Haul: New Cleansing Oil, New Concealer, Etc.

Apologies for the after-midnight post to readers in India. I was cleaning the whole day today. Okay, mainly my makeup area and bathroom. It's special cleaning, because sometime next week somebody is coming to our apartment "For Inspection", so we want to make a good impression... hehe! 
I went to Superdrug to get only a replacement cleansing oil, but of course the inevitable happened.....
  • L'Oreal Skin Perfection Cleansing Oil ~ My holygrail makeup remover, MAC Cleansing Cleanse Off Oil,  is finishing, so I decided I'd try this less expensive one. It has mineral oil, which MAC doesn't have, btw. Price: £5.32 | Rs.483 from Superdrug.[MAC Cleanse Off Oil Costs £19  | Rs.1724. Sigh]

  • Bio Oil ~  I've been using my old one quite religiously, so only a few drops are. For those who have not heard of this famous oil, it's for stretch marks, scars, etc. Yes, it works! Price: £8.99  | Rs.815 for 60ml from Boots.

  • Maybelline The Eraser Concealer in Nude ~ If you've been going through my wishlists, you'd know this used to be on one of them. It's an interesting concept with a spongy applicator tip that claims to erase dark circles & wrinkles. It's available in 2 shades- Light & Nude. Price: £7.99  | Rs.725 from Boots.

  • Maybelline Color Sensational Lip Liner in Hollywood Red ~ Just a deep cool-toned red lip liner. Price: £3.99 | Rs.362 from Superdrug.

I will let you know how I find them in sometime. They will probably be mentioned in a monthly favorites posts. 


Enjoy your weekend, all. It's so hot here in Scotland these days, it feels like Delhi's fall/spring season. Actually, it feels quite like Shillong (my hometown- Scotland Of The East)
Okay, now I'll go fry some mushrooms & eat lots. I know I've gained weight.... and.... AND....my shoes are fitting better! I guess I gotta eat my way to better shoes! =)

  6. The thing I hate about bio-oil is that is not bio at all! In fact, in France they have forbidden calling it "bio". Ok, it contains some natural extracts, but its main ingredient is paraffinum! You can find better alternatives and more natural than that.
    Enjoy your weekend too, it's also really hot here! :S
    Kisses!

    1. Oh, I never knew the word 'bio' is only for natural products! It works for me so I never thought about alternatives, but it would be good if I found some :)

  7. Wow, I want to try the maybelline lip liner that you got! It is the "normal" type of red that I can use and blend with my pinks to create an ombre lip! www.lovingsunshine.com

  8. The Maybelline concealer has me intrigued. Is it good? Does it do the job? Please let me know, I've been looking for a decent concealer for a while now :) I'd tried their Age Rewind The Lifter foundation. Worst. Foundation. Ever. I'm throwing the whole bottle away.

    1. Oww, I was interested in the foundation too! Will have to use the concealer a few more times before I can say if it's goo :)

  9. I read a lot of good reviews on this concealer, also many make-up gurus use this in their YT videos. i hope they make this available in India pretty soon :)

I ♥ finding little notes in my Vanity Case, so do drop one. I read all of them & I try my best to reply to each & every one of them [check back in 2-3 days =D] but most times it's physically impossible! Either way, I love to hear from you & really appreciate you taking the time out to share your thoughts <3

Thank you for reading! :)
