Shower Gel and why I am not allowed to buy anymore...

Hello sweeties <3

Today marks the start of another challenge for me! This time I challenge myself to NOT buy anymore showergels for the next 6 months...probably? And now you might ask why? Well, over the last year I accumulated waaaaaay to many shower gels >>"  *points down*

I really love buying new showergels because I am absolutely obsessed with new scents in my shower but as you can see it really went out of hand x"D Over 20 showergels for only one person is...stupid xD

I am addicted...to handcream~

Hello sweeties <3

Today I want to talk about one of my many many addictions -  handcreams!

Even though I already have loads and loads of handcreams I can't stop myself from buying even more. Especially when there is a Limited Edition I have to at least buy one back-up ^^" Does anyone of you have the same problem? x"D

This is my collection at the moment...after I gave away at least half of it...yep, I nearly had 20 different handcreams at my disposal...but hey, this is not as bad as my showergel "collection"...if you want to see that I can also show it to you *hahaha*

Cake Snow Woman in the scent Vanilla - I received this in a swap from Canada and love the scent to death. Unfortunately it was a limited edition and we don't have the brand in Germany T^T

Essence 24h hand protection balm in Caramel Hot Chocolate (2012 LE), Gingerbread Chai Latte (2012 LE) and Banana Dark Chocolate (2013 LE) - I love Christmasy and chocolate scents and couldn't resist getting all of the different scents...but after thinking a long time I decided I only have two hands and gave the rest away as presents ^^"

Balea Limited Edition Raspberry - I don't even know why I bought this one...maybe the package, maybe because it was limited...love the scent though as it is really fruity :3

Alessandro Christmas Time - this I didn't buy myself because it was in a Glossybox...but now I want the fullsize T^T

Nougat Nurturing Hand Cream in Peony - also from a Glossybox...not my favourite scent but it is indeed nurturing.

Caudalie Paris Hand and Nail Cream - not in the picture as I am taking this one everywhere with me. My absolute favourite at the moment...although it is a bit expensive. It is so nurturing and makes your hands feel soft for at least half a day...maybe I am exaggerating but it really feels that way *hahaha* And did I mention taht it smells heavenly? :3

What handcream do you use at the moment? Are you satisfied? 

Have a nice day everyone <3

Updated Skincare Routine

Hello sweeties <3

as it is a new year - already 2 weeks into it - I decided to post an updated skin care routine for you. You can find my old post here if you want to check it out ^^

This is everything I am using at the moment.

In the morning I am either using the Eucerin Dermato Clean or L'oreal Hydra Active 3 Cleansing Fluid to clean of the night. After that I use the Clearasil Daily Clear Refreshing Washgel so my face doesn't feel all sticky anymore. Because after cleaning my face that my skin feels rather dry I have to use a moisturizer. As it comes I am also panicky about every tiny wrinkle that I see (and that probably isn't even there *hahaha*) I am using the Hada Labo Anti Age Lotion and Milk - so I get to moisturize my skin AND I fight against the signs of aging...at least this is what I hope I do *hahaha*

In the evening I am eather using the Balea Cleaning Wipes or L'oreals Hydra Active 3 Cleansing Fluid to remove Make-Up (if I put something on in the morning...sometimes I am just too lazy x"D). After that I I turn to my Holy Grail of facial peelings - the Scrub your nose in it peeling from Soap and Glory that I thought I'd never find again *^* Sooooo happy they have it in stores again although the packaging is rather different...I loved the old packaging *sighs* Anyways, after my face is squeaky clean I am applying the Hada Labo Anti Aginn Serum and Night Cream and I am all finished and wrinkle save ;D

What is your skin care routine? Do you use as many products as I do or do you only need 1 or 2 products?

Have nice start into the weekend my dearies <3

Empties October

Hello sweeties <3

Well, we are already one week into November but I still wanted to post my empties for the last month. So, here we go~

It is mostly skin- and bodycare again as although I am using make-up on a daily basis it doesn't seem to end *hahaha*

Empties September~

Hello sweeties <3

I wanted to to a post like that for the longest time and now I finally did it *yay* Most of the time I just throw everything I used up away as soon as I finish it but in September I finally remembered to keep the package until the end of the month *muahahahaha* So here we go :)

Daily Skin Care

Hello sweeties <3

Until around 1 year ago I didn't think much about my facial skin care as I never had problems with pimples, dark spots etc. I used a cleanser in the morning and if my skind felt overly dry I used some hydrating creme in the evening but that was it. But as I am not getting younger and I want to keep my youthfull complexion *hahaha* for a very long time around 1 year ago I really started with a skin care routine that not only consisted of the above mentioned two steps ;)

Yep~ the products I use for my face drastically increased *haha*

Tiny haul~

Hello sweeties <3

It feels like ages since I did my last haul, so I thought it is time to do one again ;) And although I was going through the city with the intetion to get some new glasses I did everything but buying glasses *haha* Well, I found some cute ones but unfortunately I forgot the prescription I recevied from the doctor...so I have to go back again with the prescription and try again *ahahaha* Anyways, I wouldn't be me if I would come home empty handed. Here is what I got...instead of glasses ^^"

Essence Pure Skin Pore Refining Serum - because I have big pores and Koo-chan recommended this to me :)

Balea Professional Silberglanz Shampoo - Maybe the color will come out of my hair faster with this shampoo...for 1,45 EUR it is worth a shot~

Balea Beauty Effect Day Fluiy SPF 15 - This should help remove tiny wrinkles you get from laughing etc. As I am not getting younger I thought it is worth a try. For 3,45 EUR it is worth a shot, right?

Balea Cell Energy Night Elixer - Regernerates the skin with PhytocellTec...well, wasn't to expensive either. We are not getting younger here *coughs*

Balea Erdbeer Momente Showergel - It smells so delicious like strawberries <3 Need there be another reason? ;)

Nivea In-Dusch Body Milk Travel Size - I already have the big bottle and so far I really like it (review coming soon) and I thought for travelling this tiny bottle is just perfect :)

Space Invaders + Drugstore Haul

Hello sweeties <3

How was your weekend? I was rather lazy but still got several things done ^^b On Saturday I went to dm again and made my nailpolish collection even bigger and on Sunday I finally colored my hair again....yep, you are reading right...but instead of color from the drugstore I used the haircolor by Sante which is made of Henna. I have to say it was an interesting experience xD At first you have to boil water and put some tea into it to make the color pop more. After that you have to mix in the Henna. This mixture really smells like earth and mine looked green in the beginning...I was worried that it would stay that way but it turned black *haha* After the mixture cooled down a bit my collegue put it onto my head and there it stayed for 2 hours...well, not all of it because something was dripping on my face xD Although the procedure takes way longer than drugstore hair color my hair and scalp didn't behave weirdly afterwards...I would say it even felt better afterwards :3

Don't be sad, be happy instead!

Hello my sweeties <3

Although last week wasn't the best the weekend made up for it a thousand times <3 Until Friday I wasn't really feeling that good and so for Saturday I decided that I wasn't going to be sad anymore and meet up with my new collegue in Stuttgart instead *yay* We did some shopping, had something to eat and just chatted about the things we have in common like reading the same books and totally loving british TV-shows It is funny how much we have in common *haha* And we only know each other for a week now xD
