2025 empties

Bunch of empties from this year, some opened already in late 2024. I have a dehydrated combo skin and live in Northern Europe in coastal climate, where winters are especially awful to my skin due to cold outside and central heating inside.

Unfortunately I have no idea at this point how long things took to pan, I've been meaning to make this post for months. :') But gave my best guesstimate.

• Cosrx:
  • The 6 Peptide Skin Booster: nice step before other products, made my skin feel softer and slightly brighter. WRP, 10 months irregular use.
  • Propolis Synergy Toner: really nice soothing and hydrating toner, liked it especially during the winter. MRP, a year with very infrequent use.
• Tirtir The Mask Fit Make Up Fixer: I've used two bottles of this so far and it's kept my makeup from separating so works as intended in a non-humid climate. WRP, 5 months with almost daily use.
• Skin Aqua:
  • Super Moisture UV Gel (white and blue): HG sunscreen, lightweight and easy to apply, doesn't leave me feeling sticky. WRP, 2 months with daily use.
  • Sunplay UV Super Moisture Gel: I'm gonna be honest, I have no idea how this differs from the other one except maybe the smell, but it was a good sunscreen and I really enjoyed it. WNRP as I buy the other one now lol. Several months with infrequent use
• Curél Deep Moisture Spray x2: this is my first step after getting out of shower and it provides me the immediate relief my skin needs before I can get other products sorted. HG, I love this stuff. WRP, about 3 months with daily use.
• Naturie:
  • Skin Conditioner: HG watery toner, best layered. WRP, ~4 months with daily use.
  • Skin Conditioning Gel: I use this as a hydrating serum, and it feels so nice and soothing especially if I'm a little flushed. WRP, 6 months with daily use.
  • Skin Conditioning Milk: just realized I already included this in my previous empties post since it was "almost empty" in March. It lasted from June until end of May, unbelievable value for money. Use it as the AM moisturizer. WRP, almost a damn year with daily use.
• Sana Nameraka Honpo mist toner: I emptied a bigger version of this earlier, and now finished the small one. Used mainly on my body as I disliked it on my face. WNRP, use Curel now. Year with very infrequent use.
• dear, Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Cream in mini and jumbo: HG PM moisturizer, a little goes a long way. WRP, usually about 4 months with daily use.
• Shiseido Urea hand/foot cream in tube and jar: I love this stuff for my feet, it's thick but sinks in so well and doesn't leave stickiness. WRP
• Ihada:
  • Otona no Nikibi acne cream: this did help some of my inflamed pimples calm down and bring them to head – it's not a miracle cream but I liked it better than Lion Pair. WRP, almost a year with frequent use.
  • Yakuyo Night Pack: super thick moisturizer that I slapped on my cheeks on top of the Klairs cream during winter and woke up without feeling like my face was going to shrivel off. WRP, five months with daily use.
• Chi-Chi Miyahira hand cream: nice basic hand cream I got as a souvenir from Okinawa. Liked the lime & shikuwasa scent. WNRP
• Canmake Quick Lash Curler x3: my HG mascara, I like the small size, the wand, and that it's basically bomb proof. WRP, one lasts several months with almost daily use.
• Heroine Make Speedy mascara remover x2: the only thing that can get the Canmake mascara off. WRP, about 5 months with almost daily use.
• (not pictured) Muji Mild Cleansing Oil refill x2 (pre-reformulation): HG cleansing oil, incredibly mad it was reformulated. I have one more pouch of the old formula that I'm saving until I absolutely need to use it lol. About 4 months per refill pouch. WNRP unless they fix what they did to it.
• (not pictured) Kose Make Keep Mist ex cool: good make up fixer, MRP if I can find some other limited edition scent that isn't as offensive to me as the regular rose smell. 4 months with almost daily use.

Not completely emptied but used until no longer working:

• Iromikke liquid eyeliner: this brand was my surprise find from Donki last year and I've since bought several of their liquid eyeliners. Fun colors, really good glide, and stay on well enough for their 500JPY price. I had this color for a year but it wasn't suiting me as much as I hoped so used it until the package started leaking. WRP but not in this color.
• Kate Tokyo super sharp liner: it's a good eyeliner and super pigmented. Had it for a little over a year until it started to dry out. The brown color was too dark for me so WNRP.
• Rom&nd Nu Zero cushion: I could never get this sit nicely on my skin, it always pilled or started to separate. Used it for three to four months until I couldn't take it anymore and bought a better foundation. WNRP.
