International Makeup Swap: Take 2

Hello Again!
This is the second installation of my International Makeup Swap series.  Around the same time that I swapped with Linsay from Pandora's Beauty Basket, I also swapped with another lovely lady.

Her name is Adrienne from Adrienne Adores.  We had such a good time with this swap.  I was lucky enough to find two amazing people to swap with.  And, they were both from Scotland!
Just like with Linsday, Adrienne and I discussed how much we were going to spend on each other and gave each other ideas on some products that we wanted.

Some of the items I received:
Collection 2000 Shimmer & Shade in Just Peachy
Eyeko big fat balm
MUA eyeshadows (2)
MUA lipstick in Shade 7
17  Mirror Shine Lipstick in Bee Hive ----LOVE!!
17 Blush
Adorable polka dot brush set!
Nivea Travel of Body wash
Yummy Smelling Hand Lotion
Accessorize Lip Gloss
Accessorize Nail Polish in Pink Spice
Accessorize Eye Palette
Lip Liner
Mascara
Accessorize False Eyelashes

Of course, Adrienne included a cute little card with the package.  I though that was so sweet! 


As you can see, the accessorize eye shadow palette is beautiful!  I think I fell in love with all products she included in this package, but all the accessorize items are my favorite!  Thank you, Adrienne for makeup this swap another great success <3

So, what do you think?  Would you be willing to do an international makeup swap with a complete stranger?  I hope you have as good as a time as I did!

International Makeup Swap: Take 1

Hi everyone!
Some time ago I did a makeup swap with a sweet gal named Linsay from Pandora's Beauty Basket.  Take a look at her blog, it's great!
When we first started emailing we decided to first set up a budget so we knew how much we would spend on each other. Then we both gave each other some time to collect our goodies and pretty much mailed each other's packages together.
We also gave each other ideas of things that we wanted to try out from each other's countries. I think that was the most helpful thing! She had specific items that she wanted and that made it very easy for me. :)
Some of the items that I received:
Barry M Dazzledusts in #51 & #39
2 True Lip gloss in #22
2 True loose eye shadows in #11, #12, & # 1
Beauty UK Blush
Barry M Lipgloss in #12
17 Bronzing Summer Glow Kit
No 7 Eyeshadow Quad
2 True Liquid Eyeliner
2 True Mascara
Me Me Me Beat the Blues Highlighter
I got so many awesome goodies! Did I mention that she even included some shortbread biscuits and other yummies? I am so lucky that this was a successful swap and again, thank you Linsay!!
Have you ever done a international swap? It is a great way to try out makeup items that you couldn't otherwise get in your country. Good luck and hope you enjoyed this post!
