Firstly, my lack of posts for the last two months - I blame exams, personal life and a lifestyle that I just couldn't justify posting about! I'm back on it now though with a beauty haul mostly from Boots but with a few gems from CVS and Sephora that get me a tad excited.
Lets start with Boots...
1) Seventeen 'Define and Conquer Contour Kit' - The product I was probably the most excited about! Thanks to Kim K's hollowed cheekbones and lightened under-eye contour kits are the latest trend and this one isn't too bad at all. It does the job, although I find the highlighting shade a little too powdery.
2) Seventeen 'Supreme Shine Lipstick' in 'Day-glo' - You can tell there was two for one on Seventeen products! These are quite new to the brand and are brilliant for the price, I can apply it at the beginning of my shift and will only need to re-apply a couple of times throughout the day. A must-try.
3) Maybelline '24hr Color Tattoo' - Lorded greatly by beauty bloggers and You tubers everywhere, I couldn't believe I was yet to own one, so I bought three. These are like little pots of beauty heaven, so shiny, smooth and pigmented they make me salivate a little bit. Left to right the shades are: '24K Gold,' (incredible!) 'Metallic Pomegranate,'(dark and mysterious) and 'Pink Gold.'(think everything that's good about Naked 3 in one little pot).4) Soap and Glory 'Supercat' eyeliner - Lovely pen-style eyeliner for those on a budget, i've tried an Estee Lauder liner in a similar style that isn't as easy to use and black as the Supercat. Purrrrrfect for a cat eye!
5) Rimmel 'Exaggerate' lip liner in 'Addiction' - Nice, dark, pinky nude. I've even worn this all over the lip instead of as just a liner and I thought it gave quite a sultry look.
USA...
Unfortunately, it wasn't me who got to go make-up shopping in America (because, trust me, I would have been far less controlled), it was my mum who kindly picked me up a few things. I've not tried any of them out yet but I can't wait!
2) Wet n Wild 'Coverall' primer
3) Wet n Wild 'Walking on eggshells' Eye shadow trio
4) Wet n Wild 'Coverall' correcting palette
5) AND the icing on the cake: Kat Von D 'tattoo liner' which I am so excited to try that i'm saving it for a 'good make-up day' so I can do it justice!
Have you picked up any highstreet/drugstore gems recently? and what would you grab if you had free range of Sephora? (Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz is next on my list!)
