This past weekend Rock  & Republic had their sample sale, Friday to Sunday. I didn't mention it on here but if you follow my Twitter, you would have known about this event. I decided at last minute to go on Friday. Let me tell you how insane the event was! The line to purchase took more than 2 hours!!! I stood in line for 2.5 hours. Here's what I got...

I got two blushes and three eyeshadows.

One thing I found bad about the sample sale is that they had combo sets, and not singles where you get to choose the items you want. For that reason, I decided to only buy one blush set. Two of the blushes were sold out so I had no clue what they were. All the combos only had one blush color I liked and the other I didn't care for. For that reason, I took the best one which was the Kinky/Bedroom set.

This blush is in Kinky. It's a gorgeous, matte, hot pink color. I've been wanting this for a long time so I was happy to finally get it!

The employees searched and couldn't find Bedroom. They gave me the opportunity to either get the tester Bedroom or the two blushes that was alone (their partners in the combo were sold out). :/ I didn't want any of them... lol~ :X I got really lucky because they decided to go through all their blushes and realized Call Me was sold out. I asked them if I can get Call Me tester blush as a combo with the Kinky. They said yes... yippie~ I know you're thinking why would I get the tester blush eh!?!? I usually wouldn't take the tester but they make you swatch the items with eyeshadow sponges. I didn't think it would be disgusting since people had to use the sponges. :/ Plus, it looks pretty new.

This is in Call Me. It's a pretty peachy with gold specks. Since it was a tester, they didn't have the box. It's all good because I don't need a box... hehe~

Here's a swatch of the blushes. The left one is Call Me and the right one is Kinky.

If you're wondering what I think about these blushes, I love them!!! I also did a review on another R&R blush in Tease some time ago. You should check out the swatch, as well as, my review... hehe~ ;) R&R blushes are so much better than MAC blushes in my opinion... hehe~ :X That's how much I love R&R blushes!!! :)

The blushes weren't the only thing I got. I've been wanting to try their eyeshadows. Again they had combos which suckage in my opinion... lol~ :X Most of the combos I only like had one eyeshadow out of three that caught my attention. The one I ended up getting had two out of the three I like. Let me tell you I changed my mind when I swatched all the eyeshadows at home... hehe~ I ended up liking all three!... wheee~ PLEASE don't be in shocked to see NOT my typical colors!... hehe~ :P

This is in Ambition. Yes, it's my typical color and that's why I didn't like it at first... hehe~ :P When I swatched it over there, it looked gold to me. When I swatched it at home and under the sun, I was shocked to see gold with blue specks. I have never seen an eyeshadow like this before!

This is in Brink. It's a blue but in certain angles you see green or gold specks. Another unique color which I love!!! :)

The last eyeshadow is in Lawsuit. It's a brown with blue and in certain angle green specks. Another unique color!!! :)

Here are the swatches of the eyeshadows. From the left is Ambition, middle is Brink, and the right one is Lawsuit.

These eyeshadows feel like silk when you touch them. I am in love with them!... hehe~


Now for my Forever 21 haul...

I fell in love with this angel wings earrings! The top two rows have white crystals but it's hard to see in the picture... hehe~

I thought this earring was cute... hehe~ It's a leaf with three rows of white crystals and black dangling gem.

This is an owl ring. It's gold with tons of white crystals... hehe~


I was contacted by Violet from Skin Store. She thought I would be interested in passing along this giveaway to my readers. I thought it wouldn't hurt... hehe~ The website is giving away 23 Clarisonic Opals ($245), one a day, which started on November 5th. Here's the entry form and the rule for the giveaway. Good luck!
