New Make Up Haul

Okay, so to be honest, the last seven days I have kinda splurged a bit on make up.. I can't help it, it's my guilty pleasure. Once I see a product I want it goes on my list and one by one I check them off! Also sending me into Debenhams beauty hall can be a dangerous mission for my poor bank card, oops!

So I thought I'd update you on what I got and some first impressions for the products I have used already!

1. Urban Decay x Gwen Stefani Blush Palette for £35 I think this is a great product. I wasn't sure at first but it's great for my day to day make up and the pinker shades are amazing for a night time look! There is a shade which could be used as contour and possibly 2 or 3 highlight and blush shades. I have to admit I love when a product has more than one use and this can contour, highlight and add blush to my face daily - perfect!

2. Mac Lip Pencil in Nightmoth. I got this to match my Ariana Grande x Mac Viva Glam Lipstick and it's a perfect colour. It's a great dark vampy red/purple. I wore at at the weekend and it lasted all night without needing to be topped up even though it's a very dark colour and I was drinking (all night)!

3. Make Up Forever Ultra HD Invisible Cover Stick Foundation. I haven't tried this yet but these look amazing. I also hear Nikkie Tutorials talking about them a lot so they must be GOOD. (She's my makeup guru)

4. Mac Lipstick in Diva (Matte). This is the most gorgeous blue toned red. I'm obsessed! I can't believe I never owned this sooner, it's my absolute favourite! I seen this on a friend and had to have it and  I wore it a few times recently and it's amazing. (It's a Mac Lipstick so my hopes are always high!)

5. Dolly Wink Liquid Eyeliner. This is made in Japan and really cute. I love everything about it - the packaging, the product and where it's made! It's also produced by Tsubasa Masiwaka a Japanese model.

6. EX1 Invisiwear Liquid Foundation. This foundation is so good. I would say it's medium to full coverage. It lasts well on my dry skin without moving or leaving me patchy after a while which is great and for the price I really cannot fault it!

7. Too Faced La Creme Color Drenched Lip Cream in Honey Bear. These lip sticks have the most gorgeous gold packaging and they are so hydrating which is perfect for this time of year! It would be a sheer lipstick which is also extremely pigmented, amazing. I want more of these and the melted lipsticks! Too Faced can do no wrong in my eyes.

So there's my little haul, I love all these products and I'm excited to use them all a few times! If there's anything else you think I should have picked up let me know!

TK Maxx Haul!

First off, let me say, my trips to TK Maxx are far and few between but I went with my family for a nosey today and ended up finding a few items that I kinda love! I guess, to be honest, for me in there is usually hit or miss but today it ended up being a good day!

Firstly I picked up this black longline bomber jacket which the patches.. I saw it and fell in love. It from a brand I've never actually heard of called Sweewë Paris. It's linked incase you wanna check it out! I got this for £15 today but I'm definitely sure it was worth a lot more after checking the brand out online!

I also picked up 3 Olivia Palermo x Ciaté London items which are on offer on the website but not as cheap as what I was able to pick them up for today! (Bargain!!!!)

The first is the lipstick in the shade Cashmere. I paid £5.99 for this today. The RRP was £19 and on the site today it is £13.30!

The second is the lipstick again in Praline which is slightly darker than Cashmere but so gorgeous I had to have the both! Today I paid £5.99 and the RRP was £19 but online today it is £13.30!

Here's the two colours swatched. Cashmere is on the bottom and Praline on the top! I think Praline will go perfectly with my Soar lip liner. (Flash used both times close then further away.)

The third item I picked up was the Smoked Out eye pencil in Fig. I paid £4.99 for this item today and the RRP is £15 and online it is reduced to £10.50! All in all, I think these were a great purchase and an absolute steal!

The final thing I picked up in TK Maxx today was a St. Tropez Powder Bronzer which I got for £5.99 on Look Fantastic the RRP is £20.45 and it's down to £16.36 online today!

I seriously got some absolute steals today and I couldn't be happier! I definitely think I will be checking TK Maxx out more often and if you're on a budget, a student or feeling January in the bank already I'd probably say checking out your nearest one is a must!!
