Where my money went

By Malin, March 2, 2010 22:55

Lush & The Body Shop

As you can see on the image, that’s were my money went. I just had to go to The Body Shop to smell on their new Sweet Lemon products. So of course, the Sweet Lemon Whip Body Lotion had to be bought! While I was there I decided to join their club, so I got a discount, a sample of the Aloe Soothing Day Cream (it doesn’t smell good at all, it’s like a combination of exhaust gas and car oil!), a sample of the LOVE ETC fragrance, a free makeup consulting and a “buy 3 pay for 2″ deal. Not sure if it was the smartest thing to do since I hardly buy anything at TBS. Oh well.

I also got a package from Lush in the mail. I only have a tiny piece left of my all time favorite face cleanser Baby Face, so I ordered a new one. I also got Mask of Magnaminty cleansing mask, it smells lovely! (I’ve already tried it and I really like it!) At last I got a free sample of the Therapy massage bar. I’ve read that it’s really great for very dry skin, I’m looking forward to try it out!

Barry M Dazzle Dust
Yesterday I received some Barry M Dazzle Dust samples from IaMias. Cherry Red, Neon Pink, Candy, Gold, Lime, Pink Gold and Block Blue. So many amazing colors!

I did a fast (as in not properly blended and all that!) eye make up with Gold and Lime (and “Yellow” from Ninja Minerals under the lower lashes and wing), with UDPP as a base. For the eyebrows I used the Eyebrow Lifter And Filler (both sides) from ELF (not a big fan of that one though). Sorry for the crappy pictures, I was in a hurry and used and old digital camera ;).

Shades from Viva La Diva

By Malin, December 20, 2009 22:21

I’m using 4 shades from Viva La Diva’s Highpearl Eyeshadow Collection! The colors in the palette are really pretty but I find it hard to work with their weird consistency, they easily become sandy so you really have to press them against the eyelid. Or perhaps it’s just mine ;).

Dear Santa

By Malin, November 23, 2009 22:33

Dear Santa, this year I would like to have a pair (or two) of Dr. Martens boots from their limited collection from the game Band Hero. They should be in size 37 (UK size: 4). Either the black ones or the white ones (or both).
Please?

Lovie Nail Polish Goes Down The Trash

By Malin, November 13, 2009 22:07

H&M Enchantress EmmaRemember when I blogged about the Lovie Nail Polish I bought that was so good? Well strike that because when I opened it today it was very sticky, like it was very old. So down the trash can it went!

I bought a new one from H&M instead, Enchantress Emma – it’s baby blue! So lovely! (Image borrowed from CCee)

And since I wanted to give myself a early Christmas gift, I bought Viva La Diva’s Highpearl Eyeshadow Collection! I got 50 SEK off so 109 SEK not much for all those amazing colors! I should probably mention that is is from  the Christmas 2008 collection. I don’t think I need to buy more eyeshadows for quite some time now ;)

Image of the palette borrowed from Bjooti. I got the swine-flu shot 3 days a go and my arm hurts like hell so I haven’t bothered to use my own camera ;)
