Sephora Order: Clinique, Surratt, Sephora Collection, etc

It was only a matter of time before I placed a Sephora order! initially I was lured onto Sephora for the final day of the double points offer on skincare – I wanted to get the Clinique Moisture surge face Spray.  But then a few other nagging bits from my Lemmings list urged me to get other things…

I just couldn’t wait until April for the VIB sale to get the Surratt appeal – I had every intent to wait, but my resolve has been weakened by Hauluary.

One thing I will say is, holy, there’s so much packaging with these items, this is what the above items look like removed from their cartons:

Even the eyeliner came in its own box – ridiculous!

Well firstly, I did get the Clinique Moisture surge face Spray (woohoo, double points! ):

The Surratt stuff:

surratt appeal Relevée Lash Curler
The lash curler has been a lusted-after item for ages – way before the brand became available in Canada. I’m incredibly pleased by the presentation – I’ve never had a lash curler come with its own pouch before!

surratt appeal Artistique Eyeshadow in Marron (upper left in pan)
surratt appeal Artistique Eyeshadow in fee Dragee (upper ideal in pan)
surratt appeal Artistique blush in La Vie En Rose
surratt appeal Artistique custom-made palette case Petite
These are sold individually and goes into the customizable palette. The powders feel incredibly silky. I can’t wait to play with them! Az arcomon!

The other stuff:

Lavanila The healthy Deodorant in Vanilla Grapefruit
I’m transitioning from antiperspirants to deodorants this year and wanted a few options – this came highly recommended.  I’ll be posting about my experience with my first deodorant soon.

Lancôme drama Liqui-Pencil™ Longwear eyeliner in Pluie
I’ve been hearing good things about this and one of my all time much-loved eyeliners is a limited edition formula from Lancôme called Khol in Love. I’m hoping this will be a suitable replacement – this is exclusive to Sephora.

Sephora Collection Oil Infusion color & care in 06 Bubbly Grenadine
I read that these are a good dupe for the YSL Volupté Tint-In-Oil so I had to give it a try. Lip oils were all the rage for 2015 and I missed the boat – it’s catch up time!

Sephora Collection Long Lashing: Contoured Eyelash Comb
You know I have a wee bit of an obsession with eye lash paraphernalia so I’ve been eyeing this lash-rake™ until I could no longer resist it.  You’ll know when I use this if it’s a success or not by the presence of a pirate eye patch.

Victoria Beckham x Nails Inc. in Bamboo White
I can’t believe I paid this much for a bottle of nail polish but I’d seen the duo set on various blogs (namely, on StyledbyLauren) and I was genuinely curious about the polish quality.  The presentation of the polish is topnotch – even the bottle itself oozes sophistication. I hope the formula will generally apply itself.

Not shown: BITE appeal VIB Rouge Creme Lipstick
I gotten this for my friend for her birthday.  She’d wanted it before but I wasn’t VIB Rouge yet – now I have access to it so I got it for her.  I guess it’s another perk of VIB Rouge?

And speaking of VIB Rouge… I got my welcome gift!  It is undoubtedly a Nars blush, in the shade Goulue.  Here’s the unveiling of the VIB Rouge welcome gift:

I would describe Goulue as a rosey plum with a warm sheen.  I haven’t worn it yet so that’s just my initial impression.  This shade isn’t new, it was part of the Guy Boudin One night Stand blush palette in 2013.

One thing to note, despite how tiny the VIB Rouge blush appears, there’s actually quite a bit of product in there: 4.0g for the “mini” versus 4.8g for the full-size!

I neglected to take a photo of the two pans opened or a swatch of Goulue and I’m wiped from taking pictures.  So, I’m just going to pledge that I’ll do a comparison and review of Goulue blush coming up, ok?

Do you have any of these items I got from Sephora?  Hauluary is winding down but I have a few a lot more haul articles coming up due some backlog of articles and online orders.  For February, my Low-Buy kicks in and my budget is $50 for the month.

Egy kicsit Chanel Les 4 Ombres Tissé Vendôme Eyeshadow Quad Like

Chanel Les 4 Ombres Multi-Effect Quadra Eyeshadow a Tissé Vendôme-ben ($ 62)
Gyors kiabálni egy quadba, amit mostanában szeretem! – Chanel Les 4 Ombres Tissé Vendôme.

A két barnát és a bézsot, valamint a bézsát, valamint a könnyebb arany taupe-barna fényességgel rendelkezik. Nagyszerű az egyszerű, kifinomult mosdókarok a fedélen.

HIRDETÉS

Arany Taupe-y Browns örökre! Továbbá a macskákat és smink pulóvert is használom.
Lehet, hogy a sötétebb barna (ami szintén fényes kivitelben van) a mélység sarkába, azonban általában szeretném megtartani az alapot, és viselni kell, mint egy bélés, amelyet egy nedves vagy száraz szögletes kefével használnak.

The satiny beige is available in helpful for soft, subtle highlights on the brow bone as well as inner corner.

Ez a Tissé Vendôme a fedélen, valamint a Metropolitan bomlás fenyegetője az ajkaimon.

HIRDETÉS

Ez a korall árnyék nagyon hasznos is! Párosítsa korall vagy őszibarack blush vagy rúzs. Szeretem a fedélem mobil részére (az a terület, amely mozog, amikor villog, amikor villog), hogy kiemelje ezt a területet, és egy kicsit sokkal többet hozza ki (segít a szemem kevésbé kapucnis kapucnis).

Referenciaként NC42 vagyok.

Tisztító olaj, mert kevésbé valószínű, hogy fáj a szemem.

2. Krém a kávéban?

Igen, kérem!

HIRDETÉS

3. A dolgok ritkán viselnek?

Magas sarkú cipő, teljes lefedettségi alapítvány, turtlenecks, ceruza szoknyák, viszkető pulóverek és túlméretezett ingek.

Igen a Skinuticals CE-vitamin Ferulikus.

Szeretem mindkettőt, de ha meg kellene választanom, választanék klinikát, mert szeretem a napvédőiket és az alkalmi smink stílusát.

7. Uborka vagy Edamame?

Miért olyan nehéz nekem, lol?! Edamame, azt hiszem, egy nagylelkű sóval.

8. Rózsák vagy freesia?

Freesia. Ez az évszak, amikor felugrik a környéken.

9. Valami új, amit nemrég felfedezett magadról?

Nemrégiben rájöttem, hogy most ivosa vagyok az illatokról, mint korábban, különösen a testápoló és a hajtermékekkel. Nagyon szeretem a finom illatokat.

Blogmas Day 16: trying out last year’s present

I received the Aloette Aloepure Restorative Enzyme Peel last  Christmas from the MIL.  And I just opened it a couple of weeks ago…

It’s the exact same idea as the Japanese cult product, remedy natural Aqua Peeling Gel.  I had utilized a peeling gel product before, called O’slee Rosehip Peeling Gel, which irritated my skin because of so much handbook scrubing of my skin. I was hesitant to use this enzyme peel however I checked out great evaluations online, so I figured I ought to just lastly give it a try.

Aloepure Restorative Enzyme peel is a bright eco-friendly gel:

It has a thick gooey consistency as well as smells citrus-y:

The direction reads:

Apply a thin layer of Restorative Enzyme peel to clean, dry skin. Rub carefully in a circular movement up until little beads form. when beading has stopped, rinse deal with with warm water.

When I very first utilized it, for the very first 30 seconds of rubbing, it seemed like nothing was happening. however the gel then turns much more liquidy as well as thin, at which point the product starts to sphere up on the skin. I’ve duplicated the directions on the back of my hand to show the resulting “beads”:

When I’m rinsing this product off with water, my skin feels *squeaky* clean. Afterwards, my skin does feel softer with no tightness or irritation.  However, I did ask my SO to feel the skin on both my hands to see which was softer – he guessed the one that I didn’t utilize the peel on!  Not extremely scientific, but…

The components are rather great as well as includes aloe, hyaluronic acid, different fruit extracts – as well as is alcohol-free:
Aloe Barbadensis leaf Extract, Butylene Glycol, Carbomer, Papain, Hyaluronic Acid, Glycosaminoglycans, Carica Papaya Fruit Extract, Cucumis Sativus (Cucumber) Fruit Extract, Citrus Medica Limonum (Lemon) Fruit Extract, Ananas Sativus (Pineapple) Fruit Extract, Citrus Grandis (Grapefruit) Seed Extract, Tocopheryl Acetate, Retinyl Palmitate, Citrus Grandis (Grapefruit) peel Oil, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Sodium Hydroxide, Blue 1 (CI 42090), Yellow 5 (CI 19140)

Some people insurance claim that the bit peeling beads are dead skin being scrubed off, however I beg to differ – it’s just the product beading up on itself.  I did a test on the back of my hand – used the gel 3 times consecutively as well as each time the product beaded up.  If it was truly scrubing off my dead skin, why would there still be so much “dead skin” after the very first as well as second peels?

Overall it’s a good product however I looked up the item online (for research study purposes) as well as discovered out that the 65g jar costs $47! To me it’s not worth it, however it was a good gift to receive!  I’m not as well familiar with Aloette however it seems to be along similar veins as Mary Kay.

Two concerns for you:
1) have you tried peeling gels before?
2) Do you have unused Christmas provides from last year?

Tokyo Milk wisdom No 26 perfume

pleased Black Friday!  I may or may not be out trying to nab a deal on winter season boots. I haven’t chose if I’ll brave the crowds.  I might just purchase online.

Today I’m evaluating Tokyo Milk wisdom No 26 perfume.  I’ve heard a lot about Tokyo Milk fragrances – how niche and unique they are; the official name of the company is Tokyo Milk Parfumarie Curiosite, for heaven’s sake.  But, I feel like it’s a very thoroughly manufactured brand image, not as indie or novel as they’d like us to think.

I purchased the eau de parfum of wisdom No 26 purely by chance: last year at around this time in November I was killing time in a little gifty shop – you know the kind, lots of trinkets adorned with whatever is the most recent trend – be it owls, foxes, pandas; necklaces with lightning bolt / mushroom / wishbone pendants, and a section of cutely packaged hand creams and perfumes at greatly marked-up prices.  They were having a 50% off sale on select fragrances, and wisdom No 26 was among the offering.  I snagged this for only $13.50.  I initially purchased it as a back-up present – just in case someone gave me a Christmas present who I wasn’t expecting to receive a gift from, I’d have something to give them back (do you do this – keep spares?)  But in the end, it wasn’t needed and the perfume sat in my stash unopened.  So I chose to open it and keep it for myself!

The presentation of the perfume is exceptional – it’s housed in a glass test tube casing with a cork topper.  The tagline for the scent is: Wisdom: the course of time & observation lead way to its inky depths.

Fragrance Notes: Water Lily, woods + Moss, Walnut, winter season Musk
Fragrantica categorizes this as Floral Woody Musk – I typically steer clear of scents with strong musk so I was a bit wary about wearing this, but I do like lily scents.

Upon opening up the vial, I saw that the rollerball was stuck askew onto the cork base – it just looked so messy.  Then I discovered that the cap on the bottle is crooked!  The threads of the bottle are malformed so that the cap screws on an angle.  I would have been embarrassed if I had given this away as a gift!

But the rollerball works just fine.  I was quite underwhelmed by this fragrance. I smell mostly water lily but it’s very one dimensional, and the staying power was very poor.  Within two hours of applying this, I could no longer smell it on my skin even with my nose best up against my wrist.  Again, happy I didn’t give this away as a present.

Overall: meh.  Maybe a 5. I’ve been so snarky in this review, I ought to give it a 5 for effort.

Not sure if I would venture into other Tokyo Milk fragrances – any fans out there who can sway me into trying another?

PP12: MAC Eye shadows in All That Glitters, Patina, Satin Taupe, Romp

Yay, it’s lastly a focus on the MAC eye shadow quad! I’m not expected to pick a preferred out of my job pan products (because the other products would get jealous) however I’m going to admit that I like these eye shadows just a teeny small more. Shhhh.

This is a MAC pro combination that I selected each colour myself, they are: All That Glitters, Patina, Satin Taupe, Romp:

Sadly, Romp is discontinued. however the other 3 are still easily available!

Here are the official MAC descriptions for every shade:
All That Glitters: beige w/gold pearl [Veluxe Pearl]
Patina: Taupe brown w/golden pearl [Frost]
Satin Taupe: Taupe with silver shimmer [Frost]
Romp: chocolate laced with gold [Frost]

I don’t believe the MAC descriptions are all that precise for All That Glitters as well as Patina.  All That Glitters is much more of a peachy pink shade, not beige. as well as Patina is much more of a sandy beige rather than a taupe.  Each of these 4 colours appear on my top 10 MAC eye shadow listing – to ensure that tells you exactly how much I like them!

It was appealing to do some comparison swatches (especially of Patina as well as Satin Taupe, because I likely own 3 dupes for them each) however I’ll save that for one more post.

Even within this quad, I do have small preference for Patina as well as Satin Taupe over the other 2 colours. many days I utilize Patina on the inner half of the lid, as well as Satin Taupe on the outer half.  It would be remiss if I do not mention MAC Wedge in this post, because I integrate it as part of my everyday look as the transitional shade to blend out along the crease.

I ought to likewise mention that the MAC pro combination I utilize to home these 4 refill pan shadows is the older style, on the left:

I really choose the older style empty combination as they’re slimmer as well as much more compact.

Last week, I accomplished what I believed was never going to happen: I hit pan on PATINA! That was one of the first MAC eye shadows I ever bought. I believe this is the very first time I ever hit pan on a full-sized eye shadow! ISTENEM! This is what it appeared like when I hit pan last week:

And this is what is appears like now:

MAC pro combination eye shadow refills expense C$8 ($6 USD) each (which is a fairly recent cost drop, before March 2016, they utilized to expense C$12 / $10 USD each).  And the empty 4-pan compact costs C$10 (I believe they utilized to expense double that!)

And the eye shadows went down once again this week (I have truly been digging into these lately):

But, do not fear, because I have back-ups of all the colours except for All That Glitters.

Annoyingly, the Cargo deal with powder hasn’t gone down once again this week:

Please inspect out my job pan buddies for their updates:
• Ingrid of Curly.Spring.Blossom
• Jodi of A Brash Attitude
• Chanelle of Chanelle Hayleyyy

If you might produce the ideal quad out of any type of 4 eye shadows (any brand), what would you choose?

Green Day

In honour of today being St. Patrick’s Day, I thought I would showcase some green makeup items in my stash.  Let’s use the local dollar store as a gauge for what colour green we’re talking about:

Looks like a Leprechaun vomited in there.
At first glance, I would claim that I do not own very numerous green makeup items.  But I actually do, especially eye shadows.

Here’s a curated selection of some green eye shadows I own:

1) Shiseido eye shadow in “Menthe” from the limited edition Eye color Bar – a sheer minty green
2) make up store Eyedust in Victory – this looked a lot much more green in the container but once swatched, it leans quite teal
3 – 4) Coastal Scents hot Pots eye shadow sampler called “Lakeside Breeze” – I swatched the 2 best hand side shades “Celadon Green” (top) and “Balsam” (bottom)
5) Artdeco Khaki green 254 – I purchased this in Germany, it’s a very greyed sage green shade
6 – 7) Cargo Eye shadow Duo in Oregon – sage green and golden olive shades
8) The Body shop Eye Colour in 43 velvet green – a forest green
9) Sephora Jumbo liner 12HR wear Kaki 05 – this came in a set or else I probably wouldn’t have picked this shade up specifically but it’s a beautiful olive green

I swatched them in the same purchase as noted above
Most of my green eye shadows lean much more grey and brown, which makes them a lot much more wearable. I especially delight in using a deep sage colour to smoke out a nude eye look.

In contrast I own only a few green nail polishes:

Balról jobbra:
• Illamasqua Nomad – a jade shade
• China Glaze Starboard – leaf green (and many true to the St. Patty’s day green)
• Illamasqua Rampage -deep vampy hunter green
• China Glaze Agro – a shimmery olive

Swatched in same purchase as noted above.
Unfortunately, I have no green blushes or lip products to share!  Do you own any green coloured makeup?

Having lived briefly in Dublin Ireland, I can assure you that this certainly is true:

This is from a beam inside the Guinness Storehouse in Dublin.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Melyek a Go-to WinTertime fellebbviteli termékei?

Brrr!
Bőrápolás, haj, smink, parfüm … Melyek a Go-to WinTumTime Fellow Fellow termékek?

Nos, a bőrápolás szempontjából, hol indulok még? dry skin is my huge problem when it gets cold, as well as it feels like I’m dry from head to toe. Az utóbbi időben egy cerabe gyógyító kenőcsöket végeztem, amely közel van bármilyen módon (valóban egy életmentő), mivel az ajkam száraz, száraz, száraz. Hasonlóan tedd a kutyákra, amikor durva érzés éreznek!

Más bőrápolási dolgok, amelyek segítenek a szárazsághoz ebben az időben –

Avene Xera nyugodt hirdetés: Használom ezt a gazdag, szégyenletes krémet a testemen, valamint az arcomon. Ez egy fenevad!

Hasonlóképpen hiszek az illatok remek ügyeiről az utóbbi időben, hiszen, amikor hideg lesz, szeretem kissé nehezebb parfümöket (jól, nehéz nekem, legalábbis). Az elmúlt páros télen élveztem Lancôme La Vie Est Belle!

Smink, valamint Charm Blog hétfői szavazás, vol. 715

It’s going to be a delightful day!

Szóval … mi a hétfői szavazás?

Kiváló kérdés! Ez nem, szemben a nevével, a tényleges szavazás, mint a bit Clicky gombok. Ez csak egy sokkal több vagy kevesebb véletlenszerű aggodalomra ad okot, amit minden hétfőn hétfőn adományoztam a múltban az elmúlt évadi években (2007 óta).

1. Tulips, roses or daisies?

I like them all, however today I’ll opt for pink roses.

2. What’s the most difficult thing about eyeliner for you?

There are so numerous things, OMG. By far the most challenging, though, is getting the lines to look even. My best eye is somewhat bigger as well as much more hooded than my left, so I have to change exactly how high up I take the liner as well as exactly how far out. If I don’t account for the difference, my eyes appear asymmetrical.

3. Besides a great color match, what do you look for in a concealer?

I’m so picky about concealer, particularly in the under-eye area. My top thing is that it cannot work out into my fine lines. DEHOGY! Nem köszönöm.

4. Cake today?

Cake every day!

5. Boots or sneakers?

Sneakers, 100%. I never understand when I requirement to chase after a child, as well as sneakers are much much more conducive to unscripted sprints.

Thankfully, no. We’re a one feline family.

7. What’s worse: pants that are as well tight or an ill-fitting bra?

Both are terrible as well as remind me of numerous poor dates in the ’90s. as well tight pants would be worse, though. At least you can take off your bra, you know? I mean, you might take off your pants, however then it would be a completely different party…

8. What’s your hairstyle for the day?

Half up, half down with a high pony connected with a scarf.

Trash Stash: September 2015

This month I seem to have finished up the core components of my face skincare products all at the same time – so odd how that happens.

The sense of accomplishment in finishing up products never gets old!

The Body Shop Vitamin E moisture Serum – $23 for 30ml (Body shop in store & online)
This lightweight serum includes glycerin, honey, and rice bran oil. I found it a bit watery and didn’t offer a long lasting hydration – my face felt less plump compared to other serums I’ve used. I reserved this for summer months during the day time due to this reason – this might be a good serum for oilier skin types. I do like that this package is in a vacuum pump but it’s visible through the bottle so you can see how much product is left.
Stash érdemesség: 6/10 visszavásárlás: Nem

Physician’s formula Anti Aging Laser Resurfacing Serum with 2.4 AHA – $21.95 for 30ml (drugstores & online)
This is a gentle chemical exfoliant that uses lactic acid, and can be used nightly under night cream.  I apply this lightweight gel lotion to cleansed face underneath my regular nighttime moisturizer – it makes my skin soft and glowy.  There’s also vitamin C and peptides in the concoction – it has quite a distinct fragrance but it isn’t offensive (I can’t place the smell but my first thought was Play-Doh).  I purchased this on clearance at 50% off – I don’t think this product is being discontinued but I think my local Rexall was just making space for other products.  So I grabbed 2.  I started this bottle in February and used it about 3 times a week.
Stash worthiness: 9/10     Repurchase: Yes

Shiseido Ibuki Refining moisturizer – $52 for 75ml (department stores & online)
I discussed this item in my Shiseido skincare post and out of love / like / Loath categories, it was noted in “Like” – this is a terrific lightweight daytime moisturizer that I especially like for the summer months. The main issue I take with this is the fragrance – Shiseido really needs to dial that down on many of their products.  I noted on the bottle that I cracked this open in April so it lasted me a solid 6 months, not bad really when I calculate out a per month cost of $8.67. I spend much more on food on a daily basis!
Stash érdemesség: 8/10 visszavásárlás: Igen

Lise Watier HydraSmart Gel-Crème Hydration 3D – $18 for 30ml (Shoppers drug Mart & online)
Another tube bites the dust! I like this pill-y gel cream less and less as I struggled to use this 2nd tube up… but guess what? I discovered another unopened tube in my stash!  I promise someone is playing a cruel joke on me.
Stash worthiness: 6/10     Repurchase: No

Reversa Cleansing Micellar service – $23 for 300ml (drugstores & online)
I picked this up purely out of curiosity – it was on sale and a Canadian brand – and was so amazed with it! It’s bumped Bioderma off the 3rd spot for my preferred micellar waters (#1 Yves Rocher, #2 Claudalie, #3 Reversa). I use this after oil cleansing to remove all traces of makeup (especially from the neck and hairline area that might be much more challenging to rinse off), and it is effective yet gentle. It also leaves my skin SO soft. It includes lotus root water which is expected to be soothing.  I’ll be reusing this pump bottle for my other micellar waters.

Yves Rocher second Skin effect foundation in beige 200 – $25 for 30ml
This is an simple and easy lightweight foundation that blends perfectly onto my skin using just fingers. I love this foundation. and you know what that means, right? Yup, they discontinue it. Ugh. Last year I stocked up on a few backup bottles from the clearance table but only managed to snag one bottle in my appropriate shade – I got a couple in the next shade up for mixing. YR does have a new lightweight foundation to replace this – I have yet to try it (I received a sample) but the packaging is much bulkier (I love how compact and portable this bottle is!)… and I’m not so sure about that “luminous” business.
Stash worthiness: 10/10     Repurchase: No (discontinued)

Neutrogena Ultra sheer dry Touch sunscreen SPF 110 – $16 for 88ml (drugstores & online)
This is a wonderful body sunscreen – I didn’t even know that they’re allowed to claim SPF that high! It applies nicely – not too greasy or too much of a white cast. This is strictly for body usage though, it’s much too heavy for the face. We took this on holiday with us (hence the battered looking bottle) and it worked amazingly during our hikes – no burns at all.
Stash érdemesség: 9/10 visszavásárlás: Igen

Shiseido sun protection Eye cream SPF 32 – $38 for 15ml (department stores & online)
I finally used up this tube – toward the end I cheated a little and applied this not only as an eye cream but all over my face. The 2nd tube shown isn’t empty but is being tossed away because it has expired because Oct 2014 so I don’t want to risk it. This is a good, non-greasy eye cream that contains SPF in the form of zinc oxide (9.3%)és oktinoxát (4,9%). Először is kihívást jelent az SPF-vel, és még sokkal nagyobb kihívást jelent, hogy megtalálja az ásványi fényvédőt (bár ez nem tiszta ásványi anyag, mint az oktinoxát kémiai fényvédő). Ez egy réteges smink alatt, de bizonytalan vagyok, ha visszavásárolom ezt, mert azt hiszem, csak használhatom a normál ásványi arcom fényvédőjét a szemem alatt.
Stash érdemesség: 8/10 visszavásárlás: Talán

Covergirl Lashblast Volume – $ 10 (gyógyszertárak)
Nem sok mondani a HG szempillaspirálomról. Úgy vélem, hogy a HG méltó, amikor az emberek bonyolulnak engem arról, hogy mit érzékelek, hogy az egyik leggyengébb jellemzőm! Ez volumizing, hosszabbítás, nem pelyh, nem piszm, könnyen alkalmazható és eltávolítható, de vízálló. Csak varázslatos!
Stash érdemesség: 10/10 visszavásárlás: Igen

Lise watier szempillaspirál wow – 24 $ (vásárlók drug Mart & Online)
Ezt a teljes méretű szempillaspirálot kaptam GWP-ként, így nem vagyok annyira bumming, hogy nem működött nekem. Gyönyörűen csak az emberre vonatkozik, annyira smudgy! Még egy szempillaspirál felső kabátot is felemeltem, és valahogy sikerül áttörni, és mosómedve szemét okoz. Továbbá a pálca annyira Bendy, hasonlóan a L’Oreal Miss Manga szempillaspirálhoz – túl floppy, hogy a szempillákra alkalmazzák a fedélzetemet.
Stash érdemesség: 5/10 visszavásárlás: Nem

Bath & Body Waikiki Beach Coconut tusfürdő – $ 12.50 295ml-re
Vettem ezt a $ 3 $ 15 értékesítés során. Nem tipikusan vásárolok zuhanyzót a BBW-tól, de nem tudtam ellenállni a nyár preferált illatának! When I use this in conjunction with the aloe gel lotion, then then layer on the body mist, the smell lasts so long – I love it!
Stash érdemesség: 9/10 visszavásárlás: Nem (megszűnt – még sok más van a stashemben)

Yves Rocher Tradition de Hammam keleti szappan argan és olívaolajjal (nem látható, mert mindannyian felhasználtak!) – 17 $ 5,3 oz. / 150 g bár (Yves Rocher Online & Online)
Megtekintettem erről. Bár ez egy fantasztikus hidratáló szappan volt, némi negatív volt: a bár mérete mamut volt – valóban kihívást jelentett a kezemben, hogy felálljon (nem tudom megmondani, hogy milyen sokszor dobtam ezt a zuhanyzóba! ) Also, the brown dye they put into this soap was so unnecessary – it left brown coloured soap scum on my shower curtain liner and shower tiles (I’m bumping my rating down from my original review for this reason). Én is csalódottam, hogy az illat nem volt ugyanaz, mint a megfelelő zuhanyolaj, ami az volt a fő oka annak, hogy megvásároltam ezt, hogy kezdje. Ez a bár sokáig tartott engem – olyan jó ár-érték arány.
Stash érdemesség: 7/10 visszavásárlás: Nem

Minták:

Lise Watier Intenzív Nedvesség Ultra Firming Day Care – $ 65 50ml (vásárlók drug Mart & Online) – Nem találtam ezt, hogy “intenzív nedvesség”, csak átlagos. Ezt a napi szemkrémként használtam, miközben nyaralni.

Clarins Multi-Active night youth recovery Cream – $62 for 50ml (department stores & online) – I’ve been curious about this cream for ages and it was such a let-down! Ez a malom arc krém egy régi hölgy illatú – soha nem fizetnék teljes árat erre. Glad I got to try a sample first!

Shiseido Benefiance WrinkleResist24 balancing softener Enriched – $55 for 150ml (department stores & online) – this is the fanciest toner I’ve ever used. and this gwp is in a legit glass bottle! I wouldn’t ever purchase the full size of this – overpriced and too fragranced.

And of course, this month I purged a whole bunch of my makeup!  Here’s a reward photo that my pal took of the makeup re-homing event:

There was red wine and sushi, and a sweetheart in awe of how much makeup was present (not my boyfriend, he knows all too well).

How was September for you in terms of using up items?
