For the people who follow my twitter, you know I posted the hat on New Year's Eve. I got this free at a casino we went to... hehe~ Tobey wanted to celebrate by wearing it. Okay, not! :P He wanted to chew it into pieces but I wanted him to model the hat first. Isn't he cute!?!? :)
Speaking of Tobey, January 2nd will mark his 11th year anniversary since he came to live with us. Time sure flies!!! He's been the best thing in my life. :) I love you Tobey!!!
I hope everyone had a good New Years!!! I decided to do something different for this year. I have my own personal resolution (private), but decided to make one for beauty-related topic... hehe~ Here's my resolution for the coming 2011.
I will evaluate my resolution at the end of the year on my blog. You guys will follow my adventure with me.
What are your beauty resolution for 2011?
Starting with the new, I need to end with the old... hehe~ I'm going to end with my "Empty Products of the Month".
Finished Products for December 2010
Lancome Renergie Cream
I did a thorough review on this cream and still think it's a great hydrating product. It really helped during my dry, winter weather skin. When it comes to the anti-aging aspect, I'm not too sure. I don't have that much signs of aging, therefore, I wouldn't notice if it worked. It felt nice on the skin, melt like butter, lasted all day, and didn't have to reapply until after I cleanse... hehe`
Would I repurchase this: Yes and no. At first, I thought no since it's kind of on the pricey side. On the other hand, I'm starting to think good products will help me in the future with my wrinkles *sigh*. Then again I might find other products that work better... hehe~
The Body Shop Vitamin E Hydrating Toner
I also reviewed this product on my blog. It's a great, refreshing toner! I love the idea of a toner made from an organic company. It makes me feel good to know that I'm not putting something bad on my face. I also like that it's alcohol-free. Please don't use a toner with alcohol. Alcohol is a drying effect on the skin. It's a big no no... hehe~
Would I repurchase this: Yes, but not right now. I still have 3 toners I need to use up. I need to follow my New Year's Resolution... hehe~
Avon Concealer
This is an old concealer from Avon. I don't even know the name for this stick since the label fell off... lol~ How embarrassing! :X It's actually my very first concealer I ever purchased. I can't even find the name on Avon website... lol~ Either they changed the packaging or it's discontinued. :X It's actually not a bad concealer for blemishes, any reddish spots. For dark circles, I don't think it works that great. I'm really blessed since my dark circles are not that bad. A little dab of concealer of any type will cover it with foundation/BB creams.
Would I repurchase this: Probably no since I can't figure out if they changed the packaging or discontinued... hehe~ :X
EOS Lip Balm
I did a review on this lip balm. Other than the packaging is unique and adorable, it wasn't very moisturizing at all. :( I had to reapply every hour to two to feel some moisture on my lips. I think the more I used this product, the more I craved for something on my lips. I also noticed the transition stage from this lip balm to the next was extremely terrible. The outer layer of my lips peeled off for 2-3 days. I'm not too sure why. :/
Would I repurchase this: No!!!
Face Secrets Make-up Brush Towelettes
I bought this long, long time ago. When I used it the first week, I was kind of disappointed. It did clean the brushes but I still felt a sticky residue on the brushes. This is all mentality because in my head it triggered it wasn't clean, even though, through naked eyes it was... hehe~ :X Since the way I felt, I stopped using it after one week. I decided to retry the wipes after a month. The wipes were dried out!... lol~ Instead of throwing away and being a waste, I used the wipes to thorough clean my brushes once a month with aloe vera. It actually came in handy... hehe~
Would I repurchase this: No.
