A Few New Gets

Got a few things online:


  • Lioele Glittering Jewel  Pencil in Brown
  • Etude House Color in the lighter shade
  • Etude House Touch Touch Cream Shadow Liner in Vanilla
  • Etude House Silk Scarf Shampoo and Conditioner
  • Etude House Dress Room Sweet Look Body Wash and Sweet Look Body Lotion
  • Etude House Petit Bijou Cotton Snow Moisture Body Lotion

The tubes are all minis (30 ml). I love buying minis because full-sized products just get wasted on me. I get tired of using the same old thing for too long and this gives me a reason to buy new stuff right away. ^^

I had a chance to try the Silk Scarf stuff before and liked it. I had a set of the shampoo, condition and hair treatment in sample sachets/envelopes. The products have a nice raspberry smell, but I'm not sure how great they are for regular use. I'll let you know when I'm done with it.

Some samples and freebies:


  • Nature Republic Aqua Combination Watery Cream
  • Skin Food Quinoa Rich Body Milk
  • Charcoal Essence Mask from MJCare (freebie)
  • "The History Of" BB Cream   (freebie)
  • Innisfree Almond Sugar Scrub   (freebie)
My sample collection's growing. They've become what stickers and stationery used to be for me in my grade school days. (I try not to use the stuff I don't have doubles of, haha.)

I've never heard of the brands of the sheet mask and the bb cream the seller kindly included in my freebies. She put in some other free samples, too but I already had them so I just gave them to my sister (who likes samples as  much as me.)

I promise, I will get around to review all the stuff I've been meaning to eventually.  Just stay tuned!

Thanks for reading, 
Jackie

Minis and Samples Save the Day!

There are a zillion products out there I want to try. This wouldn't be a problem if 1) money grew on trees and 2) I used up everything I bought, because I really do hate letting stuff go to waste.

Unfortunately, I have ADD when it comes to prods. Unless it really wows, I won't have the attention span to finish a full-sized container of stuff. There are times when I obsess about products day in and day out- until I get them, then I forget about them completely.

My solution: think small. I like to get mini versions and samples of stuff I want to try just to get them out of my system. Or get the full-sized version next time.
I recommend this approach for choosing bb creams as well. I still haven't given up on these, but there are so many to choose from. They all sound so promising but like with other types of products, I know that only a handful would suit me.

Here's the latest batch of goodies I got:
 
MINIS:
 L-R:
Baviphat AC Therapy Sleeping Pack
Lioele Beyond the Solution BB Cream
TonyMoly Tony Tint


SAMPLES (by brand): 

Lioele

2 pcs. 3D Skin Fix Foundation
Secret Pore Rich Balm
Dollish Veil Vita BB
2pcs 3D Skin Fix Makeup Base
Beyond the Solution BB Cream
Triple the Solution BB Cream

Super Secret BB
Gold Caviar BB
Mineral Magic BB
Control Skin BB

Missha


Choboyang BB Cream
Wrinkle Filler
Signature BB Cream

Skin79
Hot Pink Super BB Cream 

Baviphat Mango Steam Scrub

The seller included this in my package as a freebie, which is great because it looks really interesting. So happy!

I know some people don't like the idea of having to buy samples when they should be free. I'm actually glad that some people have made these available without having to make HUGE purchases first. I'm really excited to try these one by one and give my feedback, Stay tuned!


P.S. 


King of 25,000 Megawatt Smile asked me to post a pic of NYX Pink Lyric on my lips. LOL, Sorry this was all I could come up with on short notice. (I used my netbook webcam) I'll try again when I'm fully made up.
