Hi girls.

Long time no hear. I just don't find time for my blog. Sometimes I post even on Instagram, which I have done for previous empties. But this time again I decided to post it here. I hope you will find these reviews heplful ...

I love Batiste dry shampoos. They're the most effective dry shampoos I've ever tried. The Original is the best for quite oily hair. Also Blonde one is good, but not as effective, so I use it on semi-oily hair. Plus because that one has a tint, it can leave yellow marks on your clothing, which I don't like.

I just bought this foam because I ran out of every face wash. But I really liked it. It is very creamy and the foam is nicely thick. It is gentle but nicely cleansing. And the scent is nice but very gentle.

I really liked this micellar water. It was so gentle, but it removed all the makeup. I really do recommend it.

This is a really nice calming gel to use after depilation. It absorbs quickly and doesn't irritate the skin. The smell isn't the best, but I don't mind it. Even though I've used it for years, now I've tried just Aloe Vera gel from DM and I really like it.

This is an interesting product by Lush. It's shower gel infused with olive oil, so it feels nourishing on the skin, but not really oily. Plus the scent is very different. Kind of fresh, but calming at the same time.

I always use this intimate wash and have no complain about it. Though I might wanna try something new.

L'Oreal Colorista Washout - #hotpinkhair & #bluehair
I loved these hair colors. They usually lasted on me for about two months and I love that they're easy to use. Sadly these are hard to get anywhere now. I mixed these two shades to get a purple shade.
Repurchase: yes

Body conditioners by Lush are basically body lotions which you use on wet skin, in the shower. It is applied and then washed off. So it doesn't leave a greasy feeling behind, but it's very easy to use and great for people who are lazy like me and forget to apply body lotion. This one smelled very lovely of oranges, so it was very uplifting. This scent was a holiday edition, so it's not available at the moment. 

TBS body butters are the best. They're very hydrating and a bit on the greasy side, so it's best to use them before bed. Even though the texture is very thick, it is easy to blend into the skin. Though I love that they really hydrate my very dry skin. Satsuma scent is of course very orangey and fruity.

On the opposite side, I also love body yogurts by TBS. They're great for applying right after shower, when you want to dress up quickly, because it absorbs right away. Also I love them in the summer time because when it's hot outside, you don't want anything sticky or greasy on the skin. The mango scent was just so yummy.

I've loved the Christina Aguilera perfumes for years and I think she makes really lovely scents. This one was so feminine but fruity at the same time. Longevity is not great, but they're cheap as well. 

I think this one was one of my favorite deodorants so far. I love Rexona for hot and busy days since it protects me very well, however this one is a bit more special. Well, it just has that fresh, citrus smell to it which I love ! Sadly it is not made for black clothes.

I prefer spray deodorants, so this one was not my favorite. Though the liquid ones seem less drying on the skin. I just don't like the liquid texture, because it takes so much time to dry on the armpits. Plus sometimes it would still feel sticky afterwards. So I would use it whenever I'm not in a rush or just for home. The only thing that was good, was that it was transparent. It's not a bad product, it's just not for me.

A light hand cream with a gentle scent. I can't say that it was greatly hydrating, but it did the job. It didn't leave any greasy residue.

I really loved this cream. I mostly used it for my hands. It was nicely hydrating, though it is maybe not for super dry hands. But I mostly loved it when my hands were itchy and I would have open wounds, because it would not sting or irritate my hands. The texture is thicker, but it sinks in right away, so it doesn't feel greasy. 

Another hand cream that I loved. Again, it is not the most hydrating product, however I love the light weight texture, that is not too light. It is great to carry in handbag, because you can apply it whenever and you can use your phone or anything right away. Plus I really love the grape scent. 

Hi girls.

It's time for another makeup empties. I just love finishing makeup products, even though I'm sad when some of my favorites are gone and I have to buy new ones. I'm very much wanting to minimise my collection, so I do give away a lot of makeup. I mainly used up everyday staples such as concealer, mascara and fixing spray. Some disappointed me and some wowed me. You can also find previous makeup empties posts here...

Repurchase: yes

Oriflame Giordani Gold Incredible Length Mascara

This mascara was really nice. Even though it was lengthening, I also felt like it gave me really a lot of volume. The brush is standard with lots of bristles.

Repurchase: maybe

Rimmel Scandaleyes Reloaded Mascara

This one was also a quite nice volumizing mascara. However the brush was really big and it started to clump my lashes. It just didn't wow me and I prefer other drugstore mascaras.

Repurchase: no

L´Oréal Paris False Lash Wings Mascara

I love L'Oreal mascaras because they usually give me an amazing volume, however this one was not my favorite. I simply hate it because of the strange brush which is supposed to look like a butterfly wing. I can't seem to get it to work and then it just clumps my lashes. But the Intenza version of this mascara is absolutely gorgeous and gives me an amazing look.
Repurchase: no

Estée Lauder Sumptuous Extreme Mascara

This mascara was in my disappointing products post here. I don't know why I kept it in my drawer. It was an ok mascara, but for the price it just wasn't worth it. I haven't seen a brush like that before.

Repurchase: no

Estée Lauder Little Black Primer

I actually really liked this primer. It was black which is rare as primers are usually white. Though because of that it looked very natural on the lashes and if I wore it on it's own, it would give me just a natural look for a no makeup day but still it was volumizing and a bit lengthening. But at the same time it's just such an unnecessary product for me.

Repurchase: probably not

Real Techniques Miracle Mini Eraser Sponge

I love these sponges for blending my concealer. Sadly they have their use time, so this one is not useful anymore because it became stiff and hard to blend with. So I have to buy another set. I love these because they're small and you can really get into the corners of the eyes or around the nose.

Repurchase: yes

Batiste Original dry shampoo

Batiste is my favorite dry shampoo of all times. Though I'm a bit picky with the scents and you cannot get a tropical scent in our country anymore. So I usually buy the Original version these days. This dry shampoo is just hard core and it works amazing even if your hair is really greasy. It can be a bit white sometimes, but I just use hair dryer to get it off.

Repurchase: always

Batiste Fresh dry shampoo
Last year I discovered this new scent and absolutely loved it because it it's refreshing and lighter. Though I think also the powder is lighter so when my hair is quite oily it doesn't help that much.
Repurchase: yes

Vitanove Dry Shampoo
This dry shampoo you can buy at E.Leclerc. I just bought it because I was interested. Though it was very powdery and white which is not great if you're in a hurry or your hair is darker. But if I have really greasy hair and just need to go somewhere quickly, I would use it and use my hair dryer on higher speed to get it off. It was cheap too, so I didn't care how it worked. But for everyday I wouldn't use it.
Repurchase: no


Nivea LE Fabulous Hibiscus Shower Gel
Unfortunately this shower gel scent was limited edition. It was really nice and fruity. However sometimes I think it would smell a bit too alcohol-like even though it doesn't contain alcohol. But I still loved using it because it was so refreshing and awakening.
Repurchase: would if I could

Lush Twilight Shower Gel
One of my favorite Lush scents. Though I get bored of Lush scents quite quickly, so it takes me such a long time to use up a bottle. This is a very specific lavender scent, but it also smells a bit like oatmeal cookies. The shower gel felt gentle on the skin. I just loved it for the calming but sweet scent. Though next time I would prefer a mini version.
Repurchase: yes

Afrodita Cosmetics Extra Sensitive Intimate Wash
A very nice and gentle feminine wash. I have one that is my top favorite, but this one is the second afterwards. And when I use something else, I miss this one. The scent is very light which is great and it seems very gentle on my lady bits.
Repurchase: yes

Rexona Active Protection+ Invisible Anti-Perspirant - Fresh

I like Rexona deodorants, but after trying the Active Protection+ one, it is now my winner. I always choose the ones for black and white clothing. This one lasts even longer and acts even more when you get active. I mostly also love this one for the scent because it's kind of a powdery one and out of all other Rexona deodorants, this one doesn't make me choke on it.

Repurchase: already have

Rexona Invisible Aqua Anti-Perspirant

This one is always nice. It does the job and keep you "stinky-free" for a long time. Also it doesn't leave yellow marks. It's still a bit white though and sometimes I choke on how powerful the scent and mist is.

Repurchase: always



Swiss O'Par Silver Shampoo
Immediately after I bleached (lightened) my hair, I purchased this shampoo. It's meant for blond or grey hair, to even out the tone and eliminated brassy look. It is quite watery, I would say, so it flows quickly down the hair. It helps a bit with toning the hair, however it's not that visible. I use it in between washes when I don't want to use Icecream No-Yellow shampoo (that one is the best for yellow tones).
Repurchase: maybe

L'Oreal Elseve Extraordinary Clay Purifying Shampoo
One of the best drugstore shampoo for oily hair. It is very cleansing (contains clay) but doesn't dry out or strip the hair. I also really like the fresh scent. Though nowadays I use only solid shampoos but if I was in a quick need of shampoo, I would still buy it.
Repurchase: yes


The Body Shop Seaweed Deep Cleansing Gel Wash
A very nice gentle face wash. Doesn't have much of a scent, but is still pleasant. It's not amazing, however it was really gentle and relaxing to use Read full review here.
Repurchase: maybe

Soap & Glory Flake Away Body Scrub
I love the scent of Soap & Glory products. Their original scent is just something special. This scrub felt moisturising and not drying. It wasn't too harsh, but still did it's job.
Repurchase: maybe

Caudalie Vinopure Skin Perfecting Mattifying Fluid
One of the lightest mattifying creams I've tried. I liked the light texture, however I felt that it sometimes took longer to absorb into the skin. I loved it at times when my skin wasn't as oily, but it still needed mattifying effect. Still I think I prefer the Vinosource Moisturizing Mattifying Fluid.
Repurchase: probably not 


Kamill Hand & Nail Cream Q10
A really nice moisturizing hand cream. It can be a bit thick, but it's not overly greasy. Plus the scent is nicely calming.
Repurchase: yes

Nuxe Rêve de miel Hand and Nail Cream
This line from Nuxe is quite popular and this is not my first time trying the hand cream. I'm not a fan of this scent because it's quite potent. The hand cream is moisturizing but doesn't do wonders. It takes some time to absorb in, so I used it before bed time.
Repurchase: no 

The Body Shop Glazed Apple Sugar Scrub
Another limited edition product. I loved this Christmas scent (from 2 or 3 years ago?) but I finally used it up. Actually I used it for my hands, because the purple shampoo really leaves a stain on hands. The scent is just amazing, it's like some apple candy and not too artificial.
Repurchase: I wish I could


Lush Charity Pot Hand & Body Lotion
This is a sample I got in London. It's main ingredient is fair trade cocoa and shea butter and the profit goes to charity. Plus it contains other hydrating oils. The texture is not too thick, however it takes some time to absorb. Though it is very moisturising. All Lush body lotions are very hydrating which I love. Though I'd use them only before slipping on pyjamas and going to bed. But this small pot I only used on some dry patches and it helped.
Repurchase: maybe

Lush Santa Baby Lip Scrub
My favorite festive Lush lip scrub. It smells and tasted like coca cola. It's not too sweet, but still pleasant. Texture is not too gritty as the sugar glides on smoothly without too much crumbling. Plus the aftertaste is nice. The whole pot lasts me a year. I used to use these lip scrubs all the time, but now I sometimes only use a hot wet cotton pad which works wonders too.
Repurchase: yes

Blistex Conditioning Lip Balm
Just a standard lip balm. I switch between this one and Labello Classic lip balm and I like both. They're hydrating enough, but I still need to reapply it multiple times because it rubs off. Let me know if you have any favorite lip balm recommendation though.
Repurchase: yes

Carmex Classic Lip Balm
I heard so much about this lip balm but it actually disappointed me. It contains menthol and is quite strong. If I reapplied it even three times through my work time, my lips would start to feel very warm and tingly and the feeling wouldn't go away right away. So then I used it only when applying my makeup. It is very hydrating which I love, but I just can't have it for every day use.
Repurchase: sadly no 


The Body Shop Pink Grapefruit + Moringa Bath Bubble
I love bubble baths. These small heart bubble bars were fun. Maybe not as much as Lush ones, but still cute and nice smelling. Though here is the additional packaging which you don't get with Lush bubble bars.
Repurchase: maybe

The Body Shop Vitamin E + Aloe Sheet Mask
These are made of natural fibers and are biodegradable which is awesome. I think both were quite hydrating and made my skin feel very soft. At first they're very cold because of the sheet. But it totally works and is great for here and there if your skin is feeling dry.
Repurchase: maybe


Kiko Softening Hands Mask
I had this mask for such a long time and finally I tried it. I don't know what happened in Amsterdam; if it was the wind or their water but my hands got so dry and flakey and I would apply hand cream and balm on it multiple times per day. So then at home I tried this hands mask. It's actually like hand gloves filled with hand cream. You wear them for 10-15 minutes and meanwhile massage the cream into the hands. It feels a bit strange and cold. But when you take them off, the cream absorbs in and you're left with very smooth soft hands. There was still so much product left in the gloves, so I used it the next day again. I cannot say that it worked like a miracle, however after two uses I did see a difference and my hands aren't as flakey now.

Hi girls.
It's been a while since I wrote a makeup empties post. Well, makeup is kind of hard to use up. But then one day you finish multiple makeup products at the same time. If you're interested, here you can read other makeup empties. Now onto today's new post...



Shiseido Ibuki Quick Fix Mist 

Hi girls.

I'm back with empties post. I hope you're not getting tired of these posts. However, I love these because I can fully tell you how I feel about the product because I've used it all up. Also soon I'll be doing makeup empties because I finally am using up some makeup yay. Keep on reading for other beauty empties...

Got2b Volumania Big Volume Volumizing Hair Spray

This was one of my favorite hairsprays. I think it's not sold anymore or maybe they repackaged it. I liked how light weight it was but it still really hold my hair in place without feeling sticky. Also the scent was quite nice. However the nozzle would clog a lot, so I had to use a needle to make it work again.

Repurchase: maybe

Batiste Dry Shampoo - Wildflower

As you know, I love Batiste dry shampoos. I can say I've been loyal to this brand for years. Here and there I try a new scent but most of the time I am disappointed. This time I needed a dry shampoo while I was at the seaside and the choice of scents was poor. I chose this one even though I hate flower scents and it was not so nice. Though I've had worse scents. The product worked well as always.

Repurchase: yes, but not this scent

Garnier Mineral Protection 48h Anti-Perspirant - Cotton Fresh

These deodorants are quite nice. I use them in between the use of Rexona, so my body doesn't get so used to only one deodorant. They're good and keep you stinky free for a long time. Though I just somehow prefer Rexona, especially for very hot summer days. I mostly get these when they're on 1+1 in DM. It is still a good deodorant and it doesn't show any color on my clothes.
Repurchase: maybe

Rexona Active Protection+ Invisible Anti-Perspirant

I like Rexona deodorants, but after trying this one, it is now my winner. I always choose the ones for black and white clothing. This one lasts even longer and acts even more when you get active. I mostly also love this one for the scent because it's kind of a powdery one and out of all other Rexona deodorants, this one doesn't make me choke on it.

Rexona Invisible Aqua Anti-Perspirant

This one is always nice. It does the job and keep you "stinky-free" for a long time. Also it doesn't leave yellow marks. It's still a bit white though and sometimes I choke on how powerful the scent and mist is.

Repurchase: always

Soap & Glory Clean On Me Shower Gel

My favorite shower gel of all times. First of all, the scent is amazing, it si just something special and after you shower with it, your skin smells nice for hours. Plus the texture is nicely creamy so you don't have to use a lot. Also it makes the skin feel soft. Sadly I cannot find it anywhere in Europe (only UK), but I will order it from Amazon one day. Yes, it's not cheap but to me it is worth the money. You would just have to try it, to know what I'm talking about.

Repurchase: yes

Caudalie Thé des Vignes Shower Gel

Another nice shower gel. This one was a bit thinner, however still a great scent. It smelled like grapes but a bit fresher and unique. I really liked it. Though the packaging was annoying because it was hard to open each time (maybe I just got a faulty one).

Repurchase: maybe

Afrodita Cosmetics Floral Dream Shower Gel

This one I got in a gift set. I actually used it as a soap. I don't love flower scents, however this one was quite fresh and nice. I find it a bit strange to be in a packaging like this though.

Repurchase: not sure

Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue - Dreaming In Portofino

I've had this scent for years and it was my favorite summer scent. I absolutely loved the fresh and fruity notes. But then it was also quite musky which was something different. It doesn't smell anything like the original Light Blue version. Nowadays it's hard to get your hands on, which I'm sad about.

Repurchase: yes

Lush Eau Roma Water

One of my all time favorite Lush products are their toners. Tea Tree Water I use when my skin is a bit troubled. On the other hand, Eau Roma Water is nice when my skin gets irritated or I just need a bit of refreshing feeling. Also I love applying it before my daily moisturizer (mattifying cream).

Repurchase: yes

La Roche Posay Micellar Water Ultra

I loved this Micellar Water. It's very effective and removes even a stubborn, ultra black mascara. My eyes don't get irritated and the skin loves them. After trying other makeup removers I've realized that this is one of the best micellar waters I've used. Even the ones I thought were amazing, are nothing comparing to this one. Plus I have love for LRP skincare since everything I try, is very gentle to the skin and usually works. I know the prices is a bit steep but if you have troubled or sensitive skin, you might wanna try it. Read a full review here.

Essence Express Eye Make-Up Remover

I had this makeup remover years ago and I really liked it. On the days when I have heavy makeup or waterproof mascara this is nice. It's a standard double-phase makeup remover so you have to shake it before use. It removes everything. It can be a bit oily, however it doesn't really sting my eyes if I don't blink too much.

Repurchase: yes

La Roche Posay Effaclar Matt

I enjoyed this face cream. It is a perfect makeup base because it's silicon based, so it absorbs quickly and doesn't leave the skin sticky. Plus applying makeup is very smooth. I have a backup which I'll be using again soon, meanwhile I'm testing some other brand. Read full review here.

"Repurchase": yes

Duchesse Duo-Quality Cotton Pads

Because I use up cotton pads so often I like buying cheap ones. These are not the best because they're not thick, but they totally work and I love them. They don't separate or tear, so it's easy to use them.

Repurchase: yes (always)

CadeaVera Antibacterial Make-up Wipes

I buy these sometimes for travelling. Though I'm disappointed every time. These are definitely not gentle to the skin. I usually don't react often to products, but these wipes are hell. They sting each time and make my skin so red. Next time I will choose the Balea ones from DM.

Repurchase: no

Jasmin Girl Intimate Wipes

I buy these from time to time because they're gentle and cheap. Though I prefer Duchesse ones, which are a more wet. I do prefer the packaging because you can close the top (it has a plastic closing).

Repurchase: maybe

Labello Classic

My all time favorite lip balm. It's a bit thicker and looks oily on the lips, however I feel like it is really one of the best (even though ingredients aren't special). For me it just works, so I always repurchase it. But sometimes I switch to Blistex.

Repurchase: yes

Clinique Moisture Surge

I mentioned it here. I know it was a long time ago, however I tried to save it a bit because it's such a nice product. Though there is always a date of use, so I had to use it up. I just have to say that it is so nicely hydrating. I'm not sure if I want to spend so much on a face cream, but it is quite good - of course, it is very hyped up.

Purchase: maybe

Hi girls.

It's time for another empties post. I actually did an empties on Instagram (you can find it in highlights here) with some of my favorite products. Still I had a basket full of empty products which I'm going to share with you today.

Batiste Original dry shampoo

Batiste is my favorite dry shampoo of all times. Though I'm a bit picky with the scents and you cannot get a tropical scent in our country anymore. So I usually buy the Original version these days. This dry shampoo is just hard core and it works amazing even if your hair is really greasy. It can be a bit white sometimes, but I just use hair dryer to get it off.

Repurchase: always

Batiste Blonde dry shampoo

Got2b Fresh It Up dry shampoo

This dry shampoo was kinda "meh". I really liked the fresh scent, however it didn't do much. It didn't get rid of greasy hair. Though I used it on the second day when I felt like my hair needs some refreshment, so they smelled nice afterwards. Plus it wasn't white at all. I miss the Volumania Styling Powder which was as refreshing, but worked a bit towards greasy hair as well.

Repurchase: no

L'Oreal Elseve Extraordinary Clay Mask

I rarely like drugstore shampoos and products for oily hair (I mostly buy Lush hair carem especially solid shampoo - less packaging, less waste), however this line is really good. I love the shampoo and I use it here and there. This hair mask was interesting as well. You apply it onto the scalp and it's like a pre-wash. It hardens and then you wash it off with a shampoo. Then you shampoo your hair as usual. When I was lazy, I would apply this and only shampoo my hair once. It saved a bit of my time. But it can be messy.

Repurchase: maybe

Batiste Dry Shampoo - Cherry (mini)

And of course when travelling I also bring dry shampoo. However, the only mini version available in Müller drugstore is in the Cherry scent. I really dislike this scent because it's so sweet and artificial. Though the texture and effect is still the same as with any other Batiste shampoos, so I buy it anyways.

Repurchase: yes (because of travelling)

I absolutely loved the smell of this micellar water. It was something different but nice. It removed my makeup well and didn't leave the skin dried out. Though sometimes it would sting my eyes. Read more about it here.

Repurchase: maybe

La Roche Posay Thermal Water

There's nothing special about this thermal water (as with each one of them). It's just great to have as a refreshment in the summer to spray on your face or body. A tip: you can spray this water towards a fan and the water hits you all over the body and refreshes you. Though these thermal waters are quite expensive. You can check Balea water or such.

Repurchase: no

Nivea Micellar Water

This was a really good micellar water. Of course it's scent free. But also it removes makeup very well. It didn't sting my eyes or anything and it was very gentle.

Repurchase: maybe

L'Occitane Aqua Réotier Ultra Thirst-Quenching Cream

I think I've talked about this cream enough, however it deserves it. It is just a great face cream. I used it before bed and I felt like it really hydrated my skin. It wasn't sticky or oily. However it was really rich and nicely moisturizing. Read more about the entire line here.

Repurchase: maybe (I have too many creams at the moment)

Clarins Instant Eye Make-Up Remover

This is just a standard duo-phase makeup remover. You shake it before use and the oil mixes with other liquid. Such removers are great at removing stubborn eye makeup. Though I can tell you that I cannot see a difference between this more expensive one and Essence one. I just used it up since I got it in a travel skincare kit.

Repurchase: no

Jessa Intimate Wash - Sensitive

Some bloggers have raved about this intimate wash, so of course I had to try it. Some also use it for the face. But I used it the original way and it was a nice wash. All though I didn't notice anything special. It doesn't have any fragrance to it, which I liked.

Repurchase: maybe

The Body Shop Vanilla Pumpkin Shower Gel

This was such a nice creamy shower gel. Definitely on the thicker, luxurious side. I saved it a bit, but then I have to use up stuff eventually. It smelled like some cookies with vanilla. I absolutely loved the scent. It was a limited edition for last year's fall, but maybe they will bring it back some time. Blog post here.

Repurchase: definitely would

The Body Shop Ginger Shower Gel

Another limited edition shower gel. This one is a complete oposite. The scent was very refreshing, like ginger lemonade. And it was more gel-like. However it was amazing for summer time. I just love TBS shower gels because they feel luxurious and pampering.

Repurchase: yes

Rexona Invisible Anti-Perspirant Active Protection +

I like Rexona deodorants, but after trying this one, it is now my winner. I always choose the ones for black and white clothing. This one lasts even longer and acts even more when you get active. I mostly also love this one for the scent because it's kind of a powdery one and out of all other Rexona deodorants, this one doesn't make me choke on it.

Repurchase: already have

Garnier Protection Invisible Anti-Perspirant - Floral Fresh & Cotton Fresh

These deodorants are quite nice. I use them in between the use of Rexona, so my body doesn't get so used to only one deodorant. They're good and keep you stinky free for a long time. Though I just somehow prefer Rexona. Plus I picked them up when they're on 1+1 in DM.

Repurchase: maybe

Duchesse Cotton Pads - Duo Quality

Because I use up cotton pads so often I like buying cheap ones. These are not the best because they're a bit thinner, but they totally work and I love them. They don't separate or anything, so it's easy to use them.

Repurchase: yes (always)

Duchesse Intimate Wipes - Sensitive

I really like these. They are wet enough and nicely calming. I use them mostly during that "time of the month" to keep myself nicely clean.

Repurchase: yes

Labello Labellino Fresh Mint lip balm

I wrote a bit about Labellino's here. Even though this minty one wasn't my favorite scent, I used it quite often at home. It has a light weight texture but still has some nourishing properties. Plus it's fun to use. I definitely recommend the new Grapefruit & Maracuja scent.

Repurchase: probably not this scent

Biobaza Bee Balm

I bought this lip balm because I heard some good things about Biobaza lipbalms. I chose the honey one. At first I thought it was quite dry but somehow a bit waxy. So it really stuck to the lips. The scent wasn't my favorite, however it is natural, so it's all good. It was a good lip balm, however if you want more of an oily consistency, maybe choose something else.

Repurchase: maybe

Hi girls.

I know I haven't written anything in a while. Well, I've been testing some skincare and such which take so much time to test properly. Meanwhile, here is what I used up...

The Body Shop Mango Shower Gel

I absolutely loved this shower gel. The scent was so refreshing and yummy. I'm not sure it smelled like mangoes, maybe a bit fresher and with a zesty undertone. It foamed up nicely and was so nice to shower with.

Repurchase: yes

CD Pomegranate Shower Gel

Another refreshing shower gel. This one didn't wow me as much as it had a slight scent of alcohol, however it was still nice to freshen up.

Repurchase: no

Planet Spa Caribbean Escape Luxurious Bath Elixir

This was some kind of bubble bath. It made some bubbles, but not that much. However it made my skin a bit more silky. The scent wasn't anything special, but it was a relaxing one.

Repurchase: maybe

Mirati Face Wash

One of my favorite skincare products since 2016. This face wash is gentle but refreshing with a lemon scent. It cleans the skin very well while not drying it up at all. Plus it's mostly natural. Review here.
Repurchase: probably

Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water

This is one of the best micellar waters I've tried. I love the La Roche Posay Ultra one, however this one is as nice but it's quite cheaper. It really does remove even the blackest mascara without irritating the eyes.

Repurchase: yes

L'Oreal Pure Clay Cleansing Gel

I love cleansing gels and this one was nice as well. Although because it has clay in it, I didn't use it every day, because it was really deeply cleansing. It removed the remains of the makeup very well and it didn't dry out my skin (though my skin type is oily).

Repurchase: maybe

Soraya Care Control Mattifying Cream

I love trying new face cream with matt effect because my skin gets quite oily. This one had a nice fresh scent. I did think it helped combating the oils, however I have other creams that work better.

Repurchase: no

Rexona Active Protection+ Invisible Anti-perspirant

I like Rexona deodorants, but after trying this one, it is now my winner. I always choose the ones for black and white clothing. This one lasts even longer and acts even more when you get active. I mostly also love this one for the scent because it's kind of a powdery one and out of all other Rexona deodorants, this one doesn't make me choke on it.

Repurchase: already have

Rexona Stress Control deodorant

I think this one was one of my favorite deodorants so far. I love Rexona for hot and busy days since it protects me very well, however this one is a bit more special. Well, it just has that fresh, citrus smell to it which I love ! Sadly it is not made for black clothes.

Repurchase: yes

Garnier Mineral Protection Anti-perspirant

This is a decent deodorant. It protects me quite well, but I don't love the scent and I don't think it's as good as Rexona. I might switch to it again when I feel like Rexona doesn't work for me anymore.

Tigi Bed Head Oh Bee Hive! Dry Shampoo

The best dry shampoo I've ever tried. I do love Batiste, however this one by Tigi is just amazing. First of all, I loved the sweet scent which made my hair smell so nice for a whole day. The texture is transparent and sinks in very well without leaving annoying residue. It eliminates oil and gives you a fresh feeling. Although it might not be for the days where your hair is absolutely oily; that's where Batiste comes to help. I just don't like that it's so expensive for a dry shampoo.

Batiste Dry Shampoo - Tropical scent

My favorite Batiste scent - it's just so nice, literally tropical, coconuty. I really like Batiste dry shampoos even tough they're not transparent, so they still leave a white residue, however they're kind of better than all the other ones.

Repurchase: yes

Lush I love Juicy Shampoo

One of my favorite shampoos for oily hair. It has an amazing tropical scent due to all the juices that it contains. It cleanses the hair very well without stripping it or leaving dry. Though I mostly use Lush solid shampoos because they're more environmentally friendly. 

Repurchase: yes

Schwarzkopf Blond Me Color Correction Spray Conditioner

An interesting product for blondes. This spray is rich purple and is supposed to help with correcting the yellow undertones of the hair. Also it has some sparkles in it. I'm not sure that it works great as a neutralizer, however I think it's better to use this one, than any other yellow oily conditioners. If you're looking for a great product to get you rid of the yellow tones, I recommend you Ice cream No-yellow shampoo (find it here) because that one is really good.

Afrodita Cosmetics Calendula Hand Cream

Afrodita has some nice products and usually doesn't disappoint me. Well, this hand cream was nice as well. It was nicely rich and texture sinks into the skin quite quick. The scent is a bit natural but pleasant. It worked well and I would buy it again.

Repurchase: yes

Caudalie The des Vignes Hand Cream

I like the original Caudalie hand cream and this one had the same texture but different scent. It was a bit more floral. You can read more about the whole line here.

The Body Shop Frosted Cranberry Hand Cream

This is last years (2017) Christmas scent which I loved so much. I saved this cream a little bit because I just loved the scent. The texture was thinner, though it absorbed quickly. It wasn't the most moisturizing hand cream, however the scent made happy each time I used it.

Repurchase: yes

Essence Lip Ritual Repairing Lip Balm

I thought this lip balm would be nothing special, however it surprised me. By the look, it doesn't seem oily or buttery. The texture is light, but nicely hydrating. Cannot say that it repaired my lips, however it was moisturising enough. Plus the scent was interesting; fresh.

Jasmin Girl Intimate Wipes

These are ok, but nothing special. I do still buy them from time to time because they're gentle and cheap. Plus the packaging is nice because you can actually close it with a plastic lid. Though I prefer Duchesse ones, which are a bit wetter.

Velnea Make-up Remover Wipes

I bought these because I went to the pool and needed to remove my makeup. I always just pick some random makeup wipes. Well, I didn't like these. Nowadays I think there are just a few makeup wipes that would not get my skin irritated. These ones made my eyes sting and my skin was quite red afterwards. I used them up while doing some swatches and such.

Repurchase: no

Duchesse Cosmetic Cotton Pads

Because I use up cotton pads so often I like buying cheap ones. These are not the best because they're a bit thinner, but they totally work and I love them. They don't separate or anything, so it's easy to use them.
Repurchase: yes (always)

Duchesse Cosmetic Cotton Pads (Sand-Dorn Extract)
I did really enjoy these cotton pads as they were a bit thicker, so they were easier to use. Though I still buy the cheapest ones from Duchesse.
