Hello Beauties I hope you are all well :)
I have been sick most of this week but getting there now thank goodness there is nothing worse than been sick when you are a full time mum and blogger :) You feel so useless and worried about what you are not getting done rather than getting better. Anyways today is a different kind of blog post as you can tell by the title ;)
Rikke from Lovevens Makeup Rambles and I have become good friends through facebook and through each other reading our blogs and we got chatting before Christmas about doing a Swap. I was delighted to take part as its not that often you get that oppurtunity and to be honest I was curious about product from Denmark. We agreed to take our time building up a collection for our swaps and shared information about our likes and dislikes. We also agreed to a value excluding postage to spend on products :) So In february we were ready to send our boxes of goodies to each other and to be honest our packages didnt even take that long to get to our destinations :)
Rikke is such a sweet girl and to be honest I had 100% trust in her. I wasnt even worried that she would send me items I wouldnt use as she seemed to listen to everything I liked and disliked.
I recieved my box first but decided I would wait until she got hers as I was a couple of days behind posting her box to her.
The day she got hers was the day I opened mine :)
Well I can tell you now she was one very very happy little lady with what I sent her so much so she even blogged the day she got them lol :)
If you want to see what I got her check out her blog post here :)
So Enough with the rambling and let me show you what I got :)
When I first opened the box I was well impress with the way everything was put together all wrapped in bubble wrapping individually with a little note on each goody on top of all the goodies was some lovely different food stuff yummy :) hehehehe
Love me some new sweets ;)
Along with that was a lovely little letter from Rikke :) underneath the sweets I spotted some lovely little samples to try out Thanks Rikke :)
Next up was my favourite part :) Opening up all the goodies she sent me :) First up was a personal favourite of Rikkes :) An L.A Colors eyeshadow palette which I am looking very forward to trying out :)
Next she got me something she just got herself and suggested we try it out together which is very exciting :)
Another L.A Colors Eyeshadow Palettes :)
She got me a new foundation I have not tried yet by Gosh and I am pretty sure the shade is the right shade too :) I am really looking forward to trying this out :)
I have seen a blog post by Loevens Makeup Rambles about this next product and I am so glad she added one to my box as I have bee curious to try it out :) Its the L.A Glazed Lip Paint :)
Next product is actually a product I haven't tried and order a few shades of it recently I am super excited that I now have another shade to my little collection :) plus its a favourite of Rikke's so I'm even more excited to try them out now :)
Next up is a new mascara for me :) This time by Gosh in which I havent tried :)
When I seen this next product I screeched out loud. i have always wanted to try something if anything from Sephora. Sephora is not available here but I have seen so many people rave about Sephora :) She sent me a holy grail of hers from Sephora :) I really cant wait to try this out :)
Rikke sent me another favourite of hers and when I opened it my eyes opened wide wow the shades look stunning Another Gosh product :) :) :)
Next up is a recent favourite of Rikke's and I know straight away where she heard about this product :) ;) Correct me if I am wrong Rikke. Dyna girl you have us both hypnotised by your Videos Girl!!!! This is One of Dyna's Favourite Concealers and I have recently ordered this myself :) Rikke sent me a shade I didn't order so I am super excited to try this out for the first time :)
Another Sephora Product and time time a scent :) Its one of Rikkes Favourite scents :) I personally am very fussy when it comes to perfumes but this is actually lovely its mild yet a scent that will linger all day :)
Oh my goodness Rikke was surely trying to tease me on this next one by writing "Could this be from Sephora?" lol :) I really couldnt open the package fast enough :) A New Lippy
Next up is such a sweet thing for Rikke to do She knew that this month is my birthday and she added a little Birthday package along with everything :) Of course my Birthday is not until the end of the month and I just wasnt waiting to see what it was :) I liked the look of this palette so much i just had to try it out today :)
Last but not least :)
Is another lippy this time by Gosh :)
Rikke also sent me a couple of products that did not work out for her. She asked me before she sent them to me if I was interested in trying them and of course I said yes. Such a sweet and loving person Rikke is and I am so glad I got this chance to do a swap with her. I found it so much fun. Thank you Rikke I love everything and I am going to have so much fun playing around with my new makeup products :)
If you all get a chance pop over to Rikkes blog as she does some really great reviews :) :)
Until Next time and keep an eye out for some new product reviews :) If you have seen anything here you would like me to review asap let me know :)
Lots of Love Luck and Laughter
