Summer Empties! Hair, body and skincare products

I can't believe it's the end of August already! This summer just flew by.

I'm not good with writing empties posts, simply because I never save up the bottles of the products I use up. I also throw out my empties almost immediately, so I never remember to keep them either.

But anyway, I managed to accumulate a few empties through the summer. Unfortunately, I threw out a few things already, but I still managed to keep most of them. This includes empties for June and July also! I definitely brought way too many products with me this summer, as I didn't even touch a lot of my back ups.


I'll start with the hair products:

Hello, hello! 

I am back with another serum review! This is the 2nd bottle from the set of three. 


From the New Turn Therapy Special Set from Skin79.

March Empties!

Alright, so I didn't end up using up all of these products in March. But I had to accumulate, since it takes me a while to get through products. So technically, these are empties between January - March.


From left to right:
1. My Beauty Diary - Strawberry Yogurt Amino Acid Cleanser
- this was alright. Better than the cleanser I'm using now. Has some beads in it, but didn't clean as well as my Body Shop exfoliator. It smells nice, but really really artificial strawberries. 

2. Skin79 -  Repair Amino-Acid Serum
- a review of this will be coming shortly!

3. The Body Shop - Satsuma Body Butter
- You guys should know by now, how much I love body butters. This was the first body butter scent I had ever tried from TBS. I used to love it. But half way through using it, I got tired of the smell. Started to smell bad to me. I got this free of purchase, but I wouldn't buy it anymore.

4. The Body Shop - Passion Fruit Body Butter 
- you can read my review here 

5. Missha - Super Aqua Anti-trouble Toner
- you can read my review here

6. Oral B - Gum dental floss
- I love this stuff! It's not the regular wax floss, my teeth are too tight for those to fit through. 

7. The Body Shop - Vitamin E Nourishing Night Cream
- you can read my review of it here
I definitely liked this. But I have a few other facial creams I have since purchased so I will not be repurchasing this for a while. If you have dry skin, I do recommend you try this. 

I don't usually go through products quickly, so I'm surprised I went through as much as I did. Well this is considered a lot for me anyway. I don't think I'll have a new empties until mid/end of summer. 

What products have you used up this month? Do you plan on repurchasing any of them?

Skin79: Repair Amino-Acid Serum Review

Originally, this serum came in a pack of 3. Called The New Turn Therapy Set from Skin79. Which is another Korean skincare company. Yes, I have been going a little nuts with their skincare items. But what can I say, their products are good!


Not to mention, I bought this serum set for the most amazing price!

Korean Skincare Haul!

I recently made a handful of purchases online and had to wait about a month for all the items to come in before posting about them. 

I've begun to expand my skincare purchases over to Korea, a number of friends have been recommending a few different brands to me, and also because a few items I have been using from The Body Shop etc have not been sitting well with me. 

I don't wear a lot of makeup anymore. At most I put on some lipstick. I'm starting to lean towards taking care of my skin with proper skincare products as much as possible so I won't need concealer etc. It won't be perfect, I know, but even with makeup I prefer the natural look to begin with. And so far I've noticed my skin is looking really good. My skin is hydrated and has a nice glow even. The bags under my eyes aren't as profound, and I like to think the products I've been using have been helping. 

So onto my purchase:



From left to right:
1. Missha super aqua toner for troubled skin
- it's supposed to help with redness and pore prevention. I have not used this yet, as I am finishing up my aloe calming toner from The Body Shop
2. Etude House Goodbye Pore Ever
- this is more like a primer you put on before you apply foundation, but I am using this as the last step after my moisturizer. Less pores are always good, right?
3. Skin79 New Therapy Serum trio
- I cannot wait to use up the serum I'm using now, so I can try these three. I got these for such a great price and I've heard good things about them too. They recommend layering and using all three together.
4. Skin79 The Oriental Lifting Eye Controller
- I've already incorporated this eye serum into my skincare regime, so a review will come soon.

Have you tried any of these? What's your favourite Asian beauty product?
