Julu Jewelry and Some Random Haul

Hi! Ladies...Today, I wanted to share to you my collective haul over
the past few weeks or some a month ago...
it's not much but I'm not even suppose to be buying anything at all so basically most of these are currently already on my luggage bag so that hubby wouldn't see it...:D
and these are my jewelry & cosmetic haul only...


First is from Stephanie of Julu Jewelry, OMG!!these are the prettiest earrings I've ever got in my entire life...honestly..... so please check out her website at www.julujewelry.com she has a lot of great pieces, she even do custom orders. I would definitely order more from her next time.
The Packaging is so beautiful..I don't even want to open it & Stephanie is so sweet she included a surprise for me a pretty brown stud earrings in a very cute container and some candies....
Here's one of the earrings for only $12 , it's totally worth it...
and then this month I have been crazy with perfumes.....this roxy gift set is sooo cheap, so I know I've got to have it and it comes with this drawer-like box which I'm currently been using as my lip gloss container....and the perfume & lotion smells sooo good....it's a light floral & fruity summery smell....
and at last I got my Viva La Juicy & Juicy Couture Perfumes...for an obvious reason I got this for the packaging...The Viva La Juicy is ok...I like that it has a hint of Vanilla in it....and it's light sweet fruity smell....The Juicy Couture smells like an old ladies perfume, it's floral & too strong for me.....
Lately, I haven't been using NailPolish, it's because I only apply nail polishes on my toenails & never on my fingernails and as I have been wearing close shoes, I don't think that I have to put something on my nails but still I couldn't resist the new trend "matte" nail polishes and so when I went to sally's to look for something, and I saw the china galze matte magic top coat, I immediately grab it & I also got the china glaze cords which I love..
China Glaze Matte Magic

China Glaze Cords

Blushes Galore:
Both MAC HK Blushes I got from Krystal's Blog sale like a month ago
& the MAC Feeling is from the CCO

MAC Hello Kitty Blush in Tippy

MAC Hello Kitty Blush in Fun & Games

MAC Blush in Feeling

My Walmart Hard Candy Haul:
Balm Girls Tinted Lip Balm in Elise(I think)& Hard Candy Blush in Living Doll

My Sasa.com Haul:
Silk Whitia Anti-Oxidation Whitening Mask (currently Buy1Get1Free),
Kevin BeautyMaker Love Pupu Cheek & Dariya
Hair Magic Sheet

My Current Favorite Blush:D

Random Stuff from Bath & Body Works, Kroger, Target:
Maybelline Color Sensational Lipcolor
in Make me pink, Pink Please & Born with it...
Swatches

Garnier Skin Renew Anti-Puff Eye Roller that comes
with a free .5oz Radiance Moisture Cream


and Lisa of Shop&Chomp posted about this pure argan oil that she got from an etsy store, and so I got interested & ordered it as soon as I got the name of the seller.....I only tried the argan oil once, I tried applying it on my hair...it's like applying a hair serum but I stopped using it cuz' i hate the smell...so I cannot tell you guys if it really works or not...but if you want to try it you can buy it here .....
and look the seller even included some freebies...
That's it for now....next is the clothing haul if I'm not lazy enough......
Have a great week y'all....


XOXO,

Iris

Pray..Donate..Help..Volunteer..



On Sept. 26, the Philippine capital Manila and its neighboring provinces suffered one of nature's worst beating. Typhoon Ondoy, international code name Ketsana, poured more than a month's worth of rain in six hours, submerging most parts of... the bustling metropolis, drowning at least a hundred people as of press time.

To all who wish to help in the rescue and relief in the Philippines please visit the official
Red Cross website.

They need our prayers, it's not the least we could do.... it's the best thing we could give. We could pray for more kind hearts to offer goods and money, pray for families who lost their loved ones to ease their pain, pray for strength to stand up from this disaster and pray for everyone to keep their faith amidst this tragedy.

XOXO,
