I am so tempted to get some quality colours from Artistry. There is a promotion this month and they’ve got some really beautiful colours to offer.

It would be a whopping RM130++ if I decide to splurge on the four colours and the specially priced case. Not to mention, I am tempted to get the compact foundation which is ‘conveniently’ priced at RM52 *methinks* not including the compact case!

Anyway, two sets of colours to choose from.. such a hard decision to make!

I think I am starting this ‘Stretch Your Dollar’ corner in regards to the plumetting economy. Basically, I would just spill spontaneous and random ideas how to save your money yet not compromise in daily splurges.

Today, I would like to throw a very simple idea. Learn from the expert but grab the better deals off the shelves. For example, I have been eyeing the Artistry Gentle Action Makeup Remover. It is something like lotion which you put all over your face to remove makeup. However, it is RM61.

So what did I do?

I take that idea and went to search for a cheaper option.

I got this Demaq Expert Milk-To-Toner 2 in 1 Makeup Remover! It is only RM24.90.. stretching my dollars even more.

Yes, of course I would not be getting the exact same thing, but I have to compromise some quality for the amount of money, haven’t I? This product is also cream-like but the wonderful thing about it is that it transforms into colourless toner which makes it feel worth while. Well, I think I can live with L’Oreal another day.. it is, after all, not that bad a brand.

At the end of the day, I am still one happy girl.

I used to be quite against direct sales and marketing stunts but somehow I cannot help but to find out more about this whole deal. How come some people can earn so much a month just by doing full time direct sales? I used to want to run away from these people because all they do is to promote, promote and convince you to buy. Sometimes you just end up buying out of courtesy. And it burns your pocket too.

Well, sometimes I do things I do not like to see other people doing. This is just one of them. No worries, I am still not the promoter and please-buy person.. but really, Amway is really appealing. At least its products especially those which are environmental friendly. I would want to introduce them to my family.. though I know most are just skeptical about this.

As for me, I think I might stick with Artistry for some more good years. Forget Biotherm.. hhohoho.
