Sephora, Bath & Body Works Haul and Lipgloss Review

On Friday, I went to Yorkdale and decided to look around due to their "Continued" Boxing Day (or Week 0.o) deals that were going on.

We went to Sephora because Noah needed to buy a gift for one of his friends. I merely was looking around and WASN'T going to buy anything (doesnt that always happen when you go shopping). Than I noticed this lipgloss and the color just GOT ME and I ended up buying it.

This is bareMinerals Marvelous Moxie Lip Gloss. The Color is called "Hypnotic". When you see this in the store, your like "O.M.G this is going to look amazing on my lips," especially paired with lipstick.

When applied on the hand it gives off a nice orange like tone but when you alter it under the light, it shifts between green-purple type color which really grabs you. When you open the package you get the same triple tone color which gets you so pumped to apply it and work that lip gloss to wherever your going. So whats my HONEST review...?

When I tried on my basic purple lipstick (I didn't want to use my MAC Heroine lipstick) and applied it on top, I didn't really see much of a difference. Truthfully it looks like a PLAIN CLEAR lipgloss. So I tried applying little more on and you can "slightly" see the difference in the light but the whole color alternating thing....Nah that doesn't work. Compared to what your expecting from when you look at its appearance.

Now is it a BAD lip gloss overall? 

No, its a DECENT lipgloss. It does make your lips look very nice and glossy. You can use it either by itself or with a nice lipstick or lip pencil. Maybe I need to try this when I go OUTSIDE on a nice sunny day or during summer which is when Im going to witness some better results.

When you apply it on you hand! Was so excited T_T
Basically, if your buying this lip gloss for the whole color changing thing...Nah...dont do it! There are much better lip gloss brands out there. I would honestly return it but since I used it, Ill be nice and keep it though my $21 bucks is gone.

After Sephora, I headed over to B&BW since I wanted some lotion to moisturize my legs (CAUSE THEY ARE DRYYYY and of course summer coming and I want them to be dress/short ready). So They were doing some more sales. It was 50% of the lotions and buy 3 for $12 on the body wash.  FYI the original price for the lotions were $13 bucks (even on boxing day) so I'm happy I was able to get it now for 50% than on boxing day with NO sale -_-
Country Chic- nice Tropical smell (reminds me of summer <3)
3 different types but didn't like the Coconut one so purchased these 2/extra lemon body wash
Twilight Woods is my current favorite!! Haven't tried Velvet but excited too
Finally went to Costco for some food shopping and picked this up! Can you believe its $8.99!!! One in shoppers drug mart was $5.99 and I got 4 for 8.99!!! I SMELL Savings <3~~~
Blueberry Acai, Strawberry Sorbet, Summer Fruit & Sweet Mint
Currently tried the Blueberry Acai. I understand why its so popular now! Really does wonders on your lips, especially mine (due to my normal usage of lipstick).

That's all I bought. Spent about $55 bucks for my little haul which was a good deal with all the sales. Won't be shopping for awhile, gotta start saving up for the travels and mommy presents for when she returns :P

Till Next Time....
