Am i dead? Or am IiIii DeAaAdDdD! I got yet another haul! This one is a well worth haul. I-LOVE-IT! Super excited with whatever i have purchased. Initially, I was told by Sarah from FacesBySarah on the sale! She wanted me to go with her, which sadly i cant because i was way further then the west area. So, when she posted her stuff she got, i called my bestie and we immediately head there. She was on 100km/hr. Haha! Anyway, here is what i have gotten for myself plus my mom and some extras....smell a contest huuh...hahah! The sale comprises of perfumes and cosmetics which many of you alreay knew from rainnydays and sarah. :) So here is what i got.

An update on what great Fun june was! Its GREAT SINGAPORE SALE! I had been naughty. Crazily Hauling from make up to clothes to acessories! Hahaha! But i manage to sell most of my make up away too! So, kudos to me (trying to redeem myself) and thanks to whoever who bought from me. Plus I get to attend a fabulous mac workshop with such lovely companion!! Received great goodies and yes, hauling again. Though i know this was prolly the last month i could splurge, I went all out. Lust got the better of me. And I managed to have an additional of 6 followers this month! Thank you EVERYONE for following me. I feel so much better now that I am blogging. Been really stress about the spree I managed to do. But I truly am so happy with the response! I am doing much better now with the support of my readrs. I love you guys. No joke..really2...Thank you all! So yeah, here are my JUNE FAVS!!!

1) Mac MSF in Brunette: Got this at the MAC sale. And i used it ever since, as a bronzer. Now i know the wonders of bronzers. :)

2) MAC Golden Bronze Loose Powder: I LOVE THIS! I got so much compliments from this claiming that i look super fresh n glowing! Especially my mom, shes a fan. hehe!

3) MAC Satin Lipstick in Brave New Bronze: Although this dries the heck out of my lipstick, it truly is the perfect colour for my lips. You can really tell I use it alot. I apply my lip balm followed by this lipstick and its just amazing. Love the neutral nude colour it is giving. Loves~

4) Hazeline Snow Moisturiser: Ever since, i ran out of neutrogena moisturiser, i went back to my old moisturiser. The hazeline snow. This was initially used byu my Grandma right before i was born. And her skin would always be so soft and moist for me to kiss on. So, ever since then i started using it a couple of years back. Not only it is inexpensive but it does wonders with it.  It was often called as  the "cooling" cream for the face. But little did everyone know, its a great moisturiser too. No tight feeling, and it is the only moisturiser that i do not have to dap off the excess "wetness" of it. Loves it.

5) Maybelline Gel Liner in Black: I love the texture. I have never really tried gel liner. But for the first time, I felt a whole new revolution of lining my eyes. Its soft, doesnt fade or smudge. It looks and feels great as it glides on my eyes. Truly my new best friend.

6) Watson Hair straightener: I got this from a colleague before she left our company. And i tried ever since. I wouldn't say this is a fantastic hair straightener, but I wouldn't claim that its not good either. It does its job and the heat was scary initially, leaving smokes on my hair. But it does its job perfectly, leaving my hair straight and soft throughout the day. :)

7) L'oreal Studio Hot Straight Straightening Cream: Without this, my hair would never be as soft and straight and long lasting as it can be.

8) MAC Fix Plus + Rose: This earns my second month favourite for the fact that i spray after washing my face, before i apply moisturiser to sleep. And after make up. It enhances the whole make up look. Plus great scents. Im going to miss it. My must haves.

9) MAC 181SE: I got this just cuz i need it to buffer my bronzing powder. This is so soft, it needs the credits in the world. No fall outs even when i wash. Loves :)

I also went to see the Graphic Garden Collection. See what the hype is about. Anyway, to begin with, there are no lookbook. Lookbook is a set which has bronzers, 2 eyeshadows, a 181SE brush with liglass and more. Its a make up kit. So, its not available in Singapore. Back to the product. The packaging are amazing! Great graphics. Black and white floral and mac prints all over really makes it more classy yet fun at the same time. Let me start of with the most exciting part, which is the palette. They consist of 6 colours in it. If you see retail_therapy, she bought the fresh cut palette. The swatches are amazing. And they are pigmented. I do adore their packaging though. However, i think the colours are abit weak. For the fresh palette, i could easily have my spiced chocolate quad do up a similar look the palette could provide. The colours are really not something I would definitely go down and grab. Even the graphic garden as well. Its great to have a smokey eye with it. But its not a need for me. Its nice to have in your collection. But I am still contemplating whether to get it or not. Hmmm... I need to think. But so far, with the packaging standards, i won't mind spending on it. I need to reconsider this.

The brushes are mass produce. So, It is obvious that it is not as soft as the long handle brushes which are hand made. They are basic brush with a nice make up bag. And also the lip kit comes with 2 lipstick and one lipglass. I am not a lip person. So, i skip that as well.  I hope it helps you further to head down and swatch it for yourself. The testers are pretty much dried up, which makes swatching unjustified. So, yeah. let me know what do you think of this collection yah? :)

Am i making you girls go crazy? CUZ I AM NOW! To know retail_theraphy isnt interested on the eyeshadows, wasn't really suprising because I am not as well. But i refuse to make any decisions. I want to swatch it for myself. Look and adore it THEN i get what I most needed or want! ahaha! SO here are the REALISTIC image thanks to :http://feelingsofine.blogspot.com/

Love nectar lustreglass & The freckletone lipstick swatch :)

Overall, I am really happy on what i bought. It was not beyond my budget, so its good. I walked out happy and no regrets...ahahah SUCCESSFULLY! :)

BNB is brave new bronze. It is the most highly raved lipstick I have known from this ugly collection. I was finding high and lows for a great nude lipstick for myself and found this great lipstick. Lets not talk about the packaging because its really overated,

This is almost close to Viva Glam ll. Both are nudes but Viva Glam ll has more pink undertone whicle BNB has more peachy undertone to it.  I have work this for 3 days straight. And i have to say I LOVE IT! It is the most "natural" nude i have come across! My bf loves it. It has a very nice subtle nude look which goes well with my skin colour. Doesn't make me look very hook-erish. You know how nude lipstick may make yyou look like a hooker~...But this is so gorgeous. I feel gorgeous when I wear it. I have never used a lipstick for more than a day. But because BNB looks so great, i wore it EVERYDAY! Even when i go out for like 10 mins. Love it.

Packaging: 2/5

Product: 5/5

Would I buy it again? YES PLS!!!!

Now, I am making this review as fast as i can so that you ladies could go grab it soon while the collection is out. I want to go get one more to stock up because i am afraid of running out of it! It retails at SGD$28. And also, my opnions are based on my NC42 skin and above yah? But I saw alot of fairer skin people who wears it look sooo gorgeous too! If you have it, tell me what you think about it ya?

XOXO

We had so much fun that instead of watching movies and slumbering the night off, we ended up sleeping...Was so tired from being so hyped up about this makeover. eheheheh!... Here are your viewing pleasure...

She will always help herself with the make up everytime she comes. She will help herself, and swatched every product she saw even when she hav seen it before.hahah!

THE MAKINGS!!!:)

Isnt she gorgeous?!!! Well, shes already talking about getting married. This would be a preview make up for her. Hehehe! She gave me 2 years to buck up and do her make up on her wedding day....URGHHH!.. I applied falsies on her and she LOVES IT! She claims it looks rather slutty...and yes she loves sluttiness...ahahah! She always wear gold eye make up. So, I thought her on how to use the colours which was untouchable ever since she bought it. I proof her wrong, by using purples on her eyes. It really tones her down.. She look pretty and nicer..in a way..ahhaha!

Yes, I know. I found a dupe which cost much more than my main product. But just in case, if you already have either or, do not get anything which is duplicable. You will just feel like such a bummer having dupes in your collection. So here it is :)

I love both of them I have to say. Nyx seems to be a very natural lip colour for me which brightens up my face. But it wears off so fast! It takes less than 45 minutes that I need to touch up again and again and again. But with Revlon, not only my lips are so moisturised, but its a very long-wearing lipstick. Hands down. 

moshi moshi! I have gotten two tray for my MAKE up storage Neeeehh~...here they are...$2 each and VOIUILA!! TRansformation BEGINS!!! HAIK!

If you needed to ask me anything, feel free too write yah?
