Mini Mid-Week Haul

I ordered some stuff from eBay and these stuff came in the mail last Thursday.

Finally got hold of Milani Luminous. I've been checking eBay everyday for a month to see if this will be available again. So when I saw this on eBay, of course I couldn't pass up the chance to buy it right away. Yey! I tried it that same day when I went to meet my friend for dinner and it's really nice. It gives you that natural flushed look with a hint of shimmer to it but not too much that it will emphasize your pores. Only drawback is that it's not that pigmented. I had to do 3 swipes of this on each cheek just to make it visible.

Also saw this SanSan mosaic blush in RSV pink. It's really cheap. You can buy this at HBC for around 110Php (less than $3). Surprisingly, it's very pigmented and I love it!

I also heard a lot of good things about Avon Magix that I've decided to give it a try. And I can definitely see what the rave is all about. I've been using it for 2 days now and I can say that I'm very satisfied with it. It has the same consisitency as MAC prep+prime eye. It really keeps my makeup on for the entire day. I swear, I didn't even have to retouch or use oil blots during my entire shift (and I work an 11-hr shift, mind you!).

The pen and the Ponds face cream are just freebies that I got. I don't really use Ponds coz it makes me breakout so I just gave it away. But I'm definitely one happy girl this week!

Start of the Week Haul

I've always wanted to try Elianto's baked blusher so when hubby went to Makati last Monday to drop off some documents at his office (he was on leave that day), I've decided to tag along. Of course, I headed right away to the makeup section of Landmark and bought some necessities like Nivea's makeup remover, SkinWhite deo, this PH care mini set (which are so cute!), nivea moisturizer, nail polishes which have really catchy names like coal-lin farrell, greenier castillo, etc, and this really cheap brush set. I also got this bag of cotton rounds for removing makeup.

Then I head off to Elianto's stall (or was it booth?) and checked out their blushes. I decided to get the Pale Pink shade and I'm really happy with it. It just looks like a natural glow on my face when I use it and it really stays on unlike other blushes I've tried. I still need to retouch after 4 hrs though but that's good enough for me since it's very handy to carry around.

It was a good way to start the week, eh?
