Another month, another set of empties. I can't believe how quickly January has flown by! Being on the spending ban (see here) has been really difficult, so I expected the time to go by a lot slower! But, it's already February, which is going to be even shorter!
Nivea Daily Essentials Cleansing Wipes
I purchased these in a pack of three, and gave the other two to family over the Christmas period. When I first used them, I didn't like them. I found them to be strangely dry and so I figured they would do a terrible job. However, I definitely grew to like them over the period I used them, and they actually removed make up remarkably well! Would I repurchase? Maybe. I'm not too sure. There are so many face wipes out there to be tried and tested, so I think I'll make my way through them first!
Lux Shea Scrub Exfoliating Wash in Shea Butter & Caramel
Face of Australia Acetone Free Nail Polish Remover
I'm terrible with nail polish remover! I usually just wait until my nails start chipping and then chip the rest off myself whilst I'm in the shower or when washing my hands. Naughty, naughty. I found this to be an okay nail polish remover. There was nothing spectacular about it, and it being acetone free meant it was really difficult to remove glitter polishes with this one. I've since purchased the normal nail polish remover (with acetone, I assume) to see how that goes. So far, so good. Would I repurchase? No, there are plenty of others to test out first! Not that this is particularly bad, and while it's good for the price, I may drift back to it after testing out other brands!
Colgate Sensitive Pro-Relief Enamel Repair Toothpaste
This has become my favourite toothpaste. For a long time I was more concerned with whitening products, as my teeth are somewhat discoloured. (Woe is me!) However, I've decided I should be more focused on enamel production, or repair in my case, as my teeth aren't in the best shape. So far my teeth have become stronger and less sensitive, so this is definitely doing what it's supposed to be doing! Would I repurchase? Yes, and I already have!

So, there you have my empties for January. Like I said, nothing spectacular but some important products nonetheless!

Doesn't matter if they are "boring"; at least you finished them! I have the same Nivea wipes but havent used them yet. I love wipes, so convenient :)
ReplyDeleteHaha so true! I love them too! They are just so much easier.. and I use them before showering so I use a cleanser in the shower too, they are just super great for getting all the excess makeup off!

Hmm might try that toothpaste. :)
ReplyDeleteI have the green version of the FOA nail polish remover and it's okay. I just despise the smell of nail polish and removers!
You should, it's great!
DeleteI have the green version now, it's eh... I really hate the smell as well and I've been searching far and wide for a remover without that smell! Doubt I'll ever find one though! :(
