Sneaky Christmas Present Treat's


So today I received a parcel in the post which was a surprise because I was not expecting anything. So I had a look inside and There was three Ben Nye powders and a Z palette, that's when I realised the parcel was not addressed to me but to my mum, opps.
So I then snapped a couple of pictures, I love how my Mum knows me so well.




I have being wanting to try Ben Nye powders for so long, and I  need to depot so many of my eyeshadow's there just hanging around everywhere as my bedroom consistently looks like a bombs hit it because my whole house is getting redone and obviously my room would be getting done last.

So I had to wrap them back up and tape the box back up, which I did not do a great job of let's hope my mum doesn't notice though!

I'm exited for Christmas now to see what over surprises I have to come.

Have you ever tried Ben Nye powders or the Z palette?
What are your thoughts on them?

Primark Makeup....


So I recently went into Primark just to have a look around and I came across some Make up they had for sale. I thought I may aswell give it a try as it was so cheap what is the worst that could happen. So I bought to gift box eyeshadow type of things, which were £2 each even if they where rubbish it's only £2. I also bought a lipstick which was a £1 so in total I only spent £5 which either way is not the end of the world. 

So here is what I got.





So in all the colours are quite pretty and the boxes they come in are quite nice just to store items. When I gave them a swatch test I was surprised with the plain eye shadows as they where some quite nice colours and they showed up pretty well when I swatched them. Now the glitter ones are not as good I mean there ok for one or two time uses maybe but not in the long run. 



Now the lipstick that cost me a £1 I actually rather like, they had a big tube of all different colours so I will be deferentially going to try a few others for that price.

Swatch of the lipstick.


Swatchs of the Eye Shadow's

So in all I think I found a few deals. They also sell brush belts for £3 so I will be getting of of those to.

Have you tryed on of Primarks Make up? If so what did you think?

Benefit Box


So Stocking up on my make up before Christmas. I got One of the Benefit Beauty Boxes. 
I needed for a while now the Benefit Hoola Bronzer. Which I ran out of a couple of months ago and can not believe it took me so long to get it back.
I always got they're real mascara which I have wanted to try for a while. I got a mini of porefessional and high beam. I am actually exited to try high beam because I have heard great things about it and I actually haven't found a amazing highlighter yet ahh I know. 


I really like the box to and will look great on my new vanity I hope I will be getting after Christmas when I get my room decorated.  




I also received a few samples of there eye cream and foundation which is always nice.

What is your favourite Benefit product, do you use it daily?

ELF Again!

Only a little post for today as I am swamped.

I really need to start controlling myself and stop buying for ELF no matter what offer they are giving. So this time was 40% of so once again I could not resist. I did not buy a large amount so I am quite proud of myself there. 


I got the ELF make up artist brush belt because I have needed one for so long and with the 40% off this was a bargain and actually loads rather a lot. 


I also bought I believe the new Daily Brush Cleaner as I always like to try new ones and at £3.75 without the money off is great.
I also bought a ELF Kabuki brush, a bamboo flat brush, Studio stipple brush and Hd blush in Head liner.

Have you taken advantage of any of the ELF amazing offers? If so what did you get?

Superdrug Haul


Ok, It's coming up to Christmas and I really need to be putting myself on a make up ban, because I am going to have no money to buy anyone presents. Which I suppose I have to do.
So I thought before I go on a ban until after Christmas when I will be getting extra money for my birthday woop! I thought I would go all out and I am going to share what I got with you in a few posts.

So at the moment in Superdrug there is a 3 for 2 going on and as I always do, I did about 4 different transactions so I could get the best deals and the most money off! I do love my high street  make up and I do love a great bargain and always look to try new make up so here is what I got.


So this Is everything I got from Superdrug.


Beautiful MUA palette which was only £4!

I have heard many reviews about this so thought I'd give it a whirl!



This is my first time getting the Maybelline colour tattoos I thought I would only get three, to see how I like them before I stock up on every colour but I am really looking forward to trying them.

I got my new Sleek trio blush In Pumpkin because I am loving the orange hope It shows up just as bright.
I love MUA Eyeshadows there so cheap and so pigmented, if you do not have any, I would say deferentially invest In all of them.

I will be giving some reviews on what I bought some time soon, when I get around to testing these out.
What's your favourite high street make up product.??

Amazon Liners


So as i was saying the over day I ordered a few things from Amazon just to test them out and see how they was I was super impressed with my Eye Shadow Palette and now another parcel came through the post yesterday. 

12 Colour pro beauty cosmetic shadow make up eye liner, eyebrow, lip liner pencil set 
(bit of a mouthful)

Anyway they came within a couple of days when I ordered them which is fab anyway and they are actually really good they are only small and maybe would only last a few sharpening but for the price you can not go wrong. 



I love that you can use them everywhere and anywhere.
I am very exited to start using these.

(with flash)

(without flash)

They are very pigmented and show up really well the black is the best I have seen in a long while as well it looks like a liquid liner it is that bright. 

For the price of £2.69 with free post and packaging, I will deferentially be buying these again.

Amazon Eye shadow Palette


So I was looking on Amazon at the different non-branded make up and I came across a few items, and thought I may as well give them a try. As if they was great I have got myself a absolute bargain and if there not to good I won't have lost out on much.

So first to come was a 120 Colours Eye Shadow Palette. I am actually pretty impressed the pots are only very small but for the price you can not go wrong. 

(Apologise for my reflection in the photo and film on them)

So as you see there is some really bright colours in there and I was thinking they will not be amazingling pigmented but some are some are very good and bright and you only need a small amount.



I am loving the red/orange colour and the blue there is just some really nice colours in there.


So I paid £4.99 for this with £1.99 delivery which I think is now a bargain.

 I'm exited for my over things I have ordered to come now see how good they are!
