Collective Haul + Update

So yeah, here comes a pic heavy blogpost y'all!

Kinda.

So this is basically a collective haul that I hauled in 2 weeks or so. Kinda. And some gifts here and there. Most of them? Impulse buys, not gonna lie.

I don't remember which came first but yeah, I do distinctly remember some bits here and there~

Let's start:

Talking about Etude House Haul~ (in Two Days)

First day. Uhm. The brushes and the small pump thing is from Super Save btw.
Look at My Eyes in: Lemon Sherbet, Milk Cocoa, Silver Gray
Okay, lemme explain.
I got these three for BND$9.90.

What a steal right?? They were having a clearance sale. I decided to choose a set that was most 'me'. Well to be honest, I like the yellow and brown. But the gray----I thought it was a purple.

I don't like the gray one yet. But it might looks nice layered over a white base. Or for a smokey look.

Swatches of all three.
As you can see, the colour payout for the gray one is a bit disappointing. It's more gritty than smooth like the other two. I once ranted how Korean eyeshadows are always shimmer and no colour but this proved me wrong.

The yellow would look awesome above my 'Base Hit Kit' I think.

Second item I got was:

A Missing U! Tin
I've always wanted one, reason being I needed a place to store my magnetic eyeshadows I got from e.l.f cosmetics. Plus, it's cute :D

Lemon Sugar Hand Lotion
Now this one was an impulse buy. It was on the counter. For a dollar. Last one too...so yeah, I grabbed it and the rest was history. It's decent, it smells weirdly like lemony alcohol rather than sugary.

Oh yeah, my favourite SA, Princess Tara (I think) was there and she complimented my nails XD
I told her two of the colours were from Etude House and one of them was from TheFaceShop.

I was sad the colour wasn't available anymore. The deeper pink, because I wanted to do a giveaway with it! It's okay, I'll find a dupe!

On the same day, I also went to The Body Shop.
My sis who is studying in the UK recommended me this Deep Sleep spray, however when we went there, we found out that it was banned in Brunei o.o

Why? I guess they fear people would misuse it.

So dad got me this instead:

An oil burner and an essential oil in 'Quiet Night'
Did it work?
It did make me drowsy but not enough to sleep I guess.

Can't deny how Halloween-y it looks like.
It smells nice though.

EDIT: Nearly forgot. On the day I went there, Josesphine was there too lol. I greeted her. I asked her if she remembered me. She took a while, because I was wearing my contacts. Then I reminded her that I was the girl with the allergy LOL. She immediately remembered.

I told her that I was having hard time sleeping (Like right now) and that it's taking a toll on my skin (acne D:). She asked me and my sis to smell lavender and then it wasn't pleasant. She told us, if the lavender smells bad to us, that means we're stressed.

I swatched this lovely colour called Golden Paprika. I WAS IN LOVE.
UGH.

But then I just got something from Etude House so no.

She thanked us for still patronising The Body Shop (even after what had happened).

Well, to be fair, I've always like The Body Shop. It's just a shame I got a bad allergic reaction. She told me they've reformulated the body mist now but I haven't tried it.

My look of the day on that day. LOL
Damn, it got desaturated like hell, sorry.

Oh yeah, I also got this thing...from WW Mart:

Brush Holder/Drier
Really helpful :D Other than this, I also got two other plasticky things. I used it to put my makeup palettes and my skincare stuff.

And then something happened.

My weird self got the best of me.

I wanted MORE of the Etude House eyeshadows. At least another set.

So I got it.
Begrudgingly.

I also wanted to get the flat-top brush from Super Save for my cousin BUT it was sold out D: what. The day before that, there were FIVE or SIX more, I swear!!

Wtf.

So yeah, I got this:

Look at My Eyes in: Apricot Illusion and Vanilla Cream.
Look at My Eyes Icing in: Sugar Icing
Actually, for this set, it had the same Milk Cocoa shade but the SA was kind enough to exchange one colour since I told her I bought the same colour the day before. The manager was there too :)

I haven't opened these as I find no need to, yet. I might open the Sugar Icing, to check the texture, which the SA said is gel-like.

My favourite SA wasn't there D:


But I always kinda love Etude House SAs, they're always helpful and they smile a lot more, I noticed, than the other SAs I've encountered so far.


Yesterday, my sister gave me this dress she ordered online that didn't fit her:

Lovely colour for my skintone. Sorry for the bad photo ><
Unfortunately, it's bare-back.
She said I should either sew a chiffon based fabric to the dress or wear something else that covers it up.

It's a weird dress. Doesn't show my fat stomach that much LOL.

Hair accessory/band from SJ
I wore this today when I went out, it went well with my blue polkadot shirt:

This is true to colour I think.
But yeah, you can't really see the band:

Crappy front camera.
I didn't wear any eyeshadows today, just BB Cream and my Tutti Frutti Lip Butter.

Derp.
I actually wanted to tuck in my shirt but everyone opposed D:

Too 90s?
Actually I had my hair in two tiny buns but this was after going out LOL.
Because I didn't have time to vain before going out for sushi.

Fits my mouth okay.
I had mostly vegetable based sushi. Was craving for the veggies.

Impulse Buy
I didn't mean to get them, I swear!!!

I only wanted the nailpolish but then I saw the sugar scrub!!

But after I bought it, I realized.
What was I thinking??

It was overpriced D:

Damn. Even with member's discount it was still overpriced.

But the nailpolish colour was to die for D: It's in GR505, btw.


Last but not least~

Here are the products I use mostly when I go out:

'Base Hit Kit', 'Mischievous Marissa', Petit BB Cream in 'Clearing'
My disgusting concealer palette. (Which I do recommend, btw LOL)
Either one of the lip products and also, the Sexy Mama Translucent Powder which I still don't know how to use.
So yeah....

You know, I'm contemplating on giving away the same kind of concealer palette or the 15 colour concealer palette in the future. Which one would you prefer?

I honestly do like this one, it's not that creamy. It depends. If your skin is too dry, don't even think of this palette lol. Use a liquid concealer!

I haven't found a holy grail for my foundation routine. That's smudge-proof, oil-proof, etc.

Oh and, I wanna adopt this cat :D

Her name is Pinky!

But I might call her Pinky Marina.

Look at her surprised eyes O.O
I hope she'll be a good baby.

And that she'll make me happy.


I think that's all for an update XD;

Hope you enjoyed my collective haul post!

Yes, I can hear you.


I need to not go to shops for a month.


Damn.

So yeah, good night :D

I have an appointment tomorrow with the Endoscopy specialist.


I hope everything's fine.

Take care, everyone!!

-Nisah-

P.S: If you haven't already, join my 100th Post Giveaway here!! I'll be adding some brushes because the sponge applicators are too harsh for the eyes!
