PYMUO hasn't been following the July Beauty Challenge but since I haven't done a Friday Favorites post I figured it would be a great time to do it during the beauty challenge.

 

Welcos Miracle Argan Oil Treatment you can pick up at www.roseroseshop.com.  I literally use this every single time I get out of the shower without fail.  It is a holy grail through and through.

Lush R&B hair moisturizer.  I had a sample of this and used it all up and had to pick up a full size because it is really just that great!  I only use a tiny bit after every single shower.  If overused it will make your hair appear greasy.

I rave a lot about hair products so there are a few repeats from around the blog but that's because I really do love them and what they do.

Tokyomilk body wash and cream in the scent Yesterday.  I added this in because of the smell it has even though the product itself works really well.  If you're looking for an exotic scent that not many people have, this is where you want to go. Uh oh! It looks like they are discontinuing the Tokyomilk Dark line. 

Lush Massage Bar in Pearl.  I absolutely am in love with this scent and will repurchase until I get sick of it.  I also love how it makes my skin feel really soft and moisturized after showers for long periods of time.

Cheek Room Lip Balm in Cherry.  I got this in a memebox a while back and really love how it makes my lips really shiny but not too sticky at the same time.  I also love how after a while it will tint your lips to a nice bright but not too overpowering pink, it's a great summer color!

Mac lippies in Cyber, Sin, and Diva.  These are all fairly dark colors as my go to lip color is generally dark because I love a pop.  Sooner or later I am going to be making a post on all of my Mac lippies including swatches.

Ah, movies.  My favorite movie of all time forever and ever is Lilo & Stitch!  I have a picture of just Stitch! because I couldn't find the original movie.  But basically, I have a shrine of everything Stitch.  Divergent is one of my favorite movies as well.  Can Four and Triss just become an IRL couple, PLEASE!! I want to live Divergent.

Bath and Body Works parfum in the scent Forever Red.  I love how this is very young lady, chic and fruity smell.  It's a really nice casual perfume as well as a going out perfume.  Very versatile.

This is probably my favorite cloth face mask to date.  It adds moisture to your skin which is perfect for winter seasons and anybody in Canada knows that we have pretty bad winters and we need to be prepared at all times! NextBeau Aqua Moisture pack.

I will just add this in here because you know who you are.

Well this is an old one but I don't know where I would be without her.  She's my favorite in the whole world!

I don't use a whole lot and was actually waiting for more of my products to completely finish because I have a few that are nearly shot.  Instead I just decided that I could do this empties post and do another one at a later date because apparently it takes me a long time to use up products.

• I have sporadic insomnia so I always like to keep a bottle of Melatonine on hand because it's really annoying having to lay in bed all night and not get a wink of sleep.  I've had this bottle since last summer so it's lasted me about a year. 
• Bath and Body Works Peach Bellini hand soap. <3 
• Q-tips.  I use them for everything, literally everything.  These are such handy things I swear I have abut 3 more boxes empty somewhere and like 5 more on the go.
• Tampons because well... you know the routine.

•  Mint Julips lip scrub, Absolutely loved it and will be buying it again eventually.
• Veganese hair conditioner sample size.  I'm sure I have more empty sample sizes but lost the containers.  We can count this sample size with all the others as well.
• BB Seaweed face mask.  I have more empty face masks too.

•  Nature Republic Argan Essential hair pack.  This was an entire tub and I used it up within a few months of buying it.  I ordered this on roseroseshop, not to mention it was super cheap.  I highly recommend this website for all of your Asian needs. 
• Etude House super collagen cream.  Not only is this travel sized, it's also extremely multi-functional.

Again, I probably have had more of these, this one just happens to be the package I kept.

Gourmet Espresso candle from the Christmas collection at Bath and Body works.

At first I was skeptical about doing an empties post because I feel that it's kind of cliche, but now I realize what the whole craze about it is.  A lot of these products if not all of them I used up entirely for a reason and that's because they're really good at their jobs and I just loved them.

After a hectic work week just before Christmas all I want to do is sit and relax. Grab a couple of your favourite magazines, in my case Cosmopolitan, and look at a few pictures, read a few articles.  My favourites are what's new in fashion, makeup and we all talk and read about it, the sex articles. 

The candle I'm burning is from Bath and Body Works called Champagne Toast.   It has an extremely mild sweet scent, it doesn't scent up the entire room, just kind of well, there.
For my face mask I decided to try a peel off mask by -417 Dead Sea Cosmetics.  This masks purpose is to cleanse your skin of your dead cells and makeup.  I noticed on the box it says to leave it on for 20 minutes but in French it says to leave on for 15 minutes.  My suggestion is to just leave it on until you feel comfortable and it can be easily peeled off.

So the product is in liquid form and that is exactly how you apply it.  Be cautious on how thick it gets applied as well as the thicker it is the longer it will take to be able to peel off.  After it's been on for a few minutes your skin will start to feel cold, that's how you know it's working!  I personally find this feeling very soothing and relaxing. While applying be sure to not get it in your eyebrows or eyelid! I have no set time for how long I keep the mask on, just peel it off when it has dried.   It feels like you're peeling off a layer of dead skin off, some may find it weird some may like that feeling, just a matter of opinion.  As far as the results for this mask, my face feels like a baby's bum it is that smooth!  I really like this mask plus it is something different from what I usually do and change is a good thing.

Tonights lipstick features Rebel from the Macs Holiday collection.  If you miss this colour you can still get your hands on it from the regular collection as well.
When I had bought this colour it reminded me of Macs Cyber but a little bit lighter so I had compared it to that.  On first impressions of this color I notice it is a lot more violet than anything and a bit lighter than expected.  However, still a great color for any collection I think I just expected it to be darker!  This is a color I would wear in the summertime.  It goes on smooth and evenly which is one of the first things I look for in a lipstick.  So first thoughts, I do like this lipstick just wish it was a bit darker!

For the longest time I have been really wanting to get into the 'big city' to have some retail therapy.  Ever since taking on another job I've been pretty busy nonstop and it can get really exhausting.  I have also been wanting more Lush in my collection from my last shopping haul.  Apparently on top of Lush, I got a lot more other items, maybe more than what I initially would have liked but this is what happened and here is the damage. 

The first store we went to was Target.  Since they are going out of business all of their product is at least at 25% off, that's a pretty good deal so I picked up a few things there.

The DVD's were all 40% off, even new releases!  How awesome of a deal is that? I don't purchase hard copies of movies unless it is one of my favorites and two of them just so happened to be on sale at Target.  I don't have a Blu-Ray so normally would  go for the DVD option, but because now they seem to be making the DVDs cheaper I figured why not just go for the Blu-Ray option as it's already so much taken off as it is.  Not to mention in Gone Girl you also got the Amazing Amy book to go along.  This was a steal in my opinion, especially if you are a collector like me.

Because of my hectic life and always being on the go I almost always have a bookbag with me to carry everything that I need just on a daily basis.  With that being said, I did need a smaller bag just for casual downtime instead of carrying my entire life around with me in a bookbag-you can get some weird looks.  My wallet was also getting a little old as well and just felt the need for a change.  On second thoughts about the bag I noticed that it looks like a baby's bag of some sort, oh well I can still rock it.. for a little while anyway.  Other than that I really like the wallets I chose however if you are looking to get quality these are probably not for you.  These wallets are really flimsy and probably should only be used as a fashion accessory/statement.  The bag seems to be better built than the wallets but it is all on ones preference really. 

I've never seen these my entire life!  Really curious to see if they actually work as it says they're supposed so.

Just some random miscellaneous stuff I grabbed.  A couple of mud masks, packs of q-tips an EOS lip balm and some grid paper for my sister, it might be useful for her in a few years for school.

I've been curious for a while how Pixi works as well as intrigued by the cute packaging they have.  I thought I had an eyelid primer in my cart as well but upon looking at the receipt apparently I didn't toss it in- ah well maybe next time.  I've stopped to look at the L'oreal Fibralogy hair thickening product at my local Sobeys quite a few times and was planning on buying it at some point but for a little over 10$ I just couldn't justify it maybe working.  At Target, it was substantially under 10$ and the liquidation percent on top of that, sold!

Also I couldn't forget to grab some granola. 

If you live in Canada and have a Target on liquidation near to you, the sales are actually not as good as they will get.  As far as I'm concerned the only thing worth getting at this point are DVD's and high demand items such as electronics and makeup or your day-to-day essentials if you need them.  These prices will go down substantially, everything takes time. 

The only thing I got at H&M was this rollerball perfume.  Not because it was only 3$ but the Macadamia smells like sweet Vanilla, I nearly fell in love.

If you live anywhere near the Maritimes you know just how much I want winter to be over and done with.  Well I can dream, right?

 I thought this was super cute at Bath and Body works, these are Aloe infused lounging socks.

I love their cleansing hand soaps and when this one was on for $3.50 I just had to have it!  Plus yet again it helps me remember that summer will be coming, eventually! Let's not forget that it does have a touch of coconut smell to it, and we all know I love coconut. 

Not really much of a hand sanitizer person but I figured I'd give it a try because they are so cheap anyway and see how it works out.  Plus, they came all nicely wrapped up, I just couldn't resist.

I can be a little weird sometimes... #nojudging. If you're interested you can get these at Spencers.  *Rated pg 18.  

It was hard to capture this tumblr but it says 'Time to get shitty'.  I thought it was funny, and it's almost St Patrick's day so it might become versatile as well.  (;

You can never have too many shot cups to be honest.

The eye area is the most sensitive of your skin which means that it can cause and you will notice fine lines and wrinkles at a young age unfortunately.  It is so important to take care especially of that part of your skin.  I am on a search for the best and most versatile eye product out there.  This is no messing around issue for me.  When I learn something new I get really anal about my face and want to preserve my youth as long as I possibly can.  I haven't tried any Fresh products either so this will be my first and hopefully not my last!

Ever since Urban Decay came out with Perversion I had wanted it but only got a chance to get my hands on it today.  And I snagged that one up real quick. 

Kat Von D is extremely popular in the beauty world and for some strange reason I have yet to try any of her products?? Not sure why, but I bought two of them today and am beyond ready to give them a try!  I hardly ever use eyeliner but when I do I'm very particular on it and need a certain type of eyeliner so I can get complete accuracy in my line.  This is why Lock-It Tattoo liquid eyeliner may very well be the perfect eyeliner for me.

Might have went a little tiny bit over my budget at Sephora but I don't regret these at all.

 

Originally I had planned on more Mac this trip, unfortunately we went to Sephora first and apparently that is where most of my money had gone into.  Ah well, there's always next time! 

It's really unfortunate that I couldn't get my hands on the Miley Cyrus lipstick, however I did grab the lipglass while I can and will be back for the lipstick.  I will get it if it is the death of me!  Number one Miley Cyrus fan right here! Once I do get both of them I will do a review on them together, not one by one.

I am a lipstick whore, especially when it comes to Mac but because I don't live near a Mac outlet nor order online I still consider my collection to be pretty small.  Once I get it built up to where I am satisfied I'll do a thorough post on my Mac lippies.

I was going to do an unboxing and review on this but since Valentine's day is already past-better late than never, right? here it is: 

Mini Unboxing Post:

Toucan Love. How cute is the wrapping paper?

Thank you Amy's team!

Popcorn!

And finally, the products! I had too much fun with that. We have Cupid's Love, a fruity soap filled with figs and passionfruit juice.  This has got a firm gel-like texture and smells fruity with a hint of a spice.  Then we have Prince Charming, a sweet pomegranate and vanilla shower gel.

Initially I was going into Lush to pick up a few of their mud masks.  Disappointed that they didn't actually have any fresh ones in, I instead opted to get a bunch of bath bombs and bubble bars. 

The color on the picture is actually pale compared to how pink it is in person.  This is a creamy candy bubble bar.  This one smells just like bubble gum, I could probably just sit there and smell it all day and not get tired of it. 

I also got the Rose Jam Bubbleroon bubble bar.  I was immediately attracted to this because it looked like an ice cream sandwich.  Also it smelled really sweet like candy. yummy! Also it can be broken in half and used twice if you wanted.

I picked up a Blackberry bath bomb as well. Again, the camera pigmentation isn't doing justice as to the actual color.  What attracted me to this was because of the color and it smelled pretty good too.  Exciting to see how this is going to turn out! 

These flowers on top pretty much sold it for me.  This is the Pink Bath Bomb.  This bath bomb has a floral smell to me.  I'm not sure why, but I just want to lick it.  Yeah, that's probably a little bit weird. uhmm.. alrighty then, digressing.

My Mint Julips lip scrub is nearly finished and after thoroughly enjoying every last piece of sugar, I decided to pick up another Lip Scrub, this time in Bubblegum.  I have a feeling I will enjoy this one just the same as well and am looking forward to dipping into it as soon as my Mint Julips one is finished! 

The associate who was taking care of me was so generous enough to give me three samples!  WOW!  I will also be enjoying these as well! 

If you made it to the end of this post, congratulations because I'm not entirely sure if I even made it here myself. Do I even have to say that there will more than likely be reviews on most if not all of these in the next little while? Didn't think so haha. I certainly went all out with this little shopping trip and am good to go for the next little while that's for sure.
