  1. This is my Q4 (Sept. – Dec.) empties! This year I finished a total of 46 beauty products, including haircare, skincare, Make up, bodycare and nails (I did not count shampoo and conditioner this year, but I’ll start counting it next year). In total, I used $1347,39 worth of products (in my local currency, which is a lot of money for me, but only converts to about $240 USD). The total value only accounts for how much money I spent, so for products bought on sale, I only added how much I paid for it, not the full price. Also, I didn’t count gifts in the final price, only in the product count. I’m a bit surprised at how little make up I finished this year – only six items – despite wearing makeup about the same amount of times as I did the previous year, if not more (in 2024 I finished eleven makeup products). Alas, it was a good panning year. Here is a list of my Q4 empties, plus if I would repurchase or not:
    – Sallve Hidratante Renovador 180ml – great body moisturizer if you struggle with foliculities. I have already repurchased it.
    – O’Boticário Cuide-Se Bem body lotion in the scent “Deleite” – my favorite body lotion scent. I habe already repurchased it.
    – OBoticário Cuide-Se Bem body lotion in the scent “Doçura na Pessegura” 400ml – my second favorite body lotion scent. I plan on repurchasing it at some point, but I currently have way to many body lotion on back stock.
    – Lola From Rio Morte Súbita Spray Reparação Total – I couldn’t care less for it. It was an OK heat protection product, but it did nothing for my hair when it comes to repair and Shine. I would not repurchase.
    – Principia GL-02 face wash – I’ve used multiple of these and love it. I have already repurchased.
    – Dailus nail polish in Black Tie – a black polish I was able to pan this year. I would repurchase.
    – Risqué TopCoat nail polish – another product I couldn’t care less about. Not the worst, not the best. I would not repurchase.
    – Impala matte TopCoat nail polish – I liked it and I have already repurchased it, but I’m using one from another brand at the moment.
    – Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb in Fussy 4,5ml – for more indepth thought in it, you can check my post from when I finished it. I’m still not convinced any sephora price lip product is woth how much it costs. I would not repurchase.
    – Sallve Antioxidante Hidratante – I wanna say this is the third tube I’ve gone through of this vitamin C. I really love it. I will repurchase it at some point.
    – Quem Disse, Berenice? Cleansing oil – I’ve also gone through a few bottles of it over the years. I do really like it and would repurchase it at some point.
    – Lola From Rio Papo Reto hair oil 50ml – I hated this hair oil, it felt like I was applying vegetable oil to the ends of my hair, and applying too much would make my freshly washed hair look dirty. I would not repurchase it.
    – Elseve Glycolic Gloss Repairing Cream 250ml – I found it in my mom’s bathroom cupboard during a spring cleaning purge I did. It was very nice to use. I would repurchase.
