Collective 6 Months Empties

I've been putting off doing a proper empties post from quite some time now. Somehow something or the other would crop up & empties would go on the back burner. Here I am finally doing a collective 6 months empties. To be honest, I've not used up a lot of products. Anyhow here's the list

Silk Berry Hand & Body Moisturizing Lotion in Rose & Honey

INR 245 for 500gm

I first saw this brand online & bought a bunch of products. Decent lotion, very light weight & non- greasy. Apt for summers. Not buying again.

Palmolive Heavenly Vanilla Moisturizing Body Wash

INR 190 for 250 ml

Super creamy. I loved using this all through winter. Might repurchase.

VLCC Mulberry & Rose Fairness Face Wash

INR 150 for 150 ml

I really want to like this face wash because it does it's job well. But there is something utterly disconcerting about using a pink coloured rose face wash which smells like orange. And not any old orange, it smells like freshly squeezed orange juice. I love the fragrance, it just feels surreal that it's pink coloured. Got on a BOGO offer, still have one more to use.

Silk Berry Time- Control Facial Massage Creme in Cocoa & Chocolate

INR 270 for 250 gm

One more from the same brand. Fantastic, rich cream which doesn't leave your face greasy. I used it up as a body butter because it was too rich for my face.

Moisturex

INR 208 for 100 gm

My HG hand cream. I've been using since a decade & nothing works better on my super rough hands. Will be repurchasing forever.

Ponds Pure White Deep Cleansing Facial Foam

INR 35 for 20 gm

I hated this one from the bottom of my heart. It's way too drying even on my oily skin. Plus I simply hate the signature white beauty aroma. I'm even considering not buying the BB cream again simply because of the smell! Needless to say never buying ever again.

St D' vence Multani Lotion

INR 210 for 100 ml

I quite like this. This is not a lotion but actually a face pack. Confusing name eh? Might buy again.

Vedic Line Anti- Pigmentation Blend

INR 150 for 10 ml

I loved using this facial oil because of the smell- lavender & rosemary. But it does precious little for my skin. Will not be buying again but I am repurposing the bottle. Super cute.

Vaadi Herbals Lavish Almond Soap X 2

INR 28 for 75 gm

The last of my Vaadi Herbals haul from previous year. Nothing to write home about, it's just regular soap. No repurchase.

Patanjali Multani Mitti Body Cleanser

INR 35 for 75 gm

Love this one & the mild exfoliation it provides. Have bought 2 more.

Royal Mirage Soap

Don't remember the price

Decent soap. Not repurchasing again.

Vaadi Herbals Enticing Lemongrass Scrub Soap

INR 38 for 75 gm

Decent enough glycerine soap. Might repurchase again.

Himalaya Herbals Moisturizing Aloe Vera Face Wash

INR 95 for 100 ml

Quite good for winters when I don't want my face to be extra dry. The fresh scent adds to the experience of using this face wash. Will be buying again come winter.

Patanjali Anti-Dandruff Hair Cleanser

INR 110 for 200 ml

I bought this by mistake thinking it was the regular Kesh Kanti one. I hated the Arnica type homeopathy smell this one has. Not buying again.

Garnier Ultra Blends Royal Jelly & Lavender

INR 120 for 175 ml

I've fond memories of using Ultra Doux back in my college days. The only shampoo which helped with my frizzy hair was the one with walnut extract (or so they claimed! ). This one came in a similar packaging & had my favorite lavender scent. Simply loved it! Will be buying a different variant next time.

Sunsilk Soft & Smooth Shampoo Sachets X5

INR 3 for 7 ml

I seem to have an endless supply of sachets! Love these but the product seems to be somehow reducing in the packet itself. It's been more than a year since I bought it. No repurchase until I finish all I have.

Sunsilk Black Shine Shampoo SachetsX 3

INR 1 for 5.5 ml

Same as above.

Discarding

Health & Glow Cocoa Body Butter

INR 250 for 200 gm

Where do I begin with this one! Nothing seems to be working for this product except for the gorgeous cocoa butter smell. It does not spread or even absorb on my skin. After an eternity of rubbing into skin, it somehow forms a tight layer on my skin which is far from moisturizing. Hated it! Never buying again.

That's all for now. Will be back again with next month's empties post.
