This has got to be one of my most exciting purchases ever. Well, okay, I always get giddy when I buy something. But... you get the feeling.
I've always wanted to try the Urban Decay 24/7 Eye Pencils but always ended up putting off buying them. I was even more gaga to buy these pencils when Urban Decay came up with the VIP and Velvet Rope sets. But since I wasn't big on makeup then, I put purchasing these babies on hold for while. When I saw that 24/7 Super Stash a month ago, I didn't think twice on placing an order. Think about nine 24/7 pencil liners for $36, not bad eh? Glad to finally have these amazing pencils in my collection. Now I'm lemming for MUFE Aqua Eyes.
The main reason I got Too Faced's Glamour Revolution is because of the Chocolate Soleil Matte Bronzing Powder that I've been meaning to try. As most of you know, I'm obsessed in looking tanned. My beloved is, too. I enjoy faking a tan coz it makes me look so much healthier and radiant. I feel like a completely different person when I'm tanned. I'm not sure if it's just me, but I feel a whole lot sexier with a good tan. I have to be honest though, I hate being out in the sun. I love going to the beach but I always make sure that I'm bathed in sunscreen before exposing myself to the harmful rays of the sun. I just don't want to get sunburned. Anyway, instead of purchasing just the bronzer which already retails for $28, I thought, why don't I just add a few more bucks and get this set that has everything I'll ever need sans mascara. It has a mini eyeshadow primer, 9 eyeshadows, 3 lipglosses, 1blush and 1bronzer. Isn't that a good deal for $39.50? Imagine $100 worth of Too Faced products in one compact set. I sure wouldn't pass on that.
I love to accessorize. I don't always wear necklaces but I always have to be wearing earrings and rings. These were purchased at a hobbies and crafts store near my place. They're pretty inexpensive at $1.50-$2 a piece.
There goes my latest haul. I probably won't be buying anything for the next few weeks so I'll be doing mostly reviews of products I've had and used for some time but never got the chance to write about them.
What have you bought recently?

A very nice haul, Tish. I tried the tanned look but I looked weird. :P The Urban Decay pencils are great, according to some. I'll wait for your reviews. :)
Nice haul! I also love sets, they're really a great value! I have the World Domination Tour Set, and I'm totally loving it! :)
great haul! the chocolate bronzer sounds yummy hehe
I'm working on them, Pammy. I've road tested them as well as taken photos of the swatches. I can't wait to share with you all my take on these much loved eye pencils!
Ooh... I was thinking of getting the World Tour Domination Set, but... eh. I think Glamour Revolution's going to get a lot of lovin from me. Oh man, now I'm thinking of getting more from Too Faced.
The chocolate bronzer looks and smells yummy, Amynaree! Well, Too Faced says it's got real cocoa powder in it. We'll see after a few days. I really haven't road tested it enough to say much about it.
I'll wait for your review on the UD 24/7 liners. I am lemming for this for the longest time but I read a review that for humid climates and oily lids they don't fair that well compared to MUFE. Now I'm torn between the 2.
Oh gee, Nikki. I don't know how helpful my review will be since my lids aren't so oily, plus I always use an eyeshadow primer whether I do a full eye make-up or not. But... we'll see. I might just try going out without an eye primer to see how UD 24/7 pencil liners will hold up to the heat.
wow...I'll be watching out for your review...I'm thinking of getting that TF palette for Christmas. haha! Thanks so much!
I'm working on it, Angela! Watch out for it. It's gonna be my next post.
I've been eyeing these :P
can't wait for your review!
Oh gee... I've been working on my reviews but I haven't been able to finish them. I really gotta have to spend time on 'em. I should be done by tomorrow night, hopefully
