Thanksgiving/Birthday/BlackFriday

Thanksgiving
In the morning, I went to Manhattan Beach for a morning workout. I wanted to do something so I can stuff myself and not feel guilty about my weight. This year I decided to spend thanksgiving with my boyfriends family. We usually have thanksgiving at my place during lunch and go to my boyfriends house for dinner but this year my dad prepared everything late so I just went to my boyfriends. They make thanksgiving enough for the day instead of the american way with eating leftovers for a week.

Black Friday
The stores this year wanted to start early. Target and Walmart decided to open 8pm & 9pm on thanksgiving. After dinner at boyfriends, we took a nap and woke up at midnight. We drove to Del Amo mall. The mall was extremely packed. More so this year than last. The longest line I saw was Urban Outfitters. The line for H&M was long as well so we decided to skip on that and headed towards Express. The entire store was 50% off (OMG). Sean bought a 2 collar shirts and a winter jacket. I bought myself a fur collar. My mom gave me $100 to buy my sister a few tops. We came back home at 1am, went to bed, then woke up again at 6am. We checked out JCP which was a fail. Too crowded and all the items we wanted were sold out. I was like "fuck this" and I drove to Century City mall near Beverly Hills. The mall was empty. I loved it. I could shop in peace. H&M still had their 5,7,10,20 dollar deals available. That is unheard of at Del Amo HA! Sean bought new shoes from Zara, shirts from H&M, and new running shoes from New Balance. We both bought clothing from Hollister for relatives in Japan. Birthday UGH. Another year older. My birthday falls on blackfriday. Last year was thanksgiving. LOL. How did I spend my birthday? Well by shopping of course :) The day passed by so fast.

Sparkle Lip Gloss in Sparkle Pink by JANE

When I first opened my glambag I thought this color would be too red for me. Turns out pink on my skin. I love how it's super sparkly. The gloss is highly pigmented and very glossy (sticky). The gloss comes in a trio pack for $9.99

Mirabella Eyeshadow - Semiformal

I received Semiformal eyeshadow by Mirabella from my september subscription from Ipsy (formally myglam).


Packaging: Ugh. Cheap packaging. They wrap the eyeshadow in a cardboard envelope with a clear circular window to see the color.

Color: It's a shimmery copper color. Neutral color that can go with pretty much anything. I really like it.

Retail price: $10.00. Too expensive and not worth it. Plus it doesn't come with a case so it's hard to store unless you have an extra empty space from your other eyeshadow palettes'.

Circus by Andrea's Choice - Tightrope

Got another nail polish from myglam called Tightripe from Circus by Andrea's Choice. This is my third one I received from myglam. I wonder if they'll send more shades to complete the set (only two more shades left). The color is a neon purple shade. It really stands out when I wear it. It only took 2 coats to achieve this color but the next day it started chipping.

Product Info
Each chip-resistant shade is:
❤ Vegan
❤ Cruelty free
❤ Free of Formaldehyde, Toluene and DBP.
❤ 13.2 ml

September Glambag

It's november and here I am talking about September's glambag. Now you guys know I'm really behind on posts. I'll be staying in dorms this weekend to work on my art project. Might post more old news if I have the time.

What I got:
❤ London SOHO New York Smudge Brush
❤ Jane Sparkle Gloss
❤ Circus by Andre's Choice Nail Polish
❤ Carol's Daughter Monoi Repairing Split End Sealer
❤ Mirabella Eye Colour



The new make-up bag is a huge improvement from the previous mesh-type ones. The equality doesn't look cheap and I feel like I can use it has a purse wristlet. The SOHO brush is pretty useful. I can make a smokey eye look with this. Got another nail polish from Andrea's Choice (review will be posted next). I have to try out the mirabella and monoi items soon.

Halloween

I woke up super early (6am) to prepare for halloween. Why so early? I have to make the 7:30a campus shuttle. Surprisingly putting on the wig took longer than applying make-up: Wig (30mins) & make-up (10mins). I was on campus the whole day and I swear only 3 people dressed up. I guess they were gonna dress up for the big campus halloween party that night.

I didn't feel like dancing so I took my friend Chelsea to Downtown Disney. We just walked around and checked out the shops.




They are already preparing for Christmas! It's barely november!
Checked out Sephora. Saw this gorgeous Cinderella display. If I wasn't saving money for my winter trip, I would totally buy the eyeshadow palette. It's $55 >.<

Bye!
