January Empties

Here's what I've been using up in January -


Just be Tranquil Body & Massage Oil 30ml - I love this light and calming oil. See my review here. I'm sure to pick this up again once I get through some of my stash!

Intelligent Nutrients Harmonic Shampoo 60ml & Conditioner 60ml - I received these in a Souk Souk box. My first try from this brand. These are suitable for all hair types and I did enjoy using them. I'd like to try products for dry/damaged/coloured hair next.

Jurlique Rosewater Balancing Mist 50ml & 1 x 15ml - I simply love this and I repurchase it time and time again.  See my review here

Stila One Step Skintone Correcting Brightening Serum 30ml - I received this in the very first Selfridges box - see here and what an amazing box that was! I'm sad to have finished this all-in-one colour corrector, primer, brightener and serum. Sure to pick it up again sometime soon.

bodhi Desert Rose Rejuvenating Face Oil 30ml - one of my favourite face oils...ever! See my review here. I've super-happy I've got a replacement for this one! A product I'll buy again and again. Love it.

Dr Hauschka Almond Soothing Body Wash 10ml - one I've tried a couple of times in this size. A really lovely moisturising body wash and one I'd buy full size.

Pure Thoughts Tangerine & Jojoba Whipped Shea Butter 45g - another product I love. I think this was my third pot. Be sure to add it to my stash again as it smells fantastic and super moisturises the skin. Packaging has now changed to a handy tin.

Weleda Sea Buckthorn Creamy Body Wash 20ml and Body Oil 10ml - absolutely adore the Sea Buckthorn scent. It's so uplifting and refreshing. These went on my wishlist for #NoBuyJanuary week 1.  See my review here.

Caudalie Vinosource SOS Morning Eye Rescue 1.5ml - loved this eye cream. Would be keen to try a bigger sample.

Swell Advanced Volumising Shampoo 50ml and Advanced Volumising Conditioner 50ml - these were nice to use and I'd happily purchase them again.

Myroo Mint Tea Polishing Body Scrub 300g* - I loved this minty and invigorating scrub. One I'd definitely use again.  Myroo Mint Tea Bath Fizz 160g*. This was really lovely to use and made bath time a pleasure. See my review here.

bodhi Jasmine Falls Relaxing Bath & Shower Therapy 50ml - One of my favourite bodhi products so sure to purchase again.  See my initial review here. This particular one I got as a present from hubby. Will definitely buy again.

Skinlikes Natural Deodorant 70ml* - my favourite deodorant. Will buy it again. You can see my review here

Gielly Green Hand & Body Wash 50ml x 2 - love this body wash. Will buy again.  See my review here.

bare innocence Essence of Vali Balance Massage & Bath Oil sample* - loved this! See my review here.

Dr Bronner's Magic Soap Rose - this was okay but prefer the peppermint scent. Wouldn't buy this particular one again.

Savonnerie Gardeners Therapy Botanical Hand Wash 250ml* - this was lovely to use.  See my review here.

OV Naturals Rose Geranium Harmonising Organic Facial Oil 10ml* - this was fab to use and I'd consider buying it.  See my review here.

balance Me Supertoning Body Wash 100ml - this was nice enough but I didn't love the scent so wouldn't buy.

Hairy Jayne Light Conditioner 30ml - again, nice enough to use but I preferred the cream conditioner. See the set I picked up here.

One Love Skin Saviour Sample - this multi-purpose beauty balm was quite nice - you can use it as a cleanser, moisturiser or to mix with mineral foundation. There are other balms I prefer so wouldn't buy.

Therapie Cherish Skin Repair Serum 30ml - simply loved this beautiful body serum.  The aromatics used deliver a gorgeous scent but also have healing and regenerating properties. Definitely one I'll buy again (in full size!)

Savonnerie Gardeners Therapy - Hand Wash, Hand Lotion & Nutritive Lip Balm

I was contacted by Savonnerie London recently as they noticed I was a keen gardener and they asked if I would review their Gardeners Therapy Hand Wash* (250ml - £12.95), their Gardeners Therapy Hand Lotion* (250ml - £14.95) and their Nutritive Lip Balm* (£4.95).




Just perfect to try out after a day down the veggie plot!


my plot is the further away one in the pic - courgettes, lettuce, rocket, beetroot & carrots growing



Savonnerie was established in 1997 and it's aim was to create natural therapeutic products inspired by natures active botanical ingredients.  Products are handmade in the UK and are blended with the finest essential oils. The products are free from sulphates, parabens, artificial colours and fragrances, petrochemicals and animal ingredients. Products are suitable for vegetarians but a small number of products contain milk, beeswax or honey.


Gardeners Therapy Hand Wash* - as the bottle has a pump it's easy to get the required amount out.  It contains Bergamot & Thyme Essential oils and smells lovely.  Great at cleaning and refreshing the hands after a morning spent weeding!

Gardeners Therapy Hand Lotion* - again presented in a pump action bottle (this pair would make a great gift for a keen gardener - there is also a Gardeners Therapy Gift Set - see here).  This is scented with the same essential oils as the hand wash plus basil along with Vitamin E.  It leaves the hands soft, moisturised and delicately scented.





Nutritive Lip Balm* -  this is presented in a cute little tin making it easy to slip into a pocket or bag.  Made with Tamanu Oil, Camellia and Rosehip to keep lips soft and smooth. Flavoured with Peppermint and Vanilla extracts.  Apply to the lips as needed to keep them moisturised. I've also been using this on my cuticles!

Have you used any of these products?
