Makeup Haul ~ New Launches + Drawer Organizers


I always get weird looks from the counter people at Lifestyle when I'm buying makeup. I don't know why. Maybe I appear too eager, maybe I walk from counter to counter a bit too crazily - sometimes back & forth to "compare", maybe I look too flustered, maybe I take too long to decide which shade I want, maybe I move to another counter while they are bent over those bottom cabinets looking for a product I asked for (they come back up & hey, where'd she go?!) maybe I ask "New launch? New Launch?" like a vendor in a train - "Bhel puri? Bhel puri?" 

Okay, okay, I'll control myself next time. Before I set foot in the beauty floor, I'll coach myself first:
 "Be cool. Breathe. Neutral facial expression. Walk graciously. Duchess Of Cambridge....."


First counter - Maybelline!

The Magnum Barbie Mascara ~ This is similar to The Falsies Mascar, but with a slightly more slender brush & the formula is more packed with fibres. First Impression: Could clump & smudge easily, but if you can handle that like a meticulous woman, false lash kind of volume & length!
Price: Rs.399

Color Sensational 3D Eyeshadow Palette in Rose Quartz Pink ~ A little palette of 5 eyeshadows, in which there is a top coat shimmer eyeshadow. Available in 4 shades. 
Price: Rs.575

Color Show Big Apple Reds Nail Paints ~ A collection of 4 red shades. I picked up R2 Big Apple Red. 
Price: Rs.145

Fit Me Concealer in #20 Sand ~ This is a repurchase. I'd got the first one in the same shade from UK, and they are both the same.
Price: Rs.500

Color Show 3D Eyeshadow Palette in Rose Quartz Pink



Colorbar All-Day Waterproof Eyeshadow Stick in Dream ~ Matte black. Would make a good smoky eye makeup base. 
Price: Rs.850

Chambor Orosa Sculpting Eye Shadow in Rose Smoke ~ A rose gold kind of shade.
Price: Rs.795

These two shadow sticks are so similar! Packaging looks the same & they both have sharpeners at the end. Same manufacturer, perhaps?


Chambor Extreme Wear Transferproof Liquid Lipstick in #403 ~  The color looks off in the pic, but it is a fuchsia pink, quite similar to MAC Flat Out Fabulous. Not sure how I feel about this yet, so let's see after a a few more wears. Also, I'm a bit confused, because I thought I swatched & picked a brighter pink shade!
Price: Rs.845


L'Oreal Color Riche Nail Polish in #408 Exquisite Scarlet ~  Since I adore another shade from this range, Boudoir Rose
Price: Rs.250.


And then the drawer organizers...


The big ones: Rs.230 each
  The medium ones: Rs.230 each
The small ones (on the far right):  Pack of 3 for Rs.280. These  can be joined.

All from Lifestyle Home Centre.


I've decided to keep my dressing table top empty from now on, and keep all the products I use regularly in these organizers, which will be kept inside the top drawer. Ziizayne now grabs things, yes, but mainly because I tend to over-clutter. Oh, you should see the state it's in right now ;p

Let's see if I can be done with that and maybe sneak in a photo for you all to see during the weekend.

Let's see! =D

But before that, I will show you something cool I discovered! 

Wait.....

  2. Haha, you sound exactly like me! I love snooping around makeup stands oohing and aahing over new products. I'm forever swatching and trying out new items, though I'll probably only walk away with maybe 1-2 products. but yes, I'm quite familiar with the crazy eye look you get when you spot something new!

  3. I tried the chambor lipsticks at the counter & I really loved the formula! I think I will skip on the mascara, what a disappointment.

  4. All makeup enthusiasts behave in a similar fashion. I think the SA at the counters are quite used to us.

  11. Oh my! I also need an organizer like this one. Its easier to find what I need in my drawer with those. Are there any other colors? If none, I'm okay with white.

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! :)
