Look What I Bought: Eazy Fashion Edition

Hi! I'm now on Bloglovin'. I think. If you have the extra time, do check it out and lemme know if I'm actually in Bloglovin' or not. ^^ I'm a complete dunce when it comes to putting on widgets in this blog. 

Anyway, you know how sometimes you just want to write your entries and post 'em then all these ads of online shops come popping out screaming "Free Shipping?" Well, a few weeks ago, I succumbed to one of those ads. ^^ But not alone! I have my mom and my sister to share the blame with. ^^

I've been meaning to purchase something from Eazy Fashion for the longest time. I used to browse their website often in college, window-shopping. It was only a few weeks ago when I finally decided to place an order. That's quite a test of my patience and longing for shopping. ^^


We ordered 11 ear caps/dust stoppers (30.00-58.00 Php each; Wholesale price)(7 are my sister's; she gave them away to her friends), 3 card/photo holders with matching coin purses (around 60.00 each), my mom's Samsung hard case (around 300.00) and pink wallet/phone organizer (around 300.00), a neon pink hair scrunchie (around 50.00), hair velcro (2 pcs/35.00)....and a few more items you would no longer see in the picture. ^^

They're not all mine! ^^ *haha* These are "our" orders. The great thing about Eazy Fashion is that ordering was a breeze and they'd answer all your questions promptly and clearly (in my experience, via SMS). Each of their items has two prices indicated: the Retail Price and the Wholesale price. You can get the items at their Wholesale prices (which is cheaper) when you order 6 items (can be assorted). They offer free shipping for purchases   amounting to 1000 Php and above. Shipping fee is not bad too. If I remember correctly, Metro Manila SF is at 45 Php. ^^

We ordered on a Friday, received confirmation, paid thru BDO Deposit the same day, items were shipped on Saturday due to troubles with some items, and we received the items Monday morning. Pretty fast actually. 

I was actually very happy that they informed me soon that there were items in my order that were no longer available since I ordered some on sale items. They asked me if I wanted to replace the items or just have the extra payment register as advanced deposit, which is what I chose since I can't pick out any item. If this happens to you, you can use the advanced deposit on your next purchase.

I think most, if not all, of their products are from Korea, given the stuff written at the back of each item. According to my sister, the items were very well-packed. Each had boxes of their own and were grouped accordingly: boxes in a box, she said. ^^

We'd definitely be ordering again. And they do get new stuff every now and then so do check out their site at www.eazyfashion.com . ^^


Here are the pretty dust stoppers! Can you guess which one is mine? 

Cheerio!

NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Addis Ababa

Hi. My weekend-day will officially be over in a few hours. I don't know how to feel about that yet but I'm kinda getting a hang of it. This review would be on NYX's Soft Matte Lip Cream in Addis Ababa. I bought this from Digital Traincase a few weeks ago. I know of a stall that offers products from NYX but with my computation and the recent 20% off promo from Multiply, I figured I'd save more money if I bought this online. The transaction was a breeze by the way. Received the product 3 days after I made my payment.

I've been wanting to try this lip cream for a long time but since it was a bit pricey, I had to think it over. Then one day I just finally decided I needed a new lip tint/stain/cream. *haha* and Digital Traincase seemed to be one of the best online sellers of NYX. 

I opted for a hot pink hue because my mom said pinks and peaches look better on me than reds, so..








The Verdict: 
I can't exactly weigh the pros and cons of this one on a focused manner so I'm going for an umbrella verdict. ^^ First of, this product is awesome in terms of its finish and pigmentation. I had a coat of lip cream on the picture and it's already showing its great hot pink color. It has blue specks though, when you look very very closely on the mirror. No big deal, I just sort of noticed it. It smells like vanilla cream, which is great. It's long lasting too. Although the color stays on after a meal, it lightens a little and the inner part of my lips loses the color. But it's not that bad to look at but I do reapply. The only thing I'd say to be a bad thing about this is it's drying on the lips. Applying lip balm is an option but it would make it last a lot less than if you would use it on its own.

 I still think it's awesome. Probably one of the best stains I own. I bought this for 273 bucks . That's with the shipping fee and the discount. Regular price at Digital Traincase is 280. I'm actually planning to buy other lighter colors and I'm hoping for another discount promo. ^^.

Have you tried any of NYX's lip creams? Lemme know. Have a great week ahead! Cheerio!

Just Sampling: Etude House Fresh Cherry Tint in Pink

Hi guys. Lately, I haven't been sampling a lot of products. I've been put into a couple of weeks of a bit of a skin therapy by my mom (so no much makeup) because I've developed some rashes from who-knows-where. So, Cetaphil is my best friend nowadays.

My sister gave me this to sample instead. She bought this from online seller Cheeky Posh who sells a lot of Korean cosmetic samples for those who, you know, just wanna try out some products first before buying the full size. I have this in peach (reviewed here).

This has actually two pieces for (my sister's not sure) 20 or 25 pesos. The other one was red, which was very red. A pack is bound to last for about 5 days.











 The Verdict:
It's not so different from my peach one. The milky consistency is the same. It's long lasting and easy to apply. You wouldn't have a hard time making sure it's evenly distributed because  it doesn't stick on your lips fast.

It gives off a light pink color when you put on a little but it can also give you a gorgeous deep rose shade if you put on about two layers. It can last the whole day, and that's against chips and drinks too.

The only thing I don't like about it is that it stings a little the first time you apply it. I still don't know why. And, I got to try the red sample and decided to transfer it on a container. It still had one good use which went to waste because it dried up. I don't know what happened but if you will buy this in sample packets, might as well keep it in the packet.

I love my peach one a lot but I'm willing to give this one in full size a whirl.

Happy weekend guys. Cheerio!

Tony Moly Party Lover Gel Eyeliner in Pearl Navy (#4)

Hi guys. The rain is craaazzyyyy! Anyway, I promised you guys a review of this gel eyeliner that I bought from Ms. Charmaine of Kkochipida (check her website) She's got tons of Korean cosmetics and she sells them at reasonable prices. Haven of Korean cosmetics, I tell you. Plus, Ms. Charmaine is really friendly. I ask her so many questions, but she never fails to answer. =)

Anyway, I found this Tony Moly Party Lover Gel Eyeliner in Pearl Navy on her site, and it was on sale! So, I immediately sent her message to see if it was still available.






It has about 7 colors I think. At least those I that I saw, but I got this one because I wasn't sure if the rest were still available and if they were also on sale. Anyway, navy blue is a good color. I'm not sure how much product there is but I got this for 195 bucks (no shipping fee because Ms. Charmaine was thoughtful enough to squeeze me in on her trip to Trinoma for a meet-up)

Tony Moly Regular Price:348 bucks (Update: actually it 448 Php, so sorry)




Sorry, I kinda tried it out before I had the chance to take pictures


Pros:
1. Glides on smoothly and easily
2. Very, very, very pigmented
3. Great staying power
4. No smudging witnessed
5. As tested, water proof
6. I also like that it has a bit of sparkle so it's not a flat navy blue color

Cons:
None really. But was wearing this one time when I accidentally did a walking marathon under the heat of the sun. I was totally sweating like crazy and went I got home, I noticed that a very, very little eyeliner was transferred to my crease. But since I don't think I would do that walking thing again with eyeliner anyway so, still no peeves here.

BEAUTY TRICK: I learned this from one of my favorite Korean beauty/fashion shows Style Show Fiㄹ (I don't know if it's still airing though and I can't remember if it's Son Dae Shik or Park Tae Yoon who taught it) but one of these make up artists said that to use a gel eyeliner, it helps to put some on your brush for one eye, turn the container upside down, put on the liner, and repeat. Gel eyeliners dry out so easily but it's so taxing to keep screwing on the cap just to keep it from drying out, so just turn it upside down whenever your using it. Same principle, minus the extra work.

I really really like this gel eyeliner. Though it's the first gel one I've tried, I'm absolutely loving it, especially because it stays on all day.

Anyway, keep safe and dry guys. Cheerio!

Look What I Bought #1

Hi guys. Just a quick post here to show you what I bought last week. It was my very first time to try online shopping, and I must say, maybe I should try not to get too excited 'cause I'll definitely end up spending way too much. Anyway, here's a quick view of the things I got












The Saem Ally's Ajell Mousse BB Cream (245 bucks plus 50 for the sf) and the Tony Moly Party Lover Gel Eyeliner (195 bucks) I got from Ms. Charmaine of Kkochipida (check her Multiply account here and her Facebook account here) I actually got to meet her because of the Tony Moly Gel liner. She just happened to be near our area (Trinoma), so it was a great opportunity. She's very lovely,and she's very nice. The transactions I made were a breeze. The mouse BB got delivered about two days after I made the payment. Plus, her products are very affordable and most products have prices that are way lower than what we have here. So, if you're into Korean cosmetics like me, check her site out. =)


Anyhow, the Ever Bilena Eyebrow pencil (50 pesos) and the fruit nail decorations (29.75) were from Landmark, but my mom paid for them. Funny what "pleading eyes" can do. =)


I decided not to take pictures of the pair of pants and belt that I got from For Me. They were both on super sale. The pants were priced at 998 but I got them for 298 and the belt was at 298 but I got it for 88. I just got lucky. =)


I promise to do reviews on these products as soon as I get the chance. What about you, any hauls? Cheerio!
