Some pics from a few hours ago. Went into the city and stopped by the National Building Museum. They have a really great gift shop actually. And then headed to Capitol Hill to have lunch at Good Stuff Eatery. I wore pants though because it was supposed to be another cool day but it ended up being pretty hot. I should have just worn the dress I wanted but oh well what’s a little sweat anyway.

From the gift shop. Pantone, wooden utensils, & metro maps happen to be some of my favorite things.

I’ve also continued with last week’s free sample usage.

I was so disappointed by Burt’s Bees’ Radiance set. These two items worked amazingly. My skin looked so good with the radiance moisturizer! However the scent just really bothered me. :(

I’m really sensitive the scents in facial products. This one just smelled sort of like stale sweet tea… and it didn’t fade which was the real problem. I ended up having to wash it off. But aside from the scent the product was really good.

The Skin Food samples were nice. Skin Food items are always nice but not always noteworthy.

I really like the Ettusais lip essence (stick) items. They’re sheer and moisturizing with a great little package. I got this one courtesy of Yesstyle. This particular version is a collaboration with the Japanese brand Swati. They added their designs to the tube.

The lip balm is sheer but has a pinkish sheen to it. They’re always moisturizing but not too sticky or thick and lasts for a long time. Works well on top of matte lipsticks too! Just a really great and simple lip balm.
