Bin Hoking…. Empties post #1
Here is my very first empties post. Now, I have been collecting these empty packages for a few months now. It actually is quite rare for me to finish something! Most of these are "consumables" anyway, or things I have had for a very long time.
Nuxe Creme Prodigieuse Nuit - I absolutely loved this as a moisturiser although I think I prefer the Creme Fraiche which I got last Christmas. I love the smell of the Prodigieuse though.
Clarins Eye Contour Balm - This was also a Christmas gift from last year, it certainly has served me well! It is a lovely eye cream although to be honest I don't think I would buy it again. I think I will try the Origins GinZing next.
Clarins Truly Waterproof Mascara - This is the mascara I have been wearing all summer! The lid doesn't even close properly on it now, I made sure that I used every last drop of it! Absolutely loved this, would definitely get it again! It's the best waterproof mascara I've ever used, it can survive anything!
Schwarzkopf Color Freeze Thermo-Protect Cream - I thought this tube was going to last me forever! I bought it from Feelunique I think over a year and a half ago! It smelled fantastic and worked really well for me. I think I might try the Mythic Oil heat protection the next time but I would definitely buy the Schwarzkopf again in the future.
Clarins Instant Eye Make Up Remover - This is probably my most repurchased beauty product! I have just purchased my fifth bottle. I adore this and I cannot go without it!
Lancome Visionnaire Cream - I was genuinely devastated when I used up all of this! Near the end I tried my best to ration it out but now the jar is completely empty. This cream is absolutely fantastic, it really brightens up your complexion, and I loved the elegant jar.
L'Occitane Body Cream Zesty Lime - I got this when I was on holiday in Paris and honestly, it only lasted me at the most 3 weeks. I didn't even use huge amounts of it, just the regular amount every night! It just seemed to run out very quickly. Unfortunately it's a tad on the expensive side to order here so I don't think I can afford to purchase this again any time soon. I will say though that it is the best body cream I have ever used, nothing has ever come close to this!
Mane n'Tail Color Protect Shampoo - This is my 2nd bottle of this, I have already repurchased by 3rd. It's a great shampoo, my hair feels great and it is far more reasonably priced than the Kerastase shampoos i had been using before I discovered Mane n'Tail!

Clarins Truly Waterproof Mascara - Colours of Brazil Summer 2014 Collection
Here is a mascara which was well and truly built for summer! I am so excited about this. I love the sleek black packaging - it looks so classic and elegant. I love how it looks so understated with it's plain black tube and gold lid with just the Clarins "C" on it.
The wand is perfect - it reminds me of Benefit BadGal, only a bit thinner. The formula of this mascara is quite interesting - it uses bitter orange tree wax and olive squalane oil in order to protect lashes against humidity, sea water and pool water! See, I told you this mascara was built for summer! There is a very slight orangey scent too, which is so nice and fresh!

This mascara boasts length, volume and 12 hour hold. My lashes are already kind of long, so I didn't really see much difference with regards to length. My lashes do look a little more voluminous. The real benefit of this mascara in my opinion is the protective film it creates over the lashes. It is most definitely, completely waterproof! The formula of this mascara is "tougher" than any mascara I've ever used.
I swear by my Clarins Instant Eye Make Up Remover, it never lets me down! It removes this Truly Waterproof mascara with no trouble at all. I was concerned that it may be a little hard to remove, but thankfully it is so easy!
Also, I definitely agree with the 12 hour hold of this mascara! I apply it in the morning before work, and at night time it still looks as fresh as though I just applied it.
I will definitely be taking this mascara on holidays with me! I love that it is completely waterproof and is built to withstand humidity!
Incase you were wondering, the eyeshadow I used in these photos is the Clarins Splendours palette, which was part of the 2013 summer collection! I really hope to add the Colours of Brazil palette to my collection, it looks so gorgeous!
Also, unlike the rest of the Colours of Brazil collection, the mascara will be part of the permanent line! :)
