Book: 1001 Ways to Stay Young Naturally

http://www.amazon.com/1001-Ways-Stay-Young-Naturally/dp/0756625718

I found this book at a bookstore on campus. It was on sale, so I decided to buy with a binder. I went to the bookstore to buy a binder for my organic chemistry class. Pictures in this book look a kind of old, but its content is really worth reading. I'll give it a try :)

Haul: Natural Food Store

I went to a grocery store and natural food store yesterday. and I got some good stuff :) I had some coupons, so I spent less than I thought. I'm really satisfied with that. Since I care about my skin a lot, and I'm actually sick now, I decided to buy some supplements; Women's Multi, Acidphilus, and Vitamin C drink. I feel I intake less protein, so I decided to try soytein. They are vegan or vegetarian formula. I also bought Cool Soup, which is a vegetable soup, and I really loved it. It is really light flavor, but since I'm sick, I haven't been able to eat food that has strong taste. I think I want to buy them more. I'm so so happy they were all on sale, and I got descounted from their discounted tags :"]

Doin' it

I love hiphop. I always listen to them while doing something else.

Today's Haul at WalMart

I love WalMart. They have really cheap stuff, so I can buy necessity things for a good deal.

In My Shower Room: Review

These are things that I'm currently using. Organix shampoo and conditioner are things that I've been wanting to use for a long time. They were on sale so I bought them. They were 2 for $6.99. But I don't think I'll buy these again because my hair gets tangling easily after I use these. It's not so good. They smells good but I don't think coconut milk is a smell for someone's hair. The smell should be for room or something. The body wash is good. My ideal skin type is soft and smooth. It gives me smoothness. But still my body skin gets dry. I need to find a super moisturizer for body.

Today's Haul

-Victoria's Secret Ooh la la Rich Body Butter $9.00

This Week's Haul

I bought many things this week. I'm excited to try them out :)

A Thing I Never Buy Again: Blackhead Cleaning Scrub

http://www.cleanandclear.com/productDetail.do?productid=38&productpos=2190

-Clean and Clear Blackhead Cleaning Scrub
This is creamy type of scrub. The beads tend to remain on my skin, sometimes on my hair, or neck, EVERYWHERE! I try to rinse well, but it never worked. The creamy base also tends to remain on my skin. It's so hard to rinse off! And I don't see any difference on my blackheads after I purchased this scrub. I never buy this again.

Trials: Voige

Here is another review for today. It's called "Voige". They were good. I liked them. But somehow They didn't make me buy again. They weren't that attractive for me. Maybe because I don't like gel type of cosmetics. The gel type of moisturizer always give me breakouts. I guess polymer isn't good for my skin.

Trials: SNOVE

These samples contain high quality of Russian placenta. It's supposed to hydrate your skin verty well. I used Snove's lotion, serum, and milk, then it gave me enough hydration without being oily. I might want to order their trials again. They are bit pricey but the trials are a good deal.

A Thing I Never Buy Again: Fresh Foaming Cleanser

I love Neutrogena, and nothing was wrong with using this cleanser. But it doesn't mean I want to keep using this again. It wasn't bad, but it also wasn't good. So I won't buy this again.

Domaine Michelle Review

Domaine Michelle
Brut
I tried this Domaine Michelle Brut. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't my favorite taste. I thought it had a taste that I didn't need. It's not smooth.

Haul; Cleanser, top coat, and body lotion

Those three are my favorite goods. I feel so fresh when I use Clean&Clear cleanser. I bought quick dry top coat, and it drys out really quickly. Actually I repeat using Alba emollient body lotion. It provides my skin softer. So good <3

Estancia Pinot Grigio

Estancia -Pinot Grigio-
This white wine is so good.

Here is my random thought. I wanted this blog to be just for a cosmetics hauls but I want to talk more about my addictions. Ummm....

A thing I never buy again: Body Lotion

It smells really good, but it doesn't give me enough hydration. So I won't buy this one again.

Korean facial masks

I went to a Korean food market, then I bought a couple of facial masks. One of them was 高麗人参, and it smelled really herbal. I like it because I feel it is really effective from its medicine-like smell. I wish I had a pic of it.

Shopping

I went shopping today <3　I love shopping!

Kabuki Brush & eyelash curler

I got a gift <3
-Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler
The curve of this eyelash curler fits mine very well!
-Too Faced Kabuki Brush
I have a problem with washing this brush...

The Body Shop: Moisture White Toning Essence

I bought this essence this morning for $6 at The Body Shop. I needed to buy a toner so I was lucky enough to get this. It has vitamin C in it for all skin types. What I like about The Body Shop is they don't do animal testing. It's so awesome. I hope it works for me. It says eye area should be avoided.

My favorite cosmetics

Those are my favorite mascara and skin protector :)

Review: China Glaze Orange Cuticle Oil & Essie Apricot Cuticle Oil

I finished using China Glaze Orange Cuticle Oil today. I won't buy this item again because it wasn't enough for my nails to get hydrated even thought it smells good. That's why I bought Avoplex Replenishing Oil. I used to use Essie Cuticle Oil, but I didn't like the apricot smell. I'll never buy the Essie one, either.

Avoplex Cuticle Oil and Olay Eye Treatment

I got these today; Avoplex cuticle replenishing oil, and Definity illuminating eye treatment. I'll start using these tonight. I'm excited :) The cuticle replenishing oil was $7.45, and the illuminating eye treatment was $9.99. They were pretty good prices. I'm happy about that. I've just tried to smell the cuticle oil and it smells really good! Awesome ;)

Revies: hand lotions and creams

I like their smells, but unfortunately they don't give me enough hydration to my hands, although I like what they do as anti-bacterial hand lotion. Usually anti-bacterial gel will dry out my skin.



What I recommend as a hand lotion is Johnson's soft lotion. It will soften my skin and my hands will be smooth. The right one is a Victoria's Secret hand cream. I haven't tried it yet, but it smells really good. It was 40% off yesterday. I'm quite happy about that. I was going to buy a body lotion, but I don't want my body to smell spicee apple though I like the smell. I thought my hands to be smell it was enough.

LipGloss I Love <3

Here is a miniature Clinique moisturizing Gloss: Apricot. This hydrates my lips well. It is verry sheer. and my lips'll look pretty, and thick. The texture is not nasty or sticky. Love it :)

Things I never buy again

These are things I never buy again; Victoria's secret Very Sexy mascara, and Maybelline Mineral Power. Speaking of the mascara, it comes off easily. It'll always give me dark circles. The package is really cute though. As for the mineral power, my skin gets itchy, and if I touch my cheek, the pigment sticks to my fingers and everything. I didn't like the brush, either.

Lucido Romantical Curl Water

I also finished using this romantical curl water. The name is pretty :)
It's really popular in Japan. But I think there is better one somewhere.
It wasn't bad though.

Finished Using Mask jelly and Salicylic Face Milk

I finished using these. They weren't bad, but I don't feel like buying them again especially Touki Mask Jelly. Many people say the jelly works well your pours, but I don't think it has done anything for me. Salicylic Face Milk was good. It contains salicylic acid and oil-free. It was light enough for summer. I think I'll get one next spring. It's not good for winter.

-Soukamokka Touki Mask Jelly
-DHC Salicylic Face Milk

Tea Haul; Dandldelion and Locorice

Speaking of tea leaves, I have Iced Wine Tea from Canada, Hougi tea, Maccha Powder Tea, Hatomugi tea (Coix Seeds), and Oolong Tea. I needed to have tea leaves for my health to heal PMS. I already tried both of the tastes, and I really liked them. I hope to feel better :)

Wish List: oil-free eye make-up remover

I'm interested in using this. Does this work well?

Favorite Scent

Look at those! How cute they are~
I got a hand cream for free using a coupon at Bath & Body Works again,and brown sugar and fig room spray. A friend of mine took me to Target and I bought a nail polish, which was Revlon Really Rose. I think I want to get Touch of Mauve next time, because the color was good on me when I tried it.

Bath and Body Works holiday season haul

This Holiday Season version, Twisted Peppermint smells really good. This is one of my favorite scent. This hand soap was $3. I love to use this creamy hand soap because I care about dryness on my hand. I need to exfoliate my knees elbows, and heals, so I got a body scrub for free using a coupon. Brown Sugar and Fig hand lotion is also one of my favorite lotion. It was also $3. I wouldn't buy these if they were retail price.
↓ I have found a good web-site to buy holiday collection.

Victoria's Secret So Sexy Haul

-So Sexy conditioner for dry hair
-Brilliant Hair Mist
-Instant Detangler

I went to Victoria's Secret this Saturday, and I bought those so sexy hair products. It was 3 for $24. So far I've used the detangler, and really love it. It gives my hair really soft and smooth. Since it gets cold, my hair tends to have static electricity,which means that my hair is damaged or dry. But it's gone! I love it :) Also it smells really good.

-Love Spell Mini Bag

I also bought this a couple weeks ago. I needed a case for my pens. I'm using this as a pen case.

I had never used Love Spell lotions, but now I have cute tiny those three. I love those travel size.

What's more, I got a hair essence and a scrub for blackhead. I've been using this Elseve essence since high school. I've just used this scrub once, and I realized that blackhead around my nose went smaller already. But I'll see.

Here is my wish list below↓

-Hand and Body Cream Gift Box

I'll definitely buy this weekend when I'm done with my homework for this week because I have 3 paper to be done. I can't wait!

Trial Body Cream: Dove Pro-Age

I got a mini bottle of Dove proage body cream from free-cycle.
It sounds pretty odd that I like this. But it gives my skin really really smooth and soft.
It doesn't contain mineral oil. Perfect.

Hand Cream -Burt's Bees hand repair cream-

I carried this travel hand cream. It was in my cosmetic bag. This hand cream did not give me enough moistness to my hands. I won't buy this any more. It smells actually good, I mean, natural. I kind of like that. Anyway, Nivea soft has taken over a spot in my cosmetic bag. My hands get dried easily. I have to have something that really moisture my hands.

Today's Haul

I went to a grocery shopping today, and I bought some stuff with foods; a lotion for face, a body lotion, a moisturizing creme, and a moisturizing lip balm.

-Biore Triple Action Astringernt -$5.69
-Johnsons Baby Lotion ----------$2.69
-Carmex Moisturizing Lip Balm -$1.00
-Nivea Soft Moisturizing Creme -$0.99

http://everything2.com/e2node/Carmex
According to some articles like above, Carmex lip balm has a bad reputation. I should've known that. But I wanted to try them. I want lip balms to contain menthol because I like to feel the soothing. I was using Burt's Bees lip balm, but my lips got irritated when I used this lip balm. I had to buy something new for my lips to heal them.

I bought Nivea Soft Trial Size because I need something for my hands to carry with me in my cosmetic case. I hope it'll help. I haven't used it yet.

I bought Johnson's Baby Lotion because I need something that has light scent. I have a body and hand lotion but it smells chocolate. It's ew for summer.

And I like Biore's package a lot. I bought this because I need a lotion for my decollete and neck areas. I didn't like Theyer's lotion. Actually I want to use Kiehl's Herb Lotion for my breakouts, but you know, it's expensive a bit. Biore Astringent is just an alternative lotion.

Everything I bought today was cheap enough. I'm happy about it :D

Hand Gels -Bath&BodyWorks-

I went to Bath&BodyWorks. Then I found theses cute tiny hand gels. They're good for carrying. I put one into my cosmetic bag that I always carry with me <33 Pretty. I like these two scents, but not others.

My Skin Care Rouline -Moisturizers-

-Annemarie Borlind Purifying Care
-DHC Salicylic Face Milk

I use these in case by case. If I feel dryness, I use Annemarie Borlind Purifying Care. In other case, DHC Salicylic Face Milk can be used. Both were a little bit expensive for me. I bought the Annemarie Cream for $22, and the DHC milk for $19. When my skin condition is not good, the Annemarie Cream tends to stay white and a bit solid. When it is fairly good, the cream can be absorbed well into my skin. I like both goods. But if I compare, I like the DHC Milk better than the Cream becasuse I like its liquid-like texture.
