// Day off in Berlin

Hello lovely people ♥

First of all, I wish you guys all the best for your last chapter of 2014 and I hope it won't suck as much as the last months did haha

Anyway, December kicked off pretty decent for all students of my school (and as far as I'm concerned for all the other students in town) because December 1st was a day off and how do you celebrate these days when you just got money?

With shopping, yea. And that's pretty much what I did on Monday. During the "early hours" it was the most stressful Monday I had in a while because when I checked my bank account, I didn't have enough money and so I called my dad because he's the one who transfers my money every month and after like 1 hour he found out he accidentally transferred it to a wrong bank account and my mother had to lend me some (THANKS MUM!).

After that, I met up with a friend and we took the next train to Berlin.

When we got there, the first shop I had to go to was Lush. And I have to admit that I've been there before for only one time (and I was lurking in front of the one at Westfield's but I didn't get inside because I was afraid I'd spend too much money so it doesn't count) but this time I had to buy something I had seen in their catalogue: a bathbomb called "Granny Takes A Dip" and the casual bubblegum lip scrub I wanted to try so so bad (it tastes quite awesome, tbh). In the end, I paid about 14€ for these things and I think they're worth it as I don't go to Lush very often *cough* 2x in like 5 years *cough*

Then we went to the Mall Of Berlin because my friend who's really tall needed a new pair of jeans and she said there was a store that had jeans that would fit her.

Oh. My. God. Guys, the Mall Of Berlin has got to be sent from heaven. There's a MAC makeup store, Gina Tricot and a cute café which I unfortunately didn't get to check out but I will when I'm back in Berlin (maybe even next week bc fieldtrip YAY) and so many other stores. So many things, so little money, ya feel :(

Anyway, everything was so christmassy (is this even a word) and I L O V E D it! I haven't been that excited for Christmas for years but this year it's different and I wish I could spend my money on decorations but nah, I had to buy christmas presents for my family and friends (watch out for the next post) because I'm just a cool human being (no really!).

But of course, not everything I bought is meant to be a present. It's more like there are some things, that are presents for myself. From me. Yay hashtag no friends.

I think we should start with what's inside that beautiful pink Lush bag. It's, as I said previously, a lip scrub and the "Granny Takes A Dip" bathbomb. Can't say anything about these things because I haven't tried them (except for the lip scrub and it tastes so gooooood and it really helps! Soft lips are such a huge yay) but I'll write a review in the near future. I also got a special size of the "Rehab"-Shampoo for free and I can't wait for testing this as well.

Onto the next one. The next things I bought basically prove how white I am. Yea, I'm talking 'bout Starbucks. I'm not a coffee-person unless it contains cocoa in or loads of sugar (which I don't like either) that's why I always end up getting a chocolate Moccha and this time, I bought a bag of Starbucks house blend coffee (it's with COCOA!) and a Christmas Starbucks Tumbler... and the casual chocolate moccha just because I can and I was freezing my b*tt off.

And yea, somewhen that day, I ended up at Primark. I hate Primark unless it's the one in Oxford but this was the one in Berlin and it was just way too crowded but nevertheless I bought PJ leggins and holiday lights. I couldn't resist buying these two things because they were too cute

Almost done now!

I bought a simple choker at Gina Tricot (yea so grunge... I used to wear them in kindergarten back in the 90s hahaha) and two f*ckin awesome lipsticks at KIKO!

I finally got a black lipstick and it's perfect. I bought a dark purple MAC lipstick some time ago and I've been looking for a black one for such a long while and I'm so happy I finally found one that wasn't even expensive and is an awesome quality.

Sorry for my weird hand and the nailpolish sucked a lot *sigh*

I'll probably dedicate a whole post to those lipsticks just because they're totally worth it haha

Last but not least, I'd like to tell you about my fave product I purchased on Monday,

It's the Batiste dry shampoo and if you're from the UK, you probably know it and tried it before. Everytime I've been to London I wanted to get one but I always forgot about it even when I was at Boots or Superdrug and it was more of an accident that I found it at a German beauty shop. It was 4€ and I dunno how much they are in the UK but I thought it'd be a reasonable price and took it with me. I tried it today and I've got to admit it's the best dry shampoo I ever had. The ones I used before always made my hair look white and this one doesn't (or I just didn't see it because my hair is a bit lighter now haha) but I'd still recommend it to you guys :)

That's it.

I've planned some Christmas posts for the next days/weeks so you better stay tuned haha :)
