Hey everyone, as you can see, I'm selling my SIGMA travel size brush kit. I'm not sure if it'll receive any response because of all the drama about SIGMA MAKE-UP.

Anyway, the reason for selling it is because I've had it for quite sometime already, and have not touched it AT ALL. I don't see me using them anytime soon either. You'll realise that some brushes are Not For Sale as these are the only ones i would like to keep. However, they are ALL yours (Yes! All 8 brushes + brush roll!) if you're interested in getting the whole set. I'm selling at the price I got it for (inclusive of shipping), so no bargaining please.

So... Leave a comment with your email address if you're keen.
Or just leave me an email!

Thank you for reading! :)

Haul: We splurged!

So last Saturday, boyf and i decided to go shopping since it's PAYDAY! Neither of us got what we were looking for. Instead, we splurged on skincare!

Boyf had a really bad breakout, which left some scars on his face. It's really hard to convince him to try a product despite having good reviews. So i'm pretty surprised that he wanted to try the Blemish Control Daily Skin-Clearing Treatment. I really do hope it works on him because he's been self-concious about his skin lately. Men wanna look good too, ya know..

I wanted to get the Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado as i've been eyeing it for quite sometime. Laura/lollipop26 had a positive review on it, and as always, i get easily influenced by her. Adore her so much. But I ended up getting the Abyssine Eye Cream, as it was a multi-purpose eye cream/treatment (as claimed by the SA) compared to the other one, which only hydrates. I just hope it works well because now i'm wishing i got the creamy Avocado one.

I guess it was a pretty much an impluse purchase. but hey, there was 20% off storewide.

A (tiny) Haul from Earthen Glow Minerals

So sometime in early January, i placed an order with Earthen Glow Minerals. I was in the mood to try out mineral foundations, and was researching on companies when i came across this particular one. They had a FREE sample kit of their mineral foundations which inlcudes ALL shades under the skintone and finish of your choice. You only need to pay for shipping, which was USD3.95. I didnt wanna pay that amount for a free kit in sample baggies, so i added another 5 piece sample kit and a solid perfume since they were having 30% off.

The package arrived about 3 weeks later, which i guess i didnt really mind. It's understandable that processing time will be a little slow since they just had a massive sale and response would be overwhelming. What bothered me was the condition my items came in. The packaging was dirty, products were spilling and it made quite a mess. When i took the jars out, i found out the cap were not tightly screwed! I can literally 'lift' the cap up to open up the jars..

So i emailed them about it and 4 days later, they replied. In the email, they said..
"Hello,
We apologize for the items that were received in poor condition. 
Please let us know what you feel is a reasonable solution to this issue so we may satisfy you completely.
We await your reply."

Seems reasonable, right? Thing is, i do not know what is a 'reasonable solution'.
Should i reply them back or just let the matter go?

Hit pan on my Studiofix Powder!

Hello people!
I haven't been blogging much, have i? No time lahh.. Got home so late everyday, too tired to blog.

Anyway, i finally hit pan on my Studiofix Powder! After like more than a year of usage.. Well, it hit pan a few months ago, but it doesnt seem to finish! As you can see, i still have some left, which could probably last about 2 weeks more?

I need to get a replacement asap because i dont wanna run out before i get a new one. but thing is, I'm not sure if i wanna get the exact same product. I don't think i'm ready to spend S$44 on a compact powder/foundation for now. I want to switch, but i have NO idea what to get. I've been thinking about ZA lately, since they've got quite a number good reviews.

But before i spend some money, i wanna hear suggestions.
What product would you recommend that works equally the same as MAC Studiofix Powder, but for lesser money?
