I love using up products which is probably half the reason I love doing my Beauty Graveyard posts so much. If you haven't read one of my Beauty Graveyard posts before, they are basically just mini reviews on all the products I have used up recently.
As much as I love trying new things I'm pretty loyal with the products I love. Once I find a product that works for me I will stick to it and repurchase it again and again. I have decided to add a little star next to the products that have appeared in previous Beauty Graveyards, that way you can see which products I really rate.
Organix Brazilian Keratin Therapy Shampoo - The Moroccan Argan Oil Shampoo from Organix appeared in my last Beauty Graveyard post and I really didn't rate it very highly but I love the Brazilian Keratin Therapy Shampoo. This leaves my hair so smooth and sleek, I feel like a young Cher! I really recommend both the shampoo and conditioner and I have already repurchased both. I don't think you can go wrong when it only costs £6.99 from Boots.
E45 Moisturising Lotion * - My favourite body moisturiser. E45 moisturises but doesn't leave you sticky, its amazing!
Marc Jacobs Hibiscus EDT - Part of Marc's Tropical Splash range, Hibiscus was my go to summer scent. After sniffing this my mum purchased "Rain" from the collection and that is equally lovely. I would definitely buy another fragrance from the range next Summer.
Liz Earle Instant Boost Skin Tonic - This is one of Liz Earle's most famous products. It might sound strange but I love the slightly medicinal smell this toner has, it makes me feel like its doing my skin good! I know that's not scientific in the least. This is a very refreshing toner, doesn't make my skin feel tight at all and its great for getting the last bits of your make up off after cleansing. This too has already been repurchased.
MAC Eyebrows "Lingering" * - Best eyebrow pencil ever, the narrow tip makes it so easy to add the tiniest of strokes to your eyebrows and Lingering is very much a universal colour. This pencil is so good that I've got my two best friends on it now. Each of us even has a back up one stashed away because we are so paranoid about it running out!
Ojon Full Detox Shampoo - This is a deep cleansing shampoo by Ojon which I have fallen in love with. Ojon recommend using this once a week to remove impurities and product build up. I would use this every time I wash my hair if I could, so I have settled for every other wash. If you have greasy hair this is a must. Sometimes I can wash my hair and it still doesn't feel completely clean especially if I wash it at night, its almost greasy again the next morning! But when I use this my hair feels so clean, light and fresh but it doesn't feel stripped or dry, it just feels so clean! Honestly if you don't suffer from greasy hair you probably wont know what I'm banging on about, but this is my second bottle I have been through and I would not be without this!
L'Oreal False Lash Telescopic Waterproof Mascara - Simply, THE BEST MASCARA (apologies but capitals are necessary). Please note this is specifically the waterproof version as I haven't tried the regular! This gives me the longest lashes that stay curled all day and this is the first mascara that I have used which doesn't transfer on me (not even on the bottom lashes) I'm on my third tube already!
Bioderma Crealine H20 * - My favourite make up remover, feels like water on the skin. The only thing that annoys me is how quickly I get through it!
L'Oreal Professional Solar Sublime After Sun Nourishing Balm - L'Oreal's Solar Sublime range is amazing, different products to protect and care for your hair following sun exposure. I used the shampoo and conditioner on holiday and my hair didn't dry out, or get knotty or frizzy at all, plus this smells divine! I want to use it all year round!
Elemis Fresh Skin Skin Glow Exfoliating Face Wash - So Elemis now have a range in Superdrug, who knew! I was very excited when I saw this. I'm guessing its a diffusion range similar to what Boots have done with Essie. Sadly though I wasn't that keen on this facial exfoliator. Since discovering Alpha H's Liquid Gold I really haven't cared much for gritty exfoliators and I just don't really feel this did anything to my skin.
Clinique Liquid Facial Soap Mild - This must be donkey's years old and was lying around in my swimming bag. Lets just say I'm glad its gone!
Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair - This is just a diddly sample size bottle but it lasted me a good while. I really enjoyed using this and am very tempted to purchase the full size (I just don't want to spend the money!) You put this on cleansed face before bed (I personally don't follow with a moisturiser but you can if you wish). In the morning my skin looks and feels brighter, smoother and plumper. I can see why this is such a cult product.
Avene Eau Thermale Thermale Spring Water - Water in a can? Actually very refreshing, I like the mini size to keep in my bag in the summer to spray on my face after particularly sweaty train journeys on just to have a permanent mist spraying on my face on those really hot days. Not a necessity by any means and not something I would have any use for in the Autumn/Winter months but a nice product none the less.
Moroccanoil * - I solemnly swear that I will never, ever be without this. EVER. Holy grail, without it my hair is quite literally shit!
Body Shop Coconut Shower Cream - I hate bad packaging and this shower cream was too thick to get out of the bottle, causing a lot of faffing about for an average product. Not a fan.
L'Occitane Almond Shower Oil - From one naff shower cream to an amazing one. This feels so luxurious and moisturising on your skin, I am a little bit hooked. The downside is that its £16 but it is a wonderful product.
Yes to Cucumbers Soothing Daily Calming Moisturiser - This is the first thing I have tried from the Yes to range. Yes to really appeal to me as brand with their all natural products, I think they have got their branding spot on. I enjoyed this moisturiser, I will be honest it wasn't amazing and I have tried better but I like the fact its natural ingredients. I have now bought the Yes to Tomatoes moisturiser which I am excited to try!

I am a big fan of Morrocanoil, I had mine for over 2 years now and still have plenty left.
ReplyDeleteI got L'Occitane Almond shower oil on sale once and fell in love with scent and consistency, however I can justify paying full price for it...
TBS used to have gorgeous products but in recent years quality got worse big time...I only use them if someone gifts it to me
Yeah Morrocanoil is pretty much the only thing I use in my hair, I love it. I havent used the Almond shower oil in a while, I know what you mean its a lot of money and theres things I would rather spend that on! I quite like their mini hand creams, always good when they come as a freebie with a magazine x
