Another late update...busy busy!

Hi all, I have new stuff to show you:

Helena Rubinstein mascaras!! Rawr.

From top to bottom:
Lash Queen Feline Extravaganza - 01 Deep Black
Lash Queen Feline Blacks - 01 Deep Black
Lash Queen Sexy Blacks - 01 Scandalous Black

These are all WP (waterproof) and are like GLUE on the lashes. I recommend a powerful eye cleanser for these (such as Lancome). My personal favorites are Feline Extravaganza (the black tube, has a relatively small straight brush) and Sexy Blacks (the flower tube, has a curvy brush). They all lengthen and curl about the same, I think Feline Blacks underperformed a bit for me but I could just be seeing things...it also has a larger brush compared to the other two.

Sure I'd give them all a Rating 5/5, but very pricey. You get what you pay for.


This is my second Jill Stuart palette in 101 smoky quartz.

Swatches:


Gorgeous palette/colors. The drawback is that bits from the black eyeshadow fall and smudge everywhere. Ugh! You can even see the flakey black bits in the swatch..

Rating 4/5 ...If only it weren't for the little bits. I still wear it and suggest some primer.


Paul & Joe Color Powder in 071

Swatch:


The packaging is love but the shadows are really nothing special. It has been sitting on my shelf and I seldom wear these colors.

Rating 3/5

Late Update...

Hi all, I know its been awhile since I've posted. Been much more focused on school and work. I had some things on my camera (old and now dead...I really have been trying to get images of swatches on my iPhone but the quality is not good) that I had been meaning to post:

Dior Minaudiere Pink Golds

ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS!! A+++ I am so happy with this purchase.

Urban Decay Naked Palette


Shiseido Integrate Rainbow Grad Eyes in BR701


Chanel Regard Perle Eyeshadow Quad


I also bought a lot of Burberry Cosmetics but I won't be sharing those since my camera broke before I purchased =(. The last two pictures here are bad quality because its my iPhone...

major haulage !!

I'm soooo excited guys. I just got my Jill Stuart Blush Blossom 03 lady amaryllis and 05 poetic daisy. The packaging is super super cute and lovely. I love the little bows!!







I also got two new eye shadow palettes from Cosme Decorte AQ and Marie Claire..very shimmery stuff!! I wore these to the club haha~






The current BB cream I am wearing ;)


Hehe...I couldn't resist the cute pink packaging by Too Faced! Also got a MAC lip stick in Hot Gossip and a Chanel foundation brush.


Very useful mirror from Sasa!! As you can see it lights up ;) Also got the Kao Liese Juicy Shower..which smells ohhh delicious and heavenly but unfortunately the scent doesn't last very long...=(

Gel Liners

Hi guys going to do a gel eye liner review after my recent purchase from Coffret D'or.




From left to right: Coffret D'or Full Keep Gel Liner GY-05, Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner Black Ink, Rock & Republic Gel Eye Liner Smut, Stila Smudge Pot Black Cat, Stila Smudge Pot Black, Benefit Creaseless Cream Shadow/Liner Strut

My camera hates to focus! My favorite in this lot (in order) are Bobbi Brown, Stila Black Cat, and Coffret D'or. The best thing about Bobbi Brown Gel Eyeliner is that it glides right on and is a super rich and pigmented black.

Other things I got...to be swatched and reviewed:

BB Cream haul

Hi guys long time no update ._.; I got two BB creams samples from Isqueen and a full tube from Etude House to try. They are my very first blemish creams.

- Isqueen High Definition BB Cream SPF 18
- Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream SPF 30 (limited edition Hello Kitty)



For sampling, I immediately saw that Isqueen White Lucent Color was too light for me (the lighter purple tube) so I photo'ed just the Bright Natural Color (dark purple tube) as it was closer and pretty much the same color as Etude House Precious Mineral when blended in.


ISQUEEN vs ETUDE



Both look the same blended in; they are slightly lighter than my natural skin tone during the summer. Isqueen is a lot easier to blend as the formula is thinner than Etude. They are both lightly scented, and they smell good! Neither make me break out. I prefer Etude House however for the higher coverage ;)

Past Few Months...

I'm so sorry for not updating with info and swatches. Even this post is just pictures of what I got. Please let me know if you want a review on any of them. Im not dead...I've just been so busy lately with school and work =(

A Few Things

Sorry for not updating in awhile...been busy with school and such ^^;
Here are a few things I've acquired between now and the last haul post.

Included are BEAUTÉ de KOSÉ eye colors & lotion, Paul & Joe nail polishes and face color, Lavshuca lipstick, Chanel Mascara, Majolica Majorca Jeweling Pencil

I will post swatches and any requested reviews later

Early December Haul

I just came back from New York last week so I definitely stopped by some of my favorite places like Bergdorf Goodman and Anna Sui. I mostly bought clothes...I regret I didn't purchase more Anna Sui while I was there!

Paul & Joe eye color palette in #001 Ingenue



I love this palette so much!!! The colors are very neutral and pretty. Its great for daily/casual make up.

The rest of the haul:

Nail Polishes:
Paul & Joe 04 Provence
Anna Sui 004 (Silver Specks)
Anna Sui 601 (Orange Glitter)

Paul & Joe face color in 11 Rhapsody

I haven't tried this yet but doesn't it look beautiful!

Sisley palette phyto star eyes

Very expensive but I gave into temptation of using my gift card..and the packaging >-<. The green/gray is really unique color. All of the colors are very sparkly and pigmented with silver shine. I haven't worn this yet so I don't know if I love it yet but its looking really good to me. I will post swatch pictures later.

Anna Sui Rouge V in 660

Omg this is such a beautiful color!!!!!! The display packaging was so much prettier though, with a rose the same color as the lip color itself. It is very wearable, and I think this could actually easily become a favorite lip stick of mine.

November Haul

Shu Uemura x Tsumori Chisato = loooooove. I just had to purchase from this collection...look how cute the packaging is and plus I love cats + gold + shiny things.


Mini Brush set !! So cute, I love how it is pink on the inside too which makes it extra girly.

I also bought the Planet Cat Palette and Illamasqua's Static Pure Pigment. I admit I bought the Palette mainly for the packaging but the colors are also unique to my collection. As for the pure pigment in static, it is gorgeousss omg.





Girlactik Beauty and Becca Cosmetics



For Girlactik I purchased Heaven's Dust in Angel (gold), and for Becca Loose Shimmer Powder in Mermaid (beige) and Princess (pink). The swatch photo doesn't nearly describe how beautiful and sparkly these glitters are. Especially the Girlactik one, which contains a sort of turquoise and lavender-silvery shimmer within the gold.
