Hey guys! Here's a quick little blogspot for y'all today! College has started for me and I've been trying to get back to that and trying to juggle posting on here more often!

Anyways, last time I went to the drugstore I noticed some new Wet n' Wild products!! YAY! I really love this brand, guys (definitely not a spon -- but i wish!). It's affordable AND cruelty-free? Yes please~

Let's get started, then!

Megaglo Makeup Stick Blush in Floral Majority ($3.99) // Wet n' Wild came out with a bunch of stick formula products, I only picked up a highlighter and a blush but there's also a countour and a concealer. I really really loved this blush, I absolutely adore the color. It's a kind of a dark-ish pink and it looks so pretty in your cheeks! Although I have to say when you put it on it's a bit patchy but I don't mind that too much so it's fine!

Megaglo Makeup Stick Highlighter in When The Nude Strikes ($3.99) // Unlike the blush, the highlighter wasn't that good. There's too much of glitter in it for my liking, although I think it might work for the inner eye highlight. From the swatch, it looks very pretty but on the face... meh. If you love glitter though... you'll fucking love this!

Mega Cushion Contour in Café Au Slay! ($5.99) // Inspired by the k-beauty movement, Wet n' Wild came out with various cushion products! My drugstore only had the contour so that's what I'm going to talk about~ I really really loved this! I love the color and I love how it blends and how it looks. It's really good and it's the only one I use now. You should DEFINITELY check it out for yourself!

Mega Cushion Matte Lip Cream in Doll So Hard ($4.99) // Another Mega Cushion product that I completely forgot about and didn't even put in the photos because I literally forgot! Oops~ But that should tell you something about how I feel about this lip cream. lol! I really don't like it. It applies very well and the color is very pretty but it dries down soooo matte that it leaves your lips super dry! Like I've tried a bit of matte liquid lipsticks so I know that they're meant to be dry but this one is... I couldn't handle it. So, not a fan of this one!

 So, tell me what you think about these new products and if you've tried any of them, leave a comment down below about what you thought! Don't forget to follow me on bloglovin' so you never miss a post! I'll see you later, babes! Bye~

Hey guys!「(•⌒▽⌒•)ゞ Today we're going to talk about food! YAY! My legit favorite thing ever.

Japan Funbox is a subscription service where they send you monthly japanese snacks. There's three options, the mini ($14.99), original ($32.99) and family ($49.99) box (free worldwide shipping for all three yee!)~ I got the mini box for review a few months ago!

Originally the mini box comes with 6 items but two of them got lost in shipping, I think? I'm not too sure about that. So, I contacted Japan Funbox about what they usually do in this situation and they said they add bonus item(s) on their next box if they choose to continue the subscription. Which sounds pretty fucking awesome to me, tbh!

ANYWAY, let's get on with the review~

• PRETZ TOMATO TASTE - I love these things so much!! And I wish I still had them :( but I literally ate all of them. They were so good. I want more! They taste like pizza to be honest, so so good. It's so crunchy and easy to eat, you just pop it in your mouth!

• WHISTLE CANDY: GRAPE FAVOR - They taste like grape smarties but way bigger! lol! I liked it! When you bite into them, there's a bit of grape juice inside! It also comes with a toy~ I didn't managed to make the whistle loud enough but still! It was fun to try.

•  SHUWABŌ - I had a wild experience with this which you can see in my video below lol! But this tastes like a Starburst type candy. It says that "the lemon and orange flavor mix together in your mouth mysteriously creates a coke flavor" which... I don't know about that. It doesn't taste like coke to me tbh lol! But, still good!

• UME-PACHI - These are popping candy or crackling candy, I don't know how you call them but yeah, that! lol! It's supposed to be a ume and sour ume flavor, which means plum, but I don't know... lol! I freaked out when I was trying to eat them! I've never had any popping candy before so!!! I freaked out, okay?? I didn't know what to do and it hurt!!!  Anyway, yeah lol. 

MY TASTE TEST VIDEO:

Make sure to check out my video, it's more than a bit shit but hopefully it's hilarious? ANYWAY, please make sure to check out Japan Funbox, they're a super cool company and their customer service pals are amazing and understanding! So sorry this post was late and has been sitting in my drafts for forever, waiting for me to type it out! Don't forget to check out my youtube channel since you're already there and I'll see you guys later~

Hey, babes! This post is more than a little late considering we're already in June but I wanted to test out these products before talking about them so I could give you guys a little review. I was super excited to receive my Ipsy bag last month! I mean, look at the stuff that I got! I don't know if it's the best one I've gotten so far because April's had three of the best products and the ones I've used the most often, which you can read here if you've forgotten. But for May, 4 of the 5 products I've used, loved and will use again, so... I don't know? When I try the nail polish, I'll decide if this is the best Ipsy so far but whatever, that's not the point! lol!

May's theme is Travel, it's called "Destination Chic" which is super cute, and the bag potrays this very well! It's in envelop form and it's super lovely! It has to be my favorite bag so far! I'm planning on using it for travelling to put my brushes in. What's been your favorite bag so far?~
On to the products, then:

• Glamour Dolls Gloss Snob in Twirl - Full size! $1.99 - I usually don't like it when I get lipglosses in ipsy bags so I wasn't very excited to try this, especially because of the packaging. I prefer tubes for lipglosses, but I actually didn't mind it after trying it. It wasn't too thick or sticky, although I didn't use very much of it so that might change if I do. I love the color though! It's also sold out in the website which might mean people love it!
• Hikari Cosmetics Shimmer Bronzer in Radiate - Not sure if full sized! $17.99 - I absolutely love this! I love that I got the bronzer when I needed it! It was great timing because I was just about to buy a bronzer. And I love the color of this, I kind of just just take a brush and whirl it around all the colors. It creates this really pretty bronze color with just the right amount of glow to it, but doesn't leave behind thick glitter. What I definitely don't like about this product is the smell. It has such a strong, chemical scent that I honestly can't handle. Once it's on your face, you can't smell it but as soon as you open the product, it's everywhere. It's not bad enough for me to stop using it but it's... something. 
• IT Cosmetics No-Tug Waterproof Mini Gel Eyeliner in Black - Mini sized! Full size is $22.00 - I wasn't very happy when I saw this because... I have enough eyeliners from ipsy especially black ones. But I was happy that it was It Cosmetics! I was super impressed by this! When it says it's waterproof and no-tug, it's no joke. It definitely means it! When this thing dries, it fucking dries, let me tell you! But I really do love this~ I'm glad I got it. 
• Aurora Gel Effect Nail Polish in Safety Orange - Full sized! $12.99 (on sale for $8.99) - I haven't tried this yet but I'm very excited for it! I feel like this would be amazing for toe nails for the beach or the pool! I especially love the color, it's perfect for summer! I don't really have anything else to say lol~
• Smashbox Cosmetics X-Rated Mascara - Mini sized! Full size is $22.00 - I was super excited to get this!! Not only was this the first mascara I've received in Ipsy, and I was very happy that it's Smashbox. I've heard a lot of great things about it and I was very excited to try this out for myself! I definitely love it, it creates a beautiful full effect. There's more length than volume though, definitely. I'm totally going to continue to use this!

That's it! Tell me what you got in your ipsy bag in the comments below! Don't forget to follow me on bloglovin' and if you didn't catch my last post, I have a youtube channel now! Yay! Subscribe because there will be a video up very very soon ;) I'll see you later, babes~

Hey, babes! Finals week is here and guess who's not excited for it? Me! Yay! But the best thing about finals is that the semester is ending! Now that I'm super excited for! Woo~ What are you guys' plans for the summer?

Anyway, on to the post, today I'll be showing you guys the BH Cosmetics Sculpt and Blend Brush Set and my review on it. I bought this set on TJ Maxx. which is great for buying makeup on sale! And it retails for $32, I bought it for $20 something and it's on sale on their website for $16.

The set includes 5 larger brushes for larger areas of the face and 5 smaller brushes for smaller areas of the face and the eyes. These ten brushes are cruelty free and made from synthetic duo fibers. The specific brushes that are included are:

• 123 - Flat Top Buffing Brush
• 124 - Tapered Face Blending Brush
• 125 - Tapered Contour Brush
• 126 - Precision Blush Brush
• 127 - Angled Face Shader Brush
• 128 - Small Deluxe Blending Brush
• 129 - Small Round Blending Brush
• 130 - Large Shader Brush
• 131 - Nose Contour Brush
• 132 - Precision Detailer Brush

I was very excited to try this set! The bristles are super soft to the touch and picks up a lot of product. I adore how gorgeous these brushes look! So aesthetic! *heart eyes emoji* ~ They feel as strong and sturdy as they look. They are very expensive-looking and feeling which surprised me for the price. They look flawless on display on your vanity and I love the white bristles in contrast with the brown. Gorgeous!! I don't think I can say it enough! They work beautifully as well which is perfect! The best thing about this set is that it has all that you could possibly need, the only one that's missing that I wanted is a fanned highlighter brush. I would prefer that instead of the nose contour brush which I will probably never use.

The one negative thing I have to say about it is that when I first got it out of the box, they have a really strong chemical-y smell. But after washing them, the smell thankfully disappeared.

This made me fall in love with BH Cosmetics brushes and now these ones and these ones are on my wishlist~

That's it for today, I hope you guys enjoyed this post! Tell me below what brush set you guys have and love! Don't forget to follow me on bloglovin' and stuff~ I'll see you soon, babes!

It feels like this post has been long overdo! This has been sitting in my drafts for a very long time now just waiting to be written, but truthfully, my inspiration hasn't been in my side lately. WELL! Worry not, it's here! I've been trying to make a habit of testing out products for you guys (totally inspired by Tati who does this for a living and does so always so flawlessly!), on the drugstore side to see if I'd recommend it to you guys or not. That's my main goal for me as blogger. To find something that is really inexpensive but really really good. Because sometimes it can feel like you're searching for a needle in a haysack, you know? Which is precisely where this post comes in!

I know, and I'm sure you've also heard, of Born Pretty Store; a whole-sale sort of online shop for 'girly' cute acessories, fashion and beauty. Because it's a wholesale site, the prices are really low and it ships free internationally. Right away, you think... this is too good to be true. That's exactly what I thought anyway, so when they reached out to me to test out some products I decided it would be a great opportunity to show you guys if they're worth it or not. Specifically, I'll be reviewing these two items from the Born Pretty Makeup Shop: this palette & Shimmer Stick.
First off, the package took SO long to arrive. I know it comes from Signapore or Hong Kong and I didn't pay for any of this so I wasn't expecting it to arrive in like three weeks or anything, but it was insane! It came to the point that I literally thought it got lost in the mail. When it finally arrived, the shimmer stick was messy like there was some black... stuff?... in it and the middle brown shade in the palette looked like someone put their finger in softly... like there was a fingerprint. But other than that, it was fine. I wasn't too bothered by this but  just thought I should let you guys know.

Shimmer Stick by Nanda

• Price: $2.83 
• Shade Chosen: Pink
• Product Description: "Create perfect face,and exquisite makeup. Make your face even more vivid and stereoscopic. Be suitable for professional use and home use."
• Review: Surprisingly, I really liked it. It's exactly what it says it does, it shimmers. Don't expect a glow but it's not a chunky glitter either. This is a perfect medium ground. It blends nicely and doesn't dry down to the point where you'll see your dry patches. It's nice... very very nice! It's very subtle and for $3 this was a very good surprise! 
• Rating: 4/5

i. shimmer stick / ii. first row shades from left to right of palette

Earth Tones Palette

• Price: $6.99
• Shades: 15; 11 shimmers and 4 matte colors.
• Product Description: "100% brand new. It can fit your need to create beautiful facial looks. The color lasts all day without fading or creasing."
• Review: I was very surprised by the pigmentation of these shimmer shades, especially the blue ones! The matte brown shades you see below aren't that great, they're more or less my own skin color so there. Also, it doesn't reaaaaaally last all the day, they definitely fade throughout the day. They blend okay, like it didn't blow my mind or anything, but it wasn't bad. I usually take the metallic shades for the lid or the center of the lid with my finger and that's it. I have done looks with only this palette and, like I said, they fade. I like how many colors you get for the price though.

Here's a special treat for you babes, you get a special 10% off your purchase if you use the code ZMAH10! Yay! You're very welcome hehe~

What do you guys think? Have you tried anything from Born Pretty? What else would you like me to review for you babes? Don't forget to follow me on bloglovin and stuff! I'll see you later, babes~

 Yes, I'm late for this! oops! But better late than never, right? As part of the #playbeautifully campaign elf cosmetics sent me some of their newest products from their february release. I'm now going to review it for you guys, after testing them out a couple of times, I'll tell you if they're worth buying or not. Let's get started then~

I was super excited to see that I got two items from their skincare line, the Daily Hydration Moisterizer & the Facial Massager. Like I said in my skincare routine post, this moisterizer is the best one I've tried so far. I'm super impressed with it and how flawless it makes my skin feel. I have dry skin and while some moisterizers fix that, nothing compares to how smooth soft this makes my skin feel. I've never had my skin feel so perfect and soft. This retails for $8 and yes, of course, it's worth buying. Go and do so right now! Now for the facial massager... I was suspicious. I was sure it wasn't going to work at all and thought it was going to be a waste of money. I'm glad I was proven wrong though! You use this after moisterizing as instructed and it helps your skin absorb the product faster and effortlessly. It's the perfect size for travelling and it only costs $4. If I wasn't given this I propbably wouldn't have tried it but now I'm glad I did and I recommend it to you guys too.
 Next up is the lips! I got the Satin Lipstick in Touch of Berry. The name of all the shades start with "Touch of..." and I feel like that describes this lipstick perfectly. It has more of a sheer pigmentation than anything else and even though it's buildable and moisterizing, I'm not entirely convinced on it. Plus, the fact that the packaging is bulky (although beautiful) is not exactly purse or travel friendly. This retails for $5 and I'm sure if you like a touch of lipstick, you'd love this.

 The palette that I got is not a elf studio palette so I didn't have very high hopes if I'm being honest. The Flawless Eyeshadow in Natural Matte is a very straightforward palette perfect for people who are new to makeup. Despite all of my doubts on the quality, I tried it out and gave it a fair shot. I was insanely surprised by the pigmentation of it, especially because of my skin color, most neutral matte shades don't even show up on it. I was really glad to be proven wrong! I was super impressed with the quality of these shades that I would recommend it to anyone who is new to makeup or needs some new shades (I really love how they're named by the purpose, it reminds me of the wet n' wild ones!). The only thing I didn't like was the packaging because the shadows are kind of deep and it's hard to get in there with your finger. But other than that it's great and the fact that they're only $2 just can't be beaten.
 Last but definitely not least is the Cream Blush Palette in Soft. I absolutely adore this item! From the packaging to the quality of the pigmentation and how there's a color for every skin tone, I find this product flawless. I was sort of nervous to get into it because they look a bit dark in the pan but once you put it on is great and most importantly, it's buildable and blendable without being tacky. It's perfect for every skintone I truly believe this which is something most blush palettes don't keep in mind. The one thing I don't like is that it's a bit hard to get the palette to open the first few times. I'm a bit better at it now but it takes a while to figure out a good technique so be warned for your nails. This retails for $6 and I definitely think it's worth it.

That's it, babes! All in all, I was super impressed by all of the new elf products and I really think they've stepped up their game! What are some new from the drugstore products you want them to try for you guys? Leave me suggestions down below~ Don't forget to follow my bloglovin' because we're super close to 300 followers! YAY! See you soon, darlings!

 I'm so excited to bring you guys this review today because it's produced and manufactured right here in Puerto Rico! I'm talking about Kleurë Cosmetics which is a cruelty-free, completely natural, oil/fragrance free and enviorement friendly makeup and skincare. It's almost too good to be true, right? lol! That's what I thought anyway and I was itching to try it out and tell you guys how they are.

I really wanted to try out their lipsticks but they didn't have any sample sizes they could give me at the moment so I decided to try some on my hand and see how long they would last, if they lasted a long time then I would buy it. lol! let's just say I was impressed. As I swatched it, the texture was rough but the color payoff was beautiful and it really did last a long time, even after hand sanitazer! I'll definitely go back and buy one!

Anyway, the product I did get my hands on was this mineral blush which can also be used as lipstick or eyeshadow. The shade color is called "Sexy Pink" and as you can see the swatch is gorgeous. I don't think the photo picks up on how truly beautiful this color is because of how finely milled the sparkles are; it's gorgeous, guys, I'm serious. I was so impressed with this color omg!
Now, I tested this out as eyeshadow because I thought it would be too glitter-y as a blush for my tastes (but i'll probably try it either way! why not?). I wore this to class so I had a full day with this on and I have to say, it stayed on very well! Because of how finely milled it is, though, you can't pick it up with a brush, you need to use your fingers instead and dab it on because otherwise the sparkle will disappear very quickly. I didn't try to blend it with anything because I wanted to try it on its own for an all over the lid look. The full price is $15 and I think it's a very good price for the amount of product you get, especially because of how multi-purpose it is. (Just thought I should let you guys know that the product that I got is a sample size so the full size one costs $15 - which is a super good deal)

If you guys remember a few months ago, I reviewed the Kawaii Box and I loved it so much that I contacted Blippo so I could review some of their products! Blippo, if you didn't know, is a Japan & Kawaii shop that brings us the lovely Kawaii Box and Japan Candy Box that we adore. I really do love this company, the customer support is so nice and everything they sell is so cute and lovely! Ah! I just love it! Besides my undeniable love for them though, this review will be 100% honest and unbiased, I received these items free of charge for reviewing purposes and yeah! Just wanted to make that clear. Also, stick around for the end because there will be a special giveaway for you babes where you can win some super cute stuff (not these... obviously).

So first off, I don't exactly know when I recieved the box because my apartment complex's security forgot to tell me there was a package waiting for me >_> so I don't know if it was late or if I called exactly when it arrived so yeah, I don't know about that. The shipment comes from Hong Kong and the free shipping takes about 1 to 3 weeks and offers no tracking (which it's weird because I remember Kawaii Box did offer tracking, I don't know if it's different or if they changed it). Considering everything, I stress over packages getting lost in the mail and not arriving at all so I'm just glad it made its way to me! lol!

The items that I received were all nicely packaged in a small box and the first things you see when you open it is some flyers advertising their subscriptions services, mentioned above, and a thank you card from the company which I think is a nice touch. After that were the actual products which are: Hello Kitty scissors, sweet creepe charm in style 2, shiny glitter flakes in white & BK glow in the dark nail polish in style 20.
It's always very nerve-raking getting nail polish in the mail because there's always that fear that it could break while shipping but thankfully, it came in one piece, all safe and sound, so that's good! Actually, this nail polish really surprised me because to be honest, I wasn't expecting much quality. But, when testing this it dried super quickly! I've never had a nail polish dry so quicky, it was amazing! In the picture below I used two coats and you could get away with three if you want a more intese color and it wouldn't have felt too thick. The consitency is actually very thin and sort of water-y but with a lot of pigment to it, I don't know how to describe it really. By the way, this is really embarassing, but I completely forgot this was glow in the dark so I didn't test that out when I painted my nails... oops.

As for the flakes, they were super adorable! They were really easy to put on (even though I did it ungracefully) but I would imagine it'd be much easier with a nail art tool. The packaging also says it works to decorate your cellphone which very 90s of them but cute none the less! I've never done any nail art so this way super fun!!
The Hello Kitty scissors are adorable as heck! They're more of a beauty scissor than anything else, they're really good for evening out your eyebrows or your fake lashes. They're very sharp though so I'd be super extra careful if you use them for your eyebrows because you could easily get hurt. But, they're super super cute and sooo lovely!

And the last but certinly not least, is the crepe charm which is super adorable~  I understand that when some people see this, they might think it would be flimsy and easy to break but honestly, it's the opposite. It's sturdy and has some weight to it, it's very well made and it doesn't feel like it would break easily at all. The only thing that might break easily is the cookie part which is a bit thin. Other than that, though, it's perfect!

Overall, I really enjoyed the stuff they sent me and I think they're all adorable as heck and more than perfect value for money!

SO! The giveaway! I'm super excited to tell you all about it, all you have to do is follow the instructions in the widget below and you could win these super duper adorable items:
