November Empties

I'm not going to use anything else up this month. So here's my November empties:



Jo Malone Grapefruit Bath Oil 250ml - I received this as a present from hubby a good few birthdays ago! Lovely to use and I'd defintely like to try again. Maybe in a different scent. Made for a luxurious soak.

bodhi & birch Sicilian Rose Body Oil 100ml* - the trio of body oils are the latest launch from bodhi & birch and this oil is simply divine. See my review HERE. This beautiful oil will definitely be replenished!

Green People Joyful Body Wash 100ml* - with fab uplifting scent this body wash gently cleanses and leaves the skin delicately scented. LOVE! See my review HERE.

2 x 10ml MOA Fortifying Green Bath Potion - one of my favourite bath products. See my review HERE. I always have this in my stash and recently cracked open a new bottle.

Schmidt's Bergamot & Lime Deodorant 92g - this is a staple for me as it just works! Got a new one ready to use. See my review HERE. As long as it's still easy to get in the UK I'll keep buying.

YTTP Age Prevention Cleanser trial size - see my review HERE. It's definitely one I'd consider buying.


Mio Liquid Yoga Restorative Bath Soak 53ml - this is a nice bath soak. Once my stash reduces a bit I'd buy.

Lush Salted Coconut Hand Scrub 130g - loved this. I also used it as a body scrub. Would repurchase. See my review HERE.

Balm Balm Neroli Floral Water Hydrosol 100ml* - which was gorgeous to use and I'll buy it when my stash reduces a bit. See my review HERE.

Rossi Uvema Rose & Rosemary Face Toning Mist 100ml* - this was lovely to use and lasted ages. See my review HERE. Again, I've got a load of toners on the go so I wouldn't buy just now.

Willow Organic Vitamin & Bamboo Exfoliating Body Wash Blissful Peace Rose & Oud 50ml* - the scent of this body wash is gorgeous and it makes for pampering treat. See my review HERE. When my stash reduces a bit I'll buy full size.

Ruth Romano Lemongrass Hand Wash 250ml - love this! It has an uplifting scent and is gorgeous! See my review HERE. I've got another one in my stash to use.



Carol Joy London Collagen Eye Mask x 1* - a real luxe treat which firms and brightens the eye area. See my review HERE.

Emma Hardie Moringa Cleansing Balm 5g - I used to use this years ago so it was nice to try it out again. I've got a stash of balms to use but I'd consider buying it again at some point.

Sachajuan Overnight Hair Repair sachet - I got a couple of uses out of this sachet and it was nice to use. Can't say I noticed much difference to the look or feel of my hair though.

Nuxe Reve de Miel Face Cleansing & Make Up Remover Gel 15ml - loved this honey scented cleansing gel. Full size is on the wishlist.

Bamford Rose Camomile & Lemon Hand & Body Lotion 3ml - this was a super luxe hand cream with a simply divine scent. Would love this full size.

AnnMarie Skincare Anti-Aging Serum sample* - this range is beautiful. See my review HERE. My serum stash is huge but I'd maybe buy this in the future.

Myroo Starflower & Orange Blossom Facial Cleanser sample & Starflower & Orange Blossom Skin Boost Facial Serum sample. Loved both of these minis. See my review HERE and HERE. I'll buy when my stash reduces a bit as these were lovely to re-visit.

Paul Mitchell Awapuhi Shampoo 7.4ml sachet - this gave me 2 uses and I remember why I loved it so much. Full size on the wishlist!

What have you been using up this month?

Carol Joy London: Pure Collagen Spray & Pure Collagen Eye Mask



I've been trying out the two products* from the Pure Collagen Collection by Carol Joy London which is an luxurious anti-ageing skincare line created by Carol Joy Hatton and available ONLINE or from The Dorchester Spa, London.

The Carol Joy London range (which includes haircare) is super luxe and products contain ingredients like pure collagen, golden millet oil, caviar algae and hyaluronic acid.

The collection is made using 100% pure collagen and plant stem cells. Potently active ingredients recapture vitality makes the skin look and feel like you've just had a facial.

The Pure Collagen Spray (£100 - 50ml)* helps to prevent signs of ageing using cutting edge technology to rejuvenate and revitalise the skin. As skin collagen production declines approximately 1% per year after the age of 30 this spray helps to promotes increased cell renewal, hydrates, smoothes and plumps up fine lines and wrinkles adding vitality and making the skin feel firmer and looking radiant.

To use: shake the can and spray 6 times over the face, neck and decolletage evenly and often.

My thoughts? This is a real luxury treat which I've enjoyed using AM/PM after cleansing and spritzing on my skin when I feel it needs a boost. 

The Pure Collagen Eye Mask (£80 for 4 pairs)* are clinically proven to reduce fine lines and wrinkles around the eye area. These masks which contain collagen peptides, native collagen fibres and hyaluronic acid which all help to replenish depleted levels of epidermal moisture, deeply hydrating and plumping the delicate eye area. They soothe and refresh and are perfect to use before a special event (or if finances allow on a weekly basis!)

To use: Burst the liquid capsule to release the activating lotion into the collagen mask chamber, making sure the masks are saturated in the lotion before applying to the eye contour and leaving for 15 minutes. Apply eye cream after use.

My thoughts? I absolutely love these masks! They make my eyes look refreshed, dark circles are reduced and the eye area feels firmer and nourished with fine lines softened.

The range is definitely on the more expensive side but is a real treat and one which I'd recommend. See more information HERE.
