There are also so many interesting launches this month, catching my eye is the Dermaveen moisturiser and also I've tried the SheaMoisture ColorCare Masque with great results so will be looking into the matching shampoo.
Those lippies! Gorg!
The Alpha H would be awesome to try.
I really want to try the Rodan + Fields but it a bit pricey
I love Lalisa as MAC ambassador. Rocking that 'glass skin' look.
Biggest and best discovery is now launched AlphaH serum. Hydrating, texture smoothing and did improve my uneven skin tone. Excellent formula! Used for over 2.5 months nighlty without fail on its own.
I love the burts bees promotion as I have very dry lips.
The Evodia beach coconut and lime fragrance sounds amazing! Has anyone tried it?
The DermaVeen Calmexa™ Moisturiser with Ceramides, I will be checking that one out. Will make a change from using CeraVe.
Big fan of Kynd because for everyone sold they help someone in need. Oh and I found that it worked for me 🙂
Use so many of those products Thanks BH for the List for November much Appreciated.

Me too S-P. I am currently wearing there nailpolish. Love it
Under the best beauty launches this month one product being 1000 Hour Heated Eyelash Curler. When I clicked on the link BH Beauties had trialled this in 2012
Oh that's interesting about the Dermaveen moisturiser with Ceramides. Looks like it's just one type of cermide though? Ingredients from Chemist Warehouse website.
> Aqua, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate, Glycerin, Paraffinum Liquidum, Cetearyl Alcohol, Avena Sativa (Colloidal Oatmeal) Kernel Flour, Dimethicone, Glyceryl Stearate, Distearyldimonium Chloride, Ceteareth-20, Petrolatum, Phenoxyethanol, Ceramide 3, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice Powder, Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract, Allantoin, Panthenol, Sodium PCA, Tocopheryl Acetate, Glycine Soja Oil, Xanthan Gum, Disodium EDTA, Idopropynyl Butylcarbamate, Isopropyl Alcohol, Tocopherol.
If not mistaken, Cerave daily moisturising lotion has 3 types whereas QV intensive with ceramides has 2 types.
That's interesting, I purchased one of those back in 2012 or 2013 too
I really want to try the Alpha H Liquid Gold serum now reading some of the above comments!
Wow so much!! I have a new found appreciation for Garnier and what they are doing to be more greener and give back. I was part of natural beauty month and loved the products I tried. I literally used the whole jar of their night cream and have been using the eye cream too. Great natural bargain buy!!
Lots going on this month. There are a few products I wouldn't mind trying even though I really don't need anything.
I like the foundation.
I too love burts bees products especially the lip balms.Thank you
I would love to try the Liquid Gold serum
I want to try everything, especially the AlphaH Serum.
I trust **Yohannas’s** review and recommendations.
I hope this would work for me.
Fantastic new launches for November. Love the Burt’s Bees project. Garnier with their Green Beaty program. Also, Avéna with their Dermatologically tested sunscreen.
Thank you for sharing!!! Some great ones to try out!!!
That eyelash curler has my name on it <3
New products!
I would love to try Mavala Switzerland Mavalip Lipstic.
I love these articles, well apart from being tempted to shop!
Good to see brands making the switch from plastic packaging to compostible.
Lots of different and new products
Dermaveen's Calmexa sounds a soothing product for itchy skin – just in time for summer
Yay Burts Bees – great collaboration, so appropriate too
Now the Kynd donation is meaningful
Good of Garnier to donate but it doesn't seem much
Weleda's Baby Care range is so good – the nappy change cream is especially good for helping to heal nappy rash
Wow
Great article thanks for the info
Although I visit lots of beauty websites I've never seen Mavala products listed. Maybe their products are more available in physical stores such as chemists rather than online.
Some great products here
