Manila Philippines Haul

Thought I would share the goodies I picked up from my trip to Manila, Philippines with you all. It was my first time visiting the area. We stayed at the Peninsula hotel.

Zoya Nail Polish Haul

Mid January 2013 Zoya was having a sale where you could get 3 nail polishes for free. the catch was that you had to pay $10 shipping per 3. If you want an up close look at the polishes I bought stay tuned for the video.
I love these polishes, they are free from formaldehyde, tuluene, dibutyl phthalate and camphor. Cruelty Free. Paraben Free.

Polishes shown: Megan, Wednesday, Snow White, Jolene, Rica, Daul and Trixie

Bundle Monster Puff VS BeautyBlender

Bundle Monster 4 Pc Pro Beauty Flawless Makeup Blender Foundation Puff  Sponges

I have been a big fan of the BeautyBlender sponge. I was so excited after I used this to apply my foundation. My excitement was soon dampened by the realization that to replace this would be really pricey! So I started my mission to try and find a dupe for this. I came across the 4 pc puff sponges from Bundle Monster on Amazon found here http://www.bundlemonster.com/beauty-accessories/4pc-pro-beauty-flawless-makeup-blender-foundation-puff-sponges.html

I bought the sponges with my own money and these are all my own opinions.

I didn't find them to be dupes at all but still an interesting tool. Check out my video here:

Self Portraits

Today I filmed and edited a Costco Haul. I recently discovered that you can upload your own thumbnails on YouTube rather than settle for those awkwardly captured ones selected for you. So today after I filmed the video linked below. I decided to try to capture a few self portraits using a point and shoot and timer. I just thought I would share them.

My video is below =)
