Beauty tip

So, I havd been thinking of different ways to use some of my products. I came up with an unique way to use a colour eye liner. I have an Avon glimmerstick in plum. Very pretty colour but I hardly use it. So i've stated to use it as a cream eyeshadow. Works great as an crease colour.

Only down side is, it doesn't last as long as a normal eyeshadow. But at least I'm getting some use out of this eye liner.

Here is some pics

Unexpected mini haul

So I was at Sears today just looking around. No plan to buy anything. Then I saw a table with a lot of stuff and 50% off sign. So I had to see what is on the table. To my surprise it was Cake products and H2O products.

I read carefully and the sign said 50% of the lowest ticketed price. OMG I had to see if there was anything I wanted. I could have gotten more but stopped myself.

I grabbed 3 things.
Cake -milk made velveteen hand cream
Orig price $18, ticket price $9, payed $4.50

Then I got two H2O products
H2O Aqualibrium de-stress marine gel mask
Orig price around $25, ticket price $15, payed $7.50

H2O oasis hydrating booster
Orig price around $50, ticket price $21, payed $10.50

There was a lot of cake gift sets and shower gels. I decided try these for now.

They told me Sears is removing these product line that's why they are on sale.

Check your local sears maybe you can get them on discount too

Fake Urban Decay on ebay

So two days ago, I used my sisters Urban Decay Naked pallet and loved it. Yesterday I looked into the price at Sephora ($60 CND) so I started looking at ebay to see if I can save a few dollars. I came across a few sellers where the price was high, not much savings there.

THEN I came across a seller that had it for less then $40 with free shipping, I was like OMG such an amazing deal. I read the post (I always do before I bid anything) and the seller stated not to ask if this is an authentic Urban Decay product, since they get it from a wholesaler and doesn't know. Alarm bells went off.

Could there be fake Urban Decay Naked pallet like there is fake MAC products? The answer is yes, there can be :(

I came across a few youtube video showing fake Naked pallet and Naked pallet 2. Like the MAC ones they look almost the same but not the same quality.

No no ebay deal for me, I'm hoping to go to the states soon, then I'll pick one up.

Just a warning of anyone look into Urban Decay Naked pallet on ebay, there is a lot of fakes out there.

So glad I didn't bid of any. 

Note: this video is not mine, but I though it was helpful. Youtube user : simply2fine

June empties

This month was a hard one, since I had very few things that was close to being finished. I managed to finish these items.

I finished:
Lush bath bomb ickle baby bot
Lush retread conditioner
Mac lip gloss
A body scrub from Yves rocher

I hope next moth is better.

 

Let me give you a few information about these products. I posted this blog really quickly so I didn't give to much details before.

I liked the Abricot scrub by Yves Rocher until the end. Near the end it smelled really strong of herbs and wasn't as sweet. I didn't like using it to much when it smelled bad. But normally it was a nice sweet sent. I have a lot of scrubs, so won't buy this one any time soon.

The retread conditioner was really good, I used it as a deep conditioner. Not sure if I would buy it again, just because of the price tag.

The Ickle bath bomb was really nice, turned the water blue and smelled really good. I think I'll buy it again.

The MAC lip gloss (3D glass) in Synched Up, was a really nice peachy coral colour. I liked it a lot. This was one of my first lip gloss from MAC. It took forever to finish. I know it look like there is more product, but its all stuck on the side and I can't get it out. I also heard that if you take the stopper off then you can't back to mac it. Let me know if that's true or not? I don't think I can get this colour again, I believe it was limited edition. 

Anyways, I'll see what I can finish next month. I don't have to many things that is low anymore, so its getting harder to finish products.

Bath and body works Semi-annual sale

Hi, yes I got a bit haul crazy again. Funny thing is I wasn't going to go to this sale, cause I wanted to use up my other products but I couldn't help my self. I tried not to get too much, hahaha. I went to the sale yesterday (June 26).

Oh I noticed from seeing youtube video that the Canadian sale is different from the US one. They seem to have a lot more items that is 75% off while, we only get 50%. Anyone one else see that?

 It was one heavy bag to carry around ;)

I stated with the soap since they were only $3 each. I got two kitchen lemon, gave one to my mother in law. Then I got the coconute lime, and it smells amazing, i'm going to see if I can get a shower gel or lotion. And finally I got the peach bellini.  

I wanted to get the coconut one but they where all out. I also wanted to get the Bali mango shower gel but they where all out also. I grabbed the lotion. Haven't tried it before, but smells good.

Since only during this sale does the original scents come out, i had to grab a few. I wanted to get the exotic coconut lotion, but they where all out. I already have the body spray for both of these scents.

 I never tried the be enchanted before, but it smelled really good and looks so pretty, so I decided to give it a try.

These where at the front counter, the orange lotion was only $2 and the peach was only $1.

 I went mostly to get home scent, and was disappointed with the limited stock. There was only two scents for the scent portable, the sweet cinnamon pumpkin and mind chocolate. I'm not a big fan of chocolate scented things, so I got this one. 

I might go to another location next week and see if I can get more home scents, and different items. I want pretty late in the sale yet its still only 50% off, I hope the price drops soon and goes down to 75%. But there is only 1 week left.

Let me know what you got from the sale?

So, its end of June and all the semi-annual sale is here. I never got a chance to go to the Victoria Secret sale before. So I had to go check it out. I got a few things that I wanted to try. Here is my haul.

So I just got a few things only, didn't go cray. All makeup was 50% off, so it was good time to try things

 

 I really wanted to try this concealer, so glad I got it 50% off. 

 I got a free lip gloss at christmas with my purchase, and since then I wanted to get more. They are normally buy 3 for $10, but at the sale they where around $3 each. So I grabbed two of them. R to L: Mocktail Hour and ShineBerry.

 Also I never tried their lipstick but hear a lot of good things about them. I decided to get the pinky brown shade, called Big Kiss

 Finally when I saw this I had to get it, its their eyeshadow pallet. It's called Fearless, from the Bold Sparkle sexy collection. I love the colours. I haven't played with them yet. 

























This was my VS haul. I love to see what you got from the sale.
