(sorry for the blurry photos)- Blu-ray pressed powder in Beige
- Reverse Lipliner in 01 Light
- Beach Blush in Sunset Beach
I also entered the coupon code "BERARE" and got a free 10-day trial bareminerals SPF 15 foundation
Unfortunately I purchased the Benefit's To Go Beauty Bestsellers ($11 CAD) like 2 days before finding out about the Cargo :( Anyways, I entered the coupon code "GLITTER" and got a Glitter Shimmer Pot in silver for free. You can choose between gold and silver (sorry about the blurry photos, my other camera's battery needs charging)
Recently, I went to a warehouse sale for Aveda in Toronto. When I got there, it wasn't really a wearhouse lol..it was just a regular store with some sale items. Anyways, I still think it was a great sale as I purchased some items. I got the Caribbean Rejuvenation package for $21.75 (at 40% off). I also purchased lipstick and some glitter, but forgot to take the photo :\ I'm really in love with the scent of this collection ..mmm
I also went to Pharmaplus to check out if they had the Revlon PhotoReady Foundation in stock..and they did! I was quite surprised. They currently have a promo going on:
So I purchased the photoready and the lady at the counter (cosmetician?) came up to me and was telling me that I should purchase a new cleanser or moisturizer because my skin was dry lol :\ I ended up getting the Bioderma Sensibio H20. I read some good reviews on Makeupalley.com, so I'm happy about the purchase. Apparently this product was showcased on the news recently and they were sold out for a while..hm.. 
As for the photoReady - not bad..feels light on the skin and the sparkles aren't bad at all. If you look closely at my eyelids you can notice them, but it's really not that bad. I think I should have gotten a shade lighter though. I'm thinking it will work out better for my summer skin :)
Great haul, I love that Beach Blush in Sunset Beach, the colors look so pretty, does ur skin get oily after using Revlon photo ready and does it increase ur pores, I actually want to get one since everyone says it's a great stuff, thanks for ur answer in advance^^
ReplyDeleteThanks :) So I have only tried it twice so I don't know how accurate my answer will be. Yesterday I had it on for maybe half a day, today pretty much full day and interestingly enough, my face really isn't that oily. Usually (my forehead especially) is quite shiny by the end of the day, but as of right now, it's not so bad at all! Also..sometimes the my foundation slides, but not with this one! As for pores, it does not accentuate my pores at all, if anything it covers them quite nicely. Usually by the end of the day, you can start to see my pores around my nose. Now, the not-so-good stuff. I noticed that it has settled into the dry patches of my skin and you can see the skin 'flakes'? I don't know how to describe it. I suppose I should be getting a different moisturizer since it's winter...or maybe I didn't allow it to settle in today (I was in a rush). Anyways, the other non-dry areas of my face are totally fine, just those dry patches =\
ReplyDeleteFYI - used the skin prep fx primer before and MUFE HD powder after
I hope it works out for you! :)
