This is a weekly feature mainly because I do not want to keep empties in my house for a month! Email your empties pictures to me at subbellaboxes at yahoo dot com. Don’t be shy!
Look at all the empties that our wonderful readers used up!
First up is Lisa!
Not soap Radio– I first received a sample of the Bathing With Sharks in Birchbox and fell in love with it! I can’t have any of that funky stuff in my soaps as I am prone to hand eczema so was overly excited to find something that smells good and doesn’t irritate my skin. My husband said the To Sleep full of sweet dreams smelt like jelly beans, which was a perfect description. The clover one was also delicious smelling. Have another bottle on its way from Birchbox now!
Deva Curl- Birchbox Curly Hair box- Needs no explanation! Best stuff in the world for curly hair, as long as you don’t mind no lather!
PC 1% Retinol- Liked the product but don’t know if I loved it and hated that one day I went to use and it was empty, no warning, no sputtering prior nothing…..just down right EMPTY! I need warning!
2% BHA from PC- Huge fan and have more on the way
MyChelle Serum- Received this in my Goodebox a few months back and it was a sad day when it was empty
Avitalon– Goodebox item- After not being overly thrilled with my PC Retinol I might just need to pay the money and buy this full size!
Estée Lauder- Revitalizing Supreme– Birchbox Estée Lauder month, I wasn’t ready for this to be empty!
Clinique Moisture Surge– Birchbox. Loved this as well
Fabulous Foaming Face Wash-Beauty Fix…..would not run out and buy this
Amika-Blowout Spray-Bitchbox– Smelled good and worked well
SubBella – I am impressed! I also agree it is a sad day when a Mychelle Serum is emptied. Great job with Birchbox empties! Yay on Deva Curl.

Next up is our resident Greek godess Artemis!
SK-II Facial Treatment Mask: This sheet mask leaves my skin looking hydrated, radiant and rested. I find the results last about a day and a half. I keep it on almost until the product is completely absorbed rather than the 20 minutes they recommend. I also get about 3-4 uses out of the essence that is left in the package.
Babytime by Episencial Snuggly Lotion: Technically this my kids’ empty, but since I got this in a Citrus Lane box, I’m counting it. I only use it on the baby (toddler has eczema so I’m very careful what I use with him) – he already has super soft skin, but I love the cherry scent. I will buy another lotion for the baby.
Dior J’adore Perfume: I love floral scents and this delivers. I’d rebuy but I have a huge stash of perfumes to get through.
John Frieda Luxurious Volume Shampoo and Conditioner Foils: I think I got this in a Walmart box. The package says it maintains volume and texture of freshly colored hair. I used it on 6-week old colored hair, but I did see a little more volume.
Caudalie Purifying Mask: This isn’t my favorite clay mask. I didn’t think it was as purifying and deep cleansing as I needed it to be.
Thanks! I hope you stay warm and dry this weekend! It’s snowing here!
SubBella – It’s going to snow tomorrow! I love the red background. I need to step up my photo game. Dior J’adore Perfume bottle is pretty.

Here are Heat7918’s empties!
Our wee beastie is modeling my empties including my favorite sunblock, Hawaiian Tropic Face, which I replace about every other week. the sun is strong here in LA year-round. Also is sample from Lush store, a facial mask, and control cream from Benedetta.
Princess Button face is showing a fun find for stocking stuffers, a set of 3eos, lip balms with stickers for about $8.
SubBella: Welcome back, Kelly! We missed you. I love the face Princess Button is making in the second photo. Great job on using sunscreen!

Here are my empties.
It was a good week. Everything is travel-size except for the facial oil.
I had two Balanced Guru Hair Oils opened for some unknown reason. I finished the second hair oil today. It is from the Nourish Beauty Box. The oil works wonders on my hair. The Davines Love Shampoo is from my September Birchbox. It had a grass scent and worked great in my hair. I may buy a full-size although I do not care for the scent. The Yarok Feed Your Shine came from a Birchbox order. I love both Balanced Guru and Yarok products.
The Level Shower Bombs came in the Yuzen Winter Beauty Box. T used one when he had a stuffy nose. It worked great for him. I used one because I wanted to try it out! It has a great strong scent that will clear up stuffiness. I will be using my discount code to order more.
The Ellovi Mint Butter came in my November Goodebox/Goodbeing Box. I am placing the butter on my Christmas wish list. I forgot to try it on my face. I loved it as a body butter. The Posh Skincare Bergamot Facial Oil came in the September Kloverbox. I liked it a lot!
Everyone did a great job!
What do you think of the empties? What empties have you used up this past week or month? Share below and anything else is on your mind.
Wonderful post, great job everyone, thank you so much! I love Ellovi, I need to try that shower bomb for my sinus allergies.
I love the chair and kitty pick, Kelly!
Thank you so much. :0)
Wow! That’s a lot of empties! Awesome.
I did put some of the Level shower bombs on my Amazon wishlist. Those will come in really handy in the winter.
I ordered the Mint Chocolate Ellovi after seeing it in your Goodbeing box review. I have only tried it for 2 nights and I did use it on my face. It did not aggravate my rosacea and it smells amazing!!! I love seeing everyones empties too!
I need to order it and try it on my rosacea!
Lisa – lots of empties, great job! I’ve been thinking of trying that Not Soap Radio…
Artemis – another great tip that I am now going to steal – check mask package for essence/serum, thank you!
Kelly – so great to have you back! Princess Button is a wonderful model for your empties. 🙂
Sub Bella – wonderful empties as always – you like reading about serums and masks and I like reading about scrubs, oils and butters! (p.s. – buy serum! lol)
Thank you , Heatness, ya’ll are so sweet.:0)
I need to check my extras box for serum. Otherwise, I will be ordering some.
