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!

SALES (11 NOV 2015): COLES, BIG W, PRICELINE & MORE!

It's that time of the year again!

Yeap! Christmas, is what I'm talking about.

The festive season guarantees lots of sales around the corner, some of which I've spotted in stores and from catalogues. Thought I'd be cute and compile a post to share with y'all! （*/∇＼*）

I won't take responsibility for enabling you though!

********

1. BIG W: 40% OFF all cosmetic brands, except Boe Beauty, Thin Lizzy, Barry M and Christmas gift sets. Ends 2 December.

TIP: If you've missed Priceline's recent 40% cosmetics deal, then this one is one to look out for. Brands like essence, Physician's Formula and such won't be there, but if you need something from the regular brands (such as Maybelline, Revlon, Australis, FOA), then now is the time to snag! If you're thinking of buying lots of back-ups, then perhaps just wait for Chemist Warehouse's 1/2 deal which actually happens more than occasionally. 

2. WOOLWORTHS: 40% OFF L'Oreal Skincare and Maybelline. Ending date unkwn.

3. WOOLWORTHS: 25% OFF MUD Make Up. I know this is a cheap brand, but if you've spotted something from them that you like, then now's the chance, as they rarely do sales. Ending date uknwn.

4. WOOLWORTHS: If you've been eye-ing COVERGIRL's latest Star Wars collection, then I'm pretty sure this $10 deal on the limited edition's products would be cheaper than Big W's 40% off deal. Ending date uknwn.

5. WOOLWORTHS: All NIVEA Suncare 1/2 price. Prepare for this heaaaaaaat! Ending date uknwn..

6. PRICELINE: 1/2 PRICE on selected fragrances -- if you need to do Xmas shopping, do it now! Ends December 1.

7. PRICELINE: 30% off GARNIER. Ends 1 December.

8. PRICELINE: 1/2 PRICE on Simple's wipes -- the value pack of 2 drops to $5.49 each! That's less than $2.80 a pack! (lol, do I sound like an ad?) Ends 1 December.

9. COLES: HALF price on Rimmel London -- already restocked on my fave Wake Me Up Foundation, hehe. Ends 1 December.

10. SEPHORA: Aaaaand I'm just gonna leave this here, with special thanks to Tez on TMUS.

Thank Buddha, I've already done my Christmas shopping, and took advantage of all the deals that's been happening recently.

Big W's 40% sale happens today, and goes for the next 6 days. However, I've already got what I needed from Priceline's 40% sale (which I'll blog about soon!) so... count me out! ヽ(ﾟ∇ﾟ)ﾉ

Which shopaholic will be browsing Big W today? Tell me! 

Let me know!

Perfect Gift Packs for Stocking Stuffer Ideas!

Have you decided what you'll be gifting out to friends and family for the upcoming holiday season?!

I know we still have more than a month to go, but I'll be [most likely] leaving for China before Christmas, so I've been pondering around for Christmas stocking stuffer ideas!

If you're on the same page as me, then here's some ideas so we can get our gifts together before then!

Models Prefer Read My Lips Moisture Lust Lip Balm Collection ($20.00 @ Priceline)
My face when I saw this at Priceline: ✿♥‿♥✿
So cheap! You get 5 GLOSSY balms and 5 MATTE balms. Could gift this in a pack OR purchase this as a set and divide them up into stockings. I want it for myself though. Hahaha.

• Savvy Eye On You Eyeliner Kit ($10.00 @ Priceline) -- This is a bit hard to split up if your friends don't like the bolder, brighter eyeliners. And the white one too. It's a nice basic kit for one though!
• Savvy Gloss It Girl ($10.00 @ Priceline)

• Savvy Cast A Shadow ($10.00 @ Priceline) -- Cream eyeshadow kit! 
• Models Prefer Special Effects ($20.00 @ Priceline) -- For all the nail freaks!

Revlon Whimsical Gift Set ($29.95 @ Priceline)

Not a fan of Models Prefer, or Savvy? Here's one for you! A pretty good deal. Five balms for $30, is $6 a balm!

Palmer's Cocoa Butter Naturally Beautiful Pack ($13.99 @ Chemist Warehouse)

Good gift for one! Or good pamper pack for myself, haha. 

Palmer's Luscious Lips Gift Pack ($4.69 @ Chemist Warehouse)

I'm not sure about the quality of these but the Dark Chocolate & Peppermint (sounds yum!) received a 4/5 stars on Beauty Heaven. 

Revlon Sorbet Kisses Gift Pack ($24.99 @ Chemist Warehouse)

Another good deal on Revlon's lip products! Their lip butters though! I have three friends and this would be perfect for them. 

Those are just some quick updates! You may have seen some of these mentioned in my previous SOS post, hehe. 

Let me know if you've spotted any other great deals around town!

I'll share with you my Christmas gifting ideas soon though!

Nail Polish Hoard: Savvy, Models Prefer, Maybelline, COVERGIRL

I hate me sometimes.

I've always wondered which part of me decided to start my series of "Some Outstanding Sales" post. It'd only make sense if I was good at handling myself when great sales are around, right?

Well..... GUESS WOT? (I'm pretty sure you already know anyways...)

I am nowhere near good.. T_T It's a shame to say, but I just have to put this out there......... the goarder part of me has been taking over control these days! Since my previous sales post, I've immediately rushed out to purchase a bunch of nail polishes...

My first stop was at Priceline and these Savvy nail polishes (with a price tag of $3!) caught my eyes.. Picked up some pretty shade that isn't all that similar to what I have in my current collection.. err.. good, right?

Grey, Splash & Dash, Teal

Also snagged these two beauty packs by Models Prefer for only $5 each! BARGAIN!

I actually saw the black and white glitter polish from their larger set of 18 nail polishes first. Was very keen on it, but just wasn't keen on getting the WHOLE set for the sake of 1 nail polish, so I searched around to see if they had a smaller set or individual full size. That was when I found this pack of 2 for $5! SUCH a steal uleh.

The second pack is a better bargain, methinks. A powder blush and a creme blusher stick for just $5! It's a smaller sized powder blush, but I'm still happy with that. The smaller, the better! Mainly because I struggle SO hard to finish any full-sized blush.....................................

Na. I just want to be able to fit in more blushers. LOL..... Just kidding!

Well, second stop was at Chemist Warehouse for $1.99 Sinful Colour Nail Polishes, but I've searched two Chemist Warehouses and found NONE! The ladies said "they must haven't arrived yet", although the range is advertised in their current catalogue. What a waste of time...

Of course, that didn't stop me from making a trip to my third destination -- Target!

Initially, all I wanted to do at Target was to check whether Maybelline's $4 OFF and Covergirl's $3 OFF included their nail range......... but, um, this happened:

What can you say? Maybelline's $4 OFF deal surely does include their nail polish range -- making these drop down to only $1.95 each!

Sapphire Siren, Twilight Rays, Blue Freeze, Wine & Dined

Fierce N Tangy, Green with Envy, Pink Shock, Paint The Town

Checked these babies out, but I TOTALLY forgot to check whether Covergirl's nail polishes were included in their $3 OFF deal, so I went back......

...where this happened... =(

320 Midnight Magic, 230 Golden Opportunity, 190 Wine to Five

240 Coral Silk, 200 Always Naked, 285 Mint Mojito

The after sale price is $3 each for these. They also had a really nice bright candy blue in the range, but I thought.. How many bright candy blues do I really need?

So I picked up all these shades that are quite unfamiliar to my collection.. I'm lacking mints, nudes, foils, wine reds and light, peachy corals :P

Adding to this.. I've also got a huge market haul that I've yet to post about... SIGH. And there are more nail polishes there... >.>

If you are up for $2 Maybelline nail polishes or $3 Covergirl nail polishes,

NOW is the time!

If you're a sales lover, don't forget to check out my previous sales post! ^_^

Much sales from Priceline, but I think Chemist Warehouse's sales are my favourite picks:

Here's one that I've also noticed at Priceline. It MAY vary from stores to stores, so give it a check if you are keen:

AT MY LOCAL PRICELINE: Australis Lash Length Extensions Mascara in 'Brown' (only) was $5-$6 and their Killer Curves mascara was also on sale. I'm not too sure if this is for all stores since it may be a clearance sale.

If you are aware of any other sales, we'd love if you could share below!

Let us know which store/sales you will be hitting up, also!

That's it for now! I've already went out to grab myself some products so I'll show you what I've purchased soon! :P
