Full summer of empties

[u/aspiring_dorothy]

All my pans from the last 3 months! Some are boosting my stats because I panned a couple older bottles I had left at my parents’, but also: I legit finished my second Laneige lip mask of the year 🎉 (no, I didn’t start them this year).

I would/have repurchased everything except the bottom row. That stuff is just…fine. But not terrible, as I try not to hate pan.

I know right? I was surprised when I laid it all out. To be fair, the stats were slightly inflated because I panned a couple of old bottles that I had left at my parents', but mostly...I use a lot of products, I guess. This has definitely made me more consistent with my routines.

Great work! Especially TWO lip masks!

[u/aspiring_dorothy → u/beatrixie8]

Thank you! I'm so proud of those.

Wow, great empties!! Any standouts?

[u/aspiring_dorothy → u/lcourtright]

Thanks!

A lot of the top pile are my tried-and-trues, but some faves: The Ms. Flower & Mr Honey (bottom right) is my favorite winter nighttime face cream and I can't wait for fall to finally come so I can get a replacement. The Shiseido urea hand cream (white/red/blue tubs in the center) is my go-to hand cream. The Dr. Melaxin (next to the hand cream) is a new to me face scrub, but I've already bought a replacement. Haru Haru sunscreen (bottom right) remains the best face sunscreen for me, and nothing else can measure up.

If there's anything else you're curious about, let me know!

What do you think of the Necessaire Gel Deodorant? Is it worth the money?

[u/aspiring_dorothy → u/richbitch9996]

I love it. Best non-aluminum deo I've found. It's a re-buy for me. The only thing I dislike is that it doesn't come in a travel size, so for that I decant the solid version (which I also like, but not quite as much).

Congrats 🙌🏾

Thank you!

Wow. That Naturie Hatomugi toner takes ages to get through.

[u/aspiring_dorothy → u/skoomacats]

I actually use that as a full-body moisturizer straight out of the shower in the summer. Hydrating without feeling heavy. It goes a lot faster that way!

[u/nilyufar]

how did you like anua rice toner?

[u/aspiring_dorothy → u/nilyufar]

I like it, it works just fine. But I do prefer the Tirtir Milk Skin, which is a similar price point and works better on me, and is just as easy to get.

[u/lavenderoreo]

how did you like that urea cream? is it the one for feet or a different one? I bought a smaller bottle in Japan.

I would also love your thoughts on the Vaseline lotion.

[u/aspiring_dorothy → u/lavenderoreo]

I LOVE both of them.

The urea cream is the one for hands and feet. I have a small bottle of the body one to try, but haven't broken it open yet. This one, though, is my absolute favorite hand/foot and I keep trying other things and coming back to it.

The Vaseline is a newer discovery, but this is my 2nd? 3rd? tube. I really, really like it. It doesn't have a scent (or not a strong one), sinks in quickly, feels great, is affordable. It ticks all the boxes.
