MAC, elf and Benefit haul

I went shopping!

Benefit Sugarbomb

I couldn't decide between this and Bella Bamba, they are both really lovely and the colours suit my skin colour really well. Bella Bamba has only just come out so I decided I would get this one first, as I have wanted it the longest :) It looks kind of weird with the 4 different shades but if you swirl your brush around them you get a really nice shimmery blush. You could also use the lightest peach shade as a highlighter on your upper cheekbones!

Mac Sheertone Shimmer Blush in Dollymix and Benefit Sugarbomb

This is my first Mac blush, can you believe it?! I wasn't sure what colour to go for (I bought all of these from the website so I couldn't see the colours properly) so anyways, I scouted fellow bloggers and saw that the colour most talked about seemed to be Dollymix. I have to say that when it came through the post I was a little shocked at how bright it was. I haven't used it yet but I am very excited to try it!

Illamasqua Sheer Lipgloss in Rouse

I bought this Illamasqua lipgloss mainly because I wanted to see what all the fuss was about surrounding the brand, its a lovely sheer shade of bright pink and i will definately be buying more! 

Mac Viva Glam GAGA Lipgloss

I have been wanting either the Lady gaga Viva Glam Lipstick or the Lipgloss for a while (the original one not the new one) and i finally decided to get the lipgloss (lipstick next!) I love it! Its such a lovely colour, a pale bubblegum pink, and it smells amazing.

These are my favourite Mac lipsticks, Impassioned and Pink Nouveau. I bought Impassioned last summer whilst my sister had her make up done for her prom, I love the punchy bright orangey, red colour (if you can imagine what im trying to describe?!) Pink Nouveau was my first ever Mac purchase, and I am on my 4th one! Its such a cute barbie pink :)

Mac cremesheen lipstick in Shy Girl

I recently bought this lippy as advised by Rachel from Glimmer and Glow :) I love this colour, its such a subtle coral colour, completely different from my recent disappointment with elf...another post to explain that! It is also a cremesheen so is so moisturising and is like wearing a lipbalm!

MAC...Tartan Tale

MAC Tartan Tale, 5 Smokey Thrillseekers Pigments/Glitters

As soon as pay day comes around the corner, I already have everything planned out in my head that I'm wanting to splash the cash on that month. Last month it was one of the limited edition MAC pieces. At £27.50 I wasn't sure if it would be worth the money as I hadn't seen the product size for myself, but the colours looked so intriguing I decided I HAD to have it. The colours included are Jigs & Jive, Dark Soul, Reflects Blackened Red Glitter, Blue Brown and Naked. When my little black box arrived, I was incredibly disappointed to find that Reflects Blackened Red Glitter had accidentally opened in transit and spilt everywhere..boo! I managed to salvage most of it thank god! However, there wasn't very much of it to clear up as the pots are not the regular sized Pigments, they are alot smaller. I decided that due to the range of colours that you get for your money, the size doesn't really matter as you do get alot for your money.
