Malaysia Haul: Tony Moly, Nature Republic, Etude House, Watsons

Hey guys! First up, I am sooo sooo sooo sorry for not posting in such a long time. I was really busy with exams, projects and problems in life that I just didn’t have time to prepare pictures and all. I am back now for a short while before some more exams and then a long holiday which I will make sure to stay extremely active on this blog. 

I went to Malaysia with a few friends to the nearby City Square Mall for a short shopping spree and just to relax from all the exams. It is a little complicated going through customs so do go with a friend who is experienced in such. Maybe I can do a customs walkthrough ‘how-to’ kinda post just to benefit readers who are going through customs the first time.  

Okay to be honest I went kind of crazy with purchasing makeup products, the prices in Malaysia are fairly cheaper compared to purchasing them in Singapore. As usual I will do a separate review on the individual items after I have tried them out (reviews are out! Links at end of post). I will list all of the product names and prices below. 


 Bags of goooodies! I didn't get Etude House's bag because the sales girl was soooo slow and i was like, forget it, i don't need any bag anyways.

I finally got my hands on Rimmel Pink Blush lipstick, it is not available in Singapore though! I wished there was Airy Fairy but there wasn't. My desk is super messy at the moment so sorry for the really compressed shot!






 The Biore Remover Wipes couldn't fit into the frame, so it has an individual shot.


I am not sure how cheap they are compared to Singapore prices because I haven’t really seen some of the items before in Singapore. So if you do know any product prices in sg, feel free to leave it in the comments below. 

SGD to RM exchange rate: 2.43 (Malaysia money changer rate)
SGD to RM exchange rate: 2.47 (Exact currency exchange rate)
RM = Malaysian Currency


Tip: change your money in Singapore for a higher rate as compared to changing it in Malaysia. Money changers will charge a lower exchange rate for their own money (to rip tourist’s cash) as you have to change for local money if you are in that country, if it makes any sense. I changed my money in Malaysia as it was too early and money changers in Singapore open really late.

Nature Republic:
Stain Girl’s Tint Red: RM$15.22 (SGD$6.26)
Stain Girl’s Tint Pink: RM$15.22
Nail Design Stickers (buy 2 get 1 free promo): RM$5.90 each (SGD$2.42 each)

Tony Moly:
Tony Tint Cherry Pink: RM$29.90 (SGD$12.34)
Kiss Lover Lip Stick PK01: RM$39.90 (SGD$16.46)

Etude House:
Blue Matte nail polish: RM$9.90 (SGD$4.07)
Pink nail polish: RM$4.75 (SGD$1.95)
Super Sun SPF 35 (10% discount): RM$29.90 (before discount) (SGD$12.30)
                                                                  : RM$26.95 (after discount) (SGD$11.09)

Watsons:
Rimmel Lipstick in 006 Pink Blush: RM$17.90 (SGD$7.36)
Biore Makeup Remover Wipes: RM$28 (SGD$11.50) *SG Watsons price: SGD$16.50


I lost some of the receipts so some prices are approximations. Have a great day! :D Feel free to leave comments; I will try to answer all of them!

Review for Rimmel Vinyl Gloss

On the recent trip to Watsons, I picked up a few Rimmel lip glosses that were on 20% discount. The three Vinyl Glosses I picked were in shades 111 Demure, 112 Steal My Kisses and 113 Mischief. The lip glosses are applicator form for easy navigation of product onto lips.

Swatches under daylighting (below) Left to Right: Demure, Steal My Kisses, Mischief



Demure is a candy milky baby pink shade in the bottle but comes out extremely sheer. The colour is very girly and will look very pretty topped over a baby pink lipstick.

Steal My Kisses is a pink with slight orange undertone that is darker and more pigmented than Demure.

Mischief looks purple in the bottle but comes out pink with purple undertones. It is more pigmented than Demure. It is very wearable despite the shocking purple colour in bottle. If you are looking for a lilac colour that is not too loud, this might be the one for you.



Pros:

These three colours are beautiful and extremely wearable. They do not dry out lips which is a pretty wonderful as I have sensitive and dry lips and pretty much all lipsticks and glosses I’ve tried dried out my lips, making my fingers itch as I restrain from peeling them. The glosses are extremely affordable; S$12.90 each. Definitely buildable for Steal My Kisses and Mischief, not that much for Demure as it is very sheer. The lasting power is around 3 hours if drinking only water. Reapplication is required after meals.



Cons:

These glosses are not very pigmented so I will not recommend it if you have dark/ pigmented lips as the colours will probably not show up. But for the price I still do think that these glosses are reasonable and the colour payoff from the Steal My Kisses and Mischief are quite good.



Yadda Yadda:

Retails for S$12.90 at Watsons for 5ml or 0.17 fl oz. I bought it at a 20% discount and paid only S$10.00 for each gloss. Will I repurchase? YES! I already bought backups of Steal My Kisses and Mischief. My current HG lipglosses! Hurry, go snag a few now and share your thoughts! Ratings: 4.5/5 Stars.



Love,
