Collective haul (March 2025)

Posted on August 10, 2025 by Mucha-Lucha

I have a collective haul to share with you today. It includes a few clothing pieces and accessories and of course some beauty products.

I was eyeing this coat from the brand Stella Nova for so long, but it was quite expensive, and I didn’t want to pay full price for it. But back in March I found it 50% off, which I saw as a sign for me to get it, and I’m so glad I did. I can’t wait to wear it again in autumn when the weather gets a bit colder again.

I love a simple tank top, and H&M usually makes them in a lot of different colours. I picked up this olive green one on sale.

I found these navy pinstripe trousers in a sample sale, so I got them for a good price. They’re from a brand called Co Couture.

This little lime green bag is from the brand True Decadence, and I purchased it to wear to a wedding earlier this summer.

I also wore this orchid hair clip at that wedding. It’s from the brand Sui Ava.

Moving on to make-up and other beauty bits. I’ve mentioned before how much I love the Huda Beauty Blush Filters, so I got another shade, Bubblegum, on sale.

I’d already purchased a few shades of the Fenty Beauty Cheeks Suede shimmer blushes, but I’d been wanting the matte shade in Lolly Poppy 03, and it’s stunning.

I picked up these last bits from Sephora. I got a back-up/new of the Natasha Denona Macro Tech eye pencil in Fushi, a Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb Stix shimmer in Flamingo Fling 05, the Rare Beauty Selena’s Essential eye duo including the All Of The Above weightless eyeshadow stick and a mini Perfect Strokes universal volumizing mascara, and lastly the Ole Henriksen Hygge Hotel body care duo including a Stay in Touch restorative hand créme 75ml and a Firmly Yours toning dry body oil 30 ml.

Darker, but still fun

Posted on August 5, 2025 by Mucha-Lucha

Here’s what I wore Thursday June 5. I usually don’t wear looks in darker colour schemes very often, but I actually think this look is fun. Oh, and excuse my daughter’s play vanity sneaking into the picture:)

Matas haul (February 2025)

Posted on August 4, 2025 by Mucha-Lucha

I have a beauty haul to share with you today. It includes a bit of everything, so let’s get into it.

I purchased three foundations; the Maybelline Superstay Lumi Matte foundation in shade 96, the Rimmel Kind & Free Glow It Up moisturising skin tint in Fair Porcelain 01, and a mini TirTir Mask Fit Red Cushion in 13N Fair Ivory. My most used one so far and therefore my favourite at the moment is the Maybelline Superstay Lumi Matte foundation, but I’ve liked the look of the Rimmel Kind & Free Glow It Up moisturising skin tint the times I’ve worn it. I already owned the TirTir Mask Fit Red Cushion, but in a shade that’s a little too dark on me, so the 13N Fair Ivory shade is a better match.

I’d been wanting to try the Maybelline Sunkisser hazy matte blush and the Sunkisser highlighter, so I decided to get a shade of each. The blush is in the shade 30 Pink Mirage, and the highlighter is in the shade 22 Star Studded. Both are pretty.

Laka is a K-beauty brand that I hadn’t heard of before, but I was intrigued by some of their products. I picked up Love Silk blush in #708 Poem, which is a very unique cool-toned shade. I also got Dreambeam highlighter in #03 Water Beam, which is such a pretty light blue-ish/periwinkle shade. The last product from Laka that I decided to try out was one of their Bonding Glow lipsticks in #206 Lili, which is a lovely warm pink shade. I might want to try some more products from this brand in the future.

Lastly, I bought another shade of the Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High mascaras, which is one of my favourite mascaras. I got the shade Green Altitude. And the last three products are from Essence. I got the Meta Glow duo-chrome eye pencil in 04 Chromalicious, the Baby Got Bronze shimmering bronzer in 10 Golden Hour, and the Glossy Glaze high shine lipstick in 04 Red Dy For The Day. All fun products.
