Swapping For The First Time...

Posted by Rica at 8:54 AM


Since I'm not really fond of my newly purchased NARS Orgasm Powder Blush, I'm willing to swap it over www.MakeUpAlley.com . A friendly member sent me a swap request last night for my NARS Orgasm Blush in exchange to her Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer. Since I'm willing to let it go and that Tinted Moisturizer is in my wishlist as well, I'm giving it a try. :)

I was really intrigued at first with the NARS Orgasm Powder Blush. It was in demand everywhere.. From magazines, online forums, online blogs, etc. That's why I purchased this blush. At first I thought that the shimmery effect of the NARS blushes are "cute" but I was wrong... it just doesn't work for me. The shimmers just clogs on one area of my face, making my pores visible and making me look like I don't know how to put on make-up evenly.

I was really disappointed. Not to mention it's HKD 240 at Sephora just for a small piece of blush with a not-so-good looking packaging. The packaging is also one thing I dislike from it. The rubber-like material NARS used for it making makes the compact look old and dirty. I'm just glad that I found my NARS blush a new home, and will be shipping out anytime soon!

The next package is a 4-lot Japanese Brand make-ups in exchange to a Chanel Liquid Foundation and a YSL Lipstick. I am willing to let go my 3 Lavshuca Jewel Lipsticks and Majolica Majorca Jewellling Pencil in exchange for that. Because I can always buy a replacement to those anytime I wanted. :) I'm hoping that these swaps would turn out successful because this is my first time to try!
