Collective HAUL

Hello Muggles,

as my university time began and I got some more money to spend then before I took a little too much advantage of it and got myself some tiny treats. 


The first things I got are from a German drugstore called "Rossmann" and it actually was my first time buying something there because there is no store in my hometown. Last week I had the pleasure of waiting for more than 2 hours for my next uni-course, so I went shopping... bad, bad thing if you knew that there are going to be 2 hours of waiting every week for me. :'D

I got some Cleansing Wipes by lilibe, which is Rossmann's own-label. There's not much to say about these ones. Mine are almost gone, so I had to get a new packet anyway.
Next there is a hair treatment from GLISS KUR and on the packaging it promises to make your brittle hair silky. I used it twice already and there's still a lot of product in it. I have to mention the scent because it's amaaaazing - it smells delicious
I love Cherry Coke but I usually only drink one bottle per year because I'm more of a water and juice drinker and I don't want to support Coca Cola in general BUT I had to get the Cherry Coke Lip Smacker. I already feel kind of bad about it but it's so yummy. :D It really smells and tastes like Cherry Coke and it makes your lips slightly more read, which I like. :)
Last but not least beauty-wise is a nail polish by Catrice in the colour C02 Holly Rose Wood. If you knew me, you would call me crazy for buying a nail polish when I actually NEVER do my nails... and I can only agree with you. xD I applied it one time though...



The colour is BEAUTIFUL, I think. It's a mixture of red and pink, which is absolutely my favourite colour and this is why I will use this nail polish anyways... not on my nails though. :'D I already painted the little zipper-things on my bag-pack with it and it looks lovely. :D


Here goes the H&M section. :) I got some bargains.
First, there are those ultra cool skeleton gloves. I already got one pair about 6 years ago and I loved them so much; when I went shopping with my boyfriend I saw them at the counter and did the puppy eye look, which I usually never do, and so my boyfriend got them for me. :)
Rather boring is another pair of black skinny jeans - it's just a wardrobe must-have for me and they were only 9,95 €.
Last but not least there is a floral skater dress. Just THE autumn clothe essential... NOT! xD I had to buy it because I think it's very pretty and it was only 4,95 €, so who would have said no? :')


The last thing I got are these winter-boots, which are my first boots ever to be honest. When winter slowly came closer I just always went for Skate-High-Vans in the past but this time I wanted boots and I found this pair on ebay. I was going to order some UGG-Boots but the original ones are faaaar too expensive for me and when looking for a cheaper pair I stumbled about the ones I bought in the end. As you can see they have this typical winter pattern (, which I consider as very pretty :)) and bobbles. Because of the super soft and thick lining they are very warm and perfect for the colder days that I would like to cross out of the calendar. ;)
What else is there to say? Oh yeah, they have a heel! It's exactly 2 cm and too much for me. xD No, just kidding - it is strange because I feel like I'm huuuge, even though I'm just 2 cm's taller.^^ 
I already used them, so they look to that effect. I actually don't know how and why people always make their shoes look brand-new but mine always look pretty worn after the first day. xD


By the way: During photo-sessions in my floor little Baylie-Baby wanted to say "Hello Muggles" as well. :) This is actually the first picture EVER I took of her looking into the camera. She usually avoids this. :D


Okay, that's it for today. I hope you enjoyed it.

Leave a comment if you have anything to say. :D

Lots of love and see you next time,

My first Beauty-Box (PINK BOX)

Hello Muggles,

I read so many posts about several beauty boxes and watched way too many Youtube videos of people unpacking them, so after I got my first salary (after starting to work in a tutoring center - so you know that it's not that much, if you ever worked there^^) I decided to order my first beauty box ever.

I know that Glossybox is something you know in many countries and I actually wanted this one as well but after seeing many people being disappointed I chose a German alternative: The Pink Box. :)


Just to give you some facts: I paid 12,95 € (about 10 British Pounds) and got five full size products, one sample and one magazine.  
I think, as far as this goes, that's pretty good! :)


The Pink Box looks simliar to other beauty boxes. You got the box itself, the products are wrapped in this little paper and bow and there is a card, which tells you everything about the things you got. The magazine and one of the full size products weren't in the actual box but in the bigger parcel.


Here are the products I got:

FA Luxurious Moments Shower Gel (Full size -> 250ml / 1,49 €)
FA Luxurious Moments Deodorant (Full size -> 150ml / 1,49 €)
GLISS KUR Marrakesh Oil & Coconut 1-Minute Intensive Deep Conditioner (Full size -> 200ml / 3,99 €)
GLISS KUR Marrakesh Oil & Coconut Shampoo (Sample of 50ml -> 250ml / 2,79 €)
CATHERINE nail file "Pretty in Pink" (Full size -> 3,00 €)
E.l.f. Plumping Lip Glaze (Full size -> 1,8g / 1,79€)
Petra Magazine (2,60€)

Quite a decent amount of products right? After paying 12,95 € I got things worth about 15 €, which is fine. :)


Until now I just tested the e.l.f. Lip Glaze, which is in deed the first lip gloss I used for at least 7 years, and I quite like it. I love the very creamy and thick consistency and the taste of peppermint is another plus point. The colour is okay - I wouldn't have chosen it though but I guess this is the nice part of a beauty box.

Okay, if you would like me to write a review about any of these products (except for the nail file because I really won't use this at all :'D) let me know in the comment section!

Do you know the Pink Box? Or are you subscribed to any other beauty boxes?

See you next time,
Hermione
