online shopping haul!

hey guys! i went on an online shopping frenzy several weeks ago and bought a bunch of handmade items and more! i do not have all of the items i wanted to put into this post yet, but i wanted to get this post out there. part 2 will come sometime later. ~L-c ^.~

 
Candles by Victoria, all on pg 1--candles tab:
Carrot Cake (yellow-orange, 9oz country jar): smells full of spices
TiffanyD (yes, like the blogger; light blue, 16 oz country jar): i primarily smell the cotton candy
Strawberry Kiwi (pinkish, 9oz country jar): very strawberry!
Twilight Woods (purple, mini jelly--4oz): not quite like bbw twilight woods.....
Sweet Pea (green, mini jelly--4oz): for my mom. i am not a bbw sweet pea fan, but it could be right..not sure.
Love Potion No. 9 (uhhh, gravy boat-size?--on pg 20): reminds me of--i kid you not--watermelon jolly ranchers or some similar candy.

free with every order, a random wax tart (2oz): gardenia and passion fruit; not my first choices but nice..and i don't have a wax warmer yet. ^^;
the candles came wrapped in bubble wrap, surrounded by packing peanuts, and the candle scent is so strong, you can smell them before unwrapping them! mmmmmm~!
TiffanyD's review and SayAnythingBrooke's review.

update: so i tried the love potion no. 9 candle and when melted/liquefied it is, for real, massage oil. super crazy awesome strange idea!! not sure if i'd buy another because it's scent is more prominent when it is solid vs. burning it, and i'm not a super huge massage oil person. maybe i'll try out the soaps from victoria's daughter's shop. so, with the exception of love potion no. 9, these candles' scents fill the whole room like amy's candles do, burning or not! love it! >w<

update update: so the love potion no. 9 is totally weird. yes as massage oil, it re-solidifies on your skin, turning it white with this layer of weirdness/i-need-a-shower-now feeling. so, i think it'll remain solid for a while again. if she made this scent as a regular candle, i would totally get it, but this whole massage oil idea is not our thing.

Zoya nail polishes: Fleck Effect trio, Noel, Charla, Ibiza, and Ava.
i didn't completely choose to buy Ava, the ebayer selling natalie (below) had them bundled and, uh hello: two zoya polishes for the price of one. yes!

 
chloe, opal, maisie; ava, noel, charla, ibiza
like The PolishAholic said, over black: there's almost no difference between maisie and opal. i love ibiza & charla. >w<


  
Natalie, Sarah, and Elise for my little cousins.


Art of Beauty (zoya.com) gave me these free for 买多东西 >.< (all but two of the above bottles are from them)
Qtica Grapefruit Surprise sugar scrub (7oz) and Zoya Remove Plus nail polish remover (2oz)

Too Faced: Tinted Beauty Balm in Vanilla Glow, free flatbuki brush, deluxe sample Sun Bunny bronzer
beauty balm initial impression: i need a tan, this is the lightest shade! (smeared, blended)

 
Ulta: Maybelline Color Tattoo in Fierce & Tangy (i have all of them now! muhaha!) & Butter London: Disco Biscuit--love the purple/blue glitter!
this orange is like halloween orange. not sure if i'll use it any other time.
