Random reviews, I suppose
May. 13th, 2019 06:25 amMy face hurts. It's the fucking weather and it's not pleasant. I'm going to need the meds to kick in ASAP because I am miserable and I have things to do today, dammit. Not fun things mind you, but things that need to be done anyway.
So while I enjoyed the thunderstorm and rain storm yesterday, I do not appreciate the fact that when I rolled out of bed and came downstairs, I found two Palmetto bugs just hanging out. No, you gross bastards, go away. Or die. They chose die, btw. Still not sure if the cat flipped them or if they flipped themselves, but the cat is accepting credit.
In other news, I decided not to skip my Ipsy for May because I really wanted two of the options floating around out there. Well, I really wanted one and would've been quite happy with the second. I should mention I'm pretty terrible at using my box stuff right away. Terrible. Even the stuff I mean to use ASAP I never do.
That was not the case with this box. If you clicked the link above and wondered what I got, fear not. I got the Tone Up Primer thing, the Glamglow bubble masks, the eye palette, the lip liner duo, and the Butter Me Orange Creamsicle body butter.
I did not actually get the liner duo as they weren't in my box, so I had to email Ipsy about that. But the body butter smells exactly like an orange dreamsicle and it is amazing and I love it and yes, I will be swapping out the lotion I'm taking to work for this one and not just because I think the other is breaking me out. This smells AMAZING. The other amazing thing is that apparently not a lot of people got this? So I really took a chance on getting a box I'm otherwise meh about to get one item I'm in looooooooove with. But the masks were my second want and I've used one already and it was fun. I like the bubble masks and this one works pretty well as one to use before you shower and unlike others, you don't necessarily wind up with bubbles up your nose. Huzzah! Haven't used the other stuff yet but I'm happy.
eta: So happy that I bought the bodycare trio they had in their shop and got an extra $5 off which was basically the universe saying that it was meant to be. So I'll use that and give Mums the blueberry BBW stuff. Everyone wins!
The same day my Ipsy box showed up, my AG order arrived. Friday, I believe. I haven't had time to try any of the AG stuff on a doll yet (maybe today if my sinuses stop trying to actively murder me?) but if you want first impressions, settle on in.
( Opinions I have. )
Overall, I'm pretty happy with my order. I'm happy with what I got and really impressed with how quickly it arrived (less than a week for AG is insane.) and I only wish that there was more I was interested in because my AG love apparently has rekindled after being very meh so far this year. And now the site is down, because of course it is. o_O
I believe my next order of business is to work on the dishes. But maybe I'll take my pizza box out first. Wish me luck in not dying due to the pollen.
