Everyday Minerals & Small NYX Haul
New toys! Sorry if I don't sound really excited. I actually got my EDM a few days ago, but didn't get to posting this because I was so pissed that my free gifts didn't come with it, since I kinda ordered this kit because of the freebies. Anyway, EDM finally got back to me and told me they've shipped my freebies. Well, its still upsetting since I was so excited to try the holiday eyeshadows. So with this haul, I have all their blushes except Everyday Bronzer and Sparkle Bronzer, both too dark for me. Meanwhile, EDM has discontinued their 10 piece eyeshadow sample kit. Kinda sucks, I do have some matte eyeshadows I wanted to get, maybe in another special I like. Oh well, I hope they will come up with something similar or even better, a 10 piece sample kit that allows you to mix all loose minerals! That'd be perfect!
Foundation for my mum! I'm trying to convert her to use mineral foundation. I got the Natural blush even though I still some have left, need more for mixing with the darker and more pigmented blushes. Oh this reminds me, I've yet to post my EDM blush mixes. :X Also got 2 eyeshadow brushes and 1 flat top for backup. I used to think that EDM eyeshadow brush wasn't that great, but I was wrong! Its excellent! I have three now, one for precise shading, another for cream eye products such as paintpots and one for backup.
EDM Super Personal Custom Kit (US$50) + Free Sample Kit
I know Peach Tree & Deep Wine are kinda too dark on me, so I bought them with the intention of lightening them with Natural.
Mini NYX haul. Yay 3 new lipsticks. The only lipsticks I own are from NYX. Um, I don't really wear lipsticks, so I only buy cheap lipsticks from NYX, lol. In fact I think I only wore lipstick on less than 5 occasions, most of the colors are nude beige and one was a bright red from a makeover. Got a bright red lipstick with blue undertones coz I thought it might be nice on special occasions.
I love Smokey Look soooooo much! It has a tiny bit of sparkles though and I'm alittle disappointed. Thank god its not obvious. Despite my love for shimmery, sparkly eyeshadows and eyeliners, I really prefer non-glittery and non-sparkly (but very glossy) lip glosses. Do I sound contradicting? Haha, I just like flat but glossy lip glosses.
MACCosmetics.com is having 25% off storewide! I've ordered... will keep u all updated. (Edit: Its accepted! Yay!!) And I saw new promo pictures for the Hello Kitty collection. As I mentioned, not a fan of HK, and I know alot of fans are disappointed with the packaging but I dig it! Super exciting!
