April Sephora Haul

Hello lovely readers! Thank you for stopping by :) Today I have a post on this month's Sephora haul. If you don't know, 2 weeks ago I turned 22 on April 6th :) Of course, if you are a Beauty Insider or a Very Important Beauty Insider/VIB Rouge... Sephora gives you a birthday present! I received this little box from Make Up For Ever that has their famous Smoky Extravagant Mascara and a Rouge Artist Natural lipstick. Along with that, I also decided to spend my BI points on Buxom Full-On Lip Polish in the colour "Sophia". I have always been curious to try Buxom's lip glosses (especially Buxom Full-On Lip Cream in "White Russian" - I'm eyeing you. I want to get you soon!)


So far, I'm loving the lip polish. It's a beautiful, everyday pink lip gloss. I have yet to try the lipstick and mascara from MUFE but if anyone is interested in a review, let me know! 

As a birthday treat (pun intended ;)) to me from me, after hearing SO many sweet (see what I did there? haha okay, I'll stop) reviews, I decided to buy the Too Faced The Chocolate Bar Eye Palette.



I've been contemplating getting this palette because I've owned so many other eye shadow palettes already (including 3 palettes from Too Faced itself), and I was afraid I'd have similar shades andddd I didn't really NEED another eye shadow palette. However, after careful consideration and having been visiting the Sephora store and checking the palette out 5.different.times ... I decided that I must have really wanted it so as you can guess, I bit the bullet and bought it on the 6th visit to Sephora (LOL). Although some of the colors on this palette are quite close to some eye shadows in other palette, there are many beautiful colors that I've never owned (like Candied Violet, Strawberry Bon Bon, .. the pinks and the purples. Can't say the same for the browns, champagne, and gold though! lol). I loveee how versatile this palette it. I can create any look I want: a smokey eye for a dramatic night (or day) look, soft and sweet for a natural look, the basic "no makeup" makeup look, and so many more. And the best part? It smells just.like.real.chocolate. Need I say more? Go to Sephora and give it a whiff! You won't look crazy I promise :)



If you want a swatch of this beautiful palette, feel free to let me know and I'll definitely take your request :) Thank you so much for reading! Until next time,

I don't know about you, but I'm feeling 22 ...

Hi beauties!

It's April 6, 2014 - which means it's my 22nd birthday today!

All I want for my birthday .. is a ....... just kidding, my boyfriend bought me this hat as a joke on HIS birthday LOL so this hat has been identified as an official 'birthday hat' so guess who'll be wearing this hat today ....... that's right. HIS turn. hahaha! payback is something, isn't it ;)

I just want to write this post to say thank you to everyone who has made me who I am at 22 today. Everyone I've met and haven't met have impact me in a way that made me who I am today. I am so excited for what this year has to bring me in my life! I can't wait to experience all the amazing things 22 has to offer!

Thank you for stopping by and taking time to read my blog. I've been so busy wrapping up school work for this year and I promise once I'm free (in just over 10 days) I'll be blogging more frequently! If you've been here before, thank you for coming back to visit me :) If you haven't, welcome to my blog! My name is Film and I am a 22 (today!) years old girl from Thailand who's been in Canada since 2008. Welcome to my space - where I share wonderful things I find and a glimpse into my life :)


Anyway, it is currently 1.09 AM and I've already been flooded with 'happy birthday' wishes from people back home (Thailand's clock is faster so it's already midday there). I am so overwhelmed with happiness but I don't really feel like it's my birthday yet because I feel like it's still Saturday night - even though it's early, early, early Sunday morning. LOL. Okay, I'm going to bed so I can wake up and thennnn, I'll finally fully, truly experience my birthday! Thank you once again :)

Until next time,
from Film with love xx
