Free Maybelline stuff YEAH

So I'm participating in the brandstorm competition by L'Oréal. We had this briefing day and got some nice full size products for FREE, to get to know the brand ^^ (we gotta launch the first Maybelline fragrance...). Ok, I gotta say not everyone who participates get it :P we were 1 out of 5 teams who made it into the national finals (out of 12 participating teams, not that much eh...).

Now I have a Matte Mousse foundation which is a bit too pale and pinkish on my NC25 skin (the Maybelline color is 030 Sand). So it accentuates dry flaky skin and coverage isn't the best, BUT the consistency is nice. Ít feels so soft and smooth when applying. LOL I'm gonna find a way to wear it... with yellow colored powder ;D
Then I have an eyeshadow duo with too much white shimmer in it. Come on Maybelline, you have a nice image, so don't make cheap looking eyeshadow. Thanx! (if you didn't notice, cheap eyeshadows with bad quality that you find in those noname sets usually have white shimmer overload....).
Next up: A clear nailpolish which is supposed to dry in 40 seconds. Didn't try it yet, but I will wear it as a basecoat anyway and I really needed a basecoat!
Another item for the eye is the XXL Mascara, but unfortunately it's not waterproof... I can only use waterproof due to my Asian stick straight lashes.
Now we're almost done: Superstay Powergloss! In a pink shade with gold shimmer, I was hoping to get Fire Granet, but that shade is also nice.
Finally we have a Moisture Extreme Nude collection lipstick. It smells nice, like caramel/toffee (its name is Toffee cream ;D), the color is a bit too bright for everyday. I mean I like paler stuff (MAC High Tea), but with the right Eye make up it will look more healthy than High tea haha. Since it was free I love my gifts ;D Gonna post pics when I do looks, but Sunday will actually be my first free day this week urgh... to think that I'm only in university lol

  1. Hello, I have been looking at the Fashion Spot forum for almost a year now, I am especially interested in contributing to the iOffer Bags, LushFashionc.com... thread as I have bought many bags from the sellers you girls mention there (Jacky, etc.)... I would really like to post the pics of my bags and participate in the discussion. At the time, my bags are stuck at customs, I would really need some advice on that and I would really like to see the pics you post there (as a non-member, I can only see a limited number of pics :(). So I was wondering if you would be so kind as to send me an invite to the forum (the invitation code they ask during the registration process)? If you can, I would be extremely grateful... My email address is sandra_efzg@yahoo.com.

    Thank you in advance and may I add that u have a lovely blog, keep up the good work :)))

    Tnx,
    Sandra
