Custom Cluster Bracelet, Love Pack, MBD Masks--quick post

I was requested to make the Baby Princess bracelet in aqua colors... wowwww I REALLY love how it turned out... way better than the pink :p might have something to do with my favorite color being blue though :]

 
My Beauty Diary mask collection.. be jealous! I'm now obsessed. I tried Natto last night, I didn't think I was going to like it, but surprisingly I did! I will do a review soon... I'm going to use Mixed Berries tonight.


Love package from Gianger!! Thank you so much! I love the polishes :]

Failed MBD Pearl Powder Mask Review & Cluster Bracelet Sale

A couple nights ago, us crazy girls on Twitter, Edna, May, Gianger, Iyah & Lulu decided to all do facial masks at the same time...'cept it didn't go so well ;p
Lulu forgot & Iyah was tired from work & wanted to sleep! May & Iyah were also feeling sick :[

I decided that I wanted to try out the My Beauty Diary Pearl Powder mask....buuut..according to Gianger, it was a "fail mask" ...at least for me!!

I think I'm going to start cutting these masks before putting them on so they fit better! It bothers me how big they are >.<

Description:
- penetrates through interior layer of skin; creates soft, fair look with radiance
- activates and nourishes the skin

- softens, whitens, activates and nourishes skin
- for use of dull & damage skin

My comments on the mask:
- it didn't have a pleasant or bad smell. it kind of reminded me of those anti-bacterial hand/face wash wipes..but less strong
- i had issues putting this one on for some reason lol, i dunno if it was just me or the mask was just.. blah too big! The nose & mouth area especially bothered me.
- it didn't irritate my skin, but just something about it was bugging me. i couldn't stand it anymore so I took it off after about 10-15min.
- after i took it off...about 5 min later my skin started to feel kind of dry.
- next morning, my skin felt fine, so that's good.
- i didn't leave it on long enough to get results probably ;p
- i don't think I will try this mask again. partly, probably because of the smell... i want my masks to smell nice & relax me! :]

Update on the aloe mask - My skin was nice and smooth in the morning :]! I like the aloe one.
Keep an eye out.. I bought a TON of MBD masks! (100 to be exact...HAHAHA...). I'm just waiting for them to arrive :] I'll probably be sticking them into some jewelry orders here & there, and sell ones I don't like/want ;] 

Giveaway soon too for 200 followers (sometime after I receive the masks).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Right now, until June 30th... I will be selling any cluster bracelets for $15 each, instead of the original $20~25 each :] Prices have already been applied to the Paypal buttons.


I will probably make a few more designs since I got lots of beads I wanna use! o:

Don't forget about me throwing in goodies with purchases! =D

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My aunt in the Philippines got me Swarovski Crystals! O_O I was so excited when I got them.. thank you! :] I will e-mail you soon once I get your e-mail from my Dad... haha.

My Beauty Diary Aloe Mask Review

I haven't used masks for awhile so I thought I should probably start up again. The last time I used one was from Clean & Clear in probably Freshman year of High School! 
Since My Beauty Diary masks are pretty popular, I thought I would give it a try.
This is my first time trying a non-cream in a tube type mask so I was like "Whhaaaatt!!" lol.

I decided to use this one because the last time i actually put real aloe on my face when I had bad acne in high school..., i felt weird LOL. (we have an aloe plant).

My Skin:
I have very dry, semi-sensitive skin with acne scars.. so thought maybe this might soothe it a bit.
I used to have uneven skin, as in you lightly rub my hand against my face and it wouldn't be completely smooth....but I've been using Aveeno's daily moisturizers and those have been working wonders :] I've been using them for about 1 1/2-2 years now.

Description:
aloe - Provides skin with adequate moisture content
rose - improves dry & rough skin texture
 amino acid - nourishes and moisturizes skin
hyaluronic acid - highly effective in moisture retention

moisturizes, repairs, revitalizes and nourishes skin

My comments:
-The scent of the aloe mask is very faint, but nice, smells, clean (? lol). It sort of reminded me of cleansing towels that i've gotten.
-there's a lot of the stuff on the mask! o_o
-with the mask on, it didn't irritate my skin, there's no "burning" or "cold" feeling as some masks may feel like.
-my face felt really warm when i took off the mask, haha, still no irritation.

we'll see tomorrow how my skin is! :]
fyi: i've been pimple free for 6 days, yay!

I wish these were less expensive and easier to get by within the U.S.!! And I KNOW I won't be making any trips to anywhere in Asia anytime soon >.<
The least expensive I can get them for is $1.55.. 10 pack for $15.50 ... free shipping.
and another that's $1.42 each.. 30 pack for $43 is that good?i have no idea lol. it just sounds expensive to pay $2 on a single mask! D= or i'm just cheap.. >.< someone let me know if that's a good price lol
But.. i feel an addiction coming soon with these, haha........

Have you heard of the new mask in their line called "Bird's Nest Mask"? lol...

I still have Pearl Powder & Yogurt to review :]
I also bought some other masks by "Beauty Essence" or something... I'm still waiting for those to come in though.
