November 2013 Favourites .
I haven't been writing about monthly favourites for the past months as there wasn't any new things that wowed me off my feet. Sure there were a few new things that I liked but they weren't in that "I-will-die-if-I-can't-have-you" place.
However, in November, I have discovered a few new things to call my favourites. So let's get started!
Daiso fuzzy socks
They kept my feet warm at night in the freezing (at least for me) Japan. These are so nice and soft, best of all, they cost only $2!
Marks & Spencer Pomegranate Shower Gel
This smells so good! I like that the scent is not too overpowering, not too in your face. This lathers up well and is easy to wash off. And it doesn't leave a soapy after feel. I find that there are some shower gels that leaves a flim behind or something... like you have not washed all the suds off... This one doesn't.
Clarins Extra-Firming Lip & Contour Balm
My new favourite lip balm! My savior for dry lips! Due to the cold winds in Japan and lack of reapplying a lip balm often during the day, my lips almost cracked at one point, I applied a layer of this and the next morning my lips were back to normal.
Benefit Juicy Coral Lip Shine
I got this as part of a kit called The New Annie Collection which I bought last year. It is pigmented, smells and taste good. It feels comfortable on the lips, not too sticky and does not emphasis lip lines.
Clarins Skin Beauty Concentrate
This is a rediscovery of an old favourite. It helps to calm my skin down, soothing it. My skin was somewhat irritated around the eye and upper cheeks and this really helped to bring my skin back to normal. Although it is an oil, it absorbs quickly without any sticky or oily feel. A little goes a long way, I use just one pump, warm it between my palms and press it into my skin after toning, then finish off with a light moisturiser,
Bath and Body Works Lavender Chamomile Body Wash & Foam Bath
This smells so very wonderful, so soothing and sleep inducing. As a foam bath, it produces decent amount of bubbles to cover the top of the bath, but the bubbles are not as luxe and dense like LUSH's.. A good choice for after a long, tiring day.
Furterer Carthame Gentle Hydro-Nutritive Mask
It leaves my hair feeling super super soft, silky and shiny!! The best thing is I did not have to leave it on for a long time to see the effect! I am going to get the full sized once I have finished my other hair masks!
Thanks for reading! Bye!!

Very Random Chat
Now at 1.05 am in the morning, I am chowing down on a cup noddles!! Hahaha.. I am hungry... :p I couldn't fall asleep because of a cup of bubble tea. I guess I still did not learn from past lessons.. Caffeine after 4 pm is fatal to my good night's sleep. But I can't help it... The glutton in me is wailing out for some bubble tea! It has been about 3 weeks since I have my last cup and I really miss those little chewy black pearls!
