Haul: Beauty Finds in Malaysia and Singapore

I didn’t get to take a lot of pictures when I was in KL. I was too busy shopping and bonding with one of my BFFs. I was there for two days, really, and we had some serious shopping business to do.

I bought a number of things, including pasalubong for my bros and parents. I was really lucky that stuff were on sale during my visit so I bought a couple of shirts from Giordano (bros), Uniqlo tees for my mom and myself and I hoarded coffee for my dad.

Other than the tees I bought, I think we raided every single beauty shop we can find: Sephora, Inglot, MAC, Bobbi Brown, Sasa, etc. I also killed time at the beauty section of Changi Airport on my way back.

Goodies!

Getaway

Because I deserve it:

I booked a flight to KL via Singapore Airlines! It’s in August, so it’s something like a birthday present to myself. And if you’ve seen me lately, you’ll be able to tell that I need a vacation. It’s a ridiculously short trip; I’m leaving on a Saturday and will be back on a Tuesday. Doesn’t matter. For somebody neck-deep in everyday stress, packing my bags, getting on my plane and feeling it leaving the Metro does wonders for one’s inner peace. Plus, I’ll be visiting my BFF – and I haven’t seen her since 2009 – so my accommodation and transpo is well taken care of.

This is basically going to be a shopping trip and you can bet your money that the first thing I’ll be visiting is the Inglot flagship store (which, I think, is the brand’s first store in SEA). I’ll be one hell of a useless beauty blogger if I don’t drop by Inglot or Sephora or duty free!

So why am I posting this?

Eh, I thought I’d give you guys fair warning that I’ll be posting a fair share of travel-related stuff like:

• Part 1: What’s in my carry on bag
• Part 2: What’s in my suitcase
• OOTDs: MLA to KL, Night 1, Day 1, Night 2, Day 2, KL-MLA
• Beauty Finds: Singapore and KL
• Food shots!
• etc

That ought to fuel this blog for a while
