Emp-TEA: 3+ Years of Skincare Empties

For years I have lied to my friends and family about how I’m *just* about to start a YouTube channel and finally share all the insights I’ve gleaned from a decade of being beauty-obsessed. I even went as far as to start collecting all my empty bottles and jars of skincare for my eventual “empties” videos (a la your beauty favorite YouTuber) where I’d go through what I used each month and how I liked it. I put my empties in a gallon Ziploc bag, which then turned into a grocery bag, which then became two grocery bags, and then a box as time dragged on and I dragged my feet.

Finally, I realized I’d been hoarding skincare empties for YEARS like I was angling for a TLC special. By the time I finally got the inspiration to go through my empties (thanks Tiktok!), I could barely remember how half of them performed. The rest, however, are in the video below.
