Shopping hauls for May

Retail therapy works for me ALL the time but sometimes it takes a toll on my poor wallet. But it's alright, 'Buy Now, Guilty Later' is my philosophy of life.

So this month, I bought the following ; -

1. DRx toner - the toner I swear by because it removes the last traces of dirt and make-up. This is even more important for me now because I am currently suffering a break-out on the whole face. No idea why this is so even though I have not been lazy when it comes to cleansing and other steps of skin care. Major sigh, skin woes please leave me alone!

2. Kiehls' Rare Earth Pore Cleansing Mask - Since I am suffering from outbreak now, I think I would need to keep more pores really really clean. So after reading the reviews online and checking out the product in the store, I've decided to give this mask a try.

Some info: Intensively purifies to minimize pores. This thoroughly cleansing masque may be used for normal to oily skin types to help eliminate debris and dead surface skin-cell accumulation that can clog pores and leave skin dull-looking. With ingredients sourced from the Marajo Island at the mouth of the Amazon River, this unique formula is rich in minerals and helps eliminate surface toxins from skin. Deep-cleansing masque helps to purify skin, leaving the appearance of pores minimized and skin refined.

3. Lancome La Base Pro Face Primer - I've been using this face primer since I started using makeup and I really love this make up primer. However, I stopped using it for some time as I didn't see the counters selling this anymore and I thought they had discontinued it. Also, I have stopped using make up for some time in the hope that my skin would get better (sigh, it did not).

Some info: Benefits

• Refines skin’s texture and diffuses light to visibly reduce imperfections
• Glides smoothly and evenly over skin
• Promises better makeup wear - stay true, more vibrant color
• Leaves skin perfectly matte and satiny‑soft, never greasy
• Ideal for all skin types

Technology

• Elasto-Smooth™ technology forms a silk‑like network on skin to create a soft‑focus effect, like a filter on a camera lens
• Contains silicons and emollients that create an even canvas for foundation
• Oil‑free formula feels comfortable on skin and controls shine

4. Nail polishes - China glaze's Ruby pumps. My all time favourite red nail polish. / Seche vite Quick dry top coat / OPI - (can't remember the name) / Etude House Easy Peel-off base coat.

5. Yellow suitcase from Paper Market : Talked about it in earlier post!

6. Infinity Ring : One of the few rings that I own because I am not a ring-person. I prefer earrings and necklaces. I actually saw this ring last week and was contemplating if I should buy it. I decided against it in the end. But the days after, I kept thinking about the ring and hence I decided to buy it in the end, yesterday! I will also be making the boyfriend pay for it (only $4 la) to represent his infinity love for me. heh heh.

That's all for this month & I am actually feeling guilty about buying all these things already. :(
