Summer Empties & Review - 2026

 Hi, everyone! How was your weekend?

Here's everything I was able to use up these last few months!

MAC Strobe Cream

 

I like this primer. I'm not a big fan of the flat matte look, and this makes my skin look hydrated and luminous under my foundation. 

The Ordinary Glycolic Acid Exfoliating Toner

 

I like this for my body, not so much for my face. I've already repurchased the bigger bottle. 

OGX Peptide + Growth Serum Mist

 

This was free from Influenster for review. This was okay. It smelled nice and made my hair feel soft, but I didn't notice any new hair growth. 

Bath & Body Works Gorgeous Gingham Body Cream

 

This smells really nice. I'm trying not to purchase any more B&BW lotions unless they're for gifts. I have a few other lotions I need to use up first. 

 

 Lancome Idole Eau De Parfum

 

I received this quite a while ago from Influenster. I did like the scent of this, but I hated the bottle. It's very narrow and wouldn't stand up on its own. I had to lean it against the wall or put it flat on the counter. 

 

Native Bare Jasmine Body Lotion

 

This was hydrating and smelled good. I hated that I had to cut this open to get the last 1/3 of the product out. 

Ivory Sensitive Skin Body Wash

 

This bottle was HUGE and lasted for a very long time. 

Redken All Soft Shampoo & Conditioner

 

I liked this set. It smelled nice and made my hair feel soft and clean. 

Vaseline Vanilla Cocoa Body Lotion

 

This was a bit greasy, but it smelled good and was hydrating. 

Neutrogena Makeup Remover Wipes

 

I have 2 more packs of these wipes. I'm ready to switch to a different brand of wipes. 

Dior Diorshow Mascara

 

I liked the way this made my lashes look. I would totally purchase a full size of this. 

Native Cucumber & Mint Body Wash

 

This smelled so clean and fresh! I liked it a lot. I would repurchase this again. 

Grande Mascara Conditioning Peptide Mascara

 

This was okay. Not one I would repurchase though. 

Batiste Brunette Dry Shampoo

 

I always repurchase this dry shampoo. It smells fine and it refreshes my hair. 

Bobbi Brown Smokey Eye Mascara

 

I like this mascara too. Idk if I would repurchase this, but if it was given to me I'd gladly use it. 

Crystal Collagen Gold Powder Eye Mask

 

These felt nice while I had them on. I like pretty much all eye masks though. 

Marc Jacobs Omega Lash Volumizing Mascara

 

I like this mascara too. Again, I don't think I would buy this for myself, but I would happily use it. 

That's everything I used up! I'm hoping I can get a lot more products finished up by the end of the year.

Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you have a great week!
