Shopping list?
18:02I have a list of things that I wanna buy and have been wanting to buy for a very, very, very, long time. Due to pokai financial reasons, I had to wait until now. But the thing about now is, everything. LET ME SAY EVERYTHING in Malaysia is expensive. Okay, so let's cut down the bebel and move on to my list before I start talking about the economic status.
1. MAC Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation
2. MAC Taupe/ Velvet Teddy Matte Lipstick
3. MAC Kinda Sexy/ Faux Matte Lipstick
4. MAC Prep + Prime Lip Primer
*chill guys, it's not ALL mac*
5. The Body Shop Face/ Body Brush
6. Lulu Shimmersude/ Jellytwist Fitflop
7. Maybelline Falsies Mascara
8. Benefit High Brow Glow pencil
*let's take a moment to die for a while with the fact that I am a student and I will only start working part time next year*
But the thing is, what makes it so expensive is because of all the Malaysian taxes!
Here's a comparison price between the original price and Malaysian price.
MAC Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation:
Malaysian price= RM135
Original pricing= RM95
Tax= RM135 - RM95 : RM40
MAC Matte Lipsticks (all colour)
Malaysian price= RM74
Original pricing= RM56
Tax= RM74 - RM56 ; RM18
MAC Prep + Primer Lip Primer
Malaysian price= RM82
Original pricing= RM56
Tax= RM82 - RM56 ; RM26
Now, you have the idea, right? I don't even think I need to go into further details of all the other things that I want to buy. In my conclusion, buying stuffs in Malaysia costs a lot. Save your money, girls! Shop overseas! Or if you can't afford to travel, like me, find someone you know who lives near the original place that product is manufactured and buy it directly from that country itself! Or no one lives nearby, wait for someone you know that is going overseas and buy through them.
But of course for urgent purchases like clothes, you have no choice but to buy in Malaysia. (sighs)
I shall continue later........
