Make-up Monday - BB Love

Wow. So I haven't blogged in a loooong time.

Tsk.

But hey... Pretty soon this is all I'll ever be doing. And y'all will get sick of seeing my name on your inbox. Haha.

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

Friday...

We went to DFC, K and Mami needed to get some stuff from Ikea... And I wanted to pass by Sephora and see Smashbox's Photo Finish Primer ... which wasn't available.

Which would have been ok, if their sales people weren't such pricks.

I've never seen such terrible customer service or lack thereof...

I was in the store for about 15 minutes, looking terribly lost, and not one person approached me to ask me what I wanted. When I finally approached someone looking for the product, she started pushing some other product which was not what I was looking for. I specifically told her that I needed a silicone-based primer. When I tested the primer that she offered, I said it wasn't really doing it for me, and I asked whether they had any other primers. She snarled and said no.

Ugh.

Bad bad bad customer service. Those people needs to get their training on.

Anyhoo, after DFC, we passed by Al Ghurair, because I'm just hell-bent on getting me some BB Cream. LOL.

...On my way to Skinfood, however, this caught my attention.

Hi baby. :) Don't you just love love love it? Hihihi.

Oh and lookie. K's shirt is selling at Retro. :) Me so proud of K. Woohoo!

Anyway, I finally got to Skinfood... Awesome customer service. They had great product knowledge and they were nice enough to give me freebies:

I live for all things free. Hahaha. I haven't tried any of them, but the Gold Caviar toner looks promising.

BB Cream!!! Lovelovelove. :) Hihi. And just 'cause I love y'all, eventhough I'm itching to try it, I'm putting off using it 'til I have time to take a "before and after" pic for you guys.

Oh and I got this too...

And y'all know how I really don't use blush, but I couldn't resist.

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

Yesterday...

We went to the 12345 Dirham store, because Mami's friend needed some ideas for her wedding give-aways... Anyhoo, while we were there, Mami saw this bowl thing which is exactly what I was looking for to make a brush stand.

Got the pearls from the 12345 Dirham Shop as well.

  4. first, love the polka dots on your green nails!! =) ang cute. do you do your nails every week or after just a couple of days?

    second, the brush stand is a wonderful idea! What is it u used under the pearls?

    then lastly, I so love what you did with your eyes! ang galing! the colors, even the way they make your eyes pop. wonderful!!

    =) Uhm, do you know where I can get MATTE lipstick for a good price yet good quality din? All these other places I look puro hydrated lipstick, super "juicy"... hihi, any thoughts dear?

    Lapit na birthday natin, girly girl! Remember, we share the same day. So kung wala pa sanang nag-aadvance greeting sa'yo, allow me to be the first: HAPPY BIRTHDAY DANA GIRL!!!

    Mwah!

  6. Awww... Hihihi. Thank you. I do them every week. Kaso since my nail polishes are from the 12345 Dirham Shop, madaling mag-chip, so kailangan magtouch up every couple of days.

    Yung pearls sa brush stand is a mixture of white and gold-ish pearls. I used about seven strands... Medyo malaki yung bowl. Hehe.

    Thank youuuu! :) Hihihi. Natuwa ako masyado sa colors ng sapatos ko. LOL.

    Matte Lipstick... Hmmm. Wala akong matte lipstick, love. Pero I'll research for you. :)

    Oo nga! Lapit na birthday natin. Ahihihi. Happy happy birthday, Teting. Mmmwah!!!

  7. Super good idea with the pearls =) your brushes are mix of EDM and e.l.f? which one do you like using better?

    ReplyDelete
  8. Next Monday! :D Hihihi. I want to take a before and after picture kasi and I didn't have time kahapon. :) Hihihi. Mmmwah! Did you get your nail polishes yet?

  9. I bought the E.L.F. brushes because they were a steal. :) I haven't gotten around to buying the bigger EDM brushes (LHK and FT), but I imagine that they would be super soft just like the baby kabuki and the full kabuki.

    I don't have the same product of each, so I can't really compare...

    I love EDM's eyeshadow kabuki though... Which I haven't seen any other company selling.

    BTW, yung matte lipstick, try Revlon or Clinique. :) Hihi. Mwah!

  10. U're still pretty, don't worry. Saan available yang shirt na yan? I like it sooo much!

    ReplyDelete
  11. Awww... Thank you.

    We got it at Retro... But you can try all Centrepoint or Splash. Same company naman baka meron din dun. :D

    ReplyDelete
  12. Thanks again for everything. I'll go and check Clinique and Revlon.

    Just ordered from EDM, pero yesterday I was on e.l.f almost the whole day (in between work shyempre), and I just can't get over how wonderfully priced they are! You are right, the brushes are a steal! Is there such a thing as having too many brushes? haha, no, I don't think so..

    Anyway, I'm thinking of ordering kasi when you order $15 worth they give you the mini for FREE. check it out! They ship to Guam too!! Me so happy! Tsaka where sa iba it costs a lot, you could get a ton of things for half the price of what others sell. i mean $1 for eyeliners, eye shadows, even lipglosses? Haaaay, nakakaloka talaga ang make-up. I can see why hindi mo rin mapigilan sarili mo.

    Monday always takes forever to come! Can't wait for your next blog!

  13. You're welcome. :D Glad to be of service. :)

    Yeah, there are some really great E.L.F. stuff. The eyeliner pen at a dollar is super awesome. The bronzer, too. Some eyeshadows are great some are not so great, but for a dollar they're ok enough. The brushes are definitely worth your money, especially the studio line. Very very nice. They also released some new stuff, which I am itching to try. LOL. Hayyysss. When will this ever stop? LOL. I ordered my free mini about two weeks ago. I'm hoping it'll be here for next Monday's blog. :)

    Yeah, it does take forever to come. And as it seems, parang tuwing Monday na lang ako nakakapagblog. LOL.

  15. I was double-thinking the brushes, but you have convinced me enough =) hihihi... and yeyy, that's great about the free mini, at least I'll have something din here to reference your reviews with =) Sana nanjan na nga yung sayo by Monday. Can't wait. Till then, ta ta for now!

    Mwah!
