Payday Shopping & Free Samples from Everyday Minerals

Payday is the best time to reward myself for the long week of paperworks and some side biz... But it doesn't mean that i have to spend much. Discovering some cheap finds or at least to window-shop are some of the relaxing things on my list.

I've ran out of facial cleanser, so Watsons was my first stop. I was thinking of getting another tube of my current facial wash (Nivea Visage) but when i saw Neutrogena on sale, i thought of trying this product. Nivea is a holy grail but i can't content myself without trying other brands from time to time. It's one of the girls' sickness, i guess.

Neutrogena Body Oil and Deep Clean Facial Cleanser

The scent of Neutrogena Body Oil's light sesame formula reminds me of the good old days. It was my favorite moisturizer until i discovered TBS Body Butter. =)

My next stop was a local shop here in Olongapo selling cute and cheap cosmetics. I was "inspired" by Aika Gay's blog posts about her China-made e/s and some other cheap finds in Divisioria. I was looking for Baxi brand particularly for eyeshadows, but they only come in single pan not palettes and i didn't like the colors left available.

I just bought some nail polishes and a Miss Beauty 12-Color Palette.

Total Damage for E/S and Nail Polishes: Php170.00 (approx. $3.40) (just do the Math) ;)

I'm lucky that i was able to place another order for samples before Everyday Minerals banned shipping to the Philippines. But I heard that there will be an Asian Site coming soon. I hope that the upcoming store would not have limited products than the (original) US Store, i would still want to save by ordering Super Full Kits and i'm expecting that the postage would then be cheaper.

Same thoughts?
