My story: I used to have severe acne from my teenage years to my early 30s.  
After a 18-month intense treatment with my trusty dermatologist, I very rarely have zits, very few scars and now have to focus more on hydration and as I have for the past 15+ years, on suncare ☀️.

*Here is my Empties Review for the December 2023-January 2024:*

## Empties I rebuy all the time

###   
LA ROCHE-POSAY *Effaclar Duo+ Corrective unclogging care*

I mean, this one must feature on all my #beautyempties videos. I should have a monthly subscriptions to it, as I go through one every other month

### DOVE *Go fresh deo*

Deodorants are not spoken about enough in these videos. I know this is a spray and I shouldn’t… but I love it, I really do. This is the pear and aloe vera one, but the cucumber scent also has my whole heart

### AVÈNE *Fluid ultra light SPF50+ Sunscreen*

I just rebuy, rebuy, rebuy this one for my face. I go through one every over month as well

[Beauty | Afro/Curly Hair Essentials - March 2024Starting at age 4, Jess spent a lifetime straightening her afro-curly hair chemically. Since being diagnosed with scaring Alopecia in 2020, the straightening ended forever and thus started a new journey into natural hair... That is still a work in progress!![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/58/67/5867d415-55cd-4f42-962a-67b9b6110b2c/content/images/icon/VHColletion_02_vhcollection_03-174.png)The SignatureJess![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/58/67/5867d415-55cd-4f42-962a-67b9b6110b2c/content/images/thumbnail/C67FB2CD-64D1-4828-9A71-893B0EAB485A-1-1.jpg)](https://www.thesignaturejess.com/beauty-afro-curly-hair-essentials-march-2024/)

**SESDERMA Salises Facial and Body Foamy Soap-free cream*

## Empties I will buy again

### SESDERMA *Salises Foamy soap free cream*

Recommended by my dermatologist – so good, makes your skin feel refresh without stripping it of all the oils.

### LA ROCHE-POSAY *Serozinc Mist*

So refreshing just after washing my face in the morning, before applying serum

### BENEFIT *They’re real mascara*

Travel size that came with a full size purchase, love it, will rebuy full size

### CLINIQUE *FA Beauty Long lasting rouge*

It is my favourite brand for lipsticks at the moment and I started focusing more on lipstick on conference calls, it always gives a healthier pop to my lips and does my whole face

### VICHY *Ideal Soleil SPF 50+ Sunscreen*

For body and face, absolutely love it and it was not my first purchase. Usually go for a bigger size, but travel size works too

### INSTITUT ESTHEDERM *Huile Solaire Normal to strong sun*

I love this for my body whilst at the beach of by the swimming pool but to be honest I empty it a lot BECAUSE MY HUSBAND USES MORE THAN ME!

[Beauty | It’s Charlotte Tilbury, darling!Sharing not one, not two, but three stunning experiences with Charlotte Tilbury, a brand that makes us want to showcase our beauty with a Hollywood star bang! After getting the online, Paris & Lisbon hauls inspired by Andreea Ali, I’ve tried over 10 Charlotte Tilbury products.![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/58/67/5867d415-55cd-4f42-962a-67b9b6110b2c/content/images/icon/VHColletion_02_vhcollection_03-176.png)The SignatureJess![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/58/67/5867d415-55cd-4f42-962a-67b9b6110b2c/content/images/thumbnail/charlottetilbury-1-1-2.jpg)](https://www.thesignaturejess.com/beauty-great-experiences-at-charlotte-tilbury/)

## Empties I didn’t care about:

###   
IT COSMETICS *Confidence in your beauty sleep night moisturizer*

It was just a sample but I don’t love the stickiness

### CLINIQUE *anti blemish solutions*

I used to use this product a lot in the past as I had a lot of acne but reality is it is almost 10 years old. Still plenty of product, but it is over-expired

### CAUDALIE *Soin des lèvres*

My mistake: bought it many years ago, never used it and now it is very sticky. I must be better at using what I buy to avoid putting full products in the bin

All the products are in the video below:
