Purplle Haul

 OK so this one's been sitting in my drafts from forever. By the time I got around to posting it Purplle seems to have had 3 different sales already 😂I have a hard time resisting sales especially the Purplle one. I bought a whole bunch of products I didn't even need back in February in the I ❤️Beauty sale. This time around I was wondering how to deal with the sale when I saw that a lot of offers that didn't even make sense to me. My brain finds it easier to process things like Buy 1 Get 1 etc over Shop for 500 & get 150 off. What is this even? Are you getting a good enough discount? God only knows or probably the math geek does. I definitely don't. Since I'm currently on a "Low Buy" this haul was not even supposed to happen.

I was running out of nail polish remover & was intending to buy only that & how supremely gorgeous are these ones from NY Bae! Anyhow one thing lead to another & here we are

NY Bae SkinFIDENT Erasin' Dual Tone Nail Lacquer Remover in Hibiscus Gin & Blueberry Vodka

INR 68 for 120 ml each

Can we take a minute to appreciate these beauties? I have never seen a 2 toned nail paint remover before & fell in love instantly. Yet to use.

Alps Goodness Dragonfruit Brightening Facial Kit

INR 100 for 34 gm

I do all my beauty treatments at home including facials and wanted to try this one next. I wish it was packaged in tubes instead of sachets. 

Good Vibes Wine Facial Kit

INR 200 for 40 gm

I love wine facials & have tried the kits from pretty much every brand offering them. Fingers crossed.

Rich feel Skin Logix Advanced Night Repair Serum

INR 135 for 25 gm

I didn't particularly need this... It was just sitting there in my wishlist since forever. Felt bad to just leave it there. Ah well.

Alps Goodness Shea Butter Shower Gel

INR 109 for 200 ml

Again something I don't need right know. God knows I have enough but got it anyway.

Are any of you doing a Low Buy or No Buy? What are you doing to keep from shopping? Let me know. 

Purplle Sale Haul

Purplle recently had their biggest sale of the year. I had decided to not buy anything since I have way more makeup & skincare than a normal person would need. And like a nitwit I decided to check out what was on offer. We all know how that would have ended & here we are with my haul.

NY Bae x Shakti Liquid Lipstick in Tango Tease

INR 280 for 2.7 ml (Sale price 140/-)

This was the first thing I got. I'm a sucker for good packaging & wanted this from when I had seen it. I got this shade on the recommendation of my namesake Tripti who runs a YouTube channel Anantmaya Beauty. I love this caramel shade.

NY Bae x Shakti Creamy Matte Lipstick in Heel Pull 9

INR 249 for 4.2 gm (Sale price 125/-)

I loved the packaging when I saw it online but in person it's not that impressive. I love the shade though.

NY Bae Nail Laquer, Sugar Effect, Sprinkles Sundae in Plum Yogurt Sprinkles Sundae

INR 75 for 6 ml (Sale price 38/-)

This was the first thing I tried from this entire haul & loved it immediately. The best part of this is that it dries in 5 minutes flat + it doesn't have that typical nail polish smell. It's very much there when you apply but it disappears soon after. The only con is that it chips quite fast.

I - AMSTERDAM Nail Paint in Tenderness of Tulipa Single Early

INR 75 for 7 ml (Sale price 38/-)

Who names these things! It's insane. Nice pretty pastel pink. I can see myself using this all summer.

NY Bae Nail Lacquer Remover in Pink

INR 50 for 30 ml (Sale price 25/-)

With most branded nail polish removers hiking up their prices like crazy I was on the look out for something new & affordable. 25 bucks is peanuts for this. Let's see how we'll it works.

Alps Goodness Face wash in Mulberry & Rose

INR 99 for 100 ml (Sale price 50/-)

I have tried this brand's face masks & scrubs in the past. Waiting to try this one out.

DermDoc Skin Restoration Face Serum with Squalene & Vitamin E

INR 199 for 10 ml (Sale price 99/-)

I wanted to try this brand & something with Squalene. 2 birds with one stone.

Biotique Bio Dandelion Visibly Ageless Serum

INR 230 for 40 ml (Sale price 115/-)

This is one my favourite skin serums of all time. I obviously couldn't pass up on a flat 50% off & decided to stock up and bought 2.

Vayam Ayurveda Eladi Moisture Restoring Night Cream

INR 200 for 30 gm (Sale price 100/-)

One more brand I have been meaning to try from a while. Let's see how it goes.

Aroma Magic Moringa Skin Toner

INR 125 for 100 ml (Sale price 63/-)

Aroma Magic Rose Hip Skin Toner

INR 125 for 100 ml (Sale price 63/-)

Aroma Magic makes my favourite toners & I couldn't pass this up.

Biotique Bio Almond Lip Balm

INR 25 for 10 gm (Sale price 13/-)

JLT purchase

Biotique Bio Berry Plumping Lip Balm

INR 175 for 12 gm (Sale price 88/-)

Another thing I've been eyeing from some time.

Good Vibes Lip Balm - Pinacolada

INR 125 for 8 gm (Sale price 63/-)

Pretty much the only product from Good Vibes that I haven't tried yet.

Good Vibes Hydrating Hand Cream in Cherry Blossom 

INR 145 for 50 gm (Sale price 73/-)

I wanted to try the Nivea hand cream but couldn't find it & settled for this one instead.

Alps Goodness Essential Oil - Tangerine 

INR 99 for 5 ml (Sale price 50/-)

I've tried essential oils from this brand before & loved it. Will be trying this in a few DIYs.


These are the things I simply couldn't resist. If my stash wasn't as substantial I might have bought a lot more. Did you guys shop at the Purplle sale too?

NY Bae SkinFIDENT Serum Haul

If there is one brand I've been hearing of more than Good Vibes, it has to be NY Bae. Since I already have more makeup than I know what to do with I held back from buying anything from them. Imagine my happiness when I discovered that they have started dabbling in skincare as well. Purplle is perpetually running BOGO deals or some other variant like Buy 3 Get 3 etc. I obviously couldn't resist & bought these 6 serums. Because of the offer going on when I ordered, I ended up paying around 100 INR for each of these.

Every time that I complained about lipsticks or nail paints not having names, someone at NY Bae was obviously listening because every single one of their products have names & funky, tongue-in-cheek kind of ones.

These are the serums I picked up. For some reason only 2 of these had the clingwrap kinda packaging around the cardboard box & the rest were naked. And although I had seen the pictures of the product before ordering I was still struck by how plain & medicinal they looked.

NY Bae SkinFIDENT Serum, with Glycolic Acid, Radiant as Show Stopper Serum, for oily skin

INR 175 for 10 ml

NY Bae SkinFIDENT Serum, with Hyaluronic Acid and Vitamin C, Ageless as the Liberty Lady, for skin softening

INR 175 for 10 ml

NY Bae SkinFIDENT Serum, with 20 % Vitamin C, Timeless as Times Square, for skin brightening

INR 175 for 10 ml

NY Bae SkinFIDENT Serum, with Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate, Eternal as the Empire State, for wrinkle-free skin

INR 175 for 10 ml

NY Bae SkinFIDENT Serum with Glycolic Peel, Lit as Grand Central Terminal Serum, for tan removal

INR 199 for 10 ml

NY Bae SkinFIDENT Serum, with Vitamin B & Niacinamide, Lit as Central Park, for skin texture enhancement

INR 225 for 10 ml

I'm planning to start with the last one on the list since it claims to tackle skin texture. Let me know which ones you would like me to review.
