It's May!

I can't believe it's already May! I have about 4 weeks until the completion date for my degree, OMG! The pressure is on! What am I doing, blogging?!
I'm in denial, that's what. And procrastinating. LOL let's just call it de-stressing, shall we? In all seriousness though, I think it's time to take advantage of Blogger's scheduling function. Quite a nifty little idea, although hardly original in my mind.

May also means Mother's Day, and there's certainly an increase in the number of Mother's Day themed posts as the weekend draws nearer. I'm a terrible daughter and hardly ever get my mum anything on Mother's Day (my excuse is that we're in different countries). But the MOR Essentials "Essentially Yours" gift set seems like a popular choice amongst bloggers. I've not tried any of their products, but I am really tempted to pick up a set after reading so many glowing reviews of MOR products. The price seems really reasonable too.

But would she use it? Hmmmm...

Pretty & Cute haul

I ordered some stuff from Pretty & Cute at the start of the month, in order to take advantage of a Lioele coupon code from From Head To Toe (it's in the sidebar somewhere). The package took roughly 12 days to reach me. I was super excited, because I'd ordered my first ever BB creams! I wanted to get something to use in place of foundation, that's quicker to apply, and still give me some coverage.

Package!

My order came in a small compact box, with the little styrofoam peanuts to fill in the spaces. What I got:

Lioele products

From Lioele, gel eye liner (black), Blooming Shimmer Pearl Base (pink), Beyond the Solution BB cream (30 ml). That is also my first ever gel liner. Yes, I've never used a gel eye liner before! :/ Sorry for being a noob!

Skin79 BB cream

Skin79 VIP Gold Super Plus Beblesh Balm. I actually really wanted the hot pink version, but they were sold out at the time. But from reading the reviews, the gold version might suit my skin type (normal/combination) better.

Missha M Perfect BB cream

Missha M Perfect BB cream in #23 Natural Beige. Hoping that this is a good match for me! I would hazard that I'm a NC20-25? I've never tried MAC foundations either so I don't know.

Lioele sample

They also included a small sample of Lioele Secret Pore Rich Balm.

The card

Their card. Definitely would repurchase from them, postage didn't take too long, considering I went with the cheapest option, and they are based in the States. The whole process was pretty painless, and quick.

Omake~!

My makeup table

My makeup table. I had just tidied it, couldn't help taking a picture! Of course it looks a lot messier now. :p
