Empties #51

Today let's deal with some skincare empties!

Empties #45

I think it may be best to do empties post once in a while and to keep on top of it, rather than having to bore you all at one shot.

Empties #40 - Skincare Serum & Moisturiser

In this Empties post, we focus on serums and moisturisers! There are quite a few so grab a cup of tea and let's go!

Bioderma Hydrabio

Bioderma is a well trusted French pharmacy brand. I think the brand first became well known because of the Bioderma Micellar Solution.

Hermo.my

So I like to check out different sites before I make an order and hermo.my had a very reasonable price so I decided to place an order and pick up some new things!

Escentual Haul

I actually picked up some French Pharmacy goods during the Escentual 1/3 off French Pharmacy sale. Some are old favourites and some are new discoveries!

Empties #8

It sometimes is a little odd how quickly time passes.
This month, I have quite a few make up items, which is rather odd for me.

 MAKE UP

Bourjois Healthy Balance Powder - 55

 I picked this up to use as a bronzer and I actually really like using it as such.
It does not swatch dark, but as I am about a 51-52, this is a good shade as a bronze and I do use it to contour as well.
I have decided to part ways with it because it was getting really difficult to use with my Bobbi Brown Bronzer Brush.

Shopping Haul. Oh dear.

I went to Space NK to collect my parcels because I had made online purchases *I know....* and came home to a parcel from ASOS and Escentual....

So HAUL POST!


Let's start with Escentual

Empties #4

Another empties post!!


This month's empties include



HAIRCARE


Silk Honey Shea Butter Hair Mask

I received this in my June Birchbox, which I was a little disappointed with because I wanted the beauty blender but received Benefit They're Real Mascara, which I hate unfortunately... but that is a story for another day.

This felt like a really nice daily conditioner, I find it hardly nourishing enough as a hair mask!

Ojon Hair Oil

Escentual Haul #2

I have only just gone and done another haul which has finally arrived!
I like Escentual and a lot of their products are cheaper than on Debenhams website and elsewhere so I have picked up a few items.

I have previously done another haul and you can read about it HERE

First off is the reason I even went on to the website, the Bioderma BB cream.

This retails at £14.50 for 50ml, which is actually slightly cheaper than the Bioderma Cream which is £16 for 50ml.
Escentual was giving out 100ml Bioderma Micellar water with it as well and I just could not say no!



I also thought I should pick up some water spritz since I am obsessed with them and these were on a slight discount .

I  decided to try out the La Roche-Posay Water and there was a small bottle so I just went with that (handy for handbag)

The Vichy Thermal Water

I hope these are nicer than the Avene spray and let's see if they will make me waiver from loving Caudalie!
The Vichy only came in one size.






Lastly was an item I have been looking out for and I needed an extra boost to meet the free delivery so I thought I might as well buy it.
Clarins Lip Perfector in Candy Shimmer.

Obviously I did not need another lip product, least of all a lip gloss, but since it is a hybrid of a lip balm and lip gloss, maybe that makes it slightly better?
Anyway, I could not say no.







These are the goodies from this haul.
Have you ever shopped with Escentual?

Micellar Water

I have quite a few Micellar water and I have been trying them all to write a comparison and review.

First off is of course the famous Bioderma Sensibio H2O - Micelle Solution

This was the first micellar water I tried, and I was at Poland at that moment.

My friend Anna raved about it and I had no idea what was going on and just used it to remove my make up. 

It worked surprisingly well (surprising because I was clueless about its fame) and I tried to look for it in UK and that was when I realise the whole RAVE about it.

This is expensive to get in UK, I managed to get it at Escentual and it was buy 1 get 1 for free at that moment so I paid £9.99 and got 2 instead of 1.

Escentual Haul

So I recently did an online shop from Escentual after essentially reading about it on Amelia's blog. It was one of the older posts about where she does her hauls and I went to each of them, including feelunique.com, beauty bay and Escentual. So Escentual happened to be doing a up to 1/3 off French Pharmacies and since I was on my way to Sweden, and I really tried not to shop. Well it lasted the weekend. The first thing I did when I got home from the trip was not to unpack or freshen up, it was to do an online shop, and then I rushed off to class.

Here is a little glimpse of the overall shop and I will be going into each product as I go along.
