And finally, I decided to dedicate a post to my undeclared beauty hauls & gifts of 2011. Serves as a "reminder" somehow. To "remind" me of my ever-growing beauty stash :x

Part 2 will be coming up soon (all skincare products I think)...

Any review request? Let me know (:

Using mostly TFS (The Face Shop) nail colors. $2.90 each, cheap cheap :x You can get it even cheaper in JB!

• TFS Nail Color GR502
• TFS Nail Color YL702 (I had trouble applying this :/ Super streaky max!)
• TFS Nail Color PK106
• TFS Nail Color BL606

• OPI Black Shatter (Not easy to apply! Kinda clumpy...... Or izzit just me? >.<)
• TFS Nail Base Coat
• Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat (I've to stress again this is the best-est! favorit-est! ever.)

 

Playing with colors. My nails look like M&Ms eh. So colorful :p

"I dropped my M&Ms."

*Shattered*

Kinda messy. But I like. Aiya, I'm not a PRO anyway :D Thanks for looking!

I've been reaching out to colored eyeliners recently. For this LOTD, no eyeshadow was used. Everything was kept simple, with just merely 1 coat of mascara. I'm not pleased with the foundation I used; made my face super fair (in a bad way). Hence, the lack of full-face photo.

The products I used for this LOTD:

• Silkygirl Funky Eyelights Pencil 10 Cool Blue
  
• Majolica Majorca Customize Sword Cut BR771
• Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil (Covet)
  
• KATE Eyebrow Color LB-1
  
• Melliesh Cheek Color 02 Baby Peach
  
• The Face Shop White Tree EX White Two Way Pact SPF30 PA++ NB23
  
• Shills Magic Foundation EGF 5 in 1 Foundation Mousse
• ZA Cutie Curl Volume Mascara

The name of this LOTD came into my mind instantly when I was thinking of what to call it.

Somehow there's a clash in the colors used? :3

Photos were taken after more than 10 hours, with me blotting only twice.

Products used:

• KATE Dual Blend Eyeshadow GN-1
  
• Canmake Metallic Eyes (shimmery golden brown, which I thought was olive green initially)
• Missha Perfect Cover BB Cream SPF42 PA+++ No.21
• Stage Wonderluxe Lipstick 01 Naughty Nude
• KATE Long Gel Mascara
  
• Majolica Majorca Customize Sword Cut BR771
  
• The Face Shop White Tree EX White Two Way Pact SPF30 PA++ NB23
  
• KATE Eyebrow Color LB-1
  
• Melliesh Cheek Color 02 Baby Peach
  
• Silkygirl Funky Eyelights Pencil 10 Cool Blue
  
• Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil (Covet)
• Stage Kohl Pencil 01 Karma
  

 

*Note: Products highlighted are sponsored for review purposes.

And so, there's really a distinct difference not using the KATE Mascara Base :s

It was a day out with Jones and Chantana nearly 2 weeks ago :D Yeah, we had fun hanging out!

Late lunch (@ 313 food court. I had bak kut teh, my brunch btw), shop around, dessert (@ Cold Stone Creamery), movie (Sucker Punch which sucks, at least to me) and lastly, SUPPER (@ Xin Wang Hong Kong Café)!

OH.. We also got our goodies from Jones, which she kindly helped us to CP from HK. Thanks so much ♥

Dessert time @ Cold Stone Creamery. I wasn't really WOW-ed over this. The same goes for 'em. We find it too sweet overall. Nothing fantastic I guess. Uh disappointed much. Hmm prolly I shall try other Signature Creations next time.

I ordered the Founder's Favorite (combination of Sweet Cream Ice Cream, Pecans, Brownie, Fudge, and Caramel).

They ordered German-chökolätekäke (combination of Chocolate Ice Cream, Pecans, Coconut, Brownie, and Caramel).

Chantana's funny "scary" face vs Jone's sweet "smiley" face.

So many people queuing >.<

*Note: Products highlighted are sponsored for review purposes.

It was a mini pre-birthday celebration at a restaurant/bar, located at Boat Quay.

The Dallas Cheesecake. An all-time classic favourite. Cheesecake topped with fresh strawberries and sauce. $10, on the house btw.

And so, we were at Dallas.

Chocolate Brownie. Moist chocolate brownie with a big luscious scoop of vanilla ice cream. $10. I thought I tasted rum =.= Oh well, the ice-cream was de-li-cious :d~

I didn't really like the strawberry margarita. The one at Cafe Iguana is seriously heavenly and I love happy hour deals ! Best margarita I've had so far !

We had the Dallas Platter. A combination of Dallas wings, chicken and cheese quesedillas, salt & pepper calamari. $30 for 4 pax.

Cheese quesedillas were pretty good. My 1st time eating these. There's salsa sauce, the greenish thingy is avocado sauce and dunno-what sauce x:

Salt & pepper calamari tasted good but personally, I think Modesto's ones tasted better.

Hmm the chicken wings look rather normal but in fact, they tasted much better than I expected. Looks are deceiving eh.

Baby Back Berry (Full Rack) $32. Slowly braised pork ribs served with red cabbage slaw and potato wedges.

Not bad. The meat was soft and tender. I must really say that I do love the berry sauce, interesting mix of sweet and savoury taste :d~ The portion was just right for us.

Classic Beer Battered Fish and Chips. $23. Slices of white fish dipped in beer batter and fried to golden brown. Served with red cabbage slaw and Dallas Fries. Very normal, didn't WOW me at all.

Overall, a rather good place to chill and relax.

 

Some camwhorin' photos we took.

My LOTD using L'oreal Chrome Intensity Eye Palette (Timeless Green). And, did you actually notice the change in my hair color ? Yes, black now.

Eyes:

• L'oreal Chrome Intensity Eye Palette (Timeless Green)
• L'oreal Paris HIP Color Chrome eyeliner (Black Shock)
  
• Anna Sui Eyeliner Pencil WP 900

Jaded, pretty much.

It's been a whole week since my last post. Now, on to Part 2 of my Undeclared Hauls & Gifts 2010.

This was a Dior sale haul, which coincided with Shiseido sale haul (not posted as yet). A day of massive hauling, indeed. I almost grabbed ALL the Dior quints =.= Well, almost. It was really hard to choose which to get !! And the price was IRRESISTIBLE !!

A better representation of the colors.

059 Pearl Glow (Limited Edition).

009 Sky Glow.

Got myself 2 lippies as well. Rouge Dior Replenishing Lip Color 858 Red Scene and 434 Interview Pink.

I knew I had to get my hands on this after reading Lotus Palace blog.

Something from Kanebo ?

What could it be for $118 ?!

Soap & Glory The Righteous Butter smells freaking awesome I tell ya !

 

Kinokuniya time.

Disappointed buy. agnès b. canvas tote bag. It actually comes with a red heart keychain which I forgot to take photo of.

Awesome buy. Super kawaii HbG bag. Many may find it kiddy. I don't care what others think, as long as I like it (:

Even the lil' HbG keychain is irresistibly kawaii max !! Agree ? :p

I got myself another Fred Perry tote bag ! Their tote bags are always well-made IMO.

Another disappointing buy. I don't like this YSL bag. Not really well-made IMO. Photos are deceiving !!

Taiwan Beauty magazine Oct'10 issue featuring Elva Hsiao.

Women's Weekly Nov'10 with free Nivea Sparkling White Whitening Day Care.

Bazaar Oct'10 with free $20 Häagen-Dazs voucher and a gold ice-cream spoon (not in photo).

Elle Nov'10 with free agnès b. makeup pouch.

Bought this from Vion, which I forgot all about it =.= HK New Monday magazine with free Adidas 2-way tote bag (purple).

Paul & Joe floral pouch set which was free with Japanese magazine purchase. Well-made, which makes a good buy !

 

Random hauls.

Bought 'em at Guardian. Now, these are the old packaging BRTC BB Creams.

I bought BRTC Protect Multiplex Balm SPF20 PA++ & Jasmine Water BB Cream SPF30.

Bought these Elianto pearl shine eyeshadows during a sale.

(TWO TO TANGO, ELECTRA-FIED, ULTRA VIOLET, CHARISMA, PARAKEET)

(PROTEGE, BONDAGE, 1492, COUGAR)

After MONTHS & MONTHS of WAITING & WAITING, I finally get my SMH eyeshadows. BUT NOT ALL. FRESH, according to her was OOS. I do understand that SMH customer service is really THAT bad. But then again, many had problems with the person who conducted the spree. Some of the common problems were: not able to get back refunds despite numerous reminders, unable to contact (be it thru' sms-es, emails, calls, PM-s !!). I can't help but wonder if I'll get any refund for my OOS e/s or will the e/s arrive safely in prolly months' time ?? Well, I'm THAT accommodating that I traveled all the way to the west to collect the e/s instead of opting for mail. It was my 1st time joining OnSugar spree and it wasn't a good one. I believe there're others who have worse experience(s) as compared to mine. Oh well ..

Bourjois Khol & Contour eye pencils (gray, ultra black, blue).

Fasio Chandelier Shine Eyes SV-5. Lotus Palace awesome review, swatches and EOTD !

Now, you know beauty blog reading is sooo dangerous ! BUT it's sooo gratifying and addictive much !

MJ Brow Customize Super Slim BR782 refills.

Nature Republic Ice Jelly Primer SPF28++ Melon - Hydrating. I love the melon-y smell very much and it has a unique pudding texture.

I had to buy this coz I forgot to bring my powder out on that fateful day =.= Well, no regrets coz I simply love this new ZA Skin Beauty Two-Way Foundation SPF20 PA++ refill ! Shade 21 though it's tad fair for me but it looks more natural after oxidization. The powder is really fine and it helps to keep my makeup looking fresh and shine-free for hours.

Nivea Angel Star Body Soft Soufflé.

Really looks like yoghurt eh :3 And, I'm very in love with the raspberry scent !! Smells heavenly ..

Got Poshe' Fast Drying Basecoat &Super-Fast Drying Topcoat& as well as Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat from Nail Vibe SG. Hazel's recommendation (:

Get your facts right before commenting ! And pls, I had to COMMENT on the blog post just to let her know which item I wanted (Majolica Majorca Jeweling Eyes GR 791)though it was stated to PM her (I whatsapp-ed her at 1st, which she deemed unfair to the other chosen winner).

Any queries/requests whatsoever, feel free to comment (:

Here's Part 2 of my dated collective hauls. CLICK HERE for Part 1.

I bought these Sally Hansen Diamond Strength nail polishes at Watsons since there was a promotion going on ($9.90 instead of the usual $13.90). Now, you can still purchase at this discounted price as the promotion is back ! Oh I especially love the shimmery one as it gives my nails a super high-shine shimmery finish (think gel nails). My gf who's super good in doing nails, loves this as well :p

Product Description (website):

• Diamond Strength: Instantly bonds with nails to provide a shatterproof, diamond hard protective coating that virtually ends splitting, cracking and peeling.
• Diamond Shine: Light-refractive diamond particles go beyond ordinary lacquer to produce a multi-dimensional faceted shine.
• Diamond Wear: Long-lasting color is chip-resistant, fade-resistant and waterproof.
• Special Ingredients: Exclusive micro-diamond formula guarantees a brilliant, multi-faceted shine!
• Available in 36 shiny shades.

 

Majolica Majorca Eyes Reset Gel is a fragrance-free eye makeup remover that dissolve and remove any heavy makeup & stubborn waterproof mascara effectively and effortlessly. No additional cleansing required as it is formulated with treatment ingredients such as Vitamin E derivative and macadamia nut oil, which conditions the sensitive skin around eye area. This retails for only $9.90. I'll do a mini review soon (:

I've been a regular user of Neutrogena sheet masks and I love to purchase them @ Watsons for $1.95 (promotional price) each. Now they've revamped the mask design ! New 3D stretchable design, which can fit our face shape & contours perfectly. Sounds really good eh. Anyone tried yet ?

Another new addition to my nail polish collection, Sally Hansen Insta-Dri nail polish (Jumpin' Jade).

Product description (website): One stroke application. One coat coverage. Perfectionist Brush^TM delivers a fast, flawless application that dries to a shiny finish in 60 seconds. It dries in 60 seconds. Toluene, DBP, and Formaldehyde free. Special Ingredients: Exclusive formula with Flexiglass^TM Complex for Strength and Brilliant Shine. Available in 32 irresistible shades !

Sana Make Essence Concealer. Cute packaging. Hmm I'll use it for my dark eye circles.

Updated: CLICK HERE (This concealer is meant to conceal wrinkles, not dark eye circles. Blur me, bought the wrong one. Thanks Anonymous Bosch !)

I've gotten this Ossion Mild Touch Detox Bubble Mask sample from The Sample Store. Never heard of this brand before. Btw it's from Korea and it sounds really promising, judging from what I've read on the website. Anyway, shall try it out !

CLEO magazine freebies (: Lancome Genifique Youth Activating Concentrate sachet sample and Whisper Nights Super Long Overnights Pad. Hmm I've tried the pad and what I can say is it's really SUPER LONG !! I felt as if I was wearing adult diaper (mini version), super uncomfortable -__-" I'll never buy this for sure.

This Sana PorePutty Make Up Base SPF17/PA++ was bought at John Little. It claims to create even-looking skin, by covering the visible pores. Foundation application is made easier. It contains silicon and sebum-absorbing powder. Is it really that good ?

Ignore the $4.90 price tags. I bought these @ 2 for $1 !! ;D

The store-wide $2 store, Daiso ! I bought this to hold my eyeliners.

These are for storing makeup/nail polishes ?

Hmm these are either for brushes or more eyeliners.. or prolly mascaras ?

I bought these to complement my face cleansing. I haven't use the wash net yet. The face cleansing brush bristles seem to be a lil' harsh on my skin. Maybe I'll just use it to brush my neck area only.

Compact laundry bag, I really need this (lol).

I love this Tohato Caramel Corn snack alot !! Do try it, and get addicted like I do :p I can easily finish one whole packet on my own.

Organic Cotton rounds and pads from The Body Shop. They retail for about $2+ or $3+ I think, very affordable !

Hmm more cleansing stuff ! I think my face is very "dirty" :x The Body Shop Soft Facial Cleansing Sponge and Facial Buffer.

I saw this The Body Shop Autumn Leaves Compact on several blogs.. and I got tempted.. I wanted to get both initially but I end up getting just this Berry one. The swatches are beautiful, remind me of MAC MSF. Hmm but.. one thing I notice about The Body Shop makeup, they break too easily ! This was what happened to my bronzer compact and eyeshadow :,( Or is it just me ?

I bought this pair of fake lashes @ $4.90 I think, after I saw the salesgirl wearing 'em. Sooo nice !

I like to buy nail polishes at The Face Shop as the price is very affordable $2.90 ! I've almost every color available :p

I used to dislike yellow color. Hmm I still dislike orange color though. Very random, I know hahas xD

Base nail polish. Shit, I forgot I've one at home :/

Canmake Colorful nail polish, my favourite pink ! See the pretty shimmers !

Beauty magazine from Kinokuniya. It helps that I love reading Chinese :D

CLEO magazine. I don't really like this particular month magazine front cover color combination and featured celebrity :S

It's a Japanese magazine 'SWEET' and I can't read hahas xD

Quite a small but pretty Anna Sui bag.

I like the Anna Sui pouch color & floral design. Both are well-made, considering they are freebies.

Women's Weekly with free Phyto Restructuring Mask. I simply love good deals like this, plus I enjoy reading this magazine ! Usually, I'll twitter about it when I chance upon magazine freebie(s).

I got this Biore Makeup Remover (for Eye & Lip) sample but yet to try yet. So far its reviews are good, from what I've gathered from most beauty blogs.

More haul posts to be up. Any queries, feel free to ask me :D

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

 

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
