Haul!

One of the advantages and also a disadvantage of working in the mall is shopping. Don't get me wrong. I love shopping. But the aftermath of the money decrease in my bank account is just plain depressing. Anyway, here are the stuff that I got!



This is my favourite from all of them! Sooo cool.


5 for $10!!!


Best part about Easter being over is the HUGE sale on chocolates after. As if I didn't already have enough lol..

That was all actually (and surprisingly no makeup yayyy). I really should attempt P10P. Have any of you done it? I'd like to hear your story :)

Niagara, Bluenotes Haul, and Delicia's Birthday

As I've mentioned in my previous post, me and my family were planning to go to Niagara because it's my parents' wedding anniversary. We did end up going (we left pretty late acutally around 1ish). But we couldn't go to the buffet because it was IN the casino, which my brother and sister were not able to enter because they are not yet 19, obviously. So we ate at Shoeless Joe's instead. Here are just some pictures. There were a lot more taken but I managed to keep it at a minimum.

Look it's a rainbow! :) And yay for SLR camera's shutter speed that caught the bird flying across the rainbow. 

Yay for ugly yellow plastic raincat.

Me and Jasmine.

Fountain in the lobby of Fallsview Casino (I forgot to change shutter speed or turn on flash so sorry if it's dark).

A cool statue in front of the casino entrance.

She really likes veggies!

A HUGE cute panda on display of some toy store in Galeria.

Some Sesame Street inspired chocolate snack on a store window. Aren't they cute?

Today (Monday), I went with Mike to UTM to fix up my tuition deferral problem and ended up going to a plaza nearby called Sheridan Centre. We actually saw (well I heard only) an accident from the other side of the road. Anyway, we went to Bluenotes Outlet Store which is usually the only reasn why we go to that plaza. And boy, they had some sales! My bill came up to $76.02CAD (that's with 13% HST tax!). There were a total of 15 items. 

 

Here are pictures of what I got (I got Mike a spring jacket, tshirt, and long sleeve plaid shirt also that are not pictured because he has them now. And this also includes some other stuff for Delicia's presents that I didn't take a picture of).

At night, I went to West 50 with Alyssa and Nerissa (who came by to my house so Nerissa can paint her nails) for Delicia's birthday. There was a lack of camera there and I managed to be in one of the pictures fromher bf's camera.

Sandals Haul + Picture of the Suzy Shier Wedges + Family Trip/Mom's Birthday

I've been meaning to post this picture but I've been too lazy. :P Here are those wedges I bought from Suzy Shier for about less than $30CAD.

I love how it's perfect for this season and can match anything, especially dresses and skirts which I'm loving right now!

I bought two sandals today (finally) because honestly, I think I only have one pair of black sandals (so sad I know).

I

This is from Spring Shoes and they were regularly $39.99, and when I went there today, it was marked down to $29.98! I wasn't so sure of this one at first. But the price going down helped me with my decision. I love bargains! :) The flash washed the colour out and these are actually a lot more beige. You can get them in stores or here: http://www.myspringshoes.com/ca-eng/women/sandals/fashion-flats/68981458-schimming/36

I got this for $15 at Walmart. So cheap right? And they're decent for its price, and to be honest, Walmart isn't really the best place to buy shoes. And again, the flash washed the colour out. These are actually a bronzey-gold colour.

If you haven't noticed, I've been into shoes lately (no makeup hauls lately eh :O). And I used to have all my shoes downstairs in the closet by the door entrance of my house, along with my family's shoes (there are 6 of us btw). I would never be able to find the shoes I plan to wear, and I end up wearing the same shoes. So I grabbed all of my shoes from that closet and I was stuck with a bunch of shoes with nowhere to store them in my room. I've been searching online for a solution, but I would rather see these racks/organizers in person. I found one at Walmart for about $9 that can has 20 slots, so at least 10 pairs, but I managed to put some pairs into one slot. I still have some shoes without proper storage and the ones in this organizer are the ones that I would wear the most or are my faves.

Here are also some pictures of that trip to Niagara to go shopping that I took, which was also my mom's birthday.

This is my sister Jasmine chilling on her carseat.

Jamming to my iPod.

We watched Alvin and the Chipmunks in the van (Theodore :D)

We stopped at iHop for some late brunch. Mmm cheesecake in between pancakes with strawberry and whipped cream topping! So divine!

Then for dinner, we went to Peter's at Eglinton to celebrate my mom's birthday. They have really good souvlaki there. And seriously, for $14, look at that serving!!

I hope you guys are all well. :)

Perfect weather

Bright sun, slight wind, and sweet sago't gulaman on one hand. ♥

Look at this boy hogging all of it :(

Jasmine's back from NJ btw. Her voice changed. She sounds like she's trying too hard to sound like a baby...

My ELF order finally arrived and the stuff I bought from Sasquatch Swatch's blog sale.

I shall do a proper review of everything but that's probably gonna take a while lol... Any requests which one first?

another elf haul loool

I'm sorryyyyyyyy Jaimee!!!
LOL.
So I ordered more from eyeslipsface.com and just got my stuff in the mail today. This is by no means bragging of what I bought but for those of you out there who want to know about elf products or those of you who buy overpriced products from other brands such as Mac (ahem Rheena :P) can find out that you can get high quality products for so much cheaper. (umm I dont even know if that sentence made sense hahaha). And since I'm a loser with no life (Mike's at GI practice... -.-) I took pictures of swatches of some of them.
These are the the lip products swatches on my arm:


(L-R: Plumping Lip Glaze Ruby Kiss, Plumping Lip Glaze Baby Doll, Plumping Lip Glaze Mocha Ice, Luscious Liquid Lipstick Brownie Points, Hypershine Gloss Fairy, Hypershine Gloss Vixen, Super Glossy Lip Shine Angel)


Hypershine Gloss Fairy ($1)


Hypershine Gloss Vixen ($1)


Moisture Care Lip Color Brownie Points ($1)


Super Glossy Lip Shine SPF 15 Angel ($1)


Plumping Lip Glaze Mocha Ice ($1)


Plumping Lip Glaze Ruby Kiss ($1)


Plumping Lip Glaze Baby Doll ($1)

So my overall opinion on these new lippies are that they are all good for glosses especially the more neutral colours. I like the red ones because they actually show up on my lips while the rest just give my lips shine. The plumping lip glaze formula smells horrible (supposed to smell minty) and doesn't plump (or at least I don't notice it...). When I put it on, it's like putting a mint chapstick on it or something. The luscious liquid lipstick has the same bad smell as the plumping one. I LOVE the smell of the Hypershine glosses though. It really does smell like cotton candy!!! :D As for the Super glossy lip shine, I have 3 in other colours and the smell is okay. It's described as grape vanilla, which it does. Also, they are a bit sticky... but I guess you get your dollar's worth lol.

Eye Shadow Brush ($1)
I obviously had to get another one of this because I love it! It's great for packing on eyeshadow and you obviously can't beat the price! But my new one is longer than the my other one and the bristles are a bit pointier in the middle (i don't mean sharp but the shape of it if that makes sense... )

Glow Bronzing Powder in Luminance ($1)
This is an AWESOME highlighter. No chunks of glitter and gives great results yayyy



Concealer pencil and brush in fair ($3)
The formula on this really does cover. But it comes with this stupid sharpener cover on it and stupid me tried it and it made it so dirty. Do not use that sharpener if you want to keep it clean..



Studio Complexion Brush ($3)
The studio brushes are AMAZINGLY soft. The $1 total face brush is a lot bigger than this though but I use this to highlight above my cheekbones.


Studio Powder Brush ($3)
I've heard from Connie that this is good for stippling on foundation. I tried today and she is right! I can stipple all day because this feels so nice on my face!! LOL




Studio Contour Brush ($3)
I was expecting this to be a bit smaller than the $1 one but the $1 is a bit softer which makes it a bit harder to pack on colour.

Studio Blush Brush ($3)
I was expecting this to be a bit bigger for some reason... Like my cheeks aren't big and this seems to be a bit small for my cheeks. I hated the $1 one because it feels prickly and barely picks up any product.


Mineral Booster Large-Sheer ($8)
I had to get another one of this because I'm halfway done mine. This is a great finishing powder and the first mineral powder that does not break me out... I'm still scared to try mineral makeup though ever since my experience with Everyday minerals..


Mineral Eyeshadow Primer in Sheer ($3)
Holy begeez they didn't have this in my package and I was super annoyed. At least they have good customer service where I got someone to fix it right away.

PS. They sent me this clarifying pressed powder in tone 1 which I didn't order.. I guess they mistakenly put this one in instead of the primer.. haha oh well sucks for them. :) This pressed powder is supposed to blot oil and I guess it works?
PPS. Keep in mind that I just got these today looool. And yes I washed the brushes before using them. Do NOT ever use brushes without washing them first, no matter where you bought them from (elf, sephora, mac etc).
