Collective Haul: Missha, CVS, Sephora

Missha
Missha is currently having a 50%, 40% or 30% on the entire store so I took advantaged of the sale since it's waaay cheaper then getting it at Asian cosmetic shops.

I got a Misa Golden Snowflake Booster Essence, Time Revolution Serum and a free full size BB Cream.



I heard the Misa Snowflake Booster Essence is great for dry skin and on the box it claims it has "real gold" inside as you can see some gold flakes on the bottom of the bottle but I doubt it's real as long as it makes my skin looking nice :D


I also got two eyeshadow palettes, a blush and a waterproof liquid liner.

The packaging is gorgeous!



Milani
during black friday Milani had a huge 50% off sale + free shipping on their entire site and since I wanted to try their baked blush everyone was raving about I decided to purchase 3 of their most popular shades which is "Coralina, Dulce Pink and Luminoso"

I remember when the sale just started the site was slowing down really bad and people were complaining on their facebook page so Milani decided to extend their sale for 2 days and informing their customers to never fear if the items were sold out because they will have plenty in their warehouse and I have to say EXCELLENT customer service. Unlike the huge NYX sale fiasco during the summer, that was a total mess and unprofessional, I doubt anyone was able to order anything.



Sephora
On black friday Sephora was having a $10 sale on a lot of items including the Tokidoki quads and since I had to work on that day my sister manage to snag some of them for me including a sample bag, I was soo excited and thought she wouldn't able to get them since they were sold out online.


The Body Shop
I got 3 jumbo body butters for $30 because they were having a 3 for $30 on their site during black friday. Thanks to my friend Ashley who mention that it also applies on Jumbo body butters so I couldn't say no, it's such a deal because each of these usually cost $25 each. They're 400 ml each so they will last me for quite a while!


CVS
Thanks to the blogger "Nouveaucheap.blogspot.com" she mention that CVS is having another year end sale like they do every year where they get rid of old merchandise to make room for the newer ones. I got a Physicians Formula Powder with SPF 50 for $4.12, three 10 Professional nail polishes for $1.25 each and a brown Revlon Satin Eyeshadow for $1.37. My total with tax $9.80, what a deal!

Product Review: Milani Glimmer Stripes

Product Review: Milani Glimmer Stripes

Heres a drugstore product I really love! The Milani Glimmer Stripes which is a copy of Bobbi Brown Shimmer Bricks, instead of paying over $30 I try to find a cheaper alternative to these and found Milani.

Where can I buy these?: Target, K-Mart or CVS


Colors from top left: Honey Glimmer, Terra Glimmer, Berry Glimmer and Pink Glimmer. They have two more colors that are a little deeper bronze but I only pick the ones that are suitable for my skin color.

Review:
I looove the texture in these very soft, bendable and pigmented, they have a shimmer but not heavy or glittery so its wearable in the day time. They are pigmented so I usually tap a little on brush and build the color up a little at a time. You can use them as blush, eyeshadow or a highlighter. I can't compare it to the Bobbi Brown version because I don't own one but I heard lots of review that the Milani is better.

Swatches:

Natural Lighting, names from left to right: Honey Glimmer, Terra Glimmer, Berry Glimmer and Pink Glimmer.

Room Lighting, names from left to right: Honey Glimmer, Terra Glimmer, Berry Glimmer and Pink Glimmer.

Honey Glimmer: is great as a light bronzer, its not heavily dark so this is perfect for those who have light complexion.

Terra Glimmer: can be use as a blush, the picture makes it look dark but its really a peachy-bronze color, its perfect for that nice glow.

Berry Glimmer: Makes a great pinky blush, very pretty!

Pink Glimmer: is perfect as a highlighter because its so light.

Rating: 5 out of 5!
Would I buy this again?: Yes!

Thanks for reading!
