Cute Christmas

Here’s what I wore Wednesday December 18. I’ve always really liked this Christmas jumper, because it’s so Christmassy, and I think it looked cute with my cropped green trousers and my denim western boots.

Blue with a pop of yellow

Sephora haul (July 2024)

I have a Sephora haul to share with you today. This haul includes some items that I’d been really excited to try and also some back-ups.

I featured both the Kayali Eden Sparkling Lychee I 39 Eau De Parfum and the Makeup By Mario SoftSculpt serum bronzer in Fair in my August favourites post, and I still love both of these products.

I also picked up the Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb Stix in 04 Is It Fu$$y. I actually haven’t worn this yet.

Rare Beauty was on sale, which happens very rarely, so I picked up three back-ups; the Perfect Strokes universal volumizing mascara, the Positive Light under eye brightener in Light, and the Positive Light tinted moisturizer in 14W. I really love all three of these products. I also bought another shade of the Soft Pinch luminous powder blushes. I chose the shade Happy, which is a beautiful pink.

Lastly, I purchased the Pat McGrath Labs Mthrshp Bijoux Brilliance blush and eye shadow palette in Jeweled Temptation on sale. It’s from last year’s holiday release from Pat McGrath Labs, and it’s quite pretty.
