Haul: Beauty, Nailpolish, Haircare, Skincare & Candles

Hi lovelies! So, yesterday I went shopping out of town! They have tons of stores we don't have, beauty-wise and clothing-wise! So it's always a bliss shopping there.

Sephora: This is actually the most I've bought at Sephora in one day. There's ALOT of things I want, trust me. I wanted to buy a palette, but since I bought the Naked Basics a few weeks ago, I thought that it was a bit unnecessary for the moment. So I've picked out more things that I've been meaning to try for a while.

1. Sephora by OPI nailpolish/top coat in Only Gold for Me: This is a gold glitter top coat, with different sizes of glitter.

2. Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion: This is actually the first full-size UDPP that I buy! I had a small version of it with my Naked palette. I never got around to buying a full size but I did yesterday and I'm so happy about that.

3. Sephora instant moisturizer: My skin has been so dry lately so I'm trying the perfect moisturizer, hopefully this is a good one.

4. Origins Drink Up 10 minute mask to quench skin's thirst: I've been wanting to try Origins products for a while, they are so popular on the blogosphere. I've been wanting to try the Overnight version of this, but for some reasons, it was not at my Sephora. The person said that it was great and so did the reviews online so I'm happy to see if this will cure my dry skin!!

5. Buxom Big & Healthy Lip Cream in Creamsicle: So many people raves about Buxom lip creams (esp. Creamsicle), so I knew I had to have it (can you say make-up addict? oops.) It tingles, plumps and shines.

6. Duo Eyelash Adhesive: I started practicing applying false eyelashes a few weeks ago and this is known being the best eyelash glue and I needed one, perfect timing right?
(Don't mind my chipped nails, need to redo them asap. Btw, if you're wondering it's Bahama Mama by Essie.)
As you can see, it's pretty peachy/coral color.

The next things I bought them at a haircare/hairdresser/cosmetic counter. Not Sephora, but I'm not sure if it's a local business so I won't mention it. But here's what I bought: 
1. Macademia Healing Oil Treatment: I needed a new oil for my hair. Since Macademia is a really good brand, I felt like this a worth a try!

2. Macademia Deep Repair Masque: So happy I finally got my hands on this. This is such a great product!
OPI Nail polish in Mod about you: You can't really see it in the picture. But it's a light pink with blue undertones, kinda? It's super gorgeous in the bottle, I hope it will be as gorgeous on my nails and not be a bad experience like all my other light pink nail polish.

I'm obsessed with Bath & Body Works candles. I bought two small ones: Market Peach and Strawberry! They have the best smell, I can't even describe it.

Hope you all enjoyed my haul!

February favorites

Hi lovelies! I'm kinda late with my February favorites, but better late than never, right? So, this month of February was an important month for me- I turned 20 on the 1st! On the other side, I did not experiment with beauty products all that much but I still want to show you some of my favorites! So, let's go!

Maybelline Color Tattoo Metal in Inked in Pink:
In the pot, it may seem a bit scary. Honestly, I was a bit scared cause I thought: "I don't wear that kind of pink eyeshadow", but then I tought of Sin of the Urban Decay Naked Palette and I heard that it was a great duo with Wet N' Wild Walking on Eggshells. (which is also one of my favorite) It's a light frosted pink/rose gold/champagne color, it's super gorgeous. Believe it or not, you can actually get a pretty neutral look with this, which is what I love.

Wet N Wild eyeshadow trio in Walking on Eggshells:
As I said, this is a great duo with the color tattoo in Inked in pink. Or it can also be great on it's own. It's great for an everyday look. For the quality and the pigmentation, you can't go wrong with how much you pay for this. It's just an overall amazing little palette.


Maybelline The Rocket Volum' Express Mascara:
This is a great volumising mascara. Some people LOVE it, some people HATE it. But I think it's great and one of my favorite at the moment. I have a review on this mascara which you can check out here.

Essence Cherry Blossom Girl Blush in Asian Sensation:
This is a great everyday blush, it gives you a natural and fresh complexion look.

Essence Cherry Blossom Girl Highlighter:
This might be one top my Benefit Highbeam highlighter. It's a pinky color. It gives a GREAT glow which I what I really love about this product. I'm sad that this isn't in their permanent lines, because it's really great.

Essence Cherry Blossom Girl Quattro Eyeshadow in Under a cherry tree:
I've been loving the two neutral eyeshadows on the right; they are super glowy, pigmented and blendable!
