Happy Lunar New Year!

hey all, just a short note to say i'm still alive! RoaR! Happy Lunar Tiger New Year.. =)

I'm back!

Hey all.. I'm finally back. Wanted to share my haul at Sasa recently. Silk Whitia masks going for $1.95 each. Usual price is $5.90. Have not tried this brand before but read some reviews that it's quite good?

Got some elf liquid eyeliners which was a really good deal. Usually each product cost $6.90 but now it's buy 2 for $9.90. I think these liquid eyeliners are really worth it. I didn't get to test it though and have not opened them. Shall post a swatch about them some time.


With any purchase at Sasa I am also entitled to buy the mini version of the Make Up Remover Eye & Lip from Maybelline. Here's a photo of it compared to the regular size. This is a really good eye makeup remover especially for Maybelline mascaras.

Saw this recycled Christmas tree at Bugis Junction, which has been decorated with hearts for Valentine's Day. So frugal huh? I think the tree is a bit cheesy though..haha


Have not celebrated Valentine's for the past 2 years..Boo.

Happy 2010!

Happy New Year everyone! Hope you had a great celebration. Mine was ok and i wasn't too happy rushing into the new year. I don't really know why. I'm back in Malaysia again and here's my post of my buys last week.

My haul from Watsons

Saw this interesting mask and thought of trying it. Have not used it though.
A cheap nail polish for RM2. Color looks pretty in the bottle but it's blah when applied to nails.

The half pack left from the Nivea Visage mask that I used. It's not that great as it was like a cream type of mask. The instruction was to spread it on your face for 15 to 20 mins and to wipe off with a cotton pad. I always thought this type of mask needs to be rinsed off. I followed the instruction but I feel this mask doesn't really work for me. I'm thinking of what to do with this remaining half pack.

There is a Elianto shop in my town, which is quite surprising considering how small my town is. I learned from the SA that the shop was a franchise instead of a branch.

Here's my Elianto haul:Clockwise from top: Eyeshadow brush, pen eyeliner, Rimmel eyeliner (this is actually from my Watsons haul), lippy, 2 nail polishes

The light purple nail polish only cost RM1 if you purchase any item from the shop. I can't remember if it needs to be above a certain amount.


The lippy in a chocolatey color (I forgot what's the name and the lippy is not with me right now).
When i went out of the mall, I saw the swatch on my hand and the color kinda surprised me because it was orangy instead of chocolatey.


When i got home, i did one more swatch and this is with flash.
Without flashWhat do you think of the color? It's still ok right? I have not tried it on my lips, hopefully it won't be too orangy.

I really feel i need to have a break from all my hauling as there's some matter at home which will put a strain on my finance. Sigh.. I really hope it will be alright soon. I am too tired and stressed out to handle it. Sorry for the sudden outburst but I just need to let it out. =) Thanks for reading!

Mary Kay Samples

Here are some samples I got from my aunt, who is an agent for Mary Kay cosmetics in M'sia.

I think this brand is quite big in the US, not sure about that. You can visit their website here.

Mineral Eye Color in Dusty Lilac

I thought the size would be quite big but when I opened it, it's just as below:

Close up of the samples:

Mineral Eye Color in Denim Frost

Mineral Eye Color in Cinnabar

Mineral Eye Color in Moonstone

Mineral Cheek Color in Sunny Spice. Looks quite dark, no?Sorry I forgot to do the swatches. Should I do another post on it? Are you guys interested to see?

Side note, some gifts I got from my colleagues for Christmas. I wonder why are they all in purple? I've never told them I like purple though. Funny! In fact, I like pink. =) Maybe I give out the vibes that I am a purple kind of girl.

From left, Marks & Spencer's Hand & Body Lotion in Passion Flower, Gap Dream Body Spray & Elizabeth Arden Green Tea Exotic EDT Spray. I especially love the EA spray. Such a lovely smell =)

World of GWPs

Sorry for the delay in posting. Had a terrible Christmas eve =p I was supposed to return to M'sia on eve night but the Causeway was super jam packed! I had to u-turn and the whole journey took me 4 hours just to get from Bugis to Woodlands and back to Bugis. Boo! Anyway, I'm safely home now in M'sia.

Moving on to the magazines GWPs that i mentioned in previous post. Here they are!

Cleo magazine came with 3 masks


Chic magazine came with a Julie Hewett lip balm.


The color looks orange but it's colorless when applied


L'Officiel came with a miniature fragrance from Lulu Catagnette and a mobile phone charm.

Cute bottle but so-so smell.


Nonno with Suzy's Zoo fluffy pouch.


Spring with Hello Kitty make up bag! <3

I did some hauling at home here in M'sia. Shall try to post it soon. Enjoy Boxing Day sales if there is any at your place. =)

Random Pics

Hope you are not surprised with this pics post, i uploaded it from my mobile phone. Below is a pic of a Barbie bedroom display that I saw at Raffles City.


This one is a random pic i took of Fullerton Hotel's Christmas deco. =)

Merry Christmas!

Hey all. Long time no post. Work has been holding me up and was busy doing Christmas shopping as well. Hehe. I jumped on the bandwagon and got the Esprique Precious Illuminate Fantasy Collection. =) It was retailing at S$48 at BHG Bugis, quite a good deal me thinks. I guess most of you must have seen the collection on other beauty blogs.

I got my mom a set of the Pleasures perfume from Estee Lauder. It came with a body lotion but I didn't take a picture of it. Also got my dad a perfume, he loves perfume. He can finish using a bottle in average 2 months time. There was a promotion at the Davidoff counter, a new perfume called 'Silver Shadow' or something like that retailing at S$69 for a 100ml bottle. The SA was kind enough to include these samples below for me. =)

From left, JLo Glow, JLo Deseo, CK Eternity

From left, CK In2u, JLo Live Luxe and JLo Live.

When I was going through my stuff, I found an unopened eyeshadow that I got from Etude House, Petit Darling Eyes in PK002 Snow Pink, maybe like a month ago. LOL, treasures I have that I don't know about. On the right is the Majolica Majorca Honey Pump Gloss in BE211.



The color looks yummy and it's discounted at S$6.90 from the original price of S$9.90.

However, the texture is quite thick and sticky. Nude with shimmers.

Lovely packaging of the Etude House ES

It has four little hearts imprinted on it, can you see?

Swatch with flash

Without flash. You can't really see the pink color but in real life it's really nice.
Side tracking, a lovely little note book i bought from Forever Friends.
I'll be posting more later, about some GWPs i got from magazines. Stay tuned! =)
