Saturday/Sunday Steals Vol. 31: Revlon, Max Factor, China Glaze, Mode

Prior to starting the post, I actually couldn't find which chapter my "Saturday/Sunday Steals" series got up to.... Mainly, because my previous post of "Saturday/Sunday Steals" wasn't numbered. I'm not too such what happened and why "past Tram" didn't decide to number the post, causing "present Tram" so many confusions X_X

I guess she felt horrible that the chapters are adding up and we've now hit Vol. 31! 

You know what's even worse?

I actually skipped a few bags from the markets prior to today's haul... I had SO many bags gathered to the corner of my room, but there's now too many so I've decided to just skip them all. LOL. Woop.. 

Small haul today though, because I bought a few of these products at a slightly higher price than I usually would.


  • Mode Nail Polish in Jaded -- 50c only! For swatching purposes... Definitely worth it! ^_^"
  • China Glaze Nail Polish in QT -- This is my second CG polish ever and it was only $1. It's also my first ever holographic nail polish... Wooot! I've been meaning to try holographic nails for yooooooonks!
  • Max Factor's Miracle Touch Liquid Illusion Foundation in Golden -- I've heard much about this foundation on Amanda's blog so when I saw it for only $7... Had to snag it home to see what it's about. I totally forgot that our skin types are on different ends of the scales, but hopefully it'll still somewhat work out!

Along with those products, I also got 3 other lipticks to feed my lipstick obsession (have you seen my Lipstick Tag yet?!)...


  • L'Oreal Paris Color Riche Lipstick in Intense Fuschia -- $5, but the colour is so beautiful! The scent is sickening though.. It was also slightly used, but I made sure to give it a really good rub when I got home (as you could tell, the product is almost like... 25% gone in the photo).
  • Revlon Super Lustrous Lipsticks in Pink Velvet and Love That Pink -- These are brand new and were up for "2 for $15"! However, I managed to haggle these two AND the Max Factor foundation down to only $20 for all 3. Quite a bargain, considering that the foundation itself retails for $35.60 and the lipsticks are $21.95 instore!

I can't wait to try these lippies, but right now.. I'm still trialing Australis' Go Long Longwear Lipsticks... Eeep! I'm alwaaaaaaaaaaays late with reviews.. WHY?!?!?!?!? 

Anyhows, off I go to paint ma nails and catch up on some of Natalie Tran's latest vids...




Hope you guys are having a lovely Sunday!!

5 Blue Nail Polishes Recommended by YOU!

I love blue nail polishes. It's no secret if you're a regular follower! :P

In my NOTD post which features Australis' Blue Tiger and Shimmy Shake, I asked YOU for recommendation of a blue nail polish, and I've received quite a few feedbacks. With those feedbacks, I thought I'd compile a post of recommendations by YOU to share with those who also share the same love for blue nails.

Here it is, in MAGAZINE style!

I tried my best guys!! How do you like it? Yay or nay for this magazine inspired photo?

I've strayed from using press images for some of the images looked overly-photoshopped ^_^
  • Revlon's Royal -- Tashi shared that she really liked this colour, and Sonni also recommended this as her favourite!
  • OPI's Dating A Royal -- This particular lacquer was recommended by Chloe, where she deemed it as her favourite blue nail polish.
  • Butter London's Blagger -- With a love for blue nail polishes, editor of "thebeautycollection" shared the she always seems to gravitate towards blues when it comes down to choosing a nail colour. Her well-loved blues includes Butter London's Blagger!
  • Sally Hansen's Pacific Blue -- Both Tashi and Sarah recommended this and it sure does looks amazingggg.
  • China Glaze's First Mate -- "Err. CG's First Mate", was all she said. Thanks Amanda. LOL. 

Sandvalanche and editor of "thebeautycollection" also recommended Sportsgirl's Cobalt. Shame, I couldn't find a photo of it online, so I couldn't include it! For everyone who owns Sportsgirl's Cobalt, get to posting about it, will ya?!?!? :P



What do you think of the blues recommended?
Feel free to recommend your favourite blues too!



Big thanks to everyone who took the time out to comment and suggest a blue lacquer! All are added to my wishlist, with Sportsgirl's Cobalt in higher priority.
