I caved in and shopped summore today :(

GAHHHHH I hate myself for this.

1. Garnier 'Aqua Defense' Refreshing Toner. green bottle $7.90
I have combi skin; dry cheeks but slightly oily T-zone. Realised my skin is getting drier of late, ever since I implemented my Guardian Makeup Remover Wipes. I used to be one of those who heck cares about Makeup Removers (oil or gel or cream or whatever it comes in now) and just wash my makeup off with my normal cleanser. Now that I'm taking a step forward to ensure my face is cleaner, I also need a toner to dab on before sleeping so as to keep my skin hydrated. And this smells of apples!Yummy! Lol. Think my skincare regime is complete now :)

2. Montagne Jeunesse Face Tonic - Dead Sea Anti-Stress $1.95
HELLO! MEOW!! $1.95 only!! Pronounced Mon-Tan Jur-ness. And I've read up about these on youtube, reviews and stuff. The mask uses natural ingredients to pump minerals into your skin, and at the same time "promotes a deep sensation of calm as mineral rich ingredients nourish body and soul."

Lol that's what it says on the back of the pack.
Can't wait to try it and if it's good, I wouldn't mind picking up a few more of these coz it's so cheap! These comes in mud packs as well, and I've heard raves on it's chocolate mud pack. Apparently smells and looks like decadence so chocoholics beware lol.

3. Biore Black Pore Pack $4.95
Gotta get rid of the blackheads! Been some time since I went to war on my sesame field so i just grabbed a pack for old times' sake. Lol.

4. T3 Pimple Gel $4.80
Running out of my OXY Cover, thought I'll give this a try and see if it works as well, if not even better? Could save a few bucks with this coz it is cheaper than OXY by $3 i think.

5. Hazeline Snow Moisturizer $3.45
Remember my alcohol-loaded Clean and Clear moisturizer? Got this to replace that. Ohmygod, this goes wayy back. Hazeline Snow is one of those products that has passed the test of time, coz i clearly remember smelling this on my late grandmother. Of course, you can't go wrong with this fuss-free moisturizer. Even the packaging is simple - just a clear glass jar with a strip of sticker showcasing the brand with a yellow screw-on top. No design, minimal colours. Plus point - NO ALCOHOL!

6. Silky Girl Powder Blush in Dune Rose $9.90 $7.90 after X'Mas discount
I was getting tired of my current too-reddish fake MAC blush (says its Fashion Frenzy on the back) and wasn't patient enough for my NYX Spice to come so i grabbed this to console myself and put a stop to apple cheeks. I used to have this in Nectar Rose a long time ago, hit the pan and threw it away, so i thought to give Dune Rose a try this time round. Colour is more towards brown and peach undertones, and some makeup gurus claim it to be a surprising dupe for the pricey and oh-so holy NARS Orgasm.

7. Maybelline Unstoppable Eyeliner in Black Onyx
$9.90 $5.90 after X'Mas discount plus Watson's Member voucher!
Grabbed this on impulse coz I was tired of my ever so smudgey cheap pencil eyeliner from Aries. 'Elegance' brand i think? My current eyeliner glides on really well but smudges like crazyyy and gives me panda eyes in about 2 hours. So i bought this to try out, hopefully it will serve me well. And i got this at half the original price, so hell yeah.

I think you've probably figured out that I got everything from Watson's.
GAHHHHHH.

My NYX order better come quick or I'll end up buying more stuff to soothe my itchy hands!

edited 22nd Nov: I got a Neutrogena lip moisturizer today at half it's original price $3.95. Boohoo i can't stop.
