Another Beauty Swap!

I received the second of my Beauty Swap Boxes today! It was from Jennifer Goldie who lives in Scotland. She loaded it up with makeup, much to my delight! She also included some delicious smelling body washes and a neat hair wrap. I am seriously dying to get home from work and go play with this stuff! I might even have to shower twice just so I can try out both washes!

Have any of you done a beauty swap? What was your experience?

First Beauty Swap Box Received!

I just received my first swap box from the series that I have going on. This one came from Marion in France and WOW! She is a fantastic shopper!

The first thing I noticed was how amazing the box smelled. It was loaded with goodies from L'Occitane which excited me because I have always wanted to try their products, but they're quite challenging for me to find where I live. She also included some Huile et Baume skincare, some Caudalie and some Kiko makeup - a lipliner in a gorgeous berry colour, a lip gloss and a shimmery pink colour which is going to be my new favourite highlight, I can just tell!

Unfortunately, the box arrived damaged and the stuffing was falling out, so I didn't get a picture, but it was stuffed with colourful packing peanuts, feathers and ribbons as well as some delicious little candies which my husband promptly absconded!

I will take some pictures tonight once I find my camera and load some up as soon as I can.

Hello again! I'm posting this from work. It's such a beautiful day that I decided to take some pictures from my Android phone and put them up on Facebook. I added this one here for you all to see. This is where I get to spend my Saturdays... too bad I can't have a nice chilled class of Riesling to go along with it all, huh?

First Beauty Swap Sent!!

Well, I did it! I got my first swap completed and sent in the mail. And of course in my excitement to get it all sent off, I forgot to take pictures to post on here so I'll try to do that for the next one I send off. I'm super excited about this whole idea. Every time I am out, I am constantly on the prowl for more swap items. I scour the sales for products that one can usually only get in North America, and when I was at Winners, I found a HUGE amount of products! I just wish I'd had the funds to purchase them all!
