Skin Food Haul

I went out for dinner last night. Due to the rush hour traffic I decided to head to the mall and burn a few hours there than being stuck inside the car. I knew from the moment he decided to do this that this wont do good for me..or the other way around..hahahha.. because I might end up buying things again.. I really can't help it! We passed by the Skin Food Store and of course I cannot be there and not go inside to check some products.. I have been eyeing to get their Salmon Dark Circle Cream Concealer for some time now and I haven't been to a mall were Skin Food Store was available. I remember that my moisturizer is almost out so I thought of trying a moisturizer from Skin Food since it's natural and it might do well for my very sensitive skin. The lady from the store recommended the Parsley and Mandarin Cream for troubled skin. She told me that she has been using the same product plus their Tea Tree Toner also for troubled skin. Okay you might wonder why I prefe...

Sorry for the poor quality of pictures on this one, Dan already packed all the small electronics  we have in one box including the camera and he wont let me open it :P So I used my iPhone to take them..  As what I've mentioned on some of my previous blogs, we are moving to a new flat soon that's why a lot of packing are being done :)  Please check my previous email for the list of products :) This Wishing Well blush is my freebie for this set of order.

The makeup that I can't live without..and a little ELF product review

Call me a cheapskate but I love these $1 Water proof eyeliner pens from ELF. They are very easy to use and very cheap. It glides very easily on my upper lids and I think for those people who have trouble keeping their hands from shaking when lining the eyes, this is the product to use.  The colors are really pigmented and I can make the perfect cat eye with it. See I have all the available colors and I love every single one of them.. Reviewing some of the ELF products, I can say that this one of my favorites. They do make good quality makeup for such a low price. But of course, you need to check the reviews before you purchase products from them 'coz not all are that good. Some could be really really good and some could be not. I actually breakout from their face products except for the Mineral Booster, the only face product that I use from ELF. I will be making more reviews of their products specially the ones that I use everyday, just hang in there :) CIAO!

I got one of each, the 88 Piece Matte & Satin Palette, the 88 Piece Shimmer Palette and the 88 Piece Warm Palette.. I made some looks, my own version of course, using them. My stash includes the following: -88 Piece Original Matte and Satin Palette -88 Piece Warm Palette -88 Piece Shimmer Palette -Tru Black Gel Liner (Black) -Truffle Gel Liner (Dark Brown) The 88 Piece Matte and Satin Palette:                                                                    The 88 Piece Warm Palette: The 88 Piece Shimmer Palette: CIAO!

My weekend stash

I was out last Thursday night and I though of getting a makeup remover since I'm almost out of it.. and I also got some NYX Round Lipsticks and Lipgloss. Price : 25Aed (about $6.5) for 125ml bottle Review:  I tried it when I got home to remove my eye makeup. I used a facial tissue and I can say that it works as good as my Clinique eye makeup remover. The two nyx round lipsticks I got.. Frappucino and Perfect.. With Flash The Swatches: The first one is Perfect, its a little orange like a coral shade, its pretty. Then the second one is the Frappucino, and its a nice color for everyday look and of course the lipgloss I got was the last color from this swatch. Without the Flash I think that difference between the two colors are more visible on this swatch. CIAO!
