We are here again. I left new products to accumulate for too long again and now I have a massive post to write again. These posts actually make me think how much money I spend on these kinds of things and I'm satisfied with the fact that I don't buy useless crap anymore like I sometimes used to. Now I don't even go to drugstores anymore and the new products don't really interest me anymore. Sometimes bloggers made such good posts that I had a feeling I needed something but now I really trust two Slovenian beauty bloggers and I mostly just buy the product if I really like it and if they recommended it. You probably know who they are but if you don't, you should check out Mateja and Petra.
Oriflame Magnetista Eau de Parfum is a new fragrance from Oriflame. The bottle is nothing special but it still looks nice. It's purple with a gold cap. The regular price for Magnetista is 39,99€, currently, it's on sale for 27,99€.
I love Christmas and everything that goes with it. I don't really cook but I like baking, especially this time of the year. Lots of times I do stuff like these brownies but usually, they don't turn out that great. This time I'm actually proud of what I did and I wanted to share it here on my blog.
Every year I search for a perfect planner that I would actually enjoy using and this year I have (hopefully) found one. I had a few planners before but none really worked out for a longer period of time. Mostly because of the weekly spread, most planners have small spaces for days. What especially bugged me is, that some planners have Saturday and Sunday in one column or generally such a small place and I am a person that does the most on the weekends. I went back to uni and I have a student job, I also manage a couple of social media pages, so I do all my assignments, blog work, house stuff, etc. on a Sunday (and Saturday if I'm not working), so my to-do lists for the weekend are long (endless actually) and I need the space to write them all down. I also need space to write to-do lists or reminders that I'm not sure on which day I will do them but I want to do them in that week. This year I got a chance to test the Beyoutiful Planner that ticks off pretty much all of the boxes for me.
I already posted Part 1 of my declutter here. In part 1 there were some eye and brow products, in this Part 2 you will see lip products. Most of them I actually really like, that's why I kept some of them for years but the shades are just not for me.
Bourjois Twist Up The Volume Mascara comes in a black packaging that is wider at the top. It has gold writing, so it looks quite elegant despite the odd shape of the tube. I think there are two or three different versions of the Twist Up The Volume mascara, I got the Ultra Black one and I'm pretty sure this is a newer version. You can get it here from Notino. The tube contains 8ml of product and on Notino it costs 8,51€ but I'm pretty sure it's well over 10€ at DM or Müller.
Recently, I cleaned out my beauty stash. I got rid of some products that I had for years but I didn't use and also some that are not that old. There was quite a lot of products, so I thought, why not do a declutter post and do some quick reviews of the products with explanations why I choose to give them away. I already have two similar posts from two years ago here and here.
Catrice Glowing + Multicolour Blush Box comes in a cute square packaging with a window on top. The packaging does feel a bit cheap, mine already broke and it doesn't close well anymore. It's probably not good to take traveling. You get 5,5g of product for 4,39€.
There are two shades available, I got the shade called 020 It's Wine O'Clock. By this one, there are some different rose shades, when mixed, you get a gorgeous muted mauve shade, perfect for the upcoming months.
On top, you have a nice pattern. The texture is soft and buttery. It is really pigmented, it doesn't show much on the brush but you have to have a light hand because it can really quickly be too much. It blends well and it looks glowy on the cheeks. It lasts well, it's still on the cheeks at the end of the day.
This is one of the products that I love to use lately. It's a perfect mauve pink shade and it looks so nice and healthy on my cheeks. I would definitely recommend it.
Thank you for reading!
*Product was sent to me
Catrice Clean ID Eyeshadow Palette comes in a small cardboard packaging. The packaging doesn't have a magnet closing, there was a band that should keep the palette together but it broke after two or three uses. Because of the cardboard, the palette is lightweight, it's also slim and small, so it would be great to travel with, just use another band. In the palette, you get 6g of product and it costs around 5€.
I already talked about these nail polishes in my last new in post but they deserve a separate post. I think OnColour line from Oriflame is new and there are a lot of colourful products included, some lipsticks, eyeliners, mascara and nail polishes.
I'm reviewing an Essence trend edition again, this time it's Essence x PacMan. I'm not sure how long it will be available in Slovenia, it says it was available from mid-August but I think I saw it in stores later. DM and some drugstores even get those collections much later than Müller and you can sometimes even get them months after the release date. In the collection you can get an eyeshadow palette, a blush palette, face brush, two highlighters, a lip balm, and an eye mask. Lovely Natalija from Dominur sent me three products to review, eyeshadow palette, blush palette, and an eye mask.
Finally a new haul of beauty products. I always think before to do them but then life happens and I accumulate so many products that I don't want to spend the entire day photographing them. I thought of not doing these posts anymore but I know I love reading them on other blogs. Also, some products never get a separate post and since I do favourites very rarely, some of them don't even get a mention and I love some. So, this is still a way to do smaller reviews for some products that maybe wouldn't get a chance otherwise.
I don't keep up with Essence lipliners, it seems they have a new line every half a year and they're constantly discontinuing old ones. I own one from the Soft Contouring line but I'm not really sure if it's available anymore. The Draw The Line range is also being discontinued, so I got this lipliner for around 70 cents.
This post is another collaboration with Notino. I made a wishlist with some products that I wanted to try for a while. I also included some more luxury items, because why not. Some of the products have been on my wishlist for a long time, like the L'Oreal Paradise Mascara and Vichy Minéral 89 but some are newer releases like Maybelline Super Stay Ink Crayon and Nivea Deomilk.
Another new Empties post. I said in my last one that in the next will be only makeup products but I decided to get rid of a lot more makeup, so hopefully, I will have time to do a proper makeup declutter post in the future. In this post you will find skincare and hair care again, some of the products I enjoyed using but some were meh.
Gold Effect Nail Polish is a new nail polish line that has joined the Catrice brand in the autumn/winter update. It comes in their standard glass bottle but the cap is metallic gold. You get 10,5ml for around 3-4€. I really like Catrice's nail polishes, I have a review on some here, I also loved the Brown Collection one from last year. The brush is the same as by all of them, thick and round-cut, easy to work with.
I had these body butters on my wishlist for a long time. I was seeing them so much on Instagram but I always resisted but then Anja posted a story and I ordered them straight away.
The One Colour Stylist Ultimate Lipsticks from Oriflame come in a black plastic packaging that looks and feels a bit cheap. Compared to Giordani Gold Master Creating Lipstick these feel a lot more childish. You can't even see the shade from outside of the lipstick, it just has a name on the bottom of it but there is no colour. The lid closes and holds well. In the tube, you get 4g of product and each costs 11,90€. I normally like Oriflame's lipsticks, like their Gordani Gold and the Colour Obsession one.
A few weeks ago Notino contacted me and sent me a welcome package full of products to test and review. I didn't try any of the products before, for some I haven't even heard of yet but now I tested them all and I can report how they perform on me.
I finally bought myself a proper Korean sunscreen for my face. I was never using sunscreen as much as I should so I thought I would try a Korean one because everybody raves how lightweight they are on the skin. I was searching which one to get, there is a lot of choices and at the end, I went with this one from A'Pieu. Now, that I have been using it all summer, I can finally review it properly.
I finally finished this post, I have been preparing it for months, literally. I noticed some of the shades are leaving the stores in the next few weeks and some new are coming but I don't know which ones. I reviewed the This is Me collection and some new products that came out at the start of summer, like the new Lash Princess Waterproof Mascara.
I think this mascara was added to Essence's assortment in their autumn/winter update last year but I only started to test it a couple of months ago. I had it in my drawer and I never tried it because I had so many others to test but then I saw a couple rave reviews, so I decided to give it a try.
I finally have some time off, so I decided to dedicate a whole post to this blogiversary, like last year. I gathered together some of the most read posts this year and also some that I liked.
Another empties, this time only skincare and haircare, the next time there will be only makeup products. You can see more Empties posts here.
I finally gave in and bought the famous Radiance Reveal Concealer from Bourjois. I have heard only good things about it and I needed to try it. Radiance Reveal Concealer comes in a square packaging that is the same as by their Rouge Edition Velvet Lipsticks and Sation Edition Eyeshadows. I actually really like that these are all the same. The packaging contains 7,8ml of product and it costs around 9€. For example, Essence and Catrice concealers contain 5ml for around 3,5-4,5€, so it's not that expensive for the amount you get.
I received a few packages from Avon in spring and summer, so I decided to throw them all together in a blog post. These summer products are mostly new launches if I'm not mistaken and I have already found some favourites.
Butters Vanilla, Strawberry and Antiage Butter
I had these on my WL for so long, I was always seeing them on Instagram but I always resisted the temptation to buy them. Then one day Anja shared something about them on IG Stories and I had to order them. Butters are Slovenian products and it seems everyone is obsessed with them and I joined the group. They have lots of different scents and versions of the butter but I heard the vanilla and strawberry are two of the softest and most spreadable ones. I still have a small amount of my Yanumi vanilla shea butter that I still love and use, but the scent is nothing compared to these ones. The vanilla one smells like vanilla sugar or marshmallow and the other one like strawberry ice cream. My mom got herself an anti-age version but I don't like the scent of it as much.

I found this peel off nail polish from Catrice on sale, so I guess Catrice is discontinuing it. I love the gold version 03 When in Doubt, Just Add Glitter and it's just genius that the glitter polish can be peeled off the nail and it's not taking ages.
I was eyeing this highlighter when it came out but I didn't buy it because I didn't really need it and a few weeks later Natalija from Dominur kindly sent it to me.
Avon Pro Colour in 60 Seconds Nail Enamel comes in a standard Avon nail polish bottle. In it, you get 10ml of product and it costs 5,90€ but it's often on offer for less. Avon says that this Pro Colour line is 3in1, a base, a colour and a top coat. It also says that it should be dry in 60 seconds, be opaque in one coat and be longlasting.
I have heard so much about this mascara but because I never tried any Max Factor mascaras, I didn't give attention to this one either. A couple of weeks ago, I got it in the mail and now I have to say that this is one of the best mascaras in terms of the effect it gives that I have tried and I'm glad that I had a chance to test it. But there is also a downside.
Oriflame already had a bb cream in their collection, so I'm not sure if this is a new formula or just a new design. I have heard a lot of good reviews on the bb cream, so I started testing it as soon as it arrived in my mailbox.
Balea Creme Dusche Aprikose & Orchidee
Balea shower gels are one of my favourites, they have a nice creamy consistency, they are not too liquidy. I love their summer scent, especially the orange and mandarin ones. Plus, they are cheap, under 1€. This one is no exception, it smells divine.

Balea Duschöl
I needed something good for my dry skin and I chose this one. At first, I wanted Nivea but the ingredients were very similar. I don't know anything about that actually but when I compared the labels, they were close, only the Nivea one was two times the price of the Balea. I know it's a shower oil but this is so liquidy that it just gets through fingers. I only tried it a couple of times but and for now, I didn't notice a big difference with my skin.

Balea Aqua Feuchtigkeits Serum
This serum has been my favourite for years, I always repurchase it. I use it every day in my night skincare routine. It has a lightweight formula that sinks into the skin fast and after I always use a cream. I talked about the serum a lot on my blog in these posts.
Borotalco Active Citrus and Lime Fresh & Sea Salts Fresh
I normally use the stick form of Borotalco and I love it. It works great through the entire day and it has a very nice and subtle powdery scent. DM had 1+1 offer on Borotalco spray deodorants and I had to try some new ones. I chose the Sea Salts Fresh that has quite a subtle scent and Citrus and Lime Fresh, which is very strong. You will definitely smell them half a day in the room you applied them in, that's why I prefer using stick deodorants. In terms of how they work, they are both amazing. I don't smell through the day and I noticed that with these two I don't sweat so much. I just love Borotalco, it never fails me.

L'Oreal Elvital Öl Magique Shampoo
Again, a repurchase. I love this shampoo, it's the best that I have tried for my hair. I usually use a heavy mask on my hair before I wash it so I wash my hair twice. For the first shampoo, I use whatever I or anyone else has in the shower and for the second shampoo, I use this L'Oreal one. Even on its own, I find it cleanses the hair well, but it's not super effective at that, so from time to time, I would still use a more cleansing shampoo. But it manages to nourish my hair a bit, I even tried going without a conditioner a couple of times and I didn't notice a huge difference.

Balea Schönheitsgeheimnisse Stärkende Spülung Manuka Honig
I used up the coconut version one from the same line and I did like it, so I bought another version, this time with manuka honey. I think this one is new. I like the scent better than by the previous one. The texture feels creamy and feels a bit thicker. I find it nourishes my hair well or even better than the coconut one. Definitely, a thumbs up, I like it. Balea makes better and better products every year.

Balea Erfrisschendes Waschgel
Another favourite that I repurchased 20 or more times probably and have talked a lot on my blog about it. It has a pH 5.5 and it's so cheap, the cheapest of my products but one of the bests. It cleans the skin well, I usually use it in the morning and at night as the second cleanser and I really recommend it.

Balea Avocado & Honig Tuchmaske
Of course, I bought it mostly because of the packaging but I ended up really liking it. The sheet is soaking, absolutely soaking wet, it was to big for my face but it didn't slip around. The scent is very strong, I don't know why but I only smell a strange scent of old white wine that actually bothered me. I could smell it the whole time that I had the sheet on my face. When I put the sheet on, it felt really refreshing and cooling. After I removed it, the sheet was still soaking wet, I could actually still squeeze the product out. My skin looked moisturized, glowy and also brighter. I didn't use a cream after and I was so surprised in the morning when my skin was still nourished and almost a bit oily, which it never is when I woke up. The only thing bothering me, is the scent, but I do like the mask, so I already bought three more.

Afrodita Why Mask Hydra Boost Energy
Another new great discovery. A couple of weeks ago my skin was very dry and dull looking and I really started to search for some good face masks. This one achieved my expectations, I already repurchased it. It has a white creamy gel consistency that moisturizes my face well. I usually use this one when I have less time since it's easier to use as sheet masks. I leave it on for 15 minutes or if I have time, even for half an hour or more and my skin did get better.

There wasn't a product that I wouldn't like in this post. A lot of them are repurchases but the new ones also impressed me a lot. Thank you for reading!
Avon True Nutra Effects Hydration Boosting Sheet Mask and Radiance Boosting Sheet Mask
My skin has been so dry lately, so I'm doing everything to keep it nourished. I love using sheet masks, they mostly give great results. These two are new from Avon and they are high on my WL.

I liked this Sun Sand & Golden Rainbows collection from Essence so much that I even did a preview on my blog. It just screams summer and hot weather. If I'm honest, I wanted the whole collection but I settled on two things, the bronzer and the brush. The golden highlighter was on top of the wl too but once I saw it, I decided that I have enough highlighters and I don't need another similar one.
A'Pieu Pure Block Natural Daily Sun Cream SPF45/PA+++
I really needed a new sunscreen and I wanted something good to go under my makeup. I was deciding between a few Asian sunscreens but at the end, I ordered this A'Pieu one and I hope it's okay. I haven't tried it yet but I've heard really good reviews. I also got a tester of Etude House UV Double Cut Fresh Sun Gel SPF50+/PA++++ that I will also try.
The Body Shop Tea Tree Skin Clearing Mattifying Toner
I used Lush's Tea Tree Water Toner and a few people recommended me to try this one from The Body Shop. This one is actually cheaper but I do pour the toner into the Lush's packaging because it has a spray cap and I feel that I don't use as much product. This one has a stronger scent and I heard it's supposed to be better, but for now, I didn't notice a difference on my skin.

The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil
I mostly bought this oil for my brother because he has some acne. He applies it on some bigger acne and it does help to dry them down. He has been using tea tree products and there was a major difference in his skin. I don't get pimples (except those tiny ones on my forehead) but one-day one did start to form on my cheek, I have no idea why and it did get rid of it. I would say this is a very good product to have for these types of occasions.

Essence Shine Last & Go! Gel Nail Polish 04 Millennial Pink and 16 Feme Fatal
I already have a review with swatches for these two shades. I love the formula, it lasts very long on my nails.
Bourjois Radiance Reveal Concealer 01 Ivory
I have tried the concealer a couple of times and I like it. It is a lightweight formula that's not very pigmented so it doesn't cover a lot. It does give a nice brightening effect and looks nice under the eyes. I also feel it doesn't look as dry as some of my other concealers. For now, I usually go for a higher coverage concealer because I need the coverage but I need to test this one better.

Catrice Kaviar Gauche LE Touch Up Brush
I didn't intend to buy this brush but then someone on Instagram mentioned that it's great quality, so I picked it up to have in my bag. I don't usually carry anything other than a lipstick/lip gloss in my bag but I thought that maybe it would be nice to have in summer to touch up. The bristles are super soft and the quality is great but the packaging is a bit weird. It doesn't stay closed. The lid stays on but the part that you push down for the brush to come out keeps sliding and doesn't stay in place.

Max Factor 2000 Calorie Mascara*
This mascara impressed me, you can layer it a lot and it won't stick your lashes together. It doesn't feel heavy on the lashes, it makes them black, defined, gives a bit of volume. I like it. I only have one problem sometimes, every now and then it smudges a little bit, so I'm not sure if this would be a mascara for summer.

Max Factor Creme Puff Pressed Powder 05 Translucent*
I tried this powder once and it's nice. I really like the scent, at first I thought it's sunscreen, but every time I smell it, it smells more like old school men's aftershave mixed with sunscreen.

Max Factor Color Elixir Lipstick 730 Flushed Fuchsia*
This was such a big and wonderful surprise. The lipstick has my name engraved on the cap and it was just the loveliest thing from the brand to do this for us bloggers. I got the shade Flushed Fuchsia and it's a coral pink shade but the finish is very frosty which I'm not a fan of, maybe I should try it as a lipstick topper but we will see. I actually went to the store to see if any other shade would be more suitable for me and they all looked frosty, except one or two shades, if I saw right, but I need to check one more time.

Avon Rare Flowers Night Orchid Eau de Parfum*
Avon sent us another perfume but this one is not my favourite. It's very strong, I tried it in my room and I could smell it for the whole day. I feel it's too strong for me, I get migraines and don't wear so much perfume anymore. When I haven't had a migraine for a while, then I start to use it more but once I get it again, I'm actually scared of using it. If you get migraines, you know what I'm talking about. I always use one spritz anyway and since this one is so strong I think I will give it away.

Avon Luminous Blush Rose*
This is such a gorgeous shade, a pretty mauve that looks good on any skin. I tried it a couple of times and it looks nice, I find it similar to my favourite shade ever from Trend It Up. The pigmentation is great and it seems to be longlasting.

Avon Golden Mushroom Sleep Mask*
Avon has some k-beauty products now. I was so surprised, I didn't know they were doing this. I haven't tried this mask yet. I'm trying a new face cream and I didn't want this to mess up my opinion. But I will test it soon.
Avon Jelly Kiss Lip Mask*
I haven't tried this one either, I'm kind of saving it.
Avon Cica Facial Sheet Mask*
The sheet fitted my face okay, it stuck well to my face and didn't it slide around. There was a lot of essence and the sheet was very soaked. It felt cooling on the skin, it also had a strong scent. I left it on for half an hour and even then the sheet was still soaking wet. The remaining essence sank into the skin quickly and left my skin a bit brighter but I didn't notice anything special.

Oriflame Colour Stylist Ultimate Lipstick Melted Caramel and So Blackberry*
I'm not sure how new these lipsticks are but Oriflame had a wheel in their catalogue to explain that every skin undertone has a few lipstick shades that should match that skin tone. I got sent two shades for my warm undertone and I have to say I really like them. The nude shade is lighter than my lips and I don't normally wear shades like that because they look weird on me but this one doesn't. The formula is creamy and comfortable but they don't seem to last long which is acceptable for a creamy formula.

Oriflame Love Nature Pampering Sesame Oil and Magnolia Shower Cream and Body Lotion*
This was Oriflame's Mother's Day gift for my mom, which totally surprised me and my mom. My mom doesn't use a lot of scented stuff because she has very sensitive skin, so most of the time these will probably be used by me. The scent is very floral and quite strong.

Avon Naturals Pink Grapefruit & Apricot Body Scrub*
Avon Senses Sunkissed Moments Pink Grapefruit & Apricot Moisturizing Shower Gel*
Both of these smell so amazing, like summer and fruits, just amazing. The body scrub is okay, it reminds me of Balea's, not too harsh, but it still has enough particles to exfoliate the skin. The shower gel is great, like all Avon's shower gels. I like the scent so much that I will probably order some products myself.
Avon Vitamin C Radiance Maximizing Serum*
I haven't tried this one yet but I have heard that it contains a lot of alcohol. We will see how it works, once I start to test it.

Oriflame A-Z BB Cream Natural
I have heard so many good things about Oriflame's bb creams. If I'm not mistaken, this is a new version or new packaging, I'm not sure. I have been testing it and I like it. It is lightweight, it has some coverage and it looks natural on the skin but it's probably not for oily skin. I will do a separate review on it.

Balea Calm Down Duschpeeling
I purchased a lot of these Balea peelings, every time in different scent/limited edition. This scent is perfect for me, it's a warm vanilla scent with orange hints. It's also not too sweet.
Thank you for reading!
