I put myself on a shopping ban for the month of March.
I failed on day 1.
Then I tried to justify it by saying February was really short so day 1 doesn't count. But then I went out and bought stuff on day 3. SUPER FAIL.
Trying again in April...
But I'm super excited about the things I got! A lot of the stuff I bought is because Rhonda of .dotlash had mentioned them in her February favourites and her recent haul. Her videos & blog posts are bad for my wallet (Haha, just kidding Rhonda!! <3). First were these Loreal Infallible 24 Hour Eyeshadows. Great reviews on YouTube about these but every time I went to a drugstore, the testers were always so gross and unappealing. Rhonda talked about how amazing they were and then they were on sale at London Drugs for $5.99 when reguarly they were +$10 so I had to try them out.
I love Hourglass Beige. It's a perfect everyday lid colour. The other colour I picked up was Permanent Khaki because I love wearing greens and this one is absolutely gorgeous. I do find them a little hard to apply but still amazing. The little plug that it comes with is annoying though.
Revlon Lip Butters which I have talked about before. Picked up some other colours: Cupcake, Strawberry Shortcake and Cremesicle (because of Rhonda again!)
Left to right: Strawberry Shortcake, Cupcake and Milani Eyeliner
Cremesicle not shown because my friend picked it up for me while she was in the states (thank you!!) and I haven't seen her yet.
My friend, Simon went to Hong Kong recently and I asked him to pick up the Missha M Perfect Cover BB cream because I have heard amazing reviews on this. Although a bit pricey (~$35CAD), it's completely worth it. I am IN LOVE with this product. A more in-depth review will come shortly. Thanks Simon!
Milani Liquif'eye Eyeliner. I have heard amazing things about this eyeliner but it's super hard to find in Canada. FINALLY found one at Superstore. So smooth and creamy, probably the blackest black I have ever found and at $5.99 you can't go wrong with it. Unfortunately for my oily and watery eyes, I get raccoon eyes after about 5 hours.
Wet & Wild Single Eyeshadow in creme brule. I can't get enough of W&W products, great quality products for crazy prices. This colour is way too close to my skin tone though so I use it as a blending colour.
Revlon Nail Polish in Sparkling. Super pretty but I realize it's quite similar to my Essie Cut in Stone.

I forgot to take this photo when I was taking photos for this post... and then I got too lazy to take the photo and upload it to my computer, then to this blog. Yea, I'm pretty lazy sometimes. Does this happen to any other bloggers out there?
Awww!! Lol you're so funny! I really hope you like some of your new items Teresa <33 & the saammee thing happens to me with the Milani! My eyelid space is super oily, so even with primer & shadow my eyeliner will smudge sometimes :( Boooo hahaha
