Haul Mac, Illamasqua, eBay...

I hope you are having a good week so far? 

I did a few what I call "mini hauls" which are from one shop where I only bought a few things at the start of summer. I didn't have much time the past few months and my posting was few and far between and posts like these helped me to post something without taking too much time :) 

Today I have another mini haul but with a few shops I bought from. 
I love Haul posts and usually end up with a shopping list by the end of reading/watching a few :)

I won't go into detail on here because I plan to review a few of the items soon.

My first picture is my order from Illamasqua 


I chose two cream blushes, pink raindrops and aurora gleam. I have high hopes for these beauties! 

Superdrug


Rimmel Salon Pro x 2 and Kate x1
Plus revlon Nail art duos. 

eBay

This Multi-colour skull bracelet was only 99p with free delivery!! 

eBay

99p - cheap and very cute! 

Bank

£10 in the sale - this is a loose fit long vest and I wish I got the size down because it really is loose fit. The peace sign is two tone and looks gorgeous when the light hits it. 


Bank skull prong socks £3 I think. Love these! 

Next
Makeup Bag £7. I bought this to keep all of my samples sachets in. 

Ebay

I bought these from ebay too. Sadly one was missing the drop crystal. They were 99p and the seller refunded me. I plan to remove the drop crystal from the other and wear them like that rather than bin them. 

Mac

NW20 Studio Fix Fluid and a Small Fix + Fluid. Sadly the foundation wasn't like it was when I used to use it a couple of years ago so I ended up selling it. 

That's my lot for today :) I'm off to do some decorating now, boo!!  Have a great day.

Loreal Top Coat Confettis

Hi Lovelies

I hope you are all well?
I have been so busy the last few days but can honestly say I don't know why, I don't feel like I did much,  and this weather is crazy!

It is starting to become a regular thing of reading Gemma (Makeup Magpies) blog and coming away with a shopping list! When I'm out, I shop with my eyes and very rarely think about it or read reviews first. So if I'm in the shop and the pretty packaging calls me over, I know it's already mine!
This is the same with Gemma's blog, I know before I read all of the post (her pictures say it all) if I'm going to buy the item. I read the post for all the details and where to get my hands on it and for her opinions and tips, because I know that if Gemma likes it, it must be good. I trust her opinion and feel good about buying an item because I know I won't be disappointed.

The latest product I bought after seeing Gemma's Post is the Loreal Top Coat Confettis. Amazing!!
 
 
 
Top Coat confettis over Color Riche 207 babydoll
 
 
 
Top coat Confettis over Color Riche 602 Perle De Jade
 


I am so pleased I bought this and I used it straight away with Two Colours(a bit over excited to see how it looked). It is a similar idea to the Illamasqua Speckled Polish but is so much better because you can have any colour you want with it. Illamasqua have four colours with the Speckled glitter mixed in. This is just a Top Coat so can be used over any Nail Colour. The other great thing is its so much cheaper because it is a drug store brand. I paid £4.99 for The Loreal and the Illamasqua Fragile cost me £14. Don't get me wrong the Illamasqua was worth every penny and I LOVE it. It's just better to have more choice colour wise and get a bargain :)
 
Have you tried this Top Coat yet?

Illamasqua Speckled Nail Polish in Fragile

Hi Lovelies

TGIF!!
I was very busy yesterday trying to get everything ready for a Baby Shower I am throwing this evening-including making the cake! All I need to do is load everything in the car this evening, travel 20 miles, set up and relax :)
I hope you all have a fun weekend!

Illamasqua recently launched their Im'perfection Range featuring Speckled Eyeliner's and Polish, Green(Shoot) Lipgloss and Blusher Duos . The range is all about being comfortable in your own skin, to be proud of your freckles and imperfections. Not only that but it also encourages you to try something different... a Green Lipgloss maybe? Now for most people a Green Lip sounds ridiculous and they wouldn't give it a second thought, but not me! I was a little curious and tempted to try it, I had to talk myself out of buying it because obviously I'm never going to wear it, fighting with myself that It would be stupid to buy it just to try and take a few pictures, right? My sensible side won and I didn't add it to my basket....for now!!
Anyway, one thing I didn't have a problem adding to my basket was this beauty - The Speckled Nail Polish In Fragile. I have needed this in my life since I first saw it in a review by Vivianna.

It's a lovely Blue with two different sized Grey Glitter pieces that give the Speckled effect.
You need two coats to get a good even colour with a decent amount of 'Speckle', The application was fairly easy, It Is a bit gloppy but I found that made it easier to move the glitter around without streaking the application. It dried in a couple of minutes and so far no chips (day 2).
I Love, Love, Love this Polish! I cannot stop staring at it(whilst dreaming of cadburys mini eggs!).
I will definitely be buying another colour or two from the collection :)
 
(I made a bit of a mess on my cuticles and this was taken before I tidied them up)
 

Have you tried the Speckled Polishes yet?
