Blogsale: Nailpolish

This will the be the first part of my blogsale.
Prices will be in BND, I'm not thinking of shipping it outside of Brunei since they're nailpolishes.

If it's makeup (which I WILL be selling, new and pre-loved ones), I will only ship to Malaysia.

Anyway~

-All the nailpolishes have been swatched.
-Used once or twice. 
-Usage shown on some.

I don't have the swatch for Sheer Shit because well, it's very sheer. It's like a very pale white, that's just so sheer. On your nails you can barely see anything but it definitely hides your nailcolour if that makes sense! If no one wants it, of course I'll keep it lol.

Leave a comment or e-mail me at nurulhanisah203@gmail.com if you're interested :D

Preferably an e-mail so I can directly contact you back!

I'll most probably add to this, maybe.

Take care!

Procrastination Haul

Hi guys, sorry I haven't been posting a lot.
Been thinking of it, but I couldn't bring myself to.

Yesterday something kinda "traumatic" happened to me.

Okay.
It was a haircut. An ugly one.

It was my fault though. I guess I'll talk about that next time. Hopefully tomorrow?

Anyway, let's get onto the haul. Mostly bought.

Recently, my sis came back from the UK and brought with her, something I ordered last year. Yeah. It's last year's stuff. It's not recent. I haven't been buying anything. Just two things, because I was looking for a powder to replace my BB Creams.

I have stopped using my BB Creams, I guess I might have a blogsale up soon.

Moving on...

I got a Two Way Cake from Pixy. My friend suggested it.
I decided to get two shades. I've only tried the Yellow Beige.
It is too light for me but I think I can use it for highlighting.

I also tried using it wet, it did not look good. LOL.

Pixy Two Way Cake Perfect Fit

But then again I didn't really use it properly I think. It's not too pricy either. I bought the refill because I figured that I didn't need a full compact. I kinda want to get a Z-Palette one day!

My sis got me some stuff from The Body Shop. The Banana Shampoo and Conditioner. I think I have too many bottles of the shampoo and I only have ONE conditioner >_>; Brunei doesn't carry the conditioner which is a bummer!

The shampoo on its own smells delightful but somehow it's drying :/

She also got me a Deep Sleep/Quiet Night Dreamy Pillow & Body Mist. I just noticed the name was different tonight lol. The one I got from KK is called Quiet Night. HM.

The Body Shop Mini Haul

She also brought back the MUA stuff I ordered last year.

I am on a makeup ban so I dunno how I feel about it lol.

I bought them last year okay.

MUA Nail Quake Polishes

One of them will be in my blogsale.

MUA Makeup Haul

I tried the MUA Pro-Brow Kit and I really like it!

I don't think I'll open any of them yet.

I might even sell some of them on the blogsale lol.

The most expensive haul I got is from Dr. Pico.
Honestly, I was excited for one item only, the Blackhead Serum.

I haven't even tried any of them yet.
I can't because they told me I would break out and I can't break out before my sister's engagement (It's on Saturday).

If it works like hell, then I'm in a pickle.

Dr.Pico Haul

Last but not least, I won these recently from a giveaway by Etude House Brunei.

I worked hard for it. LOL. Kinda embarrassed but I really, really wanted it.

Reason was that I didn't know it was limited edition UNTIL I checked that site I was gonna buy from. I kept asking and asking EH Brunei WHY they didn't bring it in, but they didn't say.

When I saw that they were giving them away I hyperventilated lol.

I was like "WHAT???"

So yeah.

Etude House Sweet Recipe Limited Edition Nail Polish

I wanted it and I got it.

They're so cute ( ;-; )

So yeah, that's my procrastination haul.

I think I'll be using the Dr.Pico stuff next week?

I'll be doing updates I guess since I'm borrowing my sister's camera so yay for HQ pics. (Minus one pic here lol)

...even though I suck at taking photos.

Drool.

I baked this last Saturday :D

It's supposedly a pumpkin pie but I guess it's more of a custard.

It's yummy.

So yeah, take care!

My giveaway is ending soon :)
Join it if you want to.

-Nisah-

P.S: I'm doing a Modern Family Marathon :D
Join me? LOL

Favourite Couple ;D

Sweet Recipe Has Arrived in Brunei's Etude House!

Hey everyone!
I finally managed to go to Etude House!!
I was excited that I finally got to see the lovely collection right in front of me.

Mind you, not all the products have arrived yet.
They're coming in periodically, I'm guessing they need to clear off some stuff to let these products in.

Which makes sense.

Anyway, I managed to get all the prices for the stuff that's arrived (minus the Sweet Recipe Cotton Candy Ball and the Sweet Recipe Sliced Cake Puffs):

Sweet Recipe Baby Choux Base (BND21.90)

#1 Mint Choux

-This is good for acne-prone and sensitive skin tones that often suffer from redness. 

#2 Berry Choux

-This is good for brightening dull-looking skin, or pale skin. The SA also said this is good for dark skin tones.

Unfortunately the third base, which is the #3 Peach Choux, is not brought into Brunei. When I found out, I decided to order it online because according to reviews and the description, it's this base that's good for yellow based, dark skin tones.

I've used it once, so I can't really judge it yet but I don't think it really controlled oil like what reviews are saying. Though I will wait and use it again before I make a proper review.

Sweet Recipe Candy Stick (BND9.90)

Orange Candy * Lemon Candy * Strawberry Candy

-This is a gloss tint that is meant to be lasting. It contains 5 plant ingredients and Xylitol.

I took a look at them, and it totally reminded me of the Tony Moly Petit Bunny Gloss Bar except in candy cane packaging!! I'd probably buy this JUST because of the packaging!!

Sweet Recipe Cupcake All Over Color (BND14.90)

PK001 Blueberry Cheese Cake
PK002 Strawberry Chiffon Cake
RD301 Raspberry Mousse Cake
OR201 Orange Choux Cake
OR202 Peach Sugar Cake

-This is a 3 in 1 product from the Sweet Recipe line. You can use it as cream eyeshadow/base eyeshadow, cream blush and also a lip cream.

I actually bought one of these :)

Can you guess what I bought? It'll be answered at the end~

Sweet Recipe Cupcake Eyes Eyeshadow (BND17.90)

PK001 Sweet Berry Lemon Mousse
OR201 Fresh Mango Tango
BR401 Sugar Maple Syrup Choco
PP501 Blueberry & Strawberry
BR402 Chocochip Sweet Mint

- These eyeshadows are shimmery and the two tones are meant for gradient effect. Just your normal eyeshadows but in a cute packaging.

These are similar to another product, but I'm not sure what line it's from. I think the colours are different though. If I'm not mistaken, these ones have better colour payoff, at least in my opinion. Would I buy one of these? Sure. I think PK001 is lovely. I wanna say these are baked shadows SO you can use them dry and wet!

Sweet Recipe Dear My Jelly Lips-Talk (BND18.90)

Jelly Bean Lipsticks!

- These sheer-coloured lipsticks will give you irresistible jelly lips with its moist and shimmery finish.

I'll let the photos do the talking!

I didn't remember if all the colours are available but I know the yellow one and the light pink was there. Haha.

I really wanna try these!

----

So yeah, for now, that's all they have of the Sweet Recipe line :)

The SA told me the nail polishes have arrived (it's in the office) but unfortunately, they didn't bring in the 4 sprinkle ones:

WHY??? These are the cute ones!

They are, however, bringing in these ones...

Lovely colours, definitely.

SO.

Have you guys guessed what I got?

I mean, which shade?

LOL.

Here you go!

Did you get it right?

I can't wait to use this!

I'll do a review soon enough :D

So yeah, hopefully that was helpful!

Take care everyone!!

Last Sunday's LOTD and A Mini Haul

I went out on Sunday, and I rarely go out.
I wanted to actually check out Tony Moly's "Secret" promo. It wasn't that much. I didn't buy anything from them because my lil' sis was there to be my conscience LOL.

It was funny because while in the car, I was actually telling her that I learnt from a blogger that "If the discount is just 10%, it's not worth it. Don't bother." And well, Tony Moly had only member discount that time, which was 10%. LOL. I really don't listen to myself. They also have that HSBC discount but I don't get that.

So yeah, dad dropped us off at Airport Mall, then we walked to Times Square.

What I was wearing that day a.k.a Outfit of the Day/Night:

A girly look I guess?

I was wearing a white v-neck cotton shirt from Uniqlo I bought back in 2008 in Japan. Wow, that thing lasts long! XD It's still comfy, and I've worn it when I was fattest so it might be a bit loose? The peach/orange loose knit/lace thing is from Brands Outlet~ The skirt I kinda hiked up a bit because it was too long, that actually was from Labuan a LONG time ago. I've only started wearing it recently. It's actually an office skirt. I dunno what I was thinking back then, it was in 2004. I was only 13 then! Then I wore leggings. I wore my favourite shoes and the bag was from my sis' stash lol.

I GAINED WEIGHT D: NOOOOO.

My makeup and hair that day.

I also had my favourite lapis lazuli necklace :D See? Told you it goes with everything!

I had my hair in bubble style, I've only worn this out one other time back in 2011.

Hmph.

Unfortunately at the end, while still at Airport Mall, most of my hair-ties died on me. One by one D: I just gave up and undid everything when I went to Hua Ho Mall. It was fun while it lasted!

Under natural sunlight. I DO NOT LIKE MY BROWS.

Unfortunately my red dye has died.

Uguuu.

It's still light coloured but no longer red D:

I loved my red hair. DAMMIT.

Anyway~

We didn't manage to go to places much, because I had to meet up with someone around 7.30pm, WHICH my dad forgot about >_>; Sigh.

I managed to go to only TheFaceShop and buy some stuff from there. I had the vouchers from my birthday, I thought it was a waste to not use it...

So I bought these things!

Three things for BND30+ (even after discounts ._. )

Out of three of these, one of them is a real impulse buy.

One of them I really need.

Then the other was just curiosity.

Can you guess?

Here it is in the order:

Friggin Impulse Buy. BUY ME.

This is TFS Crystal Collection Nail Polish in BL601 (BND12.90)

It was love at first swatch D:

I normally don't buy expensive nail polish because I don't wear them everyday...

But my sis just HAD to swatch it on my finger.

I fell in love.

Since it's the time of the month this week, I decided to get it. So I can paint my nails and admire them. LOL.

After discount it was BND10.32. I do not approve :x

It was also the last one on the rack (for Times Square anyway)

The swatched nail is holding on well. No chipping, still going strong. Very prettily. I didn't even put top coat. I'll paint all my nails later.

I'm running out of the other item D:

I got this because it wasn't that pricey...well, no, actually it was. But then again, every item at TFS is kinda expensive D: WHY. This was priced at BND10.90. It was BND8.72 after discount.

After buying it, I had my fears that it might just not work that well. I have a DAISO one that I hate because of the smell. But I'm running out of it. And it doesn't work that well D:

But now that I read reviews...I'm scared this might not work on me D:

Some people said that the DAISO one works wonders compared to this. SO, WHAT DOES THAT MEAN???

Unfortunately, TFS' policy = GOODS SOLD ARE NOT RETURNABLE.

Makes me wonder if they do refunds though LOL.

I'll just try it though and hope it's good.

Are you any better?

I have many mild exfoliants. Well, actually I have two. Both from SkinFood.

This is my third one. I was attracted to it because it's Papaya. I mean, papaya usually works.

I hope you're good. You cost me BND13.45 after discount. Normal price is BND26.90.

Of all the items, I'm pretty excited for the nail polish! 

I'm gonna have pretty nails for a week.

I also got my Mey Rin wig on that day :D

I ordered it through a friend.

My first proper cosplay wig.

I'm so excited :D

This would be my first proper cosplay ever!

Hopefully.

I need to make/buy the costume. I'm sewing out a draft dress and I'm stuck at the sleeves.

It's more deep magenta in real life.

I need to cut the bangs D:

But I like it like this...

I'm so in love with this hairstyle D:

Or maybe it's the colour?

I love the short hairstyle so much I might just cut it like this in May.

I'm done with my long thick hair!

I'm so tired of it.

Plus it reminds me of someone I rather not remember anyway.

I really, really want this hair :O

But then I'll have to style it more :/

But yeah.

So that's my mini haul, and stuff.

I'm so sleepy.

I started exercising again *coughdancingcough* and I'm gonna eat better.

I should really start fixing my sleeping pattern if I wanna lose weight though.

So yeah, take care!

Do check out my recent reviews!

Have a great day!

-Nisah-

Etude House Sweet Recipe Will Be In Brunei? YES!

Well, they said so on my post anyway!

At first I was like NO. Then OMG YESSSSSS.

Well, what does that mean?

HEAVEN.

I don't think I'll buy ALL the collection, I think I should collect all my monies for this day to come.

Provided that it's not overpriced :x

Like, seriously.

I'm eyeing the Ice Cream Nails, like HELLOOOO, that's why I wanted it in the first place.

Wanna see the pics?

Go Google it.

HAHAHA, no, no.

I'm just kidding.

I'm eyeing the Mint one the most. BUT I WANT EVERYTHING.

I just hope it's not marked up three times the price. Twice is fine.

But three times, no.

Nope.

Okay, Etude?

Great.

Take care, it's such a hot day!

My New Year's + 10,000 Hits Giveaway!

First of all, HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!! It's 2013 now by the time I'm posting this!
1/1/13, yes, no more 2012.

Did the world end? Nope. LOL.

I'm happy to announce that my blog has reached 10k views about a month ago or so~

I honestly didn't expect it to be so soon as I have prepared my New Year's Giveaway in advanced. So to celebrate that, I had decided to hold a giveaway with SIX winners!

Yes, you read that right, there will be six winners for this one. Excited?
I sure am!

It's honestly really just a small giveaway, appreciating that people take the time to visit my small blog with lots of rambling and stuff, I can't deny it's mostly about hauls and really little reviews :/ I originally made this blog for reviews, so excuse me for that.

Anyway, on with the prizes :D

Reading feedback, I'm sure not everyone is interested to win makeup as much as I thought they would, so this time, there will be two separate Rafflecopters :)

So, for the Makeup Version, we have:

Set A

MUA Cosmetics Pretty Pastels Palette + Lipstick in Shade 16, Nectar 

This palette is for pastel lovers who are not only into pastels but some neutrals too, with 12 gentle shades to choose from, you can't go wrong with this. It comes with dual-ended sponge tip applicators. With this, a very bright shade of lipstick called Nectar is included. Just dab it on for a bright pop of colour with your pastel eyes!

Set B

MUA Cosmetics Poptastic Palette + Lipstick in Shade 15, Juicy 

For those who crave for a pop of colour every time, you can't go wrong with this palette. The dominant shades are blues and greens but in between, you have pretty pops of yellow and pink and even red!! If you're unsure of these, you can always use them to line your eyes and give a nice pop of colour, paired with your beautiful lipstick in Juicy!

Set C

MUA Cosmetics Glamour Days Palette + Lipstick in Shade 14, Bare 

Specially for people who love smokey and neutral eye looks, this palette is for you! Not only that, the lipstick it comes with is nude and can be put on sheer or opaque depending on the style you go with. Be it neutrals or smokey, this palette has all. Even a blue and a green! You can't go wrong with this!

If you wanna join the makeup portion, just fill in this Rafflecopter:

For the Miscellaneous Version, we have:

Set A

Hair Accessory & Bangles

This is for the girls who like to prettify themselves with accessories. The bangle would fit most fashion and the best thing is, it's detachable! You can either use them all, or use them separately depending on your clothes! As for the hair-clips, it's either girly or chic, it's up to you!

Set B

3 Nailpolishes and 2 Nailart Stickers

For nail lovers, you will get 1 blue nailpolish from Etude House and 2 beautiful girly and sophisticated colours from sasatinnie! With that, you can also decorate your nails with two kinds of nailart stickers, one that comes in pink and the other comes in black. What would you choose?

Set C

Clinelle Travel Kit for Normal to Oily Skin

This travel kit comes with a cleanser, a toner, a moisturizer and even an eye product! It's small enough to carry around, and big enough for you to sample if it fits your skin or not. I chose this because it's very friendly for the skin, but those who choose this must be sure your skin fits the normal to oily category! This is suitable for those with problem skin.
