M.A.C, Sephora and Zara GETs



I did some shopping that I definitely shouldn't have  but if you think on the gal side of logic, then I definitely should!

Last Friday I went to the mall with Larie and Sulli (her 2yo baby girl) after my shift 


Oh to be the kid of a gal mama and trying on furry animal print coats in the middle of a Zara store 

I didn't do a huge haul because I'm short on money now (specially after the last unplanned haul lol) but I got some really nice stuff! 


 M.A.C 

Watching her Instagram stories and talking to Darla, I found out that M.A.C brought "Fleshpot" back for their 40th anniversary!  I remember seeing this lipstick in some magazines and then going to their website, only to find it was discontinued long ago  So I decided to do something a lil bit crazy and grab it 





I'm gonna be very honest, this is THE shade for gal makeup.  The special package is super cute too! 

I have "Myth" as well, but I liked "Fleshpot" a lot better! It's more neutral than "Myth" and I thought it suits me better.

The only downside is that, just as any Satin lipstick, it creases a little.


I tried on "Bubbles" too, it's a translucent, pearly white Frost lipstick. It's beautiful but a bit too ganguro for a shiro gal like me ww


 Sephora 

It was my first time shopping at one of their physical stores 

I wasn't really going to buy anything but they had the entire store with 10% off for Beauty Club members because of their anniversary, and well, I am one myself  So I got one of the Sephora Collection single eyeshadows. 

I've been wanting to try these eyeshadows for ages because they look so pretty and I was impressed with how sparkly and soft they are. It was hard to pick a shade, but I brought home "Fantasia"!  I'm going to wear it on my daily makeup now.




It's an insanely beautiful, rose gold shimmering eyeshadow with a bit of metallic to it.  I don't know how but it's also reflective. 

 One curious thing about it, it's that it got a removable pan. I believe this was developed with makeup artists in mind so they can build their own palette.

So worth it and now I want more eyeshadows!!! 


 Zara 

It was my first time getting anything from Zara... Ever. They're quite pricey here (to the point that some people believe it's a high end brand), and I'm not a fan of their minimalism (and questionable work ethics) 

But when Larie showed me these large satin scrunchies with ballet motif and 50% off... I just had to get it. 



That lil embroidery is soooo cuuuuuuute 

My hair is over 1 meter now so these huge ass scrunchies are useful


Now this wasn't a get from the mall, it was more of an emergency get wwwww

We left the mall by almost midnight and it was far from my house, but close to Larie's, so I stayed overnight at her place and went to work in the morning. The thing is, it was hot on Friday and I was wearing a crop top, but Saturday was somewhat colder and I wasn't aware that it would be. 

So when I got to the office I ordered a cheap faux sheepskin bolero coat I found in an app and they delivered at the office, just so I wouldn't die of hypothermia wwwwww


It's quite cute! 


For the next week I'm gonna write a post comparing "Myth" and "Fleshpot", plus some information on popular gal lipsticks! 

Now I'm gonna take a rest!
