In this July Beauty Empties 2025 video, I’m digging into a very full (and very heavy) empties bag—and I’ve grouped everything into categories so we can keep it smooth and streamlined. I start with a little lifestyle moment because yes, I’m still completely devoted to my Numi Jasmine Green Tea as my daily morning ritual. I also tried the Green Astra blooming jasmine tea balls, which are genuinely beautiful to watch unfurl and make for a lovely loose-leaf style ritual, but for everyday ease, I’m sticking with Numi. From there I get into body care, hair care, and skincare—sharing what I’d repurchase, what I’d pass on, and why. I rave about woodsy, luxe body washes (Red Flower Palo Santo is a forever love, and Dam Dam Tokyo Shiso is the most luxurious lather I’ve ever used), plus my practical favorites like Prequel’s cleanser for body, face, and shaving. For hair, Lolavie’s Restorative Shampoo works beautifully for my thick, slightly dry hair, while the conditioner wasn’t quite right for me—and Ranavat’s Mighty Majesty remains my holy grail hair oil. Then we move through cleansers, mists, serums, retinoids, moisturizers, and SPF—ending with a quick note on BeautyCycle at Nordstrom for recycling and a disappointing packaging fail with the True Botanicals lip treatment.
