Mac Haul

Hey everyone! Today I want to share with you a small Mac haul. I've been wanting a few products for a while now and I finally went out and got them!

Custom Eyeshadow Quad - £46.50

Top left to right: Nylon, All That Glitters

Bottom left to right: Satin Taupe, Brun

The first thing on my wishlist was a Mac eyeshadow quad with 4 of my top wanted eyeshadows. I got Nylon which is a pale gold with icy shimmer that is perfect for the tear duct, inner corner and brow bone. All That Glitters is a gorgeous beige with gold pearl which looks great all over the lid alone and with other eyeshadows - I think everyone just needs this colour in their collection! Satin Taupe is a taupe with silver shimmer which is great for the outer corner and in the crease. Brun is a muted blackish brown which is perfect for my eyebrows and in the crease.

Vintage Selection Paint Pot - £14.50

Vintage Selection is one of the Mac Pro Longwear Paint Pots which is a frosted dirty peach. It is pretty similar to Benefit's RSVP and it is nicely pigmented. This colour looks amazing alone, so great when in a rush as it just completes the look and pulls it all together. 

217 Blending Brush - £17

I've been needing a blending brush for a while now and since getting this brush my eyeshadow looks so much better! I'm amazing how much a difference one brush can make.

219 Pencil Brush - £19 

I also picked up the pencil brush which I find is great for applying highlighter to the inner corner and tear duct. It can also be used in the crease however it can leave a strong line which is hard to blend out so I prefer to use a slightly larger brush in the crease.

Matchmaster Foundation Sample - £25 for 35ml

The lady was really kind and gave me a sample of their Matchmaster foundation in the shade 1 which so far I really like and it gives a soft natural-matte finish and has good coverage.

February Makeup Haul

Hey Everyone! During February I went to Finland and Estonia and I picked up a few beauty products at Duty Free and department stores.

Here's some close ups of all the products that I have bought:

Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealer Kit - £24

Bobbi Brown Creamy Corrector - £18

I picked up the Bobbi Brown concealer and corrector in the shade Ivory and Porcelain Peach. I've been wanting to get these products for a while now but I haven't been able to justify the price, so as soon as I went to London Gatwick I couldn't resist the duty free prices!

BareMinerals Matte Foundation SPF 15 - £25

I also got the BareMinerals Matte powder foundation at duty free in the shade Fairly Medium. The BareMinerals lady wasn't at the counter so I asked the one at Clinique to help me and she thought I was Fairly Medium which I've never had any foundation in medium so it kind of worried me because I didn't want to look orange, but since it's a loose powder you wouldn't be able to tell anyway.

L'Oreal Paris GlamShine Stain Splash - £7.99

Left to right: 102 Romy, 101 Lolita

I passed the L'Oreal section and couldn't help but pick up two of the L'Oreal Paris GlamShine Stain Splash which are a perfect dupe for the YSL Glossy Stains. I got the colours 101 Lolita and 102 Romy. The best thing was that these were buy one get one free which was a total bargain!

Maybelline Instant Anti-Age Concealer - $7.99

When I saw that they had the Maybelline Instant Anti-Age Concealer I just had to get it because it hasn't been released in the UK yet and many people have raved about it.

Chanel Illusion D'Ombre Long Wear Luminous Eyeshadows - £24

From left to right: Apparence, Abstraction

 At the Estonian duty free I decided to pick up the Chanel Illusion D'Ombre Long Wear Luminous Eyeshadows in Apparence and Abstraction. 

Make Up Store Microshadow

From left to right: Savanna, Old Gold

 I noticed in both Finland and Estonia that Make Up Store is a popular brand so I thought I should try a couple of eyeshadows. I got the shades Savanna and Old Gold.

Smashbox Photo Finish Primer Light - £25

 On the ferry to Estonia from Finland I picked up the Smashbox Photo Finish Primer Light which I have been wanting to get for a while. The light formula is 60% water based so it's great for people with oily, acne prone or sensitive skin.

Lancome Star Bronzer Minéral Mat - £32.50

I also picked up this Lancome Star Bronzer Minéral Mat at duty free in shade 03. It has a gorgeous design on the bronzer and outer case and smells of the signature Lancome rose scent.
