May 2014 Empties

Kirkland Daily Facial Cleansing Towelettes

As I've said before these are my go-to cleansing towelettes. They are good at removing all types of makeup, and do not dry out the skin. The best thing about these towelettes is that they are super saturated with product, so they never dry out.
Repurchase: Yes

Gillette Satin Care Alluring Avocado Shave Gel

I have really dry skin on my legs and shaving makes it worse. This shave gel was moisturizing and had a light aloe scent. Although this product didn't eliminate the need to moisturize, it didn't dry out my skin more.
Repurchase: Yes

Jergens Natural Glow Moisturizer in Medium to Tan

I am very pale, but when I do want some colour I prefer to use a self-tanner. This is the self-tanner I normally purchase. This sample was a little too dark for me, I need the light to medium shade. Regardless of shade this moisturizer provides a natural tan while also replenishing lost moisture from the Summer heat.
Repurchase: Yes

John Frieda Brilliant Brunette Moisturizing Shampoo

This shampoo works well at cleansing my hair, and didn't make it overly greasy or dry. I've used this shampoo before and have never really noticed it making my hair look browner or more radiant. I've used better shampoo's that have cost less.
Repurchase: No

EM Career Life Palette Sample

I'm not sure if the quality of these products on a card is the same as the full size ones, but I was very impressed with this sample. I got two eye looks out of it, and the shadow and blush lasted all day. All of the products blended seamlessly and were very pigmented. Based on this sample  I would consider purchasing the full size.
Repurchase: Yes

Wet n Wild Mega Plump Mascara

You can see my full review of this mascara here.
Repurchase: No

Covergirl Clump Crusher Mascara

I've always been a fan of Covergirl mascaras, and this one is no exception. The brush separates the lashes and deposits the perfect amount of product to achieve volume and length. As the name claims I get no clumps. I choose this mascara when I'm going for a more natural look.
Repurchase: Maybe

Covergirl Flamed Up Mega Curl Mascara

I love this mascara! I've tried quite a few drugstore mascaras and this has got to be my favourite. The mixture of formula and brush give me VA VA voom lashes, and the curl lasts all day. The only downside with this mascara is that I find it dries out quickly.
Repurchase: Yes

Wet n Wild Mega Protein Mascara

I really wanted to like Wet n Wild mascaras because they are good on the wallet, but I've yet to find one that wows me. This mascara has a plain straight spiral brush and super wet formula. For me this equals spidery, clumpy lashes.
Repurchase: No

Elizabeth Mott It's So Big Voluminizing Mascara

I really enjoyed this mascara. It gives lots of volume and length. It coats the lashes making them super black and dries to form tubes around the lashes. It does require makeup remover to fully remove but the results are worth the extra removal time.
Repurchase: Yes
