Charlene & I planned the night earlier to head to the sale after seeing the FB post from Shiseido Singapore.She was excited for the Shiseido Skincare range and I, the Nars sale. It is the first NARS sale in Singapore since they've launched.
Also if I may add, Shiseido should see how Estee Lauder handles and run their sale. It is much more organized, prices are stated clearly to avoid having the people behind the counters to answer to everyone screaming and yelling on how much the products are. Also, its better to have sign and display of the products according to categories so that it is much more organized and people dont go frantics. I went to 04 Estee Lauder sale and so far, in terms of product knowledge, prices ranges and product handling, went very smooth and was very organized. Just my 2 cents.
On to my haul!
Who would ever thought, another sale was waiting for me....
On to my Watson Haul. I bought mostly essential products but I am excited for the make up stuffs though! Lets scroll down shall we?
Spot on! Start right smack with the cosmetic products! These products have 25% discounts on them and hence I enjoyed greater savings!
These are the products I bought:
- Maybelline Volume Express Mascara Cat Eyes
- Revlon Photoready BB cream in 003 Medium
- Maybelline Fashion Brow Mascara in Brown
- ZA Eyebrow pencil in Natural Brown
- Maybelline Watershine in P22
My skin is rather dry nowadays despite the humid weather. I thought I would try this cute packs and see how it works and hopefully my skin gets more supple and less dull due to all the dry skin!
Here are the swatches!
Casino Bronzer
Maybelline Watershine Lipstick in P22
NARS Funny Faces Lipstick
These are just summary of what I spoke on my video. To see more details, do watch my video!
Thanks for watching and reading all! Appreciate to all my readers who are still here reading my posts.
Been a while since i blogged on my purchases isn't it?! Well its here. I spent a total of $100+ at Watson. I needed to replenish my stuffs and i had only one opportunity to buy them. And so here it is!
I want to do a review on my highly raved and love concealer from Revlon. It is inexpensive and I had both my sisters buying and stocking this up while one of them were in Singapore. It is priced at $19.90. Get it while Watson has 20% off. Its worth while. 
If you want to see the breakdown of the before and after. Here you go! The coverage is from medium to full. It depends on how much product you apply and how many layers you put on. It blends really well and it does caked up nor settles on my lines at the end of the day. However the only con is that, it last a good 8-10 hours. Right after that, you could somewhat see your under eye appearing again. :( But other than that, i pretty much love this. its really easy to apply either you are at home or travelling. Loves the stick concept.
I definitely recommend this to ladies who just started make up or for people who loed a full coverage concealer.
Here are the glimpse of the 3 products that i got. These are photos taken with my iphone 4. Not bad huh! Been a bad blogger lately. Too busy that I got lazy wanting to tak eout my dslr from the dry box. Anyway, you can definitely guess what my favourite drugstore brand ever. Revlon.
Enough said, I got the concealer which i heard many raved upon. The photoready concealer in Medium Deep. So much for following Mac huh Revlon?! Let me guess your next darkest tone in the making- MEDIUM DARK?! haha! It is priced at $19.90 and so i got it for $15.12. This is the darkest shade amogst the 04 shades that were offered.
So below are the swatches!
This is how it looked like on my lips. The formula is rather drying which my lip lines can be seen. Hmmm i need to find ways to use this wisely.
NOT FORGETTING! Since i got my highlights last week, I have noticed dryness on my hair because obviously the highlight colour in blonde will look like you have dry and damage hair but it isn't the case.
Smooth lovin huh! Lets see how this turns out!
Initially I had a typo error. So now, OBVIOUSLY I covered up. haha! So here it is two of the lip butters which i got. They are $15.90 and you can get them at any drugstores like Watson and Guardian or John little and more. They did not bring many colours in though but lets pray they do. Here are the lip swatches.
My favourite colour gotta be Lollipop.
I have even swatched it amongst two of my limited edition MAC lipstick. And i have to tell you, it is almost close to Quick Sizzle. It does however have a richer blue undertone to it. But at least you can have something similar should you not be able to get quick sizzle. The lip butter like many other, have a wet finish.
Above are the swatches that are close to Strawberry Shortcake. Alongside with Pink Nouveau from Mac, Strawberry Shortcake has a tinge of blue tone which in return make me look darker. It does not really compliments me that well but oh well. Its nice to layer it on top of pink nouveau.
This is my FACE SWATCH with Lollipop on my lips :)
I bought it from the sale at Guardian for 20% less. So that explains the price I bought which was $5 less. I bought it in medium beige which is one shade lighter than the darkest shade. I can't remember what the shade is exactly. The powder, when swatched in stores, was pigmented. It blends really well on the back of my hand too. First impression, was definitely a GO.
The product offers SPF 19 which is not relatively high but it helps to protect you from direct sunrays. Consisting 10.5g, it will take a while for me to get through it. The sleek black packaging made it look all high-end. 
Unlike many of the powders that i have, this compact is not powdery at all. Once swiped, I don't even realized i had powder on.
I did a zoomed in of before and after foundation. And heres the ultimate result. Redness are slightly covered but not entirely. Blemishes were still seen after foundation.
This foundation did helped to mattify my face and made me look slightly brighter than usual. It also does have a pink undertone to it that sometimes bother me. It does not oxidise on my face. IN COMPARISON to my Kate mineralize powder which i love, this foundation lasted a little longer. Roughly about 8 hours. My face was less oily at the end of the day too. 
All in all, I wouldnt say i love this foundation. I dont hate it either. I am still having a mixed feeling with this. Its a love/hate relationship. I used this almost everyday and i have no complains. It does make my complexion better than without it though.
I hope this helps!
If you can remember Zee, who came for the beauty xmas party, she asked me whether i wanted anything from US since she was heading there for her holidays! (JEALOUS MUCH!) Anyway, i thought why not get the lip butters since it was not available in Singapore. So she got me those and I am so happy and i appreciate her effort to get it even though she mentioned it was a tough one to find these babies. Zee, thank you once again babe. I loved them alot!
I like how strawberry shortcake has blue sparkles in them! Yum! These are the swatches below. I only tried Strawberry shortcake this morning and i love how creamy the texture it! However it does not last that long either. Lets see how it perform in time to come :)
Next product was on sale while i was finding a sanitary pad at Guardian. And i saw this deal! it was $23.90 only! I was always swatching this powder and was wondering how it worked. So i took the risk and bought it. I will do a review on this powder because i could not find a soul who did a review on this. I shall do it to let you know my opinions :) Ive got it in medium beige which is almost close to early tan. But do not quote me on that ladies!
Hope you like this episode of picked up stuffs! Let me know if you are interested in the review for the powder as above! :)
