SPECIAL HAUL POST

I completely forgot about writing reviews and stuff this past week. Too many good things happening at a go. So much so that I refuse to upload anything into the laptop. HAHA. Hence, i shall write a post solely based on materialistic qualms and newest addition to the family!

I dyed my hair again last week because those darned black roots were showing. I hate it when the black roots show up; they look ahlian. When the entire hair is dyed perfectly in ONE colour, it looks proper and "expensive" like those done in proper salons. My hair is real short, hence dying it is no biggie for me.

The super ugly roots. EW.


I got this hair dye from the last L'oreal Beauty Sale. I must mention again that I'm really happy with the fact that the sale carried lighter colours. Previously it was dark brown and what-nots. I have another one in a noticeable lighter colour. That will be for June!


AFTER! =)


No more black roots. Am I a genius or what?
That stupid wang told me that my hair looked dyed because it looked damaged. BREAK MY HEART CAN! HAHAHA. Lucky I have the treatment. So for this long weekend, I shall do intense treatment to my hair, to make it silky and smooth again! =)


I bought a lot of cosmetics last week. No, I should rephrase that. I received a lot of cosmetics last week. It was all accumulated and the things just arrive all in one go! =)

I was meeting up with the maid of an online seller and the seller is so cute. This is the piece of paper that she gave her maid in order for her maid to recognise me.


I told her I will be wearing white shirt and denim shorts, and that I have short brown hair. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

NYX US$1 SALE STUFF FINALLY HERE AFTER MONTHS!!!


Eyeshadow trio in TS26 (Velvet Blue/Ocean Frost/Space)


Also, 5 lipsticks in Sierra, Thalia, Baby, Harmonica and Peach Love.



Generally very smooth pigmentation and I noticed that they have changed the packaging of the lipstick. Some colours like Harmonica and Peach Love appear too frosty for my liking, but I think I can still work it. Sierra is a current favourite. I have no idea brownish-orange lipstick look good on me! =)

Swatch of lipstick in the order of the lipsticks mentioned above - without flash

Swatch of eyeshadow trio - without flash


With flash (I'm not a fan of this trio. The whitish blue colour is VERY chalky)


I also bought four eye pencils.

1. Glitter Mania Jumbo Pencil in OLD GOLD
2. Glitter Mania Jumbo Pencil in PERIDOT
3. Double-sided Eyeliner and Shadow in Black/Electric Blue
4. Double-sided Eyeliner and Shadow in Black/Copper

Here are the swatches without flash.


Swatches with flash. I think the glitter mania pencil is simply wax with glitters. -___-


I also got 3 more edm items. I got another Olive Medium, which was why I was planning to sell my other one. The seller was selling it at 3 for 11 bucks, so might as well just take everything right? The concealer is AWESOME! Good for lazy days.

And the blush is subtle and glittery, but very buildable. Gave me quite a nice pinkish tone after 4 swipes. I like how it can become a highlighter but then after some more swiping, the colour is more obvious and the glitters somehow get muted away. NICE.


3 Daiso blushers for $4.50! OHMYGOSH I'M IN LOVE WITH THE LAST COLOUR!!!!!! Cannot take it. Can use as both a contour powder and a blusher. So cheap yet so pigmented!!! I don't know their names because they are all written in Japanese. HAHA.

Last but not least, I got another blazer. =)
This was eh 8 bucks from Ebay I think? Previously from Valleygirl, a brand in Australia! =)


Will come back tomorrow with more personal posts with dear friends in them! =)
