Daiso (Japanese Store) Haul!

I havent really bought any makeup or beauty products since I came back from London. Everything is pretty much the same old and new products (like the Revlon Lip Butters that I really want to try!) take a long time to arrive here in Saudi. So I haven't been inspired to buy much.
I recently came across Daiso in one of the malls here. Daiso is a Japanese discount store with branches all over the world . I first saw Judy from itsjudytime on YouTube talk about it and show how different their products were.
Now I don't usually buy products like face washes or face creams from discount stores (specially ones in a language that I cannot read!), but here is some of the stuff I got.
The pictures are self explanatory but I have captioned them anyway.

Volume eyelashes with a cross pattern
Eye makeup remover: liquid filled swabs, AMAZING idea and work really well! 

Glossy lipstick pot. Includes mirror and lip brush. Great for carrying around.
Nail Art pen with an applicator stick.
Eyebrow fibre gel to add definition to thin eyebrows. I guess I might try mixing this with mascara too!
Cleaning face cream with coal for oily skin (Tried this like a hot cloth cleanser, worked GREAT!)

I hope you guys enjoyed this post as much as I enjoyed shopping for it! Just thought this was something different to share apart from the regular beauty products. Do let me know if you would like to see any of these products in more detail.

For the information of my Saudi readers, the Daiso that I went to is at the HyperPanda with the giant trolley :)

OOTD: Outfit of the Day - Colour blocking

Since I have kind of been into plain colour blocking and looking for those kind of inspirations but I didnt want to do harsh colour blocking, for this outfit, I ended up adding a white cotton skirt that adds a bit of lightness to the whole outfit.

Red racer back tank top: Primark
Skirt: Koton (I think this is a Turkish brand but they have stores here in the Middle East. They have a good selection of skirts and other stuff)
Blazer: Primark
Gladiator sandals: Random shop in Portobello Market
Owl Necklace: Ebay (can't remember the seller as this is from about 4 years ago, but there are LOADS around now)
