A Small Beauty Haul
Friday, January 20th, 2012 | 52 Comments 
Earlier this week I received an order from Yesstyle. It’s a bit telling that it has a few New Year’s Resolution hopes tied to it! Ha!
Lots of firming up body gels. I recently finished my giant bottle of Nivea Skin Firming Moisturizer Q10 Plus.
I wanted to try more firming gels again. The Nivea one I used to use (which worked wonders) is no longer available.
So I picked up these three from SANA-




A few other things I got include -
- SANA Hadanomy Collagen Cleansing Gel (makeup removal)
I wanted something more gentle for removing my eye makeup lately and this line gets amazing reviews so I’m finally trying it out!
- Skinfood Carrot Collagen Eye Sheet
Skinfood! I have a bunch of free skinfood samples to try too. I love eye masks for days I don’t want to do a full face mask. The packaging was really sweet and natural looking as well. Peaceful almost.
- Kose Happy Bath Day Precious Rose Rose Enrich Lip Essence
I talked about Happy Bath Day items before! Ready to try this lip essence!
- Shiseido Majolica Majorca Glass Drop Gel Coat
I heard this gives a nice “gel nail” look to simple manicures and I’m always looking to try new top coats. Lately my nails have weakened due to stress so they are so ugly right now despite my nail supplements and strengthening products.
I still have a lot to try from Christmas too. 
I’m sorta on a beauty goods binge lately but it makes me happy so I’m not going to chastise myself over it right now
Instead I’m off to try my Hadanomy cleansing gel!
This post had a lot of butts in it

Amused
Clarisonic and Butter London
Thursday, December 1st, 2011 | 61 Comments 

I got this butter London polish at South Moon Under last night on the way to dinner. I love red and the glitter makes this perfect for the holidays! It’s called Chancer.
Chancer
Wear this deep, “crushed glitter” red when you are feeling particularly out of his league. He doesn’t deserve you anyway.
Their holiday collection is pretty if you like purple pastels and glitter. I’m so picky with nail colors lately. Many colors I just never wear. Like blue. My favorite colors to wear are red, gold, and jade. I used to not be so picky, meh~

So I finally started using my Clarisonic! Like I said it’s the Mia2. I got it on a great Black Friday deal from QVC that included a Philosophy face wash, extra “deep-pore” brush and at a great discounted price.
Plus I have until Jan 31st to try it out and return it no questions asked if I’m not happy.
I’ve always wanted one really but I am excited and nervous. I heard there can be a purging stage in the beginning as the impurities come out. I read reviews that said how soft it makes your skin and how quickly skincare products get absorbed after using it. I was skeptical … but it’s true!! Even after my first use my skincare products immediately absorbed!! And my skin really is so, so soft after using it.
But I’m more excited to see where my skin is in 2~4 weeks.
I bought it mainly because reviews were saying it helped reduce visible pores. These past few months my pores are really starting to show. It’s my mother’s genetics kicking in.
Her pores are huge and, as I age
, mine are not looking so great.
I had been trying different skincare and makeup products to help with pores but I’m not 100% satisfied with any of the creams and primers I’ve tried. So I’m curious to see if the Clarisonic will help! Lately I really feel like investing in my skincare, long-term.
