April 2022 Beauty, Skincare and Wellness Empties

April 2022 Beauty, Skincare and Wellness Empties

A great beauty and wellness product is one you use up to the last drop and then purchase again and again. Once again, this month, I've collected my beauty, skincare, and wellness empties, and I'm thrilled to share them with you!

Brand: Davroe
Product: Repair Senses - Revitalizing Shampoo, 100ml
Price: $12.95 for 100ml
Where did I get it: Gift at media event 
I would likely: Would consider purchasing, would certainly use if gifted
Rate: 3/5
My thoughts: I love that this product is made in Australia and is vegan-friendly. It is formulated to strengthen and protect the hair making it more resistant to colour fade. While it claims to be suitable for all hair types, it leaves my hair feeling a little drier than usual. I love the scent of this product and that it added a little extra shine and oomph to the colour.

Brand: Davroe
Product: Repair Senses - Revitalizing Conditioner, 100ml
Price: $12.95 for 100ml
Where did I get it: Gift at media event 
I would likely: Would consider purchasing, would certainly use if gifted
Rate: 3/5
My thoughts: I love that this product is made in Australia and is vegan-friendly. I used this conditioner after the shampoo. The gentle formula is designed to saturate each strand to deliver vitamins and nutrients to the hair. It left my hair feeling soft and clean. For my hair, I need something that gives a little extra moisture, and when using the Davroe Repair Senses Davroe Revitalizing range, I found I was reaching for my hair serums and oils more frequently.

Brand: TLW 
Product: Let's Get Naked Frizz Fighter, 20ml
Price: $25 for 20ml
Where did I get it: Gifted through Bellabox influencer collaboration 
I would likely: Would certainly use if gifted
Rate: 2.5/5
My thoughts: A few things I love about this hair serum; it is made in Melbourne, Australia and is not tested on animals. It is formulated with keratin and silk protein to increase manageability, hydrate and strengthen hair, and help eliminate frizz. Yes, I found that it did help manage my frizz and improve my hair's manageability. What I didn't particularly like about the product was that it felt like it weighed my hair down; this might be due to the sunscreen in the product.

Brand: Dr Dennis Gross
Product: Alpha Beta Daily Glow Moisture, 30ml
Price: Not known, product has been discontinued
Where did I get it: Purchased from Mecca
I would likely: Would certainly use if gifted
Rate: 2.5/5
My thoughts: It is a lightweight, oil-free moisturiser that promises to provide a glow. I like a gradual tanner for my face to give me that sun-kissed look; however, with this product, I didn't notice any difference in the colour of my skin. The plus side of this product was that I found the lightweight and oil-free moisturiser to be hydrating and perfect for applying in the morning.

Brand: Forty Fathoms
Product: Renewal Cream, 50ml
Price: $62.95 for 50ml
Where did I get it: Gifted through Bellabox influencer collaboration 
I would likely: Would consider purchasing, would certainly use if gifted
Rate: 4/5
My thoughts: The Skin Regenerator Renewal Cream contains Fucus Vesiculosus extract, which according to Forty Fathoms, protects the skin from the damaging effects of free radicals and re-activates your skin’s natural ability to restore itself. I find the formula ideal for my outdoor lifestyle because it protects and rejuvenates the skin before and after sun exposure. I turned to this product when my skin was feeling dry and needed extra protection and moisture.
