Lust Have It June 2012

Finally my Lust have it pack arrived today in the mail.
The box was very plain and light and got delivered straight into my lettebox.

 1+2. Lon Vitalite 24K Active Gold face mask and eye mask. RRP $59 and $45 for the pack of 5.
This mask sounds very luxurious. It supposed to promote micro-circulation, repair sun damage etc. etc. you get the picture :) I just need a "me" day when I can indulge in manicures and pedicures and masks for my hair, face, eyes and body.
 3. Batiste Dry Shampoo. Very cute and handy but it was done before many many times. I don't consider it as "luxury" sample as you can pick up FS for under $10.
 4. Bloom Glitter Eye Liner - RRP $14.95
IMO the only full sized product in this box. It is very cute but quite impractical, I can see myself reaching for it once in a blue moon.
 5. Roberto Cavalli EDP
Very very heavy scent, even for winter. It is not that bad but unfortunately it gives me headache.
 6. Marc Jacobs Lola EDP
Yep, another EDP sample. This one is not as heavy but very floral. Still not my cup of tea. Apparently they were also giving out Daisy and Daisy Eau So Fresh. I wish I got one of those instead. I've been wanting to try them for ages.

Overall I feel like LHI is heading in the same direction as other similar companies. I wasn't particularly excited about any products in this box. I still have lots of other samples to try so I will be unsubscribing for now.

    The Bloom Glitter Eye Liner is very nice, I have it in silver and would wear it daily (though don't due to allergies), got it for $5 at the bloom sale. :)

    Lola is very nice, though not as amazing as Daisy.

    it's a bummer that most of the products were subpar~ weird they would put 2 perfumes in a box.. you'd think they would put nail polish or something different. i've wanted to try the batiste dry shampoo for awhile now! heh keep in touch <3

Happy Birthday Barbie!

Image
Barbie turned 53 today! She changed a lot in 53 years and I must say she got better with age In 1959 she looked like this: Beautiful, pale and stylish In 1960's Barbie was quite conservative and traditional as a Nurse and French Fashionista In 1970's iconic Malibu Barbie emerged. In my opinion she started the whole "Barbie" trend - tanned skin, blonde hair and long legs. She also came with a BF Ken and camper van Barbie industry was going strong in 80's. She appeared in vast range of outfist and collections From sweet Peaches n Cream To Over-The-Top Rocker Barbie and Holiday Barbies I grew up in 90's. I remember my best friend's sister brought this one home from Italy in 1991 It was in the former Soviet State and Barbies were very rare and highly prized so to me it was the most beautiful thing ever. Totally Hair Barbie and Teresa were very popular This add used to mesmerise me, it was played during Disney series as well as Hollyw

Buyers Beware - Fake OPI nail polish!

Image
Fake anything especially make-up makes me very angry! Yesterday I was browsing Ebay because I wanted to get some OPI nail polishes and came across few clearly fake ones. I got few OPIs from Ebay and never had an issue. Mine came from US sellers who charged US retail prices for their polishes. They sold lots and lots of them and seemed to specialize in nail products. Yesterday I came across few lots of "OPI" nail polishes. I saw fair dew lots from sellers who don't particularly specialize in nail products. They were "factory seconds" and were missing a label. The shades were very random and I never saw those shades in OPI collections. However I know that some counterfeit OPIs will have a lable with colour name on it. I was fortunate enough and never got a fake OPI nail polish . So I will show you what a REAL one looks like. 1. The front of the bottle Note the writing. There are some variations between old and new editions of OPI but the writing at t

I had my Tragus pierced today!

Image
It is something I wanted to do for few week now. I always liked the look of multiple earrings and even pierced a second hole in my ear when I was 11 (which then I took out and it eventually healed). Tragus piercing to me looked very appealing but painful. However after speaking to few people who had it done I realised it doesn't seem to be as bad. Today I summoned my courage and called Cosmetics Plus at Carindale. They told me to come in as Fridays are usually not very busy. I've applied plenty of EMLA numbing cream on the area 30 min before (however I was told it is best to apply it 45 to 60 min prior). The whole process took 10 minutes and set me back $35 including the earring.     The girl who did my piercing was very nice and friendly. She first marked the spot with a marker pen and asked if I was happy with the placement, I've decided that I wanted it a bit lower hence why you can see a bit of ink residue above the piercing. Then she disinfected the area and a
