Ok, this is the last haul entry for tonight. There was some hesistation in posting this entry, as I wanted to wait for a couple of stuff to arrive, but oh well, I am on a roll tonight, and so here we go! (I also wanted to wait for some natural daylight to swatch the nail polish, but that has to wait til over the weekend -- I seem to be waking up super early and getting out of the house!) These are some products which friends have helped me purchase, and also from online sprees.
First, we have a travel exclusive Chanel quad. Not sure the name, but it is a neutral, and all the colors are sprayed with the chanel logo. And my friend helped me to get it at staff discount price. Woots! Sad to say I haven't swatched them yet, and I am pretty sure the gold overspray will all be gone after a few uses.
And next, are some MAC items from Michelle's spree. I got only 3 pearl glide liners, and I paid S$50+ which is a good deal, as they will retail for $70+ at local mac counters. You must have seen tons of swatch images of these, so I shan't go into color details but what I like about these, they are pretty smudge proof after they dry and set. I already have Blackline from previous collection, and Black Swan looks just like Black Russian -- another fave of mine.
And lastly, nail polishes from Priscilla (teaplayground) who bought the RBL polishes during their 50% off promotion. I gave her a long list of colors, so she can choose any one of them during the crazy sale... many of the colors were OOS.. and these are what I end up with:
I was twittering that night I got these polishes, that I have met one of the most most most gorgeous shade, and it's Under the Stars. Amazing to look at in the bottle. It applies a little gritty though, even after topcoat.
Needless to say, my picture does not do it justice.
The other colors I got -- if you are familiar with RBL nail polishes, you will have seen them before:
apparently, I think I need more grey polishes. LOL -- this is one of my alternate colors, in case the rest are OOS...
RBL Stormy
RBL Frugalista
RBL No More War
mustard + camou + army
and lastly, jumping on the OPI Burlesque wagon, I got Bring on the Bling, for $10 during Priscilla's blog sale.
It is so saturated with bling and glitter, I guess I can't resist after all.
That's all, and thanks for looking!
i want to get deborah lipmann's polishes but i have no idea going
about to ordering it cos i dont like to deal w complicated shipping and all. so i'll put that aside. haha, i know right, cos after awhile, you are always getting back the same usual colors. i
really really want to get BB couture, they have very nice, neutral, earthy brown shades but they also do really nice jelly looking polishes but at $9 usd each w/o shipping, they are a tad too
ex for most people. i bet you will love spa ritual and nubar too, but likewise, they are on the higher end range, not as ex as rescue beauty (normal priced) or deborah but not as cheap as china
glaze or OPI.
