Empties #1: Fill 'er Up?

A quick rundown of some of the goodies I've worked my way through recently:


Clearly, one of my best photographs.  L to R we have:

Liz Earle Instant Boost Skin Tonic:  I got this as part of the Liz Earle skincare trio, and I have to admit I quite liked it.  The scent is very soothing, as long as you don't hate powdery smells, and it did leave my skin feeling refreshed.  I can't say that it was like, a WOW product in terms of what it did for me, but it was a nice extra step in my cleansing routine that I miss.  However, given the flat-rate shipping fee to the U.S. from the Liz Earle site, I think I'll be waiting until I start to run out of the Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser so I can order both at the same time.  Liz Earle, $21

Bobbi Brown Hydrating Face Tonic:  Now, this I feel quite a bit of love towards, on account of the scent and how refreshing it feels.  This is actually my second bottle of the stuff, and it really makes my skin feel super awake and extra clean.  I particularly love it during the warmer months, it really takes away any extra grime your may have missed with your cleanser, and the fresh scent leaves you feeling super duper renewed.  Definitely on my repurchase list.  Bobbi Brown, $29

Soap & Glory Calm One, Calm All Bubble Bath:  BEST.  SHIT.  EVER.  Seriously, I never liked taking baths and then I had my little sister bring me a bottle of this from when she was in England.  I am fully in love.  I love the girly scent, I love the amount of bubbles it creates, I love the sassy packaging, and I LOVE how smooth my skin is after I use it.  If only I felt this way about everything, my brain would be happily filled with woozy swoony endorphins all the time.  For now, it'll just have to be my twice (thrice?  Whatever the verbal derivation of four is?) weekly soaks.  Sephora, $16


So, all things I will surely use again (I'm actually almost through my second bottle of the bubble bath, eek!).  Have any of you tried any of these?  Would you give them another go?
