Normally, I wouldn’t have done an empties post this month because I don’t have that many things to talk about since I reviewed most new products that I used on one hand and I didn’t have many other products to try out. But, since December is around the corner and I think that maybe I will have some reviews to do, I decided not to hold these aside for another month.

Let’s start with some shower gels first because I go through these the fastest.

Avon Cherry Bomb shower gel – this one is supposed to be from the Childhood Memories Collection, but I don’t know what that means because Avon does pump out a lot of collections and new products all the time, especially when it comes to bath and body products. I liked the scent, it did have a very yummy cherry scent, but the bright red color did freak me out a little bit because it looked like I stabbed myself in the shower each time I would use this.

Molton Brown Relaxing Ylang-Ylang bath & shower gel – I got this one in this month’s Lookfantastic beauty box. Normally, I would love me some Molton Brown shower gel because it’s so luxurious and a little really goes a long way, but I was not a fan of the scent of this one. And since Molton Brown shower gels to have a lasting scent, it was not particularly fun to use it.

Ritual Of Mehr body cream – I was excited to get this body cream in last month’s Lookfantastic beauty box, but I really don’t like the scent of it. The cream does feel nice on the skin and it does a good job at moisturizing, but this is definitely not a line that I would like to explore further.

Herbal hand cream with almond oil – I got this hand cream as a gift from my sister-in-law when she was on vacation in Bulgaria. I’m not familiar with the brand, but the hand cream was great. Very hydrating without feeling greasy on the hands. Plus, I like everything that has almond oil in it.

Bloom & Blossom Wonder Worker multi-tasking balm – I didn’t like this one at all and I’ve dragging to use it up for months. It feels like vaseline and I ended up using it on my elbows because as a lip balm I couldn’t get over the strong herbal scent.

Prai Ageless throat & decolletage cream – another product from this month’s Lookfantastic beauty box. it fells very nice on the skin and it had a very nice scent, but neck creams are just gimmicks in my opinion. I use just my regular moisturizer or even a normal body cream each night and I’m fine.

Cien Caring Colour Conditioner – I got this one from my local Lidl store, but honestly it’s that cheap for a reason. I had no high expectations for a 1 euro conditioner but when I used this one it was like I wasn’t anything at all. My hair still felt dry and I didn’t notice any brilliance added to my hair’s appearance.

Taft 7 Days Volume Styling Balm – I got this from the clearance section at my local DM store and it was there for a reason. This is supposed to be a leave-in balm that adds volume to your hair. Well, it does add volume but it also makes it look sticky and greasy at the same time. I used it only three times but then I had to give it up because my hair just looks awful when I use it. I don’t recommend it all.

Avon Soft Musk EDP – I liked this perfume because it was a nice combination between the musk notes and the sweet chocolate notes, but it doesn’t have any longevity on my skin. It’s a cheap perfume and I didn’t expect it to have, but still. For everyday it was nice enough.

Korika SciBeauty Stress-shield face sheet mask – it was the second sheet mask I used from Korika and I’m still not impressed with their products. It’s a little more expensive, like around 5 euros, but honestly I see no difference between this one and a 2 euros sheet mask from Balea, for example.

Le Mini Macaron moisturizing foot mask with lavender – I actually quite enjoyed this foot mask because there were some cute socks made out of some fabric and they felt very nice on the feet, not just the usual plastic socks that I’ve seen with other masks of this type. I did feel pampered when I used this one and I would use it again.

As you probably noticed already, there’s a recurring theme with these products. Most of them I didn’t like because I didn’t like the scent. What can I say? I really care about scents in beauty products and that’s why I don’t mind if something smells nice even if it means that it contains some perfume.

Tomorrow I will be starting to open my advent calendars since I have 3 this year (I got the Sinsay jewelry one as well), so probably I’ll check in with you in 4 days to show you what I got so far.

Have a wonderful December and a holiday season filled with joy!
