Yay for Black Friday sales!

I took advantage of Coastal Scent's 50% off sale..... 50% off!!!

That's a massive discount! I purchased the Metal Mania Palette here, the palette is $24.95 and with discount it turned out to be $12.48 USD.

Gerry and I split shipping so we ended up paying ≈$30 each in total! ☺

I've always wanted their palettes, Original in particular but I already have a Manly palette which has similiar shades. I really wanted this one here but the next day when I decided to buy it, it was out of stock :(

The shipping was super fast! It came in a week and a half :)

The palette I purchased has 88 shades which have a 'metal' look to it and are all slightly shimmery!

Here are a few pics:

Matte packaging with a slight shimmer

The many gorgeous 88 shades! The sizes of each eyeshadow pan were pretty small...

Has a mirror and along with 2 dual ended sponge applicators on either side

Swatches of 3 shades - Dark purple, black and white.

Not as pigmented as I expected them to be

Without flash and no base

I don't really like sponge applicators that come with packages, I find them pointless because they begin to deteriorate after a few uses.

I'm sooo excited to experiment with it this week!

I hope you're all having a great evening!

HIIIIIIII

Guess what???!

The day finally came...

I got a new camera!!!

A camera that has been on my wishlist for way too long....

I got a Canon PowerShot S95 ♥♥

I've wanted this camera since last year after my 2nd camera died...

But instead I resorted to the Lumix DMC-F3 since I only had $149 in my pocket left after paying for formal and I thought that getting a camera was a higher priority than buying a pair of shoes or a clutch :')

I bought this camera online at eglobaldigitalcameras.com.au for $299 + shipping

This camera retails for $400-500... But if you know me, I am the stingiest little girl alive.

I will not pay full price for an item because I am SURE there is somewhere/someplace out there that's selling it for at least half the price! And there I found eGlobal Digital Cameras.

My online shopping experience at eGlobal Digital Cameras

After I had received my camera I had faced a few issues, the screen protector I received had been the wrong size and the camera charger is absolutely outrageous! It's so loose it's not funny.

I contacted them via chat since there were not emails for me to email to (I'd much prefer emailing over chatting...) They took 25 minutes to reply even when there was no one waiting to chat besides me. And after they had FINALLY replied, they contradicted themselves about my issues and then stopped replying to what I was saying. The customer service of eGlobal Digital Cameras is horrible.

Would I repurchase from this company?

Yes/No. Yes because their digital cameras (and only digital cameras... maybe other capturing devices) are affordable but their accessories are the biggest rip off ever! The case for this camera was $30 on the site where as if I were to buy it off eBay, it would be $10. They overprice a majority of their items so it's better off buying it from eBay!

Also, the shipping is outrageous! When I checked in the beginning of August, the shipping for a camera was $96... then I checked again at the end of August and it was $102. Then I checked a few days ago (Thank god) and it was $47! So I guess the shipping varies....

The issue I have with buying items online on websites like these is that there is no 'feedback' system (like eBay), so they could send you a faulty item and wouldn't care much about your issues if you were to complain!

Beautiful little thing isn't it? :')

Au Reviour Camera #3

We've had a good run...

But I won't miss your faded buttons, the dents on your sides or how you never turned on when I most needed you so It's time to pass this Wrist Strap to a more worthy member :')

The biggest downside to my Lumix was that there was NO focus whatsoever unless it was 20cm away and the flash was blinding! So the Lumix, I reckon, is only good for portrait pictures!

Millenium approves ☺

Bye! I hope you've all had a lovely evening

Hi girls!

Well for the first time in my life I bought and wore extensions!!!!

20" 7 piece 80g Extensions in 1B Natural Black @ $55, I had to!

I didn't really mind whether it was shit or anything cos I just needed it for formal!

But I caved in and wore it yesterday... LOL

I bought it off Ebay for $35 USD with free shipping or and extra $16 USD for 5-7 days!

It was pretty cheap, I think it was about $55 ish all up!
