June, the hauling month

june, the typical s'porean fav mth since it's the yearly gss affair.. everywhere sales.. actually then again there are sales every now & then.. be it small or big.. anyways, shopping is s'porean fav hobby hahas xD hmm this applies to me pretty much since i'm a typical s'porean lady heez~ & i'm proud to be one :3 well, i simply can't stop shopping.. i see i like i buy(provided my wallet ok :x) some buys take me a long time to tink.. some no need to tink.. are u the same as me ? and, most of the times, we buy things knowing dat we already have similar ones.. or things dat we dont need or live without.. we buy things we want, not need or should.. it's a different matter altogether (: but then again, if we truly feel happy abt our buys.. y not ?

umm.. it's gonna be a pretty long post.. pics-intensive for sure.. part of my buys for june alone.. can be scary to some.. but actually, i dint spend really alot.. not my one month's pay for sure.. it's the gss period remember ? and, dat doesnt mean i'll stop hauling after june :x

ok. here goes..

2 nyx goodies boxes & 1 artofbeauty (zoya) goodies package..

1 drugstore goodies box

first up, zoya.. i dint get any nail polishes fyi.. i only got three glossy lipbalms.. FOR FREE :p BUT.. i've to pay for the shipping charges of coz..

zoya's website description: Zoya Hot Lips Lip Gloss is the worlds only lip gloss that combines color with lip therapy in one product. Zoya Hot Lips applies like silk and is flavored and scented with a light berry essence. All Zoya Hot Lips Lip Gloss is paraben free. Pick your favorite color, we guarantee you'll be addicted.

this looks abit gross ? dont ask me y coz idk also -,- anyway shouldnt be a problem using it i guess..

next up, nyx..

27 nyx round lippies n_~ lotsa purples & browns..

i've tried on cinnamon sugar & i like it ! soft muted neutral brown with slight chrome finish.. no distinctive lippie smell/taste i like (: u can pair this with strong bold eye makeup & u'll look fantastic !


here's the swatch on my hand.. aww pretty color isnt it ?


16 nyx glitter mania jumbo pencils ^^ all the colors are sooo pretty.. no swatches as yet coz haven't use..

ooo i'm loving my nyx buys so far.. when i received the boxes from the postman i was v.happie & excited hahas xD he must be wondering y the hell i bought so much.. come in boxes somemore.. 55 nyx chrome eyeshadows.. i took sometime to consider & finally bent on getting them on the 2nd order.. if i decided earlier i would have save abit on US postage -,- anyways this was definitely worthwhile.. seeing the beautiful swatches online i really can't resist temptations anymore.. who can ?
