It's recycling week, so it's time for another round of Trash Talk, where I go through that Sephora bag under my makeup desk! This is a collective mix of empties, of skincare, makeup and hair products.

It's recycling week and my Sephora bag of empties have generously filled up, so it's time for Trash Talk, where I talk briefly about my recent empties from the past couple of months!
For full disclosure, three products in this post I previously received from 08.L USA for review purposes; I have already completed the reviews and just continued usage--those products will be marked with an asterisk (*). I will also include some Western products and some empties of samples.

It's that period of time where I gather my mask empties and talk about my trash! Here's some of the masks I've used recently, including a good amount from during the November mask challenge, over on Instagram. I've used a variety of brands, flavors and from a couple different countries!
There are a few that were received in exchange for an honest review so those will be marked in bold and an asterisk (*). For the masks that I had talk about on IG, I'll include those posts (in no particular order) plus some quick thoughts, under the cut!

I'm writing this while starting a new Korean drama called Goblin. It's so incredible as so far, it's the most visually captivating story I've ever seen, in terms of K-drama. It's actually a story! There's a plot!
Anyway, I'm here to talk about my recent empties (my trash). Whatever fills the small Sephora bag by my desk, I suppose! Also, tomorrow is recycling day...

Hello all! Following up from my AB empties a couple posts prior, I thought I'd do a quick overview of some non-AB empties! Here's some products that I've gradually been able to use lately, and some short thoughts for each product. Enjoy, pals!
tick marks (✔️✔️) - repurchased
confused faces (😕😕 or 😕✔️ ) considering or unsure of repurchasing
poop (💩💩) - not repurchasing

cleansers
e.l.f hydrating daily face cleanser ✔️✔️- This cleanser was light, non-foaming and affordable (five dollars for 110mL tube, from Target). I used it mostly on no makeup days and often at night, sometimes in the morning with a konjac sponge or just my clean hands. It's light and great for a no-make up day--I've already repurchased.
acure facial cleansing gel ✔️✔️- got this from a past ipsy bag but it kind of made me break out after I bought the full size recently from a local-ish upscale market, so I'm watching closely on my citrus usage. When I used the smaller size, the light gel is easy to glide over the skin. was easy to wash off too, without a major leftover citrus-y scent.
Anyway, it's that time again, where I briefly talk about my empties...primarily so I can do my recycling!! In this installment of Trash Talk, I'm sharing some quick thoughts of more than a couple products, some repurchases and some tried-and-true favourites.
Enjoy!
Hello, all! I'm here with another AB Empties post...but first, some updates!
EXO's D.O. dropped a full ver. of Tell Me (What Is Love) and like every other EXO stan, I'm struggling to breathe through this treacherous time. The full version of the track is just so smooth and emotional....! (SM, more like S&M!!!!) Download this track on iTunes and join the happy group suffering, guys!!!!
Also, I had my one year anniversary at my job just a few days ago and I've had my schedule switched around to be on early mornings instead of afternoons aka I got that position, for more experience working with mods and the dept. managers. I'm so excited for the change but I'm going to miss working with everyone in the afternoons/evenings. (gotta hit up a few people to exchange contacts because I'll likely not see them ever again despite working at the same place, but different times.)
Anyway, it's time to cull through my trash in my Sephora bag by my desk and pull out my next lot of AB empties (so I can recycle the containers, ahaha...).

It looks like a lot but well, it's not...! Here's a quick post of some empties, and a mini review of each product.
I want to preface that while I've repurchased both, I kind of regret that as neither seem to truly hydrate without drying out my skin. When I finish my bottle of each one, I likely won't repurchase--I want to find something AB that is more hydrating.

I've discovered that I've actually been using up more products than I had realised, so it's time for an AB edition of "trash talk": where I talk about my empties, do a quick review and then can throw out my trash. Enjoy!!
