┌(★ｏ☆)┘ﾒ3ﾒ3☆５５５⇨ﾘﾝﾒﾛ０８１８♪: my favourite products of 2024

I know 2024 is over but I wanted to show you some highlight products that I loved last year.

I hope you can find some that interest you as well <3

Hair

Herbal Essence Rose Scent Hair Products

For a while I was obsessed with having all my products rose scented so I picked up herbal essence sometime. I had tried all products and still use their conditioner as a leave-in (and re-bought it).

I love how soft and smooth it left my hair.

L'ador Keratin LPP Shampoo

I am in love with this keratin shampoo from Lador..

I usually have frizzy and wavy hair but the additional keratin makes my hair really smooth and silky.

I might want to try a keratin treatment sometime then...my hair really likes it.

This is the type of curling rod I like to use to make my curls overnight.

I got mine from Aliexpress in a hot pink color.

I used a couple methods and this is the only one that's easy and quick to do but also still comfortable enough to sleep in.

Make sure you go section for section starting at the top and always twist twice around the rod before adding another section.

A good thumb rule is to make sure you're twisting the hair around the rod over your sectioning "line"...Always go upwards!!

To make sure the curls remain curls and not become waves, do not comb through it in the morning when taking them out.

I like to headbang to loosen it...it's miracolous!

I only comb through the top part of my hair to make it a little more neat.

Schwarzkopf Gliss Night Elixir

My all-time favourite to apply on tips and some lengths.

When you have healthy hair to begin with it makes sure you don't get split ends...ever.

Of course now I have bleached my hair and I can't expect it to be a miracle product but despite the aggressive damage I am putting on my hair now it still is able to make it look less awful and gives it proper moisture. 10/10 recommend.

Tangle Teezer Detangling Brush

I love love love my Tangle Teezer. The hype is real!

Normally you shouldn't brush your hair when wet but because I like to evenly spread my leave-in conditioner I have to comb through it cautiously. It is amazing.

It is literally the best brush you can get for your hair.

I own the pink one (on the right side of the picture).

Skincare

Skin1004 Centella Ampoule

I absolutely love skin1004 products and this ampoule was working just lovely.

I loved using it during my night routine between toner and night mask.

It made me more curious towards other skin1004 products that I am also satisfied with.

Some by Mi Yuja Niacin Sleeping Mask

I loved using some by mi products for a while and this night mask was my favourite of them all.

I re-bought it like 3 times until I had to convince myself to try something else again.

Benton Snail Bee High Content Essence

I have been using Benton products for a while now and I am in love with their snail bee series.

I am currently still using the toner and the essence at night.

I had been using their sheet mask sometime before and was convinced to buy their products.

Benton Centella Cica Spot Cream

Another Benton product that I got to know about via a sheet mask.

Their sheet mask literally killed my acne but unfortunately was too aggressive and left my face oily and irritated. However I figured the same kind of product as a spot cream might work well and IT DOES!

It literally kills any pimple over night.

Even the tough ones are gone after the second or third day.

Makeup

Romand Juicy lasting tint #20 dark coconut.

Last year I was totally into red lips (now I am shifting more into pink) and I was obsessed with the romand juicy lasting tint.

Don't be confused by the brown color, if your lips are a natural pinkish shape it will turn out more reddish.

It doesn't matter what matte I used underneath, it always made it look lovely.

My favourite combo was with Etude Fixing Tint #06 Soft Walnut.

Revolution Forever Flawless Palette

Last year I got obsessed with Revolution Palettes. They are affordable, have a variety of interesting shades and the quality of the glitters are BOMB.

My favourite one is Forever Flawless.

The color Attraction worked beautifully as a highlight on the inner corner of the eyelid.

I mainly bought it because of Empathy and Bond but I ended up not using them as often because they're just that well pigmented and very bold for everyday use.

Joocyee Neo Deco Palette #F15

When I bought the Joocyee Palette I planned using it exactly as shown in the example but did only once now. What I did not properly understand (because of insufficient translations on Yesstyle) is that the case had to be ordered seperately.

My order contained a product that couldn't be shipped after weeks.

I had to seperate the order and it arrived like almost 2 months after I ordered it and until then all the cases were sold out so I am keeping it in the plastic packaging now HAHA.

But despite that the product is amazing. I have oily lids and I am used by now that at the end of the day my eyeshadows will become an eyeliner on my crease lmao.

No, primer won't help...but this product is well pigmented despite the low use of product that it's almost the only product that does not get stuck after 8+ hours. Mad respect.

Etude Syrup Glossy Balm

I've got all 3 shades of Etude Syrup Glossy Balm and all shades are absolutely perfect!

I mostly used Rosy Lavendar (in the middle) because of it's neutral tone it was perfect when I couldn't decide what color to match with my outfit or didn't feel like putting too much attention on my lips.

They are leaving the lips moisturized for hours. I have to admit I struggled a bit understanding how to get the product out and felt incredibly stupid after I got it.

It has a button on the bottom and I kept twisting the bottom thing.

14,5mm Bubble Blue

These are currently my favourite lenses and I wear them daily.

I usually don't like wearing blue lenses because most are too bright and I often opt for grey ones then instead but these have a beautiful color and is everything but too bright.

I got mine from Ifairycon but I have seen that many sellers get it from places like Aliexpress as well and I think if it really doesn't irritate the eyes, I don't see why you shouldn't get it directly from there for 1/4th of the price then.

They are literally the same damn lenses.

Bodycare

Dove Creme-Shower-Peeling

My body hates most peelings, they are always too aggressive or make my skin feel irritated but when I tell you I LOVE these.

They not only leave your skin super soft and moisturized but they are mild and still get the job done.

I wish they would publish more scents and variations.

I got one of these silicone body brushes that I use to clean my body with shower gel.

It is soft to use and your skin feels squeaky clean afterwards!

I got mine from Aliexpress in a hot pink color.

Lifestyle

Bora Chung - Cursed Bunny

One of my favourite reads of last year was Cursed Bunny.

I soaked this book up so quickly.

It featured interesting stories that are short but makes you think about the deeper sense behind it.

Giuseppe Cremonini Aceto Balsamico Di Modena

I have already shown you this balsamico in a couple blog posts.

Me and my mum are obsessed. They have a variety of flavours but our all-time favourite is with fig.

Another obsessions from me and my mum is burrata cheese!

I loved eating it and introduced it to my mum mid 2024 as well.

Even though it is a bit on the pricier side it's just so tasty.

It is like perfect for mozzarella lovers that want some more taste to it.

Ecover laundry detergent

After 3 years it remains my only and favourite product when doing laundry.

I got so used to it I literally CAN'T smell chemical products anymore.

They clean my clothes very well and it doesn't leave an uncomfortable smell afterwards.

I literally use all versions of it: for blacks, for colors, for wools and the universal.

I also like adding the fabric softener from them.

A little less than a cup is enough for me and has been working very well.

Agustina Bazterrica - Tender is the flesh

Another recommended book read of 2024. It is about cannibalism, so if you are of soft nature it might be disturbing for you to read. I think the whole idea around it was intriguing and exciting but I also got mad finding out that the guy is an asshole as well.

I don't want to spoiler more than needed though.

I made a list of all the books I've read in 2024 with a short text about my impression of it.
