The actual name of the mascara is “66 Big Eye Vitcara No. 1 Volumising & Lift” Mascara
The SA told me that it is supposed to be waterproof and volumising. Costing RM 36.90, the applicator of the mascara is bi-combed such that you can use the small one on the other side of the comb to get into hard to reach area such as the corners of the eye.
Today, combined with the use of the Mascara Topcoat, I can say that it last me throughout the half a day that I was out.
Today is one of my short getaway trip to JB for a short shopping trip. I had plan to get some items from Marjolica at Watsons and Etude house. Also I am intent to spend my Padini vouchers before I totally forget about it.
Well, all I can say is that I had overspent (not really but if I include in my pharmacy buys than I had OS!)
IT WAS MAYHAM!! In City Square at least. It looks like Causeway Point, Jurong Point etc (you get my drift) and Singaporeans are all abound! Well, Malaysians too. The Etude SA told me that’s cos there is a IT fair being held nearby. There are alot of people strolling but very little people in the shops buying anything.
I first got a small cup of Baskin Robbins to up my sugar level (its sooo crowded at all the food joints that I had to make do with ice cream first) and then went off to SASA to find my elusive fringe clip (can I find it??)
I was led into SASA by the sale sign hanging outside for Kate Dual Karat eyeshadow at RM 29.90. Of course, you all know that normally that is the least that you are going to buy from the shop. I ended up with a LE brown eye palette from Kate and a graduating blush from Kate (discounted) as well as 2 fringe clips!
I was inspired by this makeup tutorial for Taylor Swift’s Love Story Look and so I went to Etude House to get an eyeshadow that I saw the other time.
Since Singapore does not have any Etude House, it would seem sinful if I just walk out with one eyeshadow. I got a newly released
volumising mascara,
mascara remover and
a mascara topcoat.
By this time, I had almost run out of my shopping budget. But how could I leave out Watsons??
JB Watsons stock MM and Rimmel. They are having a promotion right now till 26th(?) April. Majolook palettes cost RM 49.90 and the new mascara cost RM 39.90. And you get a free honey lip gloss if you spend RM 50.
I was really struggling! To buy or not to buy! In the end I resisted! Cos I fell for a Youngblood Pressed MMU just before I went back to Watsons again LOL! The shop is called Shins and they only stock 4 colors for pressed MMU. I can’t even confirm that the color that I got is 100% my shade. But for RM129, I just cannot resist!
And just before leaving, I HAD to stop by FOS. I couldn’t find anything that I really like and the place was pretty messy. But as my eyes was scanning through the last time, I spied a promising piece, jutting out of the many hangers like a sore thumb.
And lo and behold! What did I find? But a tunic by Sarah Jessica Parker’s Bitten line! How can I pass up such a good buy at RM 27! After paying for the last item, I started on my way home much poorer than I started ;P
Oh and I didn’t spend my Padini vouchers cos I don’t really find anything that I desperately like;)
The Kesalan Patharan Colorful Brush. It is shaped like a lippie and so so easy to bring around for touchups!
The dyed hairs means that those who are iffy about getting color on their white bristles can use it for a longer time before they finally get it to wash;)
Too bad they pulled out of Singapore some time ago. I really love their brushes!
And in more words than one.
Conversation between sup and me:
Sup: When will Uniqlo open in Singapore?
Me: This Thurs. In fact, the whole mall will open with 100% occupancy rate this thurs.
Sup: So what is good from there?
Me: I’m looking at the Skinnies, maybe thinking of getting one.
Sup: Why do they call Skinny Jeans skinny jeans.
Me: Oh, cos the jeans is so tight that when you wear it you cannot eat so you become skinny lor?!
Sup: Is it??
Me: “Doi”
Waiting impatiently for 1pm for the race to start.
It’s weird hearing commentary in Mandarin but then it’s better than nothing and I will get to learn the technical jargon in Mandarin?;P
with Ferraris and the McLarens dominating the top 3 positions. Erm occasionally a Renault or a Red Bull will come in but not often.
Well, that was true until Honda announced their immediate withdrawal from the sport in late quarter last year, very much due to the economic downturn.
There was a mad scramble to obtain news of the withdrawal by all the sporting world (ok, I’m exaggerating) Then afterwards, a mad scramble to find buyer/buyers for the team.
Such a waste really, if the team goes down before 2009 cos the KERS (Kinetic Energy Recovery System) cars were already developed when the First Night Race was happening in Singapore.
Team Boss was left going around and sourcing for buyers. (do note that even though Honda is relinquishing all rights to the team by selling it, they do have a decision making vote as to who they want to sell the team to)
Rumours of the prospect buyer being a Mexican millionaire, Virgin Group Owner etc has been circulating around for weeks but none of them were true.
It looks as if the fate of the Honda team is sealed when just weeks before the 1st 2009 GP were to start, it was announced that Team Boss, Ross Brawn is the new owner!
The team was renamed from Honda to Brawn and given an overhauled look. The white and green liveries changed to a simple white and black one.
And just a week before F1 starts, they confirmed Virgin Group as their sponsor for 2009 (yeah!) and it seems like the budget has already been set for the whole year so whew! What a sigh of relief and boost for the team:)
Today marks the first qualifying for F1 and it was no surprise that both Brawn drivers makes the first 2 qualifying since favourable reports have been made once Brawn started testing on the strips. Its Buttons for pole and Barichello for 2nd.
Discussions with a friend showed that we were both eager to see drivers pitting their skills with each other rather then the constructors pitting their big budgets against each other.
So, its ON WITH THE SHOW tomorrow for the Melbourne GP!
Oh, incidentily Ferrari starts on 7th (Massa) and 9th (Raikkonen) tomorrow while McLaren starts 14th (Kovalainen) and 15th (Hamilton) .
Now that’s why I say the sport is interesting hehehe. Stay tuned!
There are soooo many sales happening right now! Wonder if it’s cos we all got a little bit of ‘shopping money’.
So all over town, John Little sales (20% on top of normal discounts), Tangs 12% rebates, The Body Shop Warehouse sale, I Inouvi 40% discount and the list goes on…..
Here is my little haul this week:
And that’s all for now!:)
