THE FACE SHOP nail polishes + collective haul

Everyone seems to be posting about nail polishes so I decided to pick up a few last week.

I thought this would have a hologram effect but it's just really sparkly. :/ 

Color - It's a light and sparkly plum.

PP401

Thoughts: Dries fast. Application is a breeze so overall I'd say it's a good nail polish.

BL606

Color - Ultra Blue (Yes, I remember the colors from my Art class in elementary LOL! x)

Thoughts - Dries quickly. Just one coat is enough. Application is quick and easy. 

PK110

Color - A bright pink.

Thoughts - Of three nail polishes I picked this one is my least favorite. I love the color but application is a pain. I tried to apply three coats and it got streaky. :(  Ehhhhh... =___=

I think this is self explanatory, these are the swatches coated with Etude House's Jelly Pop. :3

Collective Haul - Please note that I did not haul everything at one time. Also please don't scroll down if you're the type of person who does not like to see hauls. :/

I haven't really been buying makeup lately. I have been buying more skincare products because I want to invest in great products that I can stick to and use for a long time. 

I have also been buying tools for skincare hehe. >.<

I read somewhere that The Body Shop's face brush is a poor man's alternative to a Clairsonic so I picked it up. :3 I also got a face massager because it makes my life a lot easier.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE L'Occitane's Divine Cream! It really is divine. :D I am elevating it to Holy Grail status and hopes it doesn't run out soon because it's rather too expensive. 

I numbered and labeled everything so you can quickly find it in this list:

1. L'OReal Pure Zone - Pore Tightening & Clarifying Toner
2. L'Occitane Divine Cream
3. L'OReal UV Perfect Dermo-Expertise UV Perfect
4. MAC Charged Water - Skin Hydrating Mist
5. MAC Studio Sculpt in NC 35 (Yes, I got a shade darker than my skintone to mix with my other foundations and to share with my sister. :P )
6. Kiehl's Eye Alert
7. Kiehl's Ultimate White - Intensive Whitening Essence
8. The Body Shop - Face Brush
9. The Body Shop - Face Massager
10.Paul & Joe - Moisture Lip Treatment
11. Human <3 Nature Hydrating Face Toner
12. The Body Shop - Organic cotton Rounds
13. The Face Shop Hologram "Face & it" Repair Nail in PP401
14. The Face Shop PK110
15. The Face Shop BL606

Let me know in case you want to see reviews on any of these items. =)

What's your most recent purchase? ^__^

May Favorites ♥ + FOTN

Hi everyone! I hope everyone is well. :3 I would first like to apologize for the complete lack of updates. I have been quite preoccupied lately and my sister is away and brought the camera with her. :(

Anyway, here are some recent purchases that I am currently loving:

Benefit - Posietint

I love the versatility of this product! It's so easy to apply and the staying power is great. It's something I can wear for an everyday-natural look and the color is subtle and buildable. 

Etude House Baking Powder Deep Cleansing Foam

I love how it feels - foams and bubbles up quite quickly and just glides on my skin. It definitely makes my face feel fresh and clean . I have also not noticed any break outs since I started using this. My pores haven't been acting up too. If there's anything, I noticed that the pores on my face seem to be getting smaller but then I am using the famous HNN lemongrass and tomato toner so I'm not so sure if it's because of this or that other product.

Some reviews compliment the smell of this product which smells kind of like baby powder. I'm not so crazy about the scent though, but I'll definitely repurchase this product!

HNN Organic Lip Balm in Peppermint 

I'm just addicted to minty products that sort of give me a tingly and cool feeling. Phoebe, the seller initially warned me of how sticky this product can be, but it does not bother me at all. I think I have been using it for a week and my lips aren't as dry as they used to be.

Etude House - Tear Drop Liner (white)

This product does not come with an instruction nor a box - I guess it's actually quite easy to figure out that it's just like a liquid eyeliner which should be applied near the tear ducts and under the eye area to give it an instant boost and make the eyes brighter. I love the effect that it gives my eyes! 

Revlon PhotoReady in 004 Nude

I know this product has been getting mixed reviews, but I actually love it! The sparkles don't bother me at all even though I have big pores, I think it works well with my skin. I know that it's kind of expensive for a drugstore makeup but I still think that it's worth it.  

FOTN: I am so sorry for the poor picture quality. These were taken with the webcam that's attached to my notebook. :/ LOL!

LOL! Looks like I have crossed eyes. >.<

FACE: Revlon ColorStay for Combination Skin, Lauress Ultimate Finish (Light), Smashbox Blush/Soft lights Duo in Under/Cover

EYES: Coastal Scents 88 Ultra Shimmer Pallete, Maybelline Eyestudio Gel Eyeliner (Black), Etude Tear Drop Liner and Clinique High Impact Mascara (01 Black) 

LIPS: MAC Cremesheen Creme Cup, Smashbox Limitless Lipgloss in Timeless

GAAAAHHHHH!!!! I wish the colors would have been a bit more vivid. :( Oh well.....

So, what product/s are you loving right now?

P.S. - I am trying to stop myself from buying the Revlon Colorburst Lipsticks that everyone is raving about. O.o

Sugar ^_^

Mini Haul Human Heart Nature

Hi everyone! :3 I received my orders from The Island Berry today. The seller Phoebe is really nice and I got the package the day after I placed and paid for my order.

I have always been a fan of organic products! So, I decided to try out the products of a local company, Human Heart Nature. 

I mostly ordered trial sizes. :) 

Aloe Vera Nourishing Shampoo & Body Wash - Peppermint 50ml

Mango Butter Nourishing Conditioner - Mandarin 50ml

Tomato & Lemongrass Facial Wash 50ml 

Tomato & Lemongrass Toner 100ml 

Lip Balm in peppermint 

Royal Jelly & Aloe Vera Night Face Moisturizer 50ml 

I have seen so many raves about this product. :3

Taken from their site, "When alcohol-based toners sting your face, they are actually drying out your skin which leads to premature aging! Now you can remove stubborn grime without the aging side effect. Gentle, nourishing and re-mineralizing, tomatoes are packed with vitamin C that penetrates skin to remove dead skin cells and unclog blocked pores, meanwhile Lemongrass is anti-bacterial and helps soak up oil. The mandarin scent will revitalize your nostrils too!"

I have high hopes for these products, and will do a review later when I feel that I have used enough to see or feel improvements on my skin. ATM - I am sooooo loving the feel of the Peppermint lip balm! :3

Trying Tear drop highlighter and the false lashes I bought from Etude yesterday. 

I just can never get a hang of putting false lashes on. LOL!
