Summer Empties!


It's summer empties time! I have been saving up empties since we moved to our apartment in May and even have a few of Tim's things sprinkled in this bin...although he doesn't totally get the whole empties thing yet and tends to throw a lot away! 




Swiffer Wet Pads- This is a necessity in our apartment! I use these every week to mop our floors and make sure everything sparkles! It's amazing that even regular vacuuming can't prevent the grime that shows up everywhere and these pads trap them easily!

Macadamia Deep Repair Mask-  I love this product- you will always see it in my empties because it's amazing. It makes my hair nice and soft and it smells amazing which is always a plus. I buy mine at TJ Maxx or Marshalls because it's way cheaper then at the drug store.

Tide Pods- I have been using these for our laundry since I travel to and from the laundromat. It makes it easier to only carry a bag of pods instead of a heavy container of detergent. I really like them and feel they truly get our clothes clean every week!

Rainbow Ice Gourmet Gum- If you've never tried this gum before head on over to Target because it's great! I tried the cake one as well (but Tim threw out the wrapper) which wasn't as good as the rainbow ice. I will definitely buy it again.

Cutex Nail Polish Remover Wipes- I never make it a point to buy remover wipes because nail polish remover on a cotton round works just fine but I do always love having these when I get them free. It makes removing nail polish a breeze.

Pantene Shampoo and Conditioner- Tim used up these samples and he liked them just fine. His hair smelt nice too which I loved!

Essence of Beauty Sunblossom Lotion- Worst lotion ever. It smelled terrible and it made my skin feel greasy. I definitely won't get this lotion again- I believe I received it for free but don't need to do that again.

Pink Warm and Cozy Body Mist- I love this body mist and I have already repurchased a large size of it. The smell is so comforting and light I will definitely always keep this in my perfume collection.

Bath and Body Works Bright Autumn Day Lotion- I received so many compliments while using this lotion. I kept it in my desk drawer at work and not only does it keep my hands super soft after the damage they go through at work but it smells amazing.

Bath and Body Works Hawaii Passionfruit Kiss Shower Gel- I love BBW shower gels and this one was nice, not my favorite but still great.

Klorane Shampoo and Conditioner-  I didn't like this shampoo and conditioner at all! They came in my Birchbox but besides the scent they were pretty terrible on my hair and made it super dry! I will not purchase this full size.

Cake Batter Chapstick-  I finished 13 of these! I love this chapstick so if you haven't tried it, go find it now!

Method Pink Grapefruit Hand Soap-I really like Method hand soap! This soap was nice and I would definitely purchase it again in the future. I like that it's natural and the scent is great as well.

Bath and Body Works Peach Bellini Hand Soap- Not my favorite soap at all. It felt gritty and gross and just was not my thing. I will definitely only purchase the foaming hand soaps from Bath and Body Works from now on.

Sensodyne Toothpaste- I am still using sensodyne toothpaste because it is the only toothpaste that does not give me canker sores. I highly recommend it if you have the same issues because until I used this toothpaste I never was able to get rid of my canker sores.

Smashbox X-Rated Mascara- I liked this mascara, it definitely wasn't a favorite but it did the job just fine.

Advil-What is there to say about advil? Nothing exciting, I just liked that this was a small little container that fit nicely in my purse.

Eyeko Mascara- Not my favorite mascara, I feel like it was pretty clumpy. I did finish it quite awhile ago though...but it definitely didn't impress me!

Bath and Body Works Malibu Sunset Antibacterial- I loved keeping this in my desk at work since there are so many germs there. I loved the scent too, anything beach scented is generally a hit with me and this was no exception. I like that it also covers the antibacterial scent of it as well so it doesn't smell like alcohol too much.

John Freida Go Blonder Shampoo and Conditioner- I liked this shampoo and container set. It did not make my hair any blonder, but the product itself was nice enough to my hair. I would definitely try out this product again in the future.

Loreal Shampoo and Conditioner- This trio was great and was meant to make my hair straight. It didn't necessarily do that but it certainly did calm down my hair and made it silky smooth. I would try out the full size in the future for sure.

Skintimate Shave Gel in Raspberry Rain- Skintimate does shave gels pretty well. I like the scents they have and it does a pretty good job. Not as great as EOS, but not bad at all.

Dove Shampoo and Conditioner- I loved this little set of shampoo and conditioner because it did wonders for my hair! I think I'll be purchasing the full sizes soon because it worked great.

Bath and Body Works Twilight Woods Lotion- Another win! I loved the musky scent of this lotion. I had never used twilight woods before but it has officially moved up the line to being one of my favorite scents from Bath and Body Works.

TicTacs Banana- I bought this because it was minions, but I loved the banana flavor! If you haven't tried these go find them now!

Tictacs Christmas- Yes we keep mints forever apparently. These were okay and tasted like apples which wasn't my favorite but sometimes you just have to get eat some mints :)

Tictacs Easter-  These ones were nothing special either. I'm just not a fan of the berry flavored tictacs.

Herbal Essence Hello Hydration Shampoo and Conditioner- One of my favorite shampoo and conditioner sets. I will be repurchasing these for sure.

Basin Pink Sugar Scrub- I love this scrub! We bought this in Florida and it took so long to finish this big container, but I would definitely purchase it again.

Optifree Contact Solution- Unfortunately I wasn't able to finish all of this contact solution since I left it in the car in the heat. I did like it a lot, I would definitely use it again but I'm not too picky

Bath and Body Works Endless Weekend Shower Gel-  I loved this shower gel and it was great scent as well. I will definitely get this scent again in shower gel and lotion because it was a perfect summery scent.

Suave Men Shower Gel- Tim liked this shower gel, it smelled nice, and it was FREE with couponing. Win, win, win!

Lysol wipes- I use these religiously to clean our bathroom, kitchen, etc. I love knowing that I can clear out germs with a simple wipe. I love getting things clean!

Yankee Candle Pink Sands Car Freshener- I love the smell but man do these things run out fast. I think in the future I will purchase discounted products for car fresheners because it's not worth it to spend a ton of money since they disappear so quickly.

EOS Shave Cream- I love this shave gel, it's amazing but I don't love the price necessarily. I usually coupon for skintimate but may purchase it again the future because I just love how great of a shave I'm able to get with it. Definitely highly recommended in whatever scent you like!

Pantene Shampoo- Another Tim empty and he seemed to like it! I think I may have him hooked on Pantene :)

Crest Pro Health Mouthwash- This mouthwash is good and does the job...nothing too exciting!

Colgate Mouthwash- I liked this mouthwash as well, it was just fine. I believe I got it couponing because I usually don't end up getting Colgate but I really did like it.

Palmolive Dish Soap- I hate washing dishes...but Palmolive does the job just fine. I used a couple of these this season.

Total Home Dish Soap- This dish soap was free and worked just fine. I didn't see much of a difference at all between this and the more expensive brands so I will definitely pick this up again if it's free!

Dawn Dish Soap-  I really like Dawn dish soap- it cleans dishes super quickly and they look great once they are washed. Can't ask for more! (Except a dishwasher)

Almay Makeup Wipes- I use these to remove my makeup at night off my eyes and they work great. Almay makes super gentle products which is great for my sensitive skin.
