May-June (2017) Haul

Hey dolls!

I've been having troubles deciding on my next steps in life. Haha! I am still nowhere near completing my thesis for grad school and I dunno if I should start a business or find a higher paying job. LOL 

One thing is certain, I still like buying beautiful things. And that is why I need to decide ASAP! #PressureMuch

Anyway, here are the latest products I added to my beauty and also art and home supplies:

First off, my package from Althea last month:

Healthy Vinegar Skin Toner in Wine - PhP 480.00

It's in wine!!! Haha! Well, I have read that apple cider vinegar is good for the skin so even though this is not exactly the same thing, might as well give it a try. Haha! 

Nightingale Eraser Toner Daily Derma Astringent in Fresh Peach - PhP 770.00

I actually just browsed Althea in search of a new toner so that I can just join in with my officemates in their order so that we don't have to pay individual shipping fees. I ended up buying two toners and other things. LOL

4D Pore and Balance Solution Foam Cleanser - PhP 240.00

It's My Cushion Case in Pink - PhP 235.00

I've been intrigued with this since I saw it some months ago. I have some extra foundations and skin care lying around that I want to finish and I thought that I can create a personally mixed cushion. 

Tony Moly Panda's Dream Eye Patch - PhP 50.00

Because eye patches are LOVE!

During the start of the month, I shared a press release from Daiso showing some of their new items. The post also got me interested to check them out again and I bought some stuff!

Markers and Drawing Ink - PhP 88.00 each

A drawing ink that's affordable at that size! Woot! Gonna share some of my works using that soon. ;) 

Mini Dustpan and broom

Kitchen Sponge for bottles (I use this for my big thermos)

PhP 88.00 each

Laundry Bag and Baby Wipes

Handy for traveling!

Cooling Mat for pets

PhP 88.00

My pet shih tzu loves using this! 

Yoga Mat - Php 88.00

It's not as thick as I want it to be but I actually have an older one (that's as thin as this one) that I place underneath this.

 Dishwashing liquid - PhP 88.00

I also bought other items like a hand bag with red stripes design, some cake and chocolate decorating tools, and an ice cream scoop!

 Human Nature Natural Feminine Wash in Chamomile Cool

I forgot the price. Haha! My friend Helen recommended this. I have yet to use it as I'm finishing the one I currently have.

It's also my first time visiting a Mumuso store! I went to their Fishermall branch. These are the items I brought home...

Banana Milk Beautiful Skin Shower Gel - PhP149.00

 The smell is soooooo gooooood! I even use this as hand soap so I can smell it often. Haha

Spring Hydrating Spray - PhP 88.00

I like facial mist and I just got curious about this one because it is unscented. I actually like fragrant once but I have an officemate who doesn't like floral scented ones so just for the office, I have an unscented one. 

Not in the photos are a square handle comb and cotton pads, both PhP 88.00

And finally, I took advantage of BeautyMNL's mid year sale. Wooot! 

 PRO Studio Beauty Exclusive 10-Piece Expert Class Oval and Linear Brush Set

PhP 999.00 from PhP 2,800.00

I've always wanted a set. I like the finish of my makeup when I have this brush. I alternate it with my beauty blender.

Maybelline Fashion Brow Mascara 

PhP 174.00 from PhP 249.00

My brows badly need this.

#InWithTheBold Bundle 1: 

1 Listerine Healthy White (500ml) + 2 Maybelline Loaded Bolds (Pitch Black & MidnightDate) - PhP 599.00 from PhP 823.00

I AM IN LOVE WITH MIDNIGHT DATE! Stay tuned for the swatch post! 

And that's all the products I bought! Haha! Which ones are you most excited about for a review? Let me know!

Cheers,

Hey everyone!

Sharing my new acquisitions for this month. They are mostly organic products and most were bought so that I can bring them with me during my 3 week vacation in the US.

Many of them are hair care products too because I just got my hair colored a few weeks ago and I also got it permed last April.

I like the cooling effect and it really makes my hair softer.

I can't say that this helped with my hair growth. I've almost finished the tube but I don't see much difference. Or maybe I need to wait? :P

Le Vina Pimple Remover

I can't remember the price and I haven't used this yet so I can't say anything about it's effectivity.

I like the scent but this deo is too mild for me. :(

All Organics Hydra Mist - Around Php 150.00? Not so sure.

Some stuff for the doggies :P

Bought a Pavlova Cake for Mother's Day from Bizu

And I got these skincare freebies with the cake from Clinique! Cool huh? I gave it to my mom but she said she doesn't use these and they're better off with me. :/

My May Salad Box (Missha Box)

Hi guys!

I finally received my Missha Box!

This is more expensive than the usual Salad Box. 

It retails for PhP 800.00 but if you subscribed for at least 3 months, you get it for only PhP 500.00.

Here's the box's description from the website:

The SaladBox Take
Our very first collaboration box, the Missha box contains seven (7) luxe product samples from Korea's number one cosmetic and skincare brand.

Receive three full-sized products (one makeup and two skincare), two deluxe sized samples (skincare), and two trial packs (one makeup and one skincare). A rose water skincare product, a cute-and-classy lip gloss, a refreshing face mask, a stem cell control emulsion, a firming concentrating emulsion, an immortal youth serum, and, of course, Missha's best selling BB Cream.

How It Works
Purchase this PhP2,000-worth limited edition box separately for just PhP800.00 or subscribe for at least three months, receive it by the end of May (or earlier!), and indulge yourself with everything Missha!

It took a while to get delivered. It's already mid June when it arrived. I saw on Facebook that there were problems with courrier (again) and had to change or something. But oh well. :P

So let's move on with the unboxing!

I had hope for a different looking box but it was still the same classic, green one. :P

There's the classic card that explains what the items inside are all about.

Here are the list of the products with descriptions and their prices in full size:

Below are the pictures of the items. I have arranged them according to the list above. Just refer to the photo for the name and details. :)

(Yay! Full-size!)

I expected more makeup for this box but right now I'm on the skincare phase so I was still happy with the contents. Though I wished I received a different full-sized item! Hahahaha! 

What do you think of The Salad Box's Missha box?

If you bought this, did you get the same items too?

Cheers,
