// Short shopping trip with dad

Hello Internet!

I'm so sorry for not posting for...well, it felt like I haven't posted in ages!
But a lot of (v v v awesome) things happened during the past weeks but I'll post about those things in the near future, so you better stay tuned ;)

Anyway, I went on a shopping trip with my dad and ended up buying some beauty products.
Just like always haha


 Unfortunately, I can't remember the exact prices but I'll tell you what I think how much these products were :'D


Batiste Dry Shampoo ~ 4€
I love Batiste so much, those dry shampoos are the best I ever had and they actually really work for about one day.

Sagrotan profresh shower gel ~ 2€
I heard a lot of positive things about this one so I decided to try it.
It smells like peaches and raspberries but I wouldn't say that the "I just took a shower" feeling lasts longer (which is what the ad actually promised)


Maybelline dream Wonder Nude ~ 10€
I was super curious about this fluid makeup.
My skin is really bad and during summer I don't feel like putting a lot of makeup on my face, as my skin gets worse and worse each time but on the other hand, I'd never go out without makeup.
This product claims to be lightweight (which it absolutely is) and  it has a satin finish.
Surprisingly, it really covers spots eventhough the texture is almost like water.
It feels, like you're not wearing makeup and I love it so much.
Deffo going to buy this again!


Maybelline Fit me! powder in 120 ~6€
I thought I should try Fit me! products again because I used to like them.
But this power isn't as good as I thought it was.
I need a powder with at least medium coverage and this one doesn't cover spots at all.
Going to use it until it's empty anyway :)


Maybelline Lash sensational ~ 10€
MY NEW MASCARA LOVE!
I didn't think that this mascara would be worth the hype.
But it SO is!
It really separates your lashes and they're just so beautiful in the end.
I LOVE IT!



Catrice eyebrow stylist ~ 2,50€
 I was tired of using eyebrow powder.
So now I'm using eyebrow powder AND an eyebrow pencil haha
Catrice eyebrow products are awesome, and I'd deffo recommend this one :)



DKNY delicious delights ~ 40€
Heaven in a bottle, guys!
This perfume smells like peaches (I love it so much omg) and it's so refreshing, you need to get yourself at least ONE of these.
The only thing that's a bit sad about this is the following:
It's an EDT.
Which means you won't be able to smell it as long as and EDP :(

We're done, guys!
I've been nominated for the "Liebster" Award so that's going to be my next post.
After that, there'll be a post about my 5SOS concert and some product reviews.
If you want a review one one or more products you've just seen: feel free to tell me :)

// Best Surprise EVER?!?

Greetings Internet!

Last week has been a "I hate everything"-one.
Monday explains itself, on Tuesday I had to write an English test (had to write 180 minutes about US immigrants) and there was a rail strike.
Again.
It was like the 8th strike in 10 weeks or so?
As I'm from a small village and as I don't have a driver's license I depend on trains.
So that's why I had some kind of a three-days-holiday last week which I spent revising for my French and German tests. Ugh. Still not feeling well-prepared tbh

Anyway, on Wednesday, day 1 of my three-days-holiday I had the pleasure of receiving a small Amazon parcel and an envelope. 
I was a bit confused as I hadn't ordered anything from Amazon for a while but at the same time, I was curious about what's inside so I opened the envelope at first.

And found 2 Instax films.
I have to be honest: I almost started crying tears of joy.
You need to know that I didn't have an Instax then. I only asked my dad if we still had our old polaroid camera but he told me it was broken so then I asked him to look around and tell me how much Instax' are in shops and I'd then decide whether I should get one in a store or online.
You can probably guess what I found in the parcel.

A Fujifilm instax mini 8.

So that was the moment when I actually started crying haha


The Amazon parcel was well padded and the instax itself was put in bubble wrap just like the batteries. 
The instant films were delivered in a envelope that had bubble wrap on the inside.
None of the items arrived damaged.
But I don't know if the camera works as I haven't tried it yet.
Instax films are expensive and I'm saving them for my 5SOS concert next week haha
Anyway, I guess it'll work just fine :)





So that's my new baby along with my two Nikons and a Canon haha :)
Do you own an instax or even an old polaroid camera?
I wish our old one would still work.
I used to love taking pics with it when I was a child.

// Mini drugstore haul + mini review

Hey Internet,

it's May. Finally. 'Finally' as in "it's finally time for spending some money at the drugstore again".
It's just some kind of a habit that I have.
I just always head to the drugstore during the first three days of a new month haha

I'm a huge superdrug addict but we don't have any stores here in Germany, which is kinda sad.
Like, i love superdrug (and boots) so much because of all the makeup stuff they sell there which I'm only able to buy by ordering it online and I'm not a fan of ordering beauty stuff online as I want my makeup asap!!!
So that's why I always end up strolling through DM which is kind of the German equivalent of superdrug. Just not as cool.

Anyway, I'm going to show you what I bought and I even kept the receipt so I'll even let you know how much I paid for these things.


As you can see, it's the obvious makeup/ hair care stuff haha


I know I said it in other posts but I feel like I have to say it again:
I love face masks.
From left to right:
pore cleansing facial mask - 0,45€
peel off mask - 0,45€ (just tried one, not sure if it was helpful, tho)
dead sea mask - 0,45€


Garnier Nutrisse Creme 101 pearl blonde - 2,95€
Yeah, my purple hair is slowly fading. But I loved it. Bringing it back very very very very ... soon :)
Garnier Fructis Oil Repair - 5,95€
A lot of people recommended this one to me, so I though I should give it a try.


Dove go fresh - 1,65€
Balea bodyspray Golden Shine - 2,45€
The bodyspray just smells heavenly! And it literally covers you in gold haha


Balea Blemish Balm BB Creme - 2,95€
Catrice All Matt plus makeup in 010 light beige - 6,45€ (my fave drugstore makeup!)
Catrice Allround Concealer - 3,45€
Catrice All Matt plus powder in 010 - 3,45€



Catrice Glamour Doll mascara - 3,95€
Actually, I thought this mascara would be great as a lot of people told me positive things about it so I decided to try this. Will this one be my new favourite mascara?
Keep scrolling to find out ;)



Catrice Eyeliner Pen - 2,95€




Maybelline Brow Satin Duo in med. brown - 7,85€
The pug... I paid 7,85€ for this?
Hahaha I just couldn't figure out the price at the store and thought it won't be that expensive.
Wow. I'm kind of surprised right now.

Anyway, I heard a lot of good things about the mascara, the brow duo and the eyeliner so I had to try them as soon as I came home:


First of all:
After trying these products, all I can say is that they're worth the money.
Glamour Doll mascara: It's an "okay" mascara. I love how your lashes are deeeeeep deeeeep black after using it but they're not that volumized.
I'm usually using Lash Princess by essence and it's still my favourite mascara. It makes your lashes longer and seperates them better than Glamour Doll does and I think they both have the same price.
Catrice Eyeliner Pen: It's just that kind of eyeliner pen I wanted. But it isn't waterproof. Found that out while I was chopping onions ;)
Maybelline Brow Satin Duo: MY NEW LOVE! I love it! I love how it has an eyebrow pen and and eyebrow powder and it's perfect for creating that faded look.

What are your favourite drugstore brands?
Mine are simple, Catrice and Maybelline haha :)
