FeelUnique.com Haul #1

I went a little crazy last weekend and purchased quite a bit from FeelUnique! I buy stuff from there all of the time, but I don’t usually buy this much in one go. I accidentally made my first ever NARS purchase. It popped up on the homepage and I just clicked it. It is the NARS NARSISSIST Unfiltered 2 Cheek Palette . It has six shades of pink toned shades for your cheeks and I am very excited to test them out. Plus the packaging is so sleek! I got two Urban Decay Eyeshadows in Mildew and Maui Wowie . I picked up three products from NYX; NYX High Definition Eyeshadow Base and two NYX Slide On Pencils in Purple Blaze and Tropical Green . I also got The Vintage Cosmetic Company Slanted Tweezers in Rose Gold , because they are rose gold! Lastly, because I spent a certain amount of money I could get two free samples. I chose the Benefit they’re Real! Push-Up Liner and Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb Bloom EDT . I can’t wait to start using everything. Hopefully, nothing too ap

Serial Sampler #10

I recently received this sample with an online beauty order and I have heard of this product before. It was the packaging that caught my attention most. It is Fresh Couture by MOSCHINO and it is a 1ml spritzer sample of the eau de toilette. It contains a mixture notes such as; Bergamot, Raspberry, Peony, Ylang-Ylang, Ambroxan and Patchouli. It is quite a strong scent for an EDT, but it is really nice and not overpowering. It smells similar to a scent I have tested before, but I can’t quite put my finger on it. It doesn’t strike me as being your traditional female scent, so it is probably universal. I would class it as a deep musky floral scent. Overall, the bottle design is very original, sadly the scent is not. I definitely won’t be buying a full sized bottle as it doesn’t give me the WOW factor. I would recommend that you give it a sniff though! You can buy it in 30ml (£35), 50ml (£50) and 100ml (£65) and it is available at places such as; Superdrug, Debenhams an

Too Faced Love Flush Blush Wardrobe

I have had this blush palette for a long time now, but I have only recently started to use it. I know it was released last year and I believe it was limited edition, but you can still find it for sale on the Too Faced website. The packaging is long, thin and sleek. It is made out of thick cardboard and rectangular shaped. It has a pretty heart design on the front and product information printed on the back. It has a magnetic closing and when you lift the lid it reveals a small narrow mirror and the product pans. You get six 2.0g blushes in heart shaped pans. Each shade is also available in a full sized single heart shaped compact. LOVE HANGOVER - light pink coral BABY LOVE - medium rosy pink I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU - bright coral orange HOW DEEP IS YOUR LOVE? - medium pink coral JUSTIFY MY LOVE - bright bubblegum pink YOUR LOVE IS KING - medium rosy plum These blushes should be long wearing (16 hours+), fade-proof, smudge-proof and richly pigmented.

e.l.f Haul #9

I wanted to share with you what I recently purchased from e.l.f. I kind of wanted to buy a lot more, but the products just don’t excite me the way they used to. Perhaps because I bought so many in the past! I got a couple of products I actually wanted and then chose the others to try. Everything I purchased is from their Studio range. I got the Nude Rose Gold Palette , which has ten shades of rose gold toned/inspired colours. Flawless Finish Foundation in Natural , which I believe is the lightest shade. Shadow Lock Eyelid Primer in Sheer , which I have had twice before but I needed to pick up another tube as the one I had, dried out and I am working on a big eye primer review. Slant Tweezer which I have purchased many times before. And because I spent over £25.00 I got FREE shipping as well as a FREE pastel gift. The gift includes three products from the Studio range; Illuminating Palette , Smooth Matte Eyeshadow in Blushing Rose and Powder Brush . I bought the powder brush a

MAC Lipstick in Brave

I recently decided to purchase this lipstick as it looked similar to Syrup, which is a shade I already own and love. It is very similar but there is a slight difference as well as Syrup being in a lustre finish. NAME: Brave COLOUR: Pink-beige with white pearl FINISH: Satin PRICE: £16.50 AVAILABLE: Any MAC store or MACcosmetics.co.uk ♥ ♥ ♥

Perfume Power! - Christina Aguilera 'Touch Of Seduction'

This perfume was also on my test list on Fragrantica and I bought it at the same time as Christina Aguilera ‘Woman’. I got the 30ml bottle in the eau de parfum. The bottle is made of glass and is a sort of rounded hourglass shape. It has pink velvet rose design part way down the bottom of the bottle and Christina’s name is printed in hot pink and the perfume name is also printed in hot pink at the top of the bottle. It has rose gold banding around the neck for the cap to sit on. The cap is clear plastic and kind of diamond shaped. It has a rose gold spritzer to dispense the scent. On the outer cardboard box it had this description; “Stirs inner passion like the velvety petals of a rose bouquet”. The fragrance notes are:- Top Notes: Raspberry, Litchi & Freesia Middle Notes: Rose, Honeysuckle & Iris Base Notes: Musk, Vanilla & Sandalwood I like the bottle design, it is simple but pretty. It is a very light scent and the strongest note is definitely rose
