I know I am a year late to this post, but I still wanted to document it and have it on record >__> On a happy note, I did purchase the 2021 Lucky Bag, so I will make it a goal to post that the week I receive it!
I actually did start drafting it, but forgot to finish. I am forever a procrastinator lol how did I ever graduate from post-secondary. I guess I need a deadline to be my motivator. ANYWAYS...
This was my first lucky bag from Beautylish. I usually stick to the same few brands for makeup/skincare, and wanted some variety to my collection (of junk.. LOL)
A lucky bag is a mystery bag where the contents are entirely random and sold at a discount. The concept originated from Japan (in Japanese it is called a 福袋 fukubukuro) .
- Sugarpill x Little Twin Stars Collection - $79.00 USD/26.00 USD (Beautylish vs Sugarpill site)
Wow, I was genuinely surprised! Did they give this to me because I'm Asian (and knew I'd like it, haha)? While I don't love the colours thaaat much, I do love the packaging. This isn't something I would personally purchase, but my sister likes this Sanrio character more than I do, so I will probably give this to her. - SONIA G.. Pencil Two Brush - $26.00 USD
SCORE. I WAS HOPING I WOULD GET A SONIA G. OR WAYNE GOSS BRUSH. I believe this is the Pencil Two brush, as it is dense and dome shaped. It feels really nice. I don't own any expensive brushes... I'm so cheap that I just own ELF brushes lol (and some Real Technique brushes that were gifted). Truthfully, I had no issue with them so I never felt the need to splurge. But the longer I use makeup, over time, I wouldn't oppose to spending a little more on a couple of brushes that I use on a regular basis (ie: a foundation brush or a highlight brush). - JEFFREE STAR COSMETICS 5 Year Anniversary Velour Liquid Lipstick Bundle - $75.00 USD
A bit mixed emotion when I saw this. In the beauty community, when you hear/see the name JS... everyone has an opinion, lol. I have never owned any of JS' products, and although I have wondered what the hype is all about, I would never really make it out of my way to decisively purchase something just to satisfy that curiosity. I am more of natural-look makeup kind of gal, so... the white and green colours, obviously, did not make me jump for joy!
I actually don't know what to do with this. - JUNO & CO. Microfiber Rosé Velvet Sponge - $6.00 USD
I have not opened this yet, I still have a bunch of beauty sponges to use first. I'm trying to stop opening new products when the old variation has not been thrown out yet... sigh - BEAUTYLISH PRESENTS Faux Fur Brush Roll - $14.00 USD
I quite like this, I hold my most frequently used eye brushes here. Glad they sent me the black and not the pink (prevent getting dirty!) - GOOD MOLECULES Niacinamide Brightening Toner - $14.00 USD
YAY! I was genuinely excited when I saw this because I love the Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% by the Ordinary. I never knew how much my face was missing niacinamide lol darn you, stubborn blemishes. I haven't tried this yet, since I have like 2-3 other toners open at the moment. - NATASHA DENONA Camel Palette - $48.00 USD
Yay for neutrals!! I like ND palettes, this was a happy loot.
I don't even need to ask if I'd buy one again, because I already did lol hopefully the bag will come to me next week.... as of today, January 211st, it is in Calgary (shipped on January 12th), and I live in Vancouver, BC. Let's see how lucky I'll be this year.
