Long-Waited Haulage

It was been a while since I have hauled beauty-related items, so I'm glad to be back on track. 

I was requested to do some swatches of the Anna Sui palette, so here it is. I didn't do an EOTD with it, because I haven't found a suitable look yet. The first time I tried out the palette my dad jokingly said it looks like I have a bruised eye. LOL 

I don't know if my palette is defected or not, but that lavender color moves around in the pan! O.o I was like "Are you kidding me?" 
PSH! So much for being a high-end eyeshadow palette.
NO Flash
The dark purple color is pretty pigmented, however the rest is just OK. Just for your information all of these eyeshadows have a heavy perfume scent. When I say heavy, I mean HEAVYY! So basically it unpleasantly reeks of perfume. As you know Jill Stuart palettes also have a particular smell, but those aren't overwhelming at all.

I went to the mall two days before Mac's In the Groove Collection came out to hold Petticoat. Little did I know that, Stereo Rose was the one that people were hyping up. I seriously thought that people were going to go nuts about Petticoat. I do wish that I picked up Stereo Rose too though. I missed my chance. I feel that whenever I have a chance to buy something I don't, then I end up wanting it really badly when it's all sold out. Causing me to have to hunt it down by all means. Have you guys ever experienced that? 
I got one with TONS of veining.

As you guys know, I originally was not a Mac fanatic. However, I feel myself slowly gravitating towards the brand.
The stupid manufacturing people put TWO plastic inserts into my MSF. hahaha
SWAP~
Then I went on Makeup Alley and swapped with Christine for a Mac Marine Life. Once again, I chose not to purchase this when I had the opportunity. sigh..... 
I am in love with Mr. Seahorse~ I really wish the gold part wasn't an over spray
I definitely think that this is Mac's prettiest creation ever.
I have only opened the lid twice~
Call me CRAZY. whatever....
 

Package Number TWO
 
I ordered something from Adambeauty. My order came in 4 business days, which is pretty darn fast for $2 shipping. 
  

I got the Coffret D'or Spring Collection eyeshadow palette in 04. This one was the one that caught my eye ever since that collection came out. I saw lots of blog posts on this palette, and people seemed to adore it too. ^.^


Though Coffret's packaging is nice, but I absolutely hate seeing my fingerprints all over the palette. oh well. Nothing is perfect.


It is stunning in person, especially the peachy shimmery color in the center. 
BREATH-TAKING!


I went to Target to check out their drugstore makeup~


This is what I came home with~


 A new Revlon eyelash curler because the one that I am currently using is getting old, well , the rubber part. I decided to get the black one because it reminded me of the Chanel curler, and it looked kinda bad ass. ^.^ Hopefully this won't pinch my eyes.


Next I got myself the Lash Stiletto, however it's waterproof this time. It was a value pack, so it came with a eyeliner. It states that it is the "Ultimate Precision" Liner, but that's just BULLSHIT. I will show you why in my next post~

As you may know, I have been having acne problems lately. So I decided to the Neutrogena Rapid Clear gel. It sounds pretty convincing, saying it fights and fades acne. I will do a review after two weeks of using it. 


I am so excited about getting the Garnier Cream Gel~
I have seen this product in my Tawainese magazines, and on blog posts too. It finally arrived in the US.


I think that the baby aqua color is really adorable. I bought it for $6.99, which personally I think is quite a good deal!




Thanks for Reading~
