My attempt at the 2009 100+ Reading Challenge starts here.
Fate has brought you to this sketchbook - a slice of life behind the eyes of a seventeen-year-old Filipina residing in sunny England.
Guess what my mum brought home last night :]
Finally. I really thought I was never going to get my hands on the stuff I ordered from Avon. The lady who got my stuff went on holiday so I was not able to get them until last night. I was going to use these pa naman for my prom. Lol. But, oh well, they’re here and I’m happy ^_^
I got the Kajal Stick in Black for £2.50; Kiss ‘N’ Go Lipstick in Vino Disco for only £3.25; and the SuperFull Midnight Mascara in Blackest Black for £5. Total expenditure: £10.75 - isn’t that awesoooome? :] I saved heaps with Avon.
Actually, the very first lipstick I had (back in the fifth grade. Lol) was from Avon and since then people have been giving me Avon cosmetics as presents.
I am really gutted that these didn’t arrive in time for prom, but that’s okay. I’ve decided I won’t open the mascara and the kajal stick just yet - I’m going to save them for later when the ones I’m currently using eventually run out. I’ve never had a kajal stick in my life. The eyeliner I’m using at the moment is a retractable one from Barry M which I love - it does stay on but it’s a little dry. I’m hoping the kajal stick would be easier to glide on. I’ve read a lot of good reviews online about the SuperFull Midnight Mascara so I’m pretty excited to try it out. It’s not waterproof so it should be perfect for my holiday back home :]
I’ve tried the lipstick already. It’s cute :] Vino Disco is kinda like a berry shade of red and I’m pretty much in love with it ^_^ I dunno, it looks romantic. And at only £3.25, how could I resist? ^_^ It doesn’t dry my lips out and looks very natural.
And the packaging’s cute, too, don’t you think? :]
