Empties posts are nothing new to Lost In Lipstick; I used to post them once a month. However, I began to get bored of them and felt like writing them was a chore. I still love reading empties posts and watching empties videos on YouTube and I still save my empties because I'm a creature of habit. Because of this, I have decided to start them up again but they're going to numbered so I don't feel any pressure to publish once a month.

I absolutely loved using ESPA Balancing Herbal Spafresh Spritzer everyday. It's so refreshing and the smell is gorgeous. This is what got me into facial sprays and I'm definitely after another luxury one like this. Any recommendations? 

I've used two or three cans of COLAB Dry Shampoo in Paris now. It's definitely my favorite dry shampoo. I've only ever tried the Paris fragrance up to now but I want to try some of the other scents. I think I'm probably just drawn to the pink packaging! 

Of all the Soap & Glory products I've tried, I don't think I've found one I didn't like. Smoothie Star Body Milk is a great body moisturiser if you're in a rush. Because of the pump, it's easier to apply than a body butter and it absorbs really quickly. The scent isn't too overpowering so it's great for people who don't like strong scents.

I have already repurchased Clarins Gentle Exfoliator Brightening Toner. It's a great exfoliating toner but I only use it once or twice a week as it's too much for everyday use. Every morning I use the Pixi Glow Tonic for reference. The Clarins toner has a subtle scent that I actually really love. 

This was my second bottle of Moroccanoil Treatment and I'm currently working my way through my third! It's safe to say I'm a fan! I've been using it for over two years now and I can't see that changing. It's definitely improved the texture of my hair and it's now more manageable. It also helps to speed up the drying process which is a bonus when you have so much hair like me!

I actually bought Diptyque L'Ombre Dans L'eau at the end of 2013 in the half price sale. It lasted me almost two years but I didn't use it everyday. I enjoyed this perfume but I have to admit the scent didn't last very long. Because of this, I definitely wouldn't pay full price for a Diptyque fragrance again. I might be tempted by half price again though!!

I received this Bee Good Honey & Wild Water Mint 3 in 1 Cleansing Water in a goodie bag and used it when my previous cleanser had ran out. Bee Good is a new brand to me and I enjoyed using this product so I will definitely be checking out their products in the future. Can you recommend any?

I have to be honest that Origins Make A Difference Plus + Rejuvenating Moisturiser wasn't for my skin. It didn't suit my skin type but I loved the scent and texture so much that I continued to use it which is probably not a good thing! 

I can't remember which website I got this from but I remember getting two Dainty Doll Powder Blushers for £1.99 each. I think they had been discontinued or something. The shade that I used up was a beautiful pale pink and I'm looking to replace it with a NARS blusher this year. 

I first used No7 Stay Perfect Mascara for my wedding day and it was a complete gamble that paid off! I love the mascara and as I mentioned in my 2015 favourites, I recently repurchased it and fell in love. It's just a pain to remove but I'm going to invest in a really good eye makeup remover this year so I can continue purchasing it.
