Hi!
Seeing how I am going to be up till the wee hours of the morning - out of guilt for skipping to town for the DIOR SALE earlier today, I thought I'd quickly post this haul entry up and then be ultra studious :P ... ok, I confess - partly because I'm elated with the haul. There .. I said it :P
I wasn't too hopeful about snagging the eyeshadow quints so I was thrilled to see quite a good selection of eyeshadow - quite a few purple-themed ones. It would have been smashing if they had the eyeshadow quint in CRUSH GLOW though (LOL! Asking for it right?!).
From what I've seen at the counters, the prices of the eyeshadow quints sometimes seem to vary a little depending on the collection - the most recent Holiday 2010 Collection's quints were priced at SGD$94 but I was told some others are between SGD$89-91. I'm not the most familiar with them - I usually admire them from afar (not just at the Dior counters but on Iris' blog! LOL! (well, recently I got up close and personal with the quint in FIVE GOLDS but that's another story, another entry *wink*). Here are the ones I picked up today:
How can I possibly leave this behind - Love at First Swatch....
I got a little reminded of Iris' TOKIDOKI quad when I saw this - not quite the same, but the blue and the bronzey brown reminded me of cute little MOZZARELLA!
I didn't take this at first but then as I kept looking at it again and again, I knew I was going to regret if I didn't, so it came home too!
This was Limited Edition ... soo pretty with the lace motifs that will disappear soon enough ... but soooo sooo pretty!
Each Quint was priced at SGD$35 at the sale.
**************************************************************
Love the name!
This was SGD$12 at the sale

All the lipsticks and lipgloss I picked up retailed at SGD$15 at the sale - I was really tempted to get more but quickly walked away so I won't give in to temptation! I have one Rouge Dior Addict lipstick (Exotic Pink) and I love the texture while I've bought my mom the Rouge Diors a couple of times so I was confident about the texture and payoff :) If I remember correctly, the Rouge Diors retail for around SGD$40?
A reddish-coppery shade that reflects a lot of gold shimmer - well at least in the lighting that I swatched it in!
This swatched as a reddened caramel shade - but it looks pretty red in normal lighting. But its lovely either way!
I was thrilled when I saw this because I quite remember swatching this at Robinsons Centrepoint (unless I mixed up the numbers) and I thought the mauve-rose shade with fine shimmer was lovely.
And I'm like a child - the holographic-esque boxes really get me with all the teal and orange flashes!
Somehow this refused to photograph accurately until what must have been my 20th attempt! A deep hot pink - hence the name - and now, I have Michael Buble's Fever stuck in replay in my head ... I thought of my mom when I picked this up and am intending to give it to her :)
Loveeeeeee ...

Je t'aime, ma chérie!
I have been wanting MISS DIOR CHERIE for the LONGEST time and today, I snagged the EDT for SGD$70 (100ml)! Wheeeee!
*****************************************************************
Yeah, so I played truant from my own revision time-table today and will pay dearly for it by sitting up tonite with my books. But really, I'm soo happy and satisfied with the haul so that's a good thing!
I actually have several haul entries (ahem...) lurking in the background, including my METRO LADIES NIGHT haul but I can't squeeze them in right now - after exams! :)
Have a great week and weekend and thanks for stopping by!

Hope you get your hands on something you like!
First the
retrolicious party, then the Shiseido sale, and also the Dior sale! *sob* thinking of all the great discounts i could have gotten.
Even with my stipend, there's no respite from hauling but I'm proud to
say, I'm not a collector - I use everything I buy, even if it sits BNIB in the drawer for a bit 
Great haul, Kas! That Academy Pink Lipstick caught my eyes! And the Silk Fuchsia Lipgloss? IS TO DIE FOR!
