News: Where to buy Sleek, Bourjois, Sigma brushes etc in Malaysia

Hi dolls!

It's always frustrated me that some beauty brands are not available in Malaysia. Especially famous brands like Sleek, Bourjois, Sigma, and maybe even Rimmel (it seems to be dying out back home). And the title of my post is probably not the best-worded but I could not think of how else to describe it. Anyway, I hated the thought of my fellow Malaysians (and anyone else who does not have these brands in their country, too!) missing out on being able to purchase some of these brands so I thought I'd just write a short post about where these brands can be purchased online.

The first website where you can find some of these brands is on a website called Luxola. 

Luxola has brands like Kai, Balance Me, Models Own, Sigma Brushes, Sleek MakeUp and ZPalette. They also offer discounts here and there which definitely helps. I recently purchased the Sigma Mr Bunny Travel Kit from Luxola and had it shipped to Malaysia (it does not ship to the UK)- can't wait for when I go home to use it! It was priced at RM240 (approx. £48) but at that time, there was a 35% discount offer going on at Luxola so I snagged the Mr Bunny set for RM156 (approx. £31.2)! They do have offers running here and there so do keep a lookout for that.

Here's a snapshot of the Luxola Sleek MakeUp page:-

I was surprised to see the Blush by 3 palettes being sold for only RM44- that's cheaper than what I paid for here in the UK! If there are discounts going on, then it would be even cheaper. 

Luxola ships to Malaysia, Brunei, Hong Kong, Singapore, Indonesia, Phillipines, Thailand and the United Arab Emirates. For more information, check out their site at http://www.luxola.com/my.

The next site I have to share with you is Asos.

Asos has many beauty brands that cannot be found in Malaysia, such as Illamasqua, Barry M, Bourjois, and certain products from Rimmel, among other brands.

They have Rimmel products such as the Rimmel Kate Moss Matte Lipstick, Rimmel Scandaleyes Waterproof Kohl Liner, and Rimmel Apocalips Lip Lacquer. 

Here's a snapshot of the Bourjois page on Asos:-

Asos ships to many countries worldwide and they offer free international delivery! For more information, check out http://www.asos.com/.

So that's pretty much the end of my post. Hee! I'm actually typing this really quickly because I need to get back to hitting the books (my first exam is on 3 January 2014!), but I hope you have found this helpful somewhat! We do not have to fret so much now about not being able to get access to certain brands! =D

UPDATE (1.6.2014) - For those in Malaysia, you can now find a Bourjois kiosk in Sunway Pyramid Shopping Centre LG1, Lot 1.65A (I can't tell you how excited I am that Bourjois is finally in Malaysia - love the brand!)! If you live near Sunway Pyramid, do check it out!

UPDATE 2 (16.10.2014) - Asos does NOT do free worldwide shipping anymore. You can check out what the rates are here. If you live in Malaysia, it is free for orders over £15 (approx. RM80), otherwise the shipping fee is £3 (approx. RM20).

Have you shopped on any of these websites before? How did you find it/them? =)
