November WrapUp/December TBR

November was a really good month in reading terms. I read six books. I almost completed my TBR, with the exception of the classic pic of the month. I was about to start it but other book got in the way. Here are the books: Cursed by Lizzy Ford: I got this book as an arc on NetGalley. To be honest, it was the cover that caught my attention in the first place. Then I read the synopsis and founded really interesting, so I downloaded it. I am really happy I did, because it was absolutely amazing, super recommendable. It follows Adrienne, who moves to New Orleans where her sister disappeared. She tries to know more about that.

I definitely clean my face, without being too dry. In the mornings I paired these with the “Eucerin AquaPorin Active” moisturizing cream with “light texture”. This was one of the best moisturizing creams I have ever tried. The texture was rich on the hand but as you extended on the face it became real
