UPS is the shizzle

Ahhhhh so my order came in from Sephora today! :D
Its always fun when you come home to an awaiting package, just waiting for you to tear it apart.
I was looking forward to using the Yu-Be moisturizing skin cream since I've seen so many reviews and heard so many good things about it.
Whenever winter strikes, my face is always paying a price because I never know what moisturizer to use without causing my skin to dry up and flake. Last year I just remember I'd feel very paranoid and I'll just constantly stop in the middle of the street and ask JP, "am I peeling?" and he'll say no most of the time and it just got to the point where I ask, "peeling?" then he wouldn't even look at me and just tell me no lol. oy good times...

ON TO THE PRODUCTS!

So first and foremost is my yu-be and based from the reviews I was warned about this camphor smell. It isn't that strong, I think people just over exaggerate and anyways the smell wears off in a matter of seconds. Its pretty thick and its safe for your lips so I just put it all over my face, I didn't feel that it was greasy, only a teeny weeny bit. Also lately my lips have been ridiculously chapped and burts bees just wasn't pulling it off. I felt like I was healed after putting the yu-be on :D love it! love it! love it!

Then I got the Fusion Beauty LipFusion Color Shine in the color Sun because it was only $10! :O

and there was an additional 20% all sale/clearance items sooo I def. had to grab that! I haven't tried it yet as much as I'm dying to. I need to use up most of the other lip stuff I have before I go opening it :(

Finally there was the Marc Jacobs, Daisy Gift set. There was the regular sized perfume and a mini rollerball and a cute little coin pouch that I have no use for but its a cutie nonetheless. The smell is alright, pretty light.

If you know about the Beauty Insider, then you know that you earn points for all your purchases and as much as I'd like to save 500 points, i keep spending them :/ so I got me a Benefit BADgal Plum Mascara. Again, I need to use up the mascaras I have opened before they reach their 6 month mark. Then I'll use this as well as the Covergirl lash blast. I've used the BADgal mascara in the past and it was absolutely wonderful for my lashes. My lashes are just so damn straight I have to curl them all the time and the moment I put the mascara on, they straighten up again lol. But I think its because their brush is so big and wide, my lashes can't help but hug it.
I'll update about the Yu-Be and Daisy in a few. Until next time...ta ta!

ELF Brushes

Eyes Lips Face aka e.l.f. sells brushes and cosmetics for really cheap like a buck cheap. I've been using a couple of their brushes for a few months now and its pretty good for just $1.

Blush, Bronzing And Blending Brush 

I use this brush mainly for my bronzers and for blending. I don't really use blush since I still feel like I look like a clown after I apply it. Anyways its really good for contouring, I didn't notice much fall outs from  the brush. Its also really good at blending too. It pretty much gets the job done, no questions asked.
I give it a 4.5 out of 5.

Total Face Brush 

I use this brush when I'm just applying my face powder. It distributes the color evenly but the fall outs of the brush are pretty frequent. So I get kinda paranoid sometimes, thinking that their may be a strand of red hair on my face somewhere =/ However, I feel that the brush may be a little too fluffy? I know thats supposed to sound like its a good thing but I would like for the brush not to be so spread out, I'm not sure if I'm making any sense. The point is that it doesn't pickup as much powder because its all loose and sprawled out. Oy I'm just not good at describing this brush. THEN just a couple of weeks ago it broke! the wooden handle just separated itself from the brush but I've temporarily stuck em back together. So I'd give this brush a 3 out of 5.  

Overall these brushes aren't bad for a dollar, I think I'm gonna try the foundation brush next.
Until next time... ta ta!
