>> Hi ya'll and welcome or welcome back to my channel
for those of you who don't know me, Hi, I'm Giuliana
I upload new videos every monday and friday
so if you haven't yet subscribe in order not to miss any
That said let's get to today's video, which - as you may have guessed from the title-
it's an empties one, which means that I'm going to show you all the products I finished up in the past months.
The empties series has been going on for a while on my channel
I think this is ...
the 9th or 10th instalment, I'm not sure
Anyway if you're not familiar with the format I'll quickly explain it to you
I'm going to show you the products I finished up sharing a short review
so that you'll know if I liked them a lot or not so much
and if I plan to buy them again or not.
I can't remember when I uploaded my last empties video, but I think it was a while ago
because my empties box
is overloaded with a million products, so I think we should definitely get started right now!
There won't be any particular order, I'll grab the products randomly
and the first one is Fresh Rose Cleansing foam
a gentle and peculiar face cleanser
I loved it a lot, the only downside is that it's impossible to get Fresh in Italy
not even online, as far as I know
so I need to wait until I'll travel back to the U.K. or the U.S.
The peculiarity of this cleanser is that in the package it looks like a liquid, but then
when you push the pump it turns into a soft foam
it's super gentle and it smells of roses, which is a great plus for me
and it deeply cleanses the skin with drying it so
I would definitely recommend it, I used mine sparingly
mainly at night time to remove the last bits of make up
and as I already said a thousend times I really liked it, so this is definitely a thumbs up for me
The next item I see is a By Terry foundation
the light expert click brush and once again this is a quite peculiar product because
as you can see it has a built in brush
and by clicking on the other end - that's why it's called click brush - the product comes out
and then you simply blend it in
it's a light to medium coverage foundation, but it's perfect for touch ups
If you need to touch up your make up on the go
this is the foundation for you.
Illuminating, Flawless Foundation Brush
so it's illuminating, but it also covers imperfections
I don't think By Terry is available in Italy
you can probably get it online from the U.K. on the Space NK web site
I usually buy it in the U.K. or in France where you can get it in Sephora
I didn't buy it again yet, but I may do that, even if with foundations I am a bit more
fussy and I like to try new products, so I'm not sure.
The next item is ...as you can see this is totally random
a face mask, the ones sold in exclusive in Sephora, the brand is korean and it's called Ettang
I think I showed one in a past favourites video too
Anyway it's a powder mask to which you need to add water, mix up until you get a gooey paste, you apply it on your face, you leave it to dry
until it hardens up into some kind of silicone and then you simply peel it off your face
There are several different ones, this is the charcoal mask
which offers...exfoliation...
oil-moisture balance and nutrition, I managed to translate that
as it was only written in english or french
anyway I kind of liked it even if it's a bit too complicated to use I prefer my masks to be more
straight forward and quicker, but if you wish to try a different kind of mask
you'll find them in Sephora!
The next product is a daily face cream, DR Brandt Do Not Age Time Defying cream
I kind of liked it and I think I even featured it in a previous favourites video
the main downside is that it's quite pricey, I remind you that I won't state any price
because I have the worst memory ever, but on my blog I'll link all the products so that you can check them out
As I was saying the main downside is that it's quite pricey but the packing is tricky
as it looks huge, but when you open it up you realize there's not much product inside
I personally would have designed the packaging differently
that said it's a good anti age day cream and
it's really moisturizing, but I didn't buy it again, I used something else and I'm not sure I'm going to buy it again soon
Still talking about Dr Brandt I have the eye cream too, it's called the triple peptide Eye cream
the packing is less tricky and infact in my opinion it looks like you get more product
I liked it a lot
it's a lovely eye cream, it soaks in quickly, very hydrating but
once again I didn't restock it because I'm using something else
in fact with face and eyes creams I like to experiment until I find something I really like and I make it a staple.
So I did like this one, but maybe not enough to buy it again
To confirm the fact that I love to change my face creams frequently I have at least 3 more here
Let's start with this one by Fresh the Lotus Youth preserve face cream with super seven complex
I think I featured it in a favourite video and infact I liked it a lot
it's an anti age face cream
it's hydrating and it perfects the skin and smoothens the wrinkles
even if, as I always say, miracles do not exist.
The fragrance was really fresh and it reminds me of cucumber
but I don't know if cucumber is one of the ingredients
I really liked it, but as Fresh is impossible to get in Italy I couldn't buy it again
but in my next trip to London I surely get a new jar.
and always from the same brandt...i Mean BRAND..brandt???
from the same brand I also have the Creme Ancienne soft cream which is one of their best sellers
I kind of liked it and I almost included it in my December favourites video
but I didn't because it's very rich
it has a weird texture,
quite dense and it's really hydrating too
I don't have anything bad to say about this cream, the only slightly disappointing thing is the the packing is tiny
I finished it up because I liked it, but not enough to feature it in a favourites video
and I'm not sure I would buy it again in spite of the fact that it's a best seller
Different strokes for different folks!
Let's see if I can find the last face cream...
Yes, here it is!
It won't be a surprise because it's my trusted Clinique Repairwear night cream, one of my alltimes favourites.
I spoke about it a thousend times in a thousend videos so I'll try to be quick
I like it because it has a light almost gel texture
it's really hydrating, lovely to apply, it soaks in quickly and it has...
it's formulated to sculpt, tone up and repair the skin
which are all great plus in a night cream
as it helps the natural nightly regeneration of the skin
I already bought it again and I'm using it right now, so it's definitely a thumbs up
Let's grab another random product and it's a Tony Moly hand cream in the shape of a banana
I liked it, it smells like banana
but that kind of bubble gum flavour...those ...chemical flavours
Inspite of that I liked it, Tony Moly is a korean brand
If you don't know it head over to Sephora, because I believe they sell it in exclusive
the peculiarity is that all of their packagings are super cute and original
it's a bit bulky if you wish to carry it in your handbag
I didn't re purchased it and I don't know if I would.
and as we are talking about hand creams here is a great classic of mine
with a flying hair attached
the Body Shop hand cream
if you follow me you know that I love Body Shop hand creams and body products in general
this is the strawberry one and I finished it up
I love them, especially this small ones because they're perfect to keep in your bag
and the quality/price ratio is amazing
I already restocked it, but everytime I choose a different fragrance
but I can't remember which one I'm using right now
Then another random product I have here is this one
which is an John Frieda hair serum, the Frizz Ease
an anti frizz serum and an heat protector all in one
I use it to style my hair because often after I curl it
it's quite frizzy, so I pour a few drops on the palm of my hand
as this is some kind of oily gel
I rub it between my hand and apply it on my hair to remove the frizz
I already bought it again because it's a product I love
What else?
an eye mask by rexaline, once again I featured it in some past videos, I already talked about it
it's a tissue patch mask that comes in blisters
I don't know if you can see that
On one side you have the product, by breaking the seal the liquid soaks in the patches
then you apply them under the eyes, you leave them on for 15/20 minutes
15 minutes, then you remove them and it's super hydrating, anti age
it's a bit pricey, but I did notice some differences after using it and infact I already bought it again.
I think I need to be quicker because I still have a few products in here
let's keep talking about masks as I have some tissue ones here
2 are by Sephora, one is an under eye mask, the orchid one and it's anti age and
soothing? no wait I mean smoothing
this is the lotus mask and it's hydrating and soothing
then I have 2 by this new brand I discovered in Sephora right before Christmas called Dr Jart
which I do believe it korean too...
But I'm not sure about that...yep, made in Korea, I was right
They are tissue masks too, no wait hydrogel masks, which means they have a more gelly texture
but they work just like the tissue ones,
I got this one which is firming and this anti age one and I liked them both a lot
I didn't buy them again yet, but I think that the next time I'll visit Sephora I'll get some new ones.
Then I have a Body Shop body scrub
which is a bit worn out because I kept it in my shower for ages
it's part of the SPA of the world line which is a higher quality range by Body Shop
this was the Dead Sea salt Scrub
I loved it, it's obviously empty, I keep opening these jars even if I know they are empty...brilliant!
I really liked it, it had the right texture, it exfoliated without irritating the skin
the fragrance, which I could have smelled,
was very SPA like,
very elegant I would say
I recommend it, there are some other ones
gosh I hate my hair today
There are some other ones in the SPA of the world range, they are all lovely
I tried another one, but I can't remember which one...no I can't
but if you happen to be in a Body Shop store, or you can visit their web site,
you'll see that they have some other ones available, I recommend them
at the moment I'm using another scrub, but I know I'll get back to this soon.
Ok, I have 2 more body products, but high end ones
One is the Laura Mercier Almond Coconut Milk Soufflé body creme
a brand I really love, I love their make up range and their skincare range, but it's quite pricey
I loved the texture of this cream, as it was soft, it soaked in quickly
and it had an amazing almond and coconut milk scent
quite sweet, but not too much
but if you don't like sweet fragrances maybe it's not your thing
I love sweet scents and I was obsessed with this one
Yep, I still am, it reminds me of a beach in summertime, of those coconut sunscreens that I love.
I haven't restocked on this yet because I'm using some other ones
but if you are looking for a good body cream, the Laura Mercier ones are worth the price.
and still speaking about pricey products I have here a Jo Malone shower oil
a peculiar product indeed
and I tell you straight away I love it, I already restocked on it, but in another fragrance
this was the lime, basil and mandarin one, as usual Jo Malone scents are really unusual, but super nice
This is a very elegant scent, slightly masculin I would say
the one I'm using now, the Blush Suede, which is sweeter and I like it a bit more
anyway let's talk about the actual product, it's an oil
that you use to cleanse your skin, it's super hydrating and leaves the skin feel soft
and lovely scented
I fell in love with it and basically in the past months it's the only product I used in my shower
that's why I immediately restocked on it
it's pricey, just like every other Jo Malone product
but it's definitely a thumbs up
C'mon I can do this, I have 2 hair products, I'll show them together
even if they are quite different, but I need to optimize
this is a dry shampoo by Tony & Guy
I randomly bought it in the U.k. last summer and I really liked it
There's not much to say about it, it's a good dry shampoo, it leaves no white spots in the hair
it absorbs the excess of oiliness and it smells like you just left the hair dresser
you know that lovely scent your hair has when it's freshly styled? yep, that one!
This one is an Oribe texturing spray
I hope I'm pronuncing it correctly...oribe..
once again it's a pricey product
it's a quality brand, I like it because
I was going to spray it, but it's finished, I can't get in my head that these products are finished
anyway you spray it in your hair and it add texture and body to it
and it's my favourite texturizing spray
I already restocked on it, well to be honest I bought a back up straight away
because it's not easy to find in Italy, I think you can get it online on the Space NK web site
but you'll end up paying it a bit more because you'll pay it in pounds and you'll have the shipping costs too
so maybe it's not a great idea
but I warned you...
and now let's talk about some make up products
let's start with my all times favourite foundation
Make up For Ever Mel...
Mel?? Mat velvet +...MEL???
a cream foundation, I love it because it has a great coverage, but it still looks quite natural
it's matt, but not cackey and the shade n.35 is a perfect match for my skin tone
I already got a back up even if I alternate it with some other foundations
because I always hope you'll find the trurly perfect one for me
or least another one as good as this one to switch up a bit
anyway I already bought it again
Then I have a concealer, Maybelline age rewinder
I spoke about this product recently because I fell back in love with it
and in fact I already finished it up, it has a built in sponge, which is so up to date
it has an amazing coverage and you can find it in drugstores and the quality/price ratio is unbeatable
Then I have something I would call a concealer, even if it doesn't conceals anything
it's more an highlighter and it's by Dior, the skinflash
I keep buying this product even if it's expensive and not that effective
but I like how it brightens up my under eyes area and slightly hides my dark circles
it has a built in brush, you twist the other end and the product comes out
then you simply apply and blend it in
it's quite expensive, but in spite of that I already restocked it
but I think that the next time I won't, so I'm not sure I would recommend it
We're almost done here, almost done!
I have a Stila eye pencil, I don't know why I'm twisting it as it's obviously finished
I bought it a thousend years ago
I kind of liked it, yes,
Nothing amazing, but the thing I liked the most was that I didn't have to sharpen it
which is something I hate
and it was soft, very pigmented and perfect for a smoky eyes make up too
that said I didn't buy it again .
Second last product, a brow pencil, Charlotte Tilbury Brow lift, I think that's the name 'cause it's all rubbed off
It's a british brand, hard to find in Italy, unless you buy it online
on the Selfridges web site that delivers in Italy too
I really liked it, I think I already showed this to you,
anyway on one side you have a spooler to brush your eyebrows
and on the other side, by twisting the bottom, you get the pencil
It offers a natural look and I think it's available in 3 shades
I got the one in Cara, the darker one ans it's inspired by Cara DeLevingne
The other shades I think are inspired by Grace Kelly and Brooke Shields, but don't quote me on that
but I really recommend it, I've been using it non stop and I already restocked on it
I Really liked it, I really recommend it , everything really really!
The last product, YAY, I almost lost my voice
a By Terry lip balm, an high end product, that's worth every penny
I've been using it for the past 3 years I would say
maybe 2/ 2 and a half, every night
It's super hydrating, it makes the lips feel silky smooth
and when I wake up in the morning I can still feel it on my lips, which is amazing
it smells of roses and it's a best seller from the brand
and they recently developped a whole range of new rose products
and it's a smart choice
I don't know if you can get this in Italy, if not throught the Space NK web site
but if you'll travel to France you can easily find it in Sephora, as I already said about the foundation
I love it, I already restocked on it well to be honest I always buy this in pairs
because as I use it every night, even if it lasts a long time,
it tends to finish up when it's less easy to buy it
Yay, we made it to the end of this empties video which was quite full of things....
see what I did there? empty ...full..uh? uh?
Anyway if you're still with me congrats! Why don't we do a little game?
if you watched the video until the end comment "I Made it!" and I'll surely reply to you with a heart
because you deserve it for sure
That said I hope you enjoyed this video and that it was somehow helpful
I remind you that as always on my blog you'll find the products list with purchasing links
