Skincare Empties I have such a backlog of empties at this point that I don’t even know for sure when exactly I emptied them all but I am working on getting all caught up with sharing them. Key: 🎁: PR/Gifted 🐶: Cruelty Free 🌿: Vegan 🌹: Fragranced 📄: Review In Feed ✨: Affiliate (Discount code and link in bio) @farmacybeauty Honey Grail🎁🐶🌹✨ : This facial oil is super thick and viscous, perfect for when my skin is feeling extra dry and needs a little or a lot of extra TLC. I love this oil especially for wintertime use because it is definitely on the heavier side, but it keeps my dry skin feeling soft and moisturized all night long! @notpot Oat Puff CBD Eczema Cream 🎁🐶🌿📄: I can’t get enough of this lotion! This lotion lived on my nightstand and I used it as a cure-all for itchiness and dry patches. I love how it feels on the skin and soothes irritated, itchy skin. It also smells lovely, think pleasant vanilla oat milk. @supergoop Play 100% Mineral Lotion SPF 50🎁🐶🌿: I am not a huge mineral SPF person especially for body use, but I find this one to be pleasant enough for a high SPF body sunscreen. It does have a minor white cast on my (pale) skin, so I imagine this isn’t suitable for all skin tones. This SPF came in very handy while I was visiting Maui as non-physical sunscreens are banned there. @paulaschoice Replenishing Moisturizer 🎁🐶🌿📄: Even when my skin is at its most sensitive and angry, this moisturizer always feels soothing and nourishing. This cream is quite rich, nourishing, and occlusive, completely locking in moisture all night long. It’s perfect for my very dry skin, especially for nighttime use during winter. @cocokind Oat to Milk Cleanser🎁🐶🌿📄: I am obsessed with this budget friendly cleanser. First off, it has an absolutely stunning and decadent balmy texture that beautifully transforms into a more creamy/milky one. This affordable cleanser has the most superb experience texturally and leaves my dry skin feeling hydrated and refreshed. What did you most recently empty?

It has a pleasant, dewy-radiant finish that doesn’t look or feel greasy on my dry skin.

It’s deeply nourishing and moisturizing and has an incredibly lightweight feel on the skin. The oil leaves my skin feeling moisturized and radiant without feeling greasy or heavy on the skin at all.

Undaria Algae Body Butter: The texture of this body butter is gorgeous! Its rich and buttery, glides over the skin, and absorbs quickly.
