Feistyskies was just asking everyone the other day to share their recent hauls/buys, so I shall happily oblige her. I ordered a few stuff off cherryculture.com back during the christmas period, when they were having their 20% off and it finally arrived a few days short of a month.
Gahh... I swear I'm gonna go broke soon... T3T
Here's the envelop with all my stuff. Look at the amount of stamps on it, gah ha ha ha! My sis was urging me to give my mom the stamps, since she used to collect them.
Left to right: L.A. Girl Nail Polish in "Groupie", NYX Blush in "Mauve", NYX Concealer in a pot in "Beige" and NYX Mega Shine lipgloss in "Natural". I guess form the pics you can see how much a NYX junkie I am. I absolutely love their cosmetics - such good quality at such affordable prices. If only I lived in the States... (I'll go broke even faster) ...
Here's the concealer. This is my virgin pot of concealer! Yes, I can finally hid my awful eyebags. *goes on to demonstrate*
Can you see... err, the difference? The left eye is with the concealer, the right isn't. The product is pretty good - it's creamy but it dries to a powder form, and it has decent coverage too.
Ai yah, here's a clearer pic. It's pretty obvious, left is with, right is without. It looks a bit pasty here cos I don't use foundation and I haven't dusted on my face powder yet.
Here's the blush. It's a pinkish, dusty rose colour, really pretty.
Hand swatches of the blush and the concealer.
The colour payoff is really good, albeit it a bit powdery. However, after trying it a few times, I think the colour doesn't really suit my skin tone, it's too pinkish and dark. Anyone wants to buy/trade this? :]
And my favourite product of the haul, the lip gloss! Look at the bow on top of the cap, it's so cute. I get mesmerized by it every time I use the gloss.
On a serious note, the lipgloss not only proves to be pleasing on the outside, it's good on the inside too. This lip gloss is one of the best lip glosses that I have used so far. Now I understand when people say that sometimes, the product is so good that you don't feel like you're wearing it at all. This holds true for this lip gloss. I think I will do a review for this lip gloss soon, cause I definitely must list down all the good points of this fantastic product!
And here's the whole look, after I've put on the blush and powdered my face. Au naturale is the way to go. Ohh, btw, I'm wearing my GEO contacts cos my glasses warped out of shape that morning due to my laptop dropping on it. I only have my clumsy self to blame. =___=
Hope you guys enjoyed the entry, do leave a comment if you have any questions ok? Cheers~
