1
I have a huge bag of empty products that I want to talk through because I love empties.
2
You guys know this.
3
And I've been on a mission to try to reuse, no, use up all of my beauty products.
4
Not all of them, but really make a conscious effort to just use things up.
5
And I'm sorry, Effie's just having a private moment.
6
You good, girl?
7
You good?
8
the one time I put the camera on.
9
Right, let's do an empties video.
10
Pulling them out at random, I just finished the Estrid Everyday Body Lotion.
11
I actually just finished this today.
12
Just a good old-fashioned body lotion, and I love the packaging, and it's very lightweight.
13
What I like to do is mix a little bit of the Mirror Water Smooth body oil in with my lotion.
14
So just like a simple lotion, mix a little bit of the body oil in there and you get sort of the benefits of both.
15
And then obviously smooth body oil from my own brand, Mirror Water, just smells so good, like a magical forest.
16
And it just helps make me feel calm.
17
So of course I finished another one of those.
18
I also finished a deodorant.
19
This is the famous salt and stone deodorant.
20
I had the saffron and cedar scent and I really liked it.
21
And honestly, it works.
22
For me, it worked.
23
And I would definitely buy it again.
24
I'm currently using the Mario Badescu one, which I really like, but yeah, this was really good and worth the hype.
25
By the way, how cute are my earrings?
26
These are part of my Daisy collection, the Fine collection, and I kind of didn't wear them as much when I had long hair, but now that I've got short hair again,
27
I love that it just hits at that perfect length, and I think they're so cute.
28
They look good with long hair too, but like for me, this just makes makes more sense.
29
I love it.
30
So I think I mentioned the rich version of this in my last empties video.
31
This is more of the normal formula.
32
So it's not as heavy.
33
It's not as rich.
34
I mean, i just feel like a princess you guys don't mind
35
when f is having a bath down there she's just licking
36
her feet now she's just having a little bird bath anyway i feel very bougie
37
when i use these and i actually had these in my guest bathroom
38
and whenever people would stay they would just talk about how much they love the shampoo
39
and conditioner i finished this face mist
40
which was amazing again it just sort of like makes me feel like a queen
41
when I use it and it's just got amazing ingredients in here.
42
Spritz generously onto the face and neck every morning.
43
I mist my face every single day before I put on any of my other skincare.
44
It helps everything sink in better and it's a nice refresher throughout the day, especially if I'm working from home.
45
Medic 8.
46
Very exciting.
47
This brand just got acquired by L'Oreal.
48
So I've been seeing all the news on that.
49
So congratulations to them.
50
I love, like love these sheet masks.
51
I think these are the best hydrating sheet masks on the market.
52
It's the ultimate recovery biocellulose mask.
53
So if you are someone that loves sheet masks and needs hydration, this is literally what you need.
54
I've used more than just one of these, but I just wanted to show one of them in this video.
55
Truly incredible and worth every penny.
56
I finished these mirror water bath salts.
57
This was actually a sample.
58
You can see like the sample at the top, but I wanted to use them up.
59
And what can I say?
60
They're great.
61
I absolutely love them.
62
I just put like a handful or two in with my bath and it just so relaxing.
63
And again, it's filled with those amazing essential oils like vetiver
64
and cedarwood and bergamot and Canadian black spruce just to give you a forest in your bathroom.
65
And it just makes me feel like I've been hanging out in nature.
66
The Rode Peptide Glazing Fluid.
67
Talk about being acquired.
68
I mean, that ELF deal has taken the internet by storm.
69
It's insane.
70
But honestly, I'm such a Rode fangirl.
71
I even have the Rode phone case with the lip gloss and I love the Rode skincare products.
72
I especially love the glazing milk, which I'm using right now.
73
I think it's amazing and I love the barrier cream and I loved this product.
74
So I'm just a huge fan of all things Rode.
75
I finished this face mask.
76
This is by Suzanne Kaufman.
77
And honestly, I've had this for such a long time.
78
I probably should not have used it, but I think it was fine.
79
But you can tell because it's their old packaging.
80
But this is their Purifying Clay Mask and it was great.
81
I think what's so great about this clay mask it's not too stripping
82
but it still kind of like cleanses the skin
83
which is exactly what I usually need is like a deep
84
cleanse without stripping away all those amazing oils on the face
85
so I really do recommend this
86
if you're looking for a new clay mask I finally finished some makeup products
87
which is strange because I never finish makeup because it takes
88
so long to get through um but first I have to share
89
that I finished two not one but two of the mirror water sun through trees candle.
90
This is a special one because it actually has my name engraved on it.
91
So I'm going to clean this one out, just put it in the freezer and get rid of that leftover wax.
92
I'm going to use this as like a brush holder or something because it's so amazing to see my name like that.
93
My friend Uliana did that for me at one of our Space NK events.
94
Of course, if you're looking for a new candle, look no further than Sun Through Trees.
95
Exactly what the name says is that feeling
96
when you're going through a forest and the sun shines through the trees and it's that sort of hopeful grounded feeling.
97
That's what I really wanted these candles to evoke
98
and I think we've done a great job and I also love the packaging with those silver details.
99
I think it's just stunning.
100
So these are available from the Mirror Water website.
101
If you live in the US you can also buy it from our website.
102
If you are in the EU you can shop via Niche Beauty.
103
All right last few products.
104
Makeup.
105
Okay, this is the NARS Soft Matte Complete Concealer.
106
I mean, throwback alert, because I used to use this
107
and talk about this pretty much in every single one of my videos.
108
And actually it's my mom's favorite concealer.
109
Like it's so cute.
110
She goes into Sephora in Canada, like just to buy this because she thinks it's the best
111
and honestly it is such a good concealer
112
if you're looking for a full coverage coverage concealer this is the one
113
and I need to repurchase this next time I'm near a NARS I'm gonna shade match myself
114
and get another one
115
because this is the shade 2.75 I'm not sure maybe I need a different shade now
116
but I'm really lacking this in my makeup collection right now
117
because like I have a little blemish up here
118
and I've tried my best to cover it but sometimes you just need something heavy duty, you know.
119
I also finished one of my favorite powders.
120
This is the Charlotte Tilbury powder.
121
You can see how well loved it is.
122
And this is a great powder because it's not too powdery, if that makes sense.
123
It just absorbs the shine.
124
And I know there's a little bit left in there, but I was going through my makeup collection and I've had this for years.
125
So I was like, okay, I need to, I need to get rid of some stuff, but I would definitely repurchase that once I finished some of my other powders.
126
I finished the Glossier Mascara.
127
I had the shade Brown and I love this mascara.
128
It's called Lash Slick.
129
I'm not a huge mascara person, honestly, anymore.
130
I find it annoying.
131
I hate taking it off at the end of the day, but I really like the Lash Slick because it is so light, but it separates the lashes and gives you some definition.
132
So this definitely is not the mascara for you if you want that like super defined mascara look, But if you're a natural makeup person,
133
then you would love this.
134
And then last, but certainly not least, I've finished so many of these.
135
The Refai Brow Sculpt.
136
I actually saw that they have reformulated this.
137
Because sometimes I did find there could be like a little bit of white that like rubs off throughout the day.
138
But they've reformulated it and apparently the formula is better than ever.
139
So I need to get my hands on one of those.
140
I currently still use the old formula.
141
I think it's fine. But yeah, if you want a brow gel that's going to keep your brows right where you want them to be all day, then this is the one for you.
142
And also, I just feel like it makes them look thicker somehow.
143
I can't explain it.
144
It's just an amazing, amazing product.
145
So that is it.
146
Those are my empties.
147
And I hope you're all having a good day.
148
And I'll see you soon.
149
Bye.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
