August empties - DITCH or DOUBLE UP

I've been on holiday this month so had a lot of empties to post about but seeing as its almost the end of the holiday season I thought it would be pointless to review a load of sun lotions etc. so I've just picked a few items which I took on holiday and have used up that could be useful all year round to post about!
Overall I liked all products and would try them again, all except the nail polish dry spray which I dont think seemed to make any difference.




Dove summer glow + soft shimmer
Positives - smells nice, has a slight shimmer so great to apply before a night out, has falst tan in so gives you a nice glow while moisturising.
Negatives - takes a while to soak into skin and dry properly, tan can become a bit patchy after a few applications.
DITCH/DOUBLE UP

Superdrug nail polish remover
Positives - cheap!, removes nail polish quickly in just a few wipes, comes in different sizes perfect for your handbag or makeup bag.
Negatives - none.
DITCH/DOUBLE UP

Palmers cocoa butter moisturising lip balm
Positives - smells delicious, smooth and soft on lips, has spf15 sunscreen and vitamin e, makes lips feel soft.
Negatives - none.
DITCH/DOUBLE UP

L'oreal  dermo-expertise eye makeup remover
Positives - gentle on sensitive skin, non-irritant formula, perfume free, removes makeup quickly.
Negatives - can take a while to remove waterproof mascara.
DITCH/DOUBLE UP

MAC studio fix fluid foundation
Positives - soft on skin, buildable coverage, looks natural when applied lightly, various shades to suit all skin.
Negatives - wears off quickly throughout the day if no setting powder applied, best for normal skin as can becoe quite oily.

Bourjous volume clubbing mascara
Positives - good wand to application, comes in different shades and also waterproof, volumising and lengthening.
Negatives - drys out quickly.
