Haul: Recent Purchases #8

I recently bought some cosmetic products and I thought I would share them with you. It is mostly skincare and there is not one make-up product, which is a shock to me! I haven’t really bought any make-up recently; I am almost getting withdrawals (joke), but my bank account isn’t mad with me!

From FeelUnique.com, I purchased the L’Oréal Paris Revitalift Laser Renew Super Serum for £24.99, Garnier Moisture Bomb Super-Hydrating 3 in 1 Moisturiser SPF10 for £7.99, Garnier Moisture Bomb Super-Recharging Gel-Cream Night for £7.99 and because there was a 3 for 2 offer on Garnier products, I also got a Garnier Moisture Bomb Deep Sea Water & Hyaluronic Acid Night-Time Eye Tissue Mask for FREE (RRP £2.99). I also received a FREE perfume sample as I spent over a certain amount of money on my order. I just wanted to test out some new skincare and try a new serum. I currently use Charlotte Tilbury Charlotte’s Magic Serum Crystal Elixir and I have almost finished it. I’m not really sure it did anything special to my skin and it is extremely expensive and can’t justify re-purchasing it at this moment in time.

From LookFantastic.com, I got a L’Oréal Paris Colorista Permanent Gel Hair Dye in Copper for £5.99 and an Estée Lauder Pure Color Envy Nighttime Rescue Lip Oil-Serum for £25.00. I have been dyeing my hair an auburn/ginger colour for a while now and I still haven’t found the perfect shade, so I saw that the L’Oréal one was quite bright and thought I would give it ago. I wanted to try the lip oil to see if it would do anything special. I am currently using the Charlotte Tilbury Charlotte’s Magic Lip Oil Crystal Elixir and it doesn’t really do anything different to a regular lip balm.

From AllBeauty.com, I bought Skin Doctors Hair No More Inhibitor Spray for £9.95 (RRP £10.99) and another bottle of the Christina Aguilera Eau De Parfum in 30ml for £10.95 (RRP £20.00). I used up my last bottle of this perfume many years ago and decided on a whim to buy it again. I was just interested in trying the no more hair spray to see if it will actually work in any way, shape or form.

From BeautyBay.com, I purchased two ZOEVA 238 Precise Shader Brushes for £10.00 each and NUTHING Shimmer Hair Removal Wax in Blue (Passionfruit & Blueberry) for £12.95. I already own a couple of the brushes, but wanted more of them and I just wanted to try the wax.

I can’t wait to start using the items I have purchased, although I didn't realise the serum was targeted for people aged forty plus (I'm only in my mid twenties!). There are some new make-up products being released soon. I am very interested in getting the Natasha Denona Bronze Palette, if I do decide to get the palette I will post a review.

Katie Price 'Stunning' Perfume VS JoJo Siwa 'Be You' Perfume - Are they the same?

I was browsing on AllBeauty.com and looking at celebrity fragrances and I saw that one was listed for JoJo Siwa. I had heard of JoJo before, but I don’t really know anything about her. I clicked on it out of interest and when I first saw the image of the perfume, I thought maybe the wrong photograph had been uploaded until I clicked on it and saw the description of the perfume. When I first saw the photograph, before I clicked on it to read the description, I instantly thought, that’s Stunning by Katie Price! I looked into it a bit more and compared it to Stunning. The JoJo Siwa “version” is called Be You. Photo Source: Perfume.com Stunning by Katie Price · Released in 2007 (12 years ago). · Contains the notes; Mandarin Orange, Jasmine & Patchouli. · Classed as a floral scent. · Marketed as an adult’s fragrance. · Diamonds by Next is a confirmed dupe of this perfume, but the bottle is completely different. You w

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

Urban Decay Super Saturated High-Gloss Lip Color

I received this product as part of the Oz: The Great and Powerful Theodora Palette, which also includes eyeliner. I am going to review the product as a whole, even though I only have it in the one shade. This product is a jumbo/chubby lip pencil with a black plastic lid. It is just like the Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliners, but bigger. Each barrel of each pencil is a different colour, to clearly show the colour of each shade. Theodora is a bright, creamy, glossy cherry red shade and is Limited Edition, but it is part of the regular line and is instead called F-Bomb . You get 2.8g of product and it is full size. You also have to sharpen it to dispense more product. The formula is smooth, creamy, glossy and slightly tacky, but not sticky. This product is supposed to give your lips an opaque, saturated and pigment rich colour with a glossy finish. It is also mean’t to be quite creamy so that it glides onto your lips. The product is also said to contain plant derived ingredients, whi
