*~Candy Doll~*

The Candy Doll brand is really growing on me these days~~ever since I tried their lipstick in pink, I've been in love!! The packaging is too adorable to resist and i do love my share of pink and stripes!


I absolutely love the colour~~I've more of a cutesy style so my lipstick (me = not a fan of lipgloss because the gloss tends to fade and i'm too lazy to reapply constantly) is always light pink. It's so hard to find a good light pink shade that's not too light...and I feel that this colour is perfect! At CAD$25, it's really good price point too! I've definitely received a compliment or two when I wore this (hasn't happened for my other ones yet) n_n so I highly recommend this buy!


The colour seems like it would pair well with various gloss colours too so definitely recommended for you glossy girls out there as well!

I'm curious to try the other colours - I'll probably try the nude colour (Vanilla Beige) next because I feel like orange (Apricot Beige) is quite hard to pull off - haha my style isn't as funky~~

I recently discovered that they have a foundation and concealer line too! n_n so excited...found them on ebay since I only see the lipstick, lipgloss, and blush products at Pacific Mall in Toronto. The prices online are in line with retail prices, so I might order them online soon~~
btw...for the products - just click on the title/picture for the link to the eBay auction~~

*~My Beauty Diary~*

I'm a sucker for packaging and I'm always trying new type of masks...just got this package the other day from My Beauty Diary (on sale at T&T supermarket for only CAD$19!) - a really good deal since there are a total of 17 masks and they're all different types so you can sample each one and see what suits you :) this is very ideal especially for a newcomer to the brand like me who wants to try every type! Plus the alice theme really got me - it's so whimsical!!

There are 3 editions (pink, blue, yellow) - a lot of the masks are similar (there is 2 bonus masks that are different - I think that's what differentiate the 3 editions...They're available on Sasa.com which has really reasonable pricing (you can also find them on ebay if you can't find them locally but I find the ebay prices are much higher than on Sasa.com)

Two of them are Arbutin Whitening Mask. The other 15 sheet masks are Bulgarian White Rose Mask, Bird’s Nest Mask, Southern France Apricot Mask, Aloe Mask, Cooling Mask, Black Pearl Mask, Pearl Powder Mask, Japanese Cherry Blossom Mask, Red Wine Mask, Apple Polyphenol Mask, Strawberrt Yogurt Mask, Q10 Mask, Mixed Berries Mask, Sake Yeast Mask and Natto Mask, respectively.

Two of them are Collagen Firming Mask. The other 15 sheet masks are Bulgarian White Rose Mask, Bird’s Nest Mask, Southern France Apricot Mask, Aloe Mask, Cooling Mask, Black Pearl Mask, Pearl Powder Mask, Japanese Cherry Blossom Mask, Red Wine Mask, Apple Polyphenol Mask, Strawberrt Yogurt Mask, Q10 Mask, Mixed Berries Mask, Sake Yeast Mask and Natto Mask, respectively.



Sasa.com: My Beauty Diary - Alice All In One Mask Set (Blue) - USD17.50
Two of them are Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing Mask. The rest are other sheet masks, one for each item. The other 15 sheet masks are Bulgarian White Rose Mask, Bird’s Nest Mask, Southern France Apricot Mask, Aloe Mask, Cooling Mask, Black Pearl Mask, Pearl Powder Mask, Japanese Cherry Blossom Mask, Red Wine Mask, Apple Polyphenol Mask, Strawberrt Yogurt Mask, Q10 Mask, Mixed Berries Mask, Sake Yeast Mask and Natto Mask, respectively.


The one I got was the yellow box set...I just tried the Pearl Power mask for whitening last night and it smells amazing - the effect is average - it's just the normal effect you would expect for a mask at this price point. I did see my skin being whiter right after i took off the mask but typically returns to normal after an hour or so like many other masks...the mask did stay cool for the 30 minutes that I had on which is nice and relaxing (i've had some masks that get warm or dry out pretty quickly)...overall I did it because it smells and feels quite nice and price is very reasonable for casual every day use...but don't expect intense results!
Do be careful of allergies or if you have sensitive skin because my mom tried the Natto mask and her skin turned red for a little bit...

*~Pearls~*

just wanted to share this etsy seller, erinkeys, with you girls...and any SATC fan! i love the pearl necklace - it's perfect for an evening dress but also can be worn casually...plus the price is very reasonable! here are some of my picks!

the colour reminds me of the tiffany blue - very elegant indeed! there are several colours available in store (at various price points...i'm assuming depending on the popularity of the colour?)


this definitely reminds me of a Club Monaco style necklace that retails for around $90! a very great look for less - and quite chic for everyday or office wear :)


i love a matching set - and this bracelet is too adorable to resist!
