Thai Haul 2019

8:03:00 PM

Hey guys!!!

When was the last time i did a haul post... who can remember, it was eons ago *LOL*. I stopped doing haul posts because i was embarassed at how much i shopped, but then not long after i stopped being such a crazy shopaholic anyway coz i started receiving PR packages regularly and my collection's really got super ridiculous without me actually spending money anymore >.< (about the same time when i became super kiasu and stingy *LOL*).

I also used to buy stuffs to an alarmingly scary amount on each trip i went to (who remembers my epic Singapore/Malaysia/South Korea hauls haha) and nowadays i hardly buy anything in my trips (esp beauty products, i really very very rarely shop for them now) - until Olin and i went to Thailand last month. I bought the most item in one trip in a long long while (and the number's not bad at all compared to my past trips, so... i'm still patting myself on the back anyway :p

But anyway, enough ramblings, it's time to show off you what i bought in Thailand!
Here's everything that i bought (minus the clothes. I bought around a dozen of clothing items >.<. I never liked to show my clothing hauls, i feel like if you'd see them already then it wouldn't be new anymore when i actually wear them for the first time. Weird? Hey, i never claimed to be normal okay...) this time round :
Here's me practicing self control. Because ugh, we didn't buy a lot of luggage allowance (we only shared a 20 kg allowance between the two of us) and also because i am a cashless person, didn't bring a lot of cash hoping i can just use my card but turned out that most cheaper shopping places don't accept cards and even at malls the minimum spending to use card is a bit ridiculous (you can only use card in 7-11 and Watsons if you spend 300 Baht, and even at Jelly Bunny they asked for 500 Baht! That is ridiculously high!) 
First of all : accessories! I think it's not secret that Bangkok is the heaven for quirky earring lovers! They have the most ridiculous earrings ever (like toto, clothes pin, even rubber bands!) and i'm all for that! I went a little ga ga and couldn't stop buying :
My kind of heaven ^^. Btw, a little self plug in.. We also got some earrings (less outrageous than this, a lot more wearable and pretty - coz we know that most people don't share our crazy sense of fashion haha) for StingyBunny so if you are interested in pretty and kawaii earrings at low prices, go check out our online shop! Been a little busy the past month so we haven't update the feed but all collection including #ThaiEdition can be found at our highlights
I am in pastel heaven
The more demure, pretty ones
The whimsical, pastel dream type. So Jap, so luv..
So my favorite creature in the whole wide world is ofc, the unicorn - and my second fave is mermaids!
The sillier, more playful ones
Hey, i actually didn't buy as many as i though it did :p. I also bought some hair acessories :
Couldn't resist the ducks (available at Stingy Bunny, btw) and i die die also want one of the bottle ones. Since my fave drink is water : mineral water hair clip that is!
The prettier ones, unicorn and a diamente bunny ears with ribbons
Then, totally out of character - i didn't buy any shoes (i try to not buy shoes anymore coz i used to love to buy shoes, pretty and cute ones that are not very comfy... Then i never wear them. Most of them are worn once and when i try to wear them again, they crumble...  Be it super cheap ones of the rather pricey ones, so i decided to buy less shoes unless all are crumbling then i can buy more T.T) but i bought THREE sandals!
I don't really buy sandals and currently i only use one furry slip on from VNC that i bought in Malaysia last year, it's already so fugly that i actually need a new one :))
Got this one at Chatuchak market because i was influenced by Xia Xue and Sophie, i die die also must buy one - turned out you can find cheaper ones at Ratchada night market *LOL*. If you want to shop for pretty clothes and stuffs like this pom pom sandals, i would suggest you to check out Ratchada market coz it's not as crazy big as Cathuchak (it's too big, stressful and overwhelming for me haha), much easier to navigate, the clothes arguably not as much but a lot cuter (or at least, better suited to my taste) - and actually cheaper (coz Chatuchak is very famous for tourists so naturally the prices are higher than other markets). Btw, this sandal's not comfy at all :))) just super cute. Oh, it;s customizable btw.
One of my fave brands : Jelly Bunny!!! I really wanted a new slip on (my fave kind of sandals, apparently) and these are on 60% off (it's less than 200k rupiahs) so i snagged this FTL. I also fell in love with loads of their bags but as usual, when there are too many choices in ended up not buying any *LOL*. Jelly Bunny bags are more expensive than their footwear and i find it hard to justify getting them... I already have so many bags so unless i really like it (or it's super cheap), then u wouldn't buy them anymore *self control FTW*
And my favorite : Fila Moomin!!!!! I am currently obsessed with FILA and i've been dreaming about their Disruptor Pastel Rainbow that looks super lolita, but when i learned that Fila's actual price in the US is almost 3x the price in Indonesia, i just couldn't do it. It's much cheaper in Thailand (still super overpriced tho) but it's just so hard to find a standalone FILA store (because we didn't spend much time at malls at all) so in the end i also couldn't buy it in Bangkok zzzzz. Still, i am pretty happy i got this Moomin edition sandals, sooo kawaii!
Immortalizing it before i ruin it by wearing it hahaha. Btw it was pretty cheap! Less than 400k (790 Baht if i remember correctly)
Andddd i only buy ONE bag (so proud of meself)
How can i resist this beauty... You know Baht throws us off sometime into thinking that they are so much more expensive that they actually are *LOL*, i was pretty shocked when we realized that this bag is actually less than IDR 170k converted (and this already including the 2.5% tax because we insisted on using credit card), to think that i spent so much time thinking whether or not i should get it >.<
Now onto the beauty products!

Do you know that Thais took their armpit problems seriously? Neither did i, but they have so many different products for armpits, it's impressive! Nowadays i only buy deodorants in Thai WTF, so i stock up enough to at least next time i go there *LOLOLOL*.
I got Vaseline Dry Serum (our Thai friend, Bo, was like "You don't have Vaseline in Indonesia??? Ofc we have haha, but no armpit dry serum for sure!), some deo powder that is practically from a traditional brand and Bo swears by (she said her grandma uses this brand *LOLOLOL*) and my usual fave crystal deodorant (from another brand than the one i am used to because we had problems finding that brand this time round)
Soap N Glory dry shampoo because it was on sale, Barbie setting spray coz it was also on sale (it was 65 Baht or something WTH, Thais don't play play with discounts) and Unicorn Sweet Pinky perfume from Daiso
We learned before our trip that Daiso Thailand has a unicorn edition makeups and i was super excited for them, but when we finally went into Daiso, turned out that the collection is not that cute (btw, Thai Daiso has crazy selection of makeup!!! A lot more than Daiso Japan even, or Korea) and Daiso Thai is pretty expensive (around IDR 30k per item for the base price). I mean.... I am so used to Daiso Japan (IDR 12k, baby!!!) and South Korea, the most expensive Daiso i would pay is Daiso Malaysia! So i skipped the entire Unicorn edition makeup and only get the perfume.

Speaking of makeup, i used to go to Thailand a LOT when i was younger (in my late teens to early 20s) and back then Thai seems to love fake makeups coz i saw a so many of them being sold everyday but then i guess they see the chance there : they now have LOADS of local copy paste brands! Not fake coz they have their own brands like Sivanna, NeeCara, Odbo (which is also a premium South Korean skin care brand *LOL*) - these are all legit brands okay, they are sold at big malls and Eve and Boy (Thai version of Sephora or Olive Young), they are super cheap and they copy paste famous brands' packaging and products! 
The most makeup that i actually buy with my own money in a long long while...
Some lippies. The Nee Cara has a unicorn edition and they lipstick set was so cheap, even though i already have thousands of lippes at home... How can i resist? And there's a mini Meilinda lippies (again, another brand that sounds like a fake to me *LOL* but it's legit okay) that we are also giving away soon (please check our Instagram if you are interested in getting so free Thai makeups). The Nivea lip balm i only got for the cute holder ofc, i think it's a special Thai edition and they have a lot of different variants, Olin bought 3 or 4 - she is also gonna do a haul post i think so you can check her blog out as well
Blushes from Sivanna and Nee cara... Honestly Sivanna is the brand i was most interested in getting before we went to Bangkok, but when we actually arrived i was distracted by other, cheaper brands :))
Only got 2 eyeshadow palettes, i deserve another pat in the back! You can see that the Sivanna eyehadow palette is an exact copy of MAC/Etude House packaging... Taotao is a Chinese brand lah, got it because it's ridiculously cheap. Btw we planned on doing Open PO but got overwhelmed and busy shopping for ourselves so maybe next time HAHAHA
CathyDoll, Daiso and Odbo highlighter. The Odbo one is recommended by Bo (btw Bo used to work for Althea Korea so she knows her makeup okay!)
Oh i went crazy and bought tonnes of powders coz Thai powders are the best okay!!! I am usually all for Korean makeup but when it comes to powder, Thais are superios trust me! Plus the prices are ridiculous again. I never heard of the brand Sasi and Butae before so it's a stab in the dark while Carhydoll is a brand that i am used to (although i hate their system and principe so i choose not to promote their brand anymore, but i still use and buy them sometimes coz they do have some great products)
More powders from Baby Bright (it's also from Karmart like Cathydoll, so again... I don't actually want to let them appear on my blog but well... I want a thorough haul post so i must include them
I almost didn't include these two because i actually bought and use them right away while we were in Thailand because i totally forgot to bring powder *basically a sin in my book* and my eyeliner decided to totally dry out the first day we arrived! Both products i bought blindly just because i was desperate and they were cheap *LOL* but both performed beautifully so i am highly recommending these two items if you ever seen them, know that they are awesome!
The eyeliner is actually a duo (there's a crayon eyeshadow at the other end) and it's called Browit (i was so worried at first because Browit then it supposed to be brow products, no??? Nope, it's not hahaha) and it's by a famous Thai MUA, Nong Chat. It's a chubby marker tip type, i've been using brush tip for so long that i needed some getting used to this eyeliner but once i do, it's very easy and fast to use (and i can draw VERY thin line if i want even tho the tip is chubby). Very pigmented and long lasting, what more can we ask from an eyeliner? The eyeshadow's okay too, although i am not a fan of non-powder shadow so i rarely use it.

The Sheene BB powder was in a crazy promo (60 Baht, if i remember correctly) and i bought it without any expectation and it turned out to be one of the best, most beautiful face powder i've ever tried and remember - i am beauty blogger. I've tried a LOT of powders. I also love a Cathydoll powder that i tried before so yes, i believe them when they say Thai knows how to make powders! We tried so hard to look for the same powder (bought it at a makeup store in Blue Port, Hua Hin) everywhere but we couldn't find it T.T so so sad! I would've bought 5 *LOL*. It's THAT good).
Last item is this Baby Bright Aloea Vera Serum Wet Tissue because i needed a bonus product to qualify using creadit card at this Japanese store that hubby asked me to buy a stupid figurine from
Phew... Finally we've come to the end of the post! I kinda miss and enjoy doing these haul posts >.<, i guess i will do another one next time i go on a trip if i buy some more items haha.

Is there any product that you are interested in me reviewing? I might not review it on the blog but maybe i can at least talk about it on my IG feed or stories so you'd know my thoughts on them (sounds so self important hahaha i think you know what i mean tho!) - just let me know if you have any requests on the comment section below!

  2. Those are the most kawaii accessories I have ever seen in my life, gorgeous! ^_^ Do many brands over there believe in cruelty free beauty or are they mainly animal tested?
