My Christmas Goodies

I should preface this by saying that this post is in no way a means to brag about what I got for Christmas. I'm genuinely excited and happy to get what I got and I don't feel entitled to the presents that I did get. I asked for a bunch of beauty related stuff for Christmas and got a little something special too and I wanted to share it with you guys since it's related to the blog!

The most exciting bit was this gift from my sister!

.

Oh yeah, that's the Naked palette. I've already played around with this and so happy to get it! An EOTD and a swatch and review post will be coming up!

I also got my first set of Shiro Cosmetics products! They were having a holiday special where you could get two Intertubes for $10 (when they normally retail for $13.00) so I asked to try out two and also got some shadow samples with it.

.

My boyfriend and I aren't big on surprises so we usually tell each other what we'd like for Christmas or for our birthday. This time for Christmas, he got me an Awesome Box by Indie Style and held onto to until Christmas. I'll be talking about this in a separate post but here's a preview of the contents!

.

I got a ten pack of Hi-Chews in the Mango flavor but I've already eaten through part of a pack and had a pack stolen by my sister, so there's no picture of it.

The last two things I got from other members of my boyfriend's family and isn't beauty related at all but I'm joyous about getting them.

This is an DIY Eraser Kit that you make using your microwave.

and this is an edible, DIY, Candy Sushi Kit.

I found out about the existence of these kids kits through a youtube user by the name of RRCherrypie. He's got these videos showing how he makes all these cool Japanese snacks and trinkets and I knew I wanted to try at least one of these kits. I may not be able to read Japanese but luckily they've got pictures on the back.

My parents actually got a new camera, meaning I've got a new camera to "borrow" which I used to take pictures of everything. Expect me to be fiddling around and changing the quality of pictures that I take while I get acquainted with the camera!

How was your guys' Christmas? Was it fun? Did you eat lots of good food?
