This wasn't an intended shopping spree but some how I managed to get quite a few items. But before I went crazy over shopping, I went to see the movie 'Mr. Popper's Penguins'. I have to say that the movie was really funny, the story line is very cliche but if you like comedies then this is really worth watching. Now into the shopping.
The first thing I bought was an eye shadow refill from MAC. I got Satin Taupe because I have had heard good things about it, I have to admit that when other people said that it would look shimmery and very hard to wear but when you actually swatch it on your hand, the color has a perfect satin finish and is really beautiful. I also got myself the Prep + Prime Face Protect Protection Visage. It is my second purchase because I am almost out of the first one, I don't believe that I have done a review on this product but this really is worth the talk.
A pretty bad swatch of the eyeshadow I have to say, but as you can see even with the flash from my camera, the eyeshadow doesn't really reflect a lot of light, especially when the flash was in such a close distance.
Have I mentioned that it was my first eyeshadow for my MAC palette? 1 down 14 to go!!
The second (technically the third) thing I bought was this insect repellent. I have seen the commercial of this a lot, and the little girl in there was really adorable. I personally am the type of person who would spray a very small amount of insect repellent around my bed to keep the bugs away from me. I know that sleeping with chemical close to you is really bad, but I hated bugs WAYYYYY more. This insect repellent is DEET free and it is in safe reach for children, so I guess that this repellent is safer for me to sleep around. This still has that insect repellent smell to it but it smells less like chemical and more organic some how. I tried it on myself today and even I can't take the fact that I smell like insect repellent so I would suggest this product for either people who don't mind carrying that smell around or for people who are like me who wishes to keep the bugs away when we are defenseless in our sleep.
Thirdly, I went to Maud Frizon today and I picked up three pairs of shoes. They always have these shoes that they would put on sale for $299-$499 and they are usually their basics. It is a really good deal when some of them are actually 50% off and they look really beautiful. So today I picked up two pairs that were on sale and one pair that I just can't resist having.
This is the first pair of shoes. They are very beautiful and bright red, perfect for color blocking as well as for a pop of color when you want to look less dull. Also red is always a safe color for shoes and for people who wish not to wear it on their bodies. These are the ones on sale and I do believe that they are made out of part leather and part fabric.
These are the second pair, they are the exact same pair of shoes as the first one but just in a different color. As you can see, this is their basic design for their shoes. very adorable ballerina flats. There is a funny story behind this pair of shoes, somehow I was actually given two left-shoe instead of a matching pair, therefore I had to run back and get them exchanged. One thing about their shoes is that even just because of the fabric, the size might just change a little. For me, the red ones were better fitted when they were size 40 and as for the off white ones, they are actually 39. I manage to learn that because the exact thing happened to me the first time when I got a pair of blue ones as well as the yellow ones. So if you are going to get shoes from there, I won't suggest you to just walk in, ask for a pair and leave, REMEMBER to definitely try it out for even my mom needed different sizes for different colors of shoes.
These are the third pair that I bought today. These weren't on promotion but they are considered to be quite affordable in comparison to other shoes this brand carries mostly because it consists more fabric than leather which makes it more affordable to produce. A lot of you won't spend $600 on a pair of flimsy fabric flats but I have to say that I have a soft part in my heart for any lace product and knowing the fact that they are too detailed for the brand to put it on promotion and it is so cute that it would be all sold out by the time it reaches the next sale season, so I just had to buy these babies!!
Lastly I got this Honey Pump Lip Essence by Majolica Majorica. It comes in their lip gloss tube and it says that it would keep your lips moist. I liked the MAC lip conditioner so I decided to try this out and see if it is compatible to the MAC one. This will be reviewed on my other blog in a short period of time!
