Product: Bonorden “Better Sleep” pillow and room spray
Price: 15 euro
Promise: The main component of the spray is the essential organic oil Swiss stone pine and is refined with a touch of tangerine. It promotes falling asleep and staying asleep and helps the body to relax more deeply and sustainably.
Optics: The bottle is pretty to look at and serves as a decoration on my dessert table.
Effect: It has almost become a ritual for me: in the evening, just before I go to bed, I spray my pillow and blanket with the spray. It’s amazing how quickly my body associates this pleasant scent with relaxation and calm. I find it easier to fall asleep, am rested in the morning and my complexion is rosier.
Perfect for spring because: Due to the clock change and the temperature fluctuations, I sometimes find it difficult to sleep. I’m also looking forward to taking the product with me when I travel – because it makes me feel at home, especially in someone else’s bed.

Product: Perfume Jo Malone London Nashi Blossom Cologne
Price: 135 € for 100 ml
Promise: A fragrance that smells of spring, departure and romance.
Optics: The bottle is kept simple, but still looks elegant and pretty.
Effect: After the long winter, I long for light, warm rays of sunshine, fresh green, blooming flowers, summer clothes and lightness. Exactly this longing is satisfied a little when I spray on the scent.
Perfect for spring because: …he smells exactly like it. It’s like spring in a bottle. It goes wonderfully with the spring fever that is finally slowly breaking out, lifts my spirits and gives me exactly that trace of lightness that I have been missing in winter for so long. It not only smells wonderfully of nashi blossoms, lemon and white musk, it also provides an energy boost that spring brings with it.
Rosy lips and cheeks

Product: Rem Beauty Eclipse, stick for cheeks and lips
Price: about 20 euros
Promise: The 2-in-1 balm was designed for both cheeks and lips. The practical stick provides a quick, rosy glow with a natural finish.
Optics: Futuristic! The stick is reminiscent of distant, beautiful galaxies. The rounded, transparent lid ensures that we can also recognize the color in no time at all.
Effect: My cheeks and lips glow in the exact same shade (mine: Audition Nude Rose)! Delicate, but still present. Two small swabs are enough for me. If you like the color result to be more intense, you can easily build up the saturation with the pen.
Perfect for spring because: the balm conjures up a pleasant blush on your face after the cold winter days.
Glitter always works

Product: Neonail “Colour me up” collection in the color “Better than yours”
Price: about 11 euros
Promise: Neonail’s UV coatings not only last a long time, they also bring a lot of color into play. With the combination of delicate turquoise and sparkling glitter, the nails are given an extraordinary kick of freshness with the tone “Better than yours”. Thanks to the innovative flash effect, this UV nail polish makes your nails shine.
Optics: As usual, the paint comes in a black bottle with a colored dot on the lid. So you can easily distinguish all colors from each other.
Effect: Lots of glitter and not 100% opacity – but that’s exactly what makes the polish so great. Wear it over other colors or alone for a touch of turquoise. I love the glitter effect; unbeatable in flashlight or in the sun.
Perfect for spring because: here we have the perfect mix of spring colors and glamour. In addition, the paint is so versatile – love it!
