Urban Decay Naked Vault Vol IV

This was my big gift from my parents this year, and I am so excited about it! The 4th volume of the Naked Vault includes the Naked, Naked2 and Naked3 eyeshadow palettes, as well as nine lipsticks and three lip pencils. The only eyeshadows I had ever tried before receiving this set were from Avon, so I am looking forward to playing with this high-end makeup.

• Naked Palette
• Naked2 Palette
• Naked3 Palette
• 24/7 Glide-On Lip Pencil in 1993
• 24/7 Glide-On Lip Pencil in 714

Candles

I absolutely love candles from Bath & Body Works, especially for the cold winter days [Related post: Bath & Body Works Fall/Winter Candle Haul]. Campfire Donut smells very sweet, while the Focus candle is a relaxing eucalyptus scent.

 

Tea from Davids Tea | Nordic Tea Mug

Last year I discovered my love for tea, so since then I have been trying lots of the teas from Davids Tea. My parents gifted me Organic The Skinny, Organic Silk Dragon Jasmine, and Organic Serenity Now. I also received the Nordic Tea Mug, which will be very handy for making tea.

 

Elizavecca Milky Piggy | Hell-Pore Clean Up Mask & Carbonated Clay Mask

I first became interested in these two products after watching Tati’s YouTube videos about them. Tati called the Hell-Pore Clean Up Mask (US, Canada) the “World’s Most Painful Mask”, which definitely intrigued me. I have tried this mask once since receiving it, and while I didn’t find it too painful, I also didn’t see much of a result. I will definitely be giving it a few more tries, so stay tuned for a full review in the future.
As for the Carbonated Clay Mask (US, Canada), I have not tried it out yet, but I think it will be funny to see the mask bubble up on my face.

 

La Senza | Thermal Romper

This sleepwear romper is adorable and super comfortable for lounging around the house. This colour is currently out of stock, but there are four other lovely colours available.

 

Ultra Bright Selfie Light

This product is the best thing since the selfie stick 😂. The light has three different settings, and is very bright. The light clips onto your phone, and works without any cables. It just requires charging via the USB cable that comes in the package. Since the bulbs are LED, they should last for a fairly long time.

 

The Body Shop | Body Butter Set

This set includes the Strawberry, British Rose, Shea, Fiji Green Tea and Almond Milk & Honey body butters. The top of the packaging has a spinning arrow, to help you pick which scent to use.

 

Books

• The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls
• Talking As Fast As I Can by Lauren Graham
• Hollow City by Ransom Riggs
• Library of Souls by Ransom Riggs

 

Just Dance 2018

Every Christmas I receive the latest edition of Just Dance. I took dance classes for six years, but stopped after my high school graduation, so it’s nice to still do some dancing occasionally. The 2018 edition (US, UK, Canada) has great songs, including Shape of You by Ed Sheeran, Blow Your Mind by Dua Lipa, and Bad Liar by Selena Gomez.

Mugs

As an avid coffee, tea & hot chocolate drinker, I love a good mug. This Christmas I received two more to add to my collection.

 

Socks

My parents know I love socks, so they made sure to get me a wide variety: ankle socks, fluffy socks, boot socks, etc.

 

Food

Lindt chocolates are my absolute favourite, so I am very happy to have received those, as well as other chocolate & candy items.

---

I am so grateful for all of the presents I received this year. More than that, I am grateful to have spent time with my family and friends this holiday season. Having a break from school and work was quite relaxing.

Thanks for reading,
