Althea Shout Out: An Althea Angel's Christmas Wish List 2018

Althea 12/14/2018

Jing! Jing!

Every month the most looked forward feeling after a tough day at work is to come home to receive a similar box like this, from the delivery man. I think they have been popping in quite often lately and I'm loving the feeling of being pampered and surprised with what's in my box.

I dare say, even my husband don't pamper me with a surprise box like this but he does surprise me with his own ways. I used to subscribe to beauty boxes way back, when they were trending in Singapore. However, seeing these companies close down one by one just breaks my heart. Thankfully for Althea, they are here to stay, and they've made me a blessed Angel.

Since its December, which means Christmas is around the corner, I will now be listing my TOP 10 Christmas Wishlist and must haves, from Althea this Christmas which I think you should get too, in the hopes that my secret Santa will pop by and grant me my wish. So, here we go, hang on tight! Coming up with the top 10 is very tough, as everything really seems nice and useful on Althea.

#1 Coringco Cherry Blossom Water Cushion 15g | $24.50SGD

A primer, concealer, water-based brightening and moisturizing cushion which can be used to brighten your dull skin, small and portable which is perfect on the go. Besides, it has a pink casing which suits all ladies. Bring it along anywhere, perfect for your Christmas date as a quick touch up.

#2 RiRe Roller Quick Eyeliner | $6.70SGD

Your eyes are the windows to your soul. What else is more important then highlighting this?
With its roller applicator, I am hoping this product will make drawing your eye-line a breeze.

Althea 9/23/2017

Most importantly, the products are priced affordably, delivered in good condition, bubble wrapped and delivery is super fast and comes straight from Korea. What more can a beauty and skincare junkie like me ask for?

If you haven't already know, there are plenty of activities happening during this time so let me highlight them to you!

The box is specially designed and shaped like a birthday cake so go ahead, unleash your creativity and decorate the birthday box. This is limited to the first 5,000 purchases, while stock last.

Every week, one shopper from each country to win Althea credits.
Based on Country: RM1000,SGD 300, PH10,000, IDR3,000,000, TH8,000, USD200.

More details here.

These are what I've purchased using $50SGD. Most of the items are beauty items and two of them are skincare products. Althea KR has the most affordably priced items and their shipping is always fast. I was very surprised to receive my haul in 2-3 working days despite the holiday season.

Etude House Real Powder Cushion SPF50+/PA+++ ($21)

I love the cushion compacts from Etude house and by now owned quite a few different types of them. I always repurchase these products and stock them up, because they are like my daily staples, and provides me with a good make-up base. Besides that, most of the cushion compacts comes with a high SPF factor which helps keep the UV rays away. So I can just put them on, along with my favourite lip colour and I am all set to go.

Etude House Colour My Brows ($6)

I've been reading raving reviews on this product so I was very excited to be finally trying it out on my brows. I've always worried about the brow colour turning out too light. This colour was just right for me, it was very lasting and quick drying. Despite me perspiring when I was outdoors, it stayed where it is supposed to be, even when i sometimes forgot and wiped my perspiration off, the colour stayed on well on my eye brows.

Etude House Fix and Fix Primer Tone-UP ($15)

My initial thought was to get the primer in various colours to try on, but remembered reading that the mint primer would help to soothe redness on my skin, hence I have chosen the mint primer. I use it more as a concealer to conceal my eczema spots on my forehead as well as some pimply areas of my skin and the side of nose. This worked well to tone down the redness, softening the spot and making it easier to apply my cushion but failed to blend away the spot.

The Face Shop Rice Water Bright, Foaming Cleanser ($7)

You've read so much about the benefits of washing your face with rice water right? This cleanser foams up easily and remove all the dirt without ripping my skin's moisture. Like what they have said, you'll be hooked after using this. For just $7 a tube, i think its money very well spend, plus the husband gets to share this with me.

Lebaton Aloe Soothing Essence Mask ($1)

Do you know what to do when you wish to round up your purchases? Grab some mask. They are usually $1-$2 a piece in Althea and you get to pick from plenty of them. I've chosen the Aloe Vera mask that helps sooth my skin in this super hot weather.

That's the end of my purchases... so after you shop.... you'll get a chance to win some Althea points! Here's how...
