Haul: Lumiere Pre-Buy Brushes......They're here!

Remember this entry i had eons ago?

Well.. the brushes are finally here! That's a total of THREE MONTHS worth of waiting. Hot pink bristles. OH MY GOD. I wanted sooooooooo much to upload a photo, but OnSugar just wont load it! Tomorrow, perhaps. So the brushes we (my sister and i) got are:

Duo Fiber Optic
Angled Blush Brush (x2)
Contour Blender
Angled Fiber Optic
Retractable Kabuki

Total damage: SGD44.99 (inclusive of shipping & local registered mailing)

Not a bad deal, i say! We already know they're gonna be pink. but what we didnt know they're gonna look this good (maybe not for those who dont really like pink)! TheShadesOfU already reviewed these brushes. She didn't like it as much, compared to her pre-buys from previous years. In fact, many didnt like the way they look. I guess it's gonna be a bit of a challenge when it comes to washing them. but hey! I dont have the previous pre-buys, so I'm pretty happy with my buys. especially the Retractable Kabuki. It's fluffy and oh-so-super-soft! Can't wait to use them!

I'll be taking comparison shots with whatever brushes in my collection that i can compare to (eg. the Duo Fiber Optic). So look out for that! :)

Lumiere Cosmetics PreBuy Brush Sale

Lumiere Cosmetics is having their annual (i believe it's annual) PreBuy Brush Sale again. and of course, naturally, i'm lemming for some new brushes. i must be crazy because i have not even touched my Sigma brushes yet!

So my lemmings inlcude the..

Angled Fiber Optic - Synthetic


Angled Blush Brush - Synthetic


Retractable Kabuki - Synthetic


Dome Powder - Synthetic

I believe there might be more. I'm still looking. They have discounts when a certain quantity is purchase. so i think this is a good deal to share. and dont ask why i need two more blush brush. Theyr'e different. at least in my opinion. and how could you resist the when the bristles will be in HOT PINK and Black?! at least that's what they say in the brush description..

September-cum-Raya buys.

Woohooo. My first haul entry!
So i didnt really get all these in September. It's kinda collective. They just happen to arrive within this month. At the perfect timing too, just in time for Raya! :)



so i got myself..
Sigma Naughty in Black Travel Brush Set - SGD83.00 aft. shipping
Hazeline Snow Moisturising Cream - SGD3.50
Fasio Point Make-up Remover - SGD8++ (aft. disc)
L'oreal True Match Liquid Concealor - SGD12.74 (aft. disc)

and from my NYX spree..
Rouge Cream Blush in Natural
Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk
Single Eyeshadow in Highlight
and FOUR Ultra Pearl Mania in Nude, Rust, Sky Pink & Walnut.

Cherry Culture was having some 20% off storewide, so i had to get  bunch of stuffs that i've been wanting to try. NYX Rouge Cream Blush in Natural is LOVE. I tried it and totally adore the natural pink flush it gives. I would usually top it off with a light sweep of M·A·C MSF in Petticoat to give me that glow. The rest i've yet to try. Maybe soon, for Raya. :)



I purchased the Sigma Naughty in Black Travel Brush Set because i thought i should finally invest in good quality brushes. I'm not sure if it's all worth it though. The brushes are SUPER soft, no doubt. but the price tag is a little hefty, no? And i'm kinda disappointed about the SS150. Not as fluffy as i thought. SS150 Full Size is however, a different story. It's a really huge, fluffy and soft! Just what i needed for my finishing powder, albeit the too-long handle.

Comparison:


The rest are just random buys.
Hazeline Snow Moisturising Cream was purchased after reading Diana aka AdoreBeauty. Her & some other OnSugarettes are raving about it. Found it at my neighbourhood market for only S$3.30 for the 100ml tub, so i figured why not. The other two are purchases from the JL's 10%/20% off promotion with additional 20% off storewide. Mainly my favorites and i'm running out.

So that's it. a bit lengthy, i know. too much for a first time?
I'll try to shorten my entries in the future.
Till the next time! :)
