Etude House December 2014 Pink bird box (Feat. Arctic Aurora collection)

I'm finally back!  I have been working everyday and I come home super tired and poopy.  Everyone else is enjoying their holidays, while I am serving them their food.  So I am finally back, I'm going to hold off sleeping tonight and do this post since I want to get this up already!  I have been super excited about this collection when I saw it on Etude House's instagram photo of the Arctic Aurora collection.  I'd have to say that their nail polishes in this collection is stellar, and after being wowed by the first pink bird box that came with three of their nail polishes, I fell in love with them.  So I was super excited, waiting with anticipation to get the arctic aurora polishes but sadly they did not come in this month's box.  :( 

On the bright side, I got my second box bird box finally.  I actually got this box about a week and a half ago already, but I got caught up with life so I didn't get to post it up in detailed pictures.  If you want to see my latest upcoming posts or just random make up pictures, come visit me at instagram: Christinahello~  See you there! :D

 If you want to check out my first Etude house pink bird box, click here!  This is with the Pink tree collection where if you live in Asia and you buy anything from the Christmas collection, they donate 100 won to the Save the children foundation.  So check that out!

Y.E.T thank you set

About a month ago, Memebox created five "thank you sets" featuring kocostar, YET, Ddung, benton and another brand that is not coming to mind.  Only the YET set caught my eyes because of the lip stain set of 5 different colors along with a liquid liner, 10 piece sheet mask, a lip and cheek cream and the set also came with a free gift all for the price of $30 which was an amazing deal in my eyes.  I used a $5 coupon code so the price came down to $25 plus free shipping.  At first I was going to pass, but then it was sold out and I got super sad.  After two days, it came back in stock and I knew if i didn't get it the second time, I'm totally going to regret it and I was definitely right.

Memebox has taken down the page for these sets, but this was the picture that they had on the set.  They also had swatches which was super helpful since they were an online item and we couldn't swatch them to see if we liked them. So I appreciate Memebox doing swatches for us and I hope they will continue to do that in the future.

Let's get started :). Again, coupons will be included at the end of the post along with my archive list of my past memebox unboxings.

New: Memebox christmas special Winter essential masks

Memebox has come back with another Christmas edition box, and this time it is a mask box.  I think out of all the boxes, the mask box never disappoints so if you are a mask lover, this is the box for you.

Make sure to check out the bottom for your coupon code of $5 off $30 to save yourself some money :D.  Also there are a couple of restock boxes still available so make sure to check those out too.  Click here :D.

Sephora black Friday 2014 haul

 Finishing off the black Friday hauls I did which isn't very much since I only went to two stores.  Nothing else was good.  I was hoping to get a good deal on the Macbook pro too, but there wasn't anything that great for me to splurge. But on the happier note, Sephora had some pretty amazing deals for only $10 for each item.  For those that shop at Sephora, you know that is a steal of a deal since you can step into the store and not wanting to buy anything and then step out of the store paying $100 for two products.  They have this $10 deal every year, and if you want to check the whole list, you can see it on Temptalia's blog page here.

I was eyeing one product indefinitely and would have been super heartbroken if I couldn't buy it and it was the bite beauty lip trio.  Just one of the mini lip glosses sold for $15, so for three for the price was $10 was definitely a steal.  The other products I was on the fence about were the Nest fragrance trio and maybe even the Tarte set if I could get my hands on it.

I tried to wake up at 6:30 am and get to the mall before they opened but I was slightly still sleepy.  I finally got out of bed at 7:30 am and bused to the mall at 8:45 am or so.  I was so scared that everything would have been sold out but I was lucky and everything was still there :D.

Anyways, let's get into the haul :).  I have been talking for too long.

The body shop black friday haul

 I know this is super duper over due, but I get excited with unboxing memeboxes that I always put everything else on the back burner.  I should have uploaded this when it was still available but I just couldn't with work being so busy :S.  So sorry in advance for that but I am going to share with you this awesome deal right here ;).

I believe this deal only happens twice a year, but they always have good deals like 40% off, buy 3 get 3 free.  I also suggest getting the body shop membership since it is worth it as well.  The card itself is $10, but you do get $10 credit back on your birthday month to spend it on anything you would like.  Every $25 you spend before tax, you get one point.  If you get up to 4 points, you get $15 store credit and if you get u to 8 points, you get back $25 store credit and a free renewal for next year's membership.

On top of that, you get 10% off regularly when you buy anything from the store and you get exclusive deals as well.  I think it is a pretty sweet deal.  You can always work up a good deal since I'm going to teach you all the tips and tricks!  Let's get started shall we?

Unboxing: Memebox special #57 For dry and sensitive skin

 Surprise surprise.  What is this?  Another unboxing? LOL  Yes it is time for another unboxing, this time it is for dry and sensitive skin box.  When this box came out, it was screaming my name.  I just had to get it and was actually super excited for it since I love my some skincare products.  I finally got the box after tension with my mail man. 

 My usual mail lady is across the country doing something super cool, so I have this a**hole sub that doesn't do his job.  Where I live right now, it is snowing and there is ice. When I checked my phone app, it again said attempted delivery but he never rang the doorbell, for the fifth time.  So I went to my mail box to get my slip (which is SUPPOSE to be hanging on my front door) and I was like sigh I'll just get my mom to get it since the post office is next to where she works.  Then suddenly, I had a light bulb above my head that went ding!  Maybe he is still working on the mail box down the street, so I went to the corner of my street to peek and sure enough he was there.  I ran as fast as I could, while trying not to slip on the ice and I caught up to him.  I let him finish sorting the letters into the mail box and then asked him personally "Can I please get my parcel."  I don't think he expected me to come and hunt him down and I could tell he was slightly embarrassed.  I don't think he understands that we can track our parcels down, so he didn't think he would get caught being lazy.  

So today when I knew another parcel was going to come, I purposely woke up early to wait at the window to see when the truck was going to come. I waited for a good hour and a half and it never came so I was like, hmm guess he isn't delivering it today since the tracking says it is just processed and not on its way.  I go to my mail box, and there was a key to open the magical compartment at the mail box to get parcels, and my box was there (this one I'm talking about is the Lucky box 11).  I was super happy he at least just left it there :).  Thanks mail man, I'm glad your days are numbered since you don't want to do your job.  My usual mail lady is coming back in 5 days. YEY!

Anyways, enough of my long story.  Let's get to the unboxing shall we?

New coupon codes are out!  Feel free to use them :).  They are included at the bottom of the blog post.

Unboxing: Memebox special OMG 4

 When memebox first released the statement for this box after the disappointment to deliver real OMG products in the past OMG boxes, they said they would ensure use that they would give us the weirdest, quirkest products in the OMG 4.  So i gave memebox my trust and hoped for the best.  I'd have to say this will me my last omg box after getting three out of the four OMG editions.  No more for me.  Maybe because I'm already immuned to all the weird things such as bee venom, snake venom, spider venom, placenta, snail mucus, all of those I'm already immuned to and like.  But I do think this is a good box nonetheless.  Anyways, let's get into it and see what are the contents of the box ;).

OMG 4

 Sneak peek of what is inside the box ;).  You can't really see much eh? BUAHAHAH

I apologize in advance for the dis-function of my nose.  I'm still sick and have a runny nose, therefore I can't really smell anything so I can't really do the smell-o-scale for you guys.  I'm sorry :(.
