NOTW and My January Damage! LOL..its a HAUL

Hi dearests!

I'm back with a haul.  From now on, I'll be doing a monthly haul.  That's easier than hauling every time I shop.
I've been bad...I shopped! I think I'm starting to be a shopaholic..OH NO!  I must stop this. LOL

Here are the items I bought this month.

I bought nail art stuffs!  I found this nail polishes with thin brushes at R.Hortaleza.  It's our Sally's beauty supply here in the Philippines.  It cost me 25 pesos for each bottle. Along with that, I also bought a golden nail polish.  This one is Caronia in Golden Sun.  I was planning to buy a yellow milky color but this one cought my eye! it's love at first swatch!  Lastly, I bought this Sassy nailpolish with thin brush as well in Isetan Carriedo for 22 pesos.  It's in the shade metallic purple.

I am soo happy with these purchase because I can do nail art with breeze! oh! I almost forgot, I bought a Bobbie Top coat but I forgot to take a picture of it.  I bougt one because my Chic topcoat is always chipping on me!

I stumbled upon these stud earrings at one of the sidewalks of my town.  These three pairs cost me only 10 pesos.  Cool huh?
 I was in Mandaluyong for a consultation for our thesis when I went to a R. Hortaleza store to buy some sponges for my friends photoshoot when I saw this Careline lipgloss.  This one is different from the other Careline lipglosses in SM because this one comes with a different packaging.  This one comes with a test tube kind of packaging.  I saw this in a haul by Trina (bestsoylatteandme).  I really wan to get this one when I saw it in her video.  The color is 107 and its a pretty baby pink color.  This one is only 60 pesos.

lovely swatch for a lovely lip gloss :)
cute isn't it?
 I finally bought the most raved brushes by Pinay gurus in Youtube and in Blogs, the Marionaud Brushes.  True enough, it is brush made for beauty junkies like me. ^^,

N38 slanted eyeliner and brow brush

 I bought this cute bow headband near our school for 25 pesos.  I feel that my hair needed a little boost so I bought a headband to look pretty.LOL

Cute pink stuffs that I bought. Silk secrets paper soap and Bench's daily scent in Happy Hour
The paper soaps are 3 for 15 pesos and the cologne is 16 pesos for the sample size.
Ever Bilena Advance Crean Eyeshadow in Larissa
I use this as an eyeliner and I must say it's very pigmented!  I might do an in depth review of this product in my next post.

REVIEW: Sassy Nail Art

Sassy colors is a cheap nail polish brand in my place.  I was so excited when I discovered their nail art thingies!   Sadly I dont have alll of the colors but I'm planning on collecting them.  They can be a dupe for artdeco's!


Product picture.  This one is purple with glitters on it



playing around with the product :)
PROS:
  • affordable only cost me 22 pesos
  • locally available, purchased mine at Isetan Carriedo
  • pigmented for the price
  • does not easily chips
  • super thin brush, perfect for nail art junkies
fine look at the brush

CONS:
  • limited color selection
  • a bit thick for my taste

MY RATING:  I really like this product.  I like it so much that I don't care about the cons of it!  I recommend this product and will definitely repurchase it!  I just need to find a long lasting top coat though. HELP! need suggestions :)
