Hautelook Rock and Republic sale BLUSHES

Oooh ah it's that time again for a Rock and Republic SALE! If you don't know by now these are highly coveted blushes and they only come on sale every once in awhile. So when you see them you've just got to grab it up! They've been on Hautelook and Editor's Closet so far for 40-50% off retail. Right now they are 50% off retail ($40) which brings it down to $20. Sale event ends: Wed, 7/14 at 8:00 AM PT

You know how everyone was always talking about Nars blushes blah blah the big O blush. Well these are the new hot blush if haven't noticed. Smooth and silky, highly pigmented, lush packaging, and will last a very long time.

EDITED - DEAL IS OVER

If you have any questions, please ask in the comments and leave your email so I can respond back to you! I just wanted to leave you with some pics of my purchase from editor's closet. :D It took a really long time from editor's closet due to an error on their part. I've noticed that their website has very much improved so I don't think I would have to wait that long next time. Now Hautelook shipping does take a long time too. R&R will ship the inventory to Hautelook and then they will pack the items and ship it to you.

I love the weighty packaging! It's so luxe!

This is Spank. SPANK! what an awesome name. I got lots of spanking as a child. Maybe even as an older child, lol.

CALL ME. The "better than Orgasm" blush. :D

See how much product this is? 9 grams for pete's sake!

Let me know down below what you have or what you want to buy!
I want to buy atleast ONE more.. probably bedroom?

The original EOS Lipbalm

While here in Vietnam I'm enjoying the original EOS lipbalm. Rambutan! Or better known as Chom Chom in Vietnamese.

Trying on my Chom Chom.

It's very much like lychees but it has a almond shaped seed in the middle instead of a round black seed. It sticks to the seed so you may end up eating the outer layer of the seed (not tasty). The outer layer kinda tastes like wood lol. The fleshy part is really good and very sweet!

Facebook is blocked in Vietnam... haha I didn't know that. I only need to go on there to check on my farm in farmville hehe. But oh well.

It's REALLY hot here but I feel like Texas was hotter when we left. The Texas heat felt like burning heat, but here it's more humid and I'm sweating a lot. Luckily we've got the a/c going in our room and fans in rooms that don't have an a/c. Sometimes the whole street will black out and that means no a/c for anyone.. Hoping that doesn't happen this time.

Yesterday we spent all afternoon and night in the city. I had a really good mango smoothie from Tutti Fruti(under $2) and then we went looking around Ben Thanh Market for crap. haha. There were lots of tourists everywhere. The stuff at Ben Thanh and around is more expensive than other places. Plus it sucks that they don't bargain with you anymore.

Ater that we ate at Pho 24. I'm pretty sure it's a chain restaurant. The pho is supposed to be really good but we thought it was too salty. I ended up with the rice plate and I felt like it was too westernized. The pork had that bbq sauce which I thought was weird. Everything else was good though. It was only $3 for the plate so I can't complain. I ordered a special where you could pick 4 of 7 items plus rice so it was a really good deal!

Order from Asian Food Grocer - Japanese Snacks

A couple months ago when Asian Food Grocer restocked their Japanese Kit Kats I jumped at the chance to order some. I originally posted these pics on my dailybooth, but I want go into more detail into what I purchased. That is the reason why these pics are so web cam looking. The prices at Asian Food Grocer are really fair. They are very comparable to my local Asian markets on all their products. Plus now they even sell circle lenses haha!

My big ass box from Asian Food Grocer! Inside it was divided into two smaller boxes like levels. The shipping is only $5 for orders over $25! Really great deal there. The processing time is a few days and then the shipping time is another few days. So it's not super fast but it's very good!

Having inner stacked boxes is really nice because if you put drinks and candy in the same box the drinks would crush the candy. A nice thought on their part!

What I ordered:

• Kit Kat - White Mocha Latte has a really good coffee taste.
• Kit Kat - Kinako Ohagi I have not tried this yet.. it's out of stock now.
• Kit Kat Mini - Strawberry Chocolate tastes like eating strawberry pocky. it's out of stock now.
• Kit Kat Mini - Chocolate & Sweet Potato is very strange but it does taste like sweet potato. it's out of stock now.
• Coris Whistle Ramune tastes very much like sweetarts so I don't recommend
• Kasugai Assorted Ramune Candy tastes very much like sweetarts so I don't recommend

The box underneath the candy contained these drinks. Shipping at only $5 is an AWESOME deal!

• Mitsuya Cider 16.6 fz
• Hansen's Natural Blueberry Pomegranate Drink 10.5 oz
• Hansen's Natural Dragonfruit Drink 10.5 oz
• Sapporo Melon Cream Soda 16.6 fl oz

So far I've only tried the Dragonfruit and it's eh-eh. Can't wait to eat REAL dragonfruit in Vietnam!!

Since I'm leaving next week I don't want to order again right now. I'll being passing through the Narita Airport in Japan! I want to see what I can find there first! :)

1 year blog anniversary

haha, so apparently yesterday was my one year blog anniversary! opps, missed by one day! Stay tuned because I am working on my first big giveaway! woot woot!

A big thank you to the 146 followers and friends I've met along the way. I think it's awesome how you've joined this blog without some sort of giveaway bribe, lol.

Thank you for all the comments and support these past months. Every little bit makes me smile.

Nikki's Two Giveaways Circle Lens + Brush Guard

Sweet Nikki over at EwwitsNikki is having TWO giveaways that end really really soon! Just thought I'd join real quick, hehe. She has a really awesome blog with makeup and fashion that I read daily. Go check her out! We swapped once, so I know she's really nice! :D

China Glaze 3 for $8, deal steals, mini giveaway

Why yes, I did managed to get 3 China Glaze polishes for $8 plus tax! How?
ULTA has these on sale for Buy 2 get 1 Free. So that's $6.50 each x 2 + 1 Free = $13.
PLUS I had a coupon for $5 off $10 so that brought my total down to $8! Woo hoo!

I think the sale is still going on? You can find the coupon in Elle or Allure magazine. Probably even other mags have the coupon. I have another one and I may go back and get Seche Vite + bastiste. They are 4.99 and 5.99 this week! So after coupon I would pay $6 for both!

I must say that now I know there is a difference between drugstore and non-drugstore polish. I don't fuss over my nails at all so I can't justify buying any polish at full price. But getting them at 65% off and cheaper than maybellienes or loreals is awesome! Plus Light As Air is so creamy and nice and the other two metallics make for great stamping polishes.

These were Buy one Get one Free at CVS a couple weeks ago for these NYC lip shines.

I used a $5 off $10 coupon from All you magazine.. so I paid next to nothing...  I can't even remember but it was a STEAL!

How about I give these balms away?! I will be having my one year blog anniversary in a couple of weeks so why not start early! I hope you don't think it's weird for me to give you stuff I got for nearly free...

*giveaway cancelled* these will be in my future giveaway
