Sasa Haul + Reviews (ft. Liese + EOS)

Sorry for all the hauls these days! I'm not bragging or anything, just showing people things which they could find in certain shops ^^

Ok, I went to Sasa today + bought some stuff which are worth reviewing + mentioning about. First up, Liese hair products!

Liese Juicy Shower

I've read a lot of good reviews about this product. Seeing as I'm in HK atm, I decided to pick one up. It has a very nice berry scent which is a plus as I'm sure no one would want something smelly on their hair... ^^

It also makes my hair less frizzy + much more softer even after one use!

Highly recommended!

Liese Designing Jelly: II Swing Wave

I wasn't sure how to use this product at first but I just squeezed one pump onto my hand and put it though the ends of my hair. Then once it's evenly distributed, a scrunched my hair up in the palm of my hands + woah la! You have wavy hair! 

My hair is normally poker straight so I wasn't expecting this product to work but to my amazement, it worked extremely well! ^^

Next up, EOS

EOS Lip Balm Honeysuckle Honeydew

I've been wanting one of these since the very first time I saw photos of them. I never knew Sasa stocked EOS so I picked one up when I saw them on one of the counters. I found that the green EOS lip balm was the one that smelt the nicest but different opinions, different thoughts ^^

More hauls coming up soon probably!

World Duty Free Haul (ft. M.A.C + Tiffany & Co.)

I decided to do some shopping while in London Heathrow airport on my way to Hong Kong. I managed to pick up a few things I had in mind + here they are!

First up, my Tiffany & Co. necklace ^^

The necklace came in beautiful packaging. The necklace was placed into a Tiffany's pouch then placed into a box + finally secured with a white ribbon. They also put the receipt into a Tiffany's envelope!

Return to Tiffany

Mini Double Heart Tag Pendant Necklace

RRP: £66 (airport price)

The pendant was a lot smaller than expected but only because I never realized that the Return to Tiffany pendant was a 'mini' size. The necklace chain length is 16" which is a bit short but I'm not too fussed about it. Overall, I'm really happy with this necklace. My first Tiffany's + hoping for more in the future! ^^

Last but not least, M.A.C ~

L-R: Lip Conditioner SPF 15, Select Moisturecover 

I was super excited to visit the M.A.C store in the airport as I live no where that sells M.A.C. I managed to pick up two products.

RRP: £9.35 (airport price)

The scent of this lip conditioner is heavenly! It smells of vanilla + makes my lips feel super soft. Highly recommended for those looking for a lip conditioner! ^^ 

RRP: £11.45 (airport price)

I've been looking for a concealer with moisture for quite a while now as my face can get dry at times + this concealer was perfect! It applies on well as it is liquid based with a wand brush. I also love the fact that it doesn't go flaky if applied onto dry skin as my face can get dry at times. 

Highly recommended!

That's all for now, hoping to buy a few more goodies in Heathrow airport on my way back from Hong Kong! ^^

I managed to buy a few M.A.C goodies from World Duty Free while at the airport and some other stuff. A small airport haul will be up soon!

OPI Nail Polish Haul + Swatches

I haven't blogged for quite a while now + I'm sorry for that. Been a bit busy with school work etc as exams are coming up after the Easter Holidays. 

Anyway, moving on to the main subject. I have an OPI haul! I managed to grab a few OPI goodies on sale in Sallys yesterday ^^

OPI ~ My Daddy's the King!

RRP: £8.99 £3.49

OPI Princess Minis 

RRP: £12.15 £4.49

L-R: Bubble Bath, Alpine Snow, Pink-ing of You, RapiDry Top Coat

Great bargains don't cha think? ^^

Swatches:

OPI My Daddy's the King!

This is a shimmery pink/nude colour. Applied with 2-3 coats so I would say it's not very sheer! Great for those who love pinks or nudes + love a bit of shimmer ^^

L-R: Alpine Snow, Pink-ing of You, Bubble Bath

You can actually use Alpine Snow as a tip for French manicure but I decided to do apply it onto my nail to see what it would look like on it's own. It's quite nice, but a little too bold for me ^^

 Pink-ing of You is quite similar to Nails Inc's Warwick Avenue. It's a cute pink colour, great for pink lovers!

Bubble Bath is a very sheer nude. Probably not as sheer as OPI's Samoan Sand though. It's a great nude, great for daily wear.

I hope I don't start an OPI addiction... I'm starting to become really interested in OPI nail polishes these days! 

What's your favourite OPI nail polish?

Review: Longchamp Le Pliage Tote Bag

I'm very happy to announce my purchase of my very first designer bag! It arrived through the post today + I am super happy with it! So here it is, it's the Longchamp Les Pliage Tote bag ^^

I purchased this tote bag in size large, black colour + with long handles. It's great for those who always travel as you can easily fold it up to fit into your suitcase. The handles + flap are made of authentic leather and the rest is made of nylon. They are also very lightweight, waterproof + aren't crazily expensive for a designer/leather bag ^^

As you can see, inside is very spacious. A good thing for those who carry a lot of things with them! ^^

The Les Pliage bags are also available in sizes small + medium + in a wide variety of colours! Also available with short or long handles. Check them out here:

What do you guys think of the bag? ^^

NOTD: OPI Last Friday Night (Katy Perry Collection)

Okay, I was 'attempting' to not put any nail polish onto my nails till I go to Hong Kong which is 2-3 weeks away but I just couldn't help myself! I managed only two days with nothing on my nails + I just had the sudden urge to repaint my nails today. 

So this is what I'm wearing!

Last Friday Night

From OPI's Katy Perry Collection

Last Friday Night is a very sheer blue glittery polish. I would probably apply this over a light blue polish next time but I currently don't have any light blue polishes. 

If you'd rather wear this on it's own, you would have to apply A LOT of coats for the blue to turn out. Although it may look very blue in the bottle, it is very sheer so don't be fooled if you want a visible blue glittery polish!

Overall, I don't mind it. The color is okay, great for applying over other colors though ^^

What do you think of Last Friday Night?
