Winning Sample Room x Soffia Worth Over 5K Makeup Brush Giveaway

I used to love joining giveaways on Instagram until a few years ago when I get swamped with work (well, mostly) while struggling with personal things. I kind of feel like joining again when I saw that Sample Room teamed up with Soffia into giving away makeup brushes. If you've read some of my past blogs, brush-related, you'll realize that you've met a makeup brush junkie.

Nowadays, you will rarely see me buying them considering the price (you know they aren't exactly cheap!), and the fact that it's unnecessary since I am working from home and seldom goes out. I am actually trying to get rid of some - the ones I think are pretty similar to my holy grails, and some that I just do not like for a reason. It's either because of quality or just simply because they don't appear pleasing to me (LOL!).

So yeah, I joined the Instagram giveaway where the mechanics are just simple. I have included my entry down below. You just have to post a photo/flatlay/video and then share it on your social media. You also need to share your experience with the brushes you got from them and make sure you follow both pages too. They selected four winners and I was lucky to be one of them. I have always known Soffia and Charm Essentials brushes but just couldn't get myself to buy them. Now, finally!

I just want to share what I've got here in my loot. First on the list is this medium-sized PVC pouch, lined with blush pink synthetic leather and Sample Room PH print. This pouch is so chic, I love it! It would fit your basic necessities. It also comes with this pink mini notebook. I like writing random stuff so, yup, cool!

My loot included four pieces of Soffia opulence brushes. Soffia Perfect Skin Foundation Makeup Brush (P700) is the same foundation brush which I already have and was initially purchased from Sample Room. Well, you can't have enough base brush! It's tiny but works really well in blending your foundation.

I've got a couple of big brushes here which I like. Soffia Opulence Soft Focus Makeup Brush (P2850) is just so fluffy and I imagine myself using it for bronzer or powder application. Next one is the Soffia Opulence All Over Face Makeup Brush (P2500) which is a denser brush that can also multitask as a finishing brush. Unlike the soft focus brush which is round and tapered, the all over brush is somehow pinched on the handle and reminds me of the powder brush I once owned from Sigma. Both are about on the same price range.

The last one is the Soffia Opulence Small Contour Brush (P1500) which works for blushes and contours. This is nice if you want to achieve a well-defined contour.

All the brushes I got are really nice investments if you are to ask me. They feel well-made and really gentle on the skin. They are currently on sale at Shopee (Sophie's Choice PH) so head there now, if you'd like to take advantage of this limited-time sale.

I am truly grateful to Sample Room PH and Soffia for this opportunity and for being generous with these prizes. Forever a Sample Roomie here! Thanks for dropping by and see you on my next blog!

Mini Haul: Free Soffia and Charm Essentials Brushes

I've never been this excited to cast my vote, but the unofficial result is really making me puke. This is not the place to discuss the specifics, but I'm honestly disheartened and in need of a quick break. I'm still in shock and couldn't get it off my mind but whatever. Today, I want to share with you a mini haul with items I got for free from Sample Room.

I have always been a makeup brush junkie - believe me, I have way more than what my face needed right now (LOL!). Still, I get too excited whenever I discover something new. I dare not lie - these brushes here are must-haves!

Charm Essentials Kabuki (PHP 600) and Luxe Mini Kabuki (PHP 336) Brushes - these brushes have really soft bristles and has the enough density to multitask from applying your powder, blush or just simply setting everything in place. They are so handy and probably, the only thing that I wish they came with, were mini pouches to protect transferring pigments from bristles to other surfaces. Other than that, I have all the reasons to keep them in my collection. I mean the color of the top bristles is simply awesome, despite the fact that not everyone is fond of pink. But whatever, hello there, pink-lovers! ;)

Soffia Perfect Skin Angled Foundation Brush (PHP 700) - this is a small foundation brush with a matte black handle which makes it easy and comfortable to grip and also has gold accents for that added luxurious aesthetic. The brush's functionality and softness actually reminds me of my Shiseido Perfect Foundation Brush but is about half the price and is slightly bigger in surface area. It works to buff foundation seamlessly and the size is also a great option for travelling! I love this brush! Well, I love them all!

Charm Pro Wet/Dry Eyeshadow Brush (PHP 339) - applying your eyeshadow in different consistencies will be so much easy with this brush from this brand. Indeed a great hypoallergenic tool to use on our sensitive skin around the eyes, without the poking/irritating feeling. Could also be used wet and dry to play around with different looks.

Charm Pro Mini Fan Brush  (PHP 250) - this is your typical small-but-terrible brush. I find this brush versatile too as aside from de-clumping mascara, it can also be used to place highlight on your nose bridge or brow bone. It's not necessary to own this brush, but still useful in my opinion.

All these I got from Sample Room for free and only paid shipping. You may wanna head out to the site to see if there are still stocks available ('cause they run out fast!). I hope you enjoy using them as much as I do!

Mini Skincare Haul from RRAW PH (50% Off Payday Sale)

You gotta be alert when it's payday time, don't you? Last April 15, Rraw went on a one-day sale wherein I was able to buy all items above at half their original price. I know this purchase isn't exactly an impulse buy. It was a long time coming for me because I had these items in my cart for about a year or two (like literally!) and was just waiting for: (1) my skin to get used to my new skincare so I can incorporate new products; and (2) a sale! No kidding.

I was actually fine with at least 10% off but I was lucky to even get them at 50%. I've known the brand for as long as I can remember, but only had the courage to try now as I'm very cautious when it comes to organic skincare.

There were a few beauty brands where products are not even FDA-registered. I was able to use organic products before which totally worsen my skin condition. Which is why I honestly think that there is nothing wrong with being careful.

Some skincare that caught my attention from Rraw were the new 1% Retinol Cream Acid (₱459), Tea Butter Undereye Cream (₱360), Pink Salt Natural Underarm Whitening Scrub Cream (₱360) and their Lip & Cheek Stain in Atla (₱160). I haven't used these products long enough to write a detailed post but I promise I would. So far though, I've only had zero to few issues with these products. We're still in the getting-to-know stage, so there's a lot more to discover during the road-test.

I am not sure when these items will go on sale again, but tomorrow is payday, so you must know the drill. Anything on your cart ready to be checked out? Me? Don't ask. LOL. See you next time, loves!

Sample Room's 8th Birthday + October-December Haul 2020

Retail therapy has always improved my anxiety and stress level. I've been trying to keep my spending to a minimum and I guess it's somehow possible because...oh well, there's Sample Room. We get random stuff for free (you only need to pay for shipping) and we discover products we never know exist. Some of them even turn out to be holy grails. Small things like this make a substantial proof that life is, indeed, full of surprises.

Today, I consolidated some of the items I got from them for the past couple of months and decided to make a blog because I find the items super interesting. I even joined their birthday contest and I won a couple of home essential items--a citrus-scented candle and a linen spray. I've always wanted to own one of these and I finally got to try them. Thanks, Sample Room!

Since it's been a while since I shared a haul with you, let me talk a bit about some of the items I got. This is no way to brag or something. My purpose is to let you have an idea of what to expect when you buy from Sample Room.

Because of the pandemic, I've been extra careful of my surroundings. I get paranoid every time I see dirt on surfaces and the OC in me just couldn't sit back and relax. It's smart of Sample Room to have cleaning items available in their website. Here's an example: Max Kleen Anti-Bacteral Multi-Surface Wipes. It comes with 40 sturdy sheets of surface cleaners to wipe germs and bacteria in your kitchen sinks or tables or pretty much any surface deemed necessary of cleaning. Prior to carting this, I got the Max Kleen Disinfectant Surface Sanitizer and 3 bottles of Ambi Pur Fabric Spray Bottles from them too.

I also love trying out different skincare items from them. Since I am running out of a facial wash, I got myself this Pond's Anti Bacterial Facial Foam which I believe is kind of new in the market. I'd like to use a product that fully gets rid of all dirt and germs on my face that not just cause breakouts but possible viral infection too.

Currently, I am loving this facial wash! It cleanses my skin thoroughly and makes it look brighter and clearer. I am using it together with Pond's White Beauty Perfect Potion Essence and Serum Burst Cream which I both got from Sample Room in my previous purchases.

And yes, aside from random home essentials and skincare items, they also carry health and fitness items to keep your body and immune system healthy. I also got this C-Lium Fibre Food Supplement mainly to address my constipation problem. Plus, it's flavored so you get to take a delicious, yet healthy drink!

So yep, that's pretty much everything. I still had tons of items I got from them which I wasn't able to share with you, guys. If you want me to do more haul blogs, please let me know! And before we end this, I'd like to greet you all a Happy New Year! May 2021 be your year. Love lots!

Quarantine Shopping: Real Techniques Makeup Brush Haul

It’s been a while. I’m super entangled with this 2014 action romance series, Healer, so I couldn’t really find time to blog for the past few days. I’ve also been decluttering stuff and posting them online to make way for new purchases and to also make some money in order to survive in this crisis lol.

But of course, the impulsive me is still unstoppable. I’ve spent some time in Shopee browsing for new makeup brushes specifically from the brand Real Techniques. They have been releasing limited edition brush sets and revamping their packaging from time to time that I couldn’t keep up. Unfortunately, we are no  US citizens so no matter how hard I try to keep my hands on all the latest releases, availability and delivery period are never allowing me.

So whenever I see a brush set or an individual brush being sold at my convenience, I just couldn’t help it. Here I wanna share the brushes I was able to collect this quarantine period.

This set is called the Real Techniques Summer Nights Set which was released some time last year if I am not mistaken. It features five full-size brushes - all of which (except the RT 200 Expert Face Brush) you cannot buy individually. This is what’s great about buying sets. Not only you get to save on the possible individual cost, you also get brushes that are innovative. Of course, everything feels durable and the synthetic hairs are soft. I got this from the shop @andreanuguid for only P850 plus some cashback.

Here we have individual brushes - Real Techniques Complexion Blender and RT 201 Powder brushes. Maybe you are wondering why I have two of the powder brush? Well, you can never have too many, right? Lol. Kidding aside, I love big brushes but it doesn’t make sense to own two of the same kind. Honestly, I just realized it now so I am selling the other one right after I post this haha!

Anyway, for those who are wondering, I got the complexion blender (P480) and one powder brush (P522) from @radium88 and the other powder brush (P500) from @angelasam1.

Then I also got myself the Real Techniques Eye Shade + Blend Set (P500) and Mini Miracle Complexion Sponges (P450) from @myfaveshop. Their name speak so much about my feelings for them. This is one of my favorite shops as they have a lot of authentic makeup tools and customer service is really good. The seller is also accomodating of my petty requests.

I actually already have the eye set in the old packaging and I even have the deluxe crease brush in the new one (got it from another makeup brush set) so basically that leaves me with two base shadow brushes and three deluxe crease brushes in my stash. Remind me to get rid of the extras, again!

Here are few other brushes I got from different sets - Real Techniques Artist Essentials Set and Real Techniques Everyday Essentials. I apologize because I forgot to include the smaller brushes in the picture.

The first brush is called the Instapop Face Brush which has an angled side. I got it for P580 from @radium888. This is an okay brush but I don’t find myself reaching out for it often.

The RT Artist Essentials has five brushes (foundation, contour, highlighter, blush, liner, lipstick) in the collection and all of which you cannot buy separately. I got it for P1000 from the same shop. For me, this is one of the best makeup brush set out there. All of the brushes are versatile and the way they were shaped is very efficient too. 

From @sydeshoppe, I got the Everyday Essentials Set. And unlike the other collection, it comes with four full size brushes (blush, setting/highlighting, concealer,  and buff) and a miracle sponge. Every piece in this collection, you can buy individually so if that’s what you are planning, just get the entire set to save more. I got mine for P1050. That leaves me paying for only P210 a brush! Sweet!

So that’s it for today! I am still excited to find and try more brushes and I promise to write them a review in the future!

How about you? What have you been splurging on this quarantine season?

Luxie Beauty Protools Makeup Brush Collection

I've told you already and you probably still don't care but makeup brushes under the Luxie Protools Collections, for me, are so underrated. If you're fond of makeup brushes, and have owned a lot, you'll know what I mean. These are really gorgeous brushes you gotta have in your stash. They are well-done and of high quality and the synthetic bristles are like baby's butt-soft and dense. The sculpted matte black handle, golden letters and bronze ferrules look very aesthetically pleasing and professional.

If only I knew I'd love them, I would've gotten the entire range. Good thing, I only lack about 3-4 brushes. I'm planning to make a haul again in the future because I think it would be a great investment to own more than one set of these. We'll never know when Luxie would cease the production of these tools so please wait for me!!!

Wet N Wild Beauty Shop Review + Thanksgiving Haul

Hi, there! So as you know, I like shopping through US websites. Unfortunately, most of them doesn't ship to freight forwarding companies like shippingcart.com, myus.com and my-shoppingbox.com. If you're still reluctant or doesn't know the process of using freight forwarders for international orders, I've made separate blogs about them.You may check the links down below! Any way, I'm very pleased that Wet N' Wild ships to warehouse addresses so wherever you are in the world, you can shop straight from the manufacturer.

Read the articles: A Guide for First-Time Buyers of US-Based Online Shops With My Shopping Box and Shopping From U.S. With Shipping Cart

THE BRAND

One of the best things about Wet n' Wild is the fact that they frequently do sales but of course, sales are harder to miss during holidays and sale seasons. I highly recommend to subscribe on their mailing list to get first dibs on new launches and coupons/promotions.

The shop has lower threshold for free shipping. By purchasing $25 worth of items, you already get free shipping for U.S. orders. Shipping normally takes up to a week depending on the address. If you prefer rush shipping, you may do so with an additional charge of $15.99 for 2-day shipping and $25.99 for next-day shipping. I always prefer the more economical option so I took the free shipping.

They offer makeup freebies! Most of the time, the shop give out makeups in full-size. While on your cart, a pop-up box normally appears and you just have the option to add to cart the item you wish to come with your haul.

They offer multiple payment methods. You can pay with any major credit/debit cards, amazonpay and afterpay where you can pay in portions (for U.S. customers only) or the most convenient for me is the Paypal where I store my cards.

In terms of makeup variations, Wet n' Wild has everything to offer from base makeup to tools. You'll never run out of stuff to buy. I'm just hesitant to purchase makeup items because knowing the brand, their items are either a hit or a miss. I'd rather drop by at kiosks or boutiques to test their products' pigmentation, finish and longevity.

The website is pleasing to the eyes but sometimes non-mobile responsive. I don't have any issues browsing through desktop though I had a hard time shopping through my phone especially when I was carting items, I couldn't find the exit button to return to the shop. I probably did it during maintenance but either way, I hope I don't encounter the same issue next time.

WHAT TRANSPIRED

I placed my order last October 16, 2019 and I received an e-mail confirmation right away saying that they received my order. I keep my receipts and stuff for records but I decided not to post it here for security purposes. Wet N Wild shipped my order October 19, 2019 so that was three days after I placed my order. I'm pretty sure they received tons of orders that particular day so I was still glad they shipped my items pretty quick on a sale season. Normally on other shops, it may take to up to a week before my items leave the warehouse.

On October 25, 2019, I received an e-mail notification from my-shoppingbox.com that a parcel has reached my suite. All I have to do is pay and authorized the shipment and the courier will just have the order shipped to me. Since I opted for the sea cargo (slower but cheaper mode of shipping), I had to wait until December 07, 2018 before I get my items delivered to my doorstep. That's pretty fast because I'm expecting 2 months from the day of authorization to get it.

So there, I received my orders in the best condition. - no dents, marks, damages or anything. I checked my receipt and I got everything complete. My items has been handled and packed well so kudos!

Overall, it was a pleasure doing a transaction from the website. The overall business is fast and easy since we're only talking about the transaction that transpired from the day I ordered up to the day it was delivered on the warehouse. It was exactly 9 days - could be less because freight forwarders still process and check the items before posting on the website and notifying the customers.

My Lazada 11:11 Haul

Hey there, wassup? It's been days but I still couldn't get over to the 'rush' shopping I did when Lazada and Shopee went on sale last November 11, 2019. I am planning to do two haul posts segregating my purchases from the two of the most popular e-commerce sites in the Philippines. I don't know about you but I'm honestly proud of scoring these items at the best prices I can ever think of.

The SM Store Beauty Haul: 70% Off Sigma Beauty Makeup Brushes

Hi, everyone! I'm pretty sure that - because Christmas is almost just a month away - The SM Store has something different to offer everyone. By different, I meant so-good-to-miss sale events. Yes, red price tags everywhere! What caught my attention was the huge markdown on Sigma Beauty Brushes which originally retails for over P1000 a piece which you can now buy for nothing over P500!

I didn't haul a lot for two reasons: one is because I was waiting for 11:11 so I cut my budget to P3,000. I got a total of 7 brushes for less than my allotted budget...can you believe it? Secondly, I got so many brushes from the brand (because I love them) and I don't see the point of me owning 2-3 brushes of the same kind. So there, I did a great job of saving, don't you think? I'm making myself believe it despite me going broke for falling to sales and bargains. It's holiday anyway so I'll forgive myself.

Moving forward, here are the items I got at 70% off and some of the brushes you'll see on sale at the official shop of The SM Store in Lazada.

Sigma E68 Line Perfector (P329). Photo grabbed from http://emmapickles.blogspot.com/

Sigma F82 Round Kabuki (P419.90). Photo grabbed from https://fluoresblog.blogspot.com/

Sigma F35 Tapered Highlighter (P419). Photo grabbed from http://www.vikkyanna.com/

Sigma F42 Strobing Fan (P344.90). Photo grabbed from http://missstephanieusher.blogspot.com/

Sigma F23 Soft Angled Contour (P479.90). Photo grabbed from http://www.theglamgreengirl.co.za/

Sigma F41 Fan (P344.90). Photo grabbed from https://poshmark.com/

Sigma E35 Tapered Blending. Photo grabbed from https://www.olenabeley.com/

TOTAL: P2,869.30 (including P50 shipping fee)

If you're lucky, you may still catch some of these and more on sale prices! Go and visit The SM Store in Lazada now! Happy shopping!

June Sampleroom Haul: New Products To Try

Here's my recent haul from Sample Room! I got new items I haven't tried before so I'm so stoked to try these. I included Cream Silk Triple Keratin Rescue Ultimate Color Revive in my haul because I am planning to dye my hair next week (which I am not so sure yet). I also bought the new Olay Natural White Ageless Aura 2-in-1 Facial Cream to aid my fine lines and aging skin. Lastly, I got myself a wash-off facial mask sheet called the Crazy Skin Crazy! Lifting Mask + Eye Cream which is very new to me. I am yet to figure out if this is a local products or from a Korean brand. What do you think?

Can't wait for SR to refresh their items! What about you? Have you been to Sampleroom to try new products before committing to buy?
