Travel Series: Skincare Essentials for a Carryon Luggage

Hello everyone, I want to share a series of posts revolving around my recent travels to Disney World, mostly around what I packed with me. The first post will of course be all about my beauty essentials. Since we're only staying in Florida for 6 days in its hot summer weather, the BF and I just packed a carry on each. With all the TSA regulations on how much liquids we can bring with us, I thought it'll be nice to share what I have in my carryon luggage.

Review: Le Metier De Beaute True Colour Creme Eyeshadows in Champagne Shimmer & Starry Night

I've revealed the lovely September box of Le Metier De Beaute's Beauty Vault VIP here and now's the time for an official review and swatches after testing these beautiful cream shadows.

Review: Caudalie Pulpe Vitaminée Eye and Lip Cream

Today's post is on the Caudalie Pulpe Vitaminée Eye and Lip Cream. This is probably one of the few products that I've sampled and actually went out and bought the full size afterwards. I originally got this deluxe sample from the Sephora 500 point reward. And to reemphasize how awesome these Sephora deluxe samples are, the sample was half the size of the full size!

But of course this post isn't about Sephora's awesome deluxe samples, but about this little eye cream. I say because this is a pretty tiny bottle.

Now here for some normal stats:

End of Summer 2013 - Beauty Haul

I haven't been hauling as much as I used to now. Trying to have some more self control on spending and not splurge just because it's a good deal or there's a gift with purchase. You will notice that this haul post is filled with products that are new on the market and intrigued me enough to buy.

Shiseido Benefique Haul

Shiseido has a new line of skincare, Benefique. This line launched in US earlier in the year and is only available at Shiseido boutiques (no department store counters). Don't confused this with the other Shiseido line Ibuki that also just launched this year which IS available at department store counters and Sephora. I bought the Benefique NT Emulsion II (150mL) which is a lotion for dry/combination skin types for $45. Review coming soon!

OOTD: Summer Neutrals with a Splash of Brights

A little late post for summer outfits, but here's a "latergram" of one of my favorite work outfits for summer time.  If you've read my "About Me", you know how much I love the color white and there's no better time to wear white than during the sunny weather.
