Please Don't Go.....Repurchase or Not? {#5}



Another empties post, these are so motivational lol.  They help me work through all those products I have stashed away and give me room for more new stuff, no but seriously; if you have subscription boxes you know how fast your stash grows so I try to use up everything I have well as far as skin and hair goes.  Make up is a little harder to work through.  I have quite a few empties this month so let's see what I have and if I would repurchase it or not.  I also tried something new and tried to find the product with pricing and a link in case you wanted to know where I got it and how much it costs.  Now, warning a lot of my shopping is done at Walgreens so if you see that majority of my products have links to their website I am not affiliated with them n any way, it is just like one of my favorite stores.


  1. Shea Moisture Raw Shea Butter Deep Treatment Masque w/ Sea Kelp, Argan Oil & Shea Butter- I Just finished the last bit of this last night and used it as a deep conditioner for about 10-15 minutes after a relaxer and I actually liked it that way.  My mom got this for me years ago and would use it as a leave-in if I was letting my hair air dry but I stopped letting it air dry so I stopped using it.  I knew there was only a handful left so I used it up last night and I would repurchase to use a deep conditioner. (Walgreens $9.79)
  2. Pantene Intense Moisturizing for Truly Relaxed Hair  w/ Coconut & Jojoba Oil-I have been using this shampoo for as long as I can remember, I tried some others a couple times and always come back to this and I buy the large bottle which I can only find at some locations.  It smells good and it stays in my hair for a couple days and it works, it's one of those products that I keep backups stashed away.
  3. Hairfinity-This is expensive and I was not taking them consistently, when I was I noticed less shedding but no real growth.  I purchased two bottles at once and this was the second bottle, I have been taking something else so I will not be repurchasing. (Hairfinity.com $24.99)
  4. c.Booth Honey Almond Nourishing Dry Oil Mist-I first got this dry oil mist in a smaller size in a subscription box that I no longer subscribe too and I loved it so much that I bought it.  It smells good and gives me moisture but does not leave me greasy.  I have really, really dry skin and I honestly hate putting on lotion but I have to so I do, now anyways.  I can use this alone for a quick moisture but recently I have been spraying it on and then mixing my lotion with it and its great.  This was actually my last bottle so I need to stock up.  They have other products I want to try too. The only thing I don't like is that it's too small and I can't find this in store so I have to order it online. (Walgreens $6.99) 
  5. Shea Moisture Olive & Green Tea Body Lotion w/Avocado- I actually really liked this lotion form my stash that I have been trying to dwindle down over the past few months.  I find that all Shea Moisture products I have tried I really like and this is no exception.  I would buy this but like I said I already have a full stash but it will be on my list once I run out of lotions. 
  6. Pure Silk Rich & Luxurious Shave Cream: Sensitive Skin Therapy Moisturizing Soothing Botanicals w/ Aloe- I really like this shaving cream and is the first shaving cream I used and I keep buying it, I used to just use soap or body wash.  Another reason I use it is because I am blind w/o my glasses and the foam helps me see the areas I miss, I know that sounds weird but it's true I always miss spots if I don't use something like this that I can see lol. This is like my 3rd or 4th bottle and I will continue repurchasing. (Walgreens $2 .19)
  7. Palmetto Derma Collagen Booster & Restoration Serum w/ Vitamin C & E & Hyaluronic Acid- I got this in my October Birchbox and used it day and night so as you can see it lasted me a couple of months and it was, to me, a waste because I didn't really notice a huge difference in my skin.  I felt like my skin was glowing a little more but I use a lot of products so I don't know that this alone did the trick.  I will not be purchasing this but it was ok while it lasted. (Palmettoderma.com $48.00)
  8. Dr.Brandt Pores No More Pore Refiner Primer- This was also a sample product that I worked through to get rid of.  I did not like the way it came out of the bottle for some reason it was always getting on everything.  It was not a runny product but unless rubbed it would just fall off my hand if not careful, hope that makes sense lol.  It didn't do anything special and I like my Maybelline Baby Skin a lot more so I will definitely not be repurchasing. (Sephora $45.00)
  9. Dove Invisible Solid Anti-Perspirant Deodorant in Fresh- Do I really need to explain myself again?  This is in all of my empties posts and I buy it at my grocery store. (Crest Foods $0.99)
  10. Revlon Multicare Base + Top Coat- This isn't actually empty but I have had it for years and it started getting thick and gunky and messing up my nails because it wouldn't go on smooth so I threw it out and repurchased a new one.  Its my favorite! (Walgreens $5.99)
  11. ELF Vitamin E Infused Anti-Bacterial Hand Sanitizer Gel-This is hand sanitizer, nothing special. I got it in a pack of three from a mystery bag from ELF's website.
  12. Crest Pro-Health Flouride Toothpaste in Clean Mint- I always use Crest Pro-Health products so this is something I repurchase all the time maybe not this type "clean mint" but I like them all it just depends what's on sale or in a two pack so I never run out.
  13. ELF Daily Brush Cleaner- I have bought this twice and I rarely use it so I will probably stop purchasing it.  It works great I am just lazy and don't use it very often, I have had this bottle for a year or so and just now ran out. (eyeslipsface.com $3.00)

  1. I can never keep hold of empties long enough to do a post on them! The only thing I re-purchase regularly is Seche Vite, it's an amazing top coat and I haven't found anything that compares to it yet!

  2. If you have a lot of products from subscription boxes you don't use, you should try swapping for the c.Booth mist, since I'm sure a lot of people have it but aren't using it. I remember getting mine in, hm, maybe a Glossy? I started to use it but don't even think I made it through 1/8 of it...
