July Beauty Favourites + Empties
Wednesday, 14 Aug 2019
I have been a bit MIA around here again, but hopefully I am back. Haha, I say that all of the time, but here are my July Beauty Favourites and Empties…
The dry and cold winter is not kind to the skin, but I have been using two products that have really helped to keep my skin soothed and hydrated. The *B: Calm Booster from Fountain of Truth containing Niacinamide and Zinc helps with the barrier, feels light on the skin and keeps my skin from freaking out. I have also been loving the *Elizabeth Arden Skin Illuminating Brightening Hydragel Cream, a light, luxurious but hydrating cream. It feels soft and silky and contains hyaluronic acid, vitamin c and glutathione to protect and brighten the skin over time.
I have been drawn to the Bobbi Brown Art Stick in Cherrywood a lot recently, it is a soft burgundy shade that is creamy and comfortable. It adds slight colour to my lips while still being wearable and understated.
I cannot get enough of this wooden wick candle from the Charisma Candles Woodlands Collection in Crushed Lemongrass and Bergamot Zest. I love the scent, but I adore the crackly sound the wooden wick makes. It has pooled a bit which is unfortunate, but the crackle is amazing.
And now for some Empties:
Wella SP Balance Scalp Shampoo and Mask- I would absolutely repurchase this, this duo really soothes my dry sensitive scalp.
Human + Kind Family Remedy Cream- I don’t even know how many of these I have repurchased, but I will definitely keep buying it. It is the best moisturiser for dry winter hands.
Sleepy Naked Shower Gel- I really love the scent of Sleepy and I really enjoyed using this, I would probably repurchase.
Clarins Hand and Nail Treatment Cream- I had this in my handbag, and I quite enjoyed it, although I probably wouldn’t repurchase.
Human + Kind Body Oil- I quite like this, it isn’t too greasy, smells nice and hydrates well, but I don’t think I would repurchase.
The Body Shop Skin Defence Multi-Protection Essence- I adore this, and would definitely repurchase. I love the texture of this! I am currently using the Mist, which I am enjoying too.
LA Girl Shady Slim Brow Pencil in Blackest Brown– I would definitely repurchase this, it is one of my favourite brow products!
*Elizabeth Arden Prevage Progressive Renewal Treatment- Love love love!
The Body Shop Vanilla Chai Candle- I love the scent, but it burns terribly! I would not repurchase.
Cotton On Scented Candle in Chill- Love love, and if I could find this scent again I would repurchase.
MRP Home Lotus Flower Candle– I adore the candles from MRP Home, and this one was no different. I probably wouldn’t repurchase this scent though, it was nice, but didn’t blow me away.
The Body Shop Vanilla Chai Shower Gel– If this scent ever returned, I would definitely repurchase.
*Elizabeth Arden Prevage Progressive Renewal Treatment- Love love love!
*Lamelle Serra Soothing Body Lotion– This was my favourite winter body lotion, I would definitely repurchase!
*Burt’s Bees Vanilla Bean Lip Balm– I would absolutely repurchase this!
MAC Prep + Prime CC Loose Powder in Adjust- I am so surprised to have finished a loose powder! This isn’t available anymore, but if it was, I would probably repurchase.

I love reading empties posts soooooo much x
The Burts Bees lip balms are some of my favourites, so affordable and they come in a number of different flavours too.
Can’t go wrong with a Body Shop shower gel! I’m using their cactus blossom one at the moment which is fab for summer; in winter I was using peppermint candycane and their vanilla marshmallow which were both lush.
The Bobbi Brown stick is an Autumn must!

TBS do so many amazing scent ranges, I love everything from them!

I never think to light candles in any other seasons than autumn and winter. Definitely need to get some more summery/spring scents for next year x
That candle looks amazing! I seriously need to get more candles running out of scents
