Small gifts to myself :)

Isn't the ring beautiful? I bought it from an amazing Etsy Seller.
Her store is called Delezhen :) There is a sale going on and you can use
the code FBSEP10 or INSTAGRAM10 to get 10% off your purchase!
I think it ends until the last day of September? I'm not sure...

I bought the Rainbow Moonstone. I fell in love with it the first time I saw it. I love it!
Shipping was very quick to Canada, it took less than a week! :) Her rings sell for $43+

Seriously... I've been wanting this Rodin Lip Balm for the past 2 years...
and I finally bought it!!! I love the packaging, although it is a little difficult to open ><
It is a little overpriced for a lip balm, but $28 is the lowest price I have found online.
I bought it from the Kiss and Makeup New York store online :) I've seen it being sold
in Canada for $31+ which is a little ridiculous... then you have to add tax.


I'm sure some of you have been wondering what my nails look like recently lol :p
I am learning how to do Shellac, so I finally had the time to do a full shellac manicure
on myself yesterday :) I'm very happy with the result! :)

Colour: Shellac 'Cocoa Puff + Moonlight & Roses'
Design: Konad M62

Here is a very short Casual Outfit video! :)

Prada Shielding Balm Lip Tints

I decided to get the Shades 1 and 7. I wanted to get 2 more shades, but they
are extremely hard to find. I bought these from eBay. You can find various
sellers who sell the shielding balms from Amazon or eBay :) The Nordstrom
website sells them as well, but the last time I checked, they were sold out ><
There aren't too many photos of the product online, so I decided to pick up 2 :)
I also did some small swatches. Tint 1 is on the top, a brown/nude shade which
I tried on and thought it was ok... I thought it would be lighter. I like Tint 7 though :)
You can never go wrong with a pink tint :) They're quite thick so you only need a
little bit from the tube. They're also tiny! they're just over 1.5" big (vertically) :p

I honestly don't know what possessed me to buy these :p
I fell for the packaging and the brand >> they're also great
to carry around in your purse. I'm a minimalist after all :p
They were around $8 each more or less >>

Beauty Must-Have

I need lip balm, all the time >< my lips are always so dry and chapped =[ I am also up to trying new lip balms, especially organic/natural brands. I am currently using the Labello/Nivea Hydro Care and the Burt's Bees Beeswax lip balm. They are both pretty good.

Labello (also known as Nivea)
It does what it says, keeps my lips moisturized for at least an hour when I'm inside. It doesn't last as long when I leave the house though because of the cold weather we have here in Canada... wth -.- it's spring and we have snow =[ but surprisingly it lasts up to 2 hours when I was on the plane back in January. I would apply it after every meal/drink they gave us on the plane... it really did save my lips lol

Burt's Bees
I tried this a few years ago and loved it, mainly for the minty feeling after applying. The peppermint is really apparent, which I love <3 it doesn't last that long though >< this would be perfect for spring/summer because of the cooling sensation it leaves on the lips. I use this at night before I go to sleep. Love it <3

and here is a peak at what I wore today, just cleaning my room and working on projects ><

Honeydew EOS lipbalm

So cute and adorable!!! lol I originally wanted the Sweet Mint flavour but I couldn't find it on eBay without being overly expensive >> I also wanted the new Lemon Drop one but I ended up picking the Honeydew because I don't have anything Honeydew scented/flavoured and I really like the scent =]

The lip balm itself isn't so great because it doesn't seem to last long and no matter how much I put on or layer... doesn't seem to even be layering >< but I love the packaging and is really cute =p so I actually wouldn't mind using it all the time XD which is good in a way because I only put on lip balm in the morning and at night before I sleep... this will help me keep my lips moisturized... somewhat throughout the day... although it fades away in like 10 minutes >>
