Total make-up bonanza!

It can be sad when your favorite cosmetics brands bite the dust but then – there is always ebay. Of course that cannot always be the best place to purchase cosmetics. I am sure many people have experienced that same – “Oh crap, this is some old old old stock here.” when buying cosmetics from ebay sellers. For the most part that has put me off purchasing cosmetics on ebay unless they are absolutely brand new products (like the Hello Kitty MAC line) because I had some terrible experiences with spoiled make-up.

I am happy to report that I have found a great seller on ebay who carries many of the kawaii brands that I adore. The stock is limited but the quality is superb. Everything is boxed and sealed and brand new. Oh and the prices are right on too! If you post in the comments I will email you the sellers name but I don’t want to put it out here for just anyone since I intend on purchasing at least one of all the SUGAR cosmetics!

Before I show off my haul I have to tell you why I love SUGAR so much. It’s the lipgloss – it has the most wonderful flavor – ever! They call it sugar flavored but that really doesn’t explain it. It is sweet, like butter-cream frosting on a cupcake, but also like sugar on a jelly donut, or the crusty sweet sugar on top of a blueberry muffin or the sprinkled on top sugar of a still warm sugar cookie. I mean this stuff is super tasty and since all lip gloss (and lipstick) should be flavored since it goes on your lips (duh), this is one of the best, if not the best. Which of course is sad because they aren’t making it anymore. Bummer.

Here is my haul:

Wonderful double-sided palette with candy bright colors, gloss, lip creams, blush and bronzer. All you need is a mini-mascara and you are good to go. This is perfect for travel. It is super kawaii, sturdy and pink. I got this for a steal only $20!

This is the adorable SUGAR cube. 2 eyeshadow palettes, blushes and two mini lip glosses. It is really small, so it is also portable and has the happy colors that SUGAR is best known for. It is a metallic hot pink and just would look crazy cute on your bathroom counter with your other kawaii cosmetics.

I got all four of the above lip glosses, called SUGAR Lip Slicks. They have a neat angled sponge tip applicator and a squeezable tube so you can get every last bit of gloss out. Why don’t all glosses come this way? Oh can you stand how cute they are? I just want to nom them they are so adorable. They are like candy sticks for your lips.

I also got this lipgloss called SUGAR shellac and I just had to share the teeny tiny little lip brush with you. It is so twee it almost hurts but it really is a great applicator too. Many glosses I try have big brushes which can be less than accurate. This one is terrif!

This is the SUGAR big pink body brush (or face powder brush which is my plan for it). I would not use it with bronzer because I don’t want to kill the pink-ness. It is so fluffy and sweet its like a cupcake brush!

I cannot wait to use all my new goodies. In fact, that’s what I am going to do now – post this, shine up my face and get SUGAR-y!
