A beauty haul from Hong Kong

I have been away on vacation and spent a week in Hong Kong. It was a nice break from the snow and cold here in Sweden. Instead I had warm days with temperatures between 22 to 28 degrees Celsius and some sun. It is amazing how your energy levels rise as soon as you get some sun in your eyes and on your skin. During my trip I did a lot of sightseeing and I became very fond of Hong Kong and can definitely recommend this as a vacation destination. There is so much to experience and see and it will keep you very busy.

I did some shopping in Hong Kong and here is my beauty haul:


The first place I went to was a MAC store in Queensway Plaza. I actually just stumbled on it as I was going to a place called Hong Kong Park.
I bought three empty eyeshadow palettes here since I cannot buy them where I live. The nearest MAC to me is a counter and they do not carry empty palettes.
I also picked up two of the Blush Ombres from Spring Colour Forecast, Ripe Peach and Azalea Blossom.


I also went to a Kiehl's store located at Times Square in Hong Kong. I picked up a Yerba Maté Tea Cleanser and an Ultra Facial Moisturizer. They were really nice and gave me two samples to try, the Acai Damage Repairing Serum and the Cucumber Herbal Alcohol Free Toner.


I couldn't go to Asia without buying some Asian makeup so I went to a SASA store in Times Square and picked up some things.
I managed to buy three mascaras:
Super Dolly Powerful Curling Mascara, a mascara with a comb from SASA's own brand.
FairyDrops Mascara and Heroine Make Mascara, two mascaras from Japan.

Two palettes from KATE a japanese brand that belongs to Kanebo:
Reflect Mirror Eyes in GY-1 (the palette on the left in the picture).
Diamond Cut Eyes in PU-1 (the palette on the right side in the picture).

Two lip products:
A lip gloss from a unknown brand and is simply called Long Lip Gloss. This was very cheap, only 15 HKD, which is approximately 14 SEK. I have tried this one and I really like it and it lasts a very long time on the lips without feeling too sticky.
B&C Apple Lip Cream, an apple shaped lip balm that contains apple extract. I have to admit that I bought this one because it was so cute.


The last beauty shopping I did was at the airport and I picked up three things from Shu Uemura.
A light peach Glow On blush called P Peach 42 and two eyeshadows, ME Green 550, a green eyeshadow with gold in it and ME Brown 850, which isn't a true brown color but more a purple taupy kind of color.

This was all the beauty shopping that I did and while I am writing this I have to admit that I bought quite a lot. So now I have put myself on a beauty shopping ban for an undetermined amount of time. Well I will probably cheat and buy something from the Liberty of London collection from MAC that is released in april. But with that beautiful packaging it doesn't count, right?
