Box #1 of Sasa Haul + Giveaways

I have a habit of browsing through my favorite beauty webpages for newly added items whenever I am bored... I know that this habit is really bad for my wallet! But one day when I went to the Sasa site, I saw something that reminded me of Shanghainese Dumpling so I started adding things to my cart to get the free shipping...

These Body Scrubs by Creer Beaute reminded me of the Bihada Ichizoku Sheet masks that Ena uses. Aren't the packaging cute? The yellow is the Versailles Rose Duchesse de Polignac Body Srub in Honey, pink is the Versailles Rose Antoinette Body Scrub in Rose, purple is the Versailles Rose Madame du Barry Body Scrub in Grape, and the blue is the Versailles Rose Oscar Body Scrub in Clear Marine.

L-R: @Nature (BeautyEasy) Lily & Jamine Peptides Lifting Eye Creme, Kose Clearturn Q10 Eye Mask, and a Nivea Hand Whitening Intensive Care (texture is like lotion).

The (L) Makeup Sponge is by Three Pretty. I got 2 Kose VISEE Eye Color in GD005 and PU104. I got a free Sasa nail file.

I also got 2 packages of this Suzuran Attirer Puff (but only one pictured).

I want to show one of my favorite Korean Snacks!! It's a cake with strawberry and raspberry filling!!! Yummy!! It has been months since my local H-Mart got them back in stock...

Update:
I will be going away again tomorrow and prob won't be back until Sunday. Will be away internet-less again... I'm almost sweating at the thought of it... Haha. I will be alright. My parents are coming back from China this Saturday and my brother and I will have to go to JFK again to pick them up.

When I get back, I will do a review of the Laneige Strawberry Yogurt Pack. I have been using for a while now so I will let you ladies know my opinion. :)

ELF Haul

So I joined the bandwagon and placed an order with Eyes Lip Face with the 75% off the Studio Line. What kind of sucks is that I couldn't get the free shipping ($6.95) to work and I got charged tax because of the state that I live in... I still saved though with the 75% off. Anyways, I got my order today and another incident with my local USPS.... Grr....



Custom e/s in Wisteria (left) and Creme de Violet (MAC). The E.L.F. e/s actually fit in my MAC palette and it came with a magnet. I chose this because it was recommended in magazines and it is a lilac/lavender which I love. I do not like any items from the regular elf line except for some makeup brushes.

Swatch of Wisteria. Pretty!! Love!!!



Studio Single Eyeshadow in Sand Dollar, Butter Cream, Amethyst & Charcoal.

L-R: Sand Dollar, Wisteria, Charcoal, Amethyst. I do not like the 2 dark colors. Charcoal looks like ash on me and the other, eggplant.... ew.....

L is Butter Cream. It is so pretty!! I don't know if it can be seen in the picture but it is shimmery pale yellow. I love it!!

Studio Eyelash Curler and the Mini Eyelash Curler... Nothing special so I'm not going to take another picture of the actual item.


Studio Contouring Blush and Bronzing Powder. Some people are saying it is similar to Nars and some says not. I got this because it was cheap.

Under dim daylight.


Studio Golden Bronzer. I have not decided if I am going to keep this or not so I did not do swatches.



Studio Blush in Tickled Pink.
Swatch. Nothing spectacular to me... Just another pink blush.

Don't really feel like taking individual pictures of each brush but I got 2 Eyeshadow C brush, a Complexion brush, a Powder brush, a Angled Foundation brush, a Contour brush (i don't know why but the package also says dome brush), a Concealer brush, a Small Angled brush, a Blush brush, and a Kabuki Face brush. I didn't get Fan brush and the Kabuki body.

I found this kind of funny. The brown was labled ivory and the medium on the the package is a peachy pink instead of a nude.

Urban Decay Mini Haul

Urban Decay recently had a friends and family sale on their website so I got a few items. I only intended to buy UDPP in Sin and fill in the rest of the order with "things" for free shipping... The regular price of the Ammo palette is $36 and the set I got was $39. So now I have an extra... I actually never got to swatch Sin because my local Sephora never had a tester out on display until after I bought the regular formula. However, I wanted it after Ena swatched it. :D

Clockwise starting from left: Ammo Plus Primer Set, 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in Zero, Eyeshadow Primer Potion in Sin, Foreshadow Palette.

Foreshadow Palette




My daily face has been very simple because of the horrible heat/humidity here. I really got tired of melting but I will have to try to do some EOTD/FOTD soon once it's a bit cooler... I bought so many e/s palettes recently but have not really used them (except for swatches if I did swatches)... The hubby is really complaining now!
