Binnings for Sept/ Oct 2011

There's quite a number of things that I binned for the month of Sept and Oct! I'm so happy with it.  I think being one that likes to buy skincare and cosmetics, we rarely do get to finish everything (well, most things I would gather).  It is considered substantial for me cause I am not a heavy user of skincare and cosmetics (if there's such a thing).

Organic Aid Vitamin E Moisturizing Cream
Used it back in early September.  You can read the review here.

FOTE Block Up SPF50
This is the small bottle that I finished up rather quickly.  A good item for me to travel with but something that I would forego for the odd smell.  Might need a bit of a touch up on that one.  Check out the review here.

Benefit That Gal Face Primer
I left one on its own for a while and decided to use it all up.  It's my beloved primer so I was sitting on it for a while. Haha.. now it's gone! Sob sob

TheFaceShop Nail Nutrition
Had to throw this out as it's been sitting there for too long.  Check out the difference in colour here.  Looks kinda scary to me.. urgh...

Garnier Aqua Defense Intensive Moisturising Essence Gel
This is my second tub of it and it's all gone!  Good item for great price.  Check out the review here.

Loreal Hydrafresh Anti-Shine All day Hydrating & Mattifying Gel
Check it out here.  Btw, there was a warehouse sale and I got another one cause I wanted to try it with its non anti-shine version. Yeaps, I got that too!

Laneige Water Sleeping Face Pack
I didn't do a review on this, but this is something that was gifted to me by Plusizekitten as I went to celebrate her birthday!  It's a fun to use item but something that I cannot use every night because it broke me out! Ergh, I think it's probably too moisturising for my skin.  I used it once a week to twice a week but not routinely.  Just something that I reach out and grabbed to use when my skin's a little too hydrating.  All's fun =D  Not something I would go n purchase full size though eventhough there's great reviews of it out there.

Vaseline Healthy Sunblock Water Resistant UV Proctection Lotion SPF30
One of the good value sunblock out there.  I finished up in one month's time.  Heavy usage on this one.  I checked the price and it's valued at RM20++ now instead of RM10.  Thank God I decided to grab a few more before the price jack.

The Face Shop PK110

Ang my nail polish fetish continues!  I'm on a roll to add to my ever growing collection of nail polishes.  The latest to join my gangs of little bottles is the Face Shop PK110.  

This is going to be a rather short entry

Love: the color, very sweet pink.  If you are into the sweet mood, this goes well for you.  After a good few layer, the colour looks much better and everyone who saw my fingers commented that it looks sweet.  I guess it's good? 

Dislike: 

• it's sheerness.  Even with 3 coats of the polish on, I can still see the white of my nails.  Not exactly easy to color because of its sheerness, sometimes it does make the nails look patchy (especially when I use my unstable left hand to color my right).
• It feels rather thick but yet the colour is very sheer.  A very oddball combination because it makes it ever so hard to even out the colour.

I'd definitely won't repurchase this again and it may take me a while before I come back to it to do my nails.

Do you give your nails nutrition? TheFaceShop Nail Nutrition

Do you give your nails nutrition?  If you do, what do you use?  When I was in Australia last year, my nails was extremely brittle.  I guess it was due to the weather.  I remember back when I was studying, my nails were in that same condition too.  So as I was walking around Melbourne Central, I came across TheFaceShop.  On impulse I went in and started looking at their nail polish.  I scouted and saw this nail nutrition bottle.  Similary, on impulse I decided to buy it... haha...

Did it work?  Well, I'll be honest to say that it didn't really work when I was in Australia.  I guess the winter there is too dry and because my nails were already quite weak, it couldn't save my nails.  I ended up needing to trim it =(

When I got back to Malaysia, I decided to continue using it.  Lo and behold, it works wonders!  I use it continuously for a few days every time after I remove my nail colours.  My nails really does look better and it looks healthier.  It seems to give it a natural glow (does that apply on nails??) and the brush is so soft that it makes application a breeze.

This is a definite re-buy for me =D

Sale Again!

I'm now blogging at http://dailyfemme.blogspot.com.  Do drop by and visit :)

It was just weeks before that Etude House's sale has ended, and now it's back on! It's even greater than the earlier sale.  A lot of their BB items and make up stuff are on 50% off.  I consider them quite good deal since their stuff aren't that expensive in the first place (ranges below RM50).

What's more, a few walks away, I find that TheFaceShop is also having sales.  I think the bargains are quite good deal if it's something you don't want to miss out.



What interests me are the masks available.  In both shops, their masks are selling less than RM10 with 20%!! Oh my gosh.... I saw a variety of masks.  What's interesting is that TheFaceShop has a number of masks that is of herbal origins.  Meaning, instead of mixing it yourself, you can apply a mask with herbal proportion in it for the nourishment of your skin.  I think that's quite cool!  With the price sitting at RM9.90 prior discount, and at RM7.90 after discount, it's definitely a good grab!  I saw this Mung Bean mask at TheFaceShop! I read that Mung Bean helps with those who have breakouts.  Mom told me that it has "cooling" effect, thus I won't be surprised if it does.  It's uber cheap ok!! RM6.90 prior discount, and RM5.50, it's a definite grab for me!! Sigh, my poor face suffered a bout of breakouts recently after so many years... totally at lost with it.  So now, hopefully things will go back to normal with all the masks and stuff I'm plying on my skin to ensure the breakout disappear.

I think the sale will continue to "spread".  I'm actually waiting to see if Nature Republic will have a sale!  Shall keep ya all updated... keke... meanwhile check out those shops ya!
