If you guys follow me on Instagram or Twitter, you might know that I recently won the Designer Bag Giveaway that Beauteque hosted at the beginning of this month and I absolutely couldn't be more shocked and thankful! Its funny because when I actually went to enter I almost exited the page because I knew there wasn't a chance on Earth I would ever win against so many other entries, but here I am to share everything I won today.
I've never considered myself to be a lucky person so I almost thought I was dreaming at first haha, but its definitely a lesson for future use that big or small, its always worth taking the risk and giving anything in life a shot.
I'm going to try to make this post as short as possible so I don't turn it into a novel, but I plan on doing reviews for at least 75% of what I got so actual product explanations and my opinions on each will come very soon! For now here's a peek at everything they included in this crazy huge giveaway.
First up is the star of the show which is of course, the Michael Kors tote which still has a tag on it for $269.00. OH MY GOSH, right?!? The most expensive bag I've ever owned was $40 that my boyfriend actually bought me last year for Christmas which I love dearly, so this is one of those things I never expected to have in my possession but here it is.
I've kind of been in limbo on what to do with it, but I think I'll use it as a bulk bag when I'm going on trips or sleepovers and things like that :) Apart from that, it will probably end up being a display piece in my room to hold items I need to review or things I have extras of.

Most of the prizes included were skincare, but I did get a few makeup related products including this Etude House Etoinette brush collection which includes a carrying pouch and 3 brushes, a Beauteque Minerals Compact Powder in Caramel Chica, and a Secret Pore Rich Balm by Lioele which acts as a primer that I'm crazy excited to try.
Both the powder and balm are in huge sizes too, so despite being a bit pricey I think you're really getting a lot of bang for your buck with these ones! These will all get separate reviews down the line, so stay tuned :)

Now comes skincare, which is easily the largest bulk of the products so get ready for a whole lot of products!
Starting with cleansers and masks, I received a Magic Remover for Mascara by Nature Republic, Skinfood's Black Sugar Honey wash off mask, and 3 Berrisom Animal Sheet Masks including a sheep for bright and shiny skin, a tiger for firm and healthy skin, and a panda for clear and lively skin. I also received the Baking Powder Cleansing Foam from Etude House and Mizon's Good Night White Sleeping Mask, as well as an Appletox Peeling Cream from Tony Moly.
I did get a toner too, which is the Benton Aloe BHA Skin Toner to prevent acne, irritation, and redness in the skin. Its even good for people with very sensitive or dry skin, which is perfect for me at the moment since I've been having a nasty little hive break out lately from some detergent!
There were a few moisturizers as well in this giveaway, including two from The Face Shop's Mango Seed range, which are the Spray Volume Essence as well as the Facial Butter.
Also from Mizon that I mentioned earlier, I got their Snail Recovery Gel Cream which contains 74% snail secretion filtrate, an ingredient I've never heard of but have seen pop up in quite a few of these products! Asian skincare seems incredibly interesting, so I'm pretty excited to see how everything performs in a full routine together :)

Finally I just have a few random miscellaneous items, including a 5 pack of Skin79 Eye Gel Patches, a Beauteque Minerals Exfoliating brush (which FYI is the softest brush EVER), a Macaron shaped lip balm in Green Apple from It's Skin, a Holika Holika Penguins Dream Hand Cream in Floria Pink, AND finally an adorable little kitty Beanie Boo named Muffin, which happens to be my dogs favorite toy because he only loves toys with the large eyes like this! Though this ones way too cute to let him get a hold of :P Sorry Gizmo.
Also not pictured is the Holika Holika 99% Soothing Aloe Gel because it started leaking on me so I had to switch its container ;( Which is a huuuuge shame since it came in a cool little leaf shaped bottle! I'll still link it below so you can check it out.
So to say the least, I can never say thank you enough to Beauteque for hosting this giveaway, and even giving me the opportunity to ever win a haul of products like this! Please give their site a ton of love since they carry some really awesome brands, and they're a really cool company that seem to genuinely care about their shoppers.
I believe Beauteque hosts giveaways like this every month or so on their website, so if you're sad about not winning this time around don't give up hope because I'm sure there will be many, many more sweet prizes to come in the future! I'm definitely curious to see what their next one will include.
What products would you like to see a review of first? And have you ever shopped from Beauteque before ?
