Possible Giveaway Items!! :3

Hey guys!! So I feel like I've been mia for whatever reason.

SOOOO I recently went shopping (and by recently I mean today) and I picked up a few things to possibly giveaway! :3 When I say possible, I mean depending how active you guys are with the blog ;3 Cause you will have to do stuff to win them xD

So now is the time I post pictures of things I bought :3


So this first item is a little makeup bag! Probably the size of my hand :P On the back it's just plain hot pink. You could probably use this as a wallet or something too tho.




And here we have another makeup bag! I wanted to show you both sides of this one :3
This one is bigger so you could easily hold your eyeliner pencils and brushes in it. It's really adorable and I was tempted to buy another for myself before I realized I already have a cute little makeup bag. :D
(It's plausible that I'd be filling these with cute little items too)

So the next item I bought is this pretty little necklace that says 'YEAH'
The colors is probably what drew me to this. It's smooth too, so it won't snag on your clothes!

This is a bracelet! Duh. I thought it was really adorable and I think cupcakes are super cute (and yummy)
I actually have other bracelets like this that I'm in love with. I don't suggest wearing these with tight hoodies though cause I've gotten a few scrapes from them xD But if you're just wearing a normal t-shirt then it's totally fine!

And of course; THE HELLO FREAKING KITTY GLASSES.
They're still in the packaging too. xD

I'm unsure if I'll give each out separately but I'll probably just pick two winners and combine some of the prizes. :3 I just wanted to show you guys them!! ^__^
Have a lovely day and keep on smiling!!

Tony Moly Cats Wink Mascara Review!!

So I recently did a review on some bb cream, and I actually enjoyed doing it. Everyone's skin and preference is different, so reading multiple reviews is always good. :3

Today I'm going to be reviewing; 
Tony Moly Cats Wink Mascara


I first found this item on instagram, and instantly looked it up.

The packaging; 
The packaging is the cutest thing ever. Every time I pull it out in public, at work, or around family, everyone always asks about it.
The wand is perfect as well. It's smaller than what I'm used to, but it took no time to get used to!

(the wand)

The product;
I wasn't expecting a lot from it honestly. I had recently been using Maybelline New Yorks Lash Blast prior which worked great. But I decided after two years that I could switch it up.

I found that the Cats Wink Mascara gives my lashes more of a fake lash effect, which I love. I'm one of those people who cannot put on fake lashes to save my life.
Another thing I found was that if you are looking for the natural lash effect, you can still achieve it with this magnificent mascara! ^__^
One coat will do the job for natural lashes, and for the fake lash effect, I usually use about 3-4 coats and curl my lashes prior as well.

There are two separate formulas for this mascara as well. 
One for volume and long lashes (i use this one) and the other for curling and long lashes.
I already curl my lashes so I didn't think I would bother with it.

Overall;
I highly recommend this mascara to anyone and everyone.
The only downfall is that you do need to purchase it online. (click here to purchase it :3 free shipping + free gifts!! ^__^)

I can't say enough about this product. It's one of my favorites and I will for sure be rebuying it.
(it's also not tested on animals yay!)

Garnier BB Cream Review!!

Hey everyone!

A few months ago I discovered the Garnier BB Cream and was SO excited. I had been looking for one to try in hopes to cut down my time spent on makeup.
The first time looking for it, I had no luck. Partly because I didn't know what it looked like. And if you don't either, I'll include a picture.


The second time when I found it, they only had the dark one. So if you have lighter skin like I do, it might be a little bit harder to find. But just keep looking! :)

Onto the review;

The first time I tried it, I thought it felt a little bit oily which I wasn't a fan of as I have oily skin already. I went with it anyways. When I got home, because of the excess oil, I had a BUNCH of breakouts all over.
I was extremely disappointed and left it in my makeup drawer for a few days before deciding to give it a second go.

Now that was a few months ago. I am currently on my second tube of it as I discovered the trick to using it ;)
Whether you have oily skin or not, I would definitely recommend a translucent powder for sure.
The one I've been using with the BB Cream is the Tony Moly Cats Wink Compact (I'll include a picture at the bottom)

Another thing to keep in mind is that if you're looking for full coverage, then this isn't for you. I have acne scars and my skin after being washed is pretty red, and I'd say it has about medium/light coverage.
My acne scars do look lighter, but are still visible. But the redness is always completely gone after.

Overall; 

I don't recommend this specific BB cream if you're not going to be using a powder over it or if you're self-concious about acne(scars). But if you're using a powder like I do, I think it's totally worth a shot! I really love it and I'll most likely be purchasing a third tube soon ;)
