Saturday haul: ASOS, Prada & Clarins

So....I've been thinking of it. I've been wanting it. I thought of asking it for Christmas. But I just could wait, so I bought it: Prada's new perfume Prada Candy!!!! Fell in love with it when I first sniffed it at Sephora about a month ago. It's sweet and stays on for a looooong time. 

Another product I've been wanting to get but didn't cos some beauty stores didn't have it was Clarins new Eye Contour Gel. I had a sample of it and used it religiously every morning and absolutely loved it. I love the tube packing cos it's so much easier to apply. And I love the gel texture cos it's so quick to absorbe. Despite the fact that having just a sample I was able to use it only for a few days I did notice less darkness under my eyes to the point that sometimes I forgot to apply concealer! Glad I was finally able to find the full size.

Last week I also did some intense online shopping. I placed my first order on ASOS and bought a couple of jeans. A lighter wash and a darker wash. Both torn,...cos I'm currently obsessed with torn jeans!!! I will definitely repurchase from the ASOS website cos shipping was fast and I LOVE the stuff they have!

Dopo mille ripensamenti sabato scorso mi son detta basta, lo voglio! E così ho comprato il nuovo profumo Prada, Prada Candy!!!! Quanto mi piace!!! E' dolce e dura a lungo e me ne sono innamorata dalla prima volta che l'ho odorata a Sephora circa un mesetto fa. Un altro prodotto che ho voluto comprare recentemente ma che non ero mai riuscita a trovare è il Gel Contorno Occhi della Clarins. Mi avevano dato un campioncino qualche tempo fa e mi è piaciuto subito:  il formato a tubicino che lo rende facile da usare e la texture in gel che si assorbe velocemente. Finalmente sabato sono riuscita a trovare il full size. 

  La settimana scorsa ho anche fatto un pò di shopping online: ho fatto il mio primo ordine su ASOS. Ho comprato due jeans e mi piacciono un sacco!!!

Saturday haul #28

Last Saturday was one of those days where you think nothing great is going to happen and instead it turns out to be a pretty exciting day. Me and my sis went to the mall cos we were feeling like McDonald’s for lunch. Since the cue at the counters were never ending I thought of going to Sephora…you know…just to kill time!!! And I had the most fantastic surprise: BENEFIT!!!!!!!!!!! After years of praying for some new brands to come on my side of the world, finally on Saturday it happened. Needless to say I grabbed everything and more. I bought all the stuff I’ve been seeing in youtube videos recently, first and foremost the They’re Real Mascara….hurray!!!!!!!! After spending the impossible at Sephora we went for lunch (the cue was still long!) and after that we went to the hair salon in the mall. We had no appointment but were lucky and managed to get our hair done. I decided to go for a cut…..and boy did the hairdresser cut!!!! But honestly I didn’t mind cos my ends were in bad shape, split ends and all, so a good cut was much needed. Anyway here are some pics of the day:

Ciao ragazze! Sabato sono andata a Sephora ed ho avuto una fantastica sorpresa: BENEFIT!!!!!!!!!!!! Ebbene sì la Benefit è finalmente arrivata alle mie parti. Potete immaginare il mio entusiasmo quando ho visto il nuovo stand,…ero così elettrizzata che non sapevo da dove iniziare :) La prima cosa che ho preso è stato il mascara They’re Real che sta tanto spopolando tra le guru su youtube. Poi ….poi il resto lo vedete dalla foto! Dopo aver speso l’impossibile a Sephora mi sono sperata anche un bel taglio e piega dal parrucchiere. Insomma un sabato fruttuoso direi!!!!!!!!!!!!!
