Although collective, this wasn’t a big haul, even considering the fact that my last collective haul post was in October 2015! I might as well have participated in a low buy challenge huh?
Anyway, my picture settings have changed and I would like some feedback. I am loving it so far.
There are also products sent to me for reviewing purposes. So, as I usually do, here’s a breakdown.
Products sent for review
This is a range of products from the brand Paula’s Choice. Popular YouTubers like Tati and Wayne Goss have used and raved about it. I have already been using them and I love it so far (review coming up soon!). In the mean time, if you have heard good things about the brand and want to try it but don’t know where to purchase them here in Malaysia, you can order them from Facial Room Malaysia. Just visit their Facebook page and website for all the information.

I have previously mentioned Muffin Beauty; an online beauty review community in Malaysia. I am a member of their Beauty Club. They recently had a makeover and changed their name to BFF -Asia Beauty and Style (link here). To commemorate this upgrade they sent out a package to all their Beauty Club members with come skincare goodies. The one featured here is the Neesya Brightening Night Rejuvenator. There was also a face mask and some other samples.
Watsons Haul
3x Lipice lipbalms (I’ve already opened, used and reviewed one; link here), original price; MYR 10.50, purchased for; MYR 5 each.
3x Collection Cream Puffs in Angel Delight, original price; MYR 21.05, purchased for; MYR 10.50.
IN2IT Long Wearing Eyebrow Liner, original price; MYR 18.90, purchased for; MYR 17.00
Maybelline Crayon Liner in Brown; MYR 13.65.
Maybelline White Superfresh Liquid Powder; MYR 29.90 (this is far too light for me but I wanted a limited edition Maybelline brush set that came with the purchase – picture below – so basically I paid MYR 29.90 for a set of 3 brushes 😛 ).
AEON Big Haul
Both Essence products.
Make Me Brow; MYR 12.90.
Essence Mono Eyeshadow in 17, No Cream No Sugar; MYR 7.90.
Sasa
Revlon New Complexion One-Step Makeup, original price; MYR 58.30, purchased for; MYR 40.80.
Guardian Haul
Maybelline Clean Express Miracle Water, original price; MYR 19.90, purchased for; MYR 16.90.
Mydin Haul
Essence I ❤ Stage Eyeshadow Base; MYR 12.90 (MYR 15.80 at Watsons).
Indian shop Haul
I say Indian shop because I have forgotten exactly which shop I bought this from. However, if you are familiar with this brand, you would also know that these products are usually available in Indian shops (Cash N Carry). I bought it from Little India in Penang. Little India is commonly referred to certain places in Malaysia with a heavy concentration of Indian specialty shops.
Franch Moisturizing Cream (200 ml); MYR 9.90.
Also, I would like to share an amazing giveaway by a fellow blogger, Stashy. Stashy actually inspired me to do my 2015 Collective Product Empties post! Hi Stashy!!! Do head over and join her giveaway! Giveaway post link here. Was supposed to pingback this on my last post but I forgot *facepalm*.
Nice!
You must tell me how you like Make Me Brow by Essence. It seems comparable to Benefit’s Gimme Brow (which I own and it’s nice).

Thank you Rossy! 🙂 ❤
I haven't really used the Benefit Gimme Brow. Only swatched it but just from initial impressions, I think the Gimme Brow is much more pigmented than the Essence one. The Essence one doesn't really fill up the brow as well as the Benefit one as I have seen from YouTube videos. I will definitely do a comparison if and when I get the Benefit one…

Hey Alisha! Thanks for dropping by, reading and commenting!
Owh, those Cream Puff are sold out everywhere and if you didn’t know it’s a dupe for the NYX SMLC in London which I already love! The NYX SMLC is also always notoriously out of stock in Sephoras in Malaysia. I am also very apprehensive of buying stuff like that off the Internet. Wow, what a long explanation for buying something! Lol! In my defense, they were also just MYR 10.50!
I know Fatima! I love her blog! She has been looking for those? There’s actually a subtitle of the place I purchased for everything I buy (Watsons Haul, Guardian Haul, etc) … I bought it from AEON Big actually…

AMAZING haul! 😀 So many items that I’ve never seen before.
I have used that Essence I ❤ Stage Eyeshadow Base – it's really great not only as an eye shadow base but great for under eye correcting!
And thanks for the link back to the giveaway. Better luck for the next one! 😉

Thanks Stashy!!
Oh yes, that Essence base is very much like a concealer, pretty blendable, doesn’t crease, and I’ve used on my friend to highlight too!
Oh it is just so fun sharing others’ giveaways! Looking forward to your next international giveaway!

I don’t think I’ll be reviewing it Diana because the shade is not a match at all! I bought it just for the brushes! 😛 😛 😛 But what I can tell you is that it doesn’t really become powdery once set. I was kind of surprised. It seems to set pretty well on the skin. You should swatch it on your hand with samples and you’ll know what I mean… 😀 I am sorry! 😦
