Online shopping @ Zalora,in collab with Happy Lemon!

Have you tried shopping at zalora?
I have this P500 zalora coupon from purchasing 4 drinks from Happy Lemon,i think you have to purchase atleast 500 worth of drinks to get this.
being the bargain hunter that I am,there's no reason for me not to use this right? teehee!
Okay i browsed and browsed and browsed all their items,looking for something i need and worth spending money for,i wanna maximize the use of this coupon without shelling a lot of dough,besides this coupon is valid for purchases above P1000,accumulated items is fine,perfect!
when i tried to check out my cart,my coupon was invalid =( it was a hassle to call their office,they said,they will get back to me,i didnt get a response within the day,coz u know,i tried using this on the day the coupon expired. hehe...I tried to send an email next and received their reply the next day,i was glad they gave me another code! even my coupon was originally expired, A+ for customer service and fast response!so here's what i got.

Suesh makeup brushes!!!!

Suesh makeup 3-pc dual end make-up brush worth P450

actual photo taken from Zalora

i washed my brand spanking new brushes but already black ink was on my sink,im not sure whether it was from the glue or the brush bristles itself is doing this,nothing from the vegan brush though...

compared to elf eyeshadow brush,suesh's eyeshadow brush is bigger,pity my eyes are too small to use this. (sorry the suesh brush is upside down-the eyeshadow brush is the one below)

the other one is a P600 kabuki vegan brush
ohhh i thought it was going to be this fluffy! but in fairness,they placed two other thumbnail with the correct size of the brush.
The 2nd and 3rd thumbnail is the actual brush you're gonna get.
I was contemplating on the charm kabuki which costs the same,but opted for this fluffier one instead,but sorry my dears,its not at all that fluffy! =(
But atleast it didnt leave black residues on my sink

Overall,the 3 piece brush was soft,fluffiness was just right,but the angled black contour brush was a lil prickly,i must say this is worth it,with the 2 in one brush that you get from each,its quite a steal,for P450 a pack.
although i didnt see any logo or suesh print in any of the brushes,not in the pack itself,its okay,i only paid P500 for both brushes that will originally cost me P1050,using the P500 coupon,im happy =) and not mentioning their shipping is FREE!!!


This was the coupon i got from happy lemon

specially wrapped for the excited me!

visit zalora peeps! here's their fb cover photo.

won a sigma blog giveaway!

My first win in the blog giveaway world!!! yipiiiii and its a sigma F80 brush!!! a flat top kabuki brush.
I won this in sugarpao's giveaway,i had to ask somebody to get this from the post office because this did not came in door to door,sigma was the one who sponsored the giveaway so they're the one's who sent it to me,so it had to come from abroad,good thing our local post office was not in its greedy mood that day,i was only charged a standard fee of P35.
Lovely lovely brush! i have yet to use it but the quality of the brush is superb! its so soft and dense at the same time,good for buffing and applying foundation! liquid cream or powder! just as i came across hollyannaerees video i think this was one of her favorite and also sugars!
thanks sugar and sigma!!!felt so blessed!!!







in comparison with elf powder brush middle and elf stippling brush right end

elf and urban decay

Bought this two,one for a friend-the urban decay primer potion, and the elf stipling brush for me! i was surprised to see elf studio had this brush!!! i had always wanted to buy a stippling brush but the ones i know was expensive,and the stippling brush i was targeting in the etude house sale,was not in stock,so i was really glad to find this!! well its P220 much more cheaper the the etude P400+ i think.
I wanted one for so long because i heard its best for ever bilena blushes,yes! ever bilena! haha..the time that i cannot splurge on blushes or any makeup at all,just because i was guilty to spend on these things than buying my childrens essentials,poor me! haha i had to resort to cheap makeup...i know! we should'nt be scrimpy on makeup for the face,like foundations powders,and that includes blushes,we dont want to put cheap and bad ingredients on our face,but but butbut but :P ....but you know what? what i always say...cheap things does'nt mean its bad quality! i so love this blush! particularly the honest shade,its the best peach coral blush thats so pigmented!!! i heard so many raves about this blushes that i had to buy a stippling brush for it.
stipling brushes grabs the right amount for that unique flush! i'm so tired of pink blushes and this ever bilena is my fave! if you use your fingers or the brush included in the ever bilena blush compact,you'l end up with very unnatural clownish cheeks!
this elf one does the job! my only complain was,the hairs are few,if they would have placed a little more brush hairs,it will be a lil denser and fuller,but i recommend this to anyone whos starting out in makeup and wanted an inexpensive brush for having that blended natural blush.

elf studio contour brush

Bought this brush in my sm north edsa mini haul,was looking for my backup elf blending brush,the classic one, its so good! i had to get another one because i often use my old one in applying contour eyeshadows or eyeshadows for my crease and left without a clean brush to blend harsh lines,its that useful to me,and you cant beat the price! P129.75,the brush can pick up a good amount of eyeshadows,its rounded fluffy tip is good for blending,its soft and doesnt scratch my gentle lids,i use it more than my mac219 contour brush and cant find it in any mall i frequent to,its always out of stock lately,but then i went to sm north edsa and saw the studio line brushes was almost all completely in stock,from the blush brush,angled brush,powder brush,concealer brush,angled eyeliner brush,eyeshadow c brush and they even have the small smudge brush! elf studio line brushe are P249.75@,a lil bit higher priced than the classic line of brushes,but that did'nt stop me from getting the contour brush instead of the classic blending brush! it preformed well,its soft like the blending brush but denser,its also not scratchy,but it outshined by the blending brush!coz'it erases eyeshadows if used for blending. which one's better? for me,you should get both! LOL! well,out of versatility the classic blending brush is still the best!
And oh! another thing,i didnt realized they put a wrong price tag/sticker tag on the product,my receipt listed P224.75,oh well good for me!
