peeling effect, would definately repurchase it when I am in Poland again.

Ziaja Shower cream: My favorite brand at the moment did not disappoint me with this product. Super nice smell and very moisturizing. And amazing value for a sall price.

Alverde Clear face tonic: All time favorite, I will probably repuchase it again as soon as I have finished my other face tonic.

Alverde Clear washing cream: A constant visitor in those posts. Love it, repurchased it.

Clinique moisturizer: Too oily for my taste, no purchase.

Ziaja Olive mask: I used it after my skin got very dried out. One package is enough for 2 applications. I just removed it with a cotton pad and left it as a overnight mask.

Ziaja Cleansing mask: Also 2 applications with one package. Nice skin feeling afterwards, not too dry but still cleansing.

Balea Urea Nightcream: In my desperate attempt no remoisture my facial skin which became super dry over the past months. Even though it is a very nice and rich cream it was not rich enough for my crazy skin but in general a great product.

ebelin Maxi Cotton Pads: Also one of the classic products in those posts, but I found a new love when it comes to cotton pads, I will probably show it to you in the next post of this kind.

ebelin Qtips: Solid product, well you know, what is there to say about Qtips?!

ebelin nailpolish remover: Not as good as the Isana one but I just tend to go to DM more often lately. And this works as well.

Parfume Choice by Comma: Nice everyday fragrance I got when it was on sale at DM. I like to change my everyday parfumes.

Parfume Samples Armani Code/Loverdose Tattoo: Armani Code is my signature smell, so I dont need to worship this fragrance more. Loverdose was nice as well, a heavy smell but nice for the evening.

Empties #8 [XXL Version]

I emptied a lot of stuff again, please don't judge me by my cosmetic wipes usage, I had a bad cold and hayfever so I needed an infinite amount. So let's start with the harsh reality!

left Lilibe, right today

left two today, yellow one DM tissues, right alloute tissues

Cosmetic wipes and tissues (6x): I really used up 6 packages, I am shocked. Most of them were highly needed for my running nose since I do not really use the plastic packaged tissues since those boxes are easier to recycel. All of them were good, the best cosmtic wipes are the today ones. 

Bodycare

Isana Shower Peeling Apple blossom and lime: New in stores. If you like peelings you should check out this one, nice fresh smell and good peeling effect. When it is on offer it only costs 99 cent. It is limited edition though, but I would repurchase it.

Isana Med Creme-Oil shower: Was a gift from my grandma. I never payed attention to it in store but it is a very nice product for dry, sensitive skin. There is no real smell to it, more like the scent of the ph neutral wash lotion by Balea. The price is about 1,50€ I think. I would repurchase it but more likely in winter time.

Alverde Bodylotion Stadtgeflüster: I so loved the lemon cheesecake smell! Besides that it was a very thick and rich lotion which needed some time to set on the skin which annoyed me a bit at the start but I got used to it and the effect was so nice that I did not mind it later on. I can definately recommend it, unfortunately it is limited edition.

Fa Cream & Oil Cocoa butter and coconut oil: I love the smell so much, thats why I buy this from time to time. It is a bit heavier than most shower gels I use but I like it. Will surely buy it again some time.

Biotherm lait Corporel (20ml): Used it on a trip, I liked the citrus smell but there was no big effect on my skin. No repurchase.

Biotherm Lait the Douche (20ml): Just like the bodylotion, I liked the smell but my skin did not feel any different afterwards, as if using a 60 cent Balea shower gel.

Haircare

Balea Oil repair Conditioner: One of my favorites, emptied a few times already. Will repurchase it probably sooner than later. It's 1,45€.*

Balea Long & Beautiful Shampoo: It was alright light all the products of this line, nice smell. But did not blow my mind. Still have one bottle of the Shampoo in stock from the DM box. After that i will think about it. It is 1,45€ as well.

Alverde Reapair Dry Ennds Serum: Always a regular empty. Forgot to rebuy it at my last DM visit but I shure will rebuy it at the next, I deeply miss it. Nice product for people with long hair. It is about 2-3€.*

Taft Stylist Selection Volumizing Spray Mouse: I forgot about it for some time but I love it, it boosted the volume on my roots very well and I wanted to repurchase it but it is not in stores anymore. I am using Balea now, but it's not as good as that one.

Facecare

Lancome Visionnaire Yeux Eyecream (3ml): Very sticky texture, did not really help at all. There are way cheaper and better eyecreams. Waste of money. But a nice travel size.

Balea Enzyme Peeling Mask: Love it. Repurchased the other one by Balea, I use it like twice a week, makes a nice skin feel and is a lot easier on your pocket than all the expensive versions. About 2€.

Biocura Multi Intense Serum: You can get Biocura at Aldi, it is a great serum, perfect for oily skin. i would repurchase it if I had not way too much other skin care I have to empty first. it is aout 5€.

Rival de loop oil based eye make up remover: Cheap, works, perfect. Always buy it on offer for 99cent.*

Rival de Loop Exotic Mango Face wipes (small and big package): I thought hey mango sounds nice. But the wipes were really dry and i did not enjoy using them at all. No repurchase.

Synergen Face wipes passion fruit: A lot soft than Rival de Loop, the smell was a bit odd but in general a nice product and the packaging is very cool. But not as good as my all time favorites. They are about 1,50€.

Isana Med Face Wipes: No empties without them. You always find back to your true love! Always stock them up on 99cent offers at Rossmann.*

Nailcare

ebelin Nail polish remover: Good product, which i buy from time to time but I usually go with the Isana one because it is a bit cheaper when it is on offer. This one is 65cents.*

Isana Nail polish remover: My go to remover. Cheap and good. 49 cents on offer.*

essence BTGN top sealer: Also a good friend of mine. Use it nearly on all manicures. Completely dried out. About 2,50€.*

Sally Hansen Insta Dry: What a waste of money, there is still a lot in the bottle but it is like glue for that much money I really was expecting more, the essence one is way better and cheaper!

L'oreal Confettis Nail polish: Also completely dried out, loved it so much but I will not repurchase such a bad quality.

Make-up

Manhattan Clearface 2in1 Powder Natural: I do not know why I bought this since I usually use the normal vanilla powder. I never applied it wet as foundation, but as a poweder it did a good job, still vanilla is the product of my choice. About 4€.

Alverde Brow gel: It did last ages and I am really happy with it. Will repurchase after my Catrice one runs out. Aout 3€.

Urban Decay Primer Potion: I really like it, it is expensive but on my oily lids it is a save helper. I still have the eden version but if this one is empty I would surely make the investment again. About 20€.

Catrice Date with Ashton Eyebrow Pen: Nice ash toned eyebrow pen for small money. Already in use again. About 3€.*

Others

Febreze Night stand Deo: Had it in my DM box, was nice but did not smell very long. No repurchase.

Balea Diamond Dreams hand Soap: Nice smell, good product. Was limited and I like to change my hand soaps. No repurchase.

Iseree Cotton pads (120): What was I thinking? Only used it for nailpolish, horrible pads which loose there shape. No repurchase!!!

Ebelin cotton pads (30): Perfect for trips, and in general good product but as you know I prefer Lilibe.

Lilibe Duopads (60): Those and my super soft ones are my fav's!*

Empties #7

#Balea Professional Long and Beautiful Conditioner: Like all products from Balea professional I am liking this one as well. Nice smell, good price and good care. Would repurchase it.

#alverde Repair hair damage fluid*: I apply it after washing my hair on my dry ends. I love it and I think it helps pretty good to get rid of dry ends. Already repurchased.

#Balea Melon Tango Bodylotion (LE): I like the water melon smell but for me the bodylotion itself was a bit too liquid and not moisturizing enough. But I think it would be perfect for normal skin.

#Yves Rocher Lavender shower gel: I liked the smell. But I would not uy it on my own. Was a nice product but no repurchase.

#Balea Carambola Lambada (LE): Reminds me a lot of Happy by Nivea. I just love the summery smell of fruit. Would repurchase it but I like to vary my shower gels.

#Isana Med Cleansing wipes*: As usual. Love them.

#Lilibe Super soft cotton pads*: Also all time lovers.

#ebelin Maxi pads* (2 packages): Same here.

#Alverde Clear washin cream, SOS serum and face fluid*: Current skin care, very happy with it, all are already in use again.

#L'Oreal Skin Perfection Serum: I liked it as a Make up base and light day cream. But would not buy it again since there are cheaper options.

#Sebamed Eyecream Q10: Can absolutely recommend this one. Probably my favorite eye cream I tested so far. Will probably buy it again after I cleared my stock.

#Isana Med Deo: Very nice product. No alcohol and so aluminium salts. Would buy it again but I have quite some others to finish off first.

#P2 Keratin Base Coat and Remodell Base Coat: Both decent products. They are so thick and sticky that I just cannot use them anymore. Would repurchase but I change my basecoats a lot too.

#Cosmetics wipes Solo and Iseree: Finally my last package of Solo cosmetic wipes (Aldi North), I decided not to use them anymore because the Iseree (Lidl) ones are way better since they are not that thin. My other favorites are the today (Rewe) ones.

#Garnier Hair Oil Heat protect: Loved it but I just use a cheaper one right now. But I would recommend it.

#Alverde Clear toner*: Also true love and every day beauty product.

#Balea PH 5 Lotion*: Every day in use. Already repurchased.

#L'Oreal Age Defense Concealer 03 fair*: I lost the lid so I removed the sponge and used it up like this which actually is more hygenic and you do not need so much product. I really love the concealer and I have a new one in stock otherwise I would buy it again. But first I will finish m other open concealers.

#Satessa wet wipes: I like them to quickly remove make up from my hands etc. I have to say the ebelin ones were much better, and I will buy them again not the Satessa (Aldi) ones.

#Balea Colour Gloss 2 minute hairmask: I was not sure if I would include this here since it is not really empty. I used it once as a mask but it did not do anything for me so I decided after my conditioner went empty, to use it as a conditioner. It hjust dried my hair out even more. So decided to just throw it away. Would never buy this again. My first really disappointing hair product by Balea.

Empties #6

#L'Oreal Ever riche Shampoo & Conditioner: I liked the smell at first, it is very warm and kind of a wintery smell, but it started to annoy me after a few uses. The Shampoo is way to rich for me, I had to wash my hair a lot more often than with the Balea Shampoo. The Comditioner is fine but not better than the Balea ones for 65 cents. So all in all no rebuy here, what a waste of money.

#Balea Refreshing Shampoo: Especially after using the L'Oreal one I learned how much I love this one. Makes the hair light and fluffy and has a nice herbal scent. Already in my stock again.*

#Balea Silk Shine Conditioner: In general as good as all the other Balea conditioners but the smell was really not my thing. No rebuy of this exact smell but in general I will always be a fan of the Balea conditioners.

#Tony and Guy Leavi in Conditioner: I enjoyed using it very much, the smell is gorgeous but for it being kind of pricy I do not really see a huge difference to e.g. my Balea hair oil, so no rebuy for now. It lasted for quite a while I have to add.

#Gliss Kur Repair leave in spray: I like them so just fresh up my hair a bit or make a bit easier to comb through. I always vary with which one I bu at the moment I have the colour protect one. But in general always a rebuy.*

#Phyto 7: A very much hyped product I believe. Well I used it daily in dry hair before going to sleep and I think I noticed an improvement. Anyway I used it up quite quickly since my hair so so thick. Consodering the price this is very pricy if I need that much. So for now, no repurchase.

#Balea Shower gel with oil pearls apple blossom: A nice fresh smell, nice skin feel. Since I still have loads of shower stuff no rebuy but I might go for it again when I need one.

#The Body Shop Moringa shower gel: WHAT A SMELL! So levely enjoyed every use of it. But I would not really spend so much money on a shower gel, so unless it would be a gift, no new bottle will be in my ahower anytime soon. But if you don't mind the price, you should try it!

#Isana Body Mouse Bamboo milk and Lotus: I already emtied this before, so I still think it is a great moisturizing product. They don't have it in stores anymore but I hope they bring out the same product with a new smell.*

#Balea Pearl magic Bodylotion: A winter limited edition but the smell is not wintery it all. I love it so much. Lucky enough I could buy one more in a DM yesterday, they still had some winter products left!*

#Balea in Shower lotion for dry skin: Way better than Nivea, nice thick texture. I am currently using my DM box Nivea one but if I would have to buy one, would be this one.

#Rival de Loop waterproof Eye make up remover: Go to product. Always repurchase.*

#Isana Med face wipes: Same here. Holy grail.*

#La Roche Posay Toleriane: Nice product for non waterproof eye make up. But my Rival de Loop one works just fine as well and is way cheaper. No rebuy.

#Alverde SOS serum healing earth: So nice for applying on bad spots on my face. The next day I notice a huge improvement. Already repurchased.*

#Rival de Loop Fruit dream toner: Nice smell, very good for sensitive skin, I know they don't have it in stores anymore but there is a berry scented one now. I want to use up all my toners but afterwards I might come back to this brand.

#Catrice Infinite Matt Foundation 010: Love it! Already repurchased it, still I have to use up my open products first.*

#Borjouis Healthy Mix Serum 010: Also such a great product, sadly not available here i my part of Germany but I will buy it again as soon as I am in Poland or Czech Republic.

#Catrice the giant Mascara wp.: Makes a nice result. But I switched to the Rocket Volume by Maybelline, so no rebuy anymore.

#Maybelline The Falsies: One of the best Mascaras ever, if I ever need a new non waterpoof Mascara, I will buy this one.

#P2 Perfect face Base: Ok product, still have one back up, not in stores anymore.

#essence BTGN top coat: essence brought it back and I am so happy Best top coat.*

#Balea 3 blade disposable razors: I think they are the best disposable razors from a drugstore brand (Wilkonson is better) , since they are a lot safer than the 2 blade ones. Will surely rebuy them soon.*

#Lilibe Maxi Pads and Super soft cotton pads: The maxi pads were not very good, I do prefer the Dm ones. But the super soft ones are as you already know my favorites. Already in use again.

#Mexx Black Parfume: My favorite every day smell. Will buy it again soon, I am alreading saving payback points.

#Qtips: Say what you want those are the best. The cotton stays where it is supposed to. Already rebought.*

#Isana Nail polish remover with a sponge: So easy (except sand nailpolishes), love it. I might test the P2 one or the essence one soon.

#Isana Lotus and Bamboo milk hand soap: As you can see I loved this range. The soap did not disappoint as well, sadly I will not be able to repurchase it.

The left 2 ones are Iseree, the lilac one was supposed to be with smell but I did not smell anything. The general Iseree cosmetic tissues are my favorite. The lilibe ones were way too thin and the solo ones on the right as well. Since the hay fever season started it is very important for me that they are not too thin! So Iseree (Lidl brand) is the one!*

DM Box April + Latest Shopping Babies

So yesterday I picked up my DM Box for this month, the last for now, well I hope I am lucky and I will get another Abo. So that was my Box for this month

I love that there are so any different product categories covered. I have a use for almost everything, except the sun spray, I am a pale girl and need SPF 50+ and I react allergic on most sun protection products, but my parents sure will find a use for it. The febreeze room thing is already on my night stand and actually makes a nice scent. Compeed is always great, I really like them. I am also excited to try the warm wax. And well we all can use tooth paste right?

I visited a polish Douglas and got myself a Inglot Duo palette (ca 15 zł) and a nice taupe eyeshadow which reminded me of satin taupe (402) I think I will do a post with dupes. The eyeshadow was about 12 zł. Next visit in Poland I will buy the second one

Also my fyrinnae order arrived. I just looooove this brand. My first pressed eyeshadows are Hitched and Serendipity. And another 2 loose pigments Steampunk and Conjuror. As a free sample I got Cupcake frosting. There are some more pressed eyeshadows I really want. next order is probably not far away.
And some usual drugstore purchases, the new bodylotion of dove, the smell is just amazing! And a holo nail polish by RdL Young, I am really loving it.

Horder confessions

Hey guys, so I have a confession to make, I am a HORDER! Yes it's true and one of the reasons why I need to make empty posts to motivate myself to empty things. I imroved a lot during the years but still there are some products I always have stocked up, which I want to show you!

All pictures are from my contemporary stock :D

#1 Cosmetic wipes

First I have to explain I use cosmtic wipes for everything from when I do my make up after using them as normal tissues and now that hay fever season started my consume will increase even more. I need at least two packages of back ups while having two open. It's nuts but hey...

#Cleansing wipes

Well they are my fovorites and I use them every day so I always have back ups, when they sell them for 99 cents I usally buy a bunch of them so I feel safe and I also save money. Smart or what.

#Shower gel

I always try not to buy new ones but then … the voice in my head tells me I need to. And I usually follow the voice. Well at least I am never smelly and it's nice to have some in stock as a last minute present.

#Cotton pads

Same situation as the cleansing wipes, I always use them same brand and when they are on offer at Rossmann I buy in advance to not come into the postion of buying others or spending 20 cents more.

Round cotton pads lilibe and maxi ones ebelin (DM)

#Bodylotion

Well I am just a horder when it comes to my favorite Oil and Cream Lotion from Balea which is only available during winter so I stocked up a few back ups because I love it a lot also during the warmer seasons. Other than that I never have loads of body lotions.

#Shampoo and Conditioner

Sometimes when I see a good offer I just buy without thinking „Mhm well I have already enough!“ I imroved over the years but I still have way too much.

Garnier Avocado & Karite Butter, Phyto, Balea Long and Beautiful, Fructis, TBS Banana

#Eyemakeup remover

Again when they are on offer I buy some. I only use Rival de Loop since I am allergic to most others. And since I need them basically every day, I empty them quite quickly.

Rival de Loop Eyemakeup remover left one oil free, 3 on the right with oil

These are pretty much my hording hot spots.

What are you hording?
