Note: This post is picture-heavy.
I’ve finally gotten all the pictures of the stuff I brought back from Malaysia sorted out. Man, there were a lot of photos to sieve through. The husband had quite a shock looking at the amount of stuff I brought back. Thankfully, most of them were gifts, much to his relief.
Speaking of which, and digressing a wee bit, it’s our first wedding anniversary today 😀 Wow, it’s been a year already, how time flies, huh?
Okay, back to haul.

There were other miscellaneous items which I got too, such as contact lens solution, tissue packs, tampons, etc. Stuff which are much cheaper in Malaysia, that is.
Wait wait, I forgot to add this in.
Yep, it’s the MAC #217 (blending brush), which is going into my collection of makeup brushes. It’s definitely cheaper in Malaysia. Plus, I have to say, I was impressed with the service I received at the MAC store at Gurney Plaza, Penang. They’ve definitely stepped up. Hmm I wonder if they read my rant? 😛
Oh, and I bought two pieces of clothing from Paperdoll too, which I’ll blog about separately.
Last but certainly not least, many thanks for all the great gifts, girls. I love ’em!
Happy anniversary. Doing anything crazy to celebrate?
Babe let me know whenever you’re free and we catch up k?
xo, V
So many goodies!! I’d love to know how BB gel liner works for you.
Aawww all your gifts are beauty related!!! 🙂
Oohhh you got the MAC217!!! It’s LOVE LOVE LOVE! 🙂
Happy Anniversary Tine! How did you celebrate? 😀
Wow!! That’s really alot of stuff!! I’m sure your husband must be relieved to know that most of them are gifts! lol!!
Hmmm… i guess i’m the lucky one as i always received good services at all MAC stores i’ve been to! Hehehe!! But yeah, the people at MAC Gurney are pretty friendly and nice! 😀
Congrats on another addition to your brush family!! I wanted to get this brush initially, but it’s a little too big for my crease so i’m definitely looking forward to the 226 from the BBR collection!! 😀
Looking forward to your B.liv review!! I wanna try this for myself, but since its quite expensive so i thought i’d read some reviews first! hehehe! 😀
Wow, that’s some loot! 😉
Glad you had a great time oh and of course, the shopping 😉

Happy anniversary!
