Beauty Empties - What's AMAZING & What To Skip

[@dogwalker97]

I go through cleansing balm quickly. I remember some expert(maybe it was Bobbi Brown) indicating that many times when people say a cleansing balm or cleansing oil doesn’t remove makeup well, it’s because they aren’t using enough product. When I’ve experimented with less vs more with cleansing balm and oil, it seems to be true that within limits, more is better. Thank you for the video

[@thelipstickgal]

Yes, I use a giant glob to break up my mascara and waterproof liner. After I've slathered it all over my face and broken up the makeup, I use a lot of water to emulsify the balm and help wash away the makeup. Then I take a clean face cloth and get into all the nooks and crannies. After that, I use a foaming cleanser and it's the best clean! Thanks so much for watching today.

[@dogwalker97]

@ Estée Lauder has a nice cleansing balm too. I want to try the Estée jelly cleanser you had in the video today too

[@grespinosa]

I get so giddy whenever a youtuber mentions products I’ve actually tried myself! 🤗. I absolutely love the Heimish Artless Glow Base sunscreen, I think the faint fragrance is delicious! I tried the Ole Henriksen lip product this summer, absolutely loved it on my lips but trying not to use it too frequently since it costs so much more than my other balmy lip products! 😊

[@thelipstickgal]

@@grespinosa it's such a great peptide lip balm, but you're right, the price is up there. Mine is gone so I'll need another. We really like the Heimish artless glow base in this house. It's my oldest go to spf, and I like it a lot too. Thanks so much for watching.

[@lisasmith7]

I really like the Benifit brow setter. I am going shopping tomorrow. Candle day at bbw. Hitting up Sephora, too. I am up to my eye balls in mascara. I am always getting body care. I love scrubs and lotions and potions. I hope you're feeling good. Sending prayers. ❌️⭕️

[@unposhnails3366]

Love your lipstick shade today! I love the Lash Idole mascara.

[@thelipstickgal]

Thanks, It's the Tir Tir Waterism Balm in 02 Coral. I love it too, it's so cushy and hydrating. I love the sheer coral tint it offers. Thanks so much for watching, and I always love a Lancome mascara!

[@carolynpritchard9827]

I go thru Clinique AllAboutEyes. I can put it on under makeup and just when I need some simple eye area hydration...have used in for years.😊

[@thelipstickgal]

@@carolynpritchard9827 I love a good, hydrating eye cream. Sounds like you found the best one for you. ❤️

[@megdvs21]

What a great list of products you’ve gone through 😀 my empties is most often my face and neck skin care and body cleanser I buy the big value size of my shampoo and conditioner from the company I buy from so I don’t go through that as often in cosmetics the big ones I go through most often are liners ( lips & eyes ) and mascaras and brow pencils

[@thelipstickgal]

Yes, I'm surprised I didn't have any brow pencils in this. I love the products I'm using right now, but there are a few that I didn't love. Thanks so much for sharing what you go through regularly, and thanks for making time to watch.

[@Christine-uf3oj]

I love your makeup today. Please tell me what is on your eyes! I want to do my eyes like yours! The makeup I go through the most is eyebrow stuff- I find I purchase brow products the most often because I use it up so fast. Second to that is powder- I buy a lot of powder. Most lip balms don't work well for me so I only buy a specific fragrance-free kind, but I'm definitely repurchasing it year round. The other items I purchase often due to using them up are concealer and mascara. But I truly go through brow products fast. I don't seem to go through lipstick because I have so much! Lipstick is the most fun to purchase, though!

[@thelipstickgal]

@@Christine-uf3oj I love buying a lipstick! 🥰💄 I'm wearing a liquid eyeshadow from About Face in "Smell B4 Rain" and a Moira lucent cream shadow in Jupiter. I have this entire look in a video from earlier this week. It's the new at the drugstore video that went up on Monday. I wish I plowed through my concealers and lip balms as quickly as you do. I have so many that I never seem to finish one. (Except the Glossier) 😁 Thanks so much for watching today and happy holidays!

[@mysticmom]

Bought the Great Body Relief your rec, seems like it helps the sensitive skin on my chest, but I find it very strong smelling. It is a natural smell from the ingredients, but to my nose, not a pleasant one. Just a note to others - I know we all experience scent differently 😊

[@thelipstickgal]

Thanks so much for sharing your experience. I suppose I don't smell it as much since I'm using it on my legs mostly. They get super dry in the heat of summer and the dead of winter. My arms don't get as dry, so they often go un-moisturized. My neck and chest get my face products shared around. I do notice the scent with the Great Barrier Relief, and I'm sure it's from the Tamanu oil, but it doesn't linger enough to bother me. I'm sorry that it's been an issue for you, but thanks again for letting us know your experience.

[@WendyS1822]

You’re glowing today - love the makeup and that lip color on you is perfection!! Empties are so satisfying 😊! Hope you’re feeling well - happy holidays to you and your family. ❤

[@thelipstickgal]

Happy Holidays! Thanks so much for the compliment. The lipstick is the TirTir Waterism Balm in 02 Coral. It's such a pretty, hydrating, and cushy lip product. Not quite a lipstick, not quite a balm, but the best of both worlds. Thanks so much for watching today.

[@lisak7997]

Thank you for sharing ❤

[@thelipstickgal]

@@lisak7997 thanks for watching.

[@QuinceyG]

Its so satisfying to see empties. 😊 I find that the only beauty related products that I go thru are Brow and Skin Care 😂😂.

[@thelipstickgal]

I go through a lot of mascaras, brow products and skincare. I also ALWAYS have hair styling products, because if I didn't use them, I'd look like a dandelion gone to seed.

[@juliewells4282]

Happy holidays to you and your family from your Idaho neighbor-I’m near Coeur d’Alene. I love waking up to your videos! 😊

[@thelipstickgal]

Happy Holidays neighbor! I LOVE Coeur d'Alene. It's been a while since I've been there, but I remember spending a lovely weekend at the hotel on the lake. It was fall, so the leaves were turning, and the weather wasn't too cold. It was perfect for exploring the down. So charming, and a beautiful corner of the PNW. Thanks so much for watching today. I'm about 4 hours away in SE Washington.

[@makeupbyblowfish7975]

I constantly buy curl creams, body wash and cleansing balms. I love trying new stuff for my curls and not all of them work so I have a ton of products for my hair just laying around 😂 I’m trying to use them on my soon five year old as well.

[@thelipstickgal]

@@makeupbyblowfish7975 let's not talk about the curl cream/styling product graveyard. 🤭 I have so much that I'll likely never use. I'm always getting more of these two cleansing balms, they're my favorites. Thanks so much for watching today.

[@makeupbyblowfish7975]

@ no let’s ignore the graveyard! I like the Heimish but have you tried the balm from Beauty of Joseon? I think that is a tad bit better 😊

[@sgreene2058]

I bought the Glossier Balm Dot Com this week and they are divine. 💚

[@thelipstickgal]

Ooh, I'm so glad you like them! My favorites are the Strawberry, Coconut and the Mango. I still have yet to try the fig, but I always seem to love the limited edition ones they come out with for holiday. (hot cocoa, cookie butter, espresso, biscotti) I've got Cookie Butters strewn throughout the house in nearly every room. I LOVE these balms, and I'm delighted you like them too!

[@pattid2499]

Love your lipstick again! Is it Lisa Eldridge Audrey?

[@thelipstickgal]

@@pattid2499 thanks so much. This is from Tir Tir and I got it on Amazon. It's the waterism glow balm in shade 02 coral. It's lovely.

[@lvvl1005]

I love the way the Osea smells, but it’s not hydrating enough for me. I can use it occasionally in the summer. I finished my mini size and never repurchased. I have extremely dry, sensitive skin on my body so I can only use certain products. Alpha Skin Care makes the best glycolic acid body lotion. I get it on Amazon. It’s perfect for me because it exfoliates your body the same way you’d use glycolic acid on your face and it’s super hydrating. It doesn’t smell good, but it dissipates quickly lol. I pretty much only use that and the La Roche Posay body lotion and body cream. Face and body skin care products are the things I go through the most. Lancôme mascaras are the best!

[@juliewells4282]

Alpha Skin glycolic lotion is great! I use it on the KP on my upper arms, works really well. 😊

[@lvvl1005]

@ I struggle with kp as well. They also make a glycolic acid facial serum that I use regularly. My skin improved so much when I started using their products. And they are so affordable!

[@thelipstickgal]

Yes, I love a lancome mascara. I'll have to try the Alpha Skin Care glycolic acid body lotion. I need something that gets rid of my flake and hydrates at the same time. Thanks for the recommendation.

[@mysticmom]

OK, I was trying really hard to keep my promise but…..the Lancôme eyelash primer is $30 for .18 oz vs. the BP one for $10 and you get .37 oz! Just sayin 😂

[@thelipstickgal]

@@mysticmom yep, BP had some amazing stuff.
