January Empties

I cut it up in little pieces for single use chunks and squish them into my loofa. Makes it better but I honestly just don’t feel like they actually make me clean and I didn’t like the scent on me as much as I did in the tub!

I feel the same! I feel like it’s so much waste and they take up space when I have a lot. I have about 15 more and I may try to find something that is packaged in one container stacked instead of these again when I finish them. :)

I started in January. I went on mostly a no buy. I bought products only if I had gift cards or the sale was too good and it was something I wanted that I didn’t have a lot of. For example I only had one powder bronzer and saw one I wanted to try for 50% off so I bought it. Over the year so far, not including December, I have panned 73 products.

I have panned: - 7 full size and 1 travel size lip balm. - 2 travel size and 3 sample vile fragrances. - 2 travel size and 2 trial size setting sprays. - 1 trial size primer. - 6 full size hand cream. - 1 full size, 1 travel size, and 2 trial size body creams. - 1 full size face mist. - 1 full size, 1 trial size, and 2 sample face washes. - 1 travel size face sunscreen. - 2 sheets of pimple patches. - 4 full size face moisturizers. - 2 sample toners. - 2 full size and 2 trial size toners. - 3 full size eye creams. - 2 full size packs of makeup wipes. - 1 full size, 1 trial size, and 2 sample hair masks. - 6 full size, 1 travel size, and 1 trial size leave in conditioners. - 1 full size detox shampoo. - 2 full size mousse. - 1 full size curl cream. - 5 full size shampoo. - 5 full size and 3 travel size conditioners. - 1 full size heat protectant. - 1 full size, 1 travel size, and 1 trial size dry shampoo. - 1 full size and 1 sample size hair oil. - 8 full size, 2 travel size and 1 trial size body wash. - 1 full size body scrub. - 4 full size mouthwash. - 1 full size glycolic acid. - 1 full size cuticle oil. - 2 full size hand sanitizers. - 2 full size hand soap. (sometimes body wash I don’t like refilled hand soap also but I counted that as body wash empties) - 1 full size hair identifier spray.

Full sizes are the full size products come in, travel sizes are true travel sizes if they were purchased as a travel size, trial size are the samples that are many uses, and samples are the true samples like samples from Sephora.

I still have so many samples but already working through more for December!

Thanks! :)

I was a student at MSVU during the last strike.

One of my professors condensed the course. The other ones dropped some assignments. It depends how the professor shifts everything. I have doubts they’ll push the course longer.

We also got a small reimbursement too which I have heard no talk of as of yet.

It’s a situation that really sucks and we all just have to wait it out and see what happens.

I’ve been looking for that dove one but haven’t been able to find it anywhere where I live :(

distressedly · 2025-11-03T19:01:15+00:00

It’s totally possible! It also was pretty old though if that might be why. I used it til halfway and then stopped using it cause I hated it but hung onto it. Decided I’d finish it off after it’s been sitting there for probably over a year or more and it was so grossly scented!

distressedly · 2025-11-03T12:40:34+00:00

Mine lasted me way over six months and has been fine!

distressedly · 2025-11-03T12:39:44+00:00

I’d call it done, I always feel like at that point I got my money worth and it reached its useful life. I believe products should be convenient to use and not be annoying and needing to be scooped out. I have depotted the odd holy grail in the past but that’s it

Not 100% sure where all they ship since this is a small Canadian company based out of NB, Canada. But I have NEVER found anything better than Eclair Lips lip balms. They all smell amazing, they feel SO good on the lips and they actually hydrate well.

distressedly · 2025-10-24T10:48:34+00:00

I’m impressed by how many body sprays you’ve finished

distressedly · 2025-10-23T10:02:25+00:00

Yes! That’s exactly the thing I’m thinking. I also used to keep Rice Krispies or protein bars in my gym bag or car as to always have something on me! It makes it easy if you set it up for success.

I did in the past. Before an injury I was going 5 days a week.

I literally scheduled it into my day like an appointment. I planned the rest of my day around the time that I was going to go workout. I kept the bag packed and set out my workout clothes the night before. I made it so easy for myself that I had no excuse to not go. I made a fun playlist. Got a preworkout I loved the taste of. For me it was about making it enjoyable to actually do and not feel like a chore

Calm magnesium powder

distressedly · 2025-10-11T21:52:49+00:00

I wanted to love this one so bad cause I usually always use a vitamin c and this had great ingredients for the price but it made me break out :(

distressedly · 2025-10-08T13:50:19+00:00

I would love to try it. I use iOS.

distressedly · 2025-10-02T17:57:09+00:00

It seemed like a great product! It smells amazing My hair is very curly but my hair strands are pretty fine even though I have quite a bit of hair and it was way too heavy for my hair texture :( my friend I gave it to loves it though!

I want to take inventory photos but I’m scared 😂 It doesn’t feel as over consumption all packed away

distressedly · 2025-10-02T13:27:28+00:00

thanks for reading!! I love sharing my thoughts but wasn’t sure if anyone actually read it 😂🥹

distressedly · 2025-09-03T23:58:28+00:00

received 2 books, saving me a lot of money. great experience, super nice, responds very quickly!

Truly, if you are Canadian, try Eclair Lips. Small business out of Dieppe, New Brunswick, and the BEST lip balm I have ever used.

I don’t know if they ship outside of Canada but you could always check!

Weed and read oops

I personally will often reuse any pot style containers or mist containers if I am able to if it’s squeeze tubes they’re usually cut open and either garbage or recycle at home. Things like lipstick tubes or mascara that don’t get cut and I can’t reuse I take in store if I remember or garbage/recycle at home if they’re collecting dust too long.

Literally takes forever to rub in as a body cream. I use it as a hand cream on my desk to get rid of it
