left: black liner (waterline) & sugar plum lipstick

  • beauty
    • rimmel london
      • gentle eye makeup remover (4.2oz, full size, ret. $4) -- i've been interested in trying this remover. it seems to be water based, not oil-based. so we'll see how it holds up to my current favorite.
        • update: i used it to remove my swatches. this stuff CANNOT remove their own eye liner without intense scrubbing. wtf. not gentle whatsoever.
      • scandalEyes kohl kajal eye liner in black (.042oz, full size, ret. $4) -- you guys know i already love this pencil. this makes #3 in my stash. 
        • i am disappointed though that the pencil was open and the tip broke all over the inside of the box though........ and of course, i forgot to pack my pencil sharpener.
    • nyc color expert last lip color in sugar plum (.11oz, full size, ret. $2) -- i've never tried their lipsticks before, and this one is a super pretty metallic dusty rosy color. two complaints right off: a) it reeks of artificial cherry scent and i hate all things artificial cherry; and b) the packaging design: the bullet doesn't twist all the way down into the tube, so like half the product is sticking up when it's brand new.
    • boots no7 protect & perfect advanced serum (.01oz, sample, ret. $30 for 1oz [$3]) -- i'll have to get back to you on this one...
    • ecotools styler+ shine finisher hair brush (ret. $10.99) -- this is a really nice (fully synthetic) "boar bristle" type brush. i can't wait to start using it!
  • food:
    • celestial seasonings candy cane lane decaf green tea (2 tea bags, ret. $3.39 for box of 20 [$0.34]) -- i luff teh green tea, and if this is peppermint-y green tea, that'll be super awesome to try!
    • mccormick gourmet all natural thyme (.62oz, full size, ret. $5) -- thyme is thyme? i'm not sure what makes this thyme more gourmet than regular thyme.........
      • so after checking the apartment, we already have an open bottle of their gourmet thyme. so yeah...
    • red vines fruit vines bites in strawberry (5oz, mini?, ret. $3 for 10oz [$1.50]) -- yes. yes! yes!!! they gave me strawberry! if i got the cherry..i'm not sure what i'd have done. bleh! but i'm excited to try these. i love licorice and fruit snack products. too bad i can't open them now and eats them, i got my wisdoms out today...booooooo.
approximate voxbox value: $30.69
