Look Fantastic Haul #1


Hello, I am going to share with you some nail polishes I bought from LookFantastic.com. I received them yesterday and they are my new obsession, ESSIE.

I mainly look for the mini four piece polish collections from Essie, because they are not very expensive and they are small, which is good for me because I tend to love colours when I buy them and then go off them when I buy another, this way I have more chance of using one up and trying many different shades.

I got the Summer 2011 Collection for £11.85, which consists of four shades called, Braziliant, Smooth Sailing, Super Bossa Nova and Meet Me At Sunset. I know this collection is quite old, but the colours appealed to me, plus other collections from last year had really light colours and I am more into pastel bright colours. My favourite colour from this collection is Braziliant. I also bought a full size of Olé Caliente for £5.95, which is quite inexpensive for an Essie polish in the UK. I actually got this shade in another mini collection I bought not so long ago, but I fell in love with it and had to buy it in full size, especially for that price. Lastly I received a free sample of Caudalie Vinexpert Anti-Ageing Serum (1.5ml) for eyes and lips, and I gave this away to a family member, as it has no relevance to me.

I know this was short, but hopefully sweet, BYE! ;)

Glossybox #25 - February 2019

This is my third Glossybox since I re-subscribed last year. It is also the Valentine’s Day themed box. I would say that so far, this box seems to be the one most tailored to my usual interests. I received seven products in this box, technically six because two go hand in hand. HUDA BEAUTY Lip Contour in Venus This lip pencil formula is supposed to be waterproof and transfer-free. It should glide on effortlessly and give your lips an intense shot of colour. You can use it to contour or colour your lips or pair it with a lipstick. Venus is a warm beige nude shade. It glides onto your lips very easy, but it feels a little tacky when you fill your whole lips in with it. I’m not sure how often I would use this seeing as though I have never used lip liner. I prefer liquid lipsticks and I don’t feel the need to line my lips before applying it. | 1.20g - £16.00 | NAILS INC Nail Varnish in Status Ready This nail polish should be long lasting and super glossy. It is a deep che

Jeffree Star Cosmetics Jawbreaker Palette

I bought this palette back when it first launched (summer 2019) and I was interested in it so I could experiment more with bright colours. The colour selection definitely doesn’t disappoint and I was expecting it to be the same quality as the Blood Sugar Palette, if not slightly better! The packaging is quite a large rectangular shape and made out of metallic pink cardboard with colourful dots/dashes all over representing a jawbreaker pattern. The name of the palette is in a slightly raised font. It has a magnetic closing which you lift to reveal the twenty-four eyeshadow pans arranged on a white background. The other side is the same pattern as the front cover with a mirror. You can purchase it for £54.00 ($58.00) from JeffreeStarCosmetics.com and BeautyBay.com. You get twenty-four 1.50g eyeshadows in Matte (M), Shimmer (S) and Metallic (ME) finishes.

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 Shimmer
