addictive; i'm officially hooked

this is a picture-intensive post (as usual). makeup hauling makes me a unusually happy girl (umm.. lady). my friends can never understand why i can haul on makeup/skincare while i can never understand their love for shoes/ clothes/ bags (i mean expensive branded ones). oh well, everyone has their own spending habits.

first up, my paul & joe haul from robinsons expo sale.

paul & joe light cream foundation SPF 15 PA++

  • soft texture & instantly melts onto skin
  • contains rich moisturizing properties
  • ensures a dewy, sensuous skin
  • makes skin feel fresh & comfortable
  • leaves you a beautiful appearance

 

paul & joe protective dual powder foundation with SPF25 PA++

  • the coated powder lasts long without making your complexion look dull. giving you a light, smooth, soft focus, semi matte finish
  • contains superfine SPF powder, enabling outstanding sun protection with a thinner coating on the skin's surface for a luminous finish

 

i love the floral casing, so pretty !

revlon colorstay mineral foundation SPF10

this is a long-wearing, loose powder foundation that is good for the skin. it combines the patented colorstay technology and softflex for lightweight comfort, together with minerals such as rose quartz, mother of pearl and topaz, all of which are beneficial to skin. it applies evenly and blends for a soft, natural looking, seamless appearance and a smooth, flawless finish. it is non-irritating and fragrance and oil-free.

to apply, twist the cap to release the full sized brush. swirl brush into powder and tap off excess. blend powder evenly all over face, buffing in circular motions.

this gapbody lotion smells really heavenly :3 it's glass bottle not the usual plastic one. and so, this sums up my robinsons expo sale haul.

i've finally got this skin79 oriental gold bb cream ! HAPPY !

triple effect premium bb cream with whitening, wrinkle Improvement, UV interception SPF25 PA++. keeps skin more resilent and brilliant with natural ingredients such as gold, flower extracts, leaf extracts, persimmon extract, and caviar extract. improves skin into glossy and sleek status, more completely protecting from exposure to harmful UV rays.

infused with oriental tea blend ingredients including white tea, green tea and black tea keep skin brighter and firmer. two patent ingredients of the oriental tea newplex and natural complex extract keep skin healthy by protecting from outer harmful substances.

comes with creamy touch color for lip & cheek which i absolutely adore !


this is my lil' haul from nature republic (again).

blemish lab ac bb cream SPF20, a mild blemish-balm cream for sensitive and trouble skin.

black head break remover massage oil, a remover oil for smooth nose that minimises pores after remove blackhead in pores. cover a fair amount over nose, spread and massage for about 3 mins, then rinse with warm water, wash with foam cleanser.

color deco nail colors, aren't these colors gorgeous !? not to mention the prices are to-die-for LOL

i love getting free samples since i can try before buying the full-sized ones. but sometimes it can be really troublesome to ask for samples especially you meet really nasty or black-faced sales ladies.

i love essential hair products since they do wonders to tame my somewhat fizzy hair. i really love the fact that it smoothens my hair ends effortlessly (:

i bought the spring magazine to get the freebies. hmm i was kind of disappointed with the fabric quality of the freebies though :C

free skinc renew conenzyme Q10 at kinokuniya with female july magazine.

her world magazine hits 50 ! free slice of cake from bakerzin & a free sample from sephora to be redeemed.

cleo magazine, check out 2010 cleo beauty hall of fame !

this rilakkuma pouch is so kawaii ! i couldn't resist buying it and it was the LAST piece ! perfect for storing my makeup :p

i bought these at the infamous enamour store located at far east plaza level 4.


double eyelid stickers. i'm so lazy to use them, seriously.


the black eyeliner lash glue. this is really expensive, at $20plus :/

initially, i wanted to get lashes only. end up getting more than i should. i don't think i'll be going to that store again i guess.


another 2 boxes of fake lashes. buying online is so much cheaper !

majolica majorca eyelash curler given by my friend (: i don't see this selling in singapore though.

i hauled the face shop in malaysia. the prices there are much cheaper and i got these freebies with purchase of $40.

the cotton pads look really good to use yea. my friend got it free without buying anything hahas !

this lipgloss handphone charm is so cute and pretty !

i bought nail polishes (:  

this eyeshadow is very cheap !! only left this, a pretty shimmery pale green color.

very cheap !! i always stock up lens solutions in malaysia :p

btw i did my classic manicure & pedicure for only $58, which means about SGD26 :x i chose colors from the opi shrek collection.

i did a simple eye makeup for the short trip to JB.

here i'm using:

  • urban decay midnight cowboy eyeshadow
  • nature republic prism star sparkling eyeshadow SYL303 (gold)
  • etude house eye glow pencil 5
  • sana new born lasting w brow LB3

  5. woot!!! u know wat? i was JUST having a pint of Ben & Jerry's! A cookie affair :) anyways, i was down to the last bit and major guilt caught up with me and i quickly chucked it into the freezer. and now i can feel my rump growing sideways... *hic*

    They used to have this cinnamon oatmeal flavour but i've not seen it around for a very long time.

    Which shades are u for both the Paul & Joe foundies?? U use a medium for the MAC mineralised skin finish, rite?

  7. hazel, ooo i think i'd tried the cinnamon one before.. not bad.. they keep having new flavors.. and i like most of 'em except the cherry garcia.. i don't like artficial cherries..

    for mac, i'm using medium for msf natural.. paul & joe i'm using shade 20.. i bought shade 10 for the refill to try since both suits me.. anyway, these foundations will be discontinued and replaced by new improved ones.. that's why they are on sale.. (:

  14. How much is the Solo Care in Malaysia? I use that too. I've always wondered about Paul & Joe's stuff. I love their packaging, but have not used before. Please review on the liquid foundation! Someone recommended the loose powder to me before but when I went to try out at the counter, the countainer is quite big and powder did not seem that finely milled. Maybe I take another look. They have a counter at ALT. Heh heh.

    ReplyDelete
  15. about 38ringgit ? hmm i haven't try yet.. will do a review at a later date yea.. oh they've it at ALT ? should be easier to try over there ? lol

    ReplyDelete
  17. me too, especially when they are on offers now hahas ! it's hard to choose my fav coz all are so nice

    ReplyDelete
  18. Nice haul! I will love to go shopping with you! Whenever I shop with my friends, always ended up me buying things only. Where did you get the lashes online? I always get those with very thin lash bone because thick ones hurt!

    ReplyDelete
  19. No problem at all coz we've the same interests. I'm the only one among my friends who always buy makeup. Usually I'll buy more when shopping alone. I bought the lashes at sg beauty website. I think the lash bone is not too thick imo

    ReplyDelete
  20. Hey how much are those lashes? :D

    ReplyDelete
  21. i think around $15 per box (:
