Nail Colour: Kate RD-5

I tried a few Japanese nail polishes when I lived there but I bought most at Daiso or a small boutique in the mall. Movers lost my polish :(  and they broke all but one of my eyeshadows and blusher. I never got to try Kate or other high brands.

Packaging




I blocked the light from lamp. My camera wouldn't focus and it had a bad glare.


Artificial light but this is what it looks like in real life.



The formula was really thick. I've never dealt with a thick formula but its well pigmented and this is only one coat plus top coat. (of course underneath it a base coat.) Absolutely love this colour, never thought I could pull off a red...I dont know why I thought that lol. ^_^

Swap with Renee

I did a swap with Renee from Allglitzedup.blogspot and A Polished Life. We met on a Make up talk forum. Renee and I became friends and are going to do another swap in the spring. Thought it would be fun to do a swap so others can get a taste of Germany and vice versa. It was fun shopping for her and I hope she likes what I got her. She got a bite of Germany while I've got a bite of Japan. I lived there for two years and introduced myself to their cosmetics but not all.
This is what she got me:
Here are all my goodies!!


This cute dual eyeshadow had a small crack on the pink side, which spilled all over the inside of the case. I cleaned it up good as new. ^_^ I love animal print and the colours are cute (pink/brownish purple)


Blue glitter nail decoration I'll have to ask her how to use this, I've never used an individual powder like this before. It is very pretty.



Clear polish is called Bon Bon, I'll have to ask Renee if its a top or base coat. Pa has nice blue glitters and Tina Rose is a nice blue colour. Can't wait to try these.


One of the two requests I asked Renee for the swap was a red colour, since I didn't own a red and never wore red. There will be a seperate review post on this. ^_^

This is Majolica Majorica which is a branch off of Shiseido. When I lived in Japan, I tried random cosmetics and fell in love with Japanese mascara particulary this brand. It's like "hairspray for your lashes" meaning once you curl your lashes and put this on they stay curled ALL day and the lashes don't drop. Let me know if you want me to do a seperate review on this.


Hope you enjoyed. Please subscribe! ^_^

October Glossybox Review

I signed up for the Glossybox in September, I know I'm late about putting this out. I didn't receive the November box, I had problems with the bank and Glossybox. So yeah. I'll get the December-Christmas box, which everyone is hyped about. I don't know where my card to tell me the prices I only know 3. Here are the pics:


So I opened my box and got these goodies!! I am a sucker for packaging and its so well put together. J'adore!


A-Derma Lipbalm is made of Rhealba Oat Milk. "With its intensive repair properties this balm nourishes and protects damaged lips and restores softness.
I use this once during the day and before I go to bed. My lips (and skin) tend to get dry during cold weather. I absolutely love this, I need to know where to buy it. I would get the husband one. Price 7,95


This is my first time trying Moroccan Oil. Moroccan Oil is made for all hair types. I love it!! Its really moisturizing and smells so nice. I'll be purchasing this when my sample runs out. Sizes vary and so does the price.


Alo is a beauty drink. This one had mango juice, aloe chunks and another ingredient. I forgot to translate so I dont know. :) It is so good!! Can't describe it, you have to try it for yourself. I will be purchasing again.



Misslyn Sweet Lips #12. Nice pink colour, I like how the cap twists and snaps so you know that its secure. I love lip glosses so this is an addition to my collection. Price 4,95

Kaloderma age balance, day cream. I only use this about once or twice a week. Nothing really to say about this. Its alright.

Wish I had the November box but it is what it is. I cant wait for the Christmas box. They are having an advent calendar prize drawing, so I'll enter those hopefully I'll win. ^_^

Small Rossman Haul

I went after work. I didn't need anything in particular. I bought Essence Anti-Spot gel. It is a great product and only 1,95.

Rival de Loop had a sale on their lipsticks 1,69 Euro. I found a nice perfume for 2,99, its blackberry and it smells so good; there were 4-5 more but I decided on the blackberry and it was the last one. The had a green tea and an orange. They were nice. Of couse I love chocolate so I got two Milka bars. Here are the pics. Next post will be my current favourite products.

Outside casing

The purplish pink is #22 and the red-orange is #37



Anti spot will do a review on this later


Cute packaging it smells so sweet

Until next time everyone! ^_^

Nail colour: 66 Shiny Godness & 45 Date with the Night

I bought Date with the Night about a month ago, kinda forgot I had it. (Oops!) Its a brown colour with a grey undertone. I recently purchased Shiny Godness (I think they meant Goddess..??). I forgot about this colour because I picked up a gold lacquer by Flormar. I used the doting tool on my left pinky finger, it was my first time using it and it came out well. Here are the pics! Until next time! ^_^

Right hand. Would show you a close up but the picture wouldnt load. Sorry.

Nail Colour: Peridot 531 Chanel

My friend Jodi sent me a nice care package. She said I was getting a nail polish and then a few days later she told me it was the Peridot!! I was super excited and it was on my secret wish list!!! So here are the items she got me. Its quality over quantity for me. I'm sending her package soon. Thought I would share it with you all. Picture time!!! ^_^



Here's what came in my package. I really needed a manicure set. I don't usually like pink but the designs are so cute!

Chanel logo on top of the bottle. My camera wouldnt focus without my hand being there.


Tada!!!


I absolutely love this colour!! Totally have Jodi to thank! It's a nice green gold. It went on easy I have on two coats and a top coat underneath that of course is the base coat.


Another view.

I know this is available at Sephora. You can probably find it somewhere online too. I know of two other dupes of this if your interested. Next post will be about my Oktober Glossybox. ^_^ Take care!
