Empties - Products I've Used Up

Over the course of April I have ran out of quite a few products, so I decided to hang onto the empties. It's a really good time to give mini reviews of the products and decide if I want to repurchase them, or to look for something else.
Soap & Glory Hand Food This has been my go to hand cream for quite a few years now, you just can't go wrong with it. It smells delicious, leaves my hands feeling soft but not greasy, and is really affordable. Definite repurchase. Mac Cosmetics Brush Cleanser This is another go to product for me, cleaning my makeup brushes quickly and efficiently, enabling me to swap between colours with no fuss. I still do a weekly deep clean, but this is great for spot cleaning. I will keep using this until I find something I like as much. Bumble and Bumble Invisible Oil Hair Primer I really like this, it smooths my mid lengths to ends, as well as giving heat and UV protection. The only drawback for me is that I go through this really quickly, and it's fairly pricey. This is a travel size and it maybe lasted around two weeks. I would buy it again, but not consistently. Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara This is a fantastic mascara, and is really affordable. It gives length and plenty of volume, and doesn't take any effort to build it up. It's great for work days, as it takes no time at all. This is the second one I've used up, and I'd definitely buy another. La Roche Posay Effaclar Astringent Lotion This is a holy grail skincare product for me. I know, big statement. It's just so good! It goes deep into my skin and really strips out the bad stuff, leaving it feeling clean and fresh. It does have a bit of a tingle, which I love but other may not, but it doesn't sting. One bottle lasts me around 6 weeks, making the price fairly reasonable. Love it. Urban Decay Naked Skin Weightless Complete Coverage Concealer This is wonderful. Everything the bottle claims is true! It has full coverage, but doesn't cake up or feel heavy. It works under the eyes, as well as on redness and blemishes. A little goes a long way, so it doesn't run out too quickly. It's everything I want in a concealer, and I've already repurchased it. I use the shade Fair Neutral, in case you were wondering. Marc Jacobs Lola This was a gift from my parents, and smells divine. It has notes of peony and rose, as well as vanilla and musk. It's definitely the type of fragrance that appeals to me, although I didn't find that it lasted particularly well on me. The bottle looks so beautiful on a dressing table, it's a really pretty addition to a bedroom. I may or may not buy it again, as I don't usually stick to one perfume for long. I hope this was helpful! Which products have you used up this month?
