100 Day Spending Ban | Week 9 Update

$
0
0

Another week has gone, did I break any rules?  What have I learnt?

1.  A Recap

My rules:
  • No spending on ANY make up or skin care.  No exceptions.  I do welcome free gifts or samples though.  Note: during this span I shall have at least 3 Glamaboxes (one more Glamabox only) coming in, so that can keep me entertained!
  • Every single day I survive this ban, I will put HK $100 into my Fun Fund.  When the ban is over, I can treat myself well (perhaps some Burberry or Guerlain Tom Ford make up??).  :D
  • My 100 Day Spending Ban starts on 1st of April and shall end on 9th of July.

2.  Fun Fund (Week 9: 27 May - 2 June)

$4,800 + $700 - $200
= $5,300

i) FeelUnique,

£9 off £55 spent made me spent.  Ordered two blushes, a skin care kit, and a toner.  Not too bad, as all of them are on my wish list for quite a while and this was quite an amazing discount.

ii) Embryolisse and La Roche Posay,

I had read and watched too much of the Serozinc and Lait-Creme Concentre.  Found a place that sells authentic fresh stock at a very reasonable price so I picked up both of them... No regret.

3. Lesson Learnt

None.  Getting out of control day by day, plus I never learnt from my mistakes/weakness! >.<

4. Wants or Wishes

I will write these down weekly, and after the 100 day spending ban I will look back and see what I really will buy.  I suppose this is a good way to see how unnecessary some of my desires are...!  I am limiting myself to add one wish per day only, is that considered self-control, too?

Affordable:
Shiseido Perfect Oil
Dr. Douxi Mandelic Acid Essence 10%
Dr. Hsieh Mandelic Acid Home Peeling 10% (Taiwan shopping list!)

Luxury:
Edward Bess Black Sea Mousse Foundation (I don't probably need another foundation added to my wish list, but the beauty look book blog always intrigues me...)
Stila Convertible Palette - Cool, Warm (Wanted it ever since Vivianna talks about the Cool one in her video)
La Mer The Eye Concentrate

5. Other updates:

1.  Shop my stash!  Blog Sale!

2.  Recap of last week's posts:

  • My iHerb/Real Techniques haul - new duo-fibre brushes!  
  • Who doesn't love seeing make up look with red lips?  Not Me!  
  • Have you ever get more excited with the gift with purchase than with the actual products you paid for?  Yes me, in this Nip+Fab and Macadamia Natural Oil loot.
  • Final update of my May Journal.  
  • (Links will be updated later as I am blogging on my iPad blogger app)

I will be relaxing my ban a little when I'm away on vacation at Taiwan.  As long as I do not buy make up I count myself succeed.

Have you tried LRP Serozinc or Embryolisse LCC?

Beautiful wishes,
Lazy silly Jacq :")
