I was checking on furnace filters, when I chanced upon this email from Smashbox. How genius of Smashbox to give their customers a chance to try out the best of their best products. My friend, J was just asking me how Smashbox cosmetics are in terms of their foundation finish and texture. I told her that after years and years of searching for the right concealer, the Smashbox Camera-ready Full coverage Concealer Stick (in #2) is the best concealer to cover my dark undereye circles. Too bad it is not part of this sampler kit. But for all of you who wants to try Smashbox foundation and primer, this is a practical. Think of the bonus o-gloss and other lip glosses that are part of this sampler kit. Enabler mode, on!

Includes: Mini Artificial Light in Glow, Mini Photo Finish Foundation Primer SPF 15 + Dermaxyl, Mini Photo Finish Foundation Primer Light, Mini O-Gloss Intuitive Lip Gloss, Mini Photo Op Under Eye Brightener, Cream Eye Liner Duo (full size!) in Caviar/Midnight Brown, Mini Eye Shadow Trio in Headshot, Mini Baked Fusion Soft Lights in Stardust, 2 Mini Lip Enhancing Glosses in Pout & Afterglow

We’re off to another Road trip tomorrow, Washington, D.C. here we come
. But before that, we need to pick up my mom in Baltimore, I am so excited as this would be my first time in MD. I hope the weather cooperates and there are roadside assistance available on our way. Anyways, before I bid everyone a Sunshiney Weekend, here’s my take on 2 of my favorite Eyeliner brands
.
You see, I used to be not fond of eyeliners, well at least for my personal use and for everyday make-up. I have dark under-eye circles and my eyes are very round and big. Thus, only a few strokes of eyeliners would make my feature look very sharp. I don’t like that. But of course, during special occasions, eyeliners are a must to complete my look. However, when I came here, I noticed that my eyes have become droopy (yes, old age) and during winter I look very pale without one. So I started to try out other eyeliners from gel to cream to pencils. I have been a regular user of Mac Kohl and other cheapo gel eyeliner brands until I discover Urban Decay Glide-On
. My favorite is this Velvet Rope. From this collection, I love the Stash and 1999 shades. Very easy to apply, it literally glides. Once applied, you can smudge it and let it dry. I love how these glider pens enhance my eyes but with a softer and defined look.
Next, would be the Smashbox cream eyeliners. You gotta have a perfect eyeliner brush in order to achieve a clean look. This is what I use during special occasions because the colors are more pigmented than the UD Glide-on pens.

Do you still remember my entry on the Smashbox Let’s do Lunch promo? Here are some of the freebies I got from this ultra-cool promo, will take pics of the rest later.
As I wrote in that entry, Smashbox offers this promo every Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10am-2pm PST. You get a free gift with your order, depending on what’s the featured FREE product/gift of the week. Also, they ship free on any amount in the U.S.
I would love to buy and get my freebie each week but I am currently helping a cousin to put up her small business in the province. I promise to get her barcode scanners. Anyways, I always check the Let’s Do Lunch free gift before I purchase anything and so far these 3 plus the lipgloss duo I got for free too are great freebies. My favorites are the Camera-Ready Full Coverage Concealer and the cream eyeliner palette. The concealer gives me the perfect coverage I need plus it never cakes and the eyeliner palette never smears.
I feel like blogging today. Haven’t you noticed? I’ve been bombarding this blog with entries
. So before I proceed and contact this porcelain tile supplier hubby asked me to do, I am going to share my recent lipgloss haul.

From Left to Right:
1.) Maybelline Watershine 3d essence in Bewitching Pink
2.) Smashbox Duo Lipgloss in Date Night and Ladies Night
3.) MAC Lustreglass in Beaux
4.) MAC Lipglass in Magnetique
5.) MAC Lipglass in Languish
6.) MAC Lipglass in Mouthwatering
7.) MAC Lipglass in Fleur de Light
8.) Clinique Long last glosswear SPF 15 in Air Kiss
9.) Smashbox O-gloss
If there is 1 thing I love to hoard, that would be lipsticks/lipglosses
. I just can’t get enough of them.
Anyways, I could not really make an in-depth review of all these lipglosses because I love them all. But you all know that MAC Lipglass can really create a very luminous effect on the lips. It also reduces all lip lines and it is long-wearing. On the other hand, Smashbox lip glosses are heavy in terms of coverage and I love it because it is very pigmented. The Clinique Long Last glosswear has very light coverage. But the biggest surprise is the Smashbox O-gloss
. I just love it and perfect for Summer. It gives you the natural perfect shade of pink that suits your skintone. It’s magic!

My make-up addict friend, Glo alerted me about this ongoing promo from Smashbox when I purchased my Cameo cream eyeliner which is by the way, on sale now at $16.50.
Every Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10am-2pm PST, you get a free gift with your order, depending on what’s the featured FREE product/gift of the week. When I ordered mine I got the duo lipgloss, which I will make a review in another entry and that duo blush in photo. Also, they ship free on any amount in the U.S.
What fun ayt?
I learned that this is an ongoing promo since last year and I do not know until when this will last. What I normally do, if I do not like the current featured product I wait for another week to make my order. Super super good deal and don’t forget the FREE SHIPPING too.
EDITED: Also, they give out free JUMBO samples
Isn’t this deal very tempting, I don’t mind buying Smashbox cosmetics online weekly but I am currently saving up for one of these tv stands.
