Damn it!

I thought i finally had caught up to my reviews of my Goodie Boxes, apparently i was wrong..
The company decided to send them out within weeks of each other and before i had tried all the products in the November box, i got the December box. Now i have tried all of the things out and am ready to review those two boxes.




This one is called Christmas and comes in a pretty red box. On their little note of products they have a little teaser of what you get. I'm not really sure which ones are from what months, but i guess this is Novembers, so you can be ready for the Christmas month?

The first thing i saw was this little tube of Decubal body cream. A full size costs 69,95 kr which is a good price for a lotion, but i am not sure of the size you get. The thing with this sample was, it only has a little drop of lotion in there. I don't know where the rest went but i could only get that one drop out. Because of the small amount of product, it was really hard to test it. The lotion was light, not sticky and absorbs quickly into the skin, but there was not enough product to make a good opinion about it.




The next thing was two perfume samples. One for women and one for men. Maybe a good Christmas gift for the significant other? A full size of the Gucci Premiere (women) is 525 kr and a full size of Gucci Made To Measure is 410 kr. I smelled both of them and really liked them. If or when i get a special someone, if i don't get tired of the scent and if it is not discontinued i will definitively buy this one for him. The scent of this one, for me is the scent of a man. And it is so good!! The Gucci Premiere is one i have fallen in love with some time ago with another sample. They are really good and really classic scents, in my opinion.



The next is a lipstick from the brand Teeez Trend Cosmetics. My color was a deep, earthy red and it is called Rumor Club. I'm not really liking the color. Too earthy for me. It has a nice feel on the lips. This is a full size product and it is 149 kr. not a cheap lipstick, and you can feel it when you are wearing it. Not for me though. Maybe if it had been another color.


This is a sample of the Eucerin cleansing fluid. A full size is 104,95 kr. Eucerin a good brand and i really liked this. It got rid of every bit of make up, cleaned my face and toned it in one swipe. It is great! It is a clear fluid, which is kinda like water and it has no scent to it. 


This is a face mask from Amie. It is a full size product and costs about 99 kr. This is a deep cleansing mask with peppermint, white clay and lime butter. It has a tingly feel on the skin and it has a minty color. This feels so good on the skin. the tingly feeling and the scent of peppermint is something i really like. I've used it a couple of times and my skin feels really good afterwards.


The next thing was an Argan oil from Dr. Scheller. It is a full size and costs 119,95 kr. I did not like this. It was very thick and i had a horrible smell. It was lemony and i do not like it. It was thick and sticky on my skin. So uncomfortable. It was definitely a miss!


This was a product i looked forward to trying. I have really fine hair that has difficulty doing anything other than hanging down my face. This is a tester or travel size and a full size is 59,95 kr, which is not that bad. Maybe i used it wrong or else it just didn't do it for me. It gave me no volume what so ever..






The last thing was this candy. A normal jar of these is 79 kr. This is white chocolate with gold dust on the outside and on the inside there was a cube of licorice. No.. Just no.. I don't like chocolate and licorice and i don't like white chocolate..



That was all. It was pretty much a miss for me this time around. This box was worth 368 kr without the samples. Not that happy about this one, but there was some winners in this box!




 Here's my first look into the Statement box. This should be the one for New Yeas and give you all kinds of things you could use on the night.


First thing i grabbed was the false lashes. I love false lashes, i just don't get to use them that often. I feel like the are weird on my eyes and these seem really dramatic. I want to try them. Maybe i need to trim them? No, i did not wear these, because i didn't want to run around having to fix the lashes and i do really have good lashes anyways, so it is not like i need them. They look pretty though! These cost 69 kr




The next thing was this nail polish from Appeal4. The color is called Black Lily and it looks amazing. It is a black polish with green specs of glitter and i did wear this on new years. The polish held up pretty well on my nails and longer than most polishes i own. Before new years i tried Gellack or Shellack in a french design and i will write a post on it later. This is really beautiful! This is 79 kr, which isn't really expensive for a nail polish.




This is an eyeshadow from Gosh in the color Black. It is a black with silver glitters in it. It can be used both wet and dry and i have only tried it dry. When it is dry, you can't really see the glitter, so maybe i should have tried it wet? It costs 59,95 kr and it's an okay prize.




Next, we have a lip gloss, also from Gosh. This is in a purple color and has the number 102, but no name. As you can see it was one of those light up glosses with a mirror on the side. The color was fine on my lips, but i felt like it was very sticky. Not that pleasant to have on the lips. This is 89,95 kr and i would not buy one in another color because of the consistency.


This is Derma Eco's cleansing wipes. They contain to perfume and are allergy tested. My problem with this is, it does not remove make up. I think it is supposed to work like a toner-like wipe, because it does not remove anything without an excessive amount of rubbing on the face and eyes. These are 49,95 and for that prize i could get my beloved Garnier wipes, which i would much rather buy.




I found this thing kinda weird to put in a box of beauty items, but i guess a fresh breath is a beauty accessory? These are Tic Tacs and have strawberry flavor and the lighter ones are sweet while the darker ones are sour. At the first try i didn't really like them. Now, i think they are okay, but they do not work like a gum or normal Tic Tac does. I would rather have a minty breath than a strawberry one. They are 16,95 kr.


The last thing is this perfume sample from Salvador Dalí called "Dalí Wild". This has jasmine, magnolia, mahogany and citrus fruits and this was just not for me. I don't know what is is about it, the scent was just not one i liked that much. It is light and feminine though. A full size of this costs 255 kr, which is pretty cheap for a perfume.


This box had a value of 365 kr without the sample and that is pretty good. Sadly there was a few duds. I liked this better than the Christmas box though! I look forward to my next box to see what they have come up with now!

Vacation and other stuff!

I am very much aware of the fact that i haven't been blogging.
The thing is.. I just haven't had the time..
Yes I've been on vacation and yes i could probably have blogged there, but i didn't. I just didn't feel like sitting in front a computer all night for a blog post.

I can tell you what i have been doing, if you want me to?
I graduated from school and the week after that, there was a lot of parties and fun. Then i came down, where i am now, to work for a little week and after that i went to Langelandsfestivalen. It was great, even though the music didn't really come first. There was quite a few artist i wanted to see, but didn't because of the weather. Not because it was raining or too cold, but because it was too hot to stand in the sun and when your energy have been drained all day by the sun, one of the last things you want to do is standing up for an hour or two. I was also sick for two days and there my energy was even more drained. I slept the whole day, didn't really eat and only moved outside my tent if i had to go to the toilet. Everyone at my camp was really nice and helpful, asking if i wanted something to eat or if i wanted to lay outside in the shade, they were taking really good care of me.
When we got home, which was one long trip!, I spend the night at Simon's and the next day was my birthday. So at night my grandparents and I drove in to my sisters apartment and ate dinner and the next day, we were off to Spain. We spend almost two weeks in Barcelona going around the city and watching everything that had to be watched. I think i'm done with Barcelona for a while.. unless it is on a shopping vacation and in that case, i need to make some more money!
After we got home, i had about 2 days before i was going to Lolland, more precisely, Nysted, to work for my godmother. That was about a month ago and I've been every now and again taking the train back and forth if i had to do anything at home, like a party or a birthday or something like that.

Since my last blog, my addiction has moved from The Vampire Diaries to Two Broke Girls. I'm actually waiting for a new season on that, on Awkward. and on Pretty Little Liars, so maybe i should get back to watching The Vampire Diaries? I mean, I am only 2 seasons in that and I know for a fact that there is a lot more! I've also come across a problem i haven't really had before. I don't have enough internet on my iphone. 2GB is enough when you are going to facebook and so on, using your 3G like that, but for watching series and films on youtube, it is definitively not enough. Maybe it's because it's the only thing I've got to watch down here. There is no working TV, no Wifi and almost no signal.. Great.. so for the last two month i have bought 6 and 10 extra GB just because i ran out. It's really not that expensive, but 2GB on 40 days is not enough for me anymore..

I am actually at work right now, but there is no one on the streets and therefore no customers.. Really boring! Because when there is no customers, we have to clean... and I'm not a fan of cleaning.. So right now i am waiting on my godmother to get back from a meeting so i can get home to little Ganløse and have some real fun!
