(1) Foxy Fashions
Bubbles has amassed a sizeable collection of paperbags, so Foxy is fashionably decked out in Chanel - the ribbons look rather fetching, don't they?
(2) Etude House haul
Bubbles LOVES Etude House and the Play Colour Eyes eyeshadow palettes got her tail in a twist. Etude House rarely releases such large and varied eyeshadow palettes (the only other one being the Rose Flowering Eyes palette for autumn 2013) so this was a must-buy. Bubbles picked the So Chic palette ($39.90 but there was a 10% discount and it came with a free cleansing oil) because the shimmer shades were amazing, with tasteful pinks and blues and golds. The So Hot palette was passed over because it had a fire engine red, which Bubbles has NO IDEA how to use without looking like she's got a nasty eye infection.
Bubbles also picked up a Help My Finger cuticle moisturizer because it was going at half price ($4.90), a mascara (called Shockcara) - which promises to give amazing volume for $22.90 with a free mascara guard and lash comb, and her usual cotton wool (not pictured). As one can see, "half-price" and "free stuff" are this alpaca's kryptonite.
(3) Innisfree haul
Cuddles has a part to play in this too - in fact, Cuddles is LARGELY TO BLAME for this haul. Cuddles could not resist the cute innirang (Innisfree's horsey mascot) pouch... but she could take it home if she spent $50.
The alpacas thus bought 2 bija masks ($2 each), 2 green tea mineral mists ($8.90 each), 1 fruit scented hand cream (smells divine), 1 sugar berry hand cream, 1 fig hand cream, and 4 assorted mask packs. The free samples came fast and furious, and Cuddles turned down the offer of a "free Lee Min Ho poster with purchase" for more samples. The samples are all from the green tea seed range, with creams, serums and oils.
(4) My Beauty Diary masks 2013 limited edition
Finally, Bubbles got her mitts on the 2013 MBD limited edition mask set. It costs $15.90 and contains 12 masks (6 varieties), making it fantastically value-for-money. The packaging with the cat illustration was a nice surprise! Bubbles loves MBD masks because they are cheap and effective. The collagen one is especially good, and Bubbles will be sure to stock up whenever they are on offer. Right now, SASA is running a "buy 2 boxes for $26" promotion (a box of 10 normally retails for $16.90).
