Haul, BABW and drugstore items

Just a small little haul/review for you


I went to the mall a few days ago and picked up some things from shoppers drug mart, got the new may issue of cosmo, candies, a blistex deep renewal lip balm, gum and most importantly what I went there for, was the crest 3D white tooth paste. The reason behind getting this was because I don't think my teeth are yellow enough to commit to the whiting strips quite yet. 
This tooth paste claims to remove up to 80% of surface stains. I've been using this for a few days and I cant really say ive seen a HUGE difference but my teeth are sort of whiter.
BABW was having a sale 5 for 25$ small candles so i picked up my favorite peach bellini and japanese cherry blossom. And island margarita to try out and I really like it!

Then also at shoppers I bought this Quo smokey eye shadow palette for a very reasonable price. 


Here are the colours it came with, I dont have a swatch so I should probably get on that. 
Overall I like this eye shadows, they're very neutral and I'm not one to wear eye shadows everyday so I got this for special occasions that why I chose the one with the glitter.  


here are the swatches of the 8 shadows. Sorry bad light quality.
As you can see the first 3 a very sheer and they gradually get more pigmented.







ALSO, I picked up a lipstick from the kate collection. And this red is SO pigmented. I honestly can't see myself wearing this until I dye my hair a bit darker and get a tan lol. A huge plus is that it smells SO good. I am definitely picking up a few more shades that I can wear.

Lastly, sephora was having this secret 15% off sale so I took advantage of that and bought this clinique foundation. I got it in the shade 9 neutral. I should have got a shade darker for the summer but this matches my skin tone for now so its fine. This goes on so nicely. I will defiantly be repurchasing this and throwing away my cover girl foundations because this one is so much lighter and the cover girls a bit too cakey. Especially since summer is coming up I want to try out more lighter foundations rather that any heavy kinds.

GOjane:


                                      
What the flats look like, they are so cute!
got them in size 8



What the combat boots look like, They were a bit shiny and smelt like tires lol 
I got these in size 7.5 when my feet are 8.5 and they fit perfect

Bathing suit top fit perfect, but the bottoms were a bit small. I got this in a medium.

I also got leggings but did not take a picture, the leggings fit nice and they're a mix of tights materiel and legging material so it is see through at the bum area. It only come in one size and id estimate the size as small/medium.

Online Shopping! Karmaloop, PLNDR, Tobi and GOjane!

Karmaloop:

When I bought my first order off Karmaloop back in 2011 I was very very Impressed with how fast the shipping process was and how easy the website was to look at and it wasn't too overwhelming. I was especially happy that I got the privilege to track my package.
If you're not familiar with Karmaloop, what it is, is a online shopping store that sells "street wear" basically name branded clothes that are popular and they have super cheap prices on the sale section. They also get new items frequently and follow up with trends. 
Whats even greater is they always gave discount codes! Posted on the website or easily found by just googing it.
I would 100% recommend anyone who finds about 5 or more items they really like to go out and order off this website! Especially those who are sceptical about doing online orders for the first time. Because in all honesty karmaloop has never disappointed me except for how they changed from DHL shipping to canada post shipping in canada. But it really is not a huge deal.
I've ordered off kamaloop 5 times, and will continue to do so :)

PLNDR:

PLNDR is a sister site of karmaloop, on this site they have daily flash sales on items that were on karmaloop but I guess was over stocked and they needed to sell. I've ordered off here I believe once and its basically the same shipping as karmaloop.

Tobi:

I recently did an order on Tobi and I bought a crop top and a skirt. I will do a review on the items I got asap. The shipping I got was the one that costs a bit extra, but that was so I could track it. When I received it they just left the package in my mailbox and didn't charge me anything when it came there. The shipping process was extremely fast, I ordered april 4th and received it april 11th.


GOjane:

When I did my order on Tobi, I also did an order on Gojane. On GOjane I bought combat boots, a bathing suit, cute slip on shoes and basic leggings. I'll show pictures on my next post when I review each item. The shipping I chose was the cheaper one cause its recommended and I was able to track my package with that one. When I received it I had to pick it up from Canada post and pay $15.50 but thats not as much as I usually pay when my karmaloop packages come. And I ordered it on april 4 and picked it up april 12th but they did try to deliver april 11 but I wasn't home.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask and I will either post something about the questions, or directly answer them.
