{ HAUL } Mini Beauty Haul of August.

It’s been awhile since I made the last haul post, february to be precise… So here I come with this mini-haul, yes, mini, don’t expect too much, hahaha!

Since then I’ve been winning a few giveaways so it wasn’t that hard, but I love buying and love getting new things, especially when my wishlist is so long and full of lovely things.

Sadly I have no job to afford not even 1% of the things I want, but my husband took pity on me and told me to pick a few things from my wishlist.

Hace bastante que no hago un haul, desde febrero para ser exactos… Así que aquí les traigo este mini-haul, sí, mini, no esperen demasiado, jajaja!

Desde entonces he ganado algunos giveaways, así que no se hizo tan difícil, pero me encanta comprar cosas nuevas, especialmente cuando mi wishlist es tan larga y llena de cosas bonitas.

Lamentablemente no tengo trabajo ni para pagar el 1% de lo que quiero, por suerte mi marido se apiadó de mi y me dijo que me eligiera alguna que otra cosita de mi wishlist.

Everything is from ebay, from 2 different sellers: f2plus1 and cosmetic.love, both well-known, reliable and send samples.
Both have free shipping and send from Korea.

Lo compré todo en ebay, en 2 vendedores diferentes: f2plus1 y cosmetic.love, los dos muy conocidos, confiables y envían muestras.
Los dos tienen envío gratuito y envían desde Corea.

SKIN FOOD Salmon Brightening Eye Cream - 30g. 
Price: US$18,99.

I really, like really really needed an eye cream, since the one I was using wasn’t doing anything at all, and since I read so many great things about this one I went for it.
I know, it’s expensive, but 30g. for a cream that looks will last forever, is not that much since a little goes a long way.

SKIN FOOD Salmon Brightening Eye Cream - 30g. 
Precio: €14,23.

Necesitaba muy mucho un contorno de ojos, ya que la que estaba usando no me hacía nada, y como había leído tantas cosas buenas sobre esta crema, la compré.
Lo se, es carilla, pero 30g. por una crema que me da a mi que va a durar dos vidas, no es tanto ya que cunde muchísimo.

Holika Holika Daily Garden Acerola Cleansing Foam - 120ml. 
Price: US$6,99.

I’ve been meaning to buy a cleansing foam since I tried the Missha Super Aqua Cleansing Foam and liked it a lot, but never decided on which one to buy.
I’ve been wanting the Etude House Baking Powder for BB cream for the longest time, but by the time I bought this one it totally slipped my mind.
Let’s just say I bought the Holika Holika one because it was indicated for wrinkle care and to provide elasticity to the skin.

Holika Holika Daily Garden Acerola Cleansing Foam - 120ml. 
Precio: €5,24.

Quería comprar una de estas cremas limpiadoras espumosas desde que probé la Missha Super Aqua Cleansing Foam y me encantó, pero nunca me decidía por una.
Le tenía muchísimas ganas a la Baking Powder BB de Etude House, pero cuando compré esta se me fue totalmente de la cabeza.
Digamos que me decidí por la de Holika Holika porque está indicada para disminuir las arrugas y aportar elasticidad a la piel.

THE FACE SHOP Rice Ceramide Moisture Cream - 45ml. 
Price: US$11,26.

I needed a face cream, and I was about to buy the gel type great for oily and mixed types, but then RosenRot from My beauty Spells told me it was a great cream and she prefered it over the gel type ones.
Here is her review in case you want to check it out, I’ll be doing mine within next week since I really liked it!

THE FACE SHOP Rice Ceramide Moisture Cream - 45ml. 
Precio: €8,44.

Necesitaba una crema para la cara, y casi me compro las de tipo gel indicadas para piel grasa y mixta, pero RosenRot de My beauty Spells me dijo que esta era una crema muy buena y que la prefería a las de gel.
Aquí está su review por si quieren leerla, Yo haré la mía la próxima semana ya que me ha gustado mucho!

Holika Holika Jewel-light Waterproof Eyeliner - 2.2g. 
Price: US$5,39 each.

I’ve been lusting over these eyeliners for a while, so I bought two of them: No.7 Diamond Wonkaereot and No.14 Mystic Blue. Both are lovely and really good...
I can’t wait to get them all, hahaha!!

Holika Holika Jewel-light Waterproof Eyeliner - 2.2g. 
Precio: €4,04 cada uno.

He estado babeando por estos delineadores desde hace un tiempo, así que compré dos: No.7 Diamond Wonkaereot y No.14 Mystic Blue. Los dos son divinos y muy buenos…
No puedo esperar a comprarlos todos, jajaja!!

Shopping & Gifts.

Apart from the famous ASOS bags, this past month, I bought a few more things and got one care package more from Argentina.
The first two dresses are from Vero Moda, one half the price, the other from the new collection that I already wore here; both are beautiful and the quality is great!
An ivory tulle skirt and lace sweater from wholesale-dress.net; both are very pretty but the quality is not very good. Sadly I have to fix the skirt since it doesn't fit properly due to my big hip. Apart from that I'm not buying from this shop anymore because their shipping fee became ridiculous.
A red bag from the japanese shop dreamV, which I bought to replace this one I'm selling. And last but not least, a tee from Zara and an oversized sweater from Bershka, 10€ both; 10€ that I was saving to buy Essence nail-polishes, but I was so mad I didn't know where the shop that sells Essence was, that I spent them on the tee and the sweater, hahaha!
And this time, the care package was sent by Ants, a friend from Argentina, one day I was whining on facebook how I missed alfajores, that she told me she would sent some, I still have to send her some sweet things from here (I didn't forget, baby! <3)

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Aparte de los ya famosos bolsos de ASOS, este mes compré unas cositas y recibí un paquetito de regalo desde Argentina.
Los vestidos son los dos de Vero Moda, uno que lo compré en rebajas y a mitad de precio, y otro de la nueva colección, que ya usé aquí. Los dos son hermosos y de una gran calidad!
Un sweater y una falda de wholesale-dress.net, que si bien son super bonitos, las calidad nos es la mejor. Lamentablemente tengo que arreglar la falda porque no me queda bien gracias a mis caderotas. Pero mas allá de eso, no compraré mas aquí porque el coste de envío se encareció muchisimo.
Un bolso rojo de la tienda Japonesa dreamV, que compré para reemplazar este que estoy vendiendo. Y por último una camiseta de Zara y un sweater oversized de Bershka, 10€ las dos cosas, 10€ que estaba guardando para esamltes de uñas Essence, pero que al no saber donde quedaba la tienda en donde venden la marca, me enojé y me los gasté en la camiseta y el sweater, jajaja!
Y esta vez, el paquetito regalo vino de parte de mi amiga Ants de Argentina, que despues de leerme quejandome en facebook sobre como extraño los alfajores Argentinos, me envió unos cuantos, todavía tengo que enviarle yo a ella chuches y golosinas Españolas (no me he olvidado <3)

The pink that was not.

I've been wanting a pink bag to replace the one I sold even before selling it. But I really can't find it, or so it looks.
There was a super cute satchel from ASOS I've been eyeing, but never decided because the colour said "Coral", although the photos don't show it, and after lurking I found a real photo, and yes it was coral. That's why I bought the same but in "Mint" colour.
But I still needed a pink one, that's why I took the chances with this one that looked the pink I wanted, although the web said "Lilac".

And guess what I've learned from this experience? When it comes to ASOS, don't trust the photo, and instead trust the colour it says it is, even though the photo shows something else. The lilac IS lilac, and the mint is even darker than mint.

So here's the thing; the bag is lovely, but the colour is not what I expected, meaning I still need that pink bag. And while ASOS let you return the products, I have to pay for the shipping, which I wouldn't mind if it wasn't for the fact that I'll have to pay more thanks to the size of the box both bags came, plus the bag will dance inside that box all the way to the UK.

I don't even know why I'm writing this actually, since I already made my decision of returning it, but while today I was taking photos to compare colours, I found it so cute that I had my doubts for a moment. If it wasn't for the fact that I need a pink bag, I'd keep it, but who am I going to fool, if I don't find a pink one ASAP, I'll probably buy something else, hehehe...

Ugghhhh, see, it's so cute!!! I really like it with white and ivory!!! What would you do?

Winter Sales & Gifts.

Last month I went on a shopping spree and bought a few things that I actually didn't need, but I can never say no to cute things on sale, hahaha!
I didn't spend much, to be honest, I actually buy when things are for a good price, like at Blanco Stock, which is basically an outlet with things from past seasons and everything is discounted around a 70%. Of course I'd like to buy things of better quality, but I rather have lots of clothes to wear in different ways, than having one that costs as much as 15 of the others; because I don't have a job, I'm not rich, my parents only give me money on special occasions plus I don't live with them and of course I'm not a popular blogger with sponsors xP So my husband gives me what he can, whenever he can, even if he should be doing something else, and more important, with it.

Why am I saying all this? I don't know, I just needed to get it out, haha! I grew up very very spoiled, like very very much! No one ever said "no" to me, and now that I have a family of my own and I realize I have to quit being as spoiled as I used, it feels strange and sometimes uncomfortable. That's why I try not to spoil my son, I indulge him, but I say "no" a lot.

Anyway, apart from all the babbling, I'm sure, you don't care, here is what I bought.

Pink Sweater, Blanco - Bambi Cardigan, syrupXdisney - Dress, Blanco - Poodles Sweater, Blanco -
Bag, Blanco - Skirt, Blanco - Leatherette Shorts, Vero Moda.


Everything from Blanco.


Erised Mirror, Wooden Rocking horse, Happy/Sad, Kissing Birds, Flower Birds Necklaces & Rings from ebay
- Daisies Necklace, Blanco - Carrousel & Clock Earrings, Bijou Brigitte.

And also a package full of sweet things from my Mother Land, courtesy of my godmother.
It's funny how I knew what was inside the package, and yet when I opened I almost started to cry when I saw all those delicious "alfajores", with "dulce de leche" and real chocolate and not that Nuttella thing (YES! I'm saying it out loud, I hate nuttella, probably because in this country they put its version (nocilla) to EVERYTHING, ughhh!)
And don't be fooled, that box just contains lace and two scarves, hahaha. It actually fooled me... xP

Book for Luc - Alfajores & Candy for everyone!

A box full of lace, which I don't know, for the life of me, what I'm going to do with it; and yellow scarves,
which remind me of the belt I had to wear with my jumper-skirt for school xDD

Call me shallow, but shopping makes me happy!

Today I received the last things I bought, but I'll show you next week or so because I'm really unhappy with most of them, so I'll take a chill pill, iron them and next week maybe, I'll like them.

Anyway, here are some things I've been receiving and buying IRL until last week.

Shoes & glasses (I couldn't believe how comfy these shoes were, when I tried them on!) from Blanco.



No, you're not drunk, these are two pairs of heart shaped glasses. There was a mistake with the shop and I ended paying and receiving two of them. Want one? from ebay.



Octopus necklace that will look great with my Mermaid print from etsy.



Black suspenders from ebay.



Red quilted bag from the local street market.



Socks from Blanco.



Dresses fro Aprilia from ebay.



Boots fro Aprilia from ebay.





Brown & Red bags from lovelyshoes.net.



Dress from Blanco.

Oh, how I love shopping!

Lately I've been buying quit a lot thanks to my mum b-day gift, therefore I've been receiving some of them. There are still a few things that need to arrive, but I'll leave those for a future update.

Oxford shoes from ebay.



Big flower black bag from a street market here in my town.



Pink beret from ebay.



Little shoes for Aprilia from ebay.
(The socks & badge were a gift)



NYX make-up from cherryculture.com.
(From L to R: Narcissus, Chic, Ruby & Nude lipsticks;
Red & Natural lip-liners and Natural concealer.
The lip-balm was a gift and it tastes like Bubble Gum!)



Lovely Daisies dress I bought from Carol from Kawaii Factory.
(Also sent me a strawberry phone strap and a badge as a gift! :33)



Red & Black Bowler hats from ebay.



Gifts from my friend Tamar: Patterns and two hats and a dress for Aprilia!!

I'm really happy with everything, especially with the make-up because I wasn't sure how it would arrive, I was afraid it would be broken or melted, hahahaha!! The lipsticks are all so pretty, but I thought the ruby one would be darker, but I guess I was wrong DD:

We went once again to the mall with my son this past Saturday because there was going to be the train flea-market again; so I bought two things I needed but was neglecting buying.
I wore the maxi dress I bought the other day. I'm so happy I bought it, because it's fresh, comfy and so cheerful!

Dress: Blanco
Shoes: Blanco
Backpack: Rip Curl
Jewellery: Blanco, Bijou Brigitte & Levi's

And here is what I bought; a cute bag that didn't need but I thought would match some winter boots I own, l'oreal mascara I been meaning to buy for a while now but never knew which one and decided for the "Extra-Volume Collagene", and I must say I really like how it looks! And A pair of Nike running shoes. I've been delaying this purchase for years now, but yesterday saw this pair I liked a lot. Now I'll have to force myself to go out and run for once!

Bother me tomorrow, today, I'll buy no sorrows.

Yesterday we went to the mall to do some shopping, since my mother sent Luc and I some money for Children Day and Birthday respectively.
There were quite a few things I had laid my eyes on but didn't tried; what a disappointment when I did yesterday!! I ended up buying just a dress of all those thing, and other little thing that didn't need to be tried on.
Another disappointment was that a red bag I really wanted was sold out! D:
Any way, I'm really happy with what I bought!

Skirt: Emily Temple cute.
Cutsew: Emily Temple cute.
Shoes: Sechuna.
Bag: Mother Garden.
Hat: DreamV.
Accessories: Bijou Brigitte.

And here is what I bought.
The dress is from BLANCO and it's floor length, looks fantastic! The t-shirt wasn't actually a buy, it has quite a story, but let's just say it was a gift from my husband! :D
The golden necklaces, bracelets and ring are from both BLANCO and Bijou Brigitte; and the Hello Kitty bracelet and charm are from a new collection from SALVAT editorial.
