Hauls!

Hello girlies! Again, I've been neglecting to blog :( I'm back with more hauls! :D I know some of you girls might be like DAMN IS SHE RICH OR SOMETHING!? ALL SHE BLOGS ABOUT ARE HAULS! O_O Well, to answer that question.. NO, I just love to shop :) But don't get it wrong, I do know how to budget and I do have bills to pay like any other human being! :(

Anyways, I got lazy and didn't take pictures of what I bought from each store so I just have one photo for all the beauty products and one photo for the clothing/accessories! =P I am so lazyyyyy! D:


Let's see what we got here: some brushes from Michael's, replacement disc sponges for my Studio Fix, Art Deco nail pen, Fix+ (which I absolutely in love with!), Neutrogena Colorstay liquid foundation (I am 240 Medium Beige), Milani Brow Fix brow kit, and Clinique's Blended Face Powder (it comes with a mini brush!).

All from Forever21! :D Purple tube top (the detail is amazing!), satin zebra print belt (I had got this 3 months ago for my friend's birthday and I went back to get myself one because it's so cute!), and a bow headband! :)

That's all I really have to say in this blog. Keeping it short and sweet because I am sick like a beeeeezy. I can't breathe. :(

Btw, EVERYONE GO WATCH UP! CUTEST MOVIE EVERRRRRRRRRRRRR! :D

Hauls + Tag! :)

Hello girlies :) I'm back with more Hauls! :D

ULTA!!!

I went Ulta on Friday before work to just look around and see if there was anything that caught my eye. :) I ended up hauling a bit, haha. There were some sales and stuff. I picked up a mirror that converts into a stand, Revlon creme eyeshadow (finally! I've been meaning to get this to use as a base!), some NYX stuff (felt liner, jumbo e/s pencils, and lipgloss) and some Revlon lippies! :) I decided to sell some of the stuff I got because I am such an impulse buyer and I don't really NEED most of the stuff I bought so I thought it would find loving homes to go to! =P And plus I know how some girls internationally cannot get NYX stuff so yeah. :) Check out my sale section here!

MALL!!!

Today I went to the mall expecting to carry out a bunch of Old Navy flipflops because I was told it was their annual $1 flipflops sale! :D HOWEVER, when I got there, the only sizes left were like.. 9 womens and 10 mens. TOTALLY LIKE DOUBLE MY SIZE! D: I pretty much was sad after that so I decided I wouldn't leave the mall without something to cheer me up :) Well that "something" turned out to be THREE "somethings" hahaha :D

Look how big it is compared to his cell phone, rofl. I told him if he never takes it off, I'm gunna be mad at him! O:)

Girls, remember my other post about Nee's giveaway and I said my favorite HK item was my nerdy HK pouch!? WELL GUESS WHAT I FOUND AT THE SANRIO STORE TODAY!? :D AN NERDY HK LUNCHBOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wooo :) I honestly don't carry my lunch to school with me BUT I'm going to use it as a purse, LOLLL. I asked my boyfriend if he would still go out in public with me if I carried that around, and he said yes! =) Tehehe.

I went into Victoria's Secret and I saw that all of the Very Sexy cosmetics were 75% off!!! :D It was a pretty messy sight though. Empty boxes everywhere and most of the stuff were just laying there. I dug through HARD to find stuff that weren't already swatched and messed up. THEN I had to find their respective boxes. -____- I only came out with two things because those were the only ones I wanted that weren't already fucked up! I got the Mosiac E/S in Frisky (right) and the Mosiac Blush in In Lust (left). Both were only $4.50 each! :D

AbcgrrrL's First Giveawayy!

WOW, another giveaway with Hello Kitty prizes! :) You girls KNOW I'm down when there's HK prizes involved, LOL. Here's the link to her contest! :) It's a very simple contest, good luck to everyone! :D

Here's the link again!!

Review: L'oreal Voluminous Mascara (Curved Brush)

My first ever review, girls :) Yaaaaay!!





Product: 4 out of 5
Packaging: 5 out of 5
Quality: 4 out of 5
Overall: 4 out of 5

Price: $8-$10
Would I repurchase? Yes!
Where to purchase: CVS, Target, Walmart

Pros: I got the one with the curved brush and I absolutely love it :) Gives me lots of volume though it isn't great with lengthening. BUT that is where my Maybelline Lash Stiletto comes into play! Does not clump much either.

Cons: The lengthning issue, but that's not what they claim to do so I shouldn't even be complaing! :P

Conclusion: I love this mascara. It is definitely HG status at an awesome price! :)

So you girls know how much I loveeee Hello Kitty :) So naturally, I'd enter this giveaway by Nee because it's completely dedicated to Hello Kitty and the prizes are A-MAY-ZING! :D So gogogo! I entered and you should too!!

Here's the link again!!

http://jolierendezvous.blogspot.com/2009/05/first-giveaway.html

Edit; I guess I'll include what I did for my entry :)

Here is my Hello Kitty nerd pouch! :D <3


I am makeup-less and my hair is a MESS! Andddd I am wearing my glasses! And to top it off, I'm wearing my retainers.. Eeeeep!!

OMG IT'S ALMOST BEEN A WEEK!!!

It's almost been a week since I've updated. :) I've had soooo many hauls and I thought I'd share with you girls everything I've gotten lately!!!! :D

RITE AID!!!

I totally COULD NOT believe it when I stepped inside Rite Aid and I saw Jesse's Girl Cosmetics!! :D I was like wowow. Since I am still on my makeup ban (BOOHOO!), I got some nail polishes instead. :) They were $3 which isn't THAT bad, I guess? I also got a few bottles of top coat from Sally Hensen since they were buy one get one 50% off!!


The Jessie's Girl nail polishes are cute huh!? The pink is more of a hot pink! The camera picked up the color weird. They're called Hot Pink and Blue Moon. I don't know WHY it's called blue moon when it's a PURPLE color. Again, the camera picked up the color weird. It ISSSS a deep purple!

ONTARIO MILLS!!!

Last week I had gotten into a huge argument with my boyfriend and I told him I did not wanted to see him for a while so two of my girls suggested going to Ontario Mills to do some shopping to take my mind off of him! :D



I finallllllllllly found a Marilyn & James poster! Isn't it SO pretty! It was $8 at Charlotte Russe. I think it's totally worth it. You can't tell from this picture, but the rose bud and Marilyn's lips have a reddish tint while the rest of the poster is black and white! :)


Went to Forever21 to check out some stuff and came out with these two things. I love their bras - they're only $4.50! :) Contrary to the whole you-get-what-you-pay-for type deal, these bras are really comfortable and last me a while! I have like 5 of these all in different colors!! :) I have a HUGE thing for crochet tops so I bought this one to add to my "collection!" ;) It was only $9.80!!


I finalllyyy found a purple&plaid flannel for under $20! :) This is my FIRST short sleeve flannel and I love it. I like how it has a v-neck although you can barely tell in this picture!


MY HELLO KITTY BUILD-A-BEAR!!!! I had been eyeing this darn cat for a while so I just decided to go on a whim and buy her :) I named her WAI MAO, which is chinese for Hello Kitty. I know I knowwww, my friends & I are just THAT creative, LOL.

BARE MINERALS!!!

My sample finally came in :) I got the free sample (had to pay for shipping though!) of the Peace&Love Mineral Foundation. It came with a mini kabuki brush :D I used it and I'd say it is so-so. Nothing special. It also came with a free sample, a moisturizer of some sort. I've yet to try it so I don't have a clue of it works or not, hehehe.

ELF!!!

OMG my ELF haul had finally came in last week! :D So far I am loving the brightening eye colors and the eyeliner&eyeshadow stick. :) I have yet to try the beloved blending eye brush as well as all the other brushes but I WILL SOON!!! =) The concealer stick is like whateverrrrs.

KMART!!!

So my initial purpose of dragging my boyfriend to KMart with me was to get those oh so famous "KMart flats" for $7! I went and they didn't have size 5 in black, let alone ANY COLOR!!! They neverrrrrrrrrrr have size 5 in anythinggggggggggg! D: Anyways, I was looking through the shoes section when I spied with my little eyes something gold and black and OMGGGGGGGGGGG, they were SO cute!!!!

Adorable, no!?!?!? I tried it on and it fit perfectly. It was meant to be :) They were also on sale from $18.99 to $14.99! :D Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :)

CVS!!!

I went to CVS with the intention of buying that crease duo brush pack from Beauty of Essense but I decided against it because I am going to Michael's tomorrow to get some Loew Cornell brushes anyways. I went to the teeth section hoping to find Plus White and I DID!!! =D I hear this stuff does WONDERRRS at whitening teeth so I'm going to give it a try. Maybe a future review? :D I also got a new tooth brush and a loofa with a stick attached SO I CAN SCRUB MY BACK MORE EASILY! :)


My friend recommended me Plus White so I'm going to try it :) My teeth unfortunately has a yellow tint due to all the coffee I drink so I've been meaning to whiten them but I cannot for the life of me justify spending $100+ at the dentist for a professional cleansing. So instead, I opted to buy this kit for only $12.99!!! :D

LAST BUT NOT LEAST!!!

MY NEW BLACKBERRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My sidekick decided it was going to give out on me so I was left with my old old oldddddddddddd cell phone for a few days. I then decided to get the Blackberry Curve 8900 from the store. I was heading to the store, WILLING TO SHELL OUT ABOUT $500 ON THE DAMN THING, when I decided to go on a whim and look for some listings on Craigslist! I FOUND A LISTING WHERE SOME GUY THAT WORKED FOR TMOBILE WON IT IN A CONTEST AND DECIDED TO SELL IT FOR ONLY $300 BECAUSE HE ALREADY HAD A G1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11 I was like OMFGGGGGGGGGGG, this is perfect. So I texted him and he called me back and asked where I lived and I told him Temple City. HE DID TOO! He asked me where I was at the moment and I said I was going down Rosemead Blvd to go back to my boyfriend's house. AND HE TOLD ME HE WAS AT TARGET PLAZA (WHICH IS RIGHT BEFORE MY BOYFRIEND'S HOUSE!) I was like OMFG DON'T MOVE. I'M COMING RIGHT NOW. I HAVE CASH ON HANDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!! :D

So yeap, that's the story of how I got my beloved BlackBerry<3. I got a cuteee purple and silver zebra case for it as you can tell. LET ME TELL YOU, THIS BLACKBERRY IS THE BEST PHONE EVER INVENTED. I LOVE IT TO PIECES! :)

ANDDDDD, do you girls recognize my wallpaper/theme?!?!? :D
