The Year in Review: 2012
Gifts I got for Christmas:
A collection of holiday-themed Lush soap bars and a makeup palette!
Lush handmade soap bars |
I'm already using one of the Lush bars and will post a review once the first soap is used up.
I haven't touched this mixed palette yet but I am excited to try it out! It's a basic eye-cheek-lip trio and I love that it has brushes and a mirror with it! I'll probably pack this along my next trip as I forgot to pack it last December. Funny, a few days into blogging, I was thinking how I'd love to get makeup palettes this Christmas, yey!
Thanks to my sister and aku's family!
What I'm most excited about:
- Finishing up the crumbs of my MAC StudioFix so I can start using Chanel Vitalumiere!
- Getting the rest of my subscription boxes!
- Cleaning my brushes, yay! -not. The only good thing about this is that I can turn it into a blog post.
The biggest trend of 2012:
Subscription boxes!
It's also the main reason I started blogging. I do hope the presence of competitors encourages the four brands (GlamourBox, SaladBox, BDJ Box and Sample Room) to make their offers more attractive.
- Maintain a daily skin care schedule. It gets tiring when I keep adding in products, then I just want to stop everything. So far, so good. I cannot wait to be done with my Lipocils review.
- Come up with a good blogging schedule! I really want to go daily but I don't think it's feasible for the long term. I've been skipping a few days here and there :-S Right now, my idea is to settle on a weekdays-only schedule.
- Review everything! It's hard when I have too many skin care products that have the same function. And I suck at photography so I haven't done makeup reviews either. My resolution is to just go with the flow and improve as I go along :P
Internally debating on my next topic: Kate Somerville exfoliant review or Biore pore strips review.
