Hi peeps, I did a short haul video - my first - and I tried to keep it short and non-review like. Do people even like to watch haul videos :\? I guess we'll see ^^ Anyway, this is some of the stuff that's come in from my Black Friday shopping. Also I shall announce the surprise giveaway winner (and prize) on my next post!
Mentioned In Video:
Ann Taylor LOFT
Rock & Republic
EkiLove
Sephora Gift Card
No swatches but here is a look at my R&R beauties:
I will do a better review of these later. More importantly, here is my EkiLove package! Everything in Made With EkiLove is made by Eki of A Little Bit Eki. She's a pretty famous blogger as well, tons of reviews on Japanese cosmetics!
Eki is known for her lovely packaging (besides her hime jewelry and hand-sewn pouches. I love the attention to detail :)
I've really been wanting one of her square pouches and she hasn't made them for ages so when I saw them (after making a feeble resistance), I pounced on one after my mom claimed my other EkiLove pouch for herself >_> ehehe
I got blue because I thought it suited me best personality-wise. It came with a lot of goodies and I'm pretty intrigued with what I could do with the nail deco stickers...
I love the roominess of the pouch :D And her pouches are OOS right now but her Twitter says she will be adding some more pouches if you are need of a makeup pouch ~
This cost of one of her makeup pouches may seem a little steep but I think it's worth it since it doesn't expire or anything ^_^ I like how this pouch is all cotton so it can be washed if makeup spills inside. One problem I had with her V-day pouch was that the zipper charm came off because the jump ring (connects the charm to the zipper) stretched out. But I noticed for this pouch she used a much thicker, stronger jump ring :D All the seams are tight and even, no loose threads. You guys probably know I have a weakness for things handmade and I like owning unique, one-of-a-kind items so for me the expenditure was worth it :)
