In the Mail: Etsy, May 2012 Costco Brandsampler, Romwe tights & samples

My awesome friend got the Kutsuwa DIY clay charm set for me as a birthday gift. She was going to order from another website but they never restocked it. Fortunately, we found it on Etsy and she ordered it from the seller melovewholesale (lol). This store usually has only one kit in stock but they restock quickly. The specific kit that I have here is out of stock at the moment.

I got another packet of Downy Unstoppables In-wash Scent Booster in Fresh. This stuff actually works! It made my laundry smell really good and you only need a little bit (1/5 of the pack) to make the whole load smell great! I think I might actually purchase it ^^ I love it when my clothes smell nice keke. Walmart had Kotex sample kits so I decided to give it a try. One thing for sure, the colourful packaging will lighten your mood during those crummy days xD

 I won a small Valentine's Day giveaway on Nivea Canada's facebook page and received this super adorable tin of Nivea cream!

In the Mail: Now or Never

So I realized that although I edited the pictures of the goods I got in the mail, I totally forgot to make a post about them xD I think I have had some of the stuff either from 2010 or the very beginning of 2011...Yes, I have a great memory (to a certain extent).

A great site for Canadians samples is available. The author of this blog is none other than Justine from Productrater. Please check out her beauty blog or sample site! She updates daily and I find that she is speedier than any other site ;) Above: free Hello Kitty nail stamping plate (BornPretty, if it becomes available again, I'll be sure to update), Clairol Nice 'n Easy Foam hair dye, Chunks Ahoy! Thinsations, P&G Brand sampler (Canada & U.S.), Maybelline Fit Me foundation, Acts of Kindness (free chocolate bar), and another nail plate. The reason is because I didn't receive my first plate after 2 months. Thinking that it got lost in the mail, I contacted the person in charge (which is Jessica btw) and she was super nice and helpful and they mailed me another one. I believe their company is situated in Singapore. Their website is easy to navigate through and they have a variety of items for sale. The prices are reasonable too! I was really impressed with their kindness because I didn't expect them to mail me another one ^^

Closer look of the Fit Me sample

The idea of this sample is great! They have all the shades so anyone can find their perfect match (hopefully). They also instructions/info about the line and provided coupons.

Look at the shipping fee O_o

 I won a giveaway from the wonderful Suzie! I was really interested in trying the MAC Volcanic Ash Thermal Mask. She was super sweet and generous!

I love the cute letter and stickers! I can always put post-it notes to good use. Thank you so much, hunny!

Crystal Light samples. Yum! Except I really despise the aftertaste of aspartame. This is a nice way to try new flavours.

I have one more package to post about but I have to relocate my pictures...If anyone is situated in Canada and is interested in these types of samples, be sure to follow Justine's site!

In the Mail: Suzie Wuzie

 Isn't her name cute? I think so. I recently received a package from her and somehow one lipstick multiplied into all sorts of things O_o  Let's take a look. She was supposed to only send me this:

Korres Mango Butter Lipstick SPF 10 in Natural Pink 13

 And to my surprise, I got these lovelies accompanying my first ever Korres product:

Thank you so much Suzie! I was having a bad day and this totally cheered me up as well as your undying generosity ^^ The lipstick works out to be a bright MLBB shade (loves!) and the yummy perfume smells like fresh lychee! 

In the Mail: Pink and Sunshine

*breathes...*
So life has been so hectic these days. Like c'mon, I barely get the time to think. Even when I fall asleep, I dream so much that in the morning, I'm still exhuasted. Haha.


I've been meaning to show you guys what came in the mail throughout August to November...see how backlogged I am?! SOme of these are samples while the others are giveaway winnings. It might seem like that I'm one lucky girl but that's not really the case. oh well ><

In the Mail: Blue

This is what I recently received in the mail =] They're my giveaway and contest winnings weee! The first one is from Alana (iheartmakeup85) and her 100 sub contest. I did a video tutorial and she was so nice that she gave all the participants some goodies!

She gave me not only one but two cute makeup products! The first one is a Pigment Powder Dust from Annabelle in Chiffon. Now if I'm not mistaken, this is the old version of the loose eyeshadow (check out the new one here) and this colour is discontinued unfortunately. It's a beautiful beige gold. Perfect for highlighting!

This is Lancome's Blush Subtil Delicate Oil-Free Powder Blush in Cedar Rose (top) and Aplum (bottom). Can't wait to use this! It's so natural looking and the colours seem like they would work for my medium skintone ^.^

Blue from Watercoloursky held a 500+ followers giveaway and I was lucky enough to be the bonus winner ^^ She had questions asking for suggestions and I guess my blabbing helped her a lot :D Believe it or not, her blog was the actually the first one I've ever read. Pretty much the first time I read her blog, I instantly knew I was in love with this hobby. So here I am! Thanks for being the inspiration, Blue (L)

Haha this is what she said, "however, the most helpful/insightful comments or suggestions may receive a bonus prize ;)" I had to bold the "a" part because this package is sooo generous and sweet of her. She showered me with so many things! Ahh thank you so much Blue! And she wrapped it with bubble wrap. Did i mention how fun bubble wrap is? It's rather addictive too... The first thing that caught my eye was the Sally Girl nail polish in Mango Tango. It's so tres cute and the colour looks yummy. The bottle is super teeny too which contributes to the cute factor. aha I'm really excited to try out all these goodies!

A Covergirl lipstick in 550 Powerpink. It is a nice vibrant pink with beautiful blue/aqua flecks.

ooooh so pretty!

Once again, thank you so much! ^^
