Beauty and the Least

January Empties


Hey babes! I’m back with another Empties post! For those of you who are unfamiliar with the term “empties,” you probably haven’t read my previous Empties PostsClick here to catch up on my reviews of all the products I’ve used up (and are thus now empty!) After using a product up entirely, it’s a good time for me to give my full review and tell you whether or not I would repurchase it. Click any product below to be linked to purchase! Also click here for my $ saving tricks!

Peter Thomas Roth Retinol Fusion PM • $65 – As we get older, retinol is a crucial ingredient for preventing aging of our skin! I massage this thin liquid onto my face every night after toning and before my moisturizing. I’ve repurchased it many times because this bottle is always reduced to $7 during the PTR website’s holiday “travel size” sales!

REN Evercalm Rescue Mask • $38 – I loved this mask, it is great for sensitive skin that needs a little TLC. The price tag is a little high, I think I’ll stick to my Mario Badescu masks that go on sale at Ulta frequently 😉

COVER FX Illuminating Primer • $38 – This was a nice primer, especially for those with dry skin since it is illuminating and helps give a natural glow. I do have another small tube that I’ll use. I won’t repurchase for the sole fact that I have tons of other primers to use!

Tatcha The Silk Cream • $120 – I LOVED this moisturizer, however the price tag is insane! I would never buy this, but it is a nice, rich gel-like texture.

Belif The True Cream Aqua Bomb • $22–62 – This was a nice moisturizer. A light, gel-ish texture that moisturizes very well. I have another small one that I’ll use, but I probably won’t purchase it ever just because I always have so many moisturizer samples to get through trying.

The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA • $5.80 – This was nice and I look forward to trying more products from The Ordinary. It has a thicker, whipped lotion type texture that is pretty hydrating. No complaints, but again I have so many other moisturizers to try that I probably wouldn’t need to repurchase for a while.
