Finally all my products have arrived and I can finally do this haul!
*DISCLAIMER* I am in no way bragging here, most of these things I have bought with my birthday vouchers and pocket money over the past few months and I thought I'd bring it all together and do a haul.*
So firstly lets delve right into it! Firstly I have the St Tropez Self Tan Classic Mousse. I haven't yet tried this out yet, buy maybe I will do a review soon. As I am an ELLE INSIDER, every month they send me deals and this particular deal was 30% OFF St Tropez so I bought it as I have been into self tanning recently because I am so pale and need to add a bit of colour to my skin! This was £20.43, without discount.
Next is the Make Me Blush Blusher in 12. Dazzling Peach by H&M, (wow that was a mouthful!). I really love this blusher, I needed a lighter shade and a less pinkier one as I have a Topshop blusher but it is so bright and not always do I want to wear a bright coloured blush! I also really like this blusher because it has a slight silver flex to it so it gives you a natural highlighted glow. This was a £2.99.
On the highlighter note, I had some Topshop vouchers so I purchased the Topshop Glow in Polished. This is a cream highlighter, it is white/silver in the pot, but when you apply it to the skin is very irodescent and gives a natural glow to the face, as the name suggests! I cant wait to get using it as this was a recent purchase! This was £9.00.
Eye time! This is the Rimmel London Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Liner Pencil in 071 Pure White. I purchased this item for mornings (and obviously for other things) when my eyes are looking tired and I need to brighten up my eyes to make them look more awake, so I apply this in the water line. This is a cheap eye liner that does everything I want it to. Next time I wouldn't probably get a pure white shade, probably more of a nude colour because the white can look too harsh sometimes, but all in all it does the job! This was £2.99.
I'm quite late to the bandwagon with this, I know, but this is the Maybelline New York 24HR Colour Tattoo Gel-Cream Shadow in 65 Pink Gold. This also is a new purchase and have only swatched it on the back of my hand but so far I really like it! It's a really pigmented cream shadow, it's a rosey shimmery colour. Personally I would wear this colour on the lid and blend a darker matt pink colour into the crease to define further. I can't wait to style this up! This was £4.99.
I have a lot of eye/brow products in this haul! You can't have your brows messy can you?! Next is also another product from H&M! This is the EyeBrow Fix by H&M, I was highly surprised with this product as I didn't think it would do the job, but it has! You're probably wondering, eyebrow fix? Well this is a clear gel to set your eyebrows in place for the whole day so your eyebrows don't end up half way down your face by the end of the day! Recently I've been penciling my eyebrows in the sparse areas and this locks it all there! Holy Grail! This was a cheap and cheerful price at £2.99.
Another brow product! I did a Feel Unique order the other week as I was in need in a few products I couldn't get hold of at that moment, this was when I bought the Maybelline New York 24HR Colour Tattoo Gel-Cream Shadow in 65 Pink Gold and the Rimmel London Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Liner Pencil in 071 Pure White. So this is the Pixi Lash & Brow Groomer, in other words a spoolie, my Boots one had broke but that was the duo one, with the comb on one side and the brush on the other. I had really wanted a spoolie/groomer so I thought I'd order one as I was ordering a few other things. I can't really say much about this product, it does the job and thats it really! This was £8.00, slightly expensive, but you always need one.
Now back to eyes, well lashes. You're probably thinking, uh a mascara, but nope, eyelash curlers! I have never really used eyelash curlers because I always thought I didn't need them, but now I would never go back! Again, another H&M product (vouchers!), these are the Eyelash Curlers by H&M in Rose Gold (also comes with an extra rubber pad). You can get these in rose gold, pink, silver and black, I believe. Really simple, I really like these, they curl your lashes really well and overall make your mascara look 10x better. Definitely one to buy! These were £2.99.
This is quite a boring thing so by all means skip to the next paragraph if you don't care about nails! But these are just the (Primark) P.S. Love... Fashion Nails. These are false nails, for a cheap price. They come with a tube of nail adhesive and the glue is really good surprisingly! I bought the nails in plain white matt as I'm loving the matt white trend at the moment! They look great! These were £1.00 for a pack of 24 nails. (Primark doesn't have a website, sorry!)

Now to something exciting! If you have read my previous blog posts you'll be familiar with this product! This is the Mac Satin Lipstick in Faux. To read about this lipstick and my Mac Experience click here. This is a lovely nude/pink lipstick, it's natural and goes with everything, so go and check my previous post out and get up to date! This was £15.50.
Another lipstick, but on a slightly cheaper scale. If you are new to lipsticks start off at Topshop, their lipsticks are great and do a huge variety of colours! I was feeling very adventurous when I purchased this lipstick! This is the Topshop Lipstick in Ditsy. This lipstick is not a red but more of a toned down coral/orange. I really like this colour and I will most probably wear it with a very simple eye and the lips will be the main focus. Having an orange lipstick is one of the colours I've always wanted, it's been on many runways and it will look so lovely in the summer months. This was £8.00.
Finally, you can start to rest your eyes, its the final product! Now, in the August edition of the Elle Magazine there was a sample of a Garnier BB cream so I thought I'd give it a shot. So obviously this final product is the Garnier BB Cream Miracle Skin Perfector in Light/Clair. I tried this BB cream in the sample as stepping stone to foundation as this is much more of a lighter cream than foundation. I really love this BB cream, (duh other wise I wouldn't have bought it, oops stupid me). It gives a light to medium coverage and is much lighter and 'less' on the skin as a foundation. When I applied the sample to my skin I was praying that the next day I wouldn't brake out, as now my skin is very problematic and anything can flare it up and I end up with so many spots, uh. But this didn't, (thank god!), so whenever I want to dress up if there is an occasion or my skin is looking particularly bad on one day, I can apply this, hide everything, and not worry the next day it won't make my skin even worse! This was £6.66.
So thats a wrap!
There is one more thing that hasn't arrived yet, but that will be part of a blog post in the near future!
Next post will be all about brushes, keep an eye out!
Bye for now!
