I LOVE ebay! I've purchased many different items from it over the years including makeup, clothing, electronics, etc! I even got defrauded once! With paypal's buyer protection, that situation ended well :-)
I often spend time on ebay searching for cheap and interesting finds- beauty related and otherwise. So, I thought I'd share some cool items I've purchased before and some new ones I recently came across. Take a look.
☮ Clean & Clear Oil Blotting Sheets, two packs for 4.88 US. If you've ever used these before and bought them at your nearest drugstore, you're probably used to paying at least $6 before taxes for a single pack! Getting 2 packs for less the cost of one is a dang good deal! Here is another version of the oil blotting sheets which I haven't tried, but are worth trying.
☮ Biore Deep Cleansing Pore Strips, one pack of 10 strips for 4.48 US. Purchasing these on ebay, you're still saving a few dollars. I love using these strips once in a while as I do find that they work! Last year, I posted a Michelle Phan video where she showed us how to make our own pore strips! The Biore strips are a little more convenient system, but equally effective.
☮ Hair Removal Coil, 99 cents US. I have yet to try this item, but what reviews I have read for the brand name version of this- it seems as if it is an effective facial hair remover, especially for the upper lip area. I have very sensitive skin, and I find I often break out when using wax strips on my upper lip area. Tweezing seems to aggravate my skin a little less. I'm intending to buy this soon.
☮ Garlic Peeler, 2.30 US. Again, I haven't tried this tool before but it seems like it might useful for peeling a few pieces of garlic! We cook a lot of our foods with a ginger-garlic paste and so we usually use the boil in the microwave technique to remove garlic skins. However, when using a few pieces of fresh garlic in meals, this could prove a handy tool.
☮ Egg White Separator, 1.99 US. Now this item I must have! We make this Lebanese garlic sauce on a pretty regular basis, and the most annoying part of the recipe is separating egg whites from the yolk. This utensil could help streamline the process! haha
☮ Plastic Bag Sealer, 2.95 US. I've never tried one of these before, but it seems like it might be useful when bagging fruits, cheeses and other items. I would be curious to see whether the sealing has any major impact on retaining freshness.
☮Nylon Reusable Shopping Bag, 99 cents US. The last time I went shopping, I grabbed my reusable canvas bag to carry my goods! I've been thinking it would be nice to have a compact bag to stuff in my purse for smaller purchases.
☮Sweat Absorbing Underarm Pads, around $2. I've left the BEST for last. Products like this usually retail in drugstores for at least triple times this amount. For those who have excessive perspiration, this product is very useful!
That's all for now.
