I did quite a fair bit of hauling in September. :p (Sham if you're reading this, it makes me very happy, like how happy a fat kid gets when you bring him to a candy store) So i decided to wait till the end of the month to post up, well i'm a couple of days late, but here's my damage!

So if you're not already suscribed to the Pixiwoo sisters on YouTube, what are you waiting for? Hop along now! So anyways, one of the sisters, Samantha Chapman, created the amazing brushes that everyone has been talking about, Real Techniques and they've been using it constantly in their videos. The one brush that caught my eye the most was the Deluxe Crease Brush which, they have been using for concealer! I loved how flawless it left them and knew right away i had to get them! (Funny because i usually would reach for foundation/blush/stippling brushes first!)

(L-R: Deluxe Crease Brush, Base Shadow Brush, Accent Brush, Eyeliner Brush & Eyebrow Brush)

I also picked up some MAC goodies, a concealer, Moisture Cover in NW20, which i don't particularly think is great. My under eye lines still seems to find a way to show. If you have a good concealer to reccommend, please do tell! I'd be so grateful! Next is a paintpot. I really wanted Painterly but it was sold out so i picked something that was sorta nude-ish too but with shimmer. MAC Bare Study Paintpot. It's BEAUTIFUL! It's stated as a soft beige with gold pearl with a frost finish on maccosmetics.com

Some mascaras next. My sis in law went to one of the private sales and picked this up for me. Been dying to try this Lancome's Hypnose and so glad i got this for just $50! What a steal! Been obsessed with this mascara! Also picked up Clinique's Bottom Lash Mascara from a spree and got it for about $18 after shipping and conversion. Personally, not an item i will repurchase.) Yeah, the wand is tiny and pretty cute. But i could do the same job with a normal mascara wand. -___-

Picture on the right is a comparison of Lancome's Hypnose wand and Clinique's Bottom Lash wand. Cute ain't it!

Lastly, some Sleek palettes. Sleek has been much talked about for their great pricing as well as fantastic payoff when it comes to colour. My first palette was from the Avoir La Peche collection. In fact i got both the palette, Paraguaya, as well as the blush, Pan Tao. So when i saw these 2 palettes launched, i quickly placed an order for them!

My absolute favourite, as many others has loved too, Sleek's Oh So Special palette. With more matte shades this time round, this was right up my alley. :D It's a great everyday palette so if you're looking to invest in a good inexpensive palette, i'd highly reccomend this!

And finally, to close the haulin' i did, Sleek's Monaco palette. Stunning shades! I love how they're bright and i've always believed, by wearing bright colours, you'll feel happy! :) I absolutely adore Aquamarine. Beautiful blue-ish green shade that's totally matte.

I wore bamboo & aquamarine out the other day with a coral lip. So nice and bright! Very summer-ish! (it's practically summer all year round here in Singapore.) Love the combo. Till the next one, have an awesome Sunday ahead! :D

Ola Señoritas! (And maybe some guys too, if you're reading this.)

There's some new followers, a BIG HELLO to you, thank you so much for following my blog and my journey.

Anyways, i've purchased these items over a period of time, hence, Collective. It's not anything new, more like, i finally managed to get my hands on some of these very sought after items thanks to Sg_Beauty and a friend. I have to say though, i love browsing through Sg_Beauty over the weekends, as that's when there's new posts with people selling their stash. Items can be brand new, swatched or even used. So i'm glad that i came across a seller selling her backups for MAC's Stereo Rose and Petticoat MSF. Bought both for $50 each, which i guess is pretty good, since they're brand new and all, and no they are not available at MAC counters at the moment. I actually purchased Stereo Rose first and immediately fell inlove and swore that i will become a MSF junkie. I wanted to get all the MSF's available only because it gave me such a lovely look. But i calmed down, and purchased Petticoat about 2 weeks after.

They both give me such a lovely hue, and i'm so extremely pale, everyone keeps telling me i should get a little tan to add some colour. But these two just gives my cheeks a nice pop of colour which looks so natural too. Love it! Honestly though, i was a tad bit disappointed when i received Stereo Rose, I've seen some with such lovely veinings, with more gold but mine is just bleh. I love it still, but i love love love my Petticoat partially because of its beautiful veinings, (i'm a sucker for anything pretty) and it's lovely on me! I ain't going to swatch them, cuz there must be a million you can find online, they are after all, highly raved about.

I'm glad i've bought these babies.I secretly still wanna own every MSF though. I know, insane.

I also managed to get a brand new MEHR lippie from another seller, i believe its from the Mickey Contractor collection. Its matte, but ain't so drying on the lips. Its kinda like a dirty creamy pink and smells of vanilla. YUMS!

That's all i have for now. The princess is demanding my attention, more like she's demanding food. So that's me signing off. Thanks for reading!

Keep a lookout for that!

XOXO,

holler!

(This is going to be a long post, so enjoy! *PICTURE HEAVY*)

How's everyong been doing? I've had an awesome weekend! :) I finally went for my very first flea market experience on Saturday, and i had such a wonderful time! I think i might just religiously go to a couple more every month! The amount of money you can save when you shop at fleas rather than in the normal retail shops is such a massive difference! Oh, and it's even cheaper than most Blogshops too as they slash their prices even lower for the fleas! A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! Of course, not everything is brand new, some have pre-loved items. But that's up to you if you would like to purchase them. :) I've always believed, "One man's junk is another's treasure". Here's some goodies i managed to get my paws on. :)

(Flea Market was at Club Titanium which is the old club DXO along Esplanade)

What a steal right??! The first one is a tube dress, but with my baby bump, its just a tube top for now. Love the second dress. Showed it to Sham and he said its very Shyna. hahaha. OMG babe! If you are reading this, we have the same taste. Hur. The last dress i bought from my friend Fera who had a little booth there, such a cute dress for $8! I am so into polka-dots now. Unfortunately, i can't quite use the polka-dot dress at the moment. Well i can, but its hell tight for my boobs area. So i guess, that will remain in my wardrobe till after i give birth and perhaps my 'hooters' will drop down in size. It's a shame if i don't get to use it.

(Sorry about the lighting in the shots taken, my camera is all wonky on me now. I think it is almost at its end, it vibrates now, and i can't make it stop. :( Well, it has served me well my Cybershot. 3 years to be exact. I need a new camera. Any recommendations? One of my friends told me that the Canon G11 is good, they have a new one now, G12 i think. Thoughts? )

I also managed to get my hands on some facial masks. Just to try out you know. I got 10 masks for $10! So worth it! I've used 2 already. One for me and one for Sham on Saturday night when we decided to have a little DIY home spa. I loved it. I love the freshness i felt after i took it off and the tightness i felt there after. Its called "My Beauty Diary Masks" from Taiwan. The lady who sells them was telling me how its about $14/$15 at Watsons. So she's selling it for $10 for a box of 10 of the same kind, or you could buy a packet of 10 different types like me to test out different ones. :) If you are interested too, check them out on facebook, Beautilicious-My Beauty Diary I'm sure, if you drop her a message, she'll be more than happy to mail out some to you. :)

On Sunday, Sham brought me to the other Flea located at the Singapore Flyer. Yes, 2 fleas in 2 days. Didn't buy as much stuffs, but i love my items bought! :) Was a good eye opener for the both of us too as we are planning to have our own booth at a upcoming flea to sell some goodies. Sham will be selling some clothes and I would be selling some cosmetics from my online business, Crimson Rose.

Of course, all cosmetics that i will be selling will be slashed down even lower. So i will update everyone on when is the date for that. Sham got excited wen we came across this booth that made/sold charm bracelets/necklaces/rings. You could pick any 3 'charms' and have it made into a charm bracelet for $12.90 so he made one for me. It's too cute!

See! It's a little sausage dog, a rabbit and a little kitty. HAHAH. Its so cute! I love it! Oh right, here's what i got for myself! First up, LUSH SOAP!! It's called "Angels Delight". Very delightful indeed. :D

Out of all the Lush products this seller had, i fell inlove with this one. I love LOVE love the scent. It smells really fruity so much so i wanna eat the damn soap. Cons of the soap, it melts fast. So i cut it into a smaller piece to last me longer. There are little glitter starts in the soap as well which i love. I might be bringing in some LUSH products into my online store. :) Cant wait! They had one of the best sellers, "Honey I washed The Kids" but i wasn't crazy about it. Perhaps next time i shall give it a try and let you lot know.

Since being pregnant, i've pretty much gone mental on soaps. I LOVE SOAPS now. Not that i didn't before, just that i always used normal ones like Dove or something. But now, i am so into this fruity smells, so i have a bunch from Body Shop and L'Occitane and now, my little LUSh bar. :) So if you're ever going to get me pressies, my birthday is this Thursday by the way, SOAPS are the way to go! Cheap and i will be mad happy! :D

And the final product i bought, a new Foundation i've been dying to try. I've come across so many good reviews on it, and when i saw it, i knew i had to have it! Presenting... Tarte ReCreate Foundie with SPF 15. I'm the tone 'Cool Sand' if anyone is wondering.

And you would never believe how much i got this for!!! $12 ONLY!!! I've tried this already, and honestly, i feel one pump of this is wayyy too much! So i used like half a pump, and they say, a little goes a long way! :) It's so hard to resist cosmetics! I am such a junkie! Sham doesn't understand my addiction to it, but it's a girl thing! Besides, i only own one other foundie which is Maybelline Gel foundie which i am not crazy about really. So i'm really glad i got this baby.

Okay now for some baby stuffs! My parents recently came back from New Zealand as some of you should know. And they bought some baby clothes for our little girl which is too cute! This time round, they're more for Daddy. Check it out!

I LOVE THEM! I just hate how cheap baby clothes are in NZ compared to here in Singapore. We pay such an insane price for some things. :( I do however have some juicy deeds to share with you lot! Will let you know in the next couple of days when i finally do head out to buy them.

Anyways, as for how i am doing, i'm doing real good. Only lately, my tummy hurts. I think my baby is changing positions or something and my tummy is stretching like mad, and the stretching hurts. So i try to lay down alot. Is this normal? I sure hope it is. I also have started to feel as heavy as a hippopotamus. I didn't feel it so much before, but now it's as though she gains like a pound each day or something. I'm starting to grow rapidly! It's such a big change from being skinnier. Can't wait till she comes out this little Princess in the making. Almost ending January, which means, April just got a whole lot closer!

This week is going to be an awesome week! For it's MY BIRTHDAY WEEK! YAY!

Toodles!

Love,
