Early Friday, I had decided to hit a couple of beauty stores before my weekend starts esp since I know my Saturday (yesterday) schedule’s quite full. So, I found myself dragging K yet again in an under-an-hour-shopping trip held in Glorietta.

The main reason why I needed to stop by The Body Shop was the need to replenish my Tea Tree Oil Cover Stick from TBS because mine is about to run out but I spotted a couple of things that I just had to also put in my shopping cart. Gah.

I’ve been meaning to buy new makeup brushes to replace the ones I’ve been using so I thought I’d start with a Foundation brush purchase esp since I use liquid makeup a lot. I’ve been using either disposable makeup sponges or my fingers. I’d occasionally use a brush esp whenever I use the Neutrogena Mineral Sheers Liquid Makeup.

As most of you all know, TBS has this selection of seasonal lip balms and a personal favourite is the Cranberry lip balm so while I was at the counter paying, I spotted it and decided to get one as well, despite the annoying sales lady who clearly lacked comprehensive abilities (sorry but I was thoroughly irritated with her know-it-all attitude but couldn’t answer a simple yes or no question, that’s all.) Good thing I loved TBS otherwise I would’ve ditched the shopping trip just because of this encounter. Anyway, it’s a curious thing that the lip balm is now packed in this tin container. Odd size and shape but it’s a little bulkier than usual if you decide to carry it around.

Tea Tree Oil Cover Stick, Php 349.00
Foundation Brush, Php 995.00
Lip Balm in Cranberry, Php 249.00

How about you ladies? What’s on your beauty list that you know you need to buy real soon? Any of them from TBS?
