December Favorites and Empties

Hi!! It's already the end of the month and also the end of the year. Do you have any plans on new year eve? I'm still deciding on several plans though.. I want to go out but the thought of traffic jam kinda turns me off, but the fireworks seem nice too... Anyway I'm gonna share about my December favorites and empties. I never post about empties before but it seems interesting because now that I think about it sometimes I bought things and not using it until it empties or maybe it doesn't suit me so I gave it or let it sit in the back drawer until expires. So here goes my favorites stuff for December and stuff that I emptied out this December (Quite a lot of them emptied simultaneously this month too!!). 

December Favorites

Mai Doll Mineral Pressed Foundation

I got this one from sasa.com and it only comes in one color which is natural. When I first look at the color from the website I think the color match but when the product came the color is a bit darker that I originally think. I don't really like it at first, but now I really like it. The trick is use as little as possible with the puff or for a better result I prefer to use a powder brush or kabuki brush to pick up the product. It has a matte finish at first but after a while it became more of a dewy finish which I love.

Sariayu Shimmering Powder

I bought this on a whim before because the packaging are cute and it was in a discounted price too but ended up loving it!! This powder came with a brush that is really nice to use. The product is a bit powdery so I have to gently use the brush in order not to pick up too much product. The shimmer is subtle and not too shimmery, I like to use it to highlight my face.

Max Faxtor False Lash Effect Mascara

Even though name suggest false lash effect the result are more natural. For those who want a bolder look might not like this but I looooveeeee the results. Previously I've try Maybelline Stilletto which give a nice lengthening effect but do not provide the curl and volume that I want. This one provide just the right one for me, although it is kinda on expensive side for me (IDR 125.000 / $12.5).

DKNY Be Delicious EDT

My brother have the same one and pick this one up for me too!! I'm really bad at describing scent but it has a fruity scent that's not to sweet and fruity. Hmm... Confuse right?? Me too... Anyway I just love this one.

The Body Shop Madagascan Vanilla Flower Fragrance Mist

My brother also got me this one for me and I'm loving it ever since. The scent is different from the usual vanilla scent which I'm not a big fan of. It last quite a while too!!

The Body Shop Cucumber Freshening Water

I only bought it because it was in a discounted price at first but ended loving it. I was kinda bored with the usual DIY ACV toner and want something to alternate with. As the name suggest it fresh me up in the morning after I was my face and even though it has alcohol in it it doesn't sting my face.

Clinique Moisture Surge Face Spray

I've been into facial spray lately because it gives an extra hydration boost and also moisturize my skin. The weather is crazy hot in Jogjakarta so this one is perfect.

Vivelle Hello Kitty Whitening Body Lotion

I bought them because the packaging are cute (again...) but after I tried them I really like them all. The scent are really nice, absorbs quickly and has a UV filter too!!

December Empties

Nike Woman EDT Deodorant

I don't really prefer this type of deodorant because my underarm is sensitive and sometimes they stings my underarm but this one is pretty nice. Although it's not travel friendly so I'm not gonna buy it again.

Mutouch Goats Milk Shower Cream

After using it for several months I finally emptied this one. I really love the scent and it doesn't dries my skin, but it was too big and I was getting bored of it.

Cyleina Organic Kojic Soap

After about a month or so I finally use all of it down to the last bit. It has nice orange scent and exfoliate my skin too, but only at the first week though.

Nature Republic Aloe Vera Soothing Gel

I just love love this one... I can use it on my hair, face, body, nail... I mean... It's a really versatile product!!

Baviphat Apple AC Therapy Sleeping Mask

Since just a small portion goes a long way, this mask last me for several month. It's great to prevent acne, makes skin feel nice and supple, and the apple scent is great for aromatherapy too.

Melanox Premium Advanced Formula Whitening Serum

I got this from Guardian Weekly Special and meant to use this product to lighten my blemish marks. I also put it on my knee and elbow to lighten the pigmentation. So far it helps lighten my blemish marks although the results is quite slow, for my elbow and knees it doesn't show any improvement yet. This serum also moisturize my skin so I can skip moisturizer with this one, but it leaves my skin feels a bit oily afterwards so I have to blot my face before I continue with sunblock and bb cream otherwise my face will feels too oily.

C+M Rose Water

I mostly use this to moisturize my face during a hot day and it also serves as an aromatherapy because it has a really nice rose scent. The downside is the bottle leaks easily so I have to be careful.

Vivelle Hello Kitty Whitening Body Lotion

I like this body lotion so much I already emptied 2 of the three that I bought this month. That's it fellas... My favorite products this December and some of the product that I've finally emptied out. Ohh.. and BTW I went to Galeria Mall Jogjakarta yesterday and saw that Make Over has a 35% discounted on all item and I ended up buying white eyeliner and nude lipstick *slapped self*.
