Santa Claus is comin to town ..

Aww today I spent my day off with Jarren. We went to my doctors appointment, had lunch and then headed to pearlridge! After a long time of shopping He got to get on the kiddie train and see Santa! I got more christmas shopping done! I even managed to get Some of Jarrens gifts while my uncle kept an eye on him in the car. Gooodie! & of course went shopping for me! lol I couldnt help it Pearlridges mall blows ours.. I stopped at MAC, Sephora and Forever 21 for me. Im excited about the products I purchased today. Lately my skin has been going completely out of whack. I usually have normal to oily skin, its dry. so dry it hurts =/ So Im starting a new skin regimen! & Ill update you on how it goes eventually.

Sidenote: Once reviewed products, I will update this post in red sidenotes like this note is done.

Lashes #35


Even thought I wasnt able to get my discount without my card handy, I picked up The 35s because I barely get around to going to an actual store where there sold. I love these and cant wait to try them. One of the girls I works with always wears them and ive been waiting to get some!

These are super sassy, retro and classy. Dramatic but still natural at the same time!


SEPHORA
Pro Dual sharpener
$3.00

Its hilarious how many sharpeners I lose. I got like 10 in my TRUE makeup kit from Cosmo school and had like 3 in my makeup bag just a few weeks ago and now, NONE! So i picked up this little cute one. Big enough to hopefully not lose to soon but hopefully it sharpens everything without ruining my pencils!

Fresh
Soy Face Cleanser
$38.00 5.1 oz

I have a special place in my heart for this product! I used to use it when I lived in downtown SF right down the street from the Fresh Store on Powell. I heart that place! Every ones so friendly and recently they actually called me to offer a job opening but since I moved to Hawaii, no longer possible =/ This product works really well. Great for all skin types. When I used it before in San Francisco, It worked well for my normal - oily skin so since my skin is now sensitive and dried out, Im excited to use it, my other products have been to harsh lately. Its lightweight, smells pretty and should be the best thing to help me skin right now!

FIRST AID BEAUTY F.A.B
Ultra Repair Cream
$15.00 2.5 oz

Like I said, my skin is dried out right now. So I ventured off into sephora for a moisturizer that will replenish and hydrate my dried out face! I found this, The packaging is cute and so is the design. Its used to hydrate dry, parched skin. Sounds like my problem, This cute little older asian lady gave me her input on it she said she uses it on the dry parts of her face and she loves it so Im super excited to try it! I dont always have dry skin but I figure it will come in handy when i get sun burned or am in desperate need of a pedi and cant get around to it.


DIOR
Instant gentle Exfoliant
$38.00 2.6 oz

After getting help with the moisturizer I tracked down the same woman in Sephora to help me pick a new exfoliant. Something that will be nice to my sensitive face for the time being but good to really get down and clean it. I followed her to this product and she explained the benefits and how its ALWAYS sold out, and I did get the last one. I tried a bit on my hand, scrubbed away and then wiped, and yes it was soft but the grains in the exfoliant were very gentle and she said its safe for everyday use as well!

I also picked up a pair of black leggings for work from forever21 but couldn't find a picture online. there cute, there's a cute little supposedly leather patch on both sides. That ends my personal shopping list but glad to say I can also cross seveal people off the Christmas shopping list. Oh & I just got done ordering the Holiday picture cards for the fam!
Til next time..
Toodles
