MAC Haul #5

I recently made another MAC purchase and I thought I would share with you what I bought this time. There are still a few other items I am interested in buying, but they will have to wait for the time being.
I decided I wanted my own MAC palette after all, so I purchased the Pro Palette Large Duo Compact which will hold thirty MAC eyeshadows if you use the inserts and probably will hold a lot more without the inserts. I also got one of the Pro Palette Eyeshadow/Concealer x 15 Inserts to hold my new eyeshadows, it is a good job too because the actual palette isn’t magnetic, which is a shame. The eyeshadow pans do come with magnets attached to them, but you would have to fix a magnet to any other eyeshadow you want to store in the palette. I bought four Eyeshadows in Honey Lust, Star Violet, Sketch and Cranberry. I was going to buy Haux and Quarry too, but I decided to wait until next time because I forgot to order a fluidline I wanted with this order anyway. Lastly, I purchased a Pigment in Golden Olive. I have thought about buying a pigment for years, but I find loose eyeshadows very messy to use. This shade happened to be on sale and the swatches online looked beautiful. I am a sucker for a pretty green eyeshadow! I was also sent another free sample of the In Extreme Dimension 3D Black Lash Mascara.

I will be making another MAC purchase very soon, but I probably won’t haul it because it will most likely just be two eyeshadows and a fluidline. My next post will be a palette review, which I mean’t to post last year but didn’t for some reason. I also have a lot more palette reviews coming soon as I have been naughty!

My Eye Primers: The Verdict!

It has taken me a long time to put this altogether, but I have finally done it! I decided I wanted to share my thoughts on eye primers I had tried and it turned out that I had ten, so I thought I would test them and find out which one worked best for me. I have split them into two categories (High End/Low End) and I aim to rank them from #1 to #10 on which is the longest wearing. Let’s look at the primers I will be testing. HIGH END URBAN DECAY PRIMER POTION PRICE: £17.50 SIZE: 10ml SHADES: Original, Anti-ageing, Freebase, Eden, Fix, Minor Sin, Sin and Caffeine APPLICATION: Squeeze tube without a nozzle, but also has a sponge stick applicator PROMISES: Non-creasing, gives you vibrant eyeshadows WHERE TO BUY: UrbanDecay.co.uk (UK) & Sephora (USA) I like to think that this primer is my favourite as I love the packaging (purple is my favourite colour). It is potion bottle inspired and it is the first primer I remember ever seeing and wanting. The packa...

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...
