#Blogcember 2020 Day 6: Beauty products fails and disappointments of 2020
I know this seems like I’m a little on the negative trend these days, but I wanted to get the beauty products that I really didn’t like or that disappointed me this year out of the way before I start doing my best ones. I like to think that I’m a smart shopper so I…

#Blogcember 2020 Day 5: My perfume collection 2020
I don’t know if I mentioned this before, but I love nice perfumes. And by nice I mean expensive ones. The truth is that there are plenty of nice affordable perfumes on the market, but they don’t have the same longevity and complex scent that expensive perfumes have. I can’t afford to buy expensive perfumes…

#Blogcember 2020 Day 4: Cheap winter scented candles recommendations
I decided to talk to you today about scented candles. I don’t usually burn candles during summer just because I keep my windows open almost all of the time so I can get some fresh air so candles would be useless. However, during winter I like to burn candles in the evening, especially ones with…

#Blogcember 2020 Day 3: Palettes on my wish list that I talked myself out of buying
Probably everyone that loves makeup knows how difficult it is not to develop a problem with the hoarding of eyeshadow palettes. You know you don’t need more than 2 or 3 because it’s difficult to ever hit pan on them, not to mention to actually use them up but…somehow we all want them. Since I’m…

#Blogcember 2020 Day 1: Used-up and tested #24 – beauty products leaving my collection

Open my 2019 essence Advent Calendar with me! – Days 22 – 24
essence mini nail polish 06 meet me under the mistletoe Soooo, here’s nail polish number 6! I can’t believe we get 6 nail polishes in this advent calendar, that’s like 1/4 of the products which I think it’s a little overdoing it. This is a dark blood red color, a little more vampy, which I…

Open my 2019 essence Advent Calendar with me! – Days 19 – 21
essence pocket mirror Another “filler” product in this calendar is this small mirror. It’s cute and all but I don’t think it’s very practical when you don’t have a lid to cover it up and prevent it from scratching. I don’t know the price for this small mirror, but I’ll give it 1 euro, although…

Open my 2019 essence Advent Calendar with me! – Days 16 – 18
essence mini nail polish 01 holly jolly x-mas Yay, another nail polish. Just kidding. Now we’re at nail polish number 4 an I would be happier if these essence nail polishes would last longer on my nails than 2 day. The color is beautiful, something like a mauve-taupe combination with a metallic finish but I…

Open my 2019 essence Advent Calendar with me! – Days 13 – 15
essence Eyebrow Designer pencil 04 blonde Day 13 was also kind of a bummer for me. I don’t know why the products in this advent calendar kind of suck right in the middle. It’s nice to have an eyebrow pencil (although I rarely use one), but the color is way to light for my black…
