NYX Haul #1

I actually purchased and received these items a few weeks ago, but I wanted to wait to haul them. Plus three of the items are going to be given as Christmas gifts, so I didn’t want a certain someone to see what I have bought them before tomorrow. So let’s get started!

First off this group of items are from Love-Makeup.co.uk, but the other two items are from eBay.
From Love-Makeup.co.uk I bought five NYX products. They include The Runway Collection Eye Palette in Velvet Rope for £10. This palette has very pretty purple shades, and I intend to give this as a gift for Christmas. The items I bought for myself are two Slide On Pencils in Esmeralda and Pretty Violet for £6.50 each, and these are shades I cannot find in my nearest drugstores and they are the type of shades I want and need in my ‘make-up collection’. Lastly I bought two Jumbo Eyeshadow Pencils in Milk and Yogurt for £4.50 each and I have wanted Milk for ages and I saw Yogurt swatched and thought it looked pretty, so I thought I would try it out for myself.
From eBay.co.uk I bought two items, which I also intend to gift. They are Too Faced Shadow Insurance in Original, which I bought for £5.75 from wendas159 on eBay and Sleek Pout Polish in Monte Carlo for £5.30 from vanitypalace on eBay. I already own these two items myself and a certain someone uses mine all the time, so I thought I would buy them their very own (how nice am I? lol ;P).

Jouer Skinny Dip Palette

I first saw this palette when Jouer released their Skinny Dip make-up collection and I nearly bought it, but I changed my mind because I already have a million palettes. As you can see, I have changed my mind again and I am very glad that I did. The packaging is quite compact. It is made out of reflective foil gold cardboard and the typography is simple. It has a magnetic closing, which you lift to reveal a small rectangular mirror on one side and then the six eyeshadow pans on the other. The shade names are written underneath each pan. You get six ultra-foil shimmer eyeshadows in blinding shades with a net weight of 7.5g. The sixth shade is actually described as more of a glitter shade. STAR LIGHT - platinum BIKINI - champagne pink SKINNY DIP - champagne gold TAN LINES - antique bronze MAGIC HOUR - warm taupe MIDNIGHT SWIM - cocoa bronze The eyeshadows should be highly pigmented, have an intense shimmery and metallic finish, be long wearing and cre

KALEIDOS Space Age Highlighters

A few posts ago I mentioned that I purchased a Kaleidos Space Age Highlighter from Depop and I said I really wanted the whole collection (8 highlighters) and was considering purchasing the whole bundle. The bundle was and is still out of stock, so I caved in and went for the second best option. I ended up purchasing The Six Highlighter Bundle, where you choose six of the shades and you get their Precision Highlighter Brush, all for $76.00 (£60.70). With this option I would only be missing out on one shade. My order was shipped from China and took 10 days to get to me. The shipping was FREE as I spent over $70.00 and I wasn’t charged any customs fees. Inside the main package is the bright bundle box, it looks like a present/gift. When you open this up, the highlighters and brush are inside the metallic padded envelope. I already own the shade Ray Rider (N03) (champagne sheen with a peach hint).
