Monthly favorites January….

Hi dolls,
today is the last day of the first month this year and I have to admit I got some stuff done I wanted do to for a long time so I am pretty proud of myself, I also had my birthday celebrations as I turned older in the middle of the month and we already booked one vacation for this year. And of course there are some products which turned out to be my favorites this January:
Rituals The Ritual of Sakura Set
I got this as a present from Florians mom for hosting the Christmas dinner and I haven´t had a chance to try it out since then and I have to admit – this is awesome. The main indgridients are rice milk and cherry blossoms.

EOS Hand Lotion
Normally I am using a Neutrogena hand lotion in Winter but for about two weeks our local drug store carries this brand and I had to had this lotion. It is fresh flowers and the smell is so good. It is so intensive and I just love every scent which comes with it.

Armani Jeans Hand bag
Got this as a pre-birthday present from Florian and I just love it. The color, the size, the shape – everything about it is perfect.

Black marble calendar
I found this one by coincidence while I was looking at some pics on Instagram and this one has catched my eye so I went on their page and ordered one. That´s the whole magic. It is pretty nice with lots of space to write in. The Website is called planyourlife.de


Real Techniques Brush Set
I had my eye on this for a long time and I finally got it for my birthday (and also got a voucher for my birthday for my favorite beauty store – Douglas). I love the design it is a classic black and white design with a modern twist. The hairs are so soft and great for appealing make-up
This is the Berlin trend Edition.

Flower necklace
I got this super cute necklace from the H&M Winter sale. This would make a great piece for Spring. And after Christmas I am so in love with everything pink now. And this was a steal for only 5 Euros. 

Thanks for stopping by.

Take care. See you.

How To avoid dry skin during the winter….

….

Hi guys,
since
the days are getting shorter and the temperatures are dropping we are
heading straight into winter. And for those couple months our skin needs
some extra care. Our skin is working really hard to stay hydrated but
with the cold and dry air outside and the warm and dry air inside most
of us need a little support. 
I am using a body scrub once a week or this exfoliating glove with a shower gel.
Here are some of my favorites I had already tried the last weeks and I won´t stop using them until Sommer is here again.

For
me the best I could found it the Neutrogena series. I have been using
their hand Lotion for years now and I recently found out that they have a
foot lotion and of course a body lotion.

I
am already convinced from their hand lotions so lets go on with the
other products – the deep moisture all in body lotion is incredible
good. The smell is really light and so fresh and it gets really quickly
into your skin so if you apply it in the morning after showering you are
able to dress up fast and you won´t get stuck in your pants and it also
doesn´t leave that sticky feeling on your skin like other oily lotions.

The foot lotion is really great too.
I
do have very dry feet in the winter months. I think this comes from
wearing socks and tights all the time and also your feet – or just mine
aren´t able to breath that much in boots like in sandals so they just
dry out. I do not like the smell of the foot lotion but I am keeping it
and still using it because it really helps a lot.

Seit
die Tage kürzer und werden und die Temperaturen fallen wissen wir
definitiv das es Winter ist und genau für diese paar Monate brauchen wir
spezielle Pflege für unsere Haut. Diese hat schwer zu schaffen um
unsere Haut mit Feuchtigkeit zu versorgen mit vor allem mit der kalten
Luft draußen und der warmen trockenen Luft innen. Dabei muss etwas
nachgeholfen werden.

Einmal
pro Woche mache ich ein Bodypeeling mit einem dieser Loofahandschuhe
und einem Duschgel. Danach kann die Haut die Lotion besonders gut
aufnehmen. Die beste Lotion für den Winter ist für mich die Bodylotion
aus der Neutrogena Serie. Ich benutze die Handlotion schon seit Jahren
und vor ein paar Monaten habe ich herausgefunden, dass es ebenfalls eine
Fußcreme gibt. Und natürlich die Bodylotion.

Da
ich ja bereits sehr überzeugt bin von der Handcreme (die einzige die
Florian benutzt) rede  ich mal über die anderen zwei Produkte.
Die
Bodylotion kommt in einem Pumpspender was ich sehr praktisch finde und
ist einfach super. Sie zieht sehr schnell ein – oder meine Haut ist
einfach wahnsinnig trocken – außerdem hat sie einen angenehmen dezenten
Geruch und was für mich am wichtigsten ist – sie klebt nicht.

Die
Fußcreme ist auch super gut. Ich habe furchtbar trockene Füße in den
Wintermonaten. Ich denke das kommt von den Socken und Strumpfhosen die
man den ganzen Winter über an hat. Wahrscheinlich bekommen sie in den
Stiefeln einfach nicht so viel Luft wie in Sandalen und trocknen
deswegen schneller aus. Der einzige Kritikpunkt ist das ich den Geruch
sehr gewöhnungsbedürftig finde, da ich sie aber vor dem Schlafengehen
benutze und ich den Geruch da nicht so mitbekomme habe ich sie trotzdem
behalten, da meine Füße davon einfach wieder weich werden.

Do you have any skincare favorites for the cold Winter months. I really would like to know.

Take care. See you.

Essence – Velvet sticks matte lip color…






Hi beauties, 
you might know by now that my favorite make-up products are lipsticks. And for all my new readers so –  Hi I am Katie and a lipstick addict.

I recently found out about these lip pencils from essence. They have such a variety on different products and I am also using other brands, that sometimes I don´t recognize the newest arrivals and I do not know if they are brandnew but despite that I truly like them. There are five different colors:

 – 01 nude hero
 – 02 peony star 
  – 03 mega melon
  – 04 cherry crash
 – 05 plum perfect

I like the cherry and the peony one the most but that is just my color preference. In texture they are all the same. They have a soft and matte finish and are easy to apply.

Thanks for stopping by.

Take care. See you.

We are…. – essence Trend edition….

Hi beauties,

two days ago I finally found a store where they had this absolute gorgeous (already spotted it on their Website) trend edition from essence. I had to have this so bad and went to my local stores every second day (they might think I am going crazy) but this is the cutest Valentines Day collection I have ever seen (insert heart eye emoji here).


Vor zwei Tagen habe ich endlich Produkte der momentanen essence Trend Edition ergattern können (habe diese im Internet schon ausgiebig betrachtet). Ich wollte diese unbedingt haben, sodass ich jeden zweiten Tag in unsere Geschäfte geschaut hab ob diese schon erhältlich ist (warscheinlich denke die auch schon das ich spinne) aber das ist die mit Abstand süßeste Valentinstag Edition die ich jemals gesehen hab.

I got the:
….flawless contouring lipliner in P.S. we <3 pink / P.S. we <3 red / P.S. we <3 berry
 I always liked their lipliner a lot. I got a buch of the first ones which had no mechanism to turn them up when they are blunt – I still had to sharpen them with a sharpener. I like the new design much better and I love that they are perfectly matching with the lipsticks from this edition. Also you can use them as a lipstick too when you are coloring your whole lip and not only draw the contours.

….velvet matte lipsticks in P.S. we <3 pink / P.S. we <3 berry / P.S. we <3 berry
 Aren´t these just adorable ? I love them just so much cause they are so cute. I got all three colors with matching lip liners. This is really rare. Usually they don´t have the exact matching liners to the lipsticks. They have a heart shaped stick which is so creative. The shell is high-shine black and has also little drawn hearts on it.

….nail polish in I have grey times with you
 Usually I am a glitter nailpolih fan or at least for red or pink (did not buy these cause I have a ton of red and pink ones at home) but I wanted to give it a try as it fits perfectly to the snowy and cold season. It is a light grey shade and doesn´t get much darker buy appyling it several times. It really is high shine which is pretty nice but it starts chipping really quick. But I gotta say for the price of 3 Euros it is totally worth it. Just add some top coat for a longer lasting.

….mulitcolor blush in you & me = awesome
 I almost did not want to try this blush because the structure is so nice but why buying it when not using it so I did it. You can use the colors single or mix up together. The lighter shade is pretty sheer so you should create more layers on your skin but the darker shade is pretty nice by itself. I haven´t mixed it up until now and I am not sure if I do because I don´t like having other color particles in the shades.

….lip bag 
 This is the cutest little bag for make-up or lipsticks or hair accessories or whatever you like you can carry around with you. Just so sweet <3
What do you think about it ? Let me know ? 
Thanks for stopping by and have a nice weekend.
Take care. See you.
