It has taken me weeks to finally make a list of the items I have received as gifts and bought as presents to myself of course. The Holiday Season was busy this year...as there was barely any time for blogging. I've simply put the items away, for now, in its original packaging until the day when I can finally make the time to take photos! And today was that day. Enjoy! & Stay tuned for part 2 & individual reviews.

My absolutely favourite is Prada Candy - smells like sweet vanilla. Delicious.

I've been going through my stash of samples and skincare like there's no tomorrow! This is great for my drawers are slowly becoming empti-er. I've been committed to using skincare products daily - at least three times a day. Individual reviews to come!

I've had Maybelline Eyestudio Color Explosion for sometime now. The product price ranges from $5.99 to $10.99. I believe it is a good deal for the money. The quality is also not bad, and is much better when used with eye-shadow primer. It doesn't hurt to try it!

This eye-shadow is a 5-shade palette that includes a liner shade, a light base, eyelid shade, crease shade, and a luminizing silver top coat.

The light purple base was not as pigmented as the rest of the palette, but overall, I was happy with final results. I can even wear the liner by itself. It's a nice deep purple colour.
