Hey everyone,

I guess most of you know the feeling of loving a brand or special products without being able to purchase them in your country.

For me that’s the problem with all those lovely products from LUX Japan

LUX logo

While I lived in Japan I discovered so many good brands and products that sadly are not available here in Germany. LUX is probably the brand I miss the most.

They have a wide range of different hair care products, skin care and skin cleaning products.

You can check out their products at www.lux.co.jp

Today I would like to show you my favorite LUX products.

 

LUX スーパーリッチシャイン モイスチャー

Shampoo and conditioner

シャンプー＆コンディショナー

LUXスーパーリッチシャイン ダメージリペア

Shampoo and conditioner

For each hair care line they not only have Shampoo and conditioner, but also hair mask and other care treatments.

LUX ボディソープ

White Charm

ホワイトチャーム

Velvet Luxury

ベルベットラグジュアリー

Softy Luxury

ソフティラグジュアリー

Everytime I go back to Japan my suitcase is almost empty on my way there and totally packed on my way back. I love japanese cosmetics, as well as their food. So for me it is important to get as much as I can when I am traveling back from Japan, because I know I won’t be able to re-purchase here.

Now tell me, which brands or products do you miss in your country. I would love to hear!

HAULy friday – 21 – random things

2

Hello everyone,

days like today really push me to the limit.
We planned to buy wallpaper, white paint and our whole new kitchen, including cutting the workspace wood and the “hole“ for the sink….
We also wanted to start renovating our new apartment.
I tell you things went wrooong.
The paper turned out pretty shitty, meaning it is too thin, because of that it is impossible to cut it with a cutter knife without ripping it. We ended up deciding we will only paint the walls and bring back the wallpaper and glue stuff to the shop.
Also we bought three huge work space woods /counters. All needed yo be shortened which worked, but one needed the hole for the sink even though we brought the sink to the guy at the shop, he cut it too big!!!! He did not apologize, he even blamed me because I put too much pressure on him saying I needed the counter cut today not tomorrow or monday. Bitch what?!
Anyway, I am super tired now and not really able to make a huge HAULy friday pist, so I just want to show you some products I bought a while back, but which I love.

shampoo and conditioner from Balea. I do not like this. I don’t know why so many people wrote good reviews about it, but it just doesn’t work for me.

shaving from from Balea. Very nice and good smelling. I just love it.

honey mania body scrub from The body shop.
In general I love the scrubs from them. I recent also bought one from Rituals, which I love even more and one from Balea which I still have to try.

Have an awesome weekend.

HAULy friday – twelve – L’occitane

Hey everyone,

welcome to another HAULy friday post.

hauly

Recently I did a huge order at L’occitane which I discovered thanks to a germany Youtuber, her name is Reni. You can check out her channel here.

Reni got me interested in L’occitane, especially in their hand cremes and their Shine and Color Protection Shampoo.
I liked L’occitane on Facebook and saw that they offered a set of 3 mini hand creme for their Facebook fans.
That was the perfect chance for me to dive in. I signed up and picked up the creme set for free.

I talked about that in my HAULy friday two.

Back then I not only got the free hand creme set but also a “full sized” hand gel for 5 euro and some samples to try out.

These were the hand cremes

this is the green tea hand gel

one of the sample was also the Shampoo I wanted to try out.

I tried everything out and I am very impressed! I love these products.
The cremes and also the hand gel have a really great texture and are absorbed very nicely. The shampoo was also amazing which is why I had to place an order. L’occitane always has special offers and since I was been registered with them after getting the free hand cremes they sent me a coupon for another set of welcome products.
At the time of my order they also offered a spring bag with mini products which I also wanted to get but since you only can add ne coupon per order I ended up separating it in two orders.

I ordered both as presents because I really love their boxes :P

with each order you can also pick three samples

with my second order came only two samples, but that’s fine.
In the following picture you can also see the welcome set, which included shower oil, foot creme and their karité hand creme.

I also bought their cherry blossom bag, because I really really love cherry blossoms.
It contained a hand soap bar, shower gel, a shimmery body lotion and the hand creme which I own twice now^^

another thing I really wanted was the spring bag, because I thought the bag was super cute!

it contained the almond hand creme, shower oil and skin oil.

last but not least I bought the two most expensive products, which are the 500ml shampoo and their hair repairing oil.
The oil I tried while I was picking up the hand creme trio form the store. For the rest of the day my hair smelled so gorgeous that I had to buy this one as well.

As you can see I own some of the products more than once, but that is totally fine since I will definitely use all of them.
The quality and the smell of all these products is simply addicting haha

If you have any questions regarding the products please ask me or visit their website www.loccitane.com
