Saturday Shopping Spree

I obviously went out shopping again today. I wanted to buy a few items anyway, such as, a face primer, concealer, eyeliner and the Barry M Nail Paint I have been obsessing about for weeks.

From Superdrug I bought the Rimmel Fix & Perfect PRO Primer in 002, which is a white cream but there is no actual colour when on the skin. I had seen a video that recommended this primer so I had to go and check it out. It was a bit pricy for what it is, but I suppose it’s cheaper than most and is probably worth the money in the end. It was £6.99. I also picked up a Rimmel Match Perfection Skin Tone Adapting Concealer in 010 Ivory for £5.99. I also saw this in a video, so I’m hoping it lives up to expectations. I also wanted to get another Rimmel Special Eyes Precision Eyeliner Pencil in 161 Black Magic, as I love my brown one and I always meant to buy the black one. I got this eyeliner for FREE because there was a 3 for 2 offer which meant I paid for the primer and concealer and got the cheaper item for FREE, otherwise the eyeliner costs £2.99. The last item I bought from Superdrug was a Barry M Nail Paint in 302 Fuchsia, after weeks of wanting it, so finally I have it! I received 115 Superdrug Beautycard Points for the items I bought.
I always have a look in Boots if I go past so I looked at the Christmas gift sets and came across some new stocked Soap & Glory products, I never noticed that they sold this item before so I tested it and liked and purchased it. It was the Soap & Glory Mist You Madly Body Spray in 100ml for £3.11. There was a bigger size too that came in a box packaging for £6. something, but I wanted the smaller bottle just in case I bore of the scent. I earned 12 Boots Advantage Card Points for my purchase.

e.l.f Earth & Ocean Palette

I haven’t purchased anything from e.l.f in the longest time. I happened upon a post of this palette on Instagram and the complimentary comments really peaked my interest in trying it for myself. Palettes I have tried from e.l.f. in the past haven’t been the greatest of quality; I kind of associate the brand as being for children, beginners or natural beauty wearers. I was also interested in the Retro Paradise Palette , but I thought I would get more use out of this one at the moment.   THE PACKAGING The packaging is quite simple with a clear/black outlined plastic rectangular shape. The fronting is transparent so that you can see the eyeshadows from the outside of the palette. It has a clip closing, which you push apart to reveal the inside. The square eyeshadow pans are spread out across a black base and the shade names are printed in grey font under each pan. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get eighteen 0.94g eyeshadows in Matte (M), Metallic (ME), Glitter (G), Satin (S) and Shi...

KALEIDOS Futurism II: Cyber Bronze Palette

  I have seen these palettes before on YouTube, a few people I follow have featured them in palette collection videos. The colour stories always looked incredible, but I knew I probably wouldn’t get much use out of them as the colours are bright and you are limited to six shades. I had only really seen the Futurism III: Astro-Pink , Futurism I: Sci-Fi Green , Futurism IV: VR Neon and Futurism V: Electro-Turquoise ones before. When I made my first Kaleidos order, I didn’t bother looking at the palettes as I knew I wanted the highlighters and it was going to be pricey as it was. I was browsing through Depop on the day my order arrived and came across the Futurism II: Cyber Bronze Palette . I think the seller must have received her order the same day as me. I instantly fell in love with the colour story, but I pondered over whether to purchase it or not. At 3am the next morning (insomnia), I bit the bullet and made my purchase. It was brand new and untouched, I just couldn’t! THE P...

Violet Voss X Laura Lee Palette

After being blown away by the Holy Grail Palette, I just couldn’t pass on this one! The shade selection doesn’t appeal to me as much, but I know the quality will be there. Also, this palette is limited edition so I wouldn’t recommend hesitating if you are interested in it. I believe this palette is a collaboration with a YouTuber called Laura Lee. I don’t know anything about Laura, but from what I gather she makes beauty videos. The palette design is similar to the Holy Grail Palette but the colour scheme is different, but it still has the holographic effect on the packaging. It has a rectangular shape to it and it is slightly bulky and has a little weight to it. It has a magnetic closing and when you lift the lid it reveals the eyeshadow pans and a mirror. The packaging colour scheme is black and silver. You get twenty 36g eyeshadows in a variety of shades and finishes.
