Hey guys! Since I enjoyed doing my first empties post so much, I decided to keep saving my empty containers and make another post once I've gotten enough to make it a little cluttered!
Initially, I had quite a few more empty conditioners and shampoos but seem to have misplaced them.  They'll come in the next post though.

I go through conditioner like it's nobody's business.  I will go through 3 bottles of conditioner before my first bottle of shampoo typically.

• Down Under Argan Oil Therapy Conditioner
• Herbal Essences Hello Hydration Moisturizing Conditioner

If you're looking for a sweet smelling conditioner, the Argan oil is where it's at.  This left my hair feeling soft with a touch of shine.
I used the Herbal Essences conditioner when I realized I had ran out of all of my big bottles and had no other option.  I used a few full bottles of this years ago, it's a good conditioner that smells of coconut.

• L'oreal Hair Expertise Total Repair

I used this along with my other lotions and creams in my hair after every shower, religiously.  It smells fresh and fruity.  This does a great job at preventing split ends I found.

• Welcos Merit Miracle Argan Treatment Oil Perfume

I used about 4 squirts of this after every shower.  I liked this so much so that I ordered more but a different scent.

 Now onto the makeup products.

• Yves Rocher Felt Tip Eyeliner 12H

I rarely use eyeliner but when I do, I will only use a felt tip liner.  This particular one was great, it was dark as dark and went on very smooth like all felt tip liners I've used before.  I'm only tossing this because I've had it for so long that it's expired by now.

• Too Faced Better Than Sex

Even though this is just a sample sized mascara it's my favorite mascara ever. I bought the full size and am able to now throw the sample out!

• Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion

My favorite primer.  After using this my mascara stays on and vibrant even into the following morning if I had forgotten to remove my makeup before sleep.

• Welcos Merit Killing Me Zombie CC Cream SPF30 PA++

I'm so happy that I ordered the full size before Roseroseshop took it off of their website!  If you're looking for a light foundation with decent coverage that will morph into your skintone, look no further!

• A'Pieu Smart Speeder Stick Foundation SPF30

I'm so sad that I haven't ordered this again before it ran out :( .  Fortunately I am pretty sure that I can find a foundation stick local to hold me over until I order more in!  This is a great foundation stick that will help significantly get rid of any blemishes on your face prior to your foundation application.  This is great to blend in because it goes on so creamy.

I wish I had found the rest of my empties to share but this much will have to suffice for now!

The Roller Lash mascara hasn't been out for 2 weeks yet and I am so lucky to be able to get my hands on it as the closest place I can get my hands on this is about a half hour drive away which is so inconveniently out of my way haha.  I really like how they've made the tube have the resemblance of hair rollers, it's cute and unique.

The camera wouldn't really focus properly on the wand but it was a plastic wand with a little bit of a curve in which I would have expected it to be more curved to serve its purpose.  With that being said, I do prefer plastic wands because I find the other type gets really clumpy and you have less precision with them.

Before picture! 

aaand after picture.  I really like how dark the mascara was and how it didn't make my lashes clump together which is really nice!  This mascara did actually give quite a bit of curl and if I were to have used my Urban Decay Supercurl Curling Mascara I'm sure it would have done an exceptional job at curling my lashes for me!

I don't actually use any type of lash curler so I do depend on my mascara to do it for me and every mascara I use seem to do a great job at just that.  Would I say that this is a golden product? Probably not, I can find other mascaras that do the same thing such as Too Faced Better Than Sex but I don't regret this purchase as I love trying out new mascaras to see if they can beat the ones I am using at the time.  I would probably repurchase but not anytime soon as I need to finish this one first! 

So today I decided I will have a pamper day between all the hectic and rush of the Christmas season.

The candle of choice is called Gourmet Espresso by Bath and Body works.  Unlit it has quite a strong scent of coffee and chocolate which is actually what drew me to purchase this candle.  It is really sweet so perfect for an afternoon of baking Christmas goodies with friends and family!

I haven't found time to use face masks as much as I used to so my skin was feeling extra dry because  the crisp air of winter will do that to your skin!  Which is why I purchased the NextBeau 10 pack moisture face mask and it serves the purpose extremely well as I had predicted.  The end result had made my face feeling 100% more moisturized and added the vibrancy to my face that was missing! 100% satisfied with this product. 

After my shower, again with my always and forever go-to product, Miracle Argan Oil by Welcos Merit which can be purchased here.  It's perfect in every way! 

The mascara I decided to go with is Too Faced Better Than Sex.  Can we just say that the packaging is enough to make anyone buy this alone??

For the way it applies I really like how dark the mascara is and the length it gives my lashes.   I also enjoy how easy it is to apply as well. A little is a lot with mascara and that is so true.  This mascara really gives my eyes a pop and makes them stand out moreso than others would.   I give this my stamp of approval! 

Next for my bronzer I used the Too Faced Bronzer in the light leopard print.   This bronzer doesn't really do a whole lot to my face, I just kind of like the way it looks in the packaging. It sits on my face pretty subtly too, which is just what I need. Usually I will skip the bronzer because I'm scared to go too harsh on it and look like an oompa loompa.

For my lippy I wanted to have a change up in my routine and thought a red color might look okay despite trying reds on in the past and not liking the look it gave me.  However in this Bite Holiday package I used Pomegranate which is the truest red in this set anyway and let me tell you I really like the look it gives me!  I'm going to go ahead and say that this is what I like the most about my look today.  

And let's not forget what we all do best in December, I am wrapping presents for yes, you guess it, Raelene's gift! But shh, I can't post them on here because it's a gift sillys. 

First off I would like to say that I am forever grateful for everything that was given to me for my birthday that has just recently passed.  Many thanks to everybody who didn't have to but did anyway not only think of me but buy me something for my birthday! 
Now, onto the goodies shall we?

After browsing the Sephora website multiple times, I have always stopped and looked at Bite cosmetics and have wanted some of their products.  While in there at cash there was a festive looking mini lip Bite pocket.  Now do I not only have one lip pencil but four to try out! yay so excite!!!!
Next we have Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara.  This wasn't exactly a Birthday present but a redeemable card I had from a sample mascara product I had purchased a long time ago.  I decided to choose this one as I thought it was the best out of what there was to choose from.
And of course we have the Sephora birthday present from well, you guessed it, Sephora! Makeup Forever Smokey Extravagant mini mascara and a Makeup Forever mini lipstick!  Thank you Sephora! 

We have a few mini candles from Bath and Body Works.  I find their candles to be true to the scent they are unlit-that's a good thing!
I also got a Mac Limited Edition lipstick, I'm obsessed with mac lipsticks so if anyone can't figure out what to get me this is probably a good guess. The shade is in Rebel.  Some of you may be wondering why I spent extra money for the limited edition on a color that's in the permanent line.  Well one because I didn't get in to a Mac outlet right when this line came out, #ruralproblems. Secondly, we all pay an extra $2 for 3D glasses when going to the movies and only use them for 3 hours, why can't I spend an extra 4$ for a cool lip tube!!??
I also got just a couple spoonfuls of Davids Tea in the flavor Organic Japanese Sencha.   I like to drink green tea because it boosts your metabolism and allows your system to keep on the right track at all times.  Also how could I resist getting anything Japanese.

Next we have an online order of Melt cosmetics.  The first time I seen this brand was on Instagram, and yes, I instantly fell in love with it!  I'm not going to tell you the shades that were purchased, you're just going to have to wait until a review comes up! (#reviewiscomingshortly).
Also I am waiting on another online order that has yet to be received.  I just couldn't wait any longer!  I may edit this post but there will be a review on it that's for sure!  I don't want to give any spoilers but the brand starts with an S and ends with a leek.  That's pretty darn exciting if I do say so myself!

oh perfect! how could I get all of this makeup without any makeup case?  These bags are great for travel if you want to just throw a few pieces in for on the go.

 

 Next I got this beautiful Swarovski heart necklace.  The shines on these crystals could blind somebody I swear!

Last but not least, I received this Tiffany necklace.  Now the chain on this piece is so delicate I feel as though one tiny tug and it will break, which is actually probably the case and I wouldn't suggest trying it haha. I actually cannot express how much this necklace means to me, it is more than just a Tiffany necklace.  And that is what these types of things are supposed to be in my opinion.   Unless you're rich as frig and get these kinds of things on a regular basis! than poo on you.

Again, like I stated before starting this post, I am feeling extremely blessed, loved, and supported by everybody surrounding me in my life at this current time.  I couldn't wish for any more!  Thank you for all of the love you guys have given me! Everything here is appreciated and will be used to its fullest! And yes, I had an excellent 22nd birthday!

What caught my eye at the store was the packaging because we all know that I love anything cute and Korean-like. As well as Barbara Palvin as the model.  SOLD.

As I opened the tube up I noticed that the wand has a flex point. Never worked with this type of wand before, we will just see how it turns out! Also one thing that I always make sure to take note of is the smell because sometimes it can just be atrocious. In this case it wasn't anything too overpowering, smelled like any normal mascara.

Lets get on to how this actually applies.  I took a picture of my bare eyelashes so we can see its full effect.

yes I know I gotta get my eyebrows done.

I am quite picky on what mascara I use and I gotta say, this one is pretty good.  I like the fact that it is a really dark black and also that it doesn't clump. However my left eyelash looks to be slightly more clumpier than my right one but I find that to be standard with any mascara I use, probably the way I apply it.  As far as the bend in the wand goes, I didn't even use it.  Not really sure what the purpose of it is for.  It turned out to be neither a pro nor a con, just accessory.  All-in-all I do enjoy this mascara and would recommend it to people as well.   

If you have any questions feel free to ask, we don't bite! Promise.
