At the Meep Moo make-up community in Facebook we did a Halloween swap. There were only two participants at the international swap, but that was just enough! I like swaps, I love putting together packets and carefully picking out stuff I think my swap partner would like, and I get so excited to receive something selected especially for me.
This time the packet came from Canada and was HUGE! So much stuff inside!
 |
| Look at the pile! |
And that's not even all, I saved the best for the last! I got perfume samples, body butter samples, four eyeshadows, hairclip and cute spider earrings.
 |
| The hairclip |
 |
Shiro shadows. I haven't tried Shiro Cosmetics before but I've
wanted for a long time! |
 |
| The Shiro shadows and Femme Fatale shadows. Another brand I've wanted to try! |
 |
| Spider earrings! They are small studs, very pretty :) |
 |
| Haunt's mystery scent with a cute note. |
 |
Purplecat Creatives' mini body butters. These all smell fabulous, I've
already tried one as a massage oil and it worked well even for that! |
 |
| All the stuff! Except for... |
 |
The gorgeous hand-made scarf! It's purple, black and has metallic sparkly
purple in it. It's also very warm and goes perfectly with my leather jacket :) |
 |
| Even Nana loves it! |
I want to thank my swap partner again, everything was so lovely, thank you! I hope you will like your package as much!
ooooh such great goodies... <3 everything packed with so much love! Great idea!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Swaps are great and this was an awesome packet!
DeleteHow neat! A real treat! Love the scarf and bow!
ReplyDeleteMaybe someday LIB will do something like that.
We really should! Maybe for Christmas or just a late Halloween swap :)
DeleteWhat a great idea!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to Halloween now... I love orange and black together, makes a good match. :D
And the scarf was lovely! Must upgrade my knitting skills I come to think about... (Have zero.)

I haven't knitted anything in years and really sucked at it ;P But then again I did learn myself crocheting and that wasn't at all hard, so I'm sure knitting can't be either. Go for it! :)
DeleteThe mini body butters look SO cute! I wish we had more cute Halloween goodies over here in the UK.
ReplyDeleteThey are super cute! And I already found my favourite scent and put it on sparingly on evenings, so I can wake up smelling awesome ;P
DeleteFinland doesn't really have lots of Halloween stuff either, just some kids party stuff that looks really cheap.
Oh what a lovely gift. Everything in your pack seems so nice. What was the brand of the body butters?
ReplyDeleteThe body butters are by PurplecatCreatives, here's their Etsy shop http://www.etsy.com/shop/PurplecatCreatives
DeleteThe butters smell really nice and are very rich and moisturising!
I have those earrings! I had them in black too, but they broke >.<. That scarf looks beautiful on you. It makes me want to knit again.
ReplyDeleteThe earrings are so pretty! I like sparkly stuff and spiders are an excellent thing to combine with sparkle if you ask me ;P
Deletelooking so nice preety pics . nice blog .
ReplyDeleteParfum pas cher
Thanks!
DeleteWhat a fantastic package of goodies to receive! I would be dying with happiness if I had received such a thing! The pumpkin bow is just too bloody cute but all the body butters and scent samples look gorgeous - I'm loving the little tubs and labels, right up my alley! Beautiful scarf! ~♥~
ReplyDeleteThe whole packet was so awesome! I've been using the scarf for a few days and it's sure to become a favourite, just so warm and comfy :)
DeleteWow, that sounds like so much fun!!! Love the scarf, nothing beats the warmth of a handmade (with love) scarf :)
ReplyDeleteNice haul!! Raven's Blend is one of my favourite smells... nomnomnom.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I really like that smell too, it's quite unique and has many layers.
DeleteI love that kind of thing, makes it feel like christmas :P
ReplyDeleteThat stunning earings damn, they are gorgeus and will pop up nicely with your hair.
Never eard of the make up brands, share a review please if you can.
That amazing scarf.. so cute, i love when people put the effort to make it personal.
Thanks! I'll try to get a review up, I've so far only tried the body butters (and smelled all the tiny samples which were wonderful!) but the eyeshadows look very nice too.
DeleteAwww. I'm sorry there were only you and another international. We need more! You got super awesome stuff. The scarf is gorgeous. Wow. =D The spider earrings are totally cute too. =D
ReplyDeleteWell, two was just enough, I have nothing to complain about after receiving all this cool stuff ;P
DeleteWhat a great package! I really love the scarf, everything in it seems so thoughtfull and well picked for you :)
ReplyDeleteI think so too, so wonderful to know someone half the world away took time to choose things I would like! Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside :)
