Clinique, Victoria's Secret, Body Central Mini Haul

Hello!

So today I decided to go to the mall since it was such a rainy and miserable day, and I knew that doing a little shopping would help to cheer up my spirit.

Here's what I bought:

 

Body Central

YMI Plaid Shorts (White/Grey)
$16.90

Victoria's Secret
VS Pro Smooth FX Lip Scrub & Balm
$16.00

 I have wanted this scrub for weeks! I was so sad to see that it was not available to purchase online, but when I saw it in the store today I immediately scooped it up!

 Since Winter was just here, my lips have been very chapped and dry all the time, and I was only concerned with packing on more lip moisturizers. However, I started to notice that even after moisturizing there was still a lot of dead skin on my lips (gross!), so I began looking into exfoliating them. I have been using "Do It Yourself" techniques, such as brushing petroleum jelly on your lips with a toothbrush, which works fine too, but I decided to get a more sophisticated way as well.









Beach Sexy Tinted Body Lotion
$12.00

I have the self-tanning products from the Beach Sexy line as well, which work AMAZING in my opinion, so I decided to give this a try. I was looking for the after sun lotion they used to carry, but I believe this product has replaced it.

This entire line smells so phenomenal!

  

Rockin' Body Luminous Perfecting Cream
$12.00

I have noticed this product sitting on the shelf every time I have been to VS lately so I decided to pick it up. I was expecting it to be like a firming lotion, but it looks almost like a tinted moisturizer to me. It blends in easily and has some shimmer to it. It smells nice, but not like the Beach Sexy products. I will have to do some more testing of this product until I can give a good review.

 
 

Clinique

  

Ok, so technically the two moisturizers, the lip duo, and the palette are from a couple weeks ago when I got the free gift with purchase, but I wanted to include them anyways.

Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion
Moisture Surge
Different Lipstick/Long Last Glosswear SPF 15

• Lipstick: #33 Raspberry Glace
• Gloss: #13 Fireberry

Color Surge Eye Shadow Trio

• (2) Single Shades from Strawberry Fudge Duo
• Slate

Soft-Pressed Powder Blusher

• New Clover

Here is a swatch of the lip duo, with the lipstick (Raspberry Glace) on the left, and the gloss (Fireberry) on the right.

 

 I have a bunch of the Fireberry glosses, since they have included them in their free gift quite often lately. I use them occassionally, and I do enjoy the color as far as darker shades go. It is long lasting and very pretty as well. I usually use it for winter.


 Also, I personally prefer the Moisture Surge over the Dramatically Different moisturizing lotion, which is strange because I have been using the Dramatically Different for years and loving it. The Moisture Surge goes on more like a gel, and it dries quickly and smoothly. I really do like it, and I wish it had some SPF coverage.


Quickliner for Eyes Intense

• 01- Intense Black
• 07- Intense Ivy

$15.00 Each

Here is a swatch of the two eyeliners, with Intense Black on the top, and Intense Ivy on the bottom.

Since I have green eyes, I like to get green eyeliners, and this one was so beautiful. It has a lot of shimmer in it, and its very deep and rich. I also really love the black because I like my eyeliners to be very dark.

I have swatched this eyeliner a few times now, and worn it once and I am here to say that it is AMAZING. I can rub the swatches to pieces, and they DO NOT BUDGE. I even washed it with water and it was still there, without any fading done. It it incredible. It comes off easily with my makeup remover, but unless I want it to come off, it's there to stay.

Thats all for the mall trip today!

Thanks for reading <3
