It's Christmas time at PutYourMakeupOn!
Raelene and I had decided that after 5 years of friendship it was time for us to do a gift exchange. So that is what we did and this is what she got me!
I'm not exactly sure what brand it's by or what it's called but if I could take a guess, I'd say that it is called Sensuous by Tantra, which I haven't heard of. That's exciting!
This candle has an extremely distinct scent to it, it is quite erotic and actually reminds me exactly of orange peelings. On further look at the ingredients, I am correct and it had orange extracts as well as patchouli and cinnamon. It smells of everything that's listed. Normally I would find myself going for the sweeter scents so we will see how this pans out. First time for everything, right?! Not to mention that this candle it is SUPER small, barely even the size of a lipchap, yet has a burning time of 10 hours?? Talk about impressive!
These two little devils are both coconut scented and I LOVE coconut scented flavored anything! Raelene got me a coconut lipchap to relieve dry and chapped lips, and actually it fits perfectly as I work in a super dry area, I'm constantly applying vaseline to my lips so they stay moist! Now if it weren't for my cold I could tell you whether it smelled of coconut or not but from what I can still smell it does! 100% thumbs up!
Next there is an exfoliating coffee scrub in a coconut flavor as well. You really can't beat anything coffee and coconut flavored, mmm it smells so good! I'm really excited to try this out and give awesome feedback from it because I already know it is going to be great! you know, one of those feelings? :)
I was eyeing this Mac Holiday Collection set a few times as well but never got the nerve up to buy it for myself. Not only do I get 2 lipsticks but a case for them as well! Pretty awesome if you ask me. It comes in this sparkly box with inside a really nice red super sparkly zip up bag! Loving it! However this is probably not something you want to put in your traveling bag or purse for daily adventures it is more so something you keep on your dresser so it doesn't get damaged. The two colors you get in this set are Viva Glam 1 and 2 from the Rihanna collection in a frost sheen.
Viva Glam 1 is basically just a really nice vibrant red. I don't have very many reds in my collection so we will start trying to grab more of them and less purple! Maybe....
Viva Glam 2 is much harder to get a true to color photo. To me in person it looks like it's a silver shimmer. When swatched it looks a little bit Chrome-like with browns and purples. I'm going to take a stab and assume that it's all about what your skin tone is and what the lighting is like also. Regardless, I'm pretty excited to try this out on some days where I'm feeling a little bit funky. Who knows, it might turn out to be one of my favorites!
Even in a swatch it's coming out a little golden like on camera. I will call this the color of the mind~
This is what I got from Raelene and I love it all the same and I can't wait to give you my thoughts and opinions on these products!
Thank you Raerae (=^.^=) nyanya
