Empty products...
So at the end of June I tidied my bedroom and gathered together some empty products that i found and I'm going to share them with you now and tell you what I thought of them. Please note all brand prices are from Boots.
Hair...
|
John Freida - Go Blonder |
|
John Freida - Moisturizing Shampoo |
|
Morrisons - Firm hold mousse |
First I have a shampoo and conditioner (both £5.89 ) from John Freida. This is the Go Blonder collection for blonde hair which gradually lightens blonde hair over time. I liked this for the winter when my hair starts to go darker and I can honestly say that I saw results within a couple of weeks! I didn't use this every time I washed my hair because as it lightens it probably has an element of bleach in it which obviously isn't very good for your hair. The shampoo just about saw me through the winter which was great and I have just finished the conditioner which I have been using along with my second product, John Freida Moisturizing Shampoo (£5.59). This product says it is highlight activating but I don't have highlights so I'm not sure how well it lives up to that. It does make hair look a lot healthier and since I have come home from my holiday I'v used it a lot and my hair now doesn't look so damaged from the sun and heat. I have also got a moisturizing conditioner just waiting too be used so ill let you know how I get on with that. Both products are definitely ones I would repurchase and have actually already started on my second bottle of the moisturizing shampoo. John Freida also does Brunette and Red collections that I would definitely recommend you try. My last hair product is a Firm Hold Mouse from Morrisons (about £1?). I wanted mousse to try out some simple wavy hair tutorials i found on YouTube and just went for a Morrisons own one which is actually really good! It smells quite nice and has UV protection so is going to help hair in the summer sun. For just under £1 it is brilliant and probably works just as well as branded ones, definitely a product I would repurchase because I didn't use it too much and so it isn't worth me buying an expensive branded mousse.
Skin...
|
Simple - Facial Toner |
|
Clean & Clear - Daily facial moisturizer |
|
Clinique - Dramatically different moisturizing lotion |
The next 3 products I have are skin care. First I have an AMAZING facial toner from Simple (£2.99). I love Simple and this product is the most refreshing thing I'v ever used! The vitamins soften skin and the nutrients soften and protect skin. I use this with 2 other simple products and just apply it before moisturizing with a couple of cotton wool pads. It is brilliant value as it is really quite cheap and definitely a product I will repurchase many times I'm sure. The second product is a moisturizer from Clean & Clear (Not sure about price but is usually around £2.99 I think?) which is okay as a spare or if your desperate but i wouldn't make a special effort to go out and buy it. It wasn't to bad to begin with so I'm not sure if i might have just got used to it? But i honestly wasn't exactly over the moon with this moisturizer and iv definitely used better. Lastly for skin care I have another moisturizer this time is it Cliniques Dramatically different moisturizing lotion.(125ml - £28 & 50ml - £17) This smells sooo good! It is really refreshing and even this small 30ml version lasted along time! When i was using this product I did breakout which might just be a coincidence but have seen other beauty bloggers say the same. Overall a good higher end moisturizer that I might repurchase in the future.
Spot treatment...
|
Witch - Blemish Stick |
|
Clean & Clear - Spot treatment gel |
The first product which is from a brand called Which is their Blemish stick (£2.99). Its really strong and even smells strong when you apply it. I felt it worked really well to begin with but maybe my skin got used to it because i soon felt that it wasn't doing much and my spots just kept getting worse. A product which is definitely good for the money and i might repurchase in the future but probably not any time soon. Next is Clean & Clean Advantage spot treatment gel (£4.59). Again this worked at first and had immediate action to begin with but then after a while stopped working so well. As I'm sat writing this post I have found that there is actually some left in this tube but again when its finished i might repurchase some time in the future.
I have really enjoyed reviewing these products so please let us know if you want more empties or just review posts.
