[Music] In this video, I'm going to be restocking my entire routine because when I run out of one product, I run out of every product. I have been using my products until the very end.

Like, I'm not repurchasing anything until the very last drop is gone. And I mean that very literally because this is my foundation and I cut it in half to get every single drop out.

We are not wasting a single drop of product. And it feels so satisfying and accomplishing to do that.

But I always run out of everything at once, especially with my makeup routine.

I've been running out of products left and right.

I think this one is probably the most satisfying. This is my Lan lip sleeping mask and it is completely empty.

Like there is not a scrape left in here.

And honestly, I'm feeling so good about this. This took literally forever to finish. My makeup routine needs to be almost completely restocked.

Most of my hair products are completely empty.

I even have skincare and a couple shower products that need to be restocked.

So, I figured in this video I would cover all my bases. This is like my reward for finishing everything.

Now, I get to go and pick out a brand new routine, repurchase my favorites, and try some new products in replacement for the empty ones. I'm honestly so excited, but I know this is going to be so expensive.

Okay, these are my favorites.

I get these every time. They just get used so fast, but I definitely want to get a new one.

I try to conserve them as best as possible, but I end up using them in just a couple showers. They're like a scrub and a body oil in one, and they make my skin look so soft. So, I'm going to get one of these. And then these are cute, too.

I haven't seen these or these before.

These are super pretty, but it's like bubblegum scented, and I do not like bubble gum.

This is definitely my favorite product, the Super Milk Hairspray. I spray this all the time, like not just on my hair, but also on my body. It smells so good.

I just ran out of the small one, but I have this big one still, so I'm not going to restock it yet. But that one is definitely my favorite product.

It smells so good. It's like vanilla but with like lemon.

[Music] This conditioner I have in the mini one, which I'm still trying. I like trying the mini sizes first because the big ones are really expensive.

I always think these are so pretty and pink.

I just can't with the scent.

It's literally bubblegum scented.

Like look at this one. It's so pretty, but it kind of defeats the purpose if I don't like the scent.

[Music] It smells so good, but like why does it look like that? Like why did they decide on yellow?

[Music] I just stopped into Lush. I'm not going to completely restock my shower in this video.

I'm going to do that in a separate video.

But I had a couple things I wanted to pick up because I am completely out.

Even in my shower, I already have so many empties.

Not only have I been upgrading my routine, but I also just recently upgraded my phone.

I just got the new iPhone 17 Pro Max.

This was my old one and this one looks pretty crazy.

I've been looking for cute but protective phone cases for my new phone and I found so many cute ones on Caseify.

I love the designs of these cases and also how high quality they are.

I love matching my phone case to my outfit.

So, a lot of these phone cases go perfectly with my fall aesthetic.

This is the case I had on my phone today and I think it looks so cute with my outfit.

This is one of their glaze cases and these are my favorite because they have this glossy finish that looks so cute.

I love how shiny these are.

They also have a scratch resistant feature, which is so nice. So, you don't have to worry about any scratch marks or print peeling.

I also have been loving this bounce case.

This design is so cute.

This has expanded bounce corners for easier accessory attachment.

So, like this frosted bows phone charm is so pretty.

I love how this all looks together.

It's so girly and cute.

I also love this pink snap and stick grip stand.

And you can easily mix and match the charms and accessories with the different phone cases.

The ringstand phone case is also super practical.

This part on top pops out so you can use it for hands-free viewing. I am always watching a show so this makes it so easy to prop up my phone when I'm doing my makeup, washing the dishes.

And then lastly for the compact cases, this design might be my favorite. I love this one so much. The pink and the heart is so cute.

It also matches my nails so perfectly.

But there are so many cute designs to choose from. So, if you want to shop Caseify, you can use my link in the description to get a 15% off discount.

There's no promo code required.

I'm honestly so excited for a new phone upgrade and for all of my cute cases to match my outfits.

So, definitely shop Caseify using the link in my description and thank you so much to them for sponsoring today's video.

Okay, so I want to start in this section.

I bought this Charlotte Tilbury powder in the mini size a while ago and I really liked it, but then I lost it.

So, instead of getting another mini size, I think I'm going to get the large full size.

I might as well. You know, I am like completely out of all of my setting powders.

And this one, I've also heard is really good and long lasting.

So, I'm excited to get the large size now.

So, I'm trying to decide between fair and medium. They only have four shades, which kind of sucks.

I think last time though, I got fair.

So, that's what I'm going to do again.

[Music] I also just love all of their packaging, but I'm so excited to finally have a new powder.

I haven't had one in like a month.

I also need to get a new setting spray.

The one I was using is completely out.

And I've heard this one is like the best.

I don't really want to get the large size first because this is $38.

I rather try it cuz I feel like some setting sprays don't really do anything, but this one I've heard is so good.

So, I think I'm just going to get this size and I might as well try this one.

[Music] I really liked my Rare Beauty liquid blush.

I think I got the shade Bliss.

Was it Bliss maybe? Or maybe Hope?

I don't know. It was one of those and I really liked it. So, I would try a new shade, but I kind of want to try a new brand, but honestly, this was like so 10 out of 10. And then also these liquid highlighters I love. I think I got the shade Enlighten and I'm still using it.

It's so good. So, I could try the soft pinch powder blush cuz I've heard these are really good, too. And they're really pretty.

Like this one. I think I would get this shade.

I think I want to try this.

This is actually so cute.

I don't know. I'm going to think about it, but I'm going to add it to my basket because I've been loving the liquid cheek products, but these just look so pretty and I need a new blush.

[Music] This is my favorite concealer ever.

I honestly don't know if I'll ever try a new one because this is like so perfect.

I think I'm 2.6 C. I'm going to double check that this is my perfect shade, but I've had like four bottles of this.

It's so good because I like to use concealer as like a spot treatment. Like I want it to completely match my skin tone and this one has been so perfect.

Okay, I definitely don't need another one of these Glossier lip balms, but this new one looks so pretty.

I've tried the original and the wild fig and the mint and the mango, but the black cherry looks so good, too.

This is my favorite brand for brow products.

This is like the only brand I've ever used on my brows. I used to use this Dip Brow Pomade like forever ago and then I switch to these brow powder duos and this is literally all I use.

Like I get this medium brown shade and it's my favorite ever.

I honestly don't think I'll ever try anything different.

Like this has worked for me for years and it lasts for so long.

Like it's kind of crazy how long it lasts.

I use it every single day. That's the one thing in my makeup routine I always do like every single day and it lasts me for years.

Like it is actually kind of scary how long it lasts. So that's my favorite product ever. I don't need to restock that yet. What I do need to restock is my brow brush. I bought one of these like when was that?

Like 6 years ago and it's been my only brow brush that I use. I don't even know if they have it anymore. I think it was this one.

But anyway, mine is broken.

So I need to get a new one. Okay.

They don't have this one in stock, but they do have this one which I'm kind of leaning towards.

It is a little bit smaller of a brush, but it's really similar to what I have. So, maybe I'll try this one. It's been my dream to get one of these Hourglass palettes.

These are so pretty. I honestly love this swan one, and it has so many shades.

They're so so cute. Maybe for Christmas.

And also, these matching brushes are so pretty.

And this is the concealer brush that I use everyday. I love it.

It's so high quality.

[Music] Okay, next I need to grab a new shampoo and conditioner.

I'm very excited for this because I used the AMA mini sizes of the shampoo and conditioner and I love them.

Like that's probably my favorite hair set I've ever had.

So, I'm finally going to buy the big size.

They have so many different ones. This is the one that I had tried. So, I think this is what I'm going to get. This is the strength repair shampoo and conditioner.

I am so excited to have the full size bottles.

These were so good. I also am kind of looking at the high shine one, but maybe I'll try those after.

And then I also have the matching hair mask, which I really like. I'm almost out of this one, too. So, I could restock it now, but I think I'm going to wait.

This one is so good. I also kind of want to try another one, though. Like, I love trying new products, but I like the idea of having like a full matching set.

I can't wait to wash my hair now.

There's also this Keristas set though.

I have the hair mask. I'm like pretty much out of it.

And then I also am pretty much out of this leave-in spray, but I just purchased this strengthening serum.

So now I'm like, should I get the matching shampoo and conditioner?

Also, these smell really good. And I love the pink.

And then this hair oil. I really want to restock.

I really think this is what has saved my hair. And also this one I completely used up. And what I like about this one is they have a refill size, so you don't have to buy the full size every time. I think both of these were so 10 out of 10, though.

I was really hoping they would have more stock today of the road products. I have so many of these that I want to try.

This is the one I really want to try.

I'm so happy they brought it back like as part of their collection because it was limited edition for the longest time.

And the strawberry glaze.

These are definitely my top two right here.

And then also these cream blushes.

Sprinkle for sure I want to try. This was also a limited edition one for the longest time.

I've never tried any of these.

So once they have that shade, I'm definitely going to do that.

They do have a lot of stock on these, but of course not the one I want to try and I feel like I just have to hold out for it.

Like I've waited this long.

I definitely want to try the exact one that I have been wanting. But they do have this one, the road vanilla.

And this has also been on my list.

This is the peptide one. So it doesn't have any tint.

It's just to hydrate and it's a lip treatment.

And this Lan lip sleeping mask is probably the cutest thing ever.

It's a three layered lip mask and it has all of my favorite ones in it.

Okay, and here is my favorite foundation.

This will be my third bottle of this one, too. I think this is the IT Cosmetics CC cream. And honestly, it's just so good. I feel like it matches my skin so perfectly. And I am completely out.

So, I'm going to get my shade fair light if they have it.

[Music] I love these Gizoo honey lip oils.

I think these are so underrated.

Honestly, they are so perfect. And this shade, vanilla glaze, they just came out with it.

I think it's so pretty and it smells so good.

[Music] [Music] [Music] I am always out of these. So, I'm going to get a new box. I love these because I have a bad habit at touching my face.

So, this way I can't pick at anything.

And I feel like these actually really help for my breakouts to go away.

So, I'm going to get a new box of these.

It comes with 24, but they're $9.

So, hopefully these last.

[Music] I also love their mini section.

As you've seen in this video, I almost always buy the mini version of a product before the full version. Like these Tree Hut scrubs are so cute.

Also, why would you even need a mini version of Chapstick, though? This is so funny.

This is like the tiniest one ever.

Okay, so this is the hair section.

I've been really wanting to try the L'Oreal gloss treatment, but I can never find it.

I've never seen it in person.

They're like these pink bottles.

I've heard so many good things about it.

The bottles are really pretty, too.

I've never seen them in person, so I was hoping they would have them today cuz I've been really wanting to try them.

Also, they're drugstore that would be so perfect for a cheaper alternative.

I've tried higherend gloss treatments and I really like how they make my hair super shiny, but I want a cheaper alternative.

These are the only ones I've seen.

I've heard some of these are really good, too, but they're just not the one I want.

I absolutely love the It's a 10 miracle leave-in product. This makes my hair so soft when brushing it after I get out of the shower, but it is so expensive.

I don't remember it being this much.

Even for the small bottle, this is $22. Like, that is crazy.

So, I'm going to try and find one that's cheaper, but this does work really well.

It's crazy. Like, it makes my hair so soft and easy to brush through.

And this brand, Salt Air, I had no idea they had hair products.

I just bought a body wash from them a couple months ago and it's been my absolute favorite scent.

I don't think they have the scent here, but it smells so good. I wish they had the matching shampoo cuz I actually would be really curious to try it, especially if it made my hair smell as good as the body wash does because it's turned into probably my favorite body wash ever.

This was that scent I'm talking about, the salt air one. This is saltwater vanilla and it smells so perfect.

I've also been wanting to do my nails at home more recently.

These are pressons and I think they're so cute. I love getting my nails done and getting cute designs.

It just gets so expensive. So, these look so nice.

These are gel nail polishes.

And I actually already have the black and the white one, but this pink is so pretty.

I also really like this red one, and I think that would like encourage me to grow out my natural nails and save money by doing them at home.

Kind of want to get this color. This is so cute.

[Music] This is my absolute favorite highlighter ever.

I don't know which color I have, but this is the one I've repurchased a bunch of times. And I love it cuz it looks so cute. It lasts so long.

Like it lasts so long. I've had it all year for sure.

And I still have so much left.

I just love it. It's so perfect.

I never really use it on my cheeks, but I always use it on my eyes. And I think it looks so pretty.

So, I'm not going to restock this one yet, but when I need to, I'm definitely going to just repurchase the one that I already have.

[Music] [Music] And this is the exact mascara I've had saved for months. I've been waiting to try this until I ran out of my last mascara.

I am so excited. I've heard it talked about so much. I'm pretty sure it was the light pink one that everyone really liked, but this one is brown.

And I always do black, so I think I'm going to get the dark pink one.

I can't remember which one everyone was talking about.

But I've heard all of these are super popular, so I'm so excited to finally try it. And it's only $4.99 versus the high-end ones that I've tried, which are a lot more.

So I'm hoping this is as good as everyone talks about.

[Applause] [Music] They're too sweet for me. As I said, I'm going to restock my shower in another video, so I'm going to skip my favorite section today.

But I'm really excited to get my new scents. Okay, I do need to get a new deodorant. I always get the Dove dry spray. I love it cuz it doesn't get on my clothes like the solid ones do.

And I usually get the rose petals, but the last two times I've got this one, the beauty finish, I got it on accident the first time. I thought this one was the rose petal. They both have the pink cap. I do really like it.

It's really sweet smelling. I honestly would be open to trying a new one like this apple.

I've also heard everyone telling me to try the cucumber, but I think I'm going to go back to my original favorite, which is the rose petals one.

I also do love these Athena scents.

The super pink one is my favorite.

It smells so good. like this spray one.

The Petal Bloom sounds really good, too, or the vanilla.

But I'm going to have to go with the Dove and keep it safe.

I've been wanting to do whitening strips for a while, so I think today is the day I finally get them. They are pretty expensive, so I really hope they work.

It is time to give you guys a haul of everything I got. I am so excited for this.

I feel so good about this haul.

Every single purchase I made in this video was very intentional.

I only bought products that I was restocking and I had either tried before and I was getting a brand new bottle or I was buying a product in place of one that was completely empty. So, I'm excited to not only have brand new bottles of all of my favorites, but also to try a couple new things. So, I'm going to start with makeup. I'm so excited.

I ended up buying an entire new base of makeup.

I knew this was going to be expensive, but I needed every single one of these products. My foundation, first off, I was completely out of.

This bottle was literally cut in half.

This is the IT Cosmetics CC cream.

And honestly, this is like my third or fourth bottle.

I cannot get enough of this.

Next, I repurchased another one of my favorites.

This is the Kosis Super Creamy Concealer.

I like using my concealer as a spot treatment and a little bit under my eyes.

Basically, whatever the foundation doesn't cover is what I put concealer over. I just like to have the perfect base of foundation and concealer, and this one does it for me every time. I have had over four bottles of this. I've been using it for so long now and I cannot get enough.

This concealer is literally perfect.

My next purchase was something new.

This is the Charlotte Tilbury Smoothing Micro Powder.

I am so excited for this one.

I have not had the full size before.

I did have a mini size, but I have no idea where it went. I really liked it and now it is missing. It's just gone.

So, I decided to buy the full size.

I haven't had a setting powder in months.

Like my makeup right now, I have no setting powder on.

I kind of like how it looks.

I'm not going to lie. And this is another product I haven't tried before.

I decided to get the Charlotte Tilbury setting spray.

My setting spray is completely empty, so I figured why not?

And it's the mini size because these are expensive.

So now I have an entire new base of makeup. I'm honestly so excited for all of these products, and I cannot wait to do my makeup tomorrow.

I also decided to get a new blush.

I've been using the Rare Beauty liquid blush, but mine is completely empty.

I actually loved that blush so much. I took the stopper out and literally scraped the sides of this. I would say this blush was like a 10 out of 10. I loved this so much.

It was kind of surprising that I didn't repurchase that. But I did decide to get a new Rare Beauty blush.

This is the soft pinch luminous powder blush.

This is the prettiest blush I've seen.

Even when I was checking out, they were like, "I've had this blush like three times.

It's so good." So that really convinced me.

I was like, "Okay, that is so good to hear. I'm so excited to use it.

I will report back to you guys on if I like it as much as the liquid one.

And now I really have a full base of makeup.

I also needed to get a new brow brush.

Mine is literally broken and I've had it for over 6 years. So I was like, you know what?

It's time to get a new one.

This one is from the brand Anastasia.

And I will never purchase brow products from another brand. This is the brow powder I was talking about.

Look how much is left. Barely made a dent into this brow powder. And I've had it for so long already.

This is where I went a little bit overboard. I ended up buying three new lip products. First off, I knew I wanted to get a new Lan lip sleeping mask.

This was my reward for completely finishing my other one and I kind of fell in love with this one.

This is their new limited edition strawberry shortcake lip sleeping mask and it's this triple layered lip mask. I am so excited to use this. It smells so good.

It has all three of my favorite flavors.

And I also really like the idea of a triple layered lip mask because if I get tired of one layer, it's okay. I have a new one coming up. And then I also decided to get the road peptide lip treatment.

This one is in vanilla.

This is my first road lip treatment.

And then I got a third lip product. Did I need this?

No. I love these lip oils so much.

Also, the flavors of these lip products are so good. This one is their new vanilla glaze.

And I think this is going to be so perfect for winter.

This one just looks so good. Like I want to eat this lip gloss. Yeah, this one will be on my bedside table. This one will be in my purse.

And this one will be in my car.

I need to have all of the options.

Lastly, for makeup, I have a new mascara to try.

I am so excited for this one.

This is the Essence Lash Princess.

And I have had this screenshotted from Tik Tok for months.

Like, I have just been waiting for my mascara to run out so that I could go out and buy this.

Apparently, this is the best mascara ever.

It makes your lashes look like falsies.

And it was only $4.99.

So, can it get any better? I'm praying it works as good as everyone talks about.

I basically have an entire new makeup routine.

I cannot wait to do my makeup tomorrow.

Next, let's move on to skincare.

First, I got these Mighty Patches.

I love these so much. I end up restocking these all the time. I buy all of my skincare products from the place that I get facials from.

I started getting facials this year once a month.

And I think it's really helped my skin.

So, I end up buying all of my skin care from there.

And I was out of everything.

Surprise, surprise. I was out of my face wash, my toner, and my moisturizer.

Everything was completely empty.

So, I had to buy all three products over again.

I also decided to get teeth whitening strips.

This has been on my list to get for a while. These are the Crest 3D White Strips. This is the professional results.

So, I was at the dentist recently and my teeth are amazing.

Knock on wood. They look great, right?

Like, I'm doing everything right, but my dentist is like, "Some people just have more saturated teeth." And I'm one of them. Some days I can tell more than other days. My teeth have a little bit of color in them, and I don't really want that.

So, so I decided I'm going to do some teeth whitening at home.

Yeah, guys, get in the good stuff in this video.

As I said throughout this video, I'm going to restock my shower in a separate video and do like a dedicated video on all of that when all of my products are empty. But for now, there were a couple things that I wanted to repurchase.

First, from Lush, I had to get a new scrubby. I love these so much.

These are the absolute best exfoliators.

The thing with these is they run out so quickly.

I could use this entire product in like two showers if I really wanted to.

I like to scrub this everywhere.

It's basically an exfoliator and like a body oil in one. My skin is literally glistening after using this product.

And then while I was at Lush, I also found this vanilla body cube. I've never seen this before, but it smells absolutely insane.

It smells like sugar.

It's this like squishy cube. I think it's like a body bar, body soap. You use it in the shower.

And then I also needed to get a brand new shampoo and conditioner.

These are the AMA the Cure Strength Repair Shampoo and Conditioner. My hair I feel like has been doing so good lately and I think it's thanks to this product.

I've been loving Ama hair products recently.

I also bought a restock of my favorite deodorant.

This is the Dove dry spray.

I got the rose petals one. The very last thing that I bought is this nail polish.

I've been wanting to do my nails more at home because it's so expensive and it's a lot of time to keep up with nails at the salon.

But I really want to grow out my natural nails and getting a cute gel polish like this kind of gives me the motivation.

I love this color.

It's the sparkly pink. So so cute. And I already have the lamp to cure it, so I'm set.

What a video. This was so fun to film.

Thank you guys so much for watching until the end. I'm so excited for a fresh routine.

I can't wait to try all of the new products that I bought.

Honestly, tomorrow's going to be a good day.

I finally get to open all of this stuff up.

So, thank you guys so much for watching until the very end. I love you all so so much. Honestly, I think it's more satisfying to completely finish a product than to see brand new products unopened.

Like it's such a simple thing to just use a product until the very end, use it every day and commit to it and then have the empty bottle, but it's such like an underrated feeling.

Like it just feels so good.

It feels accomplishing. Now I get to reward myself with a new routine. I love you all so much. Thank you for watching until the very end. I will see you guys soon and I hope you have an amazing rest of your day. Bye guys. Mwah.
