Manic Panic: The Coolest Eyeshadow Case Ever!

I happened to notice a friend's post of what she received in her Beauty Box 5 sub. I spotted what looked like a cassette tape, off course I enquired as I have worked in a record store and I love music. She replied 'It's a Manic Panic Eyeshadow in a cassette tape'. Within seconds I was trying to find where I could get my hands on one. I googled Manic Panic and found the link, which is http://www.manicpaniccollection.com/ There were 2 to choose from Side A or Side B. I purchased Side A. Ok, time for the photos:

Now how cool is the packaging!!! I mean anyone in their right mind needs this right?!?!?! Well I know I sure needed it. With the added plus of it being a Vegan Cosmetic Company that's a definite sell! I have used Manic Panic panic before and I love their products.

Is it not just the cutest thing ever! I'm so in love with it. They had super fast shipping too. It came from New York to my small city in Ontario in a week.

The back of the "Cassette". It shows you can add a strap to it for carrying around! Gotta love the Bunny sign: Cruelty Free and Vegan! :)

The inside of the cassette. Sorry about my 'camera' (iPod). In this photo the right colour looks blue, where it is more true to colour (greenish) in the next photo.

Then at the very bottom it has a secret compartment that pulls out. Inside is their business card and a discount code. The packaging suggests it as a place to store your money! I love little extras like that!

This product is the best of both worlds: 1. It is thee coolest compact hands down and 2. It has great pigmentation! You can buy refills as well in a wide variety of colours. The eyeshadows themselves pop in and out very easily. A overall A+ from me!!!

From Makeup to Crafts!

I have been subscribing to a craft subscription box called Wimseybox. It's a great craft box. Every month you get all the supplies to complete the project of the month. Some months you get to make 2 or 3 small items, or 1 larger project. One month I received all the stuff to make home made Peppermint Lip Balm, it came with 3 tins! One month was a large canvas tote bag and all the supplies to either tye dye it or make a pressed pattern look! Well yesterday I received the September box. So I am doing an unboxing for the first time, since I had been requested by some friends to do so. Here she goes:

Here is what the box looks like. It comes by USPS, but for some reason it is delivered by a van driver and not by my postlady. I seen him pull up and I always hope it's for me and then I see the blue and get all excited, lol.

After peeling off the outer shell you see a nice white reusable box that even comes with a label sticker for the that has a spot to place it on the back!

I always love the presentation, no skimping here. As usual it has the prettiest of ribbon in different colours each month. You also you get a 5x7 print, with instructions on the back or inside. I like to either frame the prints after i'm done or pin them on my cork board!

"Creativity is intelligence having fun" - That is so true for me!

 I have pulled back the wrapping to discover lots of coated nylon?

 Close up of the awesome little extra pin that shows a knot and it has to do with Macrame! That is what I get to learn this month!!! I'm so excited.

 I took the layer of cards away to discover wood discs and beads? I'm still confused, and it doesn't take much, lol.

 Once I went through the box, I quickly learned I would be making a macrame hanging. So my style too! It says it takes 1.5 hours to make. We shall see how I do. But first I have to finish off another bracelet I learned how to make last month!

Last is a close up of the finished profect! It looks so neat, yet hard, lol. It says beginner/intermediate, so it probably just looks harder than it is.

So, there is my first ever unboxing of anything before. It was fun. Tomorrow I get my Topbox, so I get to do it all over again. Whimsey is a really fun box for $20 a month including shipping to Canada. Sign up through my link and save $5 off your first month.
