FeelUnique.com Haul #2

I was browsing the beauty tag on Instagram and came across a post about the e.l.f Earth & Ocean Palette. The majority of the comments on the post were very complimentary towards the palette. I decided to purchase it and see for myself. I also haven’t tried any e.l.f products for the longest time. I decided to purchase it off FeelUnique.com, so I could pick up some other items I wanted. It is easier to get it all from one place and I also used some gift vouchers I had towards the cost of my haul.

When my order arrived, the e.l.f palette was damaged and the delivery box looked like it had been through a lot (ripped, bent and beat up). Some of the eyeshadows were just smashed to smithereens! It was completely unusable and messy. FeelUnique sent me a replacement, which arrived better packaged and in perfect condition.
Obviously, the first item I put in my bag was the e.l.f Earth & Ocean Palette Earth & Ocean Palette (£14.00). I then decided to pick-up back-ups of my brow gel products. I got the Rimmel Wonder’Full 24Hour Brow Mascara in Light (£7.99) and the Rimmel Brow This Way Gel in Clear (£4.49). I have also been interested in trying the new Barry M Hi Vis eyeliners and I ended up purchasing all of the pencil ones! So, I got all six Barry M Hi Vis Bold Eyeliners in Caution, Dangerous, Glow Stick, False Alarm, Riot & Strobe Light (£3.99 each). I also wanted the Hi Vis cake eyeliner pots, but they were not available on the FU website at the time I made my purchase. The last item I purchased was the EYLURE Taking Shape Brow Stencils (£5.00). I have been tinting my eyebrows recently, so I thought it was time I tried to shape them myself. I haven’t been tweezing them either recently as I am not sure which shape to tweeze to and I thought the stencils might help. Lastly, I received two free perfume samples; MUGLER Angel Nova Eau de Parfum (1.2ml) and GIVENCHY Irresistible Eau de Parfum (1ml).

I will post reviews/swatches for the e.l.f palette and Barry M eyeliners very soon, once I’ve had chance to try them out (also Serial Sampler posts for the perfumes). I really now need to curb my spending. The only other product I am really allowing myself to purchase at the moment is the BPERFECT Cosmetics X Stacey Marie Carnival III: Love Tahiti Palette, when it is eventually stocked on BeautyBay.com (I like collecting TRIBE points).

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...

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...
