EOS and Drugstore Makeup

My eos order came today. All of the lip balms smell so good. I can't even pick a favourite.

I got the Smooth Spheres in Lemon Drop, Honeysuckle Honeydew, Summer Fruit and Sweet Mint. They all smell amazing. The Lemon Drop reminds me of lemon meringue pie, or lemon bars, but without that little egg-y scent. I think I'm going to keep the Lemon Drop in my purse daily because it has SPF in it, and rotate through the other one's depending on my mood.

I love the feel of these when you put them on. They aren't thick or waxy feeling, the just glide smoothly onto the lips. A lot of lip balms dry out on my within like 30-45 min, I've been wearing this for over an hour, and my lips still feel moisturized.

Also today I picked up Marcelle Wet & Dry Eyeshadow in Naked Truth. This is the perfect skin tone colour for me, and it's a little luminous, but not shimmery, so it gives that 'my skin but better' look for my eyelids.

I also got Rimmel Match Perfection Skin Tone Adapting Concealer in 010 Ivory. I'm not sure about this, it seems a little off for my skin tone, but the 2 other shades were both too dark.

Another item I got was the Wet n Wild Mega Glo Illuminating Powder in 347 Spotlight Peach. It has 4 different strips of colour in it. There's a light peach, a dark rosy peach, a peachy-bronze, and a light shimmery rosy peach. I tried this today, and I like mixing the light peach and the light rosy-peach to give a natural glow to my cheeks.

The final item I bought today was the EcoTools 5 pc brush set. They're travel size brushes and it comes with a mineral powder brush, a concealer brush, eye shading brush, a baby kabuki and a cosmetic bag. I've only ever tried the kabuki brush before, and I loved it. My sister has this set and she uses it all the time, so I decided to get my own.

Now, back to my previous post about the bareMinerals foundation. I took the Medium Beige back to the store, it was too dark and too pink for my skin tone. I got re-matched and my colour is now Golden Fair. This blends perfectly on me, and I love it. My skintone is very tricky to match because I look more medium than light/fair at first glance, but when I try to match foundations, I usually end up in the light end of the spectrum. I will probably need a different colour once summer comes and I start getting some colour to my skin. I hate tanning. Absolutely hate it. The only tan I get is whatever I get while walking outside. I do not like to bake in the sun, and I don't fake tan. Unfortunately, I can get quite a tan just walking to work and around town. Like several shades darker than my untanned skin. Back on topic, I also returned the handy buki brush, because it was shedding on my face, and got a refund for that.

Anyways, that's all for today.
