Beauty Haul June 2015

Whoopsies! I've done it again brought more makeup that I probably did not need. However for all of the product below I spent under £20! I know you are all thinking how but if you read on I will tell you exactly how I managed to save so much money in big brands such as Eylure and Elizabeth Arden.

 

 

So as you can see above I have brought 2 pairs of false eyelashes, 2 blushes, a eyeshadow duo, a lip pencil/gloss/stick, and a cream eyeshadow. If you would like a full review of any of the products I have hauled just leave a comment of which one below and I will try to do that once I have a fuller impression of them.

 

So the first products I have are the Maybelline Colour Show Blush 'em! I have the more coral one of the right and the pink of on the left. I think I prefer the more coral one as I feel it will suit me better but the pink one was pretty aswell. So I spent just £2 on the pair of them! This is because I found them believe it or not in the pound shop in the famous brands section. If you are reading from a different country these are shops where all products are just £1.

 

 

Next I have the Maybelline Hypercosmos eyeshadow duo in WN-1. It's a pretty purple and gold. It's a good size product and I can't wait to start using it especially as I find Maybelline a good brand. I also found this in the pound shop and so for all the Maybelline products I spent only £3.

 

Next I went to TKMaxx which if you are in the US is TJMaxx. They each were £2.99. I wanted to pick these up as I wanted to try to wear false eyelashes especially as I have a few big events this month including a friends birthday as well as my own.

 

 

Next I think are my favourite products from the haul and are two things from the Elizabeth Arden Summer collection. The first is the Beautiful Color Gloss Stick in the shade 02 Pink sky and is deep sort of pink. When I swatched it it seemed very creamy and soft. The next product is a Pure Finish Cream Eyeshadow in the shade 01 Sand Dollar and as you can see below is a nice shinny light pink. As you can see I have already tried it and it is very creamy. The Gloss stick was £2.99 and the eyeshadow was £3.99 from TKMaxx.

 

 

So that is everything I got this haul. I know it was quite brief but like I said if you would like to see a full review just leave a comment in the comment section below. Also if you could suggest products that I might like or where I can buy more products for cheaper prices please do let me know. Hope you enjoyed this and I will see you on my next post.

L'Oréal lipstick review

So I have been admiring these lipsticks for for awhile now especially the collection exclusive/privee. Everytime I walked past them in Boots or Superdrug I picked it up and ummed and urred but didn't buy them until now. I brought mine from Superdrug on a 3 for 2 for £6.99 each but like I said I had looked and wanted them for ages so it wasn't just an impulse buy. I have recently really wanted to start wearing lipsticks and I felt if I got some good quality ones that didn't feel sticky it would make me want to wear them.

I got one collection exclusive by Eva in the shade Eva's nude, the second in is from collection privée by Julianne in the shade Julianne's nude and the third is a normal Color Riche in the shade 302 bois de rose. I chose this because they are quite muted tones and are very nutural. I love the each of the colours even though they are very similar. Underneath is a picture of the swatches I took of each lipstick
 

They are super creamy and smell quite nice and they really aren't sticky which is what I want in a lipstick. I found them to have long lasting ability and so am really looking forward to wearing them.

Personally I love the packaging I have to say I prefer the black packaging to the gold but I think they feel sturdy so could get knocked around in my handbag and still be fine. I like the fact there's a sort of clip on the lid so it doesn't fall off which means you can just throw it in your handbag when your leaving because who has time to make sure it's all ok in your bag before you leave. 

I would definitely recommended these however I feel it's better for those who aren't just beginning makeup because of the price and other things I feel that for a beginner a collection or a rimmel lipstick might be better.
