Empties: June & July 2017

I decided to do a combo for June and July, which means I've got quite a lot of products to talk about this time. There's a nice mix of everything, including makeup, which is always the best part.

Empties: April 2017

Apologies are in order for basically not blogging anymore, besides favourites and empties posts. This time I'm even skipping the favourites one. As I've mentioned before, I started a new job in April. I have a lot of responsibillities, everything is new and I barely have time to go home and sleep. For now, work is of course a priority and the blog is on a semi-pause. I'm sure you understand. I do want to stay on top of my empties posts though, as I love to keep the tally throughout the year. So, while quite late, better late than never; here are my empties for the month of April.

Empties: March 2017

March has been massive for empties! I finished heaps, and on top of that ended up de-cluttering quite a bit of makeup. It's been approximatively 2 years since I did a massive declutter last. There's a lot of stuff I kept then that I've gotten rid of now because I either just wasn't using it, or I just wanted to move on.

Empties: February 2016

Now it's time for another monthly empties post! February was just 29 days, but I've managed to finish off quite a bit. A lot of full-size items, some samples and some makeup as well, which I am especially excited about.

Empties: Januar 2016

Here we go again. It's the start of a whole new year, and I'm starting a whole new empties tally with quite a bang. I mentioned in my December empties that while I did manage to finish up a few extra things to add to my 2015 numbers, a lot I didn't quite finish, and they are indeed in the first post of 2016 instead. There's fewer sachets and samples, though some, and mostly all full size products.

2015 Favourites: The Makeup

Instead of December favourites I thought I'd follow tradition and do my yearly favourites instead. Like before I've separated the posts into different categories, starting here with my makeup favourites. I've also decided to just list the products with links to reviews of the products I have reviewed. It would just take too long to write about all of the products, plus it would all probably be a lot of amazing, fantastic and incredible's over and over again. I'll put it this way; if it's in this post, or any of the others, I absolutely love the product. If there's something I've talked about loving before that isn't in here, it doesn't mean I don't still love it. There'll be a lot of favourite products of mine that won't be featured here, I just had to narrow it down somehow, and these are the products I ended up with.

Empties: July 2015

I guess I kind of ended up taking a bit of an unplanned break from the blog, sorry guys! I had my brothers wedding and then I've felt a bit under the weather so this post has taken a while to finish. There's quite a lot of stuff here though, which I'm of course excited about. There's also a lot of good products so you'll probably get a mini review of at least something you've been curious about!

Empties: June 2015

Like I warned in my May Empties this month's was going to be quite a massive month! I've got quite a lot of products for you, in every category - so let's just jump right in!

Empties: May 2015

About a week ago it seemed like I'd have the smallest empties post to date. I made sure to focus on a few things that were almost finished, so I've still got a few products to show you! There's a few products with the tiniest amount left that I really thought I'd have finished by this post, but I didn't, so those will show up in my June post instead I guess! There's still a few things in here that I've been working on for a while, and some jumbo sized products which is always fun as it clears up a lot of space.

Empties: April 2015

April wasn't the most massive month I've done in terms of empties, but the products I finished were a lot that I've been working on for a while so it's quite exciting nonetheless. There's also quite a few full-size items, and some items I'm excited to tell you about that I never got around to do a full review on. So let's jump right in!

Empties: March 2015

I went through my makeup last month and found a few things to get rid of again. The way things are going with me buying a lot less makeup overall, using stuff up and being able to "let go" of more and more stuff I think I might have a much more condensed and manageable "collection" by the end of the year, which is very exciting to me. I also finished quite a few skincare items and other bits that I've been working on for a while, like a face mask. There's also a few staples in here. Overall it's a good one, and one I hope to match next month!

Favourites: March 2015

Spring is finally officially here! The snow has almost all disappeared in Oslo and while it's still not super warm, I've been enjoying the milder weather with some long walks around town with my boyfriend. I'm about to head up to the cabin to celebrate easter with my family, but thought I'd do a quick post about my March favourites before I go!

Favourites: February 2015

It's crazy how much shorter February feels every year even though it's just missing a few days. February was a fun month for me. I had a lot to do at school with presentations and exams, but I also took a trip to Copenhagen with my boyfriend which was a lot of fun. We just enjoyed the city with good food, good wine and a bit of shopping. If you haven't been to Copenhagen I really recommend going, it's a really nice city. But now for some beauty recommendations!

Empties: January 2015

Things have been quiet around here lately, and I do apologise. I was the lucky recipient of the flu virus, and on my birthday of all days as well - and have been consequently completely out of business for over a week. It was all pretty horrible, but the cloud is slowly lifting and I'm almost back in full form. To start off I'll run through the first empties post for the year!

Products I Want To Use Up: Update #4

I figured it was time to do an update on my progress as we've moved into a new year! Especially as I've managed to finish three more products and making good progress with others. If you missed it, I've decided to have this more as an always-ongoing project rather than a finish-by-the-end-of-the-year specific. This means that I'll keep on adding more items as I finish them, always having 10 "on the go".

2014 Favourites: The Makeup

Now for my second installment of my 2014 Favourites; The Makeup! I decided not to pick due to category this year, but simply pull out the things I've loved and used a lot this year. Some categories have several products, some have none. These are products I both discovered this year, but also old loves that continued to hold their place as firm favourites for another year. I'm simply listing the products by name, but as always - please do leave any questions you may have in the comments section.

Empties: November 2014

Exams finally finished and somehow I've been even more exhausted since. I think all the stress and nerves and not sleeping very well finally caught up to me after it all finished. Fortunately we've had a lovely christmas here. It finally snowed and everywhere is white and beautiful. I've been to dinners and lunches, spending time with family and friends. I've not had too much time to sit down and work on the blog, but I really wanted to stick to getting my november empties up so I've put in ten minutes here and there whenever I've had the chance. Now the post is finally finished so up it goes on christmas eve! So if anyone finds themselves in a moment of boredom perhaps this can be a fun "little" post to read. I hope you are all having a wonderful christmas or holiday season and want to wish you all an amazing new year!

Products I Want To Use Up: Update #3

It's been about three months since my last update, so I thought it was about the right time to do another one. Especially as I've finished quite a few products! I also wanted to get started on a couple of new ones in decent time before the year ends. To compare the two posts and see my progress, or if you haven't read the last update you can go here.

Empties: September 2014

Sorry for the picture seeming kind of flipped to the side. I didn't think of making the products face the way I would be taking the picture, rather than where I was standing when laying them out. Quite silly of me, but lesson learned! For now, if you don't mind tilting your head to the side! September has been a long month. I've gone from having just started school to starting to plan for exams already. There's also been a few personal things, a funeral, but a lot of nice experiences as well. I went to Dublin for a long weekend, which was very nice. I did a bit of shopping, eating, and visiting. I'm also a bit in "spring-cleaning" mode, or fall-cleaning as it would be. I've been clearing out closets, really trying to use body and hair care products up.. I always get this way in the fall, instead of spring. I think it might be because I still see the "new year" as starting in the fall.. I know it doesn't technically, but as a student it just makes more sense. However, this is supposed to be about empties and not my cleaning habits, so I'll shut up now and move onto the quite a few products I got through the last month!

Products I Want To Use Up: Update #2

This post is so so overdue. I meant to update you on my progress ages ago, but each time I was so close to finishing another product I wanted to wait, and then that happened again and again. Finally I decided it was time for an update, mostly as I've finished almost everything, but then none of my pictures would turn out the way I liked - I've realised since I think my camera had a bit of a heatstroke with the heat we've been having here. I've also realised it's hard to make a whole lot of empty and well-used products look very beautiful, so we will all have to just look past that, and focus on the true objective of these posts; to finish up products!
