It's been a while... I haven't been on Blogger for soo long and realized today that all my photos are gone/broken... :( I'll work on fixing these, or maybe I'll just start a new blog...or both? I haven't decided yet. But in the meantime, here's a photo from PMX last weekend! I did gyaru style makeup these are a couple of the photos a photographer friend took! I love them so much. ;w; Hope you'll enjoy too~<br />

Oh and I'll include this section for those of you like me with no prior experience with magnetic polishes ahaha;;;</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b><u>How-to: applying a magnetic polish like Kylie!</u></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
0. To prep your nails, apply a base coat (optional)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1. Apply one (1) coat of Kylie and let dry</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2. Apply second coat of Kylie to <b>ONE NAIL ONLY!</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
3. Immediately after, hold the magnet as close as possible to your nail without touching the nail</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
4. Keep holding for 10-15 seconds....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
4.5. Admire your pretty nail for a while :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
5. Repeat steps 2-4 for your other nails</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
6. Allow your nails to dry fully</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
7. Apply a top coat (optional) and you're finished!</div>

Color - ♥ ♥ ♥<span style="background-color: white;"> </span>♥<span style="background-color: white;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;">♡ - Kylie is a nice, slightly muted and almost berryish color. I like it and it goes well with my skintone!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; line-height: 14px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;">Formula - ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ </span><span style="line-height: 15px;">♥</span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 15px;"> - The formula is thick and looks good even with one coat! But, for the magnetic effect, you do need that 2nd coat.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; line-height: 14px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;">Smoothness - ♥ ♥ ♥ </span><span style="line-height: 15px;">♥</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;"> </span><span style="line-height: 15px;">♥</span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 15px;"> - You can probably tell from the photos but it's SO SMOOTH! I loves it. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; line-height: 14px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;">Price - ♥ </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;">♡ </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;">♡ </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;">♡ </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;">♡ - At $14 full price, I wouldn't buy it. But again, definitely worth <a href="http://drugstore-princess.blogspot.com/2012/04/julep-maven-for-just-one-penny.html" style="color: #9b8c45; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">one penny</a>, or the $4.99 I paid to get it as an add-on to my May box!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;">Overall - ♥ ♥ ♥ </span><span style="line-height: 15px;">♥</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;">♡ - I really like this polish! I just wish I didn't get a janky brush with this one and that the magnetic stripes would come out straighter than wavy like how it is...</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;">I was really amused, because I got this as an add-on to my May Julep Maven box, but it arrived a day before my actual box did! It even shipped out later...</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; line-height: 14px; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;">The brush that came with this polish was really weird... It was all flared out and just looked bad. :( I heard that almost everyone's May box had at least one polish with a messed up brush. Bummer! But, I also heard that we can contact customer service and be sent some replacement brushes, so I am glad for that. The formula for Kylie was good enough that I could still apply the polish without the brush affecting the end result too much though. :)</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;">I emailed Julep customer service about the brush issue and got an email reply (same day!!) saying they would be sending me replacement brushes soon, and will be giving me a tracking number when that happens. Seems like it happened to almost everyone for the May boxes. Julep really has the best customer service!</span></div>

Color - ♥ ♥ <span style="line-height: 15px;">♡</span> <span style="line-height: 15px;">♡</span> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;">♡ - I think the color is nice, just not on me.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; line-height: 14px;">

I emailed Julep about my lost package and they were kind enough to mail me a replacement intro box at no additional charge! I am so appreciative of that. Best customer service! I haven't tried Blake or the scrub yet, but I'll do a proper review/swatch for those when I do. I still cannot believe this was just one penny.

I am <b><i>so incredibly disappointed</i></b>. :( I had really been looking forward to the polishes, especially since the pastel yellow color in the Boho Glam box would have been perfect for spring/Easter. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the package will somehow turn up within the week and I'll still be able to receive my penny box... I'm so sad!!!<br />
<br />
I'm glad others were able to take advantage of the penny deal, though, at least. Please do let me know what you think of your boxes when they arrive to you! Leave a comment or something, if you will.<br />

Oh, and <a href="http://www.hautelook.com/short/3BIQX" target="_blank">Hautelook</a> is having another Urban Decay sale. You can get the fake lashes set that I got in my <a href="http://drugstore-princess.blogspot.com/2012/03/february-hauls.html" target="_blank">February hauls post</a> for $7 (+$5.95 shipping, I believe), rather than the $10 that I got mine for. :) Just thought I'd share.Kiohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14850921893588647690noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6751451973235230835.post-53122861230435087282012-04-04T14:10:00.003-07:002012-04-19T04:26:59.317-07:00Julep Maven for just ONE PENNY!I have some exciting news! <a href="http://julep.com/?r=20135198" target="_blank">Julep Maven</a> has an offer for first-time buyers to get their first (monthly) box for only <b><span style="font-size: large;">$0.01</span></b>! You are in no way obligated to buy any more boxes, since you can choose to only buy 1 box, 3 boxes, 6, or 12. Julep Maven <i>is </i>one of those monthly beauty subscriptions, but only if you want it to be, which for this deal, is really awesome!! I decided to try it out since, well....I've only got a penny to lose, haha. The code is <b>COLOR2012</b>. I'm really excited to get my Boho Glam box! It comes with 2 nail polishes (a grey and a pastel yellow) and I believe an exfoliating cream? For a penny....man this is a steal!<br />
<br />
Here's the link again, if you want to check it out! <a href="http://julep.com/?r=20135198" target="_blank">Julep Maven at julep.com</a><br />
<br />
Wow, this almost sounds like an advertisement...but believe me, it isn't! I'm posting this because I want to share this awesome deal with everyone. :)<br />
<br />
<b><u>Update</u></b>:<br />
<br />
I heard that, even if you choose to only get 1 box, you will be signed up for the monthly subscription. <b><span style="font-size: large;">Make sure you cancel by April 24th if you don't want to be charged $19.99 for next month's box.</span> </b>Otherwise, this penny offer is totally valid~<br />

Let's take a look~<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dkPi2L2Dfpc/T2QAQ4CmcII/AAAAAAAAAS8/IxnTwGF81jA/s1600/elf02.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="214" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dkPi2L2Dfpc/T2QAQ4CmcII/AAAAAAAAAS8/IxnTwGF81jA/s320/elf02.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">From elf: studio retractable lip brush, liquid eyeliner in stardust, nail polish in nude, individual false lashes, studio complexion perfection/tone correcting powder compact, blending eye brush, and studio eyebrow treat & tame in ash.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-cgp9TtixMFc/T2QAPk38rlI/AAAAAAAAASs/Upa0B8NWlh0/s1600/elf-nude.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="214" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-cgp9TtixMFc/T2QAPk38rlI/AAAAAAAAASs/Upa0B8NWlh0/s320/elf-nude.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Nail polish in Nude. After this, I definitely need even more nude laquers, haha.</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-QK9ZWWZm-OE/T2QARFmsmOI/AAAAAAAAATE/ABxmf1Bhlvs/s1600/elf03.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="214" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-QK9ZWWZm-OE/T2QARFmsmOI/AAAAAAAAATE/ABxmf1Bhlvs/s320/elf03.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I love how the eyelash glue comes in a bottle now instead of a tube! I wonder if it'll be easy to use, though.</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-NbwEVqBPeBA/T2QARpeJZGI/AAAAAAAAATM/wHXmF5mOZ0Y/s1600/elf04.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="214" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-NbwEVqBPeBA/T2QARpeJZGI/AAAAAAAAATM/wHXmF5mOZ0Y/s320/elf04.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Stardust looks awesome. Can't wait to layer it over all my liners.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-MdgovyMfxb4/T2QAPBUFUKI/AAAAAAAAASk/B42BGA1ohPM/s1600/elf-brow.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="107" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-MdgovyMfxb4/T2QAPBUFUKI/AAAAAAAAASk/B42BGA1ohPM/s320/elf-brow.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Eyebrow Treat & Tame in Ash. Hopefully this will help my brow hairs match the filled in color as well as lighten them for when I do gyaru makeup, although it looks a bit dark in the tube...</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zMpHoYuZ_Z4/T2QASJou3mI/AAAAAAAAATU/d4Zj1TPE0dY/s1600/elf05.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="214" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zMpHoYuZ_Z4/T2QASJou3mI/AAAAAAAAATU/d4Zj1TPE0dY/s320/elf05.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Cheap, awesome mattifying and color-correcting powder compact for $3?! I'm down.</div><br />

Great new studio brush. It's so handy and I think I'll be keeping this in my purse from now on since the cap will keep any product from getting onto the contents of my purse too. :)</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tYBHYTy3e18/T2QATh_Z6ZI/AAAAAAAAATs/B0n7gmkvw8c/s1600/elf08.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="214" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tYBHYTy3e18/T2QATh_Z6ZI/AAAAAAAAATs/B0n7gmkvw8c/s320/elf08.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I'm glad the bristles of the Essential line has gotten softer! <b>But, this brush is pretty much the exact same as the Studio Contour brush.</b> So I can't really get much use from it since I have the 15-piece Studio set. Maybe it'll go into a future giveaway. ;)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">And finally.....</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-lpVsQCnv564/T2QAUCBm8_I/AAAAAAAAAT0/gLVWrc2CeKc/s1600/ud01.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="214" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-lpVsQCnv564/T2QAUCBm8_I/AAAAAAAAAT0/gLVWrc2CeKc/s320/ud01.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Urban Decay Urban Lash Kit!! At $10 a box, it was an absolute <i>steal</i>. It's still on sale at UD's website, so get it while you can! I have so many fake lashes but have never really used mascara on them since I like to keep them clean.. but I'm so excited to try the mascara with fake lashes! I still can't believe it was only $10. The mascara is $18 normally, the 24/7 pencil is apparently a travel-size so....I dunno...$6.40 ($32 for a set of 5 travel-size haha), and the lashes are normally $15. So seriously, that's a $39.40 value packed into a now-$10 set. I don't understand the business logic behind this but I'm not complaining lol! ♥</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;"><strike>I don't know why I'm not working or sleeping right now, it's like 2:30am lol! </strike></div><div style="text-align: left;">This has been my everyday makeup bag since about late 2009, but the products inside have changed a little bit since then. I feel like my current "everyday bag" is really more of an "eyeliner bag" haha. Man, some of these products are as old as from December 2008.... Or even earlier?! </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">Anwayyy, starting with pencil eyeliners... From left to right: </div><div style="text-align: left;"><b>Sasa </b>Retractable Glittering Eyeliner in 04 Gold (HK, Dec. 2008)</div><div style="text-align: left;"><b>Estee Lauder</b> Artist's Eye Pencil in 01 Softsmudge Black (GWP, 2011?)</div><div style="text-align: left;"><b>Tokidoki</b> Brilliante Glitter Eyeliner in Savana (Sephora, 2011)</div><div style="text-align: left;"><b>Clinique</b> cream shaper for eyes in 01 black diamond (GWP, 2010)</div><div style="text-align: left;"><b>Hot Topic</b> Lip/Eye Pencil in Red (Hot Topic, 2010)</div><div style="text-align: left;"><b>NYX</b> Eye/eyebrow pencil in 901 Black (Little Tokyo, 2009)</div><div style="text-align: left;"><b>Lancome</b> Le Crayon Khol in Black Ebony (GWP, 2011?)</div><div style="text-align: left;"><b>Wet 'n Wild</b> H2O Proof liner in black (Rite Aid, 2009)</div><div style="text-align: left;"><b>Sephora</b> eyes pencil in white (Sephora, 2009?)</div><div style="text-align: left;"><b>Wet 'n Wild</b> H2O Proof liner in brown (Rite Aid, 2009)</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">Liquid liners ♥ (top to bottom)</div><div style="text-align: left;"><b>e.l.f. </b>Liquid Eyeliner in Midnight (e.l.f., Dec. 2010?)</div><div style="text-align: left;"><b>Rimmel</b> Get in Line liner in 600 Copper Brown (gifted, Nov. 2010)</div><div style="text-align: left;"><b>e.l.f.</b> Waterproof Eyeliner Pen in Black (e.l.f., 2009)</div><div style="text-align: left;"><b>Dolly Wink</b> liquid eyeliner pen in black (ordered by Shari, 2011)</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;">And then there's also some misc. items, like a Lancome blusher duo that was a gift from a friend, an e.l.f. concealer pencil in fair, an e.l.f. concealer pencil in medium (for easy-peasy contouring), a Shiseido lipstick in a gorgeous red color that I have barely ever used but is super old LOL, and a comb and some clips.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">Can you believe all of that fits into that clear pencil case-sized bag?? I love it. And I love that if there's only one bag I can toss into my luggage at the last minute, it can be this tiny bag and I'm pretty much all set! :) Maybe I should add another lip product, though~ I've been seriously getting into lipsticks lately!</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

I loooove how the Flurry Up top coat looks over Mermaid to Order, as if they were made for each other. ♥ ♥ I love how sparkly my nails are for the week, and I just hope my rhinestones don't fall off! I know I'm not the most gentle with my nails. Titled as "underwater mermaid" because the colors and sparkles truly remind me of sparkling, bubbling, and clean sea water, with sparkles reflecting off of the scales of tropical fish...or mermaid fins! Love love love. </div><div style="font-size: 10px; text-align: left; "><br /></div><div style="text-align: left; "><span class="Apple-style-span">How is everyone doing?</span><span class="Apple-style-span"> <span class="Apple-style-span" >I've been getting into </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" ><b>gyaru, </b><span class="Apple-style-span">or </span><b>gal</b><span class="Apple-style-span"> style so much recently.
