Essentials Haul

I've recently mentioned that I was nuts about the Vanilla Bean Noel scent from Bath and Body Works, so when I've noticed that this years X'mas scent was up on their webpage, I had to stock up.

Apart from the Bath and Body Works X'mas scent, everything else are just essentials that I use daily.

My Opinion:

 

I've previously tried the Yes to Grapefruit Brightening Facial Towelettes and was pretty sure that I've finally found the best makeup wipes, but since I still had a packet of the tomatoes towelettes I have to finish it off before ordering again.

 

The first time that I've tried these, I wasn't sure if I liked it, because these towelettes weren't as saturated as the grapefruit one, and the scent was weird, I don't know how to describe it, but it smells like chemicals and I didn't like it.

 

Now fast forward one month, I have already finished my packet and ordered a few more online. Although I didn't appreciate the scent, I've noticed that since I've started using these I didn't break out once. I've been kind of lazy, and have only been using these wipes to remove my makeup, so I guess it does works in removing makeup and controlling blemishes.

 

I've been so impressed with the Yes to Facial Towellets that I went ahead and ordered the cucumbers wipes as well, reviews are coming up soon.
