What Mr. Postman Brought Me Vol. 2


 photo 9339562-postman-flies-on-the-wings-to-deliver-quick-email.jpg
I honestly don't know how to start this post. Been thinking for a few hours on how I translate my happiness into words but I guess there's really no perfect statement especially when your heart is full of joy,love,care and blessings! I'm just so overwhelmed right now. My goals and dreams are starting to come true..slowly but surely. This week, I received some good news plus some of the stuff that I've been planning for a long time now is actually on the way to become a reality!! :') Anyway, I'll stop this now before I get too dramatic. I'm here to share with you what Mr. Postman brought me this week,! :D And yes, this is def one of the things I consider a blessing! Because I feel like the love and passion that I put into this blog is being appreciated by both readers (love you guys!) and some brands/companies! :D But let me be clear that I didn't start to blog just to monetize and became millionaire!lol..But I don't close my doors either because accepting brands into my blog makes me discover products (good and bad) and be able to share it with you. That's the main purpose of this blog anyway- To try new products in search of my holy grail...and yours too! ;) So yeah..there! Oooh see? This rather became a long intro! haha!

Alright, so what did the postman brought me? Let's find out!

*Links are provided at the end of this post.


1. Kluge - Sophie Paris beauty products!

When I saw these (compact powder and the lippie) in Sophie Paris' catalog, I immediately ordered one!! The packaging is just sooo pretty in pink! This pretties comes from SP's line named Kluge. I don't know what that means but packaging are more of a girly-teensy theme. They don't have much products though but the packaging def makes you think of Etude House and Lioele but cheaper! ^____^ They even have this pink mirror in ice cream pop-shape with a cute cream comb in a Popsicle stick shape. sooo cute! >.< Will order it soon!tehee..I just hope they add more products to this line! :) Now the two soaps right there are just extras and didn't even plan to buy it but my friend insisted and said that it smells really good so yeah I ordered two variants. Haven't tried them yet.Will surely review them soon! 


So here are the items that I got: Kluge Compact Powder 5g (only has 1 shade:natural),Kluge Lipstick Moisture in Smooth Rosewood 3.8g (this lipstick has 7 shades,will try to get them all and have swatches), Sophie Soap Cabana (brighten) and Sophie Soap Rose (smoothen).

Poor lippie :(
I really hate myself for being clumsy! After a few image shots, I accidentally drop off the lipstick (not on the floor though,just in my bed) :| good thing the bullet is sturdy enough but it left few dents on it. I know it won't be as pretty anymore when I review this lipstick but I'll make sure I'll do justice on the photos.lol


2. Better late than sorry! :D - Sample Room Loot!

Remember when I mentioned on the Vol. 1 of "What Postman Brought Me" that I wasn't able to get Carbtrim and Oracare samples? Well I got them now! (actually I got them earlier this week. ;D) I was actually waiting for Shiseido samples so I didn't used up my points to anything but when SR finally posted the samples, I was sad that most of them are sachets. I mean don't get me wrong, I would loooove to try Shiseido products but getting sachets won't do the brand justice. I might end up with a negative or just neutral review on it because I feel like sachets are not enough to give it a verdict since those are skincare products and needs more time (which means more products) for you to finally give your thoughts about it. Now instead of getting sachets, I just decided to get the Shiseido Ibuki Eye Correcting cream because you know..let's be honest, small bottles/tubes are CUTE! ;D I was hoping I could get the cleanser because they had 2-5ml bottles but it's already out of stock. :( And then, I spent the rest of my points to Oracare and Carbtrim samples which are full sizes! And Since I love Carbtrim so much, I joined their contest hoping I would win because that would mean more CarbTrim products for me.. And did I win?...YES.yes I did. :) yipeee! But that's another "haul" isn't it? :D Will definitely show you guys what I got. :D :D You can check out my CarbTrim blog entry HERE.


3. Now #trending - Tokyo Love Soaps! *wink*

When I received this, all I could say was "WOW"! This is certainly the most expensive PR products in one brand that I've received so far. oh my! I feel so loved! tehee..I mean, I really didn't expect to receive this because I didn't believe my blog to be "that" famous (but now I do..I think?ahaha!over-confident much?).. This soap is no cheap at all! It costs 900-1000php (around 25$) each and I got six of them! :O

I've been hearing lots of raves about this soap on how it really whitens and softens skin and then it targets problem areas depending on each variant's formula. I've also read that it refines body hair. That's what makes me most excited to try it. I want to experience it firsthand. If it does live up to its claim, I think it wouldn't hurt to splurge a bit? After all, it's for the best of your skin. ;) KimpossiblyGorgeous blog is actually having a giveaway with these soap and I actually entered! You know how I love freebies! :D But I didn't actually thought that Tokyo Love Shop will be sending me these. So when I received it, I was soooo happy! ^____^ (of course I made my entry invalid on that giveaway.hehe)

This soap has 4 variants and it is more popular by it's whitening effect. This is a product from Japan which is the talk of the town and have been used by many Japanese celebrities. Sounds interesting right? ;) So when this soap or this particular brand reached Philippine shore, it also became the talk of the town. We know how Filipinas are hooked with whitening products right? Plus! we also know how effective and potent Japan products are! I, myself, is a true believer of Japan products. Believe me, their products work magic. And I'm so happy to be using one now! :D 

*Will surely share my review about it.
