Empties – November 2021

Hi there! It’s the first day of a new month, so this means that today’s post is about last month’s beauty trash = November’s empties. I used a bunch of single use face masks, and you can read about my latest face mask finds if you click here. Now let’s look at the big bottles and tubs and…

1 Radox Blueberry Scent Bath Bomb (no photo) – this was a single-use bath bomb, hence no photo. I enjoyed this bath bomb, and I might buy it again.

2 Original Source Green Banana & Bamboo Milk Moisturising Shower Milk – this is a really nice shower gel! I’d buy it again, but unfortunately, it was discontinued.

3 Radox Muscle Relax Bath Salts With Peppermint Scent – I used them twice and didn’t care for them. My husband used most of these salts, but he also didn’t love them. I won’t buy these bath salts again.

4 Max Factor Pan Stik 12 True Beige – my all-time favourite foundation! I have a few more of these!

5 Superdrug Layering Lab Paradise Body Mist – I liked this one a lot, and I will buy it again.

6 Valjean Labs Restore Facial Serum – a decent serum. Not groundbreaking though. I won’t repurchase it.

7 Boots No7 Total Renewal Micro-Dermabrasion Exfoliator – this is a very nice product. I will buy it again, no doubt.

8 Patisserie De Bain Mango Sorbet Hand Cream – a decent hand cream. Repurchase-worthy.

9 Olay Regenerist Luminous Tone Perfecting Cream – this is the US version of the cream, and I didn’t like it as much as the UK version. This one isn’t very moisturising, unfortunately.

10 Palmolive Aroma Therapy Absolute Relax – an all-time holy grail shower gel. I have a few more of these.

11 L’Oréal Elvive Colour Protect Caring Conditioner – a very nice conditioner! I have another shampoo and conditioner combo in my stash.

12 Westlab Dead Sea Salt Soothing Bath & Shower Gel – a nice shower gel. I can see myself buying it again.

November wasn’t a bad month for empties. I hope I can keep the streak going and finish the year with at least 12 more products (aiming for a few more, though…). Fingers crossed!

Original Source Green Banana & Bamboo Milk Moisturising Shower Milk, Original Source Sweet Apple & Vanilla Milk Moisturising Shower Milk

Hi there! Today’s post is about 2 shower products I’m using at the moment – Original Source Green Banana & Bamboo Milk Moisturising Shower Milk and Original Source Sweet Apple & Vanilla Milk Moisturising Shower Milk.

Let’s start with Original Source Green Banana & Bamboo Milk Moisturising Shower Milk! This one is really nice! I would have preferred the banana scent to be a little less green, but it’s still a cute scent. The best bit is the formula though. It really is a moisturising shower milk. Tremendous stuff!

Onto Original Source Sweet Apple & Vanilla Milk Moisturising Shower Milk! This one is super moisturising too! Very impressive! The sweet apple and vanilla fragrance is very nice too – it’s a bit faint though. Still, this is a great little shower milk, and I’m enjoying it very much.

If you’re interested, Original Source Green Banana & Bamboo Milk Moisturising Shower Milk and Original Source Sweet Apple & Vanilla Milk Moisturising Shower Milk are available as 250ml. I paid £1 each (at one of the bargain stores).
