My Semi-Pro Make-up Traincase

Everyone knows I am serious with make-up and I am serious in make-up learning. My birthday train case is my personal train case and I want something bigger as my make-up collection is growing as well. I don't want to break the bank, so I did my research and finally saw THE ONE :D



It is quite difficult to buy a train case especially through multiply because you can't see and touch the product, and for this case...I want to see and I want to touch the product before buying. I am glad I've found a good supplier who was nice enough to show me the train case without the pressure of buying. I met up with her at St. Luke's Hospital (hahaha what a nice place to meet huh?) Well she's an in-house doctor and she is into make-up! hehehe Anyways, I met up with her and I fell in love with the case and bought it on spot!

Here's how the insides look like :D




I will give her contact details tru email if needed. I bought this for Php 1,650 ($37.50 approx)

With regards to taking care of your traincase and how to make sure it remains clean, I'll give a separate post on it and you'll be surprise the things I do for stuffs I love! hahaha

Enjoy!

Your askmewhats,
Nikki

  1. That's a great train case. My one pulls out from one side, which is a pain 'cause everytime I pull the stairs out to the full, the whole case tips over! :(

    Are you able to fit everything you have in there?

  2. oh, mine as well! the first one i had from my birthday? It tips over, you know what i did? the other side that tips, that's where i put my make-up brushes (the glass holder?) it prevented the whole traincase from tipping over.

    So far, it fits but it's getting a bit crowded hahaha, I have another bag for the brushes and other bigger products like the body powder, etc.. :D But i love it still! hahha

  4. ohhh tine, I know how you feel! Though I have a make-up traincase now, I'm still looking around the department stores or make up shops and ask for the price! It is indeed super expensive! Like 10x more!!!! I think maybe there are a couple of cheap ones but you have to look for the suppliers. Goodluck hunting! :D

  17. Hi girls! the lady who sold it to me doesn't sold them anymore, but you can buy them at Beauty Touch Enterprises at Stall S-26 2nd floor & T7, 3rd floor Manila City Plaza Carriedo Street, Quiapo Manila. Tel no: 7334521. I'm not sure about the price but this is the place where I bought my huge traincase and their prices are affordable. Call them first to check if they have stocks before visiting them :)

(Beauty Touch Enterprises at Stall S-26 2nd floor & T7, 3rd floor Manila City Plaza Carriedo Street, Quiapo Manila) - I know the last message from this blog is almost 2 years ago. Just need an update. Thank you so much!
