Make-Up Declutter 2020

Last month I decided to do another declutter of my cosmetics collection, the last one I did was in 2017. I managed to purge a lot more products, mainly palettes and some of the items kept surviving my previous declutters, but their luck finally ran out this time! Here is what I got rid of this time:-

That is a total of 3 nail products. The brands of products I got rid of are: - Nails Inc and Elegant Touch.

Overall, I managed to purge 200 items from my collection! I give away the products to family/friends and sell anything that is new or in good condition. If any items are gifted to me through PR, I would donate to family/friends or a charity that accepts cosmetics. I have previously tried blog sales, but they don’t work in my experience. I have now managed not to subscribe to a subscription box for about a year now, so it is likely to be another couple of years before I do a declutter again!

Boots.com Haul #2 + Blog Sale Purchase

I thought I would share a haul with you today. I haven’t done one for a while but I recently ordered a few items from Boots and I wanted to let you know about it. I bought the Real Techniques Brush Cleansing Palette , which includes two sample sachets of the deep cleansing gel. I have been waiting for something like this and I cannot wait to try it. I simply refuse to buy the Sigma version, plus I don’t think it needs to be that big. I also got a packet of the Oral-B Precision Clean Electric Toothbrush Heads because they were on offer and I got eight for the price of four. I got four tubes of the Soap & Glory Sugar Crush Hand Sanitiser because I absolutely love the scent and I wanted to put them in difference rooms so they are always to hand when needed. I bought a back-up of the Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation , which is my favourite foundation and I use the shade 010 Light Porcelain. Lastly, I got the Rimmel Brow This Way Styling Gel in Clear. It is the second tube I...

Farewell!

Hello everyone, As you can see from the title of this post, I have decided to quit blogging!. Blogging has been a part of my life for over 11 years and I have enjoyed it a lot and it has also been a form of therapy for me. But it’s now time to leave, my life has evolved so much this last year and a half and I am now looking forward to exploring new things. I have also closed my blog e-mail address, Twitter account and Bloglovin account. I will be leaving up all of my posts, but I have turned off new comments. Take care and thank you for all your support over the years. ♥ ♥ ♥

Dose of Colors Liquid Matte Lipsticks in Old Flame & Camp Fire

I decided to buy these and give them ago after hearing good things about them online, there is also a great shade selection. My current favourite lipsticks are the Jeffree Star Cosmetics Velour Liquid Lipsticks and I wanted to see how these DOC ones would compare. Old Flame - warm rusty orange Camp Fire - burnt sienna These creamy matte liquid lipsticks are mean’t to be rich in colour, long wearing and dry down to a velvety, comfortable and matte finish. You should exfoliate your lips prior to application and avoid consuming oily/greasy foods once applied. You can purchase them for £18.00 ($18.00) each from DoseofColors.com and BeautyBay.com. They are also cruelty-free and vegan. My First Impressions The packaging is like the Jeffree Star Cosmetics Velour Liquid Lipsticks and the actual formula of the DOC liquid lipsticks kind of reminds me of the JSC ones too. The formula is more of a cream rather than liquid, unlike the JSC’s ones. The formula comes out kind ...
