Random lip swatches, some Chanel and MAC

When I was digging through my old pics I discovered this one: The grey lips I made with MAC Myth lipstick and some MUFE Black lipstick and clear gloss.

The next one is Chanel Silex, notice the pink and gold sparkle on my pigmented lips. The gloss itself isn't so pigmented, the sparkle gives your lips some kind of glow though.

The last pic is a comparison of my latest lipgloss buys:

- MAC Dazzleglass in Money, Honey

- Chanel Glossimer in Silex (of which you can see the swatch above)

Both were worth their high price tag. Though MAC Dazzleglasses have that kind of packaging that let the content seem bigger... but Dazzleglasses are only around 2g, half of what you usually get in a MAC lipglass... and have a higher price tag...

Free L'Oréal Stuff - Part 2

Labeling my eyeshadows is quite time consuming... if you do it with MS paint like me ^^...so I figured I'd show you something else for now. As I participated at the L'Oréal Brandstorm challenge with two colleagues we received quite a bit of free stuff. Here is what we got in the final (we didn't win unfortunately). It's retail worth is around 180€ ^^

We mainly have hairstuff from the L'Oréal group. Of course Maybelline stuff and some other. So what's really useful for me is the clear Maybelline nail polish as it's serving as my base now. Then the mineral foundation is also nice, a little too pinkish for my complexion but the darkness is okay. The eyeshadows don't rock my boat as I'm used to intense MAC pigmentation... but oh well, I can use all of the products somehow. But honestly I wouldn't have bought any of the products. As for haircare, I don't need any with my thick straight Asian hair... but the L'Oréal brand playball hairgel is nice, and the Fructis shampoo smells soooo delicious like green apples. Yummy.

Woooohooo - finally BACK!

Well, this university term has been the hardest of all - graduation... And it's not over yet as I just submitted the first draft of my thesis. But I will have ~10 days of break until feedback and working on it again. Anyway, back to the good stuff. I've aquired a few pieced of cosmetics during that time... my newest one being MAC Smoke & Diamonds (due to hype, but it's a nice colour and sold out very quickly... I'm very happy I got it ^^). I also did an eyeshadow pic session as it always reminds me that I actually have too much stuff ö_Ö but powder doesn't go bad, so... yeah, will add color names to the pics and post some time later. Some of my other cosmetics (liquids, fragrances) are down in the cellar as it's damn hot in my room and the fridge is too small. See you later!
