While I sometimes hint at my crazy work schedule in this blog,
I must also say that some of my bosses have been pretty great.
We recently underwent a major re-structuring of the organisation,
and so things have just gone mad at work.
Despite that, my boss okay-ed me taking a couple hours off after a meeting
and I rushed down to the Beauty Asia Fair 2013.
I missed the event last year,
and would have been bummed if I missed it again this year.
Unfortunately, from what I understood, this year's event seemed less eventful.
By the time I got there on the second day,
many items were already sold out and not re-stocked,
or some of the newer collections were not even in yet.
I think my wallet weeped in relief when my wishlist was whittled down by more than half.
Despite that, my damage was pretty huge:
2 packs of Seche Vite TC (the huge ones),
Blue Cross Cuticle Remover (my first time trying),
Poshe basecoat and topcoat,
and a galleon of polish remover.
I had a hard time carrying that galleon home.
My collegues all wondered what the hell I was doing with detergent when I came back to the office.
Trio of Misa polishes that I've been eyeing for a while:
Working Hard or Hardly Working,
Paint my Nails @ Work,
Trust Fund.
Love these names.
Zoya Sooki,
Orly R.I.P.,
OPI Glitzerland.
All 3 were on my wishlist.
And I was good.
I put back many many more OPIs and Orlys.
Lippmann in Cleopatra in New York and Lady Sings the BLues.
I was hunting for Lippmann Let's Go Crazy,
but no bueno.
*sad*
China Glaze in Bad Kitty, Blue Hawaiian and Running in Circles.
I'm thinking of Running in Circles for a St. Patty's day mani.
Yes? No?
And lastly nail glue and some nail foils for nail art.
Here's a close up of the foils:
The Chanel logo,
Louis Vuitton's,
Silver crowns, and
who can resist Hello Kitty?!

That is an awesome haul! Definitely use that green for a St. Patty's manicure :)
St Patty's mani decided!
What a great day's haul! Especially love those little Hello Kitty foils (so cute!!), and Blue Hawaiian looks amazing.
Yeaah! The Hello Kitty was just too irresistable and what caught my eye first with those foils!
