5/6 Edited to

... Read moreSharing my beauty empties is always a satisfying way to reflect on what products truly deliver and which don't meet expectations. Recently, I've finished a mix of skincare, makeup, and haircare items, including some notable brands like Caudalie, Mario Badescu, and Touchland. I’ve found that regularly reviewing empties helps me streamline my beauty routine and avoid clutter. For instance, Caudalie's skincare products impressed me with their gentle yet effective formulations, making them a staple in my routine. Nature Made's Multi+ supplement also worked well to support my overall wellness, which is an often overlooked aspect of beauty. On the makeup front, finishing products constantly pushed me to evaluate color payoff and lasting power, helping me decide what to repurchase. I also want to emphasize the satisfaction of completing a 'project pan'—actively using products until they’re fully finished. It prevents waste and encourages mindful consumption. For haircare, I noticed that certain shampoos and treatments from my empties list noticeably improved hair texture and hydration. If you’re looking to declutter or simply want honest feedback on various beauty products, keeping track of your empties can be a great habit. It’s a fun way to document what works best for your skin and hair types, and it promotes a conscious, minimalist approach to beauty.

A few months ago I realized I needed to be more mindful of using the things I already have before buying a bunch of new stuff. So as I work through my collection of products, I’ve been saving my empties to see progress 😊 here is the first few months.. Lotions- LOVE the EOS and Trader Joe’s one!
