#AldenAtSMCityFairview + Grand Fairview Sale

     Hi dearies! I've witnessed another phenomenal event yesterday and when the word 'phenomenon' comes to mind, I presume you already know what I'm talking about. The most sought after young actor today, also called 'pambansang bae' Alden Richards visited SM City Fairview to serenade his fans at Cinema 9. This album tour/ meet and greet also kicked off the start of Grand Faiview Sale that offers 70% off on selected items. 

     During the event, thirty lucky fans who bought his Wish I May debut album had a chance to meet and greet him on stage. But before this exciting part of the event, SM City Fairview prepared a short program for all the fans inside the cinema. Wanna see the highlight of the event and some of the paparazzi shots that I have? Pardon the lighting, angle, and quality of photos as it is really a pain to take photos because the crowd gone wild when Alden sang God Gave Me You. 

#AldenAtSMCityFairview + Grand Fairview Sale

     It was a short but super sweet and exciting event. It's so obvious that Aldub nation loves Alden Richard so much! The venue was embraced with Alden's enchanting voice and humble vibes. I believed that some of the fans cried out of joy. It's goosebumps for me every time I hear him talk to his fans in a very courteous manner. He was so game to have photo op with his fans like taking a selfie with the crowd while singing.

How to Save Money on Beauty Products by Buying Online

     You probably use a variety of beauty products on your entire body to keep everything from your skin to your hair looking healthy, and if you're tired of paying top dollar for your beauty products, from your makeup to your shampoo, you may be thinking about buying fewer items or switching to low-cost brands. 

      But the truth is that you really don't have to give up on any of your favorite beauty product brands, and you can still get the products that you've grown to love while saving money at the same time. The trick is to purchase your beauty products online. How can you do that and save money? Continue reading for a few tips.

How to Save Money on Beauty Products by Buying Online

Shop Your Favorite Stores Online

     Many of your favorite brick and mortar stores, from makeup shops and department stores to discount pharmacies, have online stores that allow customers to shop and make purchases on the internet. Take advantage of this convenient feature, but also make sure that you check a site for exclusive online deals that will allow you to save even more money. You may even be able to purchase you products online and pick them up in the store so you can have them right away without having to wait for them to ship to you. 

Sign Up for Private Sale Websites

     Private sale websites are becoming increasingly popular because they offer some really deep discounts on your favorite products every day. All you have to do to gain access to the deals is sign up for a membership with the website, which is typically free. Once you're a member, you'll then start receiving emails with exclusive offers and deals. You may be surprised by how many offers you get and how they great they are. 

Shop Web-Only Drugstores

     Drugstores that are only found online also offer some really great discounts on your favorite beauty products every day. Rather than driving to go to the store, walking through the aisles to find what you're looking for, and waiting on a long line to get to the cash register, you can instead sit comfortably at home, surf to your favorite online drugstore's website, and make your purchases. 

     Oftentimes, these websites will even have free shipping offers, especially when you spend over a certain amount of money, so this is a good reason to stock up on your favorite products so you won't have to buy them again for a long time. And, of course, sign up for mailing lists to gain access to exclusive offers and sales to save even more money.

Stock Up by Buying More Now

     The great thing about online shopping is the fact that you can buy many of the same product in order to save money. By purchasing in bulk in this manner, you can really save a lot of money in the long run, especially if you purchase during a sale or you have a really good discount code to apply to your order. 

     Again, many people choose to purchase more in order to save money on shipping costs, but purchasing in bulk ultimately allows you to make fewer purchases over time, which will also save you more money. The key is to make your purchases when the prices are at their lowest. After all, there aren't any restrictions set upon how many of a single item you can buy online. 

Shop on Amazon

     Amazon is the biggest and most popular online retailer, and you can find just about anything, including a vast array of beauty products, on there. The great thing about Amazon is the fact that you can get free shipping after you spend a certain amount of money. Plus, there are many third party sellers available that have their own products for sale, so you have a lot more options than first meets the eye. This allows you to compare prices and get the lowest priced deal on any item that you're searching for. And at these low prices, you can definitely stock up so you can save even more money in the long run. 

     If you want to, you can even start selling beauty products yourself online. Click here to learn about how you can start your very own ecommerce website quickly and easily. However, even if you don't want to sell the products yourself, rest assured that there are plenty of websites out there where you can purchase you favorite beauty items at the lowest prices so you never have to break the bank just to look great.

5 Reasons Why I Highly Recommend Beauty MNL

     Shopping online is one of the most accessible form of shopping these days as almost everyone is now online. Admit it or not, we are all busy. Even though we have time to drop by our favorite malls and department stores, there are times that we only shop for every day essentials. For beauty aficionado like me who live North of the metro, I find it hard to shop some mid and high end brands that I've been using or would love to try. Because of this dilemma, I've found two solutions to my problem: travel all the way from North to South just to go to the nearest mall carrying the brands I'm looking or find an online shop that carries the brand. NARS and Davines are two brands that's on my beauty wish list and I don't have immediate access to the stores that carries both.

     Fortunately, I've stumbled upon BeautyMNL. It's one of the up-and-coming beauty sites in the country. A major part of BeautyMNL is its Shop, where you can buy various skin care and beauty products and have it delivered to your doorstep within 24 hours. Sounds a truly promising shopping site for all our beauty and skin care needs. I visited the site, browsed their shop, and enjoyed my shopping experience. I was in skin care, makeup, and everything-cosmetics heaven! Scroll down to see what's inside my Beauty MNL haul below :)

5 Reasons Why I Highly Recommend Beauty MNL 

What is Beauty MNL?

   
     Beauty MNL is an online shop for the best skin care, makeup, tools and other beauty related stuff. It's a one-stop-shop that I highly recommend because they want you to feel your most beautiful. Every. Single. Day. Here are other reasons why in your next beauty shopping online, the best destination is Beauty MNL.com

1. They have more than 300 brands and counting. There are hard-to-find brands that you can only score at Beauty MNL. Yes, there are other online shops who can offer those but sometimes the question is authenticity. With Beauty MNL, you are sure that you're getting the real product in a very reasonable price.

300 brands and counting!

2. It's more than just an online shop. The site is also an interactive magazine. BLOOM the Magazine gives you fresh news for your daily dose of beauty, health and wellness, lifestyle and guides. Enjoy, learn and get inspired while doing your online shopping!

3. Learn from the gurus. Hello, Liz Lanuzo of The Project Vanity :) Read their stories, get inspiration from their experiences and learn from their beauty advice. So while doing this, you can now assess what products you'll buy at Beauty MNL. It's like having a virtual assistant because they are giving recommendations so you don't need to worry about an impulse buy online.

4. The prices are affordable and reasonable. Shopping at their website is a breeze. No complicated tasks to do while shopping. Just pick a product and place them in your cart. They offer discounted prices too. As for the payment, they offer different modes that are so convenient for online shoppers. Ask me about the shipping? THE FASTEST I've experienced so far! I ordered my items around 10 p.m. and boy they arrived the next day before afternoon. The packaging is simple, with a delivery receipt that's itemized and very easy to understand. For Metro Manila addresses, expect delivery within 24 hours on weekdays (and Monday delivery for weekend orders). Meanwhile, it will take 3-5 working days for the rest of the country.

5 Reasons Why I Highly Recommend Beauty MNL 

5. Since holiday season/Christmas shopping officially started, Beauty MNL has a gift guide section. Still don't know what to give your girl friends, relatives, and bff's this Christmas, let Beauty MNL help and guide you in choosing the best gift to give this holiday season.

     
     Now let's go to my simple haul. These are the products on my wish list that I found in Beauty MNL. I considered three items in my haul not easily accessible so yeah, I can say I found what I need under one roof. I will just say a little information about my haul and will just give full details on my product reviews.

5 Reasons Why I Highly Recommend Beauty MNL 

     
     I've been lusting over NARS cosmetics for more than five years now. When I saw NARS Schiap swatches from beauty bloggers all over the world, I said to myself that I will buy a tube in the future. My dream came true! I wasn't able to buy the shade that I'm lemming but I found another love in NARS Audacious Lipstick in Michiyo :)

     Second that I've been dreaming of all these years is NARS Blush in Orgasm. I saw this blush shade from the makeup kit of celebrities like Lucy Torres. I fell in love with the shade years ago and I said to myself that I will save up to buy a pan in the future. Now, I already have this. Thanks to Beauty MNL :) 

5 Reasons Why I Highly Recommend Beauty MNL 
NARS Blush in Orgasm

   
     The following beauty products you'll see below are the products that I dubbed as not easily accessible. I can't say it's hard to find because there are online shops who also sell these brands BUT the only problem I always encounter is it's either the shade is out of stock, the product hasn't arrived yet or simply it available in selected shops. First is Naturactor Cover Face Foundation. This shade is always OOS or hard to find, good thing Beauty MNL offers a wide selection of shades. So when I saw the shade 130, I immediately placed it in my shopping cart.

5 Reasons Why I Highly Recommend Beauty MNL 
Naturactor Cover Face Foundation

   
     Another product that I can't find in stores, malls and local online shops is Davines Oi Oil. This is my favorite high-end hair product. When I emptied one bottle, I had a hard time finding a new one as I need to look for selected salons carrying the brand. It took me months to restock on this but to no avail. The only answer is Beauty MNL. I bought a new bottle that will last me a long time!

5 Reasons Why I Highly Recommend Beauty MNL 

   
     And lastly, a new lip balm from Shiseido. I'm not sure if this is available in Shiseido counters. I picked this because I'm running out of lip balm the time I'm shopping at Beauty MNL. Out of curiosity, I bought one. Well, it's something new for me and since the brand is Shiseido no need for me to ask why.

5 Reasons Why I Highly Recommend Beauty MNL 
Shiseido Water in Lip Cool Menthol

   
     There you go, my simple haul from Beauty MNL. So next time you're shopping for beauty essentials online, be sure to visit them and discover more than what you're looking for. Here's a treat for all Beauty MNL shoppers, join the #selfieMNL contest. If you like taking selfies (hihi we looove selfies!), join our #selfieMNL contest!
