If you follow me on twitter I mentioned yesterday that I had bought a few bits to help cheer me up. First of all I used my £5 No 7 / Ruby & Millie voucher tp buy an automatic perfect lip pencil in 20 Nude which as a result only cost me £1.75 :)
I didn't desperately need it but ho hum - it will come in handy and it was the only thing I liked - my nearest Boots No7 counter was a disgrace half the testers were missing and there was hardly any stock - I liked a few lipsticks but surprise, surprise they didn't have any!
Anyways I also went to a shop I think I have mentioned before called The Factory Bargain Shop - they had a whole load of discount YSL make up in including some Rouge Voluptes but only in really dark or bright colours no good for me :(
What they did have though was a whole load of CK Calvin Klein cosmetics all at discount prices - I picked up a full delicious sheer plumping lipgloss in 205 Enchantment - a gorgeous milky pink with a little bit of a sparkle for only £5 - so pretty
I also bought a few magazines yesterday including this months Glamour which came with a free Nails Inc Nail Varnish - you have a choice of 4 I think and I chose Shoreditch a lovely pink shade which "I don't think I have" lol
This week also saw the launch of the new MAC holiday collection in the UK I didn't buy anything instead I gave my mum a list so she could choose herself what to buy me. Anyways understandably I was a bit down so my mum gave me something she had bought for me - MAC Mineralize Eyeshadow Duo in Devil-May-Care
A gorgeous lilac colour which I absolutely love and quite a chunky silver glitter shade which unfortunately equals poor payoff and loads of fallout
Never mind it's still worth it for the gorgeous lilac which goes perfectly with China Glaze and Avalanche :)
Don't forget to check my monthly spends section in my sidebar - less than a week in and I am over half way down argh!!! less than £15 to go for the rest of the month...
The eyeshadow looks amazing hun, gorgeous colour!

That eyeshadow looks amazing! The mineralize ones scare me cos they look glittery and i worry I won't be able to wear them cos they be scratchy......damn sensitive eyes
ReplyDeleteAlso loving that CK gloss, beautiful colour

ReplyDeleteI forgot to say, I got a nails inc polish in glamour as well, think mines the reddy one? victoria and albert, which I think I haven't got lol.
I want the dark one whatever it is, looks gorgeous!!
PS I also use that no7 nude lipliner, I find it very similar to MAC sublime culture as welll
yeah - hey Layna - pleased you managed to get graphite it will save me having to swatch it for you :p - that is the problem with the mineralize shadows unfortuntaley the lilac is ok but the silver is a bit gritty :(
ReplyDeleteI've nominated you for an award x
ReplyDeleteYeah thats mainly what puts me off the mineralize ones and my eyes don't like the lustre ones either :(
ReplyDeleteHave fun playing with your goodies. Will you do us a nice easy smokey eye and nude lips tut plllllllllllllleeeeeeeeeeeease? I'm crap at it hehe
xla
Hey Layna
ReplyDeleteSmokey eyes aren't my best look to be honest with you
I just cover my whole lid with a mid tone shade and push the darker one into the crease really simple
check out dressjunkie29 ' s you tube channel she has just done a fabulous gentle smokey eyes which looks really wearable :)
Thanks for the youtube rec hun, I'll have a look x
