Montagne Jeunesse Clay Spas

So I've already written about this in the Influenster Master Post but they like it better if I whore out my blog a little more and write a dedicated blog post. That's fine because I can take you through it step by step, I guess.

I received a face mask with Influenster in Arctic Cloudberry and Red Grape. Apparently arctic cloudberry is a thing...

Go figure. (Source)
Anyway, the first step is to cleanse your face (for which I used this Estee Lauder cleansing foam for normal/combination skin.

And then I got the package open with wet hands, which I mentioned before was very easy.

This face is the face of someone who did not know what was actually going to be in the package. I have never used a mask before.


And then I was terrifying. The mask stayed on pretty easily, except under my chin and above my lips (which is the most mobile part of my face I think).


I sat on my computer for 15 minutes and then pulled off the mask.


To rinse it, I just got in the shower.

My face felt really clean and smooth right after, and it lasted a couple hours after. The smell of arctic cloudberry and red grape was still present, and actually remained quite strongly hours after the fact. This is a good thing for some people but as I mentioned before, I spend a lot of time in close proximity with people who have sensitive noses.

So there you have it. A dedicated Montagne Jeunesse post. Despite the blog-whoring, I guarantee that this is my honest review.

Nail wheels!!

So if you follow my Twitter, you'll know that I received my nail wheels from eBay yesterday!

Allllll my pretttiiiieesssssss~
So clearly I organized by colour, and I definitely do not have a collection like some people I follow (Here's lookin' at you Trace) but it made me really happy to swatch it all anyway =D

Red/Pink
So apparently my lighting was bad because those first three look way more similar in the photograph than they really are.
Orange!
 I love orange!
Yellow!
 Soooo many yelloooows. Tivoli looks really brownish, but it's pretty burnished gold. Del Sol changes colour to pink in the sun and I will have Julep Daisy to add to this wheel sometime soon! =D
Greeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen
 KleanColor Bikini Green and WarPaint Bad Apple look really similar, but the finish on the WarPaint is not shiny and it glows under blacklight. However, I could definitely live without KCBG if anybody wants to give it a good home. Maybe if you'd follow me I'd be motivated to do a giveaway. I'm certainly making enough pageviews a day.
Bluuue
 I love blue. I think it's my favourite colour now thanks to Branden's pretty eyes. Anyway, I can't believe how Blue Me Away makes Let's Get Lost look sad. Can't waaaait to wear it >_<

Purple
 I also love purple. With both green and purple, I didn't have to look at the name on the back of the wheel to know what the colour/brand was. Hah.

Brown/Grey
Chiiinnaaaa Glaaaaaaaze (Dress Me Up). And Harvest Moon. Can't wait!

Black
Revlon has tiny blue microglitter you can't see, and usually Revlon requires a topcoat and really shines after getting it. It was also interesting to see that Joe Twilight and KC Chunky HB are different. I just thought Joe was a crap knockoff, but it's a flakey with more green, if not a strong reflective attribute.

So, does anything look interesting? Any close-up requests?
