SOMETHING TO SHARE

hiiiiiiiiiii. i just finished my psychology essay and i need to take a break before trying to understand POA all over again.

(by the way this post is for females only heh)

anyway, when im stressed i tend to shop more. AND I FOUND GOOD BUYS. im very dependent on online shops like forever21.com, sephora.com, smoochiezz.com (for sprees), allcosmeticswholesale.com, supre.au, and ETC because its more convenient, its cheaper and usually when you shop at the physical shop itself (clothing stores) you’ll have to buy clothes on the rack (which means its not brand new/other people tried them on before). so i really like shopping online, but forget about the pricy shipping fees.

ok cut my crap. here it is:

p.s. i ordered everything via smoochiezz.com ;)

1. my mac blusher just died on me recently (the plastic surface dropped out -.- and ive been looking for a suitable blush (other than mac, im pretty sick of using mac cosmetics cause im a MAC fan- so i was thinking, why not try other brands?). i shopped at sephora.com and GUESS WHAT I FOUND:

THATS RIGHT, smashbox duo blush for just $7 USD! yes yes yes its real. i checked like three times (refreshed the same page) and its still $7 hahahahaha. converting into SGD it’d be $11.94 (including shipping) i was like WHUTTTTT???? not to mention it has GREAT reviews, like 4.5/5?! wtf i almost died looking at this baby.

2. ive always, ALWAYS wanted to look for a brush cleanser at a reasonable price. i found the ELF brush cleanser on smoochiezz but it has bad reviews :( i never liked ELF actually, the cosmetics are like dirt cheap and useless :/ so i checked out sephora.com again and found:

sephora collection items are cheap and good (those with good reviews, of course) this bottle cost about $10.50 (including shipping!). and it has good reviews too (4.3/5)! quoting a review:

Quick Take: gentle formula, conditioning, quick drying

My brushes are softer after using this every week and I also use the daily brush cleaner in between uses.

Lessens the risk of breakouts and gives me peace of mind.

LOVE IT.

so if youre looking for a brush cleanser, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?

3. ive watched michelle phan’s make-up tutorial video recently and she used a gorgeous glitter liquid liner from MAC to highlight her eyes…. extremely beautiful. ive never tried using a liquid liner in my life actually, so i didnt want to purchase from MAC because its quite pricy considering the fact that i just want to try something new out. and i found an alternative, the price is quite alright and its from urban decay!

i love urban decay because of the naked palette (its amazing, im telling you), they even produced a new palette called naked palette 2 (omg kill… me). il get it sooner or later but its no rush. anyway, its called heavy metal glitter liner and its $18 USD which is $27.60 SGD. i was gonna get it until i saw the SAME one, at allcosmeticswholesale, selling at $8.99 USD = $14.70 SGD. TSKKK ITS ALMOST HALF THE PRICE AT SEPHORA. thank god hahaha omg i sound like an aunty now.

4. i stopped buying mascara (i use maybelline, because they produce the BEST mascaras ever. people always ask what brand i use/are my lashes real or fake/which mascara from maybelline) from watsons since last year because i found a cheaper alternative @ allcosmeticswholesale. its about $5.99 USD = $10.50 SGD, as compared to those retailing at watsons, if im not wrong, $17-19? uh huh its a steal!

5. kohl and contour eyeliner pencil is the best…… its even better than MAC’s one because it doesnt smudge and it stays on for damn long. ive been using it since i was 14 and im already 20 so it explains how great it is? but anyway i was looking for a new one in town recently but unfortunately metro (at paragon) doesnt carry the brand. so i ditched the idea of getting it at watsons (i think they have this brand) and saw a better alternative online at sephora.com:

24/7 glide-on eye pencil from urban decay! 4.5/5 reviews and its retailing at $18 USD….. BUT i found it on allcosmeticswholesale hehehehehe and its retailing at $4.99 USD, WHAT THE HELL…. its like 1/3 of the price at sephora?!!?!?!?!!!!!

6. ive been looking for a hair mask (i even tried looking for em at watsons) and they’re retailing at about $20-30 odd. hair masks tend to be a little bit more pricy. and on top of that, ive never heard of good reviews of those retailing at watsons. i recently found

and a friend recommended me to use neutrogena’s triple moisture deep recovery hair mask. i couldnt find this anywhere in singapore (either im inefficient or im unlucky) so i decided to buy it online again. and amazingly, drugstore.com is selling it at $6.99 USD = $12 (including shipping!) SO I BOUGHT IT. i was considering if i should get two initially (neutrogena’s having a sale at drugstore) but i didnt because im only 20 and im not an aunty hahahaha. i even recommended this to furry! (EGP’s owner) ^^

so my point is, always buy stuff online and via smoochiezz (shes extremely efficient!) i ship in from f21 via smoochiezz too hehe ^^ as you can see ive saved so much money just by buying online. the only con is it’ll take a while to reach you. but considering the amount of money you can save, why not? they say, “good things come to those who wait” and this concludes my shopping spree online!

;) hope it helps!
