Spring is here (or almost here) and it's time to write a post on my empties over the winter. I've used up quite a number of products so here goes.
This is the Body Shop's Spiced Vanilla Body Lotion. I got this a longggggg time ago in December 2012. I never used this much until this year because my skin is really dry during winter. I didn't use this in when I was in Singapore because I really didn't need it. Also, I think this is limited edition since it was only available during the Christmas season. I like this scent much more than the Vanilla Bliss body butter that I have. Somehow, the Vanilla Bliss body butter smells kind of... "burnt". I'm not sure if it's because I have not used that for a really long time and the scent has changed or if that's just how the scent it is supposed to be.
Another product that I have used up from The Body Shop is the Strawberry Shower Gel. It's really sweet and fruity but it's not a sickening kind of fruity scent. I did get a little bored of it towards the end of the bottle and I just wanted to finish it up. I still have another one of this but I'll probably give it to my mom to use since it's not my absolute favorite scent. I also find that this shower gel does not foam up a lot... I know a lot of people love TBS shower gels but I think I have not found something I am very drawn to yet! I look forward to trying out the Honeymania shower gels and the other body products because I LOVE honey scented things.
The last product I have used up from The Body Shop is the Vitamin E Moisture Cream. I think I have gone through a couple of these already. I really like this because it's in a plastic container and it's extremely convenient to bring around and it's not heavy. I can just put it in my makeup bag and bring it to school. I feel that this is really moisturizing since it's oil based.
The next product I have used up is from Tonymoly, a Korean brand. It's the Peach Anti-Aging Hand Cream. It smells amazing and if you love peach scents, this is perfect. It's also not very greasy. The product is only at the bottom half of the packaging, it may be slightly deceiving if you did not know about it. But overall, this hand cream is really nice.
I'm a lip balm junkie and I'm always trying out new lip balms. I got a few Nivea Essential Care lip balms. I have actually used up 2 already and I'm on my last one. I just go through lips balms really quickly. I think this is going to be my new favorite lip balm because it is SUPER moisturizing. And I think I only got it for 4 bucks in Singapore which was really inexpensive. I really recommend this lip balm to you!
Another lip product I have emptied is the Vaseline pure petroleum jelly. It's just like a lip balm but you can apply it much thicker on your lips and leave it on overnight. I used to have chapped lips when I wake up the next morning and lip balms were not effective enough. But now, my lips are in a pretty good condition ;)
The Silk Scarf Repair Hair Essence from Etude House is another Korean product that I have finished using. It's basically a hair serum. I have never actually used hair serums before this, which is probably why my hair never grew. So ever since I started using this, I have seriously seen great improvement in the health of my hair. It also instantaneously leaves a shine to my hair and my hair just feels so smooth after I use it. It also smells good but the scent is really subtle and you can't smell it unless you put your face into my hair. I have a love-hate relationship with the packaging. It's really small (60ml) and I can put it in my travel bag wherever I go. The cap also does not come off too easily. I just really dislike the font color used on the packaging. I was checking if the amount was less than 100ml so that I could bring it with me on the plane and it took me so long to find it. The font just totally blends into the label. Other than that, I have really enjoyed this product. I will move on and try out other hair serums because I always like trying out new stuff.
I have also used up the MAC Studio Sculpt SPF 15 Foundation. I have a whole review for it already and you can check it out here: http://itsjennyzhu.blogspot.com/2014/03/review-mac-studio-sculpt-spf-15.html
I am extremely proud to say that I have finished burning a candle. This is Christmas Cookie by Yankee Candle. It didn't smell as nice as I expected it to and the smell is very faint compared to Bath and Body Works candles. I have another unused Yankee Candle called Vanilla Cupcake and I think that smells much better than this. So get Vanilla Cupcake instead of this if you want a Yankee Candle. (:
That will be all! Thanks for reading :)
