Products I've Used Up / Empties

New week new blog post and today is my first empties blog post . I personally love theses blog posts its nice to see what products people have used up and if they would repurchase them . This empties blog post is full of skincare and fragrances .(How many times can I say blogpost in one post ? Blogpost , blogpost , blogpost )



Bioderma Hydrabio Riche
I really like the Bioderma brand . This moisturiser is no exception . Very moisturising but has a nice lightweight texture . Great for very dry or dry skin . Works well under make up . Keeps your skin moisturised throughout the day . I would repurchase .

Matis Moisturiser
Sticking to the moisturisers this has to be one of my favourite moisturiser I have ever tried . Sadly its harder to get your hands on here in Ireland and the size I have is the beautician size which can be only bought in a salon/beautican service shop .  It almost feels like a moisturiser and primer combined .It makes a nice smooth surface for your foundation to be applied on top of . Its not too heavily scented . Lasts a long time and really makes a noticeable different to your skin.

LOreal True Match
So its finally here , what I think of the ever so popular Loreal foundation 'True Match' . I really like the finish of this foundation when you first apply it , it has a matte finish but its not to matte where your skin looks dry and dull . It looks lovely in photos but after a few hours of wearing it I notice it gets quite  patchy . The only thing that stops this is primer so I definitely would recommend applying primer or even moisturiser underneath maybe even some setting spray too.Its not the most buildable of foundations because it can tend to get cakey . Also it transfers onto clothes like no mans business . Some good things and probably more bad things to say about this foundation , not a completely awful foundation but just not my cup of tea .

Dolce en Gabanna Light Blue- Eau de Toilette
So sad this perfume is all gone , I tried saving it for summer but that didn't quite go to plan ! Its the perfect summer scent , fresh flowery , lemony goodness !

Matis Cleanser
Yet another matis product , its a great french brand ! My skin when using all there products together was at its best , hydrated and glowing . Removed my make up effortlessly and left my skin feeling moisturised .

Matis Toner
There is nothing like cleaning your face with a cleanser & toner . There the perfect pair and I always feel like I am really getting rid of any make up on my skin and leaving no resdew . Toner removes any traces of make up / oils on your face and leaves the skin feeling revitalised .

If you have sensitive skin the Matis delicate skin range might be more suited to you .

Lanvin Eclat - Perfume
I got this as a gift and although I wore it and liked it I would have never picked it out myself . Its not my usually fruity , sweet perfume . Its more of a floral scent .

St Moriz Instant Self Tanning Mouse - Dark
This is also just run out on me , it isn't featured in the picture because the bottle has tan all over it and I couldn't have it wrecking my picture , haha. I have been using this tan for a few years now and I love it . I find it quite a fool proof tan , I usually put it on quite carelessy, shower it off the next day and it usually comes out even . Cons would be it does have that tan smell , transfers on to anything white and while stain your clothes if you spell any on it . Pros would be the price (such good value) , the fact you can see where your applying it , the fact that it says its a dark tan & actually is and the fact that its available in loads of shops here in Ireland . It really is one of those love/hate products though I know people who swear by it and people who hate it .

Thanks for reading ,

  3. My L'Oreal true match gets patchy on me too, so I prefer the true match lumi (which I need to buy in my summer shade)
