Face it… Recycle Week Part IV - Skincare.

When it comes to skincare, I'm actually quite loyal for the most part.
So a lot of the empties in this category will be reruns, hell I even have a double up on one of the products.

But there are also some products, that I will be leaving, even though, they weren't bad, I just have something I like more.



Caudalie Beauty Elixir is just a staple in my skincare routine, and I don't want to be with out it.
I have probably been at the end of one bottle, when I did my last empties, because a bottle normally last me around 3 months.
I have already repurchased, and will do so in future as well.

I'm so glad, that I only got a tester size of this The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture Mask, when I got convinced by all the rave there was around this product a few months ago. But it didn't really work for me, and actually irritated my skin a bit. So I'm not going to buy the full size.

This cult product the Embryolisse Lait Creme Concentre is a fine and simple moisturiser, and works fine for me in warmer months, but didn't do enough for my skin in the colder months.
Wouldn't repurchase.

Antipodes Pure Facial Exfoliator is a great and gentle very refreshing exfoliator.
But it didn't wow me in a way, that I feel like, I need to repurchase it, there are so many other exfoliators out there, I need to try.

Finished my second tub of the Eve Lom Cleanser, but now I can no longer get it at the great price, and for me it is not worth it at full price, so not a repurchase.

Origin Ginzing Eye Cream has been my go-to eye cream for a few eyes, but now that I've found the Caudalie one, I'm going to leave this one for now.

Caudalie Vinosource S.O.S Thirst Quenching Serum is another staple, I have been trying some else since I emptied this one, but just purchased a new one, because the other didn't compare, and this is just the best buy at this price point.

The Body Shop Camomile Cleansing Butter was fine, but also nothing amazing, for now I'm using the cleansing oil, but the line hasn't impressed me that much.

If you read my product battle between the Kiehl's Midnight Recovery Concentrate and Clarins Blue Orchid Oil, it will probably come as no surprise, that I repurchased only the Clarins one.

I used up two moisturisers, first the Korres Watercress Extra Moisturising Cream, which I absolutely love, unfortunately it is sold out on feelunique most of the time, so I had to get an old favourite, the Weleda Almond Facial Cream, and this one I'm also using right now.

The Lavera Cleansing gel is a staple, so I'm not going to go on about this one yet again.

A-Derma Sensfluid Micellar Water was a fine and gentle cleansing water, but I think, there are better things out there.
