Yay! My tokidoki lipgloss came in the mail today!
I'm so glad that I bought it :)
Its a nice bright pink that looks good on my skin
Nice and shiney, some sparkles
Not too sheer, but my naturally pigmented lips show through a little
Thats good though, because it dims down the brightness of the gloss color
I'm really happy with this purchase
We'll have to see how it works out when wearing it for a whole day

Tokidoki for Smashbox lipgloss in drammatica

So, while I was at the store, I saw a nice two-pack of the new fruit spritzers from Covergirl.
I picked out the Papaya/Guava Splash set, mainly because the other shades seemed either too bright or too brown.
The papaya is an orangey-pink color while the guava is a light pink.
Sadly, these colors are MUCH brighter in the tubes.
When I put both on, I could barely see any type of color tint :(
There were very shiney and sparkley though!
The papaya doesn't have a specific fruit scent, more of a fruit punch.
The guava had a watermelon-like scent.
I definitely prefer the papaya over the guava, based solely on the smell.
I would really like to try some of the other glosses, especially the strawberry.
Now that I know there is barely any tint in the gloss, I'm more confident that the strawberry wouldn't be too bright for me and it would be a great scent!
I love strawberries!

I also picked up a rimmel eyeshadow single in the shade Iris, along with a bargain brand single in a soft pink.
I must say... the bargain brand color was a little more intense (brighter/stands out) than the rimmel color!
I had a rimmel quad already and the colors in it were a little sheer, but i was hoping since I got a bright purple color, it would show up a little brighter on the skin.
But it didn't... but thats actually ok.
I think it will still look nice on my skin, so I don't regret the purchase.

Happy cosmetic shopping!

I did it.
I splurged and bought the tokidoki lipgloss i've wanted forever.
In total, it cost me $16.65...for one tube!!!
Thats actually a good buy, considering it costs $18 retail.
I bought it off ebay, so It should be here in a few days.
Plus, i'm still waiting for my memoirs of a geisha face palette.
Now i'm officially done!
No more shopping!!!!!
I have to save for before college! Save! Save! Save!!!!
I still can't believe I spent that much on lipgloss... bad bev, bad!
