I Have Finally Bought Stuff!

Ha ha, my haul posts were badly missed right? :D

Lol, nah, just kidding. It's really been a long time since I've last posted a haul entry. A few reasons, one being the thrifty person that I am, another being that I don't need anything at the moment (have waaayyy too much makeup to finish up) and thirdly because I've been so plugged with school work that I didn't even time to go shopping. T__T

Ahh well, but that means I've saved up quite a bit of money and I've finally made some purchases! First up, I went to the John Little expo sale (which is still on until this weekend) and I got a few necessities from there.

I've tried a sample of it, and it's amazing stuff! I tried deciphering out what made it work so well at exfoliating our skin by looking at the ingredients (AHA, BHA???) but there's nothing like that inside at all. It's just...water, lots of silicon and a whole bunch of extracts. I mean, how does water, silicon and extracts exfoliate our skin?!? Mind-boggling, but I'm content for now at how well it works.

Next, the La Senza bras there were a steal at 3 for S$30, so I couldn't resist getting them.

Fancy designs, but I shall spare you all the sight of my bra cups. :P

Then, I finally got the EOS lenses which I had order 3 months back. The seller took friggin' long to place the order and mail them out. -___- Luckily she apologized for all the trouble, and wasn't stuck-up and all that.

I got 2 pairs for S$32 I think (or was it S$30..?). The flower series in blue on the left, and the neon design in brown on the right. I'm soooo excited to try the brown ones, cos they look stunning! It's almost vampire-like, the colour.

I've been wearing GEO lenses and they're ok; sometimes they're comfortable, sometimes they just get manufacturing defects (I kinda think their QC isn't very good) and they feel scratchy. So I want to try out if the EOS brand feels more comfy and if their QC is better. We shall see, I can't really wear lenses now cos I get headaches when I wear them to lectures.

Last but not least, I got this from Under-Twenty! Was super excited when I saw the package on my table!

Ha ha, Ng Li, if you're reading this, you know who was it who got this palette from you! xD

A while back, she (the owner of Under-Twenty) put up a shout-out to anyone who wanted to purchase palettes which got damaged during shipping, and I jumped on the chance to get this Wet N Wild "Comfort Zone" palette.  She was selling it so cheaply at S$8.00, I had to have it even if the top right pan had all its eyeshadow knocked out already.

The colours are so gorgeous, and pigmented and soft! I'm going to be reviewing the palette a bit more in the next post, along with swatches and LOTDS that I've done with it. So stay tuned! But for now, thanks for reading this post. :)

John Little Expo Sale - La Senza, So Cheap!

Ha ha, I can't believe I stuck with such an auntie title but ahh well~ It's true wat; we shouldn't hide the truth right?

Anyway, here's me posting up the small haul I had over the weekend at the JL Expo sale.

First up, a La Senza Henley. I was digging how it made me look like a jailmate, and the silver words at the side until I realised...

... it wrote "Heart Breaker". =___= I'm hardly one, so I believe I won't be able to live up to this top's statement.

Ohh well, at least I'll be a criminal-heart breaker-wannabe lookalike! Heh! 8D

Next up, I got boobie shields. How can you not get them when you're at a La Senza sale???

I got re-fitted by the sale rep there; as expected, I was wearing the wrong band size. No wonder my previous shields kept riding up. These feel wonderfully comfortable, and I love both designs! One is so girly and the other so... ... SPICY! Ha ha ha, snakeskin print!

My mom took a glance at them and went "Wahhh! Snakeprint!" *shoots me suggestive look*

Anyway, those 3 items cost me only S$36. Major savings! Look at the original price:

S$145 --> S$36??? Mad awesome!

The other stuff I got was my ZA Tinted Moisturizer...

(had to get shade 30 instead of usual 20, cos they ran out. No matter, since I use it as a colourant anyway. ZA is discontinuing this product so I better get 1 backup)

... and my mom's truck load of St. Ives Moisturizer. She goes through this stuff like us drinking water.

That's all for now! I'm super excited for the next 2 posts cos I kinda discovered a novel self-made lippie product, ha ha! Watch out for it this weekend, and thanks for reading. :)
