Haul 8 and 9 September 2012 ^^

Hey guys! I decided to do a combined haul instead of having two separate posts for these two days. So anyways, LEGOOOOOOOOOOOOO :*

8 September 2012 :)

FROM ONLINE
It's quite difficult to find elf in Singapore so I usually get them from an online shop. I got:

  • elf Studio Blush in Mellow Mauve <3
  • elf Eye Crease Brush
  • LA Girl Pro Conceal High Definition Concealer in Natural









FROM FOREVER 21

  • Lavender Extract Makeup Cleansing Wipes $5
  • Peach Flower Clips! :D $3
  • Black Heart Mirror $2









FROM MAC
So the Pro Longwear Concealer in NW20 was instock at the MAC store in Vivo, so my mum told me to get it as not only was my concealer in this shade running out, it is also difficult to find this shade often as it is always outta stock. Guys I know I just bought this concealer in NC15 yesterday but I usually use that shade (NC15) for my undereyes to brighten them up. I can use it as my foundation but I will have to set it with powder foundation to give me a more natural look as this shade kinda makes me look yellow :( Whereas NW20 makes me look more natural and I set it was normal loose translucent powder. But whatever :) I won't be using this until I finish my current NW20 one and my new NC15 one :)




FROM SEPHORA
I got their Mineral Powder Brush and it retails at $35 :O Although it says it's for Mineral Powder, I use it for foundation as it is really good in blending and buffing the foundation :) If you're looking for a cheaper alternative to this brush I recommend you try the Coastal Scents one but I find this more dense, so once I save up for a Sephora spree I'll definitely get another one of this :)




FROM TANGS
My mum brought me to Tangs initially to look at the Bobbi Brown and Anna Sui counters but later she realised that they were having some super mega sale on shoes and stuff and dragged me to the shoes section. She bought two pairs of shoes and I got a bag for helping her carrying her stuff :D The bag was originally $69 but there was a 70% discount so do the maths :D




9 September 2012

FROM SIX

  • Various earstuds for $2 per set
  • Black pool ball?? bracelet $2
  • Cat clip $4
  • Leopard print pouch $8







FROM GUARDIAN
I got the Rimmel Lycra Pro Nail Polish in 293 Pop Rose $3.45 (original $6.90)


Love, :*

August favourites and mini haul! :*

Hey guys!
I had a major practical exam this morning and I felt like I really screwed it up :( So I thought shopping might help, thus I have a mini haul :) Combined the mini haul with my august favourite so yeah. Let's begin :)

AUGUST FAVOURITES

FACE:
-Silkygirl Skin Perfect CC 2-Way Foundation in 01 Light
I AM CRAZY IN LOVE WITH THIS! I've been using it everyday since I got it! I love how it corrects redness even when lightly dusted over the face, so it's perfect for school ^^v It also provides medium to full coverage, depending on how you apply it with a brush or with the sponge provided. Definitely will repurchase it when it runs out :)



EYES:
-Silkygirl Blockbuster Colour Palettes in Smokey Charm and Urban Mood
Where to begin? :/ ........................ I know with this product I seem to be contradicting myself as I initially liked it then I had a new Essence eye shadow palette and preferred that to this but during the month of August I've really been using it and I've fallen in love with it again <3 Okay, so I use the Smokey Charm one more often then the Urban Mood one as during August I had 'formal events' and more dinners to attend and I like having smokey eye makeup for formal events. But anyways, I'm thinking of getting the brown colour one this month :) Like the one with different shades of browns ^^


-Essence Marble Mania Eye Shadow in 03 Swirl it, Baby!
I love all Essence eye shadow in general, but when it's marble eye shadow... :> I wanna get more of these but my Watsons outlet seriously needs to update this stock :(



- Silkygirl Double Intensive Gel Eyeliner in 01 Pure Black
I always loved this. But the problem was that I couldn't find an eyeliner brush that really gave me the look I wanted. The brush provided was not bad, but I wanted a brush that would be able to give a thinner line. But yeah, I've found a brush that is really awesome and works will with this and its the Essence Gel Liner Brush. But now that I have the proper brush, I've been using this more often! :*



LIPS:
-Strawberry Yogurt Lip Balm
I find this better than Maybelline Baby Lips not just cos' it's cheaper, but it feels creamier and nicer to use :)

-Silkygirl Moisture Shine Lipstick in 02 Innocent Pink
I don't usually wear lipsticks, but I find super creamy and I LOVE the colour. It doesn't dry your lips which is another plus point :)



NAILS:
-Silkygirl 2-in-1 Protective Top & Base Coat
I didn't buy this in August but it was during this month that I realised how much I really love it and can't live without it! It is a good drugstore alternative for other higher-ends nail polishes brands like OPI.


TOOLS:
-Stipple Brush (elf brand)
I don't really really love this brush, meaning that if I were to lose it or if it broke I wouldn't really care. There is nothing bad about stipple brushes, it's just that I prefer the coverage given from flat top brushes :*




MINI HAUL!!
