HAUL : ESTEE LAUDER STAFF SALE 2015

Hello to all my beautiful and wonderful readers! Happy Sunday to all. First off, I would like to thank all of you who reads my blog and enjoys it. It makes me feel very happy and motivated to write more. If there's anything that you'd like for me to review, let me know and I'll try to do it for you if it's within my means.

DISCLAIMER : Everything I've reviewed or write about so far, has been bought with my own money and has no way been given to me by any company/brands. All reviews are my own 'two-cents' about the products and is not influenced by anyone/anything in any way.

Today I will be sharing with you the items I got from the Estee Lauder Staff Sale 2015 yesterday. As mentioned in my post yesterday, I only bought 4 items, one of which I found out that I already have in my collection.

The first thing I bought is the Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick in Copper Diamond (RM 83) which I believe was part of the 2014 holiday collection.

Despite being name 'Copper Diamond', it doesn't swatch at all like a copper shade but I love how Gold the colour looks when swatched. It's an amazing gold shade.



The next thing I bought is also a Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick in Sandstone (RM 83). This was the item that I have an extra in my collection but without the limited edition packaging.

The colour when swatched is not as golden as the 'Copper Diamond' one but I still love it.



So those are what I bought from Bobbi Brown. Now, onto M.A.C. I only bought one item from M.A.C. which I was soooo happy to find at the sale. I actually wanted to purchase this when the collection was released a couple months back but decided not to and when I saw this at the sale, I had to get it! 

It is the M.A.C. x Bao Bao Wan Beauty Powder in Summer Opal (RM 65).
The colour is a gorgeous golden peach with a very light bronze tone to it. It is nothing too orange or red. It just gives the skin a gorgeous natural glow (I'm wearing just that on my cheeks, and contoured with NYX's HD Blush in Taupe)


Finally, the last item I got, is the Estee Lauder Double Wear Light Stay-in-Place Makeup SPF 10. I was contemplating on whether I should get this or the Estee Lauder Double Wear All Day Glow BB. I ended up getting the Estee Lauder Double Wear Light Stay-in-Place Makeup SPF 10 in Intensity 0.5 (RM 60) which was a steal!

I'm wearing it in the above picture as well. I took that picture after 5 hours of wear. It still looks amazing. I'm totally impressed by the coverage despite being a 'light version' and to me, it's a satin finish.



 So that's all for my haul from the Estee Lauder Staff Sale 2015. I enjoyed myself despite all the stress experienced during the sale. I hope I'll be able to go for the one next year.

ESTEE LAUDER STAFF SALE 2015 : LIVE UPDATE

Morning lovelies! It's 5.15am in the morning and I'm currently within the first line. I was a little late today as I underestimated. The previous year I was the first few in line. I guess this will have to do.

See the queue below :

-5.15am-

-6.15am-

-6.50am-

This year, I didn't felt like I had to queue really long, maybe because I came little later than I usually do. At 8 am sharp, we were all pumped up and excited! All of us were just ready to charge into the sales area.

The product selection this year was ok and I managed to grab 3 face highlighters (one of which I just realised I have already in my collection) and an Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation Light.

Some of the items that were on sale were M.A.C eyeshadows, paint pots, gel liners, lipsticks were limited (mostly lipglosses). The M.A.C. x Prabal Gurung collection were also on sale. For Bobbi Brown there were make up palettes but nothing appealed to me much except for the 2014 Holiday collection shimmer brick. And there were many more.

All in all, I managed to spend under budget and I was really proud of myself for not going crazy by buying everything.

So yea, stay tuned for my next post which will be my haul and swatches.
