Haul of The Day: Indonesian Brand Lipsticks

This would be my last post from Indonesia as I'm leaving tomorrow, going back to Oahu land. I've had so much fun at home, really sad to leave my family again but I know I'm gonna see them again one day so that thought should tide me over. Anyway, to keep this blog to be makeup-related, I'd like to share some of good find.

I was with my mom, out shopping and I saw these lipsticks galore at one counter. When I found out they're all Indonesian brands so I thought, hey why don't I give them a try? They're fairly cheap ($2-$3) and the color selection was pretty decent. So out of several brands, I picked out 3 lipsticks from different brands.


The box is pretty cute ♥

Swatches



Wardah (Glazing Plum) is a Hydro Gloss, so although it's bright in the tube, it goes on pretty sheer on lips. It also contains mineral oils (goes on very smooth) which helps chapped/dry lips.

Pureglow (Majesty Brown) is more concentrated & goes on smoothly. I like this color because it gives the MLBB color. The finish is fairly creamy.


Another one I picked up is a brand called Aubeau. I have this illness of picking the same color over & over again so please bare with my boring color choice here =)

I really like how they have "Aubeau" printed in the tube


The color called Light Beige and it has a matte finish, I really like the subtle coral color because it matches my skin tone pretty well.


That's all for now, I'm pretty happy with my find although I didn't really shop makeup too much. I'm trying to shop my own stash now, but if you missed my couple of last posts where I spot an interesting find of FAKE MAC, try click here. Will blog soon!!!!

Update & fake MAC !!!

I'm in Jakarta now and probably had eaten half of all the food here. Seriously, all I've done is eat eat & eat more. The flight was not so bad, although it was SOOOOOOOO long (18 hours back to back) and I experienced at least 5 turbulances and it kinda made me sick in the stomach lol Other than that, I'm happy to see my family again, and my friends from college showed up at the airport to see me.....they're so nice!!!! Ai, I was really happy to see you =D remind me to bring the omiyage next time we meet, k? lol

So I thought I wouldn't be able to blog as much now ever since the connection from Indonesia had been so terrible, but apparently my mom installed internet at home and it was pretty darn fast, so here I am blogging again *honestly, I just couldn't stay away from you guys hahahaha*

I'd also like to share you something interesting I found at my mom's makeup drawer, she told me she found a fake M.A.C and HAD to buy it just because it's so obvious that it's fake and the pigmentation is pretty decent.

I saw it and I cracked up.....it really looks fake!! The M in the M.A.C logo is the only noticable differences but of course I've never seen MAC releasing this type of quad. So without further ado, here's how it looks like



these are one swipe O.O pretty awesome, eh?

So I'll be updating once I have some new stuff to blog about hehe. Until next time!
