Birthday Presents!

The show and tell of the presents I received.

First up from my lovely sisters. I got asked what I wanted so I knew what I was getting!

'Meadow Ring' from etsy by ShereDesign.

Issahra argan oil- it's 100% argan oil and nothing else. I'm going to use it for my hair but I'll try it on my face too. A friend gave me argan hair oil similar to Moroccan Oil for Christmas except it had other ingredients. Argan oil was at the very bottom of the list!

Mecca Cosmetica voucher- this one I didn't ask for so it came as a surprise. I used it to buy Ellis Faas creamy eyes shadow.


My sister didn't know which colour I wanted so got me a voucher instead. The colour I chose was E108- a shimmery beige.

Now from my friends:
Perfume!

Mr Cupido

Mr Cupido actually came with the passport cover, notebooks and Britney Spears perfume below.



Scott Barnes facial masks and Mirenesse concealer. Also from the same friend, the lipglosses and peanut butter M&Ms below.


My fave M&Ms flavour! So addictive!! Mmmm... salty and sweet at the same time. Apparently there are also pretzel M&Ms. Has anyone tried them?

London and Europe books!
Can't believe I've got 2.5 months before I leave. Eeek!

This is probably the best present pack I've received so far. From my sisters, they were things I would've bought for myself anyways. Nice to have someone buy it for me :-P As for my friends, they actually got stuff I would use. Not to be whiney but sometimes I get useless things. Mr Cupido might be useless but he's cute! So he passes. Heehee.

The only things I didn't particularly like were the 2 perfumes. Previously, I would've been stoked to get the Britney Fantasy. Now I'm trying to cut down my perfume stash... so I don't need more. There could be the possibility of regifting those :-)

It's funny since slowly paring down my stuff, I haven't had the need for presents. In fact, it was hard letting my sisters know what to get me. Usually I have a long list. In fact, the best part was having dinner with my friends!
