hi guys! just after christmas beautylish held their annual sale on their lucky bags, which were $75 for $150+ worth of products. this time, they had 3 different choices: natural, bold, and mua (makeup artist). i decided to be adventurous and got the bold bag. ~Lin-chan ^.~
rcma palette
pebble & smoky teal (swatched over milani eye primer);
afternoon delight patted over milani eye primer (left) & (right) swatched with included brush and clearly liquid glitter base

- indie lee coq-10 toner (ret. $32) -- i'm game for trying out new toners. granted, this one is more expensive than clinique, but we shall try it!
- kinda weirded out by this. not the product, but the packaging and shipping. when i opened up the package, the box for this product was wet, but the bottle was completely sealed and dry. wut. really confused.
- update: i'm not totally sure about this..fragrance in mah skincare........
- bliss lemon + sage body butter (ret. $29) -- i love lemon and herb type scents. i'm not certain about using such a scent on the whole body, but ok. i'll try it.
- lit cosmetics summer sparkle lit kit in afternoon delight (ret. $13) -- i've never tried the lit kits and i was kinda but not totally interested in them. i'm not huge into applying chunky glitter to my skin so i was halfway about this product. but i think that this glitter is milled small enough that it'll be ok. i definitely think that you should use the included glitter base--otherwise it won't stick to your skin! the brush that was included was pretty crappy and made application awkward.
- be careful opening up the glitter if you get one of these. the sifter doesn't have a sticker on it, and a lot of glitter is sitting on the sifter.
- kevyn aucoin the eyeshadow duo in 214 (pebble/smoky teal) (ret. $42) -- this duo is so pretty in the pan. but swatching it, the teal was meh. the pebble is a nice all-over shade, but teal did not want to swatch nicely, i had to build it up.
- rcma series favorites palette highlight/contour (ret. $30) -- i've been wanting to try an rcma concealer palette for a while now and now i can! this is really creamy and super blendable, but it seems like it needs powdering to set, otherwise it will move.
- inglot colour play mascara in blue (ret. $13) -- i haven't tried anything inglot before (i've been wanting to try their shadows!), but i'm super excited that they sent me blue. >w< i generally use colored mascaras on the lower lashes.
- wayne goss eye brush 17 (ret. $32) -- w00t. another wayne goss brush! super amazing awesome. it's a little bit bigger than i like using for an all over shadow brush, but we will make it work! (i prefer brushes similar to sigma's E55)
