My Online Shopping Addiction

Posted by IcedNyior on May 29, 2008  |  No Comments

My name is IcedNyior and I’m an online shopaholic.

Its weird you know. Ask any of my friends like Pam or Aree and ask them how I am when we go out shopping. I’m usually the one who tags along, gives comments and only once in a while do I buy something – and that is quite seldom.

However, online shopping hit me like a mind blowing orgasm. LOL! Its so hard to stop myself from transferring over money for this or that item. Sprees are the worst!

Sprees are when people all gather their orders and order stuff from international websites like Bath and Body Works, Victoria Secret, Sephora, Amazon, etc then save on shipping costs. Its usually organized by two people – one in US and one over here. So the websites ships the items to person in US who then ships it to someone here who then distributes it to everyone else.

So yea anyway, I got the two packages I was waiting for. Yey! I mentioned it a few posts back coz I have to wait a month for the stuff to get here.

I bought these items

• Bath and Body Works Black Raspberry & Vanilla Body Splash = RM30
• Victoria’s Secret Beauty Rush Grapefruit Blast Double Body Mist = 2 for USD27.90
• Victoria’s Secret Beauty Rush Grapefruit Blast Body Drink Lotion= 2 for USD27.90
• I actually bought another BBW Chocolate Amber Body Splash but I didn’t like the smell so I sold it off to someone else at the same price I bought it.

I also bought these products from elf (EyesLipsFace.com) at Rm50 for 6

• Candy Shop Lip Tins – Berry Pop & Cherry Bomb
• Wet Gloss Lash & Brow Clear Mascara
• Brightening Eye Colour – Drama, Luxe & Ivy
• Brightening Eye Liner – Coffee
• Natural Radiance Blusher – Flushed
• Earth & Water Mascara Duo – Brown
• Bought a few other elf items for my sisters also.

Haven’t had the chance to try it yet tho. Will write reviews soon.

DKNY Delicious Night

Posted by IcedNyior on April 16, 2008  |  2 Comments

"Delicious Night by DKNY is finally released in stores (October 2007) and is already being billed as energetic, intriguing and seductive. This fragrance opens with pomelo, crushed ginger and a chilled blackberry martini accord. It then encompasses scents of freesia, blooming orchids, jasmine, iris, amber, incense, myrrh and patchouli.

Initial reviews rate this new fragrance in the DKNY range as “absolutely sensational!”

Hot on the heels of the other successful DKNY fragrances of Be Delicious and Red Delicious, we’re sure this will make a delicious night. The perfume comes in the usual apple shaped packaging and DKNY uses a luscious dark purple in contrast with the red and green from the other DKNY “Be” range items."

Why did I know know about this? Ahh! I’m a huge huge fan of DKNY scents. Even back when they had that squareish/hexagonal tall bottle. Love love love it! I currently have the Be Delicious (which I have had for 2 yrs now and is still smells utterly gorgeous!) – the green bottle – and love the Red Delicious which had an added raspberry like smell. And now this! According to this review, it has no apple scent which is okay for me but is more like a sexy, light oriental fragrance. Hurm sounds really interesting.

I can get someone to bring it back for me from states but she’s only coming back in June (can’t ship perfumes, against US shipping laws). I already asked her to check the price list for me and its kind of standard for DKNY perfume. Got my Be Delicious 1.7oz EDP around this price too:

0.2 oz Eau de Parfum Rollerball RM 152.90
1 oz Eau de Parfum Spray RM 170.90
1.7 oz Eau de Parfum Spray RM 225.90
3.4 oz Eau de Parfum Spray RM 293.90

So how???? Wanna buy it when i reaches here or just get mine in June? Only god-knows-when it’s coming but if I buy it here, I might get some freebies when I buy in a set.

Hurm…decisions decisions!
