Hello guys. Weekend is in full swing but I am stuck at home, nursing a bad flu. I wasn't able to post a lipstick review yesterday for my Lipstick Week because of this. I am still under the weather right now, so I can't do decent lip swatches. I hope to be better tomorrow though, as my condition has greatly improved from yesterday, when I was essentially bed-ridden, cold, and a bit cranky (It's that "time" of the month too). I will do another lipstick review next week to makeup for the delay, and maybe another swatch post.

For now, I'm sharing a small haul I acquired last weekend. There were a lot of Pre-Holiday sales right after "Pista Minatay" (All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day) and I grabbed a few beauty-related things . Here they are:

Rich, velvety textures glide on effortlessly with superior smoothness. The velvet-tip applicator included in Expert Wear Eyeshadow Quads blends without tugging or pulling. Ophthalmologist tested.
