My First BeatyMNL Purchase

Hello guys!

I've been feeling down lately. I'm currently lost when it comes to my thesis and it's really stressing me out. Anyway, just so I can feel a little better, I decided to take advantage of BeautyMNL's Big Brand Sale and bought some items. :)

It was the last day of the sale and BeautyMNL has some items that I really wanted to try. What's even better is that it was on sale. I just thought that if I were to splurge, at least I got a good deal out of them. 

And so, I bought some awesome stuff, which I will be sharing with you. Almost everything here was on sale. Yay! And what's even more awesome is that the package arrived in less than 24 hours! I ordered yesterday (Sunday) and paid via paypal and the package arrived today (Monday). Everything was in good condition and neatly wrapped. I'm very impressed with BeautyMNL's service.

It was even in a box and there were enough fillers inside so the products wouldn't get damaged. The box actually arrived covered with shrink wrap and tape so that nothing gets misplaced from it.

Anyway, let's proceed to the fun stuff. Here are the products I bought...

First on the list is a special kit created by BeautyMNL! It's the Thank God It's Friday (TGIF) Kit. The canvas bag consists of different skincare products that I would absolutely love to try! I got this for PhP 699.00 only because it was discounted. Its original price was PhP 999.00.

Inside the kit are the following:

• Be Organic Bath & Body Argan Oil Shampoo, a frizz-fighting shampoo made with “liquid gold.” Read more.

• Kala Milk Soap Honey & Oats Milk Soap, a gentle exfoliating soap bar.Read more.

If you have color-treated hair, then a sulfate free shampoo can help retain the color. The soap on the other hand is something that I have used before and I became an instant fan. :D

• 
  
  Leaders InSolution Double Effect AC Free, a bestselling Korean face mask. Read more.

Bath Junkies Strawberry Samba Body Scrub, a body buffer with berry antioxidants. Read more.

I've only tried a few from Leaders InSolution so I'm curious as to how well this will work on my face. I liked some of the masks I've tried from them. The Bath Junkies Body Scrub, on the other hand, smells super fantastic!

• Made by David Organics Hand Sanitizer Trio, three bottles of scented antibacterial spray. Read more.

It's always a must for me to carry a bottle of sanitizer and I'm excited to use all three because I just love how them smell! :D

Let's proceed to the makeup products next...

Wet N' Wild Mega Last Lip Color in Just Peachy

Got this for PhP 269.00. Original price is PhP 299.00.

What can I say? I just love the color Peach!

The next three products came from the same brand. I've only tried one product from them and I wanted to try more. So I grabbed the opportunity to get them while on sale.

Pink Sugar Sweet Cheeks HD Cheek Color in Sin City and Concrete Jungle

Got them for only PhP 374.00 each. Original Price was PhP 499.00.

I'm on a look-out for awesome highlighters! I hope these will work well.

Pink Sugar Creamy Matte Lipstick in Sangria

Got this for PhP 349.00. It wasn't on sale. :P

I'm currently loving dark lipsticks so I just had to get one and chose this deep plum shade. :D

Black Beauty Hot Oil with Vitamin E

Got it for PhP 133.00 from PhP 148.00.

It's Skin Power 10 Formula VC Effector

Got this for PhP 685.00 from PhP 779.00.

Vitamin C on my skin really brightens it and just works wonders on it. I hope it works as well as Ciracle's.

And those are the items included in my mini haul. I've swatched and tried out some of them and I'm really satisfied. I can't wait to share my reviews with all of you.

I'm also very satisfied with BeautyMNL's fast service and awesome deals. I'm sure to buy again soon! :D

Skin Pampering with Leaders Insolution Vita Bright Mask

Hello lovelies!

How was your Christmas celebration? I hope that you were able to enjoy the festivities. After all the Noche Buena, going out late at night with friends and family, and even attending the simbang gabi, we might be depriving our bodies with sleep during the past few days. I'm currently feeling the need to catch-up on my needed rest because during the past couple of days, my sleep lasted for around 10 hours, when I usually sleep for only 7-8 hours.

The 'tiredness' also showed on the skin. Mine was looking dull and I did get some zits (the food and my period probably contributed on this too). That's why I am pampering my skin with...

 Leaders Insolution Vita Bright Mask

A mask is PhP 98.00.

So according to the packaging, it promises to brighten and even skin tone. That's great since I am trying to get back the natural glow of my face. :D

For more info, here's a photo of the product information found at the back of the packaging. I'm glad that it has SOME english labels because many Korean products don't. Unfortunately, many important infos weren't, like the precautionary advice and ingredients list.

The packaging is a bit different from the usual Korean products that I see. It's not cutesy but it still looks eye-catching. Since the packaging is slightly bigger, I thought that the sheet may be bigger. It was a good sign for me because I have a big face.

But as you can see, it didn't reach the end of my jaw. But hey, it fit my face pretty well in terms of the eye, nose, lips, chin, and even forehead areas. I just added some essence from what remains in the container on the sides of my face that was not covered by the mask. Take note that I really have a big face and I think it fits better on majority of people. Haha!

Apologies for the duck face as well. And yes, I'm wearing a blue-green floral daster. :P

I had the mask on for 20 minutes. I really like how it feels when wearing face masks because I feel so relaxed. The mask didn't fell off and I'm happy that it didn't tore when I was unfolding it. Some mask sheets are so thin that when I unfold it after opening, some gets torn off. This one didn't and it held the essence quite well—not much dripping from the sheet happened. 

I also liked how it smelled. It's so mild that it won't become irritating unlike some strong-scented face masks. If I have to describe the scent... maybe it's kinda fruity? I'm not very sure because I'm bad at describing scents (lol).

Hello bare face! Haha! Yeah, I have to fix some redness and some acne here and there... but look at how hydrated my face looks! I also think that my skin looks less dull than before I had the mask on. So yeah, I think it helped brighten the face, but the evening-out the skin tone part, I guess it may show if I continue using this mask for more than once. 

The remainder of the essence I applied on my neck and my arms. My skin felt very soft and I feel very relaxed. It helps if you are in a cool, air-conditioned room. 

I'm definitely satisfied with the mask and I can't wait to try out more from this brand!
