May 2012 MyGlam




The quality of the bag is decent but I feel meh about the design.


I hated this month. Perfume sample and brushes I don't need.
Lipstick that doesn't match. The nail bling is decent but not worth 10$.




It smells really nice but I can just get a sample at the department store..






It's a hot pink. It is creamy. 




Brushes. Defining eyeliner brush and concealer brush.
I don't wear eyeliner often and I have a Sigma pencil brush that does eyeliner blending perfectly.
I have a studio ELF concealer brush that is awesome.
So, brushes...meh.




I'll post the results when I actually use it.

OPI Nail Polish Do You Lilac It?

I had a formal occasion and I wanted to do my nails myself. Since my dress was lavender, I decided to purchase OPI's Do You Lilac It? online. This nail polish has been praised by many makeup/fashion gurus. :O

I actually had my eye on this nail polish ever since I had a professional manicure at the mall and chose this color. It's a really pretty pastel light purple. 

When painted though, it appears darker than I expected/wished. The color is still gorgeous so I don't mind much.

At first I simply just painted it but after a few days, I decided to add some rhinestones to it.
I really hate the manicures with TOO much bling so I thought this was simple yet pretty. In fact, if you've seen my China Glaze Dress Me Up post, I did the same rhinestone effect there also.

May 2012 Gossip Girl BirchBox

I was really excited when I signed up for BirchBox just in time for a Gossip Girl themed box but I was really disappointed. Pictures and comments below :)



Ta-Da! A Gossip Girl 


The back



The GG themed card :)


What I received in my box



First glimpse of some of the stuff


First item: A twistband

Pretty useful and actually looks pretty good when I wear it. I lost it already though.
The color isn't so bad but Blair would never wear something like this!


I don't even have a beauty blender so I'm going to use this on my brushes. I'm not really happy getting this because I already have a Bare Escentuals Brush shampoo. 

Not sure how this is GG related.


The back.


The wrapped up portion :)


An empty Dr Jart+ BB cream

I contacted BirchBox and a few weeks later, I received 2 Dr. Jart+ Water Fuse BB cream in a bubble mailer. Kudos to them for fixing this problem!


A nail polish. I never heard of this brand until I received it.

It goes on pretty well and like most glitter polishes, it was nearly impossible to remove.

This doesn't seem very GG related either.



I wonder what a "disco nap" is hahaha.


A perfume sample. I wasn't too pleased but it smells wonderful. 

I will definitely won't re-purchase this because the full size is extremely pricey.

Even though it's a perfume sample, I can see how this is GG related :)


The inside provides a really nice description and the ingredients.


A random notecard that I won't be using.

It's kind of cute I suppose.


The back.


Envelope for notecard.


A card promoting Gossip Girl.


What I did with my "Disco Nap" :)
