[HAUL] E.L.F. and MILANI Cosmetics

Hi lovelies! How are you and your day so far? If you ask me, well, as of typing this, my tongue is burning because I didn’t realize my coffee is still oh-so-hot when I took a big sip. Argh! But that aside, I have a quick haul for you today.

Do you still remember Chona? My kikay friend who I was with at the MUFE Workshop and the FIDE Fashion Week? Well, she’s no longer here in Singapore. Sad because I no longer have someone who I can easily drag to events anytime haha, but I’m happy for her because she’s just given birth to a beautiful baby girl and she’s now happily living in the US with her family.

Why did I mention her? Well, a month ago, one of our common friends went to the US and I guess met up with her and a few weeks after that, I have these makeup goodies from her. This is not the first time she’s given me makeup products from the US, but this is just very thoughtful of her. It’s been over a year since she left for the US but she never fails to remember. She’s a keeper.

Now, let’s see what she got me here. She got me two lip balm tints, 1 single eyeshadow and 1 concealer. She even apologized that these are all she’s able to get for me. Man! This is already awesome!

The packaging reminds me of MAC Tendertones. I haven’t own one before but since I’ve watched a lot of Elle Fowler’s videos, I kind of got familiar with some of the MAC products.

I’ve tried them both and though I like the colors, I find them a bit too sticky for my liking and a little drying on my lips (it could also be because I was a little dehydrated that day when I first tried them). However, I love its pigmentation. See my video here where I did a swatch of them.

I guess Chona forgot my skintone haha, but you know what? I tried to dab this on my acne scars and then set it with my pressed powder and it kind of did the trick. I don’t know if that’s in any of Chona’s plans, but I’m pretty sure I can make use of this concealer despite how far its shade is from mine. See my video here where I did a swatch of this concealer.

This one I haven’t tried yet but the swatch of it should already give you an idea how pigmented it is. Although I don’t normally wear this color on my eyes, I might use this for a look I’d wear when filming a video or for a Face-Of-The-Day entry here on my blog.

And that’s it for this haul. Have you tried any of these products? Let me know your thoughts.

CLOTHING & SHOES HAUL: SM DEPARTMENT STORE

Hi everyone! Anyone missed me? Anyone? No one?!!! Whaaaatttttt?!!!!! End of the world for me. :(

Hurhur! Kidding aside, I miss all of you! I miss blogging and putting up videos on YouTube which is why I’m here with my comeback video. Hoorah!

I hope you don't skip the video but if you did, I mentioned in the video the reason why I’ve been MIA for a while. A lot of things happened. My sister got hospitalized, we moved to a new house and we went back to the Philippines. We were there for almost a month and it’s so much fun! While we were there, I, of course, did a little bit of shopping which means I’ll be doing a ton of hauls for this blog and my YouTube channel. And here goes the first of my many hauls to come!

Since I've already talked about these items in the video, I'll just be showing you the photos here and won't blabber much about 'em - just another way to say that I'm a lazy blogger, hehe.

Alright! Maybe I'll blabber a little... just a little. Hoho! <3

I got these shoes for such a great deal. Individually, they cost PHP299 but if you buy two pairs, you get one pair for only PHP199 - 2 pairs of flats for only PHP400! How can I pass up on such a good bargain?! That's why I got myself not only two but four pairs, hohoho!

FRONT (499.75 PHP)

BACK

FRONT (400 PHP)

BACK

I bought two pairs of short-shorts because my old ones are... well, old, hahaha! And it's been years since I bought new shorts. I'm really not a shopaholic and I rarely shop for clothes, so I guess it's just right that I treat myself to these two beautiful and lovely shorts. Don't you just love the colors I chose?! They're so spring-ish and summer-ry! I LOVE EM!!!

For some reason I got drawn to this tees the first time I saw it. I don't know what's with it that I wanted so bad to have it. Got it for 499.75 php. I still don't know when I'm gonna wear it though, and where to.

I simply can't wait to use this denim-looking jacket! I love how it fits on me and I love the color. I'm so happy I bought this. I got it for only PHP 599.75 - what a steal, right?

And how can I not have this hoodie jacket? I love me some pink hoodie jacket! Oh yeah! Bought it for PHP 899.75.

Lastly, I got myself a dress that I can wear to work. I'm gonna go back to the employment world real soon that's why I bought this, hehe.

And that's it, folks! Have you gone shopping lately? What's your recent purchases? Let me know! And oh! Thanks for reading. :)

Haul

HAUL: Za-Cosmetics Products!

Hi everyone!

Last month, (Nov 1-4) there was a John Little Sale at White Sands Mall and I got myself a few items. Just a few. Heehee. And they’re all from Za-cosmetics because I really wanted, for so long, to try something from that brand. So let’s cut to the chase and let’s see what I have here:

The first in line is this “12 in 1! BB Cream” with SPF 50+ / PA+++. It is originally priced at 15.90 SGD but I got it for 10.18 SGD because they’re giving 20-40% discount at that time. And if you’ve been a follower for a while, you’d know how I easily get attracted to face makeup such as foundation, bb cream/cc cream, concealers and the like.

I’ve tried it a few times already and though I can’t say yet if I really like it, I know that I don’t hate it. Once I’ve made up my mind on whether I like it or not, I’ll write a review on it.

Next is this Perfect Fit Concealer in shade 01 which was originally retailed at 13.90 SGD, but I got for 8.90 SGD only. At that time, I actually didn’t know what shade I should get for myself. Good thing, the saleslady was very accommodating. She was not pushy at all, just plain courteous and helpful. Too bad, I didn’t get her name. And you know what? That’s what really attracts me more. If you’re a salesperson and you want to sell me something, don’t be too pushy. Give me some time to be curious enough to ask you before you give me all your unsolicited sales-talk, haha.

So, about this concealer: I like how creamy it is and how it can really cover up blemishes. I think what I don’t like so much about it is it dries up too fast. You might think, “How can that be a problem?” Well, there’s one time I forgot to blend it right after I put it on and when I did blend it, it wouldn’t budge anymore, hahaha. So I had to remove it and applied it all over again. Could you picture what I meant? If you couldn’t, never mind, hahaha.

The next two items are what I’ve read so many rave reviews on: The Za Perfect Fit Two-Way Foundation (Refill and Case) which I got for 11.84 SGD and 6.34 SGD (originally sold at 18.50 SGD and 9.90 SGD respectively). Just the case alone is already a winner in my honest opinion! It looks so classy, don’t you think so?!

I’ve been using this for quite a while now and I lalalala-looooveee it! I can now relate to those who blogged about their love for this product because it is really amazing. Its coverage is dependable and it helps me keep the oil on my face at bay which is just totally splendid! Like seriously!

And last but not least, I purchased this Smooth Cleansing Oil because I’m about to run out of my Bioré one. If you want me to write a review about the Biore Cleansing oil, just let me know in the comments below. I got this for 9.92 SGD after the 40% discount promo.

I haven’t tried this, so I can’t say anything about it yet. All I know is that it's a cleansing oil which is supposed to help remove makeup even those water-proof ones. Do you want me to write a review on this? Just let me know, okay?

***

And that’s it! How about you, my dear readers? What’s your recent purchase? I’d love to know/see/read your latest haul, so leave me a link to your blog on the comment section below. Happy Holidays!
