Etude House: Soft Touch Auto Lipliner + a message to Hope (my Sigma winner)

I have a few lipliners and most of them are in the neutral/nude shade. I have a couple of non-neutral ones but I thought I'd add more. I especially got excited during the 20% off sale of Etude House. I found the Soft Touch Lipliner and I thought it was freaking cheap. Regular price was PHP 98.00 and I got it 20% less.

I only bought one. I wanted to hoard more honestly, but they only had two shades left. And the other one is yet another nude shade. So I opted for this one instead.

Kate: Eye Makeup Remover

I am new with Kate products, but I think I've heard about it before. Kate is a brand under Kanebo and it carries a wide range of cosmetics that are priced lower than Kanebo and is specifically targeted for the younger market.

I got me this bottle of Kate Eye Makeup Remover from a Donki store when I visited Japan. I got it because we transferred from Osaka to Tokyo and they had to ship our luggage. Unfortunately, I forgot to carry my make up remover. But I was lucky enough to have spotted the Donki store and found this.

Maybelline: Volum' Express Magnum Mascara

I think I've been kind of lucky with every makeup that I've been trying lately. I know I've been mentioning a lot of Holy Grail products in my last few posts. And now I tell ya', here is yet another product that made it to my hit list! The Maybelline Volum' Express Magnum Mascara (waterproof)!

I have stubborn lashes that points straight downwards and most often than not, at the end of the day, my lashes would point back down even if I have curled them. In all honesty, I've never been really that crazy about mascaras. I guess it's because I don't really see such a dramatic difference when I apply it and nothing seems to hold the curls up. I have tried mascaras like Covergirl Lashblast. It didn't hold my lashes up either. I know that it worked for so many other girls, but sadly it didn't work for me.

I chanced upon Maybelline Volum' Express Magnum Mascara (waterproof) during a sale. And even if I was on a shopping ban, I got it on a whim because it was on a 10% OFF promo and from the original price of PHP 399, I got it for PHP 359 (around USD $8).

I also thought I needed to get a waterproof mascara for the wedding I'm going to attend to. Just because I wasn't really satisfied with the current one that I am using, which is the Clinique Lash Doubling Mascara. Aside from not being able to hold my curls up, I also felt it wasn't waterproof.

Make Up For Ever: Aqua Eyes (Black)

Hi everyone! I couldn't wait to do a post about the MUFE Aqua Eyes eyeliner. I know that this product have been reviewed a lot, but I thought I'd still share how it worked for me.

I got this at Sephora from my last Singapore trip. It was quite expensive (couldn't remember the exact price) but I purchased it anyway because I've been wanting to try this for soo long. And me being someone who can't live without eyeliner, I couldn't resist.

Eye Brow Stencil from Saizen

I found this eye brow stencil from Saizen a few days ago. The stencil consists of four shapes: Elegant, Classic, Delicate and Glamorous. I wasn't exactly convinced at first if I should get this or not. I didn't know if I really needed it in the first place. And it costs PHP 85, which I thought was expensive for a piece of plastic.

My bf was with me that time and I asked if I should get it or not. He told me it could be useful and that I should just get it. And yes, I bought it and I have tried and tested it for a couple of times already.

Etude House Haul

I took advantage of the ongoing sale at Etude House. All items 20% off! So here's a quick haul post.

When I first heard of the sale. I was kind of sad because I've been spending a lot lately and I promised I won't be buying makeup stuff for a while. All items 20% off is tempting. So I was torn between hauling and not hauling... Well, I asked my bf for advice. lol. And he told me to just limit myself with a certain amount that I can spend. I thought he was going to stop me, but I think his advice was good enough. He is very understanding of my shopping habits. Haha. Anyway, I decided I will not spend more than a thousand pesos.

Did I overspend or not?

Urban Decay: The Black Palette

Products with nice packaging always gets my attention. I sometimes end up getting stuff that I don't even know if I will ever use. But anyway, the same thing with this Urban Decay: The Black Palette. I got it because of the packaging. How it's all black, dark and edgy looking. I was skeptical before I purchased this. I thought I won't be able to use this palette that much because I usually go for neutral colors when it comes to eyeshadow. But then, I reasoned out to myself that I can use this too. Like if I go to concerts, and other events. :D So I went ahead and got it.
