First Haul Ever!

           Hello there! I know it was a long hiatus from blogging. But now I'm back..(kasi sembreak! hehe). So today I will be sharing my beauty finds this October which is my first ever makeup/ skin care haul. All products were bought from Watsons Philippines, SM Bicutan branch. These are all skin care products from Pond's Philippines. The saleslady was very accommodating not to the extent annoying (like some salesladies are). 

           First, is the promo set of Pond's Age Miracle Cell ReGEN Daycream SPF 15 PA++ with free Facial foam (a big saving, yes!)

           I chose to buy this Age Miracle set because I am convinced that at age 20+, one should use anti-aging products to stay youthful and blooming! And I don't have any other brand aside from Pond's that I trust since I was in High School. If I may share, I  tried a day cream from another brand that irritated my skin when I was in college. It was freaking hot on the face and gradually burnt it! Since then I turn my back around and used again my first ever day cream. ^_^ It was a long time ago when I stopped using any day cream but now I'm back to being radiantly beautiful! LOL                                                
                                              

 Now, here are the two items inside the box:

    

 Look how the Daycream was packed:

I fell in love with its container! (parang reyna na nakaupo sa kanyang trono) Pardon the code switching! :p I was handling it as if it was too fragile. I was afraid that it might break in my hands! haha And here is the HUGE Facial Foam (as I was expecting it would be more or less trial size but it was a HUGE 100grams!) :

                The saleslady mentioned that if I'll reach a purchase worth P1000, I will be receiving a Rajo Laurel red purse! That was great since I needed to buy a toner and a primer, too!       

       Here is the Pond's White Beauty Pore Conditioning Toner:

and the Pond's Flawless White Ultra Luminous Serum. I bought this because it was cheaper than the Age Miracle serum. Nonetheless, I like the Pond's Flawless White variety since I also wanted to have fairer skin ( hoping :D ). 

              The saleslady also told me that it serves as a makeup base, which is so timely because I want to buy a face primer.  I just bought a make-up base of the same brand with that of my skin care products! This is what I wish for, to buy all that I needed from one brand or store! Success! and guess what, I received the freebie! Yehey!

uh oh, here comes the saleslady again, telling me something I can barely resist! She said that I can get a Watson's vanity pouch if I reach P1,200. And imagine my happiness when I learned that I just need P50 to be able to get that vanity pouch! hahaha The next moment was a slight disappointment since I needed to buy two (2) items if  I'll choose an item below P60 from the selection. But with the help of my love (charing!), I decided to get 2 Watson's Velvet Tissue in a box worth P49.00 each so thats P98...not bad and I got this purple cutie!! :D :

What a wonderful haul it was! hehe Here are the things that I want to try next time:

1. Pond's BB cream (uggghh I felt a little regret since I could have bought this too with a free item - that, I could not remember) I hope they will still have that promo box when I go there next time ..
2. Age Miracle toner and serum para all i one variety na diba? hehe

That's it for now! Who among you have tried the products I mentioned here? Any helpful tips ? I would appreciate it! Comment down below! 

PS: I will be making a review for each product. I hope you stay tuned!

Thank you so much!

Happy and Excited!!

               At last, I got my NYX soft matte lip cream and round lipstick which I ordered online! Yehey! I've been waiting for these items since March 23,last Saturday. And what day is it today? It's Thursday! Imagine the agony of an impatient girl like me..lol. BTW, I ordered these lippies from NYX Cosmetics (Official Distributor in the Philippines) based in Davao City.
               Below are the photos of my lippies. I was glad that the online shop placed them in a clear plastic container (which was broken maybe during shipment). And I was even happier because the lippies were individually wrapped with bubble wrap..(sounds good..lol)

NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream  (still wrapped)

NYX Round Lipstick with the lip cream (still wrapped)

    I ordered NYX Soft Matte lip cream in Addis Ababa, a bright pink shade which is so girly! hehe

                         
and NYX Round Lipstick in Paris, lighter than Addis Ababa..still in pink shade.

       Here are the swatches... ^_^

I can't wait to use these lippies and make a review..well, here's a sneak peek..lol..

The first step.

The first step. To post something.. :) I wanted to share my top five wishes that I want to grant myself this coming March. Why march? It's just because I don't have enough resources this February, sad to say. I think I have an extra money this coming march..no- I must say "I should have". haha..I'll just cut down on my food expenses..haha..can I?...hmmm..Let's see..

Now here are my top five wishes!

1. Etude House--Skin Care Products!

    I really don't have a skin care routine except taking a bath with an ordinary soap and applying an ordinary lotion as well..These two products just don't do anything that remarkable on my skin.. I want to buy these..

Etude House Moistfull special set
Etude House Moistfull peeling wash
Etude House BB Moisturizing Foundation
Etude House BB Magic Cream with SPF 30

I just wanted to try Etude House Products..haha

2. Skin Essencia by Trinketstokeep of Facebook! :)

Set B Face and Body Whitening and Peeling System
-premium Kojic Soap
-green peeling oil with vitamin E
-Premium extra-strength bleaching cream
-Premium body bleaching balm spf 60, Nano white and Bearberry, instant white finish

The set is worth the price I think :)

3. NYX Matte Lip cream in Addis Ababa!

I am now loving the feel of having make up on my dry face! and thinking of a pink matte lip cream on my lips is just exciting..ohhhhhhhh..:)

4.  Make up brush set

  I found a lot of online stores in Facebook that sell make up brush set. I wanted to have one set!

oh how i wanted to buy this instant..:(

5.  Mascara, liquid eyeliner, and bronzer..

Since I am a working girl, I want to try new things on my face and three of those are applying mascara, liquid eyeliner and bronzer on my face..I am bored with just an eye shadow, blush on and a lipstick on top of my J&J baby powder..ughhh..see I don't have  a nice powder coverage! I even don't have a facial wash and toner..that's how I badly treat my face! :(

Well five is up..now I am thinking what should I buy first..I really don't know..my priority now is to look my best in our upcoming program this March! with make-up of course..but it is not good to just have make-up right? I should have skin care products as well...that's the sad part of life..it's a matter of priority!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How was my first ever post? I'm sure you guys out there has something to say! Just spill it out in a nice way though..:) 

Thanks for reading!

Till next time :)
