Mail day!!!!

Tuesday, I came home from school and work to a wonderful package from Rescue Beauty Lounge! I didn't expect to receive anything from them so soon, just because I figured that they would be inundated with orders!

I limited myself to only 3 bottles, but am already planning my next order! ;)

Rescue Beauty Lounge

So I'm pretty sure you guys all heard about the Rescue Beauty Lounge 50% off event.

Luckily, I was able to get home from my exam on time to buy me some goodies!!!
I wasn't supposed to buy a lot..... but I just couldn't resist!! I'm a sucker for sales, even more for nail polishes on sale!! In addition, I knew international shipping is crazy, but I just heard that my aunt is going to the States next week, so I was able to get it shipped for $8.50 instead of $38.50!!

I spent so much time to decide on which ones I was going to get. I tried to limit myself to only 4 and at one point, had 8 in my cart!! In the end, I settled with 6 bottles haha... Anyways.. who knew spending money like that would make me that happy?!

Here's what i got:
Dead Calm
Lulu
Black Russian
Au Chocolat
Drifter and
Stormy

I can't wait to get them!!! I wanted to get Recycle too, but I have Orly Bloom Collection from TransDesign coming, and I didn't want to end up with 2 similar greens.. Hope I won't regret not getting it!

What did you guys get? Please share!

Nothing Better

So I needed a little pick-me-up, so I decided go to buy all 6 nail polishes from Sally Hansen's Salon Mode Collection (Canadian exclusive apparently). Yup. The cashier must've thought that I was Cah-Razy.

From left to right: Fashion Forward, Purple Heart, American Beauty, Valentino, Burnt Sienna and Project Runway

Pretty pretties! None of these are cremes, so we'll see how I feel about them on my nails.... The colors are really nice. I'm really looking forward to trying on Project Runway. There's some glitter in there that you can't really see from the picture but it looks cool. Fashion Forward, also, has some blue and red microglitter in there. Very interesting.


I also did a new mani for Thursday, Lippmann's Ruby Red Slippers. SOOO PRETTY! But I took it off because there were some shrinkage. Probably because of the top coat. I didn't like it, because it looked like tip wear. But I'm sure it'll be back on the nails soon! Pics will come!!

Iz loaded.....

Who is loaded, you ask? We'll me! Not only am I loaded with school assignments, but loaded with NAIL POLISHES!!!!

I didn't even think about writing a post today because of the mountain of homework I have to do, but when I came home to this package, I just had to share the good news!!!

As you may or may not know, Rescue Beauty Lounge recently teamed up with 3 beautiful bloggers (The Polish Addict, All Lacquered Up and Scrangie) to create 3 new amazing colors.

This is what I came home to, and more!

Here are the 3 blogger polishes:

From left to right: Scrangie, Orbis Non Sufficit and Mismas

and the more:

Frugalista and Bruised.

and because it deserves a close up, here's Scrangie!!

Pretty, huh??

Oh yeah this pretty much put me in a good mood, despite the fact that it disgusting outside and I have to do statistics homework. Ew.

I can't promise swatches soon, but I'll definitely be wearing these gorgeous colors the next few days.. or weeks, so I'll try to take pictures!

First Day of + Mega haul

I just had my first day of classes at McGill University today and even though I only had 2 classes, it wasn’t half bad. The teachers were funny and the other students seem cool! I say seem because I didn’t actually talk to many of them... My shyness is definitely something I have to get over someday if I want to succeed in marketing. Someday, I said.
I kinda felt weird and lonely, somehow. It doesn’t normally bother me, but today, I was ready to meet new people and super excited to start at McGill... I found myself sitting and looking at the teacher who was talking on the telephone and trying to figure out how the projector worked while people around me introduced themselves to each other. I mean, I wasn’t the only one not presenting myself to a future friend but I felt trapped (in my little lonely Asian bubble).
Anyways, back to school is never easy... so since I finished early today, I decided to stop by the mall and pass by Trade Secrets.. What for? Well, well, surprise, surprise, NAIL POLISH! To comfort myself (wink) I decided do a mega nail polish haul. Okay... it was more an impulse buy but I doubt I’ll regret it. The more (polishes added to my stash) the merrier! I think that’s how the saying goes, right?
Here’s what I got:


The complete Suede collection, one from the Designer Series and two from the Spain Collection


The complete Suede collection (from l-r) : Russian Navy, Suzi Skies in the Pyrenees, We'll Always have Paris, Lincoln Park After Dark, Ink and You Don't Know Jacques!
Here's a closer look:

Pamplona Purple, Can You Tapas This?, DS Mystery

Also, the previous day, I met up with my cousin before she left with her boyfriend for a 7 months-around-the-world-backpack-trip (I really gonna miss her) and had already bought 3 MAC polishes from the new collection.


Dance All Night, Beyond Jealous and Cool Reserve

Ouch! Wallet’s gonna hurt! I really need to find a job ASAP!
Swatches to come on Friday! :)
Have a fun week!
