SASA Haul

Awhile back I purchased a few items from SASA.com in hopes of entering the Sasa Haul Contest... Unfortunately I didn't have the time to film a video and enter the contest but I still wanted to share what I had purchased.






Choosing a BB cream is such a hard and personal choice since there are so many different ones choose from.  I knew I wanted to try a Skin79 BB Cream just wasn't sure which one to try.  I ended up choosing this BB Cream since not only was it one of the newer Skin 79 products to come out but also because it recommended for preventing wrinkles and improving fine lines.  I'm 24 now and thought this might be good time to start thinking "pro" anti-wrinkle.  As you can see a lot goes a long ways. It has a light [rose?] scent and overall is really nice. It doesn't make me look pasty and blends rather well. Did wish it had a bit more coverage though.

 

I haven't actually used this one yet but will once it gets closer to the holidays to add a bit of glamour to my normal makeup.


I can't tell you how many times I have seen this on different blogs so I wanted to try it out for myself.  It worked really well on my hair! I liked it for obvious reasons (no crease in my bangs when doing my makeup), but I did try it on my mom and it didn't work well for her.  She has super thick hair and it just puffed up her hair. lol.

Lastly K-Palette Tattoo Eyeliner in Black


I was super disappointed with this.  I had heard such stellar reviews about how long lasting this eyeliner is and for some people it might be, however for me it was lackluster at best.  My current eyeliner of choice is MAC Liquidlast, which is still the best, longest lasting eyeliner I have ever tried.  The K-Palette was okay and gave a great dark black color however by the end of the day it was wearing away. =[ Again this might just be me but it isn't something I will be ordering again.


This toner turned out to be such a pleasant surprise.  This toner had the nicest rose water scent and left my skin feeling super soft and fresh. LOVE IT!

Overall I was happy with my purchases and will be using them frequently.  Ordering from the site was super easy and getting a free sample was a nice extra.  It took about a week for my order to arrive and everything was in great condition and nothing was damaged or gross. So I will most certainly be ordering from Sasa again.

  1. Great haul Marie! I just bought a sample tube of the Skin79 Gold bb, so I hope it works well for me too. I also love MAC's liquidlast, but still haven't found a cheaper dupe for it yet. That's too bad that the Tattoo liner didn't live up to the hype it's received :/
