Haul: Skincare & Makeup

Here goes my most recent collective haul...
Here's an overview of all the things I got!  I got new foundations, lip balm, serum, and moisturizing oil.
I've been into mineral foundations recently, so I bought two different ones.  This is the Bare Minerals Original foundation with spf15.  I got it in the color W10 golden fair and I'm in between MAC NC15 & NC20.  I don't know if I like this or not so far...  It kind of sort of makes me look a bit cakey sometimes...  Hmm hmm...  But I've only worn this couple times, so I'll give it some more time.
This one is The Body Shop's Extra Virgin Minerals foundation in the color 102 natural ivory.  I got the lightest shade, but it's not that light.  If you're lighter than I am, then forget about this one.  But oh my goodness!  The formula is awesome!!!  It looks great on the skin and wears for a pretty long time.  :)  The only bad thing about it is the color.  It's a bit too pink for my Asian skin tone boo hoo, but it's still wearable.  And hey, this is on sale on thebodyshop.com for only 5$!!! 

I'm so happy Lush finally is here at my local mall!!!  I've been waiting for soooo long!  I bought Lush's Colour Supplement Multi-Purpose Base Colour in light yellow.  I got this to use it as concealer because I just ran out.  I've used this once and so far so good.
I also ran out of lip balm, so I decided to get Lush's Lip Service.  Few hours after putting this on, my lips felt so much more smooth.  I think I'm going to enjoy this one!  Oh, this thing smells great too.
I've been using Josie Maran argan oil and was running out, so I started looking on Amazon to find an alternative.  Wow, I feel like I was running out of everything at once.  Anyway, I just wanted to try a different brand of argan oil, so I picked out Elsa&Sama moroccan argan oil.  I chose this one only because it was cheap...  It was only about 8$ for 1oz, which is way cheaper than Josie Maran.  It smells a lot different than Josie Maran, but hopefully, it's as good.  I've been hearing so many good things about vitamin c serums, so I decided to give Poppy Austin a try.  It smells citricy, but it smells a little weird...  I don't know what other vitamin c serums smell like, so I can't compare.  I haven't tried these two yet.  They better not break my skin out!
