|Action| We held the Hen's Party for my bestest friend and it was such a blast. We had the whle weekend planned and it started right with nicest sunshine & mild weather, a spontaneous Big Band Intermezzo on the streets for her & like one of the utmost fun nights ever. I was so scared beforehand because although I carefully planned: There was so much witch was far from perfect (at least from what I had envisioned). But it summed up to just the perfect picture! <3
|Food| Salads, veggies and rice, apples & soy jogurt

|Drink| White wine, coffee, orange juice, cider, water
|Thought| I had the utmost perfect flat and then they just raise the rent up to 1/3 or the origin - WTF?! Damn it!
|Made me smile| Seeing my best friend & soon-married best friend so happy
|Made me go hmmm| Argh, I wanted this flat so badly!
|Wished for| The Flat!!! Direction - what is right?!?
|Best Buy| The Hen's Party - all in

Empties # 2 ~ And it goes on and on and on

Hej All,

once started I am totally in the mood of getting things out of the way (withouth just wasting product) but with really using things and more important: using things up instead of starting a million things.

So, now let's jump quite into it!

Balea cosmetic tissues + Baby wipes + cottons pads
Stables - nothing more to add here. Already repurchased

Soap & Glory The Fab Pore
Love the stuff - use it 1-2 times a week. Already repurchased!

Kneipp Entspannung Pur - Bathing Oil
Ok, but I don't fuss about that.

ISANA Nail polish remover
Ok. Repurchased as it was on offer.

Jovan musc oil deodorant spray
Repurchased. My all-time favourite scent - I also have the EdT :-)

Soap & Glory Hand Food
Repurchased and beloved. The scent makes me feel like a pink frosted cupcake...heaven!

Dontodent Mouth wash (2x)
I love the refreshment & have one at work to just take a short mouthwash when I had a lot of meetings with loads of coffee.

SPA Green soap 
Nice one but I don't fuss about my hand washing soap.

Sante Dental Med Vitamin B12 toothpaste
LOVE. For me as a vegan a beloved product as it does the teeth cleaning job + gets my Vitamin B12 tanks refilled :-)
A new stable for me.

lavera grapes haircair mask
No opinion on that. Think there was really no difference with my hair.

Balea nature shaving cream
Ok, good to avoid any irritation. Repurchased.

Nivea pearl&beauty deo
Happy to have finished this. Was really no good.

Primark hand wipes (hand sanitizer)
Ok, but no fuss here as well.

bioderma créaline H2O Solution Micellaire
Love it! Repurchased!

Soap & Glory Make Yourself Youthful (Serum)
Repurchased - I love th S&G range and it becomes more and more clear that I switch to their products step by step...

The Body Shop Vanilla Bliss Hand Cream
Happy to have finished this: No remarkable moisturizing effect but a nice smell. I have better ones on stock (Soap & Glory Hand Food or Kiehl's Hand salve)

Kiehl's Ultra Facial Oil Free Toner
Brilliant product. Repurchased and already in use.

Balea MakeUp Remover (waterproof)
No remarkable effect. Truth is, I am happy to get this out of my bathroom.

Colgate Sensation white toothpaste
I used this one in the mornings and the Santé B12 one in the evenings and I am quite happy with the results. Repurchased and in use as mentioned.



Burt's Bees Hibicus Tinted Lip Balm
Liked this one a lot but due to my vegan lifestyle I will not repurchase this as there is obviously honey involved.

L'oréal Paris EverPure Shampoo
Liked this one but wil not repurchase I guess.

Maybelline The colossal volume express
Ok, but I was not too impressed. I have better ones in use right now.

Alverde Eye brow designer in 01 blond
Repurchased. Love this as it is the perfect colour for my brows (I also have the powder & wax duo thing. Also quite nice!).

essence studio nails better than gel nails top sealer
Trusted little helper in my bath.

IsaDora Dynamic Lash Growth Serum
The WORST ever! I hated it and I can't recommend it to anyone unless you would like to loose some eyelashes, have a burning on the eye/lid ... hideous!

Kiehl's Midnight Recovery Concentrate
AWESOME!I have another small sample size bottle which is already in use!

|Food| Too much crap to be honest. Don't feel to good (as my body is easily reacting too crap food ). But it is my own fault.

|Drink| Ginger tea, coffee, water, apple juice
|Thought| I am sometimes a bit of a slow thinker... gosh, stupid me!
|Made me smile| People around me who expressed their joy about me being around them again. And we are not even that close.

Sunday*Brunch

I was eating basically all 2 hours...Thanks to a beloved friend who cooked a lot of fantastic things but also London is so rich on vegan & gluten-free friendly food (Whole Foods, Holland & Barret to name just a few)
<3
|Drink|Cider, coffee, tea & water
|Thought| I want to settle down in London & get fat because of the incredible food all around!!!
|Made me smile| That my friend was taking care about me like that. The warm welcome after all the time, the nice people around, the good conversations, the beauty of London, the warmth of the people, the Tube, the food & my newly blooming addiction to bake the perfect cookies!
|Made me go hmmm| Flying back....
|Wished for| Living in Londond - possibilities anybody?
