I have a Beauty Bay haul to share with you today. I made the order because I wanted the limited edition summer palette from By BEAUTY BAY, and then I also picked up some other bits while I was at it.

This is the By BEAUTY BAY Desert Haze palette. It’s a bronzy, neutral palette with a few pops of colour, and I loved this look I created with it.

I also picked up the By BEAUTY BAY Golden Haze hair & body fragrance mist, which came with the summer collection. I’ve been really into perfume/body mists this year, so I thought I would try this one out. It smells nice, but it’s very subtle.

I bought two highlighters. I got the By BEAUTY BAY liquid cream highlighter in Disco on sale. It’s a pink iridescent shade. And I’d been wanting to add the NYX Buttermelt highlighter in 45 Butta in Black, because it’s so unique and so pretty.

For lips, I got the Unicorn Cosmetics Bear Face lip oil in Sleepy Bear, which was on sale, the Nimya Discosphere glitter lip topper in Wanna Be On Taupe?, and Sacheu Beauty lip liner STAY-IN in getREDy.

And lastly, I picked up the Anastasia Beverly Hills Natural & Polished kit in Taupe in the sale. The kit includes a Brow Wiz in Taupe, a Brow Definer in Taupe, and a Clear brow gel.

I have an indie make-up haul to share with you today. It includes an order I made from Oden’s Eye and an order or two, I think, I made from Monolith. Let’s begin with Oden’s Eye.

Back in the summer, Oden’s Eye released four eyeshadow palettes, each representing a season. This first one is the Spring Älva palette. This is not my favourite colour story of the four, but I do think this look that I created with it came out very pretty.

The Summer Älva palette has such a pretty colour story, but it’s not what I would’ve expected from a summer colour story. However, that’s what makes this collection so fun; all the colour stories are a bit different than what you might have expected. I wore this palette here.

The Autumn Älva palette is probably the palette that fits its season the best based on the colour story. The look that I created with it definitely felt very autumnal.

The last palette in this collection is of course the Winter Älva palette, and I can see winter in this one with all the cool-toned and dark shades, but I think the pops of the lighter and slightly warmer shades is a fun addition to the colour story. I did this pretty look with the palette.

Let’s move on to the palettes I got full price from Monolith. I also picked up a bunch of products in their summer sale. This first palette was new at the time, and it’s the Arttitude Cosmetics Arcana palette. I was a bit hesitant when it came to purchasing this palette, because it almost looks like the palette has a grey filter over it, but I was pleasantly surprised by this teal look I created with the palette.

You know neutrals are not my favourites, however, I do like a neutral palette with a twist, and I think the Gourmande Girls Mocha Moment palette is just that. It has greens and more purple leaning shades, but the first look I did with it was actually with the more straigt up neutrals and the golds, and I thought the look turned out lovely.

This is the Glaminatrix Cosmetics April Fool’s palette that became a reality. The April Fool’s palette was called Tones of Turd, and they also sell this exact colour story in a palette called Tones of Turd. The shades then have turd related names. I didn’t feel like putting turd named shadows on my eyelids, so I got the Grounded palette instead. The colour story really is stunning and very autumnal, and I created this look with it.

Now, let’s move on to the products I got in the Monolith summer sale. I got another Glaminatrix palette, the Nearly Natural palette, which is another neutral palette with a twist, though it’s more neutral than the Gourmande Girls Mocha Moment palette. I did this rosy-toned eye look with this palette.

I think this is the last neutral palette in this haul. Even though the Twilight Saga is very nostalgic to me, I didn’t pick up anything from the Glamlite Twilight Breaking Dawn part 1 collection when it launched. However, I’d heard that the Team Jacob palette had really good quality, so I decided to pick it up in the summer sale. I wore it here.

The Vintage Rose palette is an older palette from Give Me Glow Cosmetics, but they recently made several of their palettes in a smaller format, which I like, because their palettes used to be huge. This is a very pretty and romantic colour story, and I wore it on my birthday this year.

I really liked the Glowing Iris quad from Kaleidos, so I decided to pick up the Twilight Rush quad in the sale. I actually still haven’t worn this palette yet, but I can imagine that you can create a really pretty, smokey look with it.

I’d been considering buying the It’s Bel Cosmetics Tropical Nights palette and Tropical Night blush & highlighter palette many times before, so I finally picked them up in the summer sale. They’re created in collaboration with Bri C Beauty, and both palettes are really fun and colourful. I wore both palettes in this look.

The last few things in this haul are highlighters and a lipstick. Another product that I’d been wanting to pick up for so long is the Unearthly Cosmetics Dreamer Low Light highlighter trio. I thought the shades might be a little deep on me, but so far so good.

I also bought another Low Light highlighter from Unearthly Cosmetics. This one is made in collaboration with Xander and it’s called Ooze. It’s a really pretty green shifty highlighter.

Lastly, I got a lipstick from the Wicked Widow Beauty American Psycho collection. It’s in the shade Murder, and it’s described as a shimmer lipstick. Sadly, it’s not that shimmery on the lips.

This is the last part of my collective haul from June and July 2025. It consists of all the beauty bits I picked up during those months that aren’t included in other beauty hauls.

I’d heard good things about the Morphe Wakeup Artist under eye correcting concealer. I picked it up in the shade Ivory 3N, and I do like it, however, it hasn’t become one of my absolute go-tos. Maybe because the shade is a tad light.

These are two products I really wanted to try. The Dior Backstage Rosy Glow Stick in 015 Cherry is a very pretty stick blush. I love the colour. And I already have a couple of shades of the Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb Stix shimmers, but I really wanted the shade Icy Amethy$t 04, and it’s beautiful.

Fenty Beauty often makes fun limited edition collections, and how cute are these Smurf products? I picked up the Fenty Beauty Fenty Icon Velvet liquid lipstick in Smurf’Melon, which is a formula I’ve never tried, but I’ve always wanted to, and I also got the Fenty Beauty Smurfette Smooches lip essentials duo & keychain, which came with a Fenty Treatz lip oil in Smurfberry and Gloss Bomb Universal lip luminizer in Smurfette Effect.

I’d been missing a true lime green eyeliner in my collection, so I bought the e.l.f. Cosmetics Smoky Eye-Con kohl eyeliner in Limelight. I also got the NYX Lift & Snatch! Brow tint pen in Ash Brown, which has been my go-to eye pen lately.

I almost never buy anything from NARS, but I’d been intrigued by these limited edition face palettes before, so this summer I decided to finally get one. This is the NARS Hot Escape cheek palette I, which includes two blushes, a highlighter, and a bronzer. I’ve used it a couple of times, and I do like it.

Another little face palette that I picked up is the Makeup Revolution Blush Icon palette in My Cherry Truth. These are very pigmented, so keep that in mind.

Let’s move on to some products from NABLA, which have been on my wishlist for so long. First up, we got the NABLA Close-Up blurring powder blush in Endorphin. Red is my favourite blush colour, so I had to get this shade, and it’s really pretty on the cheeks.

I also got two of the NABLA Beyond Jelly lipsticks (shades: Red Sapphire and Nocturna) and a NABLA Lip Candy Oil in Honey.

I have a few more lip products left. These are the 3ina The Color Lip Oil in 137 Yellow and 244 Red. I really enjoy 3ina lip products.

And lastly, I picked up this Burt’s Bees Bee Mine lip balm set, because you can never have too many lip balms.

I have a rather large collective indie make-up haul to share with you today. I made an order from Nomad Cosmetics, one from GlossGods Cosmetics, and two from Monolith.

Back in June, Nomad Cosmetics rereleased three of their former palettes in their updated formula, and I decided to get all three. I wore Fêtes de Provence here, America’s Parks here, and Berlin Untergrund here.

I picked up these three products from GlossGods Cosmetics’ summer collection; the Drippin’ palette, the Sizzlin’ palette, and the Multi-use Jelly Drip Stick in Drip Tease.

I wore the Drippin’ palette and the Multi-use Jelly Drip Stick here, and I wore the Sizzlin’ palette here.

Let’s move on to the first order I made from Monolith. I picked up four stunning palettes. The colour story of the Bellabeautébar Ocean Jewel palette is right up my street. I’m wearing this palette in my next make-up post.

I’ve been really enjoying Glaminatrix Cosmetics eyeshadows lately, and the Timeless Tones palette is really pretty. I created this eye look with it.

Ensley Reign Cosmetics hasn’t been wowing me lately, but I couldn’t resist the colour story of the Whispering Woods palette. I wore it here.

I usually love the colour stories Angelica Nyqvist creates, whether it being for collabs with other brands such as Oden’s Eye or for her own brand Singe Beauty. The Singe Beauty Agate Temptation palette is no exception. I created this fun look with the palette.

I love the Unearthly Cosmetics Menacing Metals lipsticks, and I was very excited about the shade extension. I picked up the shades (from left to right) Ghostly, Dragonfly, Piranha, and Darkling. I really want the shade Frostbite as well, but it has been out of stock.

These next two lip products are both from Fantasy Cosmetica, and I received them as gifts with my two orders. The lip oil is the Warlock lip oil in Ancient One, and the lipstick is the Lost Library lipstick in Lost.

Continuing with my second order, I bought my first ever lip products from Black Moon Cosmetics. I got the Sinister Satin lipstick in Werewolf and the liquid to metallic lipstick in Deville.

From Unearthly Cosmetics, I picked up their black lip liner in the shade Villan (no, it’s not a misspelling) and one of their Incandescent Glowing blushes in the shade Lumin.

The last four products are from Glaminatrix Cosmetics. I’d been wanting to try their blushes so I bought their Cream & Powder blush duo in Muted Mocha and their Liquid Cheek & Lip Flush in Sweet. Both products are so pretty.

I got the Glaminatrix Cosmetics Exquisite Eyes palette and Elevated Eyes palette on sale (I think I got them 50% off), and they both perform beautifully. I wore Exquisite Eyes here and Elevated Eyes here.

I have an indie make-up haul to share with you today. I picked up these products from Monolith and Lethal Cosmetics.

I got two palettes from Fantasy Cosmetica. The Druid palette was their very first palette, and it was missing from my collection. I’m so glad I finally picked it up, because I love this look I created with it. The Ranger palette was new at the time, and it’s really pretty as well. I wore it on my eyes here.

I love a very bright and colourful eyeshadow palette, and I’ve had so much fun playing with the Dede Signature Drops of Fantasy palette. I wore it here and here.

From Gourmande Girls, I bought the Call of the Sirens palette and the Mermaid Magic face palette, and I love both. I created this make-up look with the two palettes, and I’ve worn the face palette quite a few times more since then.

I featured the Glamlite Translucent Bake and Set powder in my June 5 favourites post, and I’ve continued to wear it often. It’s just such a good powder.

The last products in this haul are from the Lethal Cosmetics x Adventure Time collection. This is the Candy Kingdom palette, and isn’t it fun?! I just can’t resist a super colourful eyeshadow palette, and I really enjoy the Lethal Cosmetics formulas.

Lastly, I purchased the Royal Cheek bundle with all five cheek products from the Adventure Time collection. It included three cream-to-powder/bouncy blushes (from left to right; Flame Princess, Princess Bubblegum, and Lumpy Space Princess), a pH-reacting cream blush in the shade Marceline, and a Lady Rainicorn highlighter. The only cheek product I don’t particularly like is the Marceline blush, which is way to pigmented and intense.

Lilo & Stitch is a special film to me and my family, so I had to pick up the entire Disney Lilo & Stitch collection from Colourpop.

The eyeshadow palette is called Beach Dreamin’, and it has a fun and colourful colour story. I wore a bunch of the products from the collection here.

This is the Shadow Stix duo in Cute and Feisty, which includes two duochrome shades; Alien Vibes and He’s All Yours. These are some of the better Shadow Stix I’ve tried from Colourpop.

The collection also included the Instant Crush pH colour-changing blush in Crowd Favourite, which turns pink on the skin, and the Super Shock highlighter in Ohana. You know I love the Super Shock highlighter formula, and this is a really fun shade.

Lastly, the collection came with this Ultra Glossy Lip set in Keepin’ It Sweet (shades from left to right: Experiment 626, Surfer Vibes, and Super Sweet). This packaging is the cutest, and they all have different sweet and fruity scents.

I have a collective beauty haul to share with you today. These are the beauty bits I purchased back in May.

Let’s begin with some MAC lip products. I love the MAC Glow Play Tendertalk lip balms, and the shades Serve and Oops! had been on my wishlist for a while, so when I found them on sale, I picked them up. I also love the lip pencils from MAC, so I got the shade Talking Points, which is a repurchase, and the shade Root For Me!

I also picked up some new eye products from MAC. I love the Colour Excess gel pencil eye liners, and these new shades Strawberry Milk and Minty Fresh are so pretty. I’m also quite impressed by the newish Dazzleshadow eye shadow sticks. I chose the shades Haku Haze and Gold Stud.

Now let’s move on to a random selection of things. I bought the Beautyblender Blendercleanser Liquid Lavender and the Danessa Myricks Beauty Yummy Skin Lift & Flex concealer in the shade 2, which are both products I really enjoy.

I also picked up another shade of the NYX Buttermelt highlighters, because I love this formula. This is in the shade 05 Bright And Butta, which is a pretty champagne shade.

From the Essence So Cherry Happy collection, I purchased the blushlighter in 010 Love You Cherry Much, the peptide lipgloss in 01 Cherry On Top, and the body mist 100 ml.

From Morphe I got the Cloudlight Soft Glow Veil in the shade Dawn, which is very glowy, but pretty finishing powder.

Lastly, I picked up the Wet n Wild Megalast eyeshadow primer, which I’ve been using quite a bit.
