Priceline 40% OFF: Hits & Tips

Sale alert! Sale alert!

Priceline is hitting back with their 40% sale on their cosmetics this Wednesday and Thursday!

I've been into make-up for yonks now, so this sale is nothing new. I probably will skip this sale, but hey! That doesn't stop me from posting about my hits and misses, so take note!

HITS

❶ AUSTRALIS Ready Set Go Finishing Powder ($13.95)
Forever my favourite translucent powder. I've mentioned it over and over again, but it's the best powder to set your make-up. Merges all layers of make-up into one, and makes everything feels like skin! Just don't go heavy-handed on this, coz the flash-back is real.

❷ FACE OF AUSTRALIA Translucent Loose Powder ($11.95)
Amazing, amazing powder to bake with. Cheap and efficient. No flashbacks guaranteed.

❸ MAYBELLINE Falsies Push Up Drama Mascara ($21.95)
I've only just started using this mascara, but happy to report that there are no disappointments so far! Separates nicely, holds curls and decently lengthens! Not to mention, that it seems pretty waterproof to me. A customer at the cafe made me tear up (what a meanie!) and I wiped my eyes forgetting that I had mascara on.... NO smudges! Yay!!!

❹ FACE OF AUSTRALIA Glamazon Contour Kit ($9.95)

This is a must-have! The bronzer is just right, and the highlighter is so soft, buttery and the finish is bomb. Trust! 

❺ RIMMEL LONDON Magnifi'Eyes Double Ended Shadow & Liner ($16.95)

I suck at applying eyeshadows so this is my go-to base. Works as a cream base, or lasts well as an eyeshadow itself. I find that this particular duo in Rose Gold & Brown works really well for me! The 'rose gold' works as a warming base, and the cool-toned brown, when used alone, brings out my eye-colour well. I'd never use it as a 'liner' though cause it's definitely not made for precision. 

❻ TOUCH IN SOL Flawless Skin Top Coat ($30-$40)
Low-key Korean brand at Priceline. This foundation is a tad more exxy than my usual go-to's, but the coverage and lasting power is really decent!

❼ MODELS PREFER Infinite Colour Lipstick ($11.99)
If you can still find these, GET EM'! I can't rave about these enough. These are so bomb. Better than what mainstream brands (ahem, Rimmel, Maybelline, L'Oreal, etc) could come up with. The range is matte, and the lasts so much longer than most lippies made available at Priceline. So much more affordable as well!

❽ MAX FACTOR Miracle Touch Liquid Illusion Foundation ($36.95)
Use this with a damp beauty blender and I promise you... you cannot find medium-full coverage that looks anymore natural than this. I promise!

❾ RIMMEL LONDON Wake Me Up Foundation ($19.95)
Another really decent foundation. Decent lasting power, medium coverage and extremely natural finish!

TIPS

Most make-up brands include accessories and tools in their range, so these are included in the sale as well. Therefore, don't forget to snag:

• Sharpeners -- Maybelline, Australis, Face Of Australia
• Make-up removers -- Maybelline, Australis, Face Of Australia
• Nail Polish removers -- Maybelline, Australis, Face Of Australia
• Nail Lacquers -- essie, Sally Hansen, OPI
• Lip Balms -- Maybelline

I wanted to post about products that I'd suggest you to skip as well... but.... no time! Forgive me senorita.


Hope y'all have a blast shopping the 40% sale tomorrow!

NEW ON COUNTER (MAR 2017): NATIO, NYX, Australis, Rimmel London, Revlon, Tom Ford, Bourjois, Sally Hansen, Jane Iredale

Third month into the new year (I shall remind you this every month), I hope we're all proud of what we've achieved with so far.

But even if you haven't yet achieved anything, don't stress it. Life is short. Just have fun while you can!

Quick peek of all the fun (and not very fun) I've been gettin' down to this month:

① Hiked to Kelly's Fall -- Tough hike, but well worth it. Highly recommend it, hehe.

② VTINES -- Valentines this year was a hit. Lunch date, aquarium and then dinner. I woo'd him with my card. It listed "6 reasons why you should be my Valentine (or ask me to be yours)". One of the reasons was: Because I'm a 9/10 and you're a 1/10. Therefore, together, we'd make a 10/10!

Call me a love guru. #howtopickupguys

③ Roamed around Spice Alley with bae. It was like Sydney's secret food market! How were we never informed?!

④ Received this doggo plush for Valentines (plz don't laugh, there was actually a really cute reason for it), but who knew that a week later, I would've got a REAL dog?!?!?! Can't wait to show him to you!
