SK-II Skincare.

Yes, I've heard so much rave about SK-II skincare and have been tempted to give it a try since forever!

Sadly, I have been putting it on hold as I didn't want to start too early (their pdts seems to target > mid 20s) and it's simply too expensive. 
But recently, I found some sk-ii sample products (gentle cleanser, clear lotion, mask-in lotion, facial treatment essence, deep surge ex) in some of my subscribed beauty parcels. 

To cut it short, I felt my skin is really becoming better!

After the sample bottles finished, I continued purchasing samples of their clear lotion (toner) and fte as I liked this combination the best. Can't really comment on it's individual effects as I used it as a combination. However, my skin feels much more cleaner and smoother (at least lesser bumps). Best of all, it doesn't adds irritation to my super sensitive skin!
While I'm loving it, I have been hearing that one shouldn't continuously use their products for too long a period as the skin tends to be 'addicted' and skin may 'act up' once you stop using it. So to be safe, nowadays I'm trying to use them only on alternate days (hopefully this works?).

Mini Haul Overtimeeee

Dingdongggg, time for updates!!! ^-^

Time just flew past and it's already mid June, GSS!

Okay this year I've more control over my purchases.. Lesser wants, more needs!

Did I mention before I now have a love/hate rls with bbcreams? Ever since my Baviphat bb cream is finished (almost), it's been so tough finding another comparable one. :x

Was considering a number of bb cream and somehow i ended up with ZA.
Was having high hopes as I saw review that it's good. No tester on the shelf so I bought it home to test, somehow I find the shade a little too orangey/peachy for me.. :x Will do a review soon, promised! 

Not satisfied. I was on the lookout for alternatives and happened to receive sample of Ettusais bb cream (shade 20). Tried and tested, feels not bad.. only thing if seems a little harsh/dark (v. slight) on my face. Thus, i went on to buy in shade 10! *praying hard it suits me*

And thanks to Vaintytrove, I managed to 2 freebies as well ;p

Been using for a few times, so far so good. But, it seems to dry very quickly and hence needs a quick hand (and mu base). Two thing I like the most about this bb cream is the yellow-based shade and it's baby pink packaging! ^-^ *Ahemm, will do review too! Promised promised!*

Moving on to sales, I went to Kanebo sales on Wednesday~

I swear I'm really conscious of my purchases this time round. 

Though in short span of less than half an hour, I've a total damage of $67... (I can explain my purchases!)

Looks a lot? It's actually just 3 items (box and item side-by-side).

Freshel Whitening Essence Cream. It says to target spots and is more concentrated. Just what I need to battle my badly pigmented skin!
Have yet to start on any of them, but seriously hope it works.. And, call me noob.. it's my first seeing a tube with such opening... looks pretty interesting isn't it?

Lunasol Tu Makeup Base. Apparently according to the Kanebo SA, this Tu mu base is newer and allows mu to adhere much better to the skin. This is a need. My current RMK mu base is emptying very soon and without mu base, I feel that my mu just doesn't last as long and tends to be either a little drying or oily over certain areas... Good or bad, I guess I will know this very soon! 

Lunasol Modeling Liquid Foundation in Y002. Lastly, a long-time-crave-finally-satisfied buy! ;P

Phew~ after so long, i'm finally here again to update!
But there's so many things I want to share, ok so I've decided to start from the latest instead! =D

*Pic 1st*
mini haul from John Little and Watsons~

John Little is having sales --> 20% Storewide plus additional 20% off selected pdts!!! Was thinking of using this chance to grab some wants, then I realise there's not much on the list.. And so I controlled my spendings! They are all my "needs" not"wants", I can explain!! =P Needs like Essential Shampoo, Express Cleanser and Biore Sunblock (last bottle in white, dig out from below others wahahah) as I've already used them up.. Just 3 pdts and it's over $30, and got me a free pack of Nude wedges! Anyone tried it before?

Popped by Watson to get my eyebrow liner since JL don't sell Spring Heart pdt. No discount no nothing.. =( But I still got it anyway.. It's a need not a want! lolx.. Ok so I got a small bottle of cleanser as well, need to put at my boi's place. ;p The house brand cotton pad is for making up the $15 so i can claim the points.. wahahah Shhhhhh...

And recently I got a new toner! My previous toner either finished or too harsh.. But i need a toner and spot corrector and so... tadaaaa~ I got this.. *see below*
From the bestbuy-world.. It's good! >$50 and it's free delivery~

<3

Before you get it wrong, not all is mine ok.. At least the Hydra zen moisturiser is not! That's my boi's sis's.. I got myself the Lancome toner 50ml x 4 = 200ml, and the 10ml spot corrector.. 

That's all for today's update!
