e.l.f Haul #8

As you may or may not know, e.l.f stopped stocking their products in the UK some time ago and their website had a big sell off and closed down. But, it didn’t last long and I found out that you could order again via their website. I didn’t go crazy because there wasn’t really anything new and I don’t really have the excitement about the brand anymore. I bought a couple of necessities and a new product for me to finally try.

I decided to get a Large Makeup Holder, so I could decorate it and use it to store my make-up brushes. I am thinking of spray painting it brown. I also got a back-up Blending Eye Brush. This is my favourite e.l.f brush and is perfect for applying colour to your crease. I got two more pairs of Slant Tweezers and lastly I decided I wanted to try the 3-in-1 Mascara because I have heard good things about it and before e.l.f stopped stocking in the UK, I would go to buy it but it was always sold out and then they didn’t stock it anymore for some unknown reason!

I’m glad I will finally get the chance to try the mascara and I am excited to DIY my make-up holder. I also have a little warning about purchasing from the e.l.f UK website. They are selling to the UK, but are actually shipping from the USA. I didn’t realise until after I made my order. The shipping cost is surprisingly still £2.95 or free if you spend more than £25.00 and you shouldn’t get charged custom fees (I didn’t anyway). The only downside is that it will take a little longer for your order to arrive, but I can live with that seeing as though the shipping fees are cheap, also considering it is flying from the USA.

Any suggestions for other products to try?

Perfume Power! - Next 'Paradise'

I first smelt this perfume after receiving it in a mini gift set about ten years ago and I have loved it ever since. This 100ml size is my first bottle of it though, other than the tester/sample size. The bottle is quite tall and it is a sort of clutch bag shape if you turn it on its side. The bottle is a simple design and you can easily see how much perfume you have. On mine the spray pump sometimes gets stuck in the band around the neck of the bottle, but the problem is easily solved. I can’t find a specific note list anywhere for this perfume, but on Next’s site it is described as, "a light fruity fragrance with white florals and green notes". To me it smells really fruity and fresh. It is also multifunctional because it is quite strong and sexy, so perfect for a night out, but it is also not too overpowering and smells fresh and fruity enough for day time wear. It is actually an eau de toilette, which means that it is less concentrated, but I find that it is st...

TAG - The Good, The Bad, The British

Photo: EnchantedIvyGifts.co.uk I was browsing my subscription videos on YouTube and I saw that EssieButton uploaded a new TAG video called The British Tag, and after watching it I decided I wanted to do the TAG too. I believe this TAG was created by BeautyCrush , so all credit is awarded to her. 1. How many cups of tea do you have a day & how do you take it? I drink around three cups of tea a day and I take mine with one small sugar and a bit of semi-skimmed milk. Tea is also the only hot drink I like. 2. What is your favourite part of a Sunday roast? My favourite part of a roast is the vegetables. I love kale & leak and broccoli! My Mum’s gravy is also to die for. 3. What is your favourite dunking biscuit? I don’t dunk biscuits anymore, but when I was younger I loved dunking Bourbons. If I was to dunk a biscuit now, I would probably choose either a Rich Tea or plain Digestive. 4. What is your quintessential British pastime? I love visiting ruins/m...
