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).

Charlotte Tilbury Charlotte Darling Easy Eye Palette

I have another Charlotte Tilbury palette post for you today; I have been on a roll with them! You can definitely tell I am a fan of her eyeshadow formula. There are loads of other CT products I would love to try, but I am slowing down the purchases for now as I do have a confession to make at the end of this post! THE PACKAGING The packaging is made of shiny maroon plastic and it has a short, thin and rectangular shape. It has a metallic gold starburst design across the front. It has a magnetic closing, which you lift up to reveal the rectangular eyeshadow pans arranged in threes across a mirrored gold base. The group names are printed on the back of the palette. The shades don’t really have names, but there is a removable plastic insert included which labels the eyeshadows as 1 Prime, 2 Enhance or 3 Smoke. There is also a mirror on the underside of the lid. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get six 0.9g eyeshadows in Matte (M) and Metallic (ME) finishes.   ·    ...

Charlotte Tilbury Bejewelled Eyes To Hypnotise Instant Eye Palette

I originally wanted to purchase this palette last year as I already had the Charlotte Tilbury Stars-In-Your-Eyes Palette, which is the same concept as this one but had a more neutral and bright sultry colour story. I actually ended up decluttering that palette, so I decided not to purchase this one just in case I ended up doing the same thing. A few days ago I was watching one of Angelika Oles videos on YouTube and she mentioned this palette and did a tutorial using it. I instantly changed my mind and set about purchasing the palette. It is limited edition and I believe it was released back in September 2020 so it was hard to find, I also didn’t really want to pay full price for it. I did a search on Depop and came across a reputable seller who was selling one brand new in packaging, so I snapped it up and here it is! THE PACKAGING The packaging is made of glittery silver plastic and it has a long, thin and rectangular shape. It has a silver starburst design across the front. I believe...

GUCCI Mini Perfume Gift Set

Today I am going to review a perfume gift set that I bought from Boots.com during their Boxing Day sales 2014. It is the GUCCI Miniatures Gift Set and it was exclusively sold in Boots stores and on Boots.com. I love the concept of mini perfume sets and it’s a shame that not more brands do them! You get to sample more scents from brands, and if there is a certain perfume you are interested in, you would be able to sample it before potentially wasting your money buying a full size bottle of a scent you might not like. In this particular set you get five (5ml) mini fragrances to sample and I actually already bought a full size of the Guilty scent, but waited until I got this set to test it! A big gamble I know, but it did pay off this time! Here are the five miniature bottles of scents included:- FLORA BY GUCCI The bottle is so cute and with a little ribbon bow too. The notes contained in this little bottle are; citrus, peony, mandarin, osmanthus, rose, sandalwood, patchouli and ...
