1st Beauty Haul of May

Went to Megamall yesterday for dinner and for Sis's Croc shoes. I had absolutely no intention to spend anymore but who could resist passing by the Mac store and not heading in to check out those inviting black cased cosmetics paired with the most vivid colours? However, I really do not agree with most of the makeup worn on the salesgirls; I mean for crying out loud, dark smokey greens and loud pinks during the day. I always thought they looked like cakes :-) The icing (makeup) is applied smoothly albeit too much and when they talk to me close, I feel like poking into the makeup and wonder if it would crumble just like icing. Well, I am a Mac lover but that is because of their quality not the impressions made by the salesgirls.

So before we could even walk 5 steps away from Mac, I succumbed to the urge and we gleefully walked in like sinners waiting to satisfy our lust for cosmetics (evil laugh).

Here's what I got from Mac:


1. Mac Select Sheer/Loose Powder NC5 - RM85




2. Mac Amplified Creme Lipstick (Blankety) - RM63

Sis got a Painterly Paint Pot for which I also currently own one (review coming soon) as well as a Mac Creamshine Glass. I heart I heart my Painterly, it really makes a big difference to the intensity of a smokey eye makeup lover such as yours truly.

Next haul happened in Sasa. Wanted to buy Kawaii Tokyo's Melting Dew makeup remover but apparently, the salesgirl told me they no longer restock on that. I was heartbroken. You see, I was a previous user of Kanebo Cleansing Oil until I went to Sasa and they told me they no longer restock it. Ok, so I bought Melting Dew since they recommended it. And now, when I totally heart Melting Dew, they discontinued it!Melting Dew just didn't break me out and cleaned my Dior foundation laden face thoroughly well.
Anyway, I just couldn't leave Sasa without a decent makeup remover. So here is the list of items I hauled :-)

1. Cyber Colors Cleansing Oil - RM39.92 (NP: RM49.90)
2. Sasatinnie Makeup Artist's False Lashes Collection 02Clubbing - RM9.90
3. Sasatinnie Makeup Artist's False Lashes Collection 06Velvet - RM9.90
4. Cyber Colors Natural Dolly Eyes Lashes - RM7.92 (NP: RM9.90)


One thing I noticed about Sasa salesgirls is that they love to recommend Sasa or Cyber Colors brand. I wasn't too sure at all about the cleansing oil but I had no choice as they discontinued my favourite brands and they only had Cyber Colors in stock. I just hope I don't break out from it (fingers crossed) but am pretty glad there's a 20% discount on it. The lashes in the black box was labelled under Sasatinnie (Whatever that means *shrugs*) had a good review from Sis. Apparently, those lashes have soft lash bones. Well, I'll try them on soon and tell you what I think.

Cant wait for next week, as I've ordered the highly raved about Cyleina organic soaps, 2 bottles of OPI nail polishes and a 200gm bag of homemade herbal mask which was highly raved about online. All these costed me less than RM100, plus petrol fees to the bank to cash in to the sellers and that's why am pretty jolly :-) Will update on the haul once it arrives ;-)
