The Mini Haul : BeautyMnl Edition

by - October 30, 2017

Upon checking the definition of the word Haul, one of the notable definition of a haul is: "A quantity of something that was stolen or is possessed illegally." Just to make it clear, I paid for every single thing in this post hahaha!

Sooo, last Friday, October 27, 2017 while checking out my facebook profile, I've noticed at the upper right corner is an ad from BeautyMNL that says you get to pay Php 1 only for shipping. My frugal heart started beating, that I decided to check it out.

Mecca
You see, on a regular basis if you spend less than Php 1,500 on products from BeautyMNL, you get to pay Php50 for shipping fee. However if you decided to full-blown treat yo' self on beautiful things, and surpassed Php 1,500, you don't have to pay for shipping anymore.

Anyway, for those who aren't familiar with BeautyMNL, it is an online store/community that sells and features make-up, skincare products, hair care products, and all things that will make you beautiful (they even sell accessories, and little acrylic things to put your make-up in). The first time I discovered this amazing site was last year, and ever since then the brands that they carry keeps on expanding. From mainstream brands like Maybelline and E.L.F., to lesser-known (but equally amazing ones) like Petra by Pixi. They also carry amazing high-end brands like Chanel, and even those that you most likely only be able to acquire if you're in another country, like Kylie lipkits, and Colourpop; but not anymore, because BeautyMNL saves the day!

Sooooo, since I'm not that heavy on make-up (Lip and Cheek Tint + Eyebrow Powder girl here) I don't intend to buy a lot, at most I just want to try out local cult-faves that are worth every penny. Sooooo, shall we begin?

As I've mentioned, I saw the Php 1 ad last October 27, 2017 and at that moment, I found myself ordering 4 items. All of the items I bought are locally made, so I'm pretty excited with each product I bought.


Time check: 12:46 PM 30th of October 2017. Yep, my order arrived! BeautyMNL never fails when it comes to delivery time! Even with my 2 previous orders, it never exceeded more than 3 working days before I get my hands on my goodies. However, I think if you order today you won't be able to get your order by tomorrow or on Wednesday, since it's a holiday :(

THE GOODIES

Here are the items I've purchased:

1. Skin Potion's Flaunt Thy Lashes Eyelash and Eyebrow Hair Grower - Php 199.00

Smol tube is smol
I don't know, but I was kinda expecting a bigger tube hahaha! Supposedly, my main goal is to buy a brand new mascara, and I've noticed this one particular mascara by Lioele which retails for Php 199. Aside from its reasonable price, there are a lot of promising reviews about it. Just when I was about to click "Add to Cart", I then realized that it's already sold out :( So, upon further checking of different eyelash products, I stumbled upon this.

Since hair growth doesn't happen over night, and I have yet to try this out, will make another post about this product ;)

2. Skin Genie's Lip and Cheek Stain Alive in Merlot - Php 80.00 (YUP, I'M NOT JOKING)



Now, this one is a cult favorite amongst BeautyMNL buyers and reviewers, having a whopping 1,586 review (and counting), it did not take me so long to be persuaded to buy it. Aside from its affordable price, and good reviews, this lip and cheek stain have 13 different swatches to choose from!

I already tried this, but will definitely make a separate post for this beauty <3 p="">

3. Bath Junkies' Pink Party Love Potion cologne - Php 50.00 (Not joking)

smol bottle is kyot

The size of this pretty cologne is as big as your handy mouthwash spray, but oh boy, the scent is so powerful. This is the first product I tried upon opening the package. At first spritz, I was surprised with how overwhelmingly fruity it is! It smells as if you drowned yourself in a pool of grapefruit juice! No kidding! But after an hour or two, the strong smell subsides, now it smells fruity but delicate. A good buy indeed!

And the last, but not the least...

4. Pink Sugar, It's Awesome BB Cream in Light - Php 499 but currently at Php 199 (Yup, SRSLY)


Now, this one is a tricky purchase. I've always find it problematic thing to purchase foundations, BB creams, or anything that needs to properly match your face's skin tone (yup, your hand and your face don't share the same skin tone), since you really can't swatch it on your neck, or your monitor may not be able to fully show the right color of the product. Anyhoo, I still proceeded in purchasing this BB cream, since it was on sale! I purchased the Light color, then immediately regretted it since it may not be the right color for me. However, I kept in mind that if this doesn't suit me well, I can give this to my older sister, who's skin is as fair as a paper.

Like the Lip and Cheek Stain, this product has 87 reviews, so I did not think twice and bought it. Haven't tried it yet, but once I do, will make a separate post about it :)

And that's it! My mini haul (sans the stealing) in BeautyMNL made my heart aflutter, and my wallet cry a little. 

Love Always,

Nicoco
