My Althea Easter Haul!

For the first time ever, we skipped this year's Easter activities because my son - now in his 'tweens' - insisted that he's too old for bunny ears and painting eggs and stuff like that. So instead of hunting eggs on Easter Sunday, I found myself hunting for (more) K-beauty products at my favorite K-beauty shopping website, Althea. I had a few more Rewards Points in my account anyway, so might as well spend them all before they expire.

My Althea Easter haul (officially my fourth beauty haul from Althea) arrived over the weekend, and here's a glimpse of what I got:

I went hunting last Easter and this is what I got. :)

Petitfee Gold & Snail Hydrogel Eye Patch (Php 420).
Watching K-dramas has never been better ever since I got a Smart TV. And because we're on a school break, I now have more time to binge-watch currently airing and recently concluded K-dramas... and less time for sleep. Lol. Thank goodness for sheet masks and eye patches to help me not look like a sleep-deprived zombie.

Petitfee Gold & Snail Hydrogel Patch.

The Petitfee Gold & Snail Hydrogel Eye Patch is a daily pack for sensitive eyes and wrinkles, which contains gold powder to help with blood circulation for brighter eyes, and snail secretion filtrate to hydrate the skin and reduce puffiness under the eyes. It provides moisture, increases elasticity, and reduces wrinkles around the eye area.

Missha Layer Blurring Primer Pore Cover (Php 290).
Although I really don't have issues when it comes to enlarged, visible pores on my face, I ended up buying the Pore Cover variant of Missha's Layer Blurring Primer line because the other variant (Long Lasting) is taking forever to be restocked on the Althea website.

Missha Layer Blurring Primer Pore Cover.

The Missha Layer Blurring Primer Pore Cover is formulated to even out skin tone and smoothen rough pores, fine lines, and rugged areas on the face. It's infused with sebum-controlling ingredients to keep facial oils at bay and make the skin soft and seamless. It preps the face for makeup by refining the rough texture of the skin and 'blurring out' skin imperfections.

A'pieu Oil Remobong (Php 230).

Even though I've been using makeup and applying them on my face on an almost daily basis for years, I still make mistakes every now and then. When that happens, I usually rely on the Etude House Eraser Show Line Remover Stick to help fix my makeup blunder. 

A'pieu Oil Remobong.

The A'pieu Oil Remobong works the same way. These plush cotton swabs are filled with olive oil to easily and quickly remove any stray makeup while keeping the skin moisturized. They’re gentle on sensitive areas like the eyes and lips, and are easily disposable for convenient, hygienic use.

Innisfree Jelly Cheek in 02 Fresh Peach (Php 470).
Curious about the formulation and still very much obsessed with blushers, I got the Innisfree Jelly Cheek in shade 02 Fresh Peach. A relatively new product (I reckon these blushers were launched early this year), the Innisfree Jelly Cheek is a long-wearing blush with a soft, jelly-like texture. It comes with a mochi-like applicator which helps create that natural flush on your cheeks.

Tony Moly Pureness 100 Mask Sheet (Php 40).
My favorite Tony Moly Pureness 100 Mask Sheet is back in stock, yay! I bought the Hyaluronic variant back in February and loved the moisturizing effect on my skin, but nothing compares to the hydration and glowing effect that the Snail variant gives.

Haul | Korean Cosmetics + Forever21.

The little man goes back to school tomorrow, so expect me to be busier than the usual in the coming days. Mommies, you understand what I'm saying right? :) We all go back to the daily grind tomorrow, after all. But before chaos ensues around here, indulge me with this quick post and allow me to show you the stuff that I have bought the past week.

You might have heard that the husband and I just celebrated our tenth-slash-fifth anniversary. My better half treated me a to shopping spree at Kimchi Jib, which gave me the chance to stock up on some of my favorite Korean skincare products.

Clockwise from L-R:
Laneige Snow BB Cream, Laneige Water Sleeping Pack EX,
samples of various skincare products from Missha, Apieu, & Liole,
Skin79 Skinny Mirror Pact, Skin79 Kick It Side Thin Sponge.

This loot arrived on the eve of our anniversary, and it came just in time as the night moisturizer that I've been using was already running on empty. Ms. Maggie, the owner of Kimchi Jib, even included a bunch of product samples in the package. So yay, I'm a happy customer! I got me some new products to try! :)

I also did a bit of shopping at Forever 21 last Friday. I was in Makati to attend to claim my prize at the EON office, and I made the most out of that trip by getting me some new clothes for the new school year. As if I were the incoming student, haha!

Clockwise from L-R:
Grey Knit Top, Blue Dolman, Black Knee-length Leggings,
Black Regular Length Leggings, Basic Tee in Tomato,
Basic Tee in Sea Green.

And that's it! I told you this post is gonna be quick, haha!
I have to get some shut-eye now, as I need to wake up awfully early tomorrow. Flag ceremony is at 7 freaking 30 in the morning and I wouldn't want the little man to arrive late on his first day at the new school. Ah, good luck to me! Lol!
