This morning, I received an sms from a friend asking if I can join her at Galleria and will do bargain makeup hunting. Of course I said yes. We first went to Saizen where she hoarded stuff, including the infamous charcoal masque. The foundation I was raving about is out of stock and so are some blushes and the nose contouring make up. Gah! I ended up getting just the charcoal cleansing foam. Then off to the department store. She really shopped while I only got 2 lipsticks for 25 bucks each. It's a cheap-o local brand and it's cute. I figured if I do not like it, I've nothing to lose as it's only for 25 bucks. Oh, she paid for one of those lippies for me. :P Once we were done, we headed to Gloria Jean's to have coffee where we met up with her S.O. and his friend. They two guys went ahead and we headed to Globe and decided to drop by Watson's. We ended up buying masks. After that, she went back to the office and I headed home. Oh, before I did, I went back to Saizen and grabbed one more tube of charcoal masque. Hehe.
Here's how much charcoal masques are left at Saizen.
The stuff I got for the day.
See the HEFTY price tag? :PThis is a thrifty mini haul because I did not spend more than PHP500 bucks for all these. :P
Have a great evening. Ta! :P
the lippies reminds me of shu's tsumori chisato lipstick collection! hahaha
ReplyDeleteChelle, you're right. Although they reminded me of Revlon Renewist when I first saw them. :P
ReplyDeletei love bargain buys !
ReplyDeletetoo bad i dint get that charcoal mask last time iw as at daiso !next time shud grab one !lol
Hi Vanilla. :P You should really go grab one charcoal masque. :)
ReplyDeletedaming natirang charcoal masks ah. could this be the sign of the waning rave over the charcoal masks?
ReplyDeleteask ko lang sis, peel- off ba ito or wash- off? yoko ng peel- off eh. :p masakit sa mukha.
Martha, I think they just stocked up on it na since a lot of people were looking for it and it was always OOS back then. :)
ReplyDeleteIt is a peel-off mask since it will pull out the blackies and the whities. :)
isn't it great to haul and it doesn't break the bank and heart? Lovely hauls and you are the SAIZEN VIP customer na dapat!
ReplyDeleteHi Nikki! Yes, it is awesome. :P Oh no, the cashier girl doesn't even remember me and asked if I have already tried the charcoal masque. :P
ReplyDeleteHow dare her??? hahahah point your face...right in front of her and say "KATAS YAN NG CHARCOAL MASK" HAHHAHAHAA
ReplyDeletesarap ng bargain! ako lng yata ang bargain hunter na nagwithdraw 2x para mabayaran lahat ng nabili! i'll post my haul in a few. :)
ReplyDeletei am lemming for lotsa saizen stuff bec of ur hauls. :P
ReplyDeleteLove your purchase. I hope I have a friend like your friend whom I can go shopping with. Waa, I miss my sister. Hubby gets impatient kasi whenever I stay long sa Watson's. Dami kasi products dun na must-try. :D As for me, hanggang Watson's muna ako. I hope magkaroon ng Saizen dito. :(
ReplyDeleteNikki, that's funny! Haha! Katas ng charcoal masque! :P
ReplyDeletePusit! May blog ka pala. Bargain make up hunting ulit tayo next time. :D
Makeupjunkie, Saizen is worth going to now that they have lotsa charcoal masque. But a lot of make up are oos. :)
Golden, there she is. twofiveone = pusit. :P There are lotsa treasures at Watson's. :P Let's go shopping! :D
i love bargain hauls. i'm late on my lemming for the charcoal mask, hehe, but i want to get myself one na din. if only there was a nearby saizen to our place! :)
ReplyDeleteMagkakaroon yata sa Pampanga or Tarlac, if I remember the post on GT right, Ida. :P It's fun doing bargain makeup shopping pala. :P
ReplyDeletePusit, mag-online ka. yung business proposal ko. go na.
ReplyDeletehey sis, hehe that's much farther than galle. sa south lang ako, as in alabang. good to know though! :)
ReplyDeleteTsk tsk. Even in blogging it shows how poor my sense of direction is. Haha! :P Sorry, dear. :P
ReplyDeleteHi :) Is the mask really effective in pulling out blackheads? Do you also use the charcoal nose patches?
ReplyDeleteHi Nikki. I find it effective but it's easier to pull out those blackies if I wash my face with lukewarm water to open the pores then wash my face with cold water once I'm done with the mask to close the pores.
ReplyDeleteNo, I don't use the charcoal nose patches. This alone works for me.
Hope that helps. :P
