NYC made me do it: Beauty Haul: PART THREE

Last but not least, all the way from New York, the final bit of beauty things I picked up when I was there. The first store we went to when we arrived had to be Sephora. There was no other way. I couldn't decide which make-up products I wanted right then and there so I started off with skincare. Cause I knew which products I wanted to try as far as skincare goes. The make up came along later.

First Aid Beauty 'Daily Face Cream' and 'Deep Cleanser with red clay'
This skincare brand had come up on my radar several times before and this time I couldn't resist trying some products. I was in need of a new moisturizer cause my skincare routine has been lacking one for quite some time now, so I picked up the 'Daily Face Cream'. It's lightweight and oil-free, perfect for my oily/combo skin. I'm also almost out of my current cleanser (from Kiehls) so I decided to try the FAB one with Red Clay. It's a foaming gel cleanser and the red clay is supposed to me really good for removing excess oil, uncloging pores and purifying the skin. So far I really like both.

Fashion: Topshop Haul

Since A LOT of beauty hauling has been going on here on Eausobeauty, I thought I would switch things up a bit and throw in a little fashion inspiration as well. The rest if my New York City haul will be up next, followed by the things I picked up when I was in Brighton and London.

White Crop Top - High waisted skirt

First up is this gorgeous skirt. This is the first thing my eyes saw when walking in the store and I knew right then and there that I had found my new favorite skirt for summer. It's a pretty pinky red high waisted skirt with a beautiful floral print.To go along with that I also got the white crop top you see in the picture which has tiny little pompoms around the edge. 

Loose short - White top

Next I spotted this beautiful top with flowers both on the front and the back. I would need to wear something underneath this because it's completely see-trough. Lastly from Topshop I found these flow-y shorts on my way to the fitting rooms. I loved every single piece I tried on so I took them all.

I also popped into Accessorize cause I've been on the for a good statement necklace for quite some time now and just couldn't quite find one I really liked. I guess luck was on my side when I was in London cause this beauty was winking at me from the window display and lured me into the store.

Accessorize Statement Necklace

Isn't she a beauty? These kind of necklaces are on the more expensive side - I'd rather spend my money on more makeup - but I just couldn't let this one go. 

More beauty hauling coming soon, so stay tuned. Next up: Sephora Beauty Haul

Lots of love.

Drugstore Beauty Haul - plus Inglot

Next up haulin': Drugstore beauty products. And some Inglot as well. For me there's no way I was going to leave New York without a visit - or four - to their drugstores. We went to Duane Reade, CVS and even Target. Because most of my money went to Sephora and other pricey stores, I managed to do a little damage here as well. Here we go:

Maybelline 'Baby Lips'
I already own some Baby Lips to begin with, but when I saw there is stores I just couldn't leave them. I picked up two from the black line - is that a thing? - and two limited edition shades on a third or even forth trip to the drugstore. The first two are 'OH! ORANGE!' and 'STRIKE A ROSE'. The two limited edition shades I have are 'BLUSH BURST' and 'ROSE RUSH'.

NYC made me do it: Beauty Haul: PART ONE

Starting off the week that will be filled with hauling stuff, we should begin with mascara. Not one. Not two. But six. Now I don't use six different mascaras every time I do my make-up, so why do I need six? Well I didn't actually need six new mascaras - especially when I still have two untouched ones laying around at home, but that's my dirty little secret - but I just couldn't bring myself to leave them.. You see they have a lot more mascaras to choose from in the US are a hell of a lot cheaper than in Belgium as well.. There, totally justified them all right? Me thinks so too. 

MIA: Update time

Hi there. It's me.. Yes I'm still alive! You might wonder where I've been all this time, and I'll tell you. I turned 21 at the end of March, March 25 to be exact, and took some time to celebrate and travel. April 7, my journey began and it took me, and my best friend all the way to my beloved New York City. Perfect city to start off with if you ask me! LA, you're next on my list - I'm coming for you, be warned! Insert awkward New York selfie here: 

New York City - Times Square

Diptyque: Eau Duelle

Diptyque has been on my radar for a few months now. Many beauty bloggers and Youtube beauty gurus have been raving about their candles - they don't come cheap though - and their perfumes. Recently they've also come out with a skincare line if I'm not mistaken. When it comes to perfume I'm a big fan of warm scents, especially when vanilla is involved. A couple of weeks ago I heard Fleur - Fleurdeforce on youtube - talk about the Eau Duelle perfume. The said it was a really warm, spicy scent with notes of vanilla. Of course being the sucker that I am I had to smell the perfume as soon as possible. 

Paris Skincare Haul: City Pharma

Whenever you're in Paris, a visit to one of the many French pharmacies is a must. Even for a girl living in Belgium, right next door to France, the product are a lot cheaper in France than the are here. So of course a visit to a pharmacy was necessary. When in Paris, I recommend going to the City Pharma in Rue du Four 26. This is one of the biggest pharmacies and probably the cheapest as well. This pharmacy is known for their cheap prices by the locals as well as beauty lovers from all around the world. With that being said, you'll have to keep in mind that this pharmacy is crowded pretty much all week long, yes even on week days. It makes it harder to walk through the aisles but the prices make it worth it for me. Because of the large amount of people going in and out of this store some of the things I wanted to get were out of stock. Nevertheless I brought some of my favorite product home with me and some new as well. Here we go.

February Favorites

I love watching my favorite beauty gurus on YouTube. Watching their video's is so addicting. One of my favorite video's to watch over there are 'Favorites of the month ... ' type of video's. These are video's in which they share the products they have been loving during the month that has just gone by. These types of post also made their way into the blogosphere and I though it was time I hopped on the bandwagon.

Without further ado, here are my 'February Favorites'.
