Nail Polish Haul

The nail polishes I order have finally arrived yesterday and even though I know you guys have already seen these everywhere else I thought oh why not lets share it

The ones I got are L-R Orly Off with Her Red, Orly Galaxy Girl, Orly Space Cadet and Orly Iron Butterfly




These polishes are so pretty and I will definitely order more. I guess my promise to myself of not getting into polishes just went down the drain LOL

Anyway here is a swatch of Orly Space Cadet. This is what I have on my nails right now. I will show you all the swatches of the rest of the polishes when I get around to wearing them. Which gives me the idea of doing a NOTD or NOTW posts :D

Orly Space Cadet in natural light


Isnt that just so pretty



I ordered this polishes online at Digital Traincase . You can see the swatches of the nail polishes on that site so you guys can have an idea of what it will look like on your nails. The customer service is really good and the owner replies fast and accurately to inquires.

Digital Traincase also accepts orders for NYX cosmetics and the prices in this shop is the cheaper compared to the other online shops I know so thats a big plus. After I save up some money I will definitely be ordering there again

I forgot to add that the prices are posted in the albums so you wont need to ask the owner for them

MAC Venomous Villians haul, review and swatch

So I went to the release of the Venomous Villians yesterday at MAC Makati but sadly I couldnt stay for the workshop because I had something to do in the afternoon

So I got Wicked ways lipglass, Strange potion lipglass, Toxic tale lipstick, Resort life lipgelee, Brash and Bold pigment. I also got the Viva glam Gaga and Cyndi lipglass since they had it already


Still in the very nice packaging
From L-R Viva glam Cyndi, Viva glam Gaga, Wicked ways l/g, Strange potion l/g, Toxic tale l/s, Resort life lipgelee, Brash and Bold pigment
L-R Resort Life lipgelee, Wicked ways l/g, Strange potion l/g, Toxic Tale l/s

Resort life is a shimmery frosted lipgloss. When you put it on thickly, it like a champagne color but sheerly it just gives the lips a lot of glitter to it. It has purple pink silver and gold glitters in it
Wicked ways is a blue based cherry lipgloss. It goes on pretty dark on me but that might just be because of the natural color of my lips
Strange potion is a beautiful pinky coral that tones down the color of my lips nicely without making me look dead
Toxic tale lipstick is a really bright coral/orange lipstick. It goes on smooth but does stain the lips a little

L-R Resort Life lipgelee, Wicked ways l/g, Strange potion l/g, Toxic Tale l/s (with flash)

Brash and Bold pigment - is a very bright pink with a slight sheen to it
Sadly you cant really see it in the pics here
Brash and Bold pigment (with flash)


Top: Viva Glam Cyndi - is a very nice wearable coral. Its not as dark as the lipstick
Bottom: Viva Glam Gaga - this is a lot more creamier than the lipstick and more pale and less blue toned

I actually wanted to get the mineralized eyeshadows but sadly they were sold out already. Also I realized that I majorityly got lip products after I went to pay for them but thats ok LOL

My retail theraphy haul

Last week I came back from a 1 week trip in Mindoro where we had to live with the Mangyans. After a little rest I decided to go and give myself a retail theraphy ^___^

I will create a seperate post for the review and swatches so that it wont be a confusing post. Well for me at least XD

I got some stuff from Etude House, Elianto, NYX, MAC and LUSH


Here are seperate views of what I got from each brand
Etude House

L-R: Eye & Lip make up remover, Vivid false eyelashes, Oh my lash length and volume mascara, Collagen eye patch and Green tea face mask. I also got a Acne foam cleanser that I forgot to take a picture of -_-

The little tube in the pic is a sample size of thier Precious mineral BB cream that I got free for all my purchase.

Elianto (Korean cosmetic brand)
L-R: Golden yellow and Olive green

I have never actually heard of this brand before but I saw this while I was passing through the cosmetic department of SM megamall and decided to try them out since they had such nice colors. They are also pretty affordable for around 120 php for a 4g worth of product.
They do actually have a pallete that could hold up to four eyeshadows but it was too big. I think its about more of less half the size of the MAC pallete that hold 15 eyeshadows.

NYX
L-R: Lip liners in Plush red and Pinky. Lipsticks in Fire, Chloe, Iris and Bruised.
The one lipstick on top is called Medusa and I got it for my friend so I wont be able to post a swatch of that one, sorry.


MAC

Brush cleaner, Viva Glam V and Painterly paint pot
Yes I gave in and bought painterly, I wasnt really planning on getting this but I just had to buy it when I saw it.


LUSH
L-R: Demon in the dark, Herbalism and Figs & Leaves
I love the smell of their store. I cant wait to go back there to try out more of thier stuff


As you can see I spent quite a bit of money that I had saved up but it was worth it. It was just too bad that my friend couldnt come since she had something to do. Oh well maybe next time we can shop together.

On this trip to MAC I wanted to get matched for a foundation but sadly I couldnt cause I am currently darker than what I used to be and I didnt want to buy a MAC foundation that I wont use that much. So I decided that I will just go back there after I go back to my original color.
So time to save up some money again so I can buy more MAC and LUSH when I go back.
