June 2026 Empties

All my monthly trash on display for you to see. :P

1. Jiocolor Wispy Lashes x2: These are a pretty wispy shape, I like the alternating short and long bits. I will say that these are very thin and delicate so while they do glue onto the eyelid fairly easily, they're also easy to bend out of shape or to get lash glue all over the band. So, it's important to be careful and gentle with them. 

2. berkley jensen Scented baby wipes in Green Tea & Cucumber:  I like to use these wipes to wipe down surfaces in my room whenever anything is dusty, to take makeup swatches off my hands and arms when I take blog photos, and they work to take off my makeup if I'm in a pinch. I like the way these smell and also that they stay damp as long as I keep the packaging upside down. They are plush, soft, and have a nice level of wetness where they get the job done and aren't sopping  wet.

3. Green Pharmacy Damask Rose Ceramides Revitalization Eye Cream: I thought I might like this eye cream because I love the Green Pharmacy Rose Water and Almond Oil Facial Toner , and rose products generally tend to be hydrating. Unfortunately, I find that it's so lightweight that my skin just sucks it up, absorbs it, and then my eye area is quite dry.

 

4. Le Mieux ISO-ROSE HYDRATING MIST: I enjoyed how lightweight and refreshing this mist was. It added a nice bit of extra hydration to my skin, kept me from looking powdery, and also worked well to wet my eye shadow brush with so I could use my metallic eye shadows wet. This had a fine, pleasant spray to it and a refreshing, clean rose scent. 

5. Pantene Pro-V Repair & Protect Conditioner: I personally found this to be a nicely hydrating conditioner; it left my hair soft, silky, and shiny. I also really love the way this smells - it has a fruity perfume scent to it. 

 

6. equate Island Coconut Shea Sugar Scrub:  I love how gritty this scrub is. This has a really yummy, clean coconut scent to it that I just adore! I like that it doesn't go the sweet, gourmand direction but instead has a refreshing scent to it that smells, to me, like coconut water with chunks of coconut flesh in it.  This leaves my skin feeling very soft and smooth, and is great for shave prep.  

7. Korres Renewing Body Cleanser in Cashmere Rose: I'm so sad to have run out of this. It has this super cozy, warming rose scent to it which I adore. It also leaves my skin feeling hydrated, smooth, and silky.

 

8. OPI Nail Lacquer in This Color's Making Waves:  This is a really beautiful sparkly teal nail polish with golden glitter in  it. As you can imagine, loving all nautical and mermaid themed things, I loved this as well. That said, it is down to the bottom and has become very difficult to use so it's time to say goodbye. 

9. one+other Pro Strength Nail Polish Remover 99% Acetone:  I will say that this works fantastic for quickly removing regular nail polish BUT it took forever when I was using gel. I would have to soak for a good 20-30 minutes before anything came off. I have given up on gel for myself but even so I figured I' give y'all a heads up. 

10. Dove pamper shea butter + vanilla body wash: This is a really nice, hydrating, gentle body wash that leaves my skin feeling soft and silky smooth. I love using this for shaving because it gives my razor a nice glide and makes my skin feel so nice. It has a really soft, soothing, slightly sweet scent too which I found comforting especially in the colder months.

11. equate Tahitian Vanilla Shea Sugar Scrub:  I love how gritty this scrub is. This has a really yummy, toasty vanilla scent to it. I like that this isn't overly sweet and leans more into that toasty note; I mean it's obviously still sweet because it's vanilla and smells like cookies. However, some vanilla scents are just painfully sweet and this one isn't.  This leaves my skin feeling very soft and smooth, and is great for shave prep.  

12. Cococare 100% Natural Peppermint Oil: Since there are many critters who are out and about in the summertime I like to use peppermint oil as a deterrent to keep said creatures from crawling about my living space. 

13. L'Oreal Paris true match Radiant Serum Concealer:  Truly, I wish the concealer was radiant and serum-like in texture as promised. Personally, it's thicker and more matte than I wanted it to be and feels almost paint-like. I don't love its texture or finish.

 

14. TRESemme Ultra Fine Hairspray: Generally I prefer fine hairsprays because they keep my hair tame but still touchable. My main reason to use hairspray is to minimize frizz in the summertime and static in the wintertime so I don't really need any crazy amount of hold. I like that this comes in a large canister, it lasted me just about a year or so. I think it works well for what I need it to do. 

15. Shik Baby soap with nettle extract: Despite the nettle extract in this, it's actually a really gentle soap (I supposed because it's processed) that doesn't aggravate my eczema. I found it to be quite gentle, it has a nice smell, and I like the way it leaves my skin feeling soft and silky.
