Collective Haul 2013

May 12, 2013

I’ve bought a few things in the past few months in Vegas and in Vancouver and put together a collective haul!

Make Up

In my recent trip to Las Vegas, I went to Sephora to find some goodies. Surprsingly I had pretty good self restraint and only picked up two things!
1) Jasmine Nail Polish Collection: I thought I didn’t have similar colors but when I got home I realized I had dupes for almost all of them! Check here for swatches.
2) Benefit’s Most Glamorous Neturals: I wanted a smaller neutral palette than my UD naked palette. But once I came back to Vancouver I realized I really didn’t need it so I returned it.

Clothes

In Las Vegas, I also bought two pairs of shoes from Nine West Outlet. I was planning on doing a lot of shopping but unfortunately there wasn’t too much to buy.
Once I came back, I had to go shopping for some work clothes. I’m starting my internship in two weeks! Here’s my new business casual pieces! Let me know of any good outfits you wear in the office! The first three pictures are from Dynamite and the last one is from Forever 21
*Also grabbed a F21 makeup wipe along the way*

Bath and Body Works

I’m a huge fan of bath and body works candles so I’ve been waiting for a while for their semi annual sale. However, I wasn’t too pleased with the current selection and spent significantly less than budgeted. So I guess that’s a good thing!

This is their sale poster.

Here’s what I picked up!

Bali Mango Triple Moisture Cream $4
-This was kind of one of those random things I grabbed because I was curious about it.

Small Candle in Peach Bellini $6.25 
-I was planning on grabbing many more candles but at $6.25 it’s still pretty pricey

Scent portables Buy 3 get 1 Free $12
-I wanted to get some good smells in my car so I bought these!
-The margarita cup I put in a fruity cocktail scent, and the blue bow one has a pineapple vanilla smell

However, I read on someone’s blog that she wasn’t a fan of bath and body works lotion and I never realized how heavily perfumed and moisturizing it is. I probably won’t continue buying the body lotions. But their candles are to die for!

Gifts

Lastly, Happy Mother’s Day to everyone! I got my mom some yummy drink mixers and a gift card to Home Sense. I’ve been buying her perfume, makeup, flowers, jewelry so I thought I’d change it up a bit! What are you guys doing for Mother’s Day?

🫎🍁 Don't miss this LIMITED EDITION release from @t 🫎🍁 Don't miss this LIMITED EDITION release from @tatcha! Inspired by the changing fall colors of the Japanese maple, this beautiful kissu lip mask now has a berry red tint. I love the moisturizing squalane and Japanese peach extracts. My dry lips have never felt so hydrated and soft. Definitely give this a try if you're looking for a smooth and plump lip with a hint of color. 

🍮 The packaging is also stunning with the maple motifs on the lid that makes this display worthy in any bathroom or vanity!

It has been a minute since posting 😅 the first two It has been a minute since posting 😅 the first two weeks with a newborn have been full of challenges and adjustments. But it's nice to take a break and go through some of my beauty products as a break 🤭.

Here are my top three face creams for the changing weather especially if you have dry skin!

Swatched from left to right: clarins, drunk elephant, aestura 

👌  moisturizing face creams for dry skin

Clarins Extra Firming: I love the day and night version of this cream. The night is even more heavy duty and creamy so sometimes I use the day version only 💫

It's got a beautiful scent and amazing collagen technology to plump the skin!

Aestura Atobarrier Lotion: this is a newer korean brand thats available now at Sephora. Part of the amorepacific family, so you know it'll be good!

The packaging is very simple and unassuming but I love how this soothes the skin! Its quite lightweight in texture but I used this when I was sick and it saved my nose after blowing into tissue a gazillion times a day! 🩵

Drunk Elephant Bora Barrier: im always a big fan of drunk elephant. This one is my favorite face cream from the brand. I love the pump packaging and this is perfect if you want hydration and barrier support!
