I've decided that my next drama is going to be Coffee Prince. I've watched 1.5 episodes, and I like it so far. It's definitely a little dated at this point, considering it aired in 2007, but it was massively popular at the time, and I like Yoon Eun-hye. I'm pretty impressed with how convincingly she's playing a tomboy who could be mistaken as a guy, considering she's one of the prettiest K-drama actresses ever, imho. I mean, to go from playing a princess-to-be in Goong to a tomboy who's constantly mistaken for a dude is a pretty big 180.

Got my Sephora box for October. I like it, but don't love it. I actually would have preferred their more generic box rather than the one they customized for me, but I still like it more than I've liked my Ipsy boxes.

Sephora Play! Box October 2016

Sephora October 2016 Play Box

Included products:

Nudestix Intense Matte Lip + Cheek Pencil - Ehh. I would definitely never use a cheek pencil, particularly since I now have that blush from last month's Ipsy box. I'm also not much of a lip pencil user, except as a lip liner, but I haven't used that since like high school.

Too Cool For School Egg Mellow Cream - A "firming moisturizer." I'm always happy to get moisturizers.

Skin Inc. Pure Revival Peel - Haven't tried this yet, but I'm cool with getting a peel. I have enjoyed the one I've used by Philosophy, so I'm interested to see how this one compares.

Smashbox Always On Matte Liquid Lipstick - I thought this was a lip gloss. >.> Only found out it wasn't when I used it on top of my Sephora matte liquid lipstick, so my lips this morning were a little overboard. Seems fine, though the color (I think "Driver's Seat," though it doesn't actually say) is a little pink for me. I also think the application wand is weird, but I liked the way the product went on.

Tom Ford Orchid Soleil - A fragrance that I don't care for.

Verb Leave-in Mist - I LOVE the smell of this. When I first opened the Play box, I loved the smell of the box and thought it was a result of the fragrance they sent. It definitely wasn't, however, since I tried on the fragrance and didn't like it. Then I used the mist this morning and it turned out that this was the smell I was smelling! It reminded me of something else, but I couldn't place it... until I was in the car and it hit me. It smells like Method soap! Which I have always loved the scent of. But I don't know what fragrance it actually is. Like is it based on a flower of some kind? Or what? Anyway, the mist is kind of odd. I don't know how I feel about it. It's called a "mist," but the stuff inside is more like lotion/conditioner. So when I sprayed it on my hand to get a look, it looked like... lotion. When I think of "mist," I think of something super light, watery, transparent. I don't know if this is how it's supposed to be, or if I got a dud??
