Empties – October 2017-February 2018

Sometimes I do this post after three months, sometimes it’s four months – this time it was five. It’s worth noting that Luke and I were away for two weeks during this time for our wedding trip, and we finished off a bunch of hotel samples during that time which I did not keep or photograph. We also had someone staying in our house watching our pets during that time, and I believe a hand soap or two was finished, but I did not ask him to save the empty bottle, I don’t need him thinking I’m crazy haha.

Our basket was fairly full, but I would have expected a bit more from five months. We have finished off quite a few things already in March though, so I think my next post of empties will be a big one.

I still use medicated shampoo every time I wash my hair, and I didn’t keep the empty bottle of that I finished off.

Head & Shoulders Men Shampoo – I didn’t use this, it was Luke’s. It’s something he’s had/used in the past, so he must like it.

Herbal Essences Shampoo – this bottle was huge, and lasted us forever. We had finished off the conditioner with the previous batch of empties.

TGel Shampoo – psorasis shampoo that doesn’t require a prescription – it’s not terrible

American Cream Lush Conditioner – I liked this, and would buy it again

Hotel samples of conditioner – I don’t remember what hotel we got these from, they were fine

Hand soaps:

Bath & Body Works – Snow Kissed Citrus, Vanilla Bean Noel and Raspberry Meringue

Softsoap – Tangerine Treat

Bath Retreat Citrus Bubble Bath – this stuff smelled good and it made bubbles – what more could you ask for?

Colgate Toothpaste – the old faithful of toothpaste, my favourite stuff!

Jergens BB Body Cream – I’m pretty sure we got this free one year at Stars on Ice, and I kept it on my desk at work. It was decent hand cream

Protopic Cream – this is a prescription cream for my psorasis, and it works really well. I use a lot of this stuff.

Neutrogena Sunscreen – meh

Elizabeth Arden mascara – it was fine, it was mascara. Not my favourite one I’ve ever tried, but not my least favourite either.

Overall, we really didn’t finish off a lot during this time frame, but our basket already has 4 or 5 things in it from March.
