January Hits & Misses

Here it is!!! My Hits & Misses!! Let's start with....

The Misses:

Physicians Formula Organic Wear Tinted Moisturizer: 

The biggest deal breaker for me was the scent. I could not have sent this back faster. Admittedly, I didn't have a problem with the consistency or coverage, but the smell was far too much for me to handle. It had a very, I guess, "organic" smell to it....kinda reminded me of something us Asians have hahaha, but whatever the case....it was just a foul smell BUT this is just my opinion. If you're not sensitive to smells then I would recommend this product considering the fact that it's not too bad of a tinted moisturizer. [Note: that my memory of this isn't very accurate since I only kept it for about a day :)]

Now onto the fun stuff!

The Hits:

NARS Danmari Palette
[Top row from left to right: Hungry Heart, Orgasm, and Desire; Bottom row from left to right: Casino, Super Orgasm, and Sin]

Oh lawd...the love I have for this palette. My all time favorite blush out of the six has to be Sin if I'm ever able to finish the one that's in the palette I'm definitely going to go out and get myself a full-sized one. My second favorite has to be Casino it serves as a wonderful contour color. I love Desire...it's SUPER pigmented and looked a bit scary in the pan, but trust me it looks beautiful when applied on the cheeks. Orgasm is alright, in my opinion, I'm just not a huge fan of the glitter. I haven't had the chance to try out Hungry Heart or Super Orgasm, which I'm kinda scared to try since Orgasm seemed to have a tad bit too much glitter for me. All-in-all...I love this palette. It is VERY expensive though as many people already know so if you don't have the money to splurge on this then I don't think this palette is a very good idea for you. 



There are also A TON of other reviews and swatches on other blogs soo if you'd like more opinions and whatnot please do look! :)

Massive January Haul

This month I went crazy with the spending. I promise next month I'll show more restraint (maybe)! I made my wallet cry like a little b*tch and I'm not even ashamed. Below is just a small preview of what I bought. 
The priciest thing I bought this month was the NARS Danmari palette, which I got 10% off and I don't regret it AT ALL. I love it!

Top row (from left to right):

  • Japanese facial mask [Mitsuwa Marketplace]
  • NARS duo in Charade [Sephora]
  • NARS Danmari palette [Sephora]
  • Skinfood tomato whitening toner [Skinfood]
Second row:
  • L'oreal infallible shadows in Bronzed Taupe and Sultry Smoke [Ulta]
  • Maybelline 24-hour tattoo shadows in Audacious Asphalt and just behind the lipsticks is Bold Gold..I'm such an idiot for covering that [Ulta]
  • Skinfood byulsatang eye color [Skinfood]
Third row:
  • L'oreal HIP duos in Sassy and Electrified [Ulta]
  • Revlon super lustrous lipstick in Primrose (not even gonna lie, I bought this mainly because of The Hunger Games and because one of my favorite beauty gurus, hollyannaeree, loves it) [Target]
  • Revlon lip butter in Creamsicle [Target]
  • L'oreal colour riche balm in Pink Satin [Ulta]
As far as swatches and reviews go, I'll have those in my January Hits and Misses so please look forward to that. I'm also in the works of getting a new camera so bare with my crappy cellphone pictures for a bit :)
