I have a Monki haul to share with you today. The first three pieces were not on sale, but the rest were.
How cute is this print! Monki just makes the prettiest, most colourful prints, which is why it’s probably my favourite clothing brand. I love the silhouettes of their pieces as well. I think the dress is absolutely adorable, but I sadly haven’t found the perfect occasion to wear it for yet. And I just love the oversized blazers and matching trousers from Monki. I can’t wait to wear this suit.
And now on to the sale items. Can you tell I like these checkered prints? I already own the blazers in these two prints plus a coat and scarf in the purple/orange/pink print, but I had to have a dress, both sweatshirts, and the two pairs of matching trousers as well. They were on sale, so how could I not?:)
I also got this red and pink striped T-shirt in the sale, and I’ve already worn it quite a bit. I just love red and pink together.
These pink and purple ombré track pants were just so fun, and I have actually styled them up for everyday here and here.
The last thing I picked up in the sale was this adorable pink strawberry wool beret. I love a good beret, and this one is just so cute.
The MAC x Richard Quinn collection is one of the prettiest collections MAC has done in a while. The packaging is just beautiful, and so are the actual products.
This is the Quinning eye shadow palette. I love the addition of the black and white to an otherwise pastel palette; it creates a nice contrast. I’m wearing the palette on my eyes here.
These are the Powder Blush Duo in Sunset Boulevard and the Extra Dimension Skinfinish in Day_Glow. I love all blush formulas from MAC and I also love the Extra Dimension Skinfinish formula, so I knew that I would like these.
It’s the first time I’m trying one of the Colour Express Gel pencil eye liners from MAC. This one is in the shade Lav-It, and it’s a pretty lavender. I really like the formula and colour and I love the packaging.
I picked up three lipsticks; one in this square black packaging and two in the rounded floral packaging. This is the shade Mehr, which is in the permanent range, but I’ve never tried it.
These are both limited edition shades. The pinky red is called Vamp-Tastic and the bright magenta is called Mega Magenta. Both shades are stunning.
I have a collective haul to share with you today. It’s a mix of clothes, accessories, and make-up. I purchased all of these things back in March.
Let’s begin with clothes and more specifically trousers. My body has obviously changed after being pregnant and having a baby, so I had to buy new trousers, since I can’t fit into my trousers from before I was pregnant yet (maybe I’ll never fit them again). I love wide leg trousers, so I picked up a pair of red cargo trousers and a pair of floral jeans from H&M. I got both pairs 20% off. The lilac joggers are also from H&M and they were also on sale.
This maxi linen skirt form H&M wasn’t on sale, but it was just so beautiful, so I had to have it. I actually haven’t worn it yet, but I’m excited to do so soon.
When I was breastfeeding my daughter I loved cardigans, because they were so practical, but I think I’ll continue to wear them, even though I’m not breastfeeding anymore. I love the colour and fit of this one from H&M, which was also on sale. The pastel striped roll neck jumper was also on sale, and I’d had my eye on it for a while. I can’t wait to wear it next winter.
There’s Barbie everything everywhere right now because of the Barbie film, but I purchased this oversized Barbie T-shirt before all the Barbie hype. It’s also from H&M, and I’m actually wearing it today.
This green knitted polo shirt is also from the H&M sale, and there was something very interesting about it, and I think it’ll be very fun to style.
These are the only accessories I picked up all from H&M as well. I think the flower choker is very Carrie Bradshaw, and I’m excited to style it up. And you can never have too many big hair clips, can you?
Let’s move on to make-up and let’s start out strong with some Natasha Denona. I got the Love Face palette. I think these colours are super pretty. I’m wearing it here.
I also, finally, purchased the Natasha Denona Bronze palette. I don’t wear these kinds of colours very often, but it was on sale, and I love the Natasha Denona eyeshadows. I also loved the look I created with this palette.
I randomly got another shade of the NYX Fat Oil lip drips. It’s the shade 03 Supermodel, and it might be my favourite shade I’ve tried so far.
I love cream bronzer and cream blusher, and I’ve been enjoying them in stick form, so I had to try the Essence Baby Got Bronze bronzing stick in 10 Cinnamon Spice and the Essence Baby Got Blush blush stick in 10 Tickle Me Pink, and I really liked both.
I picked up some items from the Catrice My Little Pony collection. I got the eyeshadow palette, the highlighter, and two nail laqcuers in the shades in C03 Happy Skydancer and C04 Lovely Minty. I’m wearing the palette and highlighter here.
From Catrice I also purchased three HOP, HOP HOORAY RELOADED nail lacquers in the shades C06 Spring Meadow, C09 Lavender Peony, and C08 Floral Bouquet.
I love a skin tint, so I was intrigued about the Maybelline SuperStay 24H skin tint. I picked up the shade 03, which is a good match for my skin. I haven’t used it enough to form a proper opinion on it yet, but I think I liked the way it looked.
The other foundation I picked up was the Clinique Even Better Clinical serum foundation SPF 20 in CN 08 Linen. However, the shade was too dark on me, so I have since then picked up a lighter shade, because I do really enjoy this foundation.
Lastly, I bought three lip products. I got the Tarte Maracuja Juicy Lip Plump in Lotus, the Make Up For Ever Artist Color Pencil in 806 Go Ahead Pink, and the Givenchy Rose Perfecto Beautifying lip balm in 37. I had actually ordered the liquid version of the Givenchy lip balm, but got this one instead, and since the store didn’t have the liquid version, I got to keep this one and get my money back, which was very nice.
This is my first ever Lethal Cosmetics haul. I made a couple of orders and decided to combine them into this one haul.
Let’s begin with palettes, which are the main items in this haul. I had to pick up the After Dark palette and the Nightflower palette.
This is what the After Dark palette looks like. Super colourful and fun. I’m wearing it here.
Here’s a closer look at the Nightflower palette. I can’t resist a purple palette, and I love the addition of blue to the otherwise purple heavy palette. I’m wearing it here.
In a different order I picked up the Evergreen palette and the Metamorphosis palette.
The Evergreen palette has a beautiful green colour story with pops of blue and purple. I can’t wait to play with this palette.
The Metamorphosis palette has a warmer red/pink colour story with the addition of green, orange, and gold. I’m wearing it here.
The newest palette I purchased is the Wildflower palette. This is the brighter sister to the Nightflower palette. I actually just wore this yesterday, and I loved the eye look I created with it. Overall, I’m pretty impressed with the Lethal Cosmetics eyeshadows.
Now, let’s move on to the cheek products. I picked up three blushes and one highlighter. These first two blushes are from the same collection as the Wildflower palette. They’re called Aster and Dandelion. I love this glowy blush formula; they look so pretty on the cheeks.
The last blush I picked up is in the shade Adorned, and the highlighter is in the shade Halo.
Lastly, I got the Vegan Brushes brush soap. Hopefully, this will make me clean my brushes more often:)
June has come to an end, and so has my maternity leave. Luckily, my July consists of four weeks of holiday, so I still have a bit of time left at home with my baby, before I’m going back to work in August. I’m very excited about spending my holiday with my little family and my extended family. We’ve had very nice weather lately, so hopefully it continues. I had lots of favourites this month, but I managed to pick five, so let’s talk about those.
Pink Crocs Mega Crush sandals: My love for Crocs continues. As per usual, I haven’t hauled most of the stuff in this 5 favourites post, these Crocs sandals included. However, I had to include these, because I’ve worn them a lot. They’re super comfy as Crocs are, and I think they’re pretty cute too.
e.l.f. Skin Suntouchable! Whoa Glow SPF 30 sunscreen: I hate the feeling of sunscreen on my body and especially on my face, but this one from e.l.f. Skin, which is also a make-up primer, doesn’t feel like sunscreen at all. It protects the skin, but also leaves the most beautiful glow. I’m a bit obsessed with this product to be honest. It works and looks great with and without make-up on.
Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder Ultra-Blur (shade: Translucent): I’ve never tried a Laura Mercier powder I didn’t like, but this one might take the cake. It just blurs the skin in the most beautiful and natural way, and it makes your make-up last all day.
Colourpop Super Shock shadows: I know people have been loving these eyeshadows for years, but I didn’t try Colourpop as a brand until this year. However, these cream-to-powder shadows are stunning, and I often use them as toppers to add a little extra shimmer to my eye looks. The picture shows the ones I’ve worn in June.
KAYALI Eden Juicy Apple | 01 Eau de Parfum: I received the haul that included this perfume right around the time I found out that I was pregnant last year, and I didn’t wear perfume throughout my pregnancy or for the first many months after having my daughter. It’s not until more recently that I started wearing a bit of perfume again, and this one has been my most worn one. It’s the perfect spring and summer scent; it’s just so fresh and fruity.
I have a Lyko haul to share with you today. Everything is from Catrice apart from the first three products.
These first three products were all on sale. I picked up the KVD Beauty Good Apple liquid foundation in Light 010. I’ve only worn it a couple of times, because I think the shade might be a little too dark on me. I’m also not sure if I love the finish, however, it looks pretty in pictures (I’m wearing it here). I’d been wanting to try the Iconic London Underglow blurring primer for a while, and as my March favourites suggest, I love it. I also really like the Ofra Cosmetics highlighters so I picked up this pretty light pink shade called Peppermint.
And now, let’s move on to the Catrice stuff. I got the Beautiful.You. Cream-To-Powder blushes in C01 Worth It and C02 Treat Yourself. They look really pretty.
These are the rest of the Catrice products I purchased. I got the Holiday Skin Bronze & Glow palette in 010 Out Of Office, the Cheek Flirt face stick in 020 Techno Pink, the All Over Glow Tint in 020 Keep Blushing, the 20H Ultra Precision gel eye pencil waterproof in 100 Light Up, and the Scandalous matte lipstick in 050 Sucker For Love.
Here are some close ups of the face palette and the lipstick. The face palette is obviously heavily inspired by Charlotte Tilbury’s Filmstar Bronze & Glow. The lipstick is actually a pretty unique shade, and it’s so stunning (I’m wearing it here).
I have another big collective Colourpop haul to share with you today. I was very impressed with a lot of the products from my first haul, and Colourpop offers so many cute and pretty products, so I just had to make a couple more orders. We have lots of products to go through, so let’s get into this haul.
First, I purchased the Spring Mystery Box. It included 10 products, three of which I had already purchased. The box included two palettes (the Moon Haze palette and the Malibu Barbie palette), two blushes (the Powerpuff Girls pressed powder blush in Saving The World and the Blush Stix in Coastal Drive), four lip products (The Nightmare Before Christmas Créme Lux lipstick in Sally, two Lippie Stix Matte x in With The Band and Fly-Fi, and a Lux Gloss in Ticklish), an E13 brush, and a Sol Body Comforting Bath Soak in Vanilla Dream.
Here are some close ups of some of the products from my Spring Mystery Box.
Let’s move on to a number of collections/sets I picked up. This first one is the Happy Daze eye & lip set, which includes the In A Daze palette, the Super Shock shadow in Not Too Much, and the So Glassy lip gloss in Poppy.
I haven’t worn the Super Shock shadow or the So Glassy lip gloss yet, but I wore the In A Daze palette here, and the colours were very pretty.
How pretty is the Snow White collection! I had to pick up the Dreams Come True palette, the three Super Shock blushes, and the Just One Bite lip scrub.
The colour story of the palette definitely matches the Snow White character.
I was the most excited about the Super Shock blushes from the Snow White collection. They’re called (from left to right) I Wish I Wish, Fair Enough, and Just Rosy, and they’re all in the pearlized finish. Aren’t they pretty?!
The Just One Bite lip scrub has the cutest packaging, and it smells lovely of apples.
I also decided to pick up some things from the It’s A Small World collection. I got the palette, two pressed powder blushes, and a Super Shock highlighter.
The pressed powder blushes are in the shades Dancing Darlings and Happiest Cruise, and the Super Shock highlighter is in the shade Jubilant Chorus.
Then I bought the Mariale Cyber Queen eye & lip set, which includes the ctrl+alt+glam palette, the Super Shock blush in Virtual Reality, the Crème Lux lipstick in Digital Twin, and the So Glassy lip gloss in Player 1. This set was on sale.
Here are what the products look like.
I got the Malibu Barbie palette in my Spring Mystery Box, but I had already bought it in the sale. It’s super pretty though.
From the Barbie collection I also picked up the Dreamhouse lux lipstick kit, which comes with a matching lipstick and lip pencil.
In the sale I also got the Hello Kitty Yummy Smoothie Glowing Lip Balm kit, which includes the following shades; Fun In The Sun, Tropic Cute, and Hello Fruity. The pressed powder blush, I got, is in the shade Aloha Honey.
Let’s move on to some Super Shock shadows. I purchased the Disney Princess Heart of Gold Super Shock shadow vault, which includes 12 Super Shock shadows representing 12 Disney Princesses.
These are the other eight Super Shock shadows I picked up.
I got the Snitchery Final Girl Super Shock shadow kit including the shades Main Character Energy and Plot Twist.
This is the Lawn Party Super Shock shadow kit including the shades Entranced and Beloved.
These are the shades Ritz and Ladybird from the permanent line of Super Shock shadows.
And the last two Super Shock shadows, which I got on sale, is in the shades Fruit Punch and Ur My Sunshine.
I also bought six Jelly Much shadows. The top three are from the Jelly Much eye set in So Jelly, and the shades are Big Ego, Close To You, and Boo-Kay. The bottom row were all on sale, and the shades are So What, Drama Szn, and Scandal.
Sticking with eye products, I picked up one Crème gel liner in the shade Plum Smash. I didn’t already own a plum eyeliner, so this one is a great addition to my eyeliner collection.
And now let’s move on to some more palettes. This is the Troublemaker palette, and it’s such a pretty cool-toned, grungy palette.
This the Daisy Does It palette, which I got in the sale.
I also got three 9-pan palettes; the Glow Getter palette, the All Amethyst palette, and the That’s Taupe palette.
I wore the Glow Getter palette last week, and I really like how my eye look turned out, even though it’s a more neutral palette.
I actually ordered a different palette in the sale, but received the All Amethyst palette by mistake, but you know I love purple eyeshadow, so I’m going to give this one a try instead.
The That’s Taupe palette is a classic neutral palette from Colourpop, so I have to see if it’s worth the hyped.
I also picked up two quads; the Tidal Wave palette and the Violet It Be palette. I wore the Violet It Be palette here, and it was okay, but not my favourite Colourpop palette.
These pressed powder highlighters and pressed powder blush are from this year’s Valentine’s Day collection. They’re in the shades (from left to right) Makin’ Memories, Love Struck, In My Feels, and Woo Me. They’re all super pretty.
I also purchased these two pretty pressed powder blushes in the sale. They’re called Prairie Air and Burn Card.
This Super Shock cheek is called All Laced Up, and it’s beautiful.
I love the Glowing Lip lipsticks, and this one is from a 2022 summer collection, and it’s called Mid Century.
Lastly, I got the Cabana Club palette as a free gift with purchase, and it seems to be a fun summer palette.
I have an Oden’s Eye haul to share with you today. I made this order when the Perfect World collection launched, and I picked up all three palettes; the Sea Talk palette, the Planet Spirit palette, and the Flora Story palette.
The Sea Talk palette was made in collaboration with Lauren Mae Beauty, and this is what it looks like. I used this palette to create the eye look I wore on the day of my daugther’s christening, and I loved how the look turned out.
Here’s a closer look at the colourful Planet Spirit palette made in collaboration with Betty Jean. I love colourful eyeshadows, and this palette is so fun!
The third and last palette is this beautiful green and purple colour story made in collaboration with Makeup Just For Fun.
Lastly, I purchased three lip products. I got one more of the Alva cream lip stains, because I really liked the first one I bought (which I’m wearing here). This one is in the shade A106 Poppy Girl. I also picked up one of the Alva Kiss of a Fairy cream lipsticks in S102 Love Jasmine and one of the Alva Kiss of a Fairy velvet lipsticks in L203 Fig Jam. I love the packaging of the Oden’s Eye products.
I have my first ever R.E.M. Beauty haul to share with you today. I purchased some of the products from Feelunique and the rest from Sephora.
I picked up three of the Interstellar highlighters. They’re in the shades (from left to right) Miss Mercury, Miss Neptune, and Mama Earth. Miss Mercury is a champagne shade, Miss Neptune is a lavender, and Mama Earth is green. So far I really like this highlighter formula.
These are the lip products and the other cheek product I purchased. I got the Eclipse Cheek & Lip stick in Broadway Baby, the Essential Drip lip oil in Lavender Kiss, the On Your Collar matte lipstick in Wine n Dine, and two of the On Your Collar classic lipsticks in Attention and Cabernet.
Here are some close ups of all the different shades. I really like the packaging which looks kind of space and/or astronaut themed.
Lastly, I picked up two of the Midnight Shadows liquid eyeshadows and the Midnight Shadows eyeshadow gloss. The Midnight Shadows liquid eyeshadows are in the shades Fembot and Science Fair. I’m especially loving the shade Fembot.
This is my collective beauty haul from February. It’s a good mix of everything when it comes to make-up. I’m going to group the products by the store/online shop I purchased them from.
Let’s begin with the products I purchased from Zalando. I love a coloured mascara, so I was very intrigued by the Kiko Milano Smart Colour mascaras. I picked up the shades 01 (Metallic Purple), 07 (Navy Blue), and 08 (Jungle Green). The formula is very nice, and the colours are pretty.
I also purchased three of the Kiko Milano Velvet Passion matte lipsticks. I picked the shades Sapphire Green, Imperial Blu, andLight Sienna. I wore the navy blue one here.
From Maybelline I picked up another shade of the Superstay Vinyl Ink liquid lip colours, and it’s in the shade 120 Punchy. I also got two more of the Green Edition Balmy Lip Blushes, and they’re in the shades 003 Sunshine and 007 Moonlight. I love both of these lipstick formulas.
I purchased the next four products from Magasin, and I got them all 20% off. I’ve been wanting to try the Nars Light Reflecting foundation for so long, and I picked up the shade Mont Blanc, which was supposed to match my skin, but I think it’s a little dark. I can make it work though. I also picked up the Sephora Collection Color Shifter face palette in Rose Fantasy, the Fenty Beauty Fenty Icon lipstick red case plus Fenty Icon lipstick in Kissin’ Kutie, and another shade of the Rare Beauty Soft Pinch liquid blushes. It’s in the shade Encourage.
Here’s a closer look at the Sephora Collection Color Shifter face palette in Rose Fantasy. It includes a powder blush, a powder bronzer, a shimmery topper, and a cream blush.
And here’s what the Fenty Icon lipstick looks like in the beautiful red case.
These next five products are from Sephora.
I picked up another shade of the Rare Beauty Positive Light Silky Touch highlighter. It’s the pink shade called Mesmerize, and it’s stunning!
I picked up the following three lip products: Fenty Beauty Poutsicle Juicy Satin lipstick in Go Deep (70% off on sale), Fenty Beauty Mattemoiselle Plush matte lipstick in Dragon Mami (50% off on sale), and Pat McGrath Labs Lip Fetish Divinyl lip shine in Temptress (70% off on sale).
And then I got the Kayali Sweet Diamond Pink Pepper I 25 Eau de Parfum 10 ml 20% off. I love Kayali scents!
From Matas (the Danish drugstore) I picked up two more of the Clarins Instant Comfort lip oils. I got 04 Pitaya and 08 Strawberry. This is one of my favourite lip oil formulas if not my top favourite. I also purchased two Gosh Velvet Touch lip liners. They’re in the shades 001 Nougat Crisp and 002 Antique Rose, and they’re both beautiful shades.
Lastly, I finally got my hands on the Cosmic Brushes Serenity palette, and at the same time I also purchased the Cosmic Brushes Royal Rose palette.
I see why this palette is so hyped up. The colour story is stunning, and the one look I’ve created with it so far turned out beautiful.
The Royal Rose palette also looks beautiful. I haven’t played with it yet, but I’m excited to be doing so hopefully soon.
Mucha-Lucha's
