Topbox January 2013

While I was at work today.. I got email notification of my January Topbox delivery.. I was super excited and couldn't wait to go home and open it up.

I got a Clinique beauty box!

Review: Lioele Dollish Veil Vita BB Cream [Purple]

I got 2 samples of this BB cream from Cosmetic Love from my last purchase.  The only reason why I started using this was because my sample bucket was getting full and I was trying to use up all the samples I got.

Without reading up anything about this BB cream I took the little sample packet to use one morning and I was kind of surprised when I squeezed out the BB cream. Because it was not the normal beige/skin colour I was expecting. Instead, it was a pale almost white colour. A bit confused, I went and re-read the package, it says Blemish Balm, Vitamin care, Makeup Base. So I thought it was just a primer. However, after putting it on my face, my complexion brightened up instantly  and my fading acne marks were pretty much concealed. I could even get away with just setting powder and I'm good to go!

I was so impressed with this product that I used it the next day and the day after that. I actually got 5 uses out of the little sample pack. I decided to open up my last packet today and write a review about it.

The shade I got was #1 Gorgeous Purple  (they have 2 shades in total, gorgeous purple and natural green)

you can find the product Here, cosmetic love sells it for $18.68, but if you don't want to get the full size, you can also buy the samples first to try, it is around $3.25 for 3.

The sample pack looks like this:

Mini Sephora Christmas Haul + Stila Snow Angel Color Palette Swatches

I purchased these items on Sephora's website mid December.. but they didn't come in until around Christmas time, and because I was away in Disneyland for Christmas.. I did not get them until I got back

Now I finally have time to take pictures and do swatches =D

so here are the 3 things I got :
 1. Sephora by OPI: Good Tidings We Bling
 2. Bliss Ingrown Eliminating Pads
 3. Stila's 2012 Holiday Collection: Snow Angel Color Palette

    

I didn't do a swatch of the Nail polish but I did swatch all the colours in the palette

The Palette has 12 Cheek Colours and 18 eyeshadows, it also includes Stila's stay all day waterproof volumizing mascara plus a little booklet with instructions for 6 looks
