November Updates 2013 (small haul)

YES! Classes are almost over! but then the final exams begin... lol

Not many food photos this month O_O lol

 I got this on sale! ^__^

I bought this at Top Shop! Originally the price was $84, My friend bought a very similar denim jacket for like $60 huhuhu... I got this for $24! and I got an additional 10% off because I'm a student ^__^ I bought it a few sizes bigger than me because I like the "boyfriend" fit. Plus I really like the light wash on this since its winter and everyone is wearing dark colors it creates a nice contrast for my outfits if I'm wearing dark clothes underneath.

 I've been eyeing these!

I saw these earlier in the month at H & M when I went shopping with my friend and I was pretty unsure about these so we went around trying to find something better. For some reason I've been really into platform shoes lol, They make me look so tall! and some don't have a horrible dip in them that make your feet hurt. 

The reason why I was unsure about these was because they're suede and I wanted a leather shoe but for like $50 it's a pretty good deal. I thought to myself "if they have my size then I'll go buy them" basically leaving it to fate lol, since the H & M in the downtown area is so busy I can barely find my size sometimes (shoe size 6-6.5) and these were the last ones! AND! I knew someone wanted these because they buried them waaaay in the back and covered it in clothes so no one can find them LOL but yeah I got them! WHAT NOW!? lol

 I've been wearing sparkle nails lately

Tis the season! Its basically the winter season! and I love how festive and sparkly all the decorations are so I've been wearing sparkle nails lately, I've gotten a few compliments from strangers on these -___-' lol.

 My lips are super dry!

I've graduated to a larger Vaseline jar lol. I don't think this is as effective as a super moisturizing chapstick lol but I was using this as a lip balm since I had that wind burn a while back and Vaseline healed that up but I find my lips aren't as moisturized >.<

 Been lovin this new Pokemon! lol

I got this as a gift from my friend. Basically he has the X version and he wanted the pokemon from this version LOL! But its a pretty addicting game, I think I beat the pokemon league after like a week of playing lol. Its different from the original game (red, blue, yellow, etc) but still familiar, you know?

Simple scented candles

Covers the stink in the room.. lol! I've been really enjoying vanilla scented things recently for some reason, it makes everything in the room smell good. I got this one at Ikea for like $2 lol and it lasts quite a while so I think its worth it plus it comes in a little glass, so extra cups! lol

 The weirdest smelling quiche

As soon as I heated this up and sniffed it, it smelled like fish O..O what was in it? Goat cheese, spinach and artichoke... lol I guess it was the smell of the cheese. It tasted alright.. lol

 Dayre

Nature Republic: Rice Mask Sheet

Given By Nature

Rice Mask Sheet

(I think they meant sheet mask?)

I'm actually surprised at the quality that this sheet mask is. I've gotten some really crappy sheet masks before from Etude House and The Face Shop before so I was expecting the same quality. Well I guess they're not that crappy but I prefer the thinner sheet mask over the thicker ones because I think that the thicker ones fall apart more easily and they dry out faster.

With that being said these ones are almost similar to the ones from My Beauty Diary in terms of quality but I still think that the My Beauty Diary ones are slightly better (but that's just my opinion, feel free to make your own judgements)

Anyways my skin hasn't been doing too well lately. I think I said something about it in a previous post but its a lot better now. It was dry, red and had little lumps underneath my skin but most of it has cleared up I think a few more days and it'll be all good but I think this mask has helped quite a bit.

What Do I Think Of This Product?

Like most rice masks its supposed to brighten the skin. This mask is unscented and well soaked in the serum plus its thinner than some masks from other Korean beauty companies.

When I put it on it kind of burned o_O but that could just be because my skin has been a little more sensitive than usual. Personally when my skin is dry and red I put on a sheet mask because it just soaks into the skin and absorbs really well, so I highly recommend it over a sleeping pack mask or wash off pack mask.

Doesn't stick on as well as the My Beauty Diary ones

After I took it off and rubbed the serum into my skin and it absorbed it still felt a little sticky and it felt oily too and it made my skin shiny too. I generally don't put on moisturizer or anything after I use a sheet mask because I think that sheet masks already are super soaked in a nutritious serum that I don't need to slather on more products onto my face but that's just me especially if the mask makes my face feel greasy.

But today when I woke up and after I washed my face, my skin felt really smooth and soft also it was less red so I would buy again.

Where Can You Get This Product?

Sasa actually has this one! lol for $1.50 which is what I paid for at the actual Nature Republic store in Hawaii.

I actually couldn't find it on Ebay or Amazon but they do have The Face Shop one available for $2 without paying for shipping.

So I think your best bet is Sasa in terms of price but I suggest buying other items too because you'll have to pay for shipping otherwise O_O

On a random note...

 This has nothing to do with it but here's a random photo of my nails LOL Ashley thinks they look weird O_O

Sally Hansen: Hard As Nails Xtreme Wear Nail Color

Time for Spring time colors!

I bought these nail polishes back in November on Black Friday for like $2.64 (current price $2.49) from Target. I've gotten $2 nail polishes from Daiso before and they were really un-pigmented and you had to put on a few coats to actually see the color properly -__-' so I was pretty hesitant on buying these.

I had my doubts with Sally Hansen nail polishes because I see tons of beauty gurus on youtube raving about O.P.I nail polishes so I was like these are going to suck butt >.< but to my surprise these are actually really good! Plus SUPER AFFORDABLE!!!

I have to warn you all now, I SUPER SUCK at painting my nails lol, I have shaky unsteady hands so I always fuck them up lol, but I just grab a cotton swab and dab it in some nail polish remover and voila! semi-normal! lol

Yep can't color between the lines

This is pre-cotton swabbed nails lol

I usually put on two coats but one will definitely do and it does take some time to dry (at least for me) I always forget to wait for them to dry so I end up knocking things and denting them o_O but I definitely want to get more of these! But I'm going to use up what I have before I purchase new ones because I don't want them to get messed up plus I bought a whole bunch from The Face Shop and Nature Republic I haven't tried yet.

Where Can You Get This Product?

As I mentioned in the Black Friday Haul post I got these at Target but you can get them at any local drugstore with a beauty section really.

In Canada they have them at Shoppers Drug Mart, London Drugs, Pharmaprix (for those of you in Montreal) its $3.50 here or something. (Target is opening in Canada soon! but I don't expect US prices so I'm still going to buy from the US stores lol)

I'm not sure if they have Sally Hansen products abroad I think they do... somebody let me know!
