What is your latest haulage?

[sweetkitty]

Awww sorry about the leaked nail polishes above, I thought the packaging looked like transdesign.

I got my transdesign order yesterday too! I was so happy, it came in 8 days all to way to Ontario Canada! Woohoo. They ship so fast.

Anyway here is what I got...

left to right: OPi Pinking of You, OPI Coney Island Cotton Candy, China Glaze Light as Air, China Glaze Something Sweet, China Glaze Refresh Mint, China Glaze Lemon Fizz, Essie Van D'Go. Essie Tart Deco, Essie Mint Candy Apple.

Those pastel shades look yummy sweetkitty!! How is Ontario? We were supposed to move to Vancouver two years ago, but still in Melbourne. Are you getting a lot of snow?

Beauty product mini haul today!

I went to the city to pick up a few items today. I got

- Stila Cobalt Clutch Smudgepot
- Mario Bedescu Enzyme Cleansing Gel
- The Body Shop Wild Cherry Body Butter <3 Yumm!
- Lush Daddy-O Shampoo
- Lush Jasmine and Henna Fluff ease hair moisturizer
- Siss lipstick (B2M)
- Some leggings - not that exciting...

I had a good time. The girls who work at Kit in Myer are always so sweet. I spent 15 minutes talking to them about how and where to buy stuff online, like nail polish, skincare, cosmetics etc... I wish that was my job!

^^ Nice haul Bibi!

Guess what... Transdesign still haven't emailed me back about the nail polish. So I just ordered a single bottle off ebay for like 6 bucks including shipping My OCD just wont allow me to have that dirty, half empty, polish covered bottle in my collection... lol

Small haul for me today... I went to Big W tonight to get some boring stuff for the house and as I walked in I saw they had a huge display of the Revlon Photo Ready Foundation so of course I had to grab a bottle.. I hope it's the right colour :S My bf was being a pain in the butt and rushing me so I had to match it in like 2 seconds flat...

I also went to Riot and got an adhesive magnetic sheet and a large round hole punch so that I can depot a stack of e/s and put them in my palettes

The girl at the store asked me what I wanted those items for, and when I explained she turned around to me and said "wow, you're weird" !!!!!!!!! I wanted a hole punch and a magnetic sheet, and I'm weird????? lol Can you imagine what she would think if she saw everything that goes on here? hahahahahaha


EDIT: Small rant - again! - I went to Big W and Priceline tonight because I noticed that the Maybelline Colour Sensation Lipsticks are out and I wanted a few.... And, of course, they were missing 11 of the colours (no displayer for them or anything - even though the poster says "44 brand new colours" or some crap) and of course all 5 of the colours I have been lemming were part of the 11 missing ones! Why do cosmetic companies do that to us!!!! Why cant they just release a line in full instead of this piecemeal crap???? Ok rant over...

 

[sambibabe]

^^ Gosh, that Riot girl sounds like a major PITA!

Maybe Myer might have a better selection of those lipsticks??

 

[aussiemacluvrrr]

^^ Good call Nat.. I hadn't thought of Myer.... I think I will check out my local Target as well.. They always seem to have the the full line of colours for most of the brands... The colour I want the most is #025 "Pink Please" because I heard it is a pretty good dupe for Way to Love l/s from Rose Romance... And that is one of my fave l/s.... So I want to see how good a dupe it is...

 

[panda0410]

^^Way To Love is one of my faves as well!! I got two in B2M, using one, and one backup for later

 

[sambibabe]

If you can't find it here, you can always ask your CP person to get it for you.. Apparently a lot of US stores have buy one and get one for free offer.

^What the hell, why is that weird?? I would have questioned her logic. Weird would be something like purchasing the magnets because you have some taxidermy animals that you are going to attach magnets to so you can stick them to metal fixtures around your house. And as for the hole punch... well how else are you going to make mini-cookies to feed to the neighborhood magpies and mice?! I dare you to find an easier way Riot girl. I dare you!

 

[simplyenchantin]

People are morons, end of story. Also, I think your hole punch idea is brilliant, Carina. I just cut weird circle shapes by hand LOL.

 

[spectrolite]

Last haul for the week, Makeup and Glow yayyyy!

I got:

- Brush guards in S/M/L
- Yaby Liquid Foundation
- Some empty containers for mixin lip tars
- An OCC pigment for a friend
- a free Rosebud Strawberry lip balm woohoo

I was nearly out of my current one, so thanks Rachel!

Next week more Hakuhodo brushes are arriving and then I gotta save for Spring Colour and Liberty of London... oh and the MAC F+F sale, and winter boots, and a new computer.... and the list never ends... always buying more STUFF

 

[simplyenchantin]

I can't wait to buy stuff ahha

Bibi, you have had me in stitches with your last few posts! You are one funny lady I would have said something to her, but I have zero witty comeback skills. I just stood there with my mouth open looking appalled

lol thats what I had been doing as well... But I have to admit I stole the idea off someone here on Specktra I think.. Or maybe you tube... I cant remember

I went to Kit yesterday and found a gorgeous brush roll, blue striped canvas with a red button to fasten. So cute! And a bargain for $34.95

my one dilemma- I can't fit all my brushes in even after an attempt at downsizing! Maybe I need a second just for my eyeshadow brushes..

 

[rockin26]

I only use my brush roll on jobs otherwise they sit in 1 of 2 pencil cups, I find it easier having them out in site and it takes up less space, smiggle make cute tin pencil cups in pretty colours too!

I don't think I'd fit all my pro and personal brushes in one roll?

 

[spectrolite]

^OMG Smiggle >_< Brilliant idea! I've been looking for some cute cups for my brushes

I'll check it out during the week.

 

[sambibabe]

Went and picked up two Love Lace shadows today..
My local store now has all NEW MUAs and one of them argued with me today that you can only B2M for none LE lipsticks! Ringing up the manager tomorrow morning

 

[xLongLashesx]

Yep I tried the cup thing! I had three, one for face brushes, one for eyes and one for pencils but found I spent half the time spinning them around to find a brush that had somehow hidden itself between the others! LOL..

Having a roll makes it easier as it can sit on my lap and I slide them in and out as I go.

The other reason is that I'm moving house soon and want to keep my expensive brushes safely out of sight of the girl i'm living with

 

[spectrolite]

Two beautiful, soft, sexy Hakuhodo brushes arrived today. I got:

B100 - Large angled finishing brush
B110 - Blush brush

That ought to do me for a while. Buying brushes is seriously addictive... and expensive.

I totally agree. I think all my money went to brushes!
