Makeup Haul | Mac, Benefit & Too Faced


Hello Lovely People,
As you can see, I went makeup shopping and kind of went a little mad, so I thought I'd share some of the amazing products I bought with you, first with an overview of everything and then in the upcoming days I'll review them individually. The Products I purchased are from Mac, Benefit, and Too Faced, all from Debenhams in Cabot Circus in Bristol. Mac is my typical goto Makeup store, Benefit next and then Too Faced is a product i have never tried before, although, I have heard great things and had heart palpitations when I saw the little Too Faced Stool, as I thought you could only get them online in the UK.

There were 3 items I knew I wanted to purchase from Too Faced that I had wanted for ages, The Sweetheart Perfect Flush Blush, The Brow Envy Kit and The Powder Pouf Brush (Which unfortunately I was unable to stretch my pay packet to :( ) The Blush, In colour "Something about Berry"just has the perfect blush colour pallet inside, with three really beautiful pink shades within. As for the Brow Envy Kit, I am a complete sucker for Brow Kits, I have so many it's shameful, and unneeded, However, this was an exception... another exception! ;) The kit is packed with everything you need, wax, powder, highlighter, 2 different brushes, tweezers, stencils and brow directions! Just amazing. 

As for Benefit, I use this brand a fair amount, I mean, what is there not to love, Flawless makeup, their funky retro design, colourful girly brand, and the cute slogans they put on their products that just make you smile! The first item I rushed to was the Gimme Brow - brow-volumizing Powder Gel. my eyebrows are almost non-existent when I apply my foundation, the colour seems to camouflage in with my makeup look, even though I'm a naturally dark haired brunette! So I usually apply a lot of eye brow makeup, and end up getting annoyed when it messes up when I'm in a rush! So this product, sticking my brow hairs in the perfect direction, giving them lift and a little colour is perfect for when I'm in a rush and want to wear minimal makeup. The Hoola Bronzer is just another product I have seen people going on about, so I thought I'd give it a try, a long with the They're real mascara. As for the Boi-ing Concealer, apparently, this is the Benefit Equivalent to the Mac Studio Finish Concealer, which is what I use, however, I felt it was time for a change to see if the Boi-ing could step up to the challenge of covering my freckles that come out in the sun, of which, actually, my Studio Finish hasn't been!

Then onto Mac, I got my usual, Mac Studio Fix Fluid, which I swear by like the rest of world :P I decided on purchasing another Mac 187 brush, which I use with my Studio Fix Fluid Foundation, as my other two have seen better days! And then I went a little Lipstick Crazy! I bought, the Retro Matte Relentlessly Red, The Matte Candy Yum-Yum and Amplified Creme Morange, They are all very loud and bright colours, of which, I love the names, The names describe and compliment the colour perfectly.

Hopefully in the next couple of days I will be reviewing some of the products and hope to love the ones I haven't tried as much as I think I will love them!

Have a great evening, Nighty night

A Walk In The Park | OOTD

Today I went for a drive in my new car, and ended up at the woods, me and my boyfriend decided to go for a walk, so I thought I'd get him to snap a picture of my outfit for the day! I know I seem a little too dressed up for the woods and I have slightly inappropriate footwear for the muddy walkways but I was too excited to wear some of my latest purchases!


Floral Statement Necklace | Wallis @ Debenhams | £20.00
Blue Denim Skinny Jeans (Old) | Topshop | £40
White Sandles | Primark | £8.00

I bought some of these pieces recently, the crop jumper I particularly love, and bought to wear on the plane on my upcoming holiday. This crop top is part of a co-ord set and you can buy a midi knitted skirt to match, but I didn't need the other half on this occasion (unlike me!) My pink round sunglasses are also from missguided and they are my absolute fave, they are the prettiest colour of pink and have a really nice graduated lens that fades from black to clear. This beautiful floral statement necklace is from the Wallis section in Debenhams, the moment I saw it I fell in love, it's made up of lots of really pretty pastel colours and gems and makes any boring outfit look beautiful! The jeans from Topshop were bought quite a while back, I wear them often because they are just so soft, and the super tight fit clings perfectly onto my legs! Finally, my gorgeous new Primark sandals, these seem to be quite a popular little purchase amongst bloggers, they are just as stylish as any purchase similar from somewhere such as River Island or Topshop and are quite well made, and the best part.. only £8!! Quite a difference from the £40 they cost in some other shops!

Hope you loved my casual walk in the woods outfit as much as I love it and my new Missguided, Primark and Wallis purchases.

Lots of love xo
