Las Vegas Trip 2019

I visited Las Vegas, Nevada this past March for the first time and had a great experience. It was 70-80F and sunny during the three days I was there. We flew American Airlines and landed to my surprise with slots at the gates of the airport. We uber to the hotel-MGM Grand, drop our things and we took the RTS bus (you can buy a 3-day pass for $20 using the mobile app) to the Venetian. The RTS consist of the Deuce and the SDX, the Deuce is a double decker local bus and the SDX is the Strip and Downtown Express.

We took the Deuce from the MGM Grand to the Venetian to grab brunch at Bouchon. I ordered the *Petit Déjeuner Américaine which is two eggs any style with bacon, sausage & potato croquettes with toasted whole wheat, a Bouchon Bakery pastry, fresh juice & Bouchon blend coffee with a total of $23.50 I chose the Almond croissant as my bakery pastry and grapefruit juice. I love the Bouchon blend coffee. After we walked to the Wynn stop and caught the SDX to the North Vegas Outlet. I purchased my very first Michael Kors bag. It was an Emmy Large Saffiano Leather Dome Satchel, however, I went home the following week and saw it on the regular Michael Kors sale section for cheaper--the same exact bag. You can take the SDX fro the North Vegas Outlet to the South Vegas Outlet. If you like convenience and luxurious brands, I would recommend you to stick to the North Vegas Outlet. The North Vegas outlet has the bus stop directly across from each other, however, the South Vegas Outlet has a Downtown stop but you would have to get back on the same stop and take it to the last stop and back around passing the South Vegas Outlet to get yourself back to the Strip. The South Vegas Outlet also doesn't have as many luxurious brands and the stores and selection are slightly smaller. However during my experience at both outlet, I feel the locals prefer the South Vegas outlet, which has a huge parking lot and the tourists flock to the North Vegas outlet.




After visiting the North Vegas Outlet, we were 20 minutes late to our “O" BY CIRQUE DU SOLEIL® show. It is a must see, I highly recommend it. It was a water show and the stunts were amazing. For dinner, we went across the street from the Bellagio to Planet Hollywood for the Gordon Ramsay Burger. There was a 30 minute wait and we were seated at the bar. We ordered the Onion rings, burnt Ends Poutine and Hog Burger. I love the burnt ends poutine, it is a huge portion well enough for two people without ordering a burger. I was disappointed at the Hog Burger, it wasn't fully cooked and it was too greasy for my taste. The bacon was too fatty, but I did like the pickles in the mix.

The next day we took the SDX to Fremont and noticed a different atmosphere, a more mellow feeling in the casinos here. You should buy all your souvenirs on this place for cheaper. We took the SDX bus back and got off at Bellagio and walked passed the Fountain and to Casear Palace for the Bucchanal Buffet. Even with the VIP package, you still have to get in line to another line which was about 30-45 minutes for mediocre food. The foods that stood out for me was the mashed potatoes and gelato and orange juice. I didn't feel well afterwards and went home. I slept from 8pm to 4am that day after eating from that place. Do not recommend that place to anyone. The next day, we just relaxed and visited Aria and eat at the brunch buffet which I do recommend. After that we visited the South Vegas outlet and I brought a blouse at the Ann Taylor Factory Store. We took the bus back the hotel and visited the Dapper Doughnut and uber to the airport.

Dior Forever Skin Glow 24h* Wear Radiant Perfection Skin-Caring Foundation

   

This brand was one of the first makeup brands that I was exposed to ages ago from my mom, who knows this brand as "Christian Dior". I love the sleek and modern packaging which leads more for the hip city working girl haha. I received this product as complimentary for testing purposes and was happy to test out a new foundation.. The product claims that it can be flawless for 24 hours while leaving the skin looking radiant. I wasn't sure 100% of my exact shade and since summer was coming, so I stayed safe and chose neutral - light skin with neutral undertones. I applied it with an airbrush and it went on smoothly with a cooling sensation. My skin loved it; it was the perfect shade!! I didn't wear a primer or moisturizer underneath and I have dry-sensitive skin. It covered all my pores and made my skin look nice. It does oxide to a bit more warmer a few minutes later so perfect for the summer. My skin felt a bit tighten 10 minutes later so I'm guessing that there are anti-aging properties in this product. I love the full coverage and my mom would love this more. Plus SPF!

I love this slick black gold packaging.
Even though this color is not a new color, I prefer this packaging over the original gold bars.
I purchased this mainly due to pretty packaging and love the mauve pink color.
Creamy, satin and pigmented, all the above. Plus I love the slight berry scent.

I love this brow pot. I just wish that there was a pencil version too.
It's soft, smooth and easy to work with.
I have been using this non-stop since I've opened up.

I don't care how much this is in the future but I will always buy this. This product has been my holy grail cleanser as I am in my 30s. It's breaks down makeup and lightly exfoliates my face at the same time. My skin feels clean afterwards without the feeling of moisture being stripped away. The texture of my skin is super soft. When I tried using other cleansers, my sensitive dry face tends to miss this product.

Pumpkin, pineapple papaya extracts are fruits and vegetables that I love so obviously the scent made me love this product more.

Becca Light Chaser Highlighter For Face & Eye

   

I have the shade, Champagne Dream flashes Bellini, it is a Soft peach with a rose gold shift. I have a rosy pink undertone so I thought that this shade would look nice on me, however, it flashes with a tone of purple blue on my skin. It does flashes with two colors so it matches with the unicorn theme that was popular a month or two ago. It's a nice color for the summer but you must handle the product with care otherwise it easily breaks when dropped.
