THRIFTIN': It's a 3 for $10 deal -- give me them all!

Wanted to share with you a tad more about my overseas trip! 
(*/∇\*)

I spent a month in Vietnam and Taiwan from mid-June to mid-July if you didn't know! Vietnam, not so much, but Taiwan, is pretty much the country of beauty after (or on-par with) Korea and Japan.


You know it's a boss country when they even have products such as hand masks! Hehe.

Surprisingly, I did not buy one beauty-related item for myself overseas. I bought a few handful of Model 21 false eyelashes (one does not simply return from Vietnam without Model 21 lashes) and two bunches of eyebrow pencils -- but they were all for my sister!

I seriously thought the hoarder in me died. But... nope nope nope!

Sunday proved me wrong. I bought...

2 Revlon Ultra HD Lip Lacquers in Fire Opal, Garnet

The top of these lip lacquers are so pretty! Love the packaging. However, I was surprised upon opening em. They have those brush applicators... that I dislike! Eeeep.


Adding to that, I also purchased.. 

Rimmel London Oh My Gloss! in Rebel Red

Australis Velourlips Lip Creams in , Buda-Pash, Bar-tha-Lona, Shang-Hi

Avon Ultra Color Lipstick in Daffodil Petal

Those were all sealed and brand new, and priced "3 for $10". I grabbed 7, so the lady generously gave me the one extra for free! (read: I bargained with her until she gave me one for free haha jk).



I've only tried on Australis Velourlips in Shang-Hi so far.

Australis Velourlips in Shang-Hi

The deeper shades of the Velourlips are so much more forgiving than the lighter, brighter shades methinks. I've tried Rio-D, a bright almost-neon coral, from the same range and although it's beautiful, it's ridiculously drying and patchy!

Minus the rant, I'm looking forward to try the pretty Revlon Ultra HD Lip Lacquers!



Has anyone tried the Revlon Ultra HD Lip Lacquers?! 
What are they like?


Let me know if you have, and let me know how you've been!

On a side note, wanted to share with you guys this incident when we were playing Uno... My friend... (smh).


Who does that, right?!?! Hahahaha...

If you have Snapchat, please feel free to add me! ^_^ @the_beautifool


See ya in ma next post! x

Saturday/Sunday Steals #24 -- 11 Nail Polishes for.... $15? Only possible at f lea markets!

Heya! I haven't posted about these market hauls in a month! But don't you worry! I did not stop hoarding from the markets, I just didn't want to throw so many haul posts at you each week! :(

I've been hoarding every single Sunday! I come home with at least one or two nail polishes each week! :(

Four weeks ago, there was this lovely gentleman at the markets selling Avon nail polishes for $2 each! So cheap, so I picked up a few and Mum bought a few which came to 5 bottles!


We purchased a few nail colours from their different ranges including Kiss Me, Strawberry, Midnight Plum from their Nailwear Pro range and Black as Night from their Matte range.

There's also another bottle which was a treatment polish, I think it may've been for strengthening the nails, but I've totally forgot what it's called!


The week after (three weeks ago), I've also purchased MORE nail polishes... -_-"

I met this girl who's my friend's sister, selling at the markets! :P Cute!


I've picked up five polishes as they were only $1 each, too cheap to pass it up! But besides it being so cheap, I also picked them up because:

  • Rimmel London Lycra in Hot Rock -- thought it was a nice twist from the usual red, with lovely shimmers!
  • Rubi Polish in I Like Pina Coladas -- the bottle looked really cute and I thought you guys would be really interested to see how Rubi nail polishes perform!
  • Rubi Polish in Under the Seaport -- I actually don't have a shade like this in my collection! Would look great with a matte top coat too!
  • BYS in Pink Manicure and Midnight Metallic -- these two, I purely purchased for review purposes for my blog..

I'm really not using my blog as an excuse to hoard... Swear!
But anyways, in two weeks, I purchased 11 bottles of nail polishes............ with $15!



What do you say? Well spent, or nay?



Well spent.................. right?
