February Bath Stuff

I choose these because they have a nice and sweet smell. Its such a girly scent perfect for valentine's day.

                                                                                                

                           

Orange Vanilla Hand Creme by Kiss Me in the Garden

My aunt sent my mom this hand creme because we used to live in California and we could smell oranges. This is probably one of the best smelling hand cremes. It doesn't last too long, but the smell makes up for it. This hand creme was made in Redlands, California. It is paraben free and cruelty free. Here is a link to their website.

Honey and Cinnamon Mask

When I heard about this mask from a video Michelle Phan posted I had to try it. This mask is easy to make. Put 1tablespoon of cinnamon in a bowl then put 3 tablespoons of honey. Mix them together. It might seem like you need to add more honey in it. Don't do it because when you microwave it could explode. After mix it put it in the microwave for 30 seconds. When it is done apply it to your face with a brush. Leave it on for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes wash it off. Then moisturizer your face. That's how to make the mask. If you want to watch the video the link is down below and there is a link to Michelle Phan's website and the link to the mask. So check her website out.

December Bath/Shower Gel/Handsanitizer

I love Christmas and I can't wait for it to come. On Black Friday I went to bath and body works. I got some pocket handsanitizers. The Christmas ones are great. Iced Ginger Bread smells yummy. I really want a ginger bread cookie after I smell it. Candy Cane Bliss smells like sweet candy canes. When I was younger I would give mini candy canes to friends. Twisted Peppermint makes me think of candy canes. Candy Cane Bliss and Twisted Peppermint are pretty similar smells.

November Bath/Shower Gel/Handsanitizer

I love the handsanitizer for November. The handsanitizer Creamy Pumpkin by The Bath and Body Shop. All of my friends want to use my handsanitzer. I am also sorry for posting this a little late. The bath/shower gel for the month is Mandarin Mint by Ulta. It smells nice. I can't wait for next month because there are always great bath/ shower gels and handsanitizers for December.

Makeup for Masquerade-Eye Makeup

My friend decided for her 16th birthday party to be a masquerade. I wasn't able to find a long dress so I got a short dress. Also when I went to a Party City and Halloween City I could not find a mask that would go well with my dress. Another problem was some of the masks eye shapes were uncomfortable on my eyes. So I got a black mask and added lace to it. I wish I could have a awesome mask like Michelle Phan has. The eye makeup I am going to do is in the video below and its done by Michelle Phan.

Pink Products

It is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. I went to Wegmans and they had a deal for eos products that were pink to help support breast cancer. I got eos smooth sphere lip balm in strawberry sorbet, eos everyday hand lotion in berry blossom, and  eos ultra moisturizing shave cream in pomegranate raspberry. I have not tried any of the products except for the lip balm, but it was lemon. The lip balm smells really good. Shaving cream was a sample so I didn't get a whole can of shaving cream. I have to say one of my mom's friend was diagnosed with breast cancer. She had to have her breast tissue removed. So I hope you guys go buy out some pink products for Breast Cancer Awareness.

Sephora Le Waterproof Mascara

I like the packaging. First when I applied it I got lots of clumps on my eye lashes. I didn't keep it on for long. The wand of it was okay. All I can say that I didn't like this at all.

October Bath/Shower Gel/Hand Sanitizer

I love the smell of mango's and mandarin. I didn't find any Halloween body gel or soap. At the Bath and Body Shop they had some fall products and Halloween handsanitizer. The handsanitizer I found was Brewberry. It smells really good.

          

Benefit Magic ink Jet-Black Liquid Eyeliner

This was the first liquid eyeliner I bought. I thought it was great when the sales lady showed me it. I like how it glides on, but I find it hard to apply. I get eyeliner on my eye lashes. It does dry fast when it is applied so that is good. I usually use a different brush to apply this. Lastly I think that it if you have good control with a brush like this eyeliner you should definitely buy this.

Happy Mid Autumn Festival

I want to say happy Mid Autumn Festival to all who are celebrating it. When I was little my mother gave me and my sister lanterns and we would walk around the area we lived in. We don't do that now because we are older also we don't really celebrate it because my family isn't Chinese. My favorite moon cake is lotus flavored. I really want to try a chocolate one, but I don't think they make chocolate moon cakes. Also you guys probably don't know that I am taking Chinese at a University. Hopefully I will become fluent because I would like to move to Asia when I'm older or travel there a lot. So I painted my nails for it. I'm sure most of you have not heard of the brand Docile. I got this in Malaysia and I don't remember what store I got it from. This red is like a firetruck or candy apple. It really stands out.

Seventeen Ultimate Guide to Beauty

I just got this book today from Barnes & Noble. I'm sure this book will give some great ideas that will inspire me. I looked through it and I saw Michelle Phan. She is one of my favorite beauty gurus. I think its great that she is working at FAWN. For those of you don't know what FAWN stands for its For All Women Network. There are also lots of cute hairstyles in this that I can't wait to try. The hairstyles are categorized by if popular types of hairstyles like ponytail or buns.  You can also find some chic makeup ideas. Makeup is categorized by styles like classic. One section I like in this beauty guide is the section about you the reader. It has information on skin types and hair types. At the end it has nail ideas. I hope you guys will check it out if you think this looks cool. There are also lots of other beauty guides that you can get a bookstores.

September Bath/Shower/Hand Sanitizer

So I decide to do a bath/shower gel and hand sanitizer favorites this will be done every month. Most of the products will be from The Bath and Body Shop and some might be products that are not available because they are seasonal or because they have some more products. The Bath and Body Shop have so many cute hand sanitizers and cute pocket holders for the hand sanitizer. For this month I picked The Bath and Body Shop Sun-Kissed Berry as the favorite bath/shower gel. This smells really good and reminds me of summer. I have to admit that I am a big fan of hand sanitizer and I always have some with me. The hand sanitizer I picked was I Love Watermelon and Apple. Pocket case its has on is a panda and its so adorable.

Ulta Extreme Wear Whipped Eye Shadow

I really like this silver eye shadow. Its really pretty. It stayed on all day and was water proof. I think I like this more than the Maybelline Color Tattoo. Its shimmery, but not too glittery. I tried this on my friend and it seemed to irritated her eyes. So this may irritate some peoples eyes.

Maybelline Great Lash Mascara

I used to use this mascara a while ago. When I mean a while ago a really long time. Now I use Covergirl mascara and Fairy Drops mascara. This was very clumpy for me and didn't lengthen my lashes. All in all I didn't like this mascara. I know that some people like this but its not for me. The packaging is not appealing to me.

bareMinerals Prime Time Oil Control Foundation Primer

I originally wanted to get Imans Primer. Instead I got bareMinerals Prime Time Oil Control  Foundation Primer. I think the packaging of the product is a bit small and it could have been a bit bigger. The product itself is clear. You only need a little product to apply on your face. I felt like this did control my oils for most of the day and in the afternoon my face got a little oily. So I would probably have to use blotting sheets. Other than that the product was good.

The Body Shop Born Lippy Lip Balm

This is probably the best smelling lip balm I have ever smelled. I have Passion Berry and Raspberry. This lip balm gives a glossy look. It doesn't stay on long. The packaging is also cute.

Formula 10.06 Deep Down Detox Ultra Cleansing Mud Mask

I heard from Bubzbeauty about detoxing your face. She said that its good to detox your skin after wearing make up for a long time. It also helps remove toxins from your face. When I first applied it to my face it stung. After I washed it off my face felt smooth and nice. It also smells really nice like oranges. When I woke up the next morning my face felt smooth and it was a bit brighter.

Maybelline Color Tattoo By Eyestudio

I was looking to try some cream eye shadows and I found this. I have Bold Gold. Its a really nice gold, but I feel like I'm putting gold glitter on my eye. I wanted a gold but not with a lot of glitter. Maybe over time I might like it. For now it was just okay. It lasts very long and it doesn't crease. I still have yet to try if its water proof. Also I definitely want to try some of the other colors.

Bow-Shaped Hair Fringe

Hair fringes are really nice to have keep you hair out of your face when your applying makeup. You can also use them whenever you want to keep your hair out of your face. Pretty and Cute sells cute bow-shaped hair fringe. I have a set in teal. When your order them you get two of the same kind. If you plan on ordering bow-shaped fringe order quickly because some of the colors get sold fast.

Clinique Rinse-Off Foaming Cleanser

This cleanser removes makeup and sunscreen. I like to use this after school if I was wearing any make up. This product is for normal skin. Its nice to use, but I will not use it a lot because its for normal skin.

Silky Girl Blink Glitter Eyeliner

I love glitter, but I wouldn't necessarily wear it for school or going out unless it was for a party. In my opinion I would probably wear this glitter for a New Years party or a Christmas party. I found out about this glitter eyeliner from a friend from dance. I tried out the green first and it is really pretty, but I don't own it. I have the glitter eyeliner in gold. I wish I got the silver because silver goes with a lot of things. You have to be careful with this eyeliner because if you don't let it dry the glitter will get all over your eye lid.

Pur Minerals Mineral Glow

I don't use bronzer often, but I do use it in the summer. In the summer my skin tends to get a little darker so I still use the same foundation and just apply this bronzer on my face. This did give my face a little tanner look because my face just with foundation on in the summer looks pale. When my mother told me my face looked a bit pale I decided to put some bronzer on so I didn't look pale. I felt that this bronzer was quite hard to get on my blush brush.

Pur Minerals Chisel Brush

This brush is used to apply foundation and powder. I like the writing on the feral of the brush. It says beauty-pur and simple. The bristles of the brush are soft are soft on my face except for my forehead, because I have quite a lot of acne. I have to clean this often because I use this often when I used the Pur Minerals Pressed powder. This also is the only brush I use for foundation and powder currently. Hopefully I will go buy some brushes soon.

Elf Shine Eraser Blotting Sheets

I have heard from lots of beauty gurus about blotting sheets. So I thought that I would try them. This is my first time trying them so I hope to try other blotting sheets. I like that they absorb the oils from my face, because my face sometimes gets a little oily throughout the day.  This is very cheap and you can get it at Target.

Clinique Lash Doubling Mascara

I like the spiral wand of the mascara and I think it helps there be less clumps. I lenghten my lashes a little bit and gave a natural look. Its suppose to volumize lashes, but I didn't see it when I applied it. It's not waterproof and it will run. So its best not to wear this during the summer.

Silky Girl Juicy Fruity Brush-on Lip Gloss

The packaging is cute and stylish.The color of the lip gloss is very nice and pigmented. I have this in cherry and I smells yummy. It has a nice glossy look. The brush helps you apply the product. I don't like how you have to twist the cover to get the product out because if you twist it too much I can be hard to put the cover on so you have to twist back. It took me a while to figure out how to get the product out. It can also be hard to squeeze it out of the tube and it isn't long lasting.

Luscious Lips Tinted Lip Balm-Emma's Friends Soaps and Lotions

I bought this tinted lip balm at a craft fair. The lip balm is very moisturizing and glides on smoothly. Do not leave this out when there is steam because the label will come off. I had to tape my label back on. I have the color Kiss Me. Its a dark pink. They also have some nice soaps.

Clinique Chubby Stick Moisturizing Lip Colour Balm

I got a small size for Clinique bonus. I love the shade I got. The shade is super strawberry. It looks very natural on my lips. Its very moisturizing. This is one of my favorites. Its a bit pricey. It cost $16. There also are more colors. I have to say I wish that it would stay on longer. Other than that its great.

Urban Decay Primer Potion

The packaging of the primer is really cute and I like the color. I like that when I apply this to my eyes that the eye shadow color looks brighter on my eyes. The product is went on my eyes smoothly. I use my ring finger to apply the primer.

Purminerals Impact + Mascara

The mascara is nice. Its not waterproof. I kinda like the shape of the brush. It's also small compare to a lot of mascaras. There are not a lot of clumps in the mascara.

St. Ives Blemish Control Apricot Scrub

I have heard lots of good reviews about this product. First time I tried it made my skin soft. The grains of it are a little bit bigger than the grains of the green tea scrub. It was very easy to rinse the scrub off. The next day I noticed that my face didn't have a lot of blemishes. It also smells nice.

Pur Minerals Correcting Primer Prep & Perfect

This primer was just okay. I first applied it with a sponge and I couldn't get a lot of the product on my face. So I then used my fingers to apply it. I wish that this primer had SPF. I just got this primer when I got Pur Mineral Makeup 5 Piece Start Kit.

St. Ives Green Tea Scrub

The green tea scrub smells really good. This also is oil free. You can use this daily, but I don't use it daily. Don't use other acne products when using it because it can sting a lot. It does sting a bit when you first use it. The grains in this are very fine. Which makes it a bit hard to wash it off. I noticed that the next day that my face redness was reduced. This scrub did help a little bit with my acne.

Japonesque Brush Set Touch up Tube

These brushes are very nice and soft. There's a foundation brush, lip brush, two eye brushes, and a blush/powder brush. I think set is a good size. Good to bring if traveling. I have the touch up tube in pink. The other colors it comes in is red, silver, and black. I use the two eye brushes the most.

UNII Palette

The UNII palette is a palette that you can depot eye shadows or blush. There are other things of course you can put in. You choose what you put in there. You also can order it from Imomoko. I order mine from Imomoko because there was a deal for free shipping. I got Lavender. There also are the colors honeysuckle, turquoise, pear, crystal, and midnight. The eye shadows I put in mine were from Ulta. I was able to fit 20 eye shadows. You can also put a small brush or brushes. I tried to see if eyeliner would fit it didn't. I really like this because you can carry your favorite eye shadows.
