Online Shopping!


I've been shopping online in the past few weeks to take the edge of having to come back to school. Here's some pics of my recent online haul. :)

I got some NYX lipstuffs from cherryculture.com - from top to bottom, it's round lipgloss in Whipped, Mega Shine lipgloss in Smokey Look, Round lipgloss in Sorbet, and 2 l/l in Natural because they were BOGOF at $2!
I like the formula of the Mega Shine l/g better than the round l/g, but overall, I'm really happy with my purchase. The colors are so pretty and the products are all pretty pigmented. Sorbet is the PERFECT baby pink l/g - it's everything I wanted Underage to be, even though Underage is way too white on me. Whipped is a great nude l/g that kind of reminds me of MAC C-Thru, which I lent my friend one night we went out clubbing and never got back. :( My fav out of the products is Smokey Look l/g - it's a gorgeous natural warm l/g. Love love love it.

Next I took advantage of the 60% off boutique brand sale that they have going on at makeup.com. I got Too Faced diamond gloss in pink diamond and Vincent Longo diamond wet/dry eyeshadow in Dawn Flesh:
I LOVE these! the TF l/g is sooooo smooth and has the prettiest microshimmers that make my lips look fuller! It's brighter than what I wanted, so I'm contemplating getting some more colors. The VL e/s is kind of gritty and sucks when you use it dry, but it's gorgeously shimmery when you apply it wet. It really makes your lids sparkle like diamonds!

I also ordered this awesome Jami Rodriguez necklace off of Hautelook.com because it's originally around $100 and it was on sale for $45. I also had a $10 off coupon, so I got this necklace for only about $35!


MAC has been having a ton of free ship codes lately, so I also got the lipstick in Shy Girl, which I've been wanting for a while but which has been sold out for the longest time at my counters. I love this shade. It's a really pretty almost nudish corally peachy shade.
I can see this working really well with the NYX l/g I got.

And the last item I got is this awesome keyboard protector for my macbook pro! My boyfriend got this for me and I get a ton of compliments on it from my classmates. :) I type really fast so I get self-conscious about my loud typing in class sometimes, so this helps muffle the sounds.

And that's it for now! I also ordered a bunch of stuff at F21 because I needed some layering camis and socks. I can't wait to get that package on Monday!

Do the round lipglosses have the same cherry scent as the shine glosses? I bought Smokey Look a while ago but the scent really bothered me. Otherwise I was really pleased with the quality of the gloss.

Love looking at haul pics. I haven't hauled in a while!

I need to get Smokey Look...I prefer the texture of the mega shine glosses too, but I have do have Whipped an a few other round glosses.

About the hair...I just don't want any indentations/marks in the hair from the clamp so I don't bother using it :).

I've wanted to read Valley of the Dolls for years, but I still haven't done it. I'm almost positive I'd love it.

OMG your NYX glossies make me drool.

Your keyboard cover is so cute too ;)

Omg, you're heading to Disneyworld? Yay!! =D I've never been but would love to visit someday.

I have combo skin but due to the winter weather, it's more dry than oily right now. That said however I think the Purpose cleanser would be great for you too since it's so gentle. :) The DiorSnow is working well for me. This is my second tube. However I think your skin may find the Dior sunblock to be too heavy/greasy. It comes in cream form. Have you tried Sofina Rise UV Cut Milk SPF 50+? I really love this when my skin is on the oilier side (like in the summer) b/c its consistency is almost water-like and it dries to a matte finish. I get it from ichibankao.com :) Hope this helps!

I also recently just got NYX mega lipgloss in Smokey Look. I wish it didn't smell like the worst cough syrup I ever took. ugh! The color's great but man, I never want to put it on b/c I hate the medicine like scent. I also totally need Shy Girl lipstick like..now!

as for fave yoga pants, i actually bought a whole bunch at this random shop by my house. it's no name brand but very similar to hard tail: http://www.urbanminx.com/product.asp?lt=d&deptid=5289&sec=ladies&pfid=UMX07088

Hahaha...so we share the same love for that ride huh? Yep yep we got it here too. ;) Yeah, I went on the Soarin' over California ride too! I dig the 'smell-o-vision' factor...hehe.

I bought the falsies from my post on ebay last year, and there's no brand name on them. They're exactly like the one's in this link though =).
