Hello beauties!
Today I am making my very first "Products I've used up / Would I repurchase?" blogpost. I have seen videos like this all over Youtube so I thought why not make a blogpost like this?! I'm not sure if this is interesting for anyone to see/read but I am giving it a shot and based on the views this blogpost gets, I might do it again in the future. Let's get started now, shall we?
Balea Face Wipes Normal/Combination Skin: I am usually not a big fan of face wipes in general, they are either too oily and leave a weird oily cast behind or they are too dry and don't really work for me - which is why I am not impressed with these either.
Would I repurchase? They are cheap and I usually have some at home just in case I really need a face wipe for something, so yes.. I would repurchase.
Kneipp Winter Harmonie: This is some kind of oil for your bath that smells like christmas. I thought it was time to use that up since christmas time is over for quite some time now. I did enjoy using it, it made the entire bathroom smell and it also made a bit of bubbles as well which is always nice, am I right?
Would I repurchase? No, probably not since I have loads of bath oils and salts etc. at home that I need to use up as well and it was nothing out of this world nor am I a big bath oil/salts/whatever person in general.
Soap & Glory Flake Away Body Scrub: This scrub is incredible. I used it for the very first time and my arms and legs were super soft for days. The scent is absolutely incredible and it moisturizes your skin amazingly, even though I do use a moisturizer after the shower still, but this scrub was just great. It is quite expensive though in my eyes.
Would I repurchase? Yes, some day in the future, I will definitely repurchase. But since it is quite pricey I will wait until there is some kind of deal to get some cash off.
LOOK! by Bipa Eyelash Curler: I used this for so long that the rubber inside was completely damaged and it was time to finally say goodbye to my trusty old eyelash curler and throw it away. Sad times, I know. They were nothing special, just normal eyelash curlers for cheap money.
Would I repurchase? Yes, why not. I did purchase some other eyelash curlers right now just to try out but I have to say I did like these old ones better so once I am done with the new ones, I will definitely go back to these curlers.
bpretty Eyeliner: This liquid eyeliner I have had for literally over 5 years - no joke. And honestly, it was still working, it wasn't dried out or anything, the brush was still find and everything but I thought that after all these years, I should probably not put that stuff near my eyes anymore. But tbh, I have never really been using it anyway. I am not quite sure what eyeliner is the right one for me but it wasn't too hard to work with actually.
Would I repurchase? If I needed a liquid eyeliner that is cheap and works fine, I probably would. But since I am not a big eyeliner person and I still have a few other eyeliners at home, I won't repurchase it right now.
Isadora All Day Long Lash Mascara: This is a waterproof mascara sample that I got in my Glossybox some months ago. I have to say I was pretty happy with that mascara. The brush is a plastic wand which I usually prefer in mascaras anyway and I love waterproof mascara for when I go clubbing, which is when this mascara came in handy. It seperated my lashes really well, it stayed put the entire night and was easy to remove even though it is waterproof. What I did notice though, it dries up really quickly.
Would I repurchase? As of right now - no. I do have another waterproof mascara that I love way more and the price is pretty much the same as for the Isadora one so I won't be repurchasing this one. It was a nice and impressing mascara though.
Herbal Essences Clearly Naked Shampoo: This is my holy grail shampoo, just like the conditioner is. I only used up the shampoo because I always run out before I run out of conditioner so I am still using that one. I honestly don't mind what shampoo of the range it is. I believe there is three different ones (volume, moisture, radiance) and I like all of them. This range is "clearly naked" without silicones and all that nasty stuff and I have to say it really helps with the greasyness of my hair. I do not have to wash my hair as often as before.. I usually get away with washing my hair once, maaaaybe twice a week if I really have to go somewhere and look great.
Would I repurchase? Yes, I will forever repurchase.
Batiste Dry Shampoo (Medium & Brunette): Best dry shampoo I ever came across. It really helps with de-greasing my hair and making it look fresher and cleaner. The only thing I don't like about it is the scent and that you have to be really careful with white clothes or bed sheets, because it might transfer onto your white, clean things since it does have brown colouring in it.
Would I repurchase? Definitely. I have used up so many bottles of this dry shampoo I can't even count it anymore.
CoLab Dry Shampoo (London & Paris): I ordered these off of feelunique.com and they are a great alternative to the Batiste dry shampoo.. it just depends on what you can get your hands on easier. I have to say they do leave a little white cast behind, which is totally not noticable for blondes, but since I am brunette, I do have to massage it in very very good. Also the scents are great (there are a few different ones) but London is my favourite. I do also find that I like the feeling of it more than I do with the Batiste ones. I feel like my hair feels and smells a lot cleaner than with the Batiste one.
Would I repurchase? Yes, at one point I will definitely repurchase. But it quite annoying to order it from feelunique when I can just go to the shops and get my Batiste one.
Labello Med Protection: This lip balm has SPF 12, which I find really nice especially in the spring and summer because people forget to protect their lips. Also it does a good job at moisturizing the lips and I loved using it since it is in a stick form rather than a pot which sometimes can be quite annoying to use.
Would I repurchase? As soon as I finished up all my other lip balms I might repurchase that one.
Labello Lip Butter (Vanilla & Macadamia): This is my favourite lip balm of all time. It doesn't matter what scent it is, I love them all. They are super moisturizing on my lips, I use them over night, I use them during the day with a bit less product.. I use them 24/7 basically. The only downside is that it is a pot, which is quite annoying to use sometimes because you need to wipe your finger afterwards.
Would I repurchase? Forever and always.
NYX HD Concealer (Porcelain): This concealer is such an amazing colour match for me. The only downside is that it is quite drying under my eyes. The coverage is medium converage I'd say. I have very dark under eyes and a very red nose and it does not fully cover it up but I do think it is a nice concealer if you don't have as dry under eye area as I have.
Would I repurchase? Maybe if I need a cheap concealer when I cannot afford my MAC Pro Longwear concealer anymore, ha.
Ebelin Express Nail Polish Remover: Amazing nail polish remover. It is one of those pots where you stick your finger it, turn it around and the nail polish is gone. I love this so much, I love the idea in general and how it works so amazingly. Also this is super inexpensive and for the price it works perfectly.
Would I repurchase? Yes, I will forever repurchase this product.
Essie Got To Go Topcoat: My favourite top coat of all time is this one. It makes my nails shiny, it dries really quick and lasts for such a long time. I know Essie can be a bit expensive but I haven't found an amazing top coat in the drugstore for drugstore pricing which is why I stick to this one.
Would I repurchase? I will. If someone ever recommends me an amazing top coat, I might try something new but if I cannot find a better one, this one will be my choice.
Thierry Mugler "Alien" Eau de Parfum: I know right? Using up a perfume is such a rare thing for any of us.. but I did manage to use this one up. And you know what? This is already my second bottle. I probably wouldn't have used it up that quickly but I find that it changed it's scent quite fast and it smells a bit funky now but since it is quite an expensive perfume I thought I'd use it up anyway since there was not THAT much left anyway. This used to be my signature scent but I think we have grown apart.
Would I repurchase? No, as of right now I will probably not repurchase it. I have so many other perfumes to use up before they go bad, but I will keep the bottle since it is refillable and runs cheaper that way.
I really hope you enjoyed to read about all my empty products and if I would repurchase them :)
xox, Julia
