Mail of the Week (August 22 - 26)


My prize from Priscilla's Facebook giveaway: The prize was a MAC lipstick of my choice and of course, I absolutely didn't know which one to choose so I decided to play it safe and go for Angel as it seems to be such a staple. From the swatches on the net, I really didn't know what to expect as it seemd to look different on everyone! I was afraid it would wash me out because I'm so pale the frost finish scared me a bit, but I absolutely love it! It actually reminds me a lot of Creme Cup, which I love. Priscilla also very kindly included Ulta Mineral Powder Eyeshadow in Jade in the package.

L - R: Angel and Jade


Thank you so much Priscilla! =D


My order from AVEYOU Beauty Boutique: I was given the opportunity to test and review some products from this boutique on my blog. I placed my order on August 16, it was shipped on August 17 and I received it on August 23 - pretty quick! But I was incredibly disappointed to have had to pay more than $40 in duties and taxes, which I never ever had to do before. Anyway, I guess it was worth it? Here's what I received:

  • TS-2 Conical Barrel Style Stick Clipless Curling Iron
  • Aquolina Pink Sugar Eau de Toilette Spray 1.7 oz 50ml
  • OPI Extra-va-vaganza! Nail Lacquer

  14. Encore une fois, je suis beaucoup trop jalouse de c'que t'as eue par la poste, ahah! T'as bien fais de prendre Angel, pour vrai, c'est un must et il est très joli! Aimes-tu le Pink Sugar toi? Je l'ai trouvée au Winners en spécial il y environ 1an et je le DÉTESTE, ahah! :P Je n'aime pas du tout les odeurs sucrés comme ça pour les parfums. Pour les chandelles c'est correct mais pour vrai, il me donne mal à la tête! :P
