Thailand Haul: Makeup and Beauty Products

These are all of the beauty/makeup products that I got while in Thailand.


Dolly Wink Eyeliner in white. I got this at an import store near the airport. Some woman has the hookup and gets all of these products for her store from different countries, most of which cannot be purchased in Thailand outside of this store. Dolly Wink is a Japanese brand that I have heard some good things about. I used this liner to line my waterline and brighten up my eyes. I liked it. Love the packaging. The cap has a little flower on the top. 

Canmake liquid eyeliner in black. This is another Japanese brand.  I purchased this at a Watson's.  I wouldn't repurchase this. It didn't last all day and smudged all over my face. The panda look is not a good look for my everyday makeup.  It has a felt tip applicator that is really stiff and hard to apply. 


Oriental Princess Juicy Fruity Lip Care.  I was looking around the store, sniffing things and came upon these lip glosses. The smell is soooo nice and I ended up purchasing one for myself in the pomegranate scent, then went back and got some more for myself and my friends. They were having a 25% off sale for their members (which one of the girls I was visiting has a membership). They had six flavors: Pomegranate, Strawberry, Orange, Cherry, Raspberry and Blueberry. I got one of each flavor, except for the Cherry one. The cherry scent was nasty.  The girls working at the counter said that these are their best sellers. Each scent is tinted according to the flavor and the color is really subtle on the lips.


Also taking advantage of the 25% off sale, I purchased this highlighter and lip gloss. The highlighter came in two colors, gold and pink. The top of the highlighter is a solid pearly shimmer and the bottom is a liquid highlight.  The lip gloss had three colors. Red, Pink and Peach.  I ended up with the peach color, which is the least saturated of the three.


This is one of the brands that I was most looking forward to check out and also the hardest to find in Thailand. Lioele is a Korean brand and unlike the other brands that I was looking into, there aren't any Lioele storefronts in Thailand.  I found these products in a supermarket on accident. There was a small display of Lioele products and I picked up a few of their face products.  This is the Skin Fix Powder Pact in Moisture Type.  There was also an oil control version, I have combination skin and basically what made me choose the moisture  one was that this was closer to my skin tone than the oil control one.  The color is a little light on my skin, but I just use my faux tan from Bare Minerals all over my face to darken it up a little bit and it works. I love the packaging on this brand. Everything is super cute!


Lioele Beyond the Solution BB Cream. I love this BB Cream.  It has coverage to cover up my acne scars and hyper pigmentation without having to build up the product on my face. I don't need concealer using this BB Cream.  I would definitely repurchase this BB Cream. I have a Texas company that sells the Lioele products linked in this post, so when I run out I will have somewhere to repurchase without having to deal with international shipping. 


Lioele Water Drop BB.  This BB cream has less coverage than the Triple the Solution BB cream above. If you need light coverage and nice skin this might work for you. I have neither, so I have to layer concealer and foundation powder on top to give myself the coverage that I need with this product. 


Red Earth is an Australian beauty brand that we don't have in the US.  I got both of these products at the import store, but they are also sold throughout Thailand.  They were having a sale on all Red Earth products that day so I picked up a couple of things. One of the girls that I was visiting used the Brow Perfecting kit on her eyebrows, so I previously tried hers out. I needed something for my eyebrows and liked her kit so I went to pick one up for myself. I originally went up to the girl at the stand to see what color I should use and she ended up putting a full face of makeup on me AND  shaped my eyebrows complimentary! I ended up with the brunette eyebrow kit and the Pure Color Luxe Lipstick in Peach Berry. It's a cream lipstick in a nice nude color. 


This was also purchased at the import store. I had never heard of this brand before, but being obsessed with Hello Kitty I picked up two of the lip products. I got the Kiss Lipstick in 05 and the Lip moisture pot, in ?. There wasn't a color for the pot, but it's a sheer red shade. The lipstick is more of a gloss and is a super sheer pink color. Can't beat the packaging on these products. the top of the lipstick is a rhinestone! I couldn't find any information on this brand. It's not the same as the Hello Kitty brand sold in Sephora.  I think that this brand is sold in drugstores, but wasn't able to find a website. 


I stopped in Beauty Buffet and picked up two of their products. Gino McCray is the professional brand that is sold in Beauty Buffet stores.  I got a lipstick in Oranda and a shimmer powder that I gave to my sister.  The lipstick applies very orange when first applied, but turns to a darker, redder color once it oxidizes. 


This is a brand that I had never heard of, but found out about while I was in Thailand from one of the girls that I was visiting. I got their Baby BB cream and Super Black liquid eyeliner. Both of these products were really affordable at around $3.00 each.  The BB cream came in one color and ends up being very white on my skin.


I picked up a bottle of Soap and Glory Hand Food at Watsons.  I really liked this hand cream and it's a staple in my bag. The scent smells really nice and isn't too strong.  The price for the Soap and Glory line is comparable to the prices in the US, as they are a UK line. The Watson's didn't have that big or different a selection that you can find in a US Sephora


I picked up a few sheet masks from Boots.  I heard that asian sheet masks are really good so I got some to try out. 
These are hand and feet masks. One side has the mask and the other side has a glove/sock to put on over the mask. I have never seen something like this in the US and was intrigued.  I might save these for the winter time when my hands and feet get really dry and cracked. 


I found this mask at Watson's.  Tea Tree is supposed to be good for acne so I wanted to try this out out. 


I got this at the airport in Japan.  My sister is obsessed with her Shu Uemura eyelash curler, but for some reason Shu Uemura pulled out of the US market and can only be purchased overseas or through their website.  I got my sister a replacement eyelash curler for $20.00 (+ shipping) from the Shu Uemura website for her birthday in March. I wasn't planning the trip to Thailand at that time, otherwise I would have waited. This trip I tried to look for the pad replacements for the curler, but I guess they don't manufacture them anymore. They sold the eyelash curlers in a Shu Uemera store in Thailand on sale for around $18.00, I saw it at the duty free in the Bangkok airport for around $17.00 and found it at the duty free at the Japan airport for $10.00! So glad I waited to get this in Japan.  I could have gotten a pack of two curlers for around $18.00, but thought that was eyelash curler overkill.
