Haul: Retail Therapy

Hi everyone! I've been feeling a bit stressed lately and we all know what the best de-stresser is, right? SHOPPING! Oh, yeah, and winning giveaways, too! :D

Yeah, so at first I was too busy to go out of the house so I just decided to order some stuff online from MeTime Manila. Then I remembered that I needed to buy new shoes so off to the mall I went. 

Oh, by the way, I also won Sugar's giveaway! Yey :D

Here are the stuff I got.


Items:
EOS Lip Balm in Sweet Mint - from Sugar's giveaway
Feather earring (Nicola) - P75
Interlocking bangles - P100
Nichido Girls' Night Out Eye Pencil in Blackest Black (01) - P80
Marionnaud N'9 Slanted Eyeliner and Eyebrows Double Side Brush - P119
Cream jars and spatula - P34.75
Tomato black sandals - P500
Tomato purple ballet flats - P450

So first is the EOS lip balm that I got from Sugar. Thanks Sugar! I was sooo happy to win this prize because I've always looked up to EOS lip balms. Never knew I'd be getting my own someday. Haha! And let me just say, I haven't seen my lips crack since I started using this. And the cooling effect, I like!


And here are the accessories I bought from MeTime Manila. This is my fave purchase from them, so far.


I am in love with the earring! I got so many compliments with it. Gotta try those ear cuffs next :)

And these interlocking bangles... I'm in love with these, too! 


I love how they're interlocked with each other. And when I swing my arms, they go kleng-kleng-kleng <3

Then when I went to the mall, I stopped by Watsons to check out the new Marionnaud tools that Sab shared about in her post *here.* And I was like "YEY!" when I saw that they're available at Watsons SM Fairview. Usually it takes quite a while before new products reach SM Fairview. Haha O_O


Anyway, so from Watsons I got the "premium" slanted liner brush from Marionnaud. I love my N'38 brush so I thought maybe I'd like the N'9 too. I wanted a different brush for my eyebrows and for eyeliner, anyway. I also got a black Nichido eye pencil. It's really black, especially when compared to my other black eye pencils, but it smudges on my monolids (even with primer) so I only use it to line my lower lash line. Will post a review of the Nichido liners I have, including the ones I got in my post *here.* I also got some more cream jars and a spatula.

Then I looked around for some shoes. I stopped by Tomato and I actually found a pair of flats that I really really liked. Like REALLY. Too bad they only had two sizes remaining and both were NOT my size! WHHHHHYYYY? :( Anyway, I still was able to find something from there, though. Two somethings, actually. I got a pair of sandals and a pair of closed flats. 


I realized that I didn't have many sandals and that I'd been wearing flats for a loooong time sooooo... 


I like the ragged design :) 

I still bought the ballet flats, though, 'coz I need "closed" shoes for the board exam.


I really felt "de-stressed" after shopping. My wallet didn't, though. :P

Any recent purchases? Share, share, share! :D

Oh, by the way, please check out my personal blog, too, k? :))) (http://missayasays.blogspot.com/)
