Today’s haul is a small one. I purchased three products from the MAC Magnificent Moon collection when it released, and I thought I would share them with you.
The Extra Dimension Skinfinish x4: Surrounded by Stars palette is the star of the collection in my opinion. It comes with four shades; one hightlight shade and three blushes – at least on my skintone. The shades are Oh Darling!, Hushed Tone, Surrounded By Stars, and Hard To Get. I think the packaging of this collection is really pretty, but just look at the actually product; so detailed and so stunning!
The other two products I picked up from the collection are a lipstick in the shade Skies Above and a lip pencil in the shade Spice. Skies Above is a limited edition shade, but Spice is a permanent shade in the lip pencil range that I didn’t already own. I’m wearing all three products here.
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. For this look I pulled out one of my old favourite purple lipsticks, MAC’s Up The Amp, and I kind of fell in love with it all over again.

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I don’t know what came over me at this time, but I wore another golden eye look. This time I used the Natasha Denona Gold palette, which seemed like an obvious choice for a golden eye look.

Here’s what I wore Wednesday June 8. You’ve already seen me wear these jeans a couple of times, but what I didn’t tell you then is that they’re actually maternity jeans.
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I love my Jeffree Star Cosmetics Blue Blood palette, but for some reason I haven’t used the teal shades in the palette very much. I’m glad that I rediscovered them, because I think this eye look is so pretty.
(Base: primer – NYX Angel Veil primer, foundation – L’Oreal Infaillible 24H Fresh Wear foundation (shade: 015 Porcelain), concealers – L’Oréal Infaillible More Than Concealer (shade: 322 Ivory) + e.l.f.

Here’s what I wore Tuesday June 7. I love the red, teal, and white colours of the dress, so obviously I incorporated those colours into the rest of my look.
I have a collective haul to share with you today. This haul consists of both clothes and make-up and all items were purchased in March.
I’ve already talked about this blue retro floral matching set from Monki, so I won’t say anything other than I love it, and that it’s one of my favourite clothing purchases this year so far.
You’ve already seen me wear all three of these Monki dresses. I purchased the floral wrap dress and the red checkered dress on sale. All of these dresses are great for a small to medium baby bump:)
You’ve also seen me wear this lilac dress a couple of times. It’s from my local supermarket brand VRS, and it is also a great dress to wear with a growing bump.
These last two clothing pieces are from Zara. I just fell in love with the Winnie The Pooh sweater vest; I just love the colours and the fun details. And you know I love dinosaurs, so I thought the stripy T-shirt was cute.
Let’s move on to make-up. First off, I purchased four products from Essence and one from e.l.f. Cosmetics from Cocopanda. I got the Essence Welcome to Miami eyeshadow palette, the Essence Hello Good Stuff Happy Bliss face spray, the Essence Juicy Bomb shiny lipglosses in 09 Fresh Banana and 10 Sweet Mint, and the e.l.f. Cosmetics Putty blush in Turks and Caicos.
Here’s a closer look at the palette and the blush. I love the e.l.f. Cosmetics Putty blushes, and Turks and Caicos is such a pretty shade. However, I was not super impressed by the Essence Welcome to Miami eyeshadow palette. The look I created with it was pretty enough, but it’s not the easiest palette to work with, so I’ve actually already decluttered it from my collection.
Here are three other random make-up items that I picked up in March. I purchased the Anastasia Beverly Hills Lip Liner in Sandstone, and I love it. The shade is beautiful, and the formula is great. I also picked up the e.l.f. Cosmetics Flawless Brightening concealer in Fair 10 C, which has been a go-to undereye concealer of mine for the past couple of months. And then I got the NYX Thick It. Stick It! brow mascara in Taupe. Lots of people love this product, but I’m not sure about it. I think it might be too pigmented for my liking, but maybe I just have to play around with it a bit more.
And last, but most certainly not least, I purchased the Natasha Denona Pastel palette back in March. I’ve posted many looks with this palette, and I’ve featured it in a previous 5 favourites post, so it’s easy to tell that I love this palette. It’s one of my favourite and most used Natasha Denona palettes.
