Monthly Empties (February 2012)

It is that time of the month again! I’m not sure about you, but I feel February goes by so slowly. School begins in this month, so it seems forever to me.

I’m a little big getting sick of wipes, but I still have 6 packs which drives me crazy. Don’t get me wrong. I like them, but after using them day after day I’m so done.

I like the FAB ultra repair cream. It is a decent moisturizer and very affordable.

The eye makeup remover by Victoria's Secret is quite effective to take off water-proof mascaras, but the smell is so bad and strong. Even though it doesn’t burn my eyes, I still can not stand the smell.

Since I seldom spot clean my brushes, I’d mainly used the MAC brush cleanser for deep cleaning which it was not really good for. It does get brushes clean, but it takes way too much product. As to spot cleaning, the dispenser is not the best and I’d appreciate the product more if it has a spray. I guess I liked it, but not enough to repurchase it.

My favorite and last candle, Marshmallow Fireside by BBW, burned out and there is no way to get another one till this fall. How sad!

Surprisingly, I managed to finish several makeup items. I’ve used the Great Lash as a brow gel and I don’t like it. The product itself is OK, but there is too much gel on the applicator all the time.

One of my favorite eyeliners is gone. As I mentioned in my former review, I adore them.

I love the scrub by St. Ives and already have a full size tube. The microbeads are densely packed and therefore it is quite exfoliating without being too harsh.

When I first got the Soap & Glory Hand food, I was not so impressed, but after it was gone I really missed it. I guess it actually works without me noticing. Does that even make sense? Anyway, I will definitely repurchase it.

I’m trying to finish all my Clinique products and be done with the whole brand, so I’m so glad the redness solution is gone.

I really like the Murad Active Radiance Serum, but I’m not sure I will repurchase it. First, the packaging is air tight, so the active ingredients can stay in their prime longer which I really appreciate. Furthermore, it does make my skin soft, moisturized and even help fade acne scars faster, but it doesn’t seem to diminish any sun spots. I’ll keep trying other products and if nothing works at last, I will get back to this serum.

Products I will repurchase!!!
