Birth Month Collective Haul- Affordable Makeup, Hair Care Products and Tool + Rotating Cosmetic OrganizerJust because September is my birth month (September 2 to be exact), I had an excuse (coughs) to buy those things I badly wanted to buy but chose not too since they aren't part of my budget :) It's my birthday so I received b-day gifts which I, myself chose :) Without further ado, let's get into my birthday haul :) WHAT I GOT 1. e.l.f. Makeup Mist and Set I bought this item last month as my early bday gift. I got this from KeringKeri Store, an online shop that has been in the online selling world for quite a while. If I'm not mistaken, this cost me Php 250. What I love most about this Mist and Set spray from e.l.f is the fact that it's cruelty free. ALL e.l.f. products are cruelty free, actually. Also, it helps my face look a little dewy and fresh especially after I set my foundation with powder. However, I just wish that the dispenser has finer holes for better misting since sometimes it dispenses like crazy! it will really make your face look soaking wet. 2. Bun Maker I actually got this along with the e.l.f. mist spray from the same online store. This easy bun maker is priced at Php 50. It's cheap yet does a good job in helping me create that neat and lovely bun on my hair. 3. San San Everyday Cheek Tint Oh how I love this product! This really gives you a natural tint on your cheeks that would last the whole day. This would also help you save money since one bottle may last for more than a year, I believe. Why? because a little goes a long way. You may get this Cheek Tint in all HBC stores for Php 133. 4. Shawill Perfect Lip Liner Pencil I purchased this Lip Liners from Watsons very recently. I first saw this from Izza Glino on YouTube and I was intrigued since they are sold for only Php 59 pesos. Pretty affordable for a lip liner. The shades that I got are "2" and "3"--very simple name shades:) Review on these lip liners will soon be up here in my blog. 5. Nichido Promo Pack- Eyeshadow and Blush Palette Plus FREE Lip Blush I am not an eyeshadow person but I would like to explore more on this part of makeup application. Now since I am a neophyte on this, I think it won't hurt if I would start learning and experimenting using a Php 100 Eyeshadow palette. This package is actually a good deal since you will get to have a FREE Lip Blush. I'm thinking of also doing a review or maybe first impression for this palette. 6. Verdon NE Keratin Hair Spa in Aloe Vera and Coconut Milk Since I got these Hair Spa products, I never used any commercial conditioner again. I have purchased both online in Shopee from a seller named prettyangelshoppe. I first got the Coconut Milk but I was actually eyeing for the Pomegranate scent. Since I failed to place a note for the seller when I checked out, what I received was the Coconut Milk . I actually love the Coconut Milk scent and it really does a great job in making my hair texture smooth. Thus, I made another purchase and this time, I intentionally got the Aloe Vera variant since I read good reviews about it. If you have issues with dry, frizzy, and tangled hair, this product is for you. I got each for Php 155, by the way. 7. NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream I have been meaning to buy and try these lip creams from NYX. I particularly would like to try Milan, Prague, and Addis Ababa. Fortunate enough, I was able to get two of the shades I like from NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream Line: Addis Ababa and Prague. I also got them on Shopee from seller missglam0razzi. I got mine for Php 290 each since it was on sale. These are also guaranteed authentic. 8. Everyday Minerals 11pc Brush Set This was given to me by my boyfriend as one of his birthday gifts :) This is my first legit brush set and I so love them! Though there were a few "hair fall" the first time I used these brushes, I can say that this is still a good set. These brushes function very well and are amazingly soft. My boyfriend also got this online for Php 695 :) 9. Glam Caddy Cosmetic Organizer A gift from my brother which he also purchased online for Php 470. I love how it can organize a number of my stuff from the small ones to the medium ones :) Since it's priced at Php 470, the material of this organizer is not acrylic but plastic. What I consider amazing about this is that it rotates like the lazy susan table. Thus, I never had a hard time locating the item I am looking for. 10. Shawill Two Way Eyebrow Cake I am not a fan of brow powder when doing my brows. However, I would like to try something new and find out how my brows would look like if I will be using this brow powder on top of a brow pencil or just this brow powder alone. I did not have a chance to use this yet but I will definitely update you on my thoughts for this Eyebrow cake. You may get this product to any Shawill counter for Php 128. 11. Careline Color Pencil in Brown Here's an affordable brow pencil for those on a tight budget and would love to make their brows look on fleek. Check out my review on this product to see if this is hot or not. There you go, those were the things I got for my birth month. I consider them not just gifts for myself on my birthday but also a reward for all the hard work I do every single day :) You may want to do the same for yourself once in a while or perhaps once a year :) Review on some of the products above will be up on my blog soon. -JEN- Like my FB page here to be updated on my latest blog posts. |
