Shopping For Birthday Gift

Not my birthday... :P I wish! :P
We went to Sephora and bought some Hello Kitty stuff.
We got the Hello Kitty Hand Held Mirror Hand Held Mirror <--- This is super cute!
and the Hello Kitty Memoirs Of A Kitty Cosmetic Bag.
Hahahha! I love that name. :p So cute. I was a bit disappointed with the way the makeup bag looked though -__- On the website, the bag looks all cute but in real life some of the "branches" are sloppily painted/printed on there.. some of the branches aren't even painted on fully so I thought it was blood or dirt at first glance since it was brown too. -__- Each bag has unique "branch" prints on them so I tried to choose the one that looked the best though. Maybe I can try to make it look better by adding a few more gifts inside. :P It definitely needs it!

I hope she still likes these though. :) Wish she would have wanted the Hello Kitty Say Hello Palette - Memoirs Of A Kitty Say Hello Eyeshadow and Blush PaletteMemoirs Of A Kitty Palette because it looks so pretty. I really like the jade bow.

That's all we got so far for birthday-gift-shopping! :3

For myself, I got a graphic tee from Wetseal. It was only 8 bucks. :3

100% Pure Fruit Pigmented Ultra Lengthening Mascara

Its time to toss out one of my mascaras I've been using every day. I got this from Farmgirl when she had hosted one of her very generous giveaways. Thank you so much!!!
I just thought I might want to show you guys before I threw it away. :3
Ultra Lengthening 100% Natural Mascara by 100% Pure Cosmetics

Left: With Mascara                            Right: Bare natural lashes


Pros
-The website says that it is 100% natural and 100% vegetarian so I thought that was pretty awesome.
The less chemicals and unnatural stuff we put on our body, the better right? :p
-It does lengthen, separate, thicken, and gloss my lashes like it claims to do.
(I know it looks a bit clumpy in the picture but that's because its about time I chucked it out! :P)
-The formula is gentle and suitable for people who wear contacts. I like how my eyes don't tear up whenever I accidentally get this stuff in my eyes. 
-I like the scent :3
-I love the packaging! so pretty :3

Cons
-It is not water and smudge resistant.
In fact it smudges quite easily especially when I tear up.

Even though there are way more pros than cons, I prefer mascaras that are waterproof and smudge-proof because my eyes do water a lot for some reason and I don't want to have to worry about looking like a panda every time I yawn or something.
I do like the fact that it has a lot of natural ingredients in it so I just might purchase this to use again.
Maybe next time, I can try this with a mascara sealer. :3
