I have a collective haul to share with you today. It includes mostly make-up, but also some accessories, clothes, and a pair of shoes.

For once I only picked up two products from the MAC holiday 2024 collection. The collection is called Gift Of Gold, and I was very excited to see MAC launch a new type of blush. I got the Skinfinish Metallic cream blush in the shade Priceless Purple, which is such a fun shade. I also bought one of the frost lipsticks in the shade Regal Red, which is a great Christmas lipstick shade.

I received a Holiday Gift bag and a Macximal silky matte lipstick in Whirl with my MAC order.

Ever since I saw the Dior Forever liquid sequin liquid lipsticks launch around Christmas time in 2023, I’d been wanting to try one, but they sold out so quickly. So I was so excited to see them come back for the holidays in 2024, and I picked up the red shade in 999.

Of course I had to pick up the Natasha Denona Roxa palette. I love Natasha Denona’s eyeshadow formulas, and purple is my favourite colour, so this was a no-brainer purchase for me.

I also bought three indie palettes from Monolith. The first one is the Ensley Reign Cosmetics Underland palette. It has this dark and moody colour story, which is fun and different.

The Vamp palette from Bellabeautébar was their Halloween release for 2024, and it was not the only Halloween palette release with a purple and red colour story, and I’m not mad about it. Purple and red is actually a bit of an underrated colour story.

This is the Harvest of Souls palette from Fantasy Cosmetica, and it’s the biggest palette that they’ve released to date. It’s absolutely stunning. Just look at that colour story.

I love Cosmic Brushes, and for Halloween 2024 they launched their first mystery box. The box includes a palette, three cream blushes, and three lipsticks. If you haven’t bought it, but is planning to do so, here’s your spoiler alert.

The Sinister palette is another palette with a purple and red colour story, which is really fun and inspiring.

The cream blushes from Cosmic Brushes are called Blush Butter and come in three fun shades in this box (from left to right); Got Chills, Dazed, and Heroine.

The three lipsticks are the Velvet matte lipsticks in the shades Salem, Nancy, and Clarice. Very interesting shades, and I like the formula.

I picked up three bow accessories; two brooches from Maanesten (the style is called Memoru) and a leopard print hair clip from Accessorize.

I’ve mentioned before that I love pink and red together, and that was apparently very obvious back in October, when I purchased a floral dress from Asos Design, a stripy dress from Monki, and an oversized T-shirt from JJXX in that colour combo.

Lastly, I found these purple suede boots from Tamaris 60% off in a department store, and I thought they were a great pair of comfy, colourful boots that would go with a lot of different looks.
