Finals season is seriously killing me. But I better not even mention it...
So, I'm really happy to share another Swap I did with the amazing Shayne from Queen Of All You See , although this time was quite different because we actually knew what we where going to send each other. Nonetheless, I'm really happy with our swap and I would repeat it again and again without thinking twice.
Now, anyone who knows me well knows that I am proud geek and specially, a proud Potterhead. You can all imagine my hapiness when I opened the packaged and saw that amazing wrapping!! I couldn't contain myself!! I had to be super carefull with the unwrapping because I wanted to have as much as possible. Thank you, Thank you Shayne!!
Shayne is one of the sweetest persons I know and I feel really blessed to call her my friend. <3 And please, be sure to visit her blog to see what she got and say hello! Her blog is amazing and deserves all the love!
Starting with something that was on top of my wishlist, the Shu Uemura Lash Curler was a must-ask. We don't have Shu Uemura here (SHAME) and as far as I know, Shiseido doesn't carry their lash curler here either (DOUBLE SHAME) and I needed a good lash curler like...ASAP. Mostly because the one I had was quite old and the shame was just wrong. With this I can curler my lashes...like all of my lashes and it doesn't just, I don't pull skin...it's just perfect!
I know that it's a bit pricey but I think it's justified. Just like brushes, a good lash curler can make a huge difference.
Next, the Etude House Dear My Wish Lipstik in PK003. I don't know, can we ignore the gorgeous and cute packaging? I think we can't...and yes, at first that's what made me ask for this...until I tried it out and ended up buying another 3 shades online because this formula is just perfect.
It's super creamy and has a bit of glossiness to it, but with time that wears off and leaves a stain without feeling dry or uncomfortable. I dare to say that I like this more than my M.A.C. lispticks...and it's M.A.C , what can't we like about it?
This particular shade is just perfect. It's a really bright pink with a hint of red, which makes it just amazing for any time of the year. You can see me wearing it here and I have to say that I am currently controlling myself to not get another 4 shades, specially their nudes. Especially when I want to get one or two of their new liquid lipsticks.
Do I need more lipsticks? Not really. Does it matter? Not really.
More Etude House? Of course! Meet the Etude House Color Lips-fit , also known as the most comfortable liquid matte lipsticks you'll probably find. I've worn these a lot, specially as tints for a gradient lips - we can use them like that too - and I even ordered another shade that surprisingly looks nice on me ( I'm sorry, but it's just strange when Orange looks good on me, well done Etude!)
PK002 Silhouette Fit Pink is a really Bright and Neon-like pink that I'll rock durinh this summer for sure. It's just one of those shades that makes me happy just by looking at it.
PK003Fantasy Fit Pink has a hint of orange in it and it's also quite bright but I don't really mind it because surprisingly looks quite good on me.
RD301 Perfect Fit Red is a classic red although not as dark as it appears. It's really classic and I think I'll for sure choose this bad boy for an upcoming event.
Have I mentioned how I've been looking for the perfect mascara and how I love the Korean formulas? After my good experience with the VMV mascara, I wanted to try something else.
Everyone seems to love the Etude House Lash Perm All Shockcara Mascara and I decided to give it a try. I never had a mascara with such wand and so far I like it, I can actually feel my lashes being "brushed" with this mascara.
I'm still curious about other mascaras, like the Holika Holika Magic Pole Mascara or the Japanese mascaras from Majolica Majorca and Fairy Drops but so far, I really like this one. At least doesn't irritate my eyes and doesn't make me want to scratch me eyes off - looking at you maybelline.
And lastely but not least, Shayne sent me also a sample size of the Etude House Pearl Aura essence - I've tried it and I think it breaks me out...which is sad because I wanted to get an essence but I don't want to spend 40$ on a bottle from Missha...any recommendations?
And the Mug cover <3 I mean...I IT'S CUTE AND IT HAS A PINK BOW !! I'm currently using it to decorate one of my cups on my vanity. It's just too pretty and I love to look at it.
Again, thank you Shayne for all the amazing gifts!
