I’m BACK!

Dear readers, 

My sincere apologies for the absence. The wedding’s finally over, and I’ve just moved to Melbourne, thus I was really busy the past couple of months.

But now that all of those are over, I can finally concentrate on giving you lovely ladies more reviews and beauty-related information! You can bet I’m dying to try out the new products here in Australia. I can’t wait to try out brands like Becca, Napolean Perdis, and even stuff we do not get back home like Cover Girl. Oooooh, I’m so excited!

So do stay tuned, and I shall be right back with more stuff.

Stay beautiful!

Love,
Tine

Laura Mercier Eye Colour Quad

I want this real real real bad.   

Laura Mercier Eye Colour Quad

Description:

Laura Mercier Eye Colour Quad combines four exclusive, complimentary colours with the must-have hues for the sultry trend of spring into one portable compact. Crease-resistant and extremely long-wearing, each shade glides on effortlessly to provide the most luxurious, silky feel for a rich, beautiful application. Colours featured in the Seduction Collection include Shy Violet and Wild Violet. 

Folks in KL who have access to Laura Mercier, is this out yet? It’s USD38; any idea how much this is here? This is the sucky bit of not staying in the capital; the good stuff aren’t easily available 🙁

I covet, I covet, I covet.

1. Paula’s Choice 1% BHA Gel

  • About 60% left.
  • It retails at S$32; selling at S$10.
  • Works as a chemical exfoliant that removes clog pores, blackheads and whiteheads.
  • Supposedly good for millia as well.
  • Improves skin texture.

2. Laneige Star White Essence.

  • About 80% left.
  • It retails at S$78; selling at S$35.
  • It is the essence of Laneige’s Whitening Range.
  • I bought this to improve my skin dullness and turned out that it is a little too rich for my skin at the moment.

3. Dermalogica Barrier Repair.

  • Used only three times.
  • It retails at S$72; selling at S$45.
  • This is really new, bought only three weeks ago. It was a mistake buy. Way too rich for my skin.
  • Good for dry, sensitive skin to help repair the NMF levels and skin barrier. Acts as a good primer too.
  • Skin feels soft after application. Pores seems visibly smaller.
  • However, I do not recommend those with oily combination skin to get this.

4. Ettusais Medicated Acne Body Whitening Mist. SOLD!

  • Not opened at all. Can see from the above picture.
  • It retails at $38; selling at S$28.
  • I had a bit of a hormonal problem, had breakouts, and sadly, my back was not spared. However, before I can finish the first bottle, my back has recovered totally (thus, second bottle not needed, and the first one’s taking ages to finish).
  • Bought this as I was afraid that first bottle will finish fast.

5. Clinelle Eye and Lip Makeup Remover.

  • Only used twice.
  • It retails at around S$25? (not too sure about the actual price); selling at S$5.
  • Clinelle products did not agree with my skin.

Why?
A lot of products did not agree with Susan’s skin, so she’s letting go some of them at a very low price. Reasons also given for every product mentioned above.

How?
Shipping within Singapore is not a problem. Will discuss P+P (postage and packaging) fees with you if you’re not living in Singapore.
** Good news for buyers from Malaysia – Susan will bear all P+P costs! 🙂 **

Please write to Susan, at happy_feet_321[at]hotmail[dot]com (you can also contact me if you wish; I’ll be happy to liase with Susan on your behalf).
