Beauty retail therapy!

after work went shopping with XGM and sister! today sister got drive, so free ride to orchard to meet XGM,hehe

had dinner at MOS cos dun wan to waste time. 8282 philosophy: chop chop eat, then can slowly shop!

XGM wanna look at makeup today, so taka we went. so many makeup counters. went around see see look look test test, very fun! xgm whack the lancome counter, bought mascara, primer,blusher,2way cake etcetc... the gift for lancome for above $160 purchases is quite good, a travel pouch with mini mascara, eye liner, lipstick n more!

me whack the shu umera counter, grinz. the counter salesguy was good, he put on makeup (mascara, blusher and some glow on thingy on my eyes) for me and viola, got difference sia! but too bad he gg back to malaysia to do free-lance, me and xgm were kindof disappointed cos we tot next time can return to him to do our makeup!

what i bought fm shu umera:
1) glow-on blush (peach 47) $40
2) glow-on blush (gold 91) - $40 this one to highlight the eyes for 3D effect, amazing!
3) Eyelash curler -$24
4) High performance balancing cleansing oil - $53 the pink bottle make-up remover for oily skin
Total damage done: $157 !!!
(consolation was I had a $20 taka voucher and a free gift of skincare (toner, moisturizing, some anti-aging cream) and shu umera membership card, whee~)

Some great beauty advice from 82sis who used to sell skincare:

1) Estee Launder for lipstick and mascara
(I agree that estee lipstick is long-lasting cos my mum only buys estee lipsticks,hehe, for myself, i like the mascara from anna sui,hehe)
2) Lancome for 2waycake
(added to my wishlist...)
3) Shu umera for blusher and make-up remover and the 'pearly' sunblock
(just bought the 1st 2 today, sunblock too ex for me)
4) Laniege for the strawberry yoghurt mask
(added to my wishlist....)
5) Mac for eyeshadow and blusher
(added to my wishlist...)
and her final beauty advice: quality makeup/skincare are good investments, cos we will noe when we age

Points noted. :P
