NEW IN November :)

Hello! And it's that time of the year again... yes, it's gone by way too fast! I haven't really been up to much in November, just working on my studies and trying to post as much as possible. I have a lot of products that I still want to review so, you can expect more reviews in the future. I know it can get a bit borring to read just reviews, but all I have time for is this so... and it makes me happy to talk at length about a specific product and that's all that matters! I haven't been much to the stores this month, no advent calendar to show you or anything like that.. just a couple of goodies I bought, a couple I got to review and a couple of gifts!

First I bought a new Balea shower gel, it's from their latest winter limited edition called Frost Flower and smells of roses and maracuja, a very interesting combination that comes in a deep green colour! Really fun to use! Second I treated my self with a product similar to Kozmetika Afrodita's under eye mask - Balea Augen - und Lippenmaske. I haven't gotten around to try it out yet, but I hope I will soon. One of my more recent purchases was this Refreshing toner Lavander and Tea Tree by Krasna, which I have had before and have already posted a full review about it here. So this is just a repurchase really, I have finally ran out of all toners and such products, I only have a little bit of Melvita Rose water left, so it was time to buy it! Plus you have 50% off with a coupon at DM stores until 12th of December. :P

Essence Winter? Wonderful! LE   has been on my wishlist since I saw the promo photos! I was lucky enough to catch the last hand cream 01 You melt my heart that was still on the stand at my local Muller store! The other two products I received for review purposes, I got a lovely blush in shade  01 Winter Kissed Cheeks and Tint & oil for lips in shade  01  If Kisses Were Snowflakes...! I am very pleased with all three products! So far my first impressions are very positive!

You may be wondering what these are, but if you follow and read me for a longer period of time you will know I am very fond of Maybelline's Color Tattoos and of course I had to get the new shades. I wanted to post about them sooner, but I wanted to get all four shades first and here they are! I got Color  24hr Tattoo Creamy Mattes in shades Creme de Nude, Creme de Rose,  Vintage Plum, Creamy Beige. Love them all, especially the Creamy Beige! A review is coming up in December!

 Another limited edition by Essence! This one was so hyped up I was barely able to get anything from it and I bough these online at Click2chic. While I was ordering it was constanly changing, one second the product was available, the next it was gone. Last week I kinda ran unexpectedly into a full stand and I got a little something for Christmas gifts as well! From the Merry Berry LE I have Scented gold dust powders 01 I love my golden pumps, lipsticks in 03 Red rocks and 01 Let's the berry - tales begin, nail polish in 01 The masked ball. So far I love the lipsticks, the nail polish didn't impress me as the shade doesn't really show up as it looks in the bottle. And the shimmery golden dust may look pretty but doesn't actually work well, at first it didn't disperse any product, now it comes out in big lumps... not my best purchase it would seem.

One of the highlights of November was another blogger event - I was invited to L'Occitane store for the presentation of the new holiday collections. I have posted about the event and about some gift ideas and also already posted some of my first impressions here. I got a lovely personalized gift before I left with my name on and a gift card with my name on (love that they added my blogs name as well). From the products I got L'Occitane Jasmin- Immortelle Neroli body lotion, Pamplemousse  Rhubarbe hand cream and Miel Mandarine lip balm. I especially love the lip balm and hand cream! Been using them all the time lately!

And a couple of products I have received for review purposes. Vichy pampered me with Dermablend Fluid Corrective foundation 16 hr in shade 25 Nude and mini foundation brush. I am really impressed by Dermablend foundation! I have not expected it to give me so much coverage! The shade is maybe a bit more yellow than I'm used to but I really like it so far! Also looks so smooth and matte on my face! I have wanted to try this foundation for a long time now and we are headed off with a good start!

From Oriflame I have received two lovely products - a lip balm Love Nature with Olive oil! As you know I love lip balms, lip related products, anything for lips really and I like this lip balm a lot! It's not too greasy but still nourishes well! Has a lovely scent to it too! The second product I fell in love with immediately is by Giordani Gold and it's one of the three  Eye Shadow quads in shade Radiant Plum! I love these shades, they are so perfect for a lovely glammed up evening look or just for everyday use! Love the golden shade in the palette and the rosy - violet ones as well, as all three are matte! And so soft!

And some gifts! I have been well pampered this month! I have received a bunch of lipsticks - from Catrice I got two lipsticks from their latest limited editions - Treasure Trove LE Precious Lip Colour C03 Treasured Twinkles and Alluring Reds Matt Lip Colour C02 Striking M- attitude. I also got a Bourjois  lippie, I have not tried this collection yet, even though it has been available for a couple of months now, I got Rouge Edition AQUA Laque in shade 03 Brun'croyable.  And the last two lipsticks I have received are by L'Oreal, both are from the new collections, I have just spotted them in stores this month. I got Matte lip gloss in shade 407 Smoke me up and L'Oreal  Collection Exclusive by Eva  Color Riche lipstick in shade Eva's Delicate Rose. And the last one I bough myself is a lip balm by Balea, called Crazy Raspberry, one of the summer limited editions that are now on discount as they won't be selling these anymore.

And the sweetest part of the month I kept for last! I got this gorgeous  book Face Paint by Lisa Eldridge as a gift from my better half! This was actually a gift for our anniversary that arrived early and so I got it a bit sooner! I love it! It's easy to read, with a lot of graphic material and interesting details! It's really perfect for all makeup lovers who want to know more than just how to create a specific look!

Do you like my new products? I must say this month I have only the best of the best, products I actually wanted to get and bought only what I really wanted to have. Really pleased with myself for keeping a leash on my spending, spent little money for a lot of products and also I must admit I love to be pampered - I got so many gifts and received lovely products to review! Me happy!

Thanks for reading!

Love, UniqaPoly
