Jordana Modern Matte Lipsticks



Hey y'all.  I'd like to say that I haven't updated in awhile because life got crazy and I was off being a Responsible Adult.  What really happened was I made the mistake of downloading a Pokemon LeafGreen rom.  That and my skin went crazy, so I haven't been playing with my makeup as much, which gave me more time to work on leveling up my squad, and it turned into a vicious PokeCycle of slacking off.  Now that I've finally managed to hit on a new skincare routine that's working, I figure it's time to get down to business.



Ok but we're talking about makeup, not fighting the huns.

Kheimistrii

Kheimistrii is a newish bath and body shop on Etsy.  It'd been on my radar for a little while, but I finally decided to take the plunge during her big New Year's sale.  It's a good thing I waited for the sale because I ended up hauling quite a bit.  I settled on a bar of the Ginger Glace Handmade soap and 2 oz samples of the Whip'd Body Wash in Sleepy Hollow, the Macademia Body Souffle in Dreamcatcher, the Sugar Exfoliant in Cimmerian, and the Body Butter Cream and Bubbling Scrub in Ultra Violet.  I also received a free sample of perfume oil in Kyoto.  


All my goodies, fresh out the box


Kheimistrii shipped lightening fast.  After several days worth of dithering over sizes and types of lotion, I placed my order on January 10th, and it showed up on my doorstep on the 15th.  The shipping costs were pretty reasonable too: she uses USPS Flat rate packaging.  Orders that fit into a padded envelope or small box are $5.95 and medium is $10.
