This tube of Ren Instant Firming Beauty Shot was from the Sephora Favorites Skin Wonderland set I received from an angel :D (thanks A.!)

Clarins Gentle Foaming Cleanser With Cottonseed
After the gigantic tube of Rosette Horse Oil Traditional Cleansing Paste that took hubby and I more than half a year to use up, we were ready for some change. And by change we mean no more giant tubes of Japanese foaming cleanser that's harsh and foam like mad. So we opted for this 30mL/0.7oz. tube of Clarins Gentle Foaming Cleanser With Cottonseed instead.

Lunasol Stain Color Lips Part II
So...guess what happened. I bought more of the Lunasol Stain Color Lips =.= Are you surprised? Of 2015 summer limited edition releases, I got EX02 Fresh Coral and EX03 Energy Red. I also picked up EX05 Vivid Red, a limited edition from 2015 fall collection.

Addiction 2016 Fall Limited Edition Swatches
Another part of my visit to Ginza Mitsukoshi was to spy on Addiction's 2016 Fall collection Modern Nostalgia.
There are six new colors for The Eyeshadow, all are limited editions and I swatched them all.

Of the five new colors for Lipstick Pure, only three are limited edition, and of those three I only swatched the one I was most curious about. Can you guess which? ^.^

Aritaum Shine Fix Eyes
I saw these Aritaum Shine Fix Eyes on Citrine's blog and my first thought was, Korean super sparkly version of L'Oreal Infallible Eyeshadows? Yes, please!
There are many colors, and of course many have been discontinued including several of the colors I wanted. But whatever, I'm late to the game to I'll take what I can get. Thankfully, Korea Department Store had some left.

Innisfree Glow Tint Stick
When I first saw these Innisfree Glow Tint Stick, I thought, oooh sheer, translucent, and glossy lippies, I'm in! So I went and grabbed them off of Korea Department Store.
There are 10 colors available, and just looking at the stock photos, I picked 02 Tangerine Sunlight, 03 Coral Lake, 05 Pink Cheek, 06 Coral Sunset, 07 Pink Cloud, 08 Red Sunset, and 09 Evening Sunset, skipping over 01 Coral Spring, 04 Spring Rose, and 10 Rosy Sunset.

Three Flash Performance Eyeliner Pencil Part II
So I've just been informed that Three is discontinuing all 8 of these Flash Performance Eyeliner Pencils, which means I've got to push this review for 02 Eye Believe out the door and then hurrying on to grab my backups before they're gone forever (they'll be pulled from the counters after August 9). Why?!? I just can't even... O.o

Lunasol Stain Color Lips
This Lunasol Stain Color Lips in 07 Fresh Orange was an impulse buy when I was picking up my order of the Clear Colorful Eyes. Actually, it wasn't even impulse buy, more like desperate buy, because I was desperate for a Lunasol lippie, having tried only one so far, the Full Glamour Lips in 02 Cherry Red.
