Suqqu Blend Color Eyeshadow Part V

I never thought I'd see another Suqqu Blend Color Eyeshadow. Last year though, somehow I got super lucky and stumbled upon fantastic deals for palette 19 淡藤透 (Awafujisukashi) on Rakuten JP and EX-29 光絹織 (Koukiori) on e(vil)bay.

I didn't really care for #19 but it was 1,000yen below retail and I had points to deduct further and couldn't resist. And when I swatched EX-29 in person, I loved the split pan but hated that the rest were pretty much non-color. But again it was listed on Ebay at less than Japanese retail and brand new so I couldn't pass up. Now if only I were just as lucky and find that Bright Up Lipstick EX-02 :P

Peter Thomas Roth Mega-Rich Body Wash

Almost through with this 30mL/1fl. oz. bottle of Peter Thomas Roth Mega-Rich Body Wash so here's a quick review for it. Hubby and I only use it while traveling, and we haven't traveled for a few years so this bottle is pretty old ^.^"

Master Soap Soap Gifts Part II

Last fall, having discovered those adorable Master Soaps were, in fact, great soaps, I did some major hauling to stock up for our own use and to have little things to send to our friends and family during the holidays.

Shown here is about half of the entire haul, and yes, it was a lot of soaps! ^.^"

Biotherm Lait de Douche Cleansing Shower Milk

I'm more than half way through this 75mL/2.53fl. oz. tube of Biotherm Lait de Douche Cleansing Shower Milk. The only reason it dodged the fate of the Lait de Gommage Gentle Exfoliating Milk is simple: no plastic beads.

Got a pair of 75mL/2.53fl. oz. deluxe travel sizes of this Biotherm Lait de Gommage Gentle Exfoliating Milk and Lait de Douche Cleansing Shower Milk (will review next) and promptly forgot about them for a few years ^.^"And then of course, hubby and I moved home and I "found" them again.

Warning: rant post ahead!

Andalou Naturals 1000 Roses Floral Toner

Can't believe I'm already half way through this 178mL/6fl. oz. spray bottle of Andalou Naturals 1000 Roses Floral Toner! I bought this last year when Andalou put this 1000 Roses line on 50% off promotion.

Origins Ginger Souffle Whipped Body Cream

Finished with this 90mL/3oz. of Origins Ginger Souffle Whipped Body Cream just as hubby and I moved into our new home at the end of June. This jar was from the Mini Souffle Sampler, which included this Ginger Souffle, Gloomaway, and the Smoothing Souffle that got me hooked on the texture to begin with.

Komenuka Bijin Medicated Beauty Whitenting Essence

I've been using a 40mL pump bottle of Komenuka Bijin Medicated Beauty Whitenting Essence as part of my daytime routine for the past few weeks.

Since my little one weaned himself off at the end of April, my hormones went nuts. I gained a bunch of weight and broke out like crazy. Thankfully, my skin has since calmed down a bit, but I still have some scarring which I've read that most whitening products will help with. So yeah, I'm actually using a whitening product right now ^.^

Origins Gloomaway Grapefruit Souffle

Sorry for going MIA for the rest of June there. I was moving home. Again. Hopefully, we'll stay put for a longer while than last time, because moving house with baby is just not fun +.+ for us, at least. The little one had lots of fun helping the packing and unpacking, as in he took out stuff that should stay in, and put in stuff that should stay out. Ha. 

After trying Origins Smoothing Souffle, I spotted this Mini Souffle Sampler on sale for 25% off on Nordstrom and didn't think twice. The sampler includes three 90mL/3oz. jars of the Ginger Souffle, this Gloomaway Grapefruit Souffle, and more of the Smoothing Souffle.
