Collective haul (March 2025)

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.

Matas haul (February 2025)

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.

Collective MAC haul (February 2025)

I have a collective MAC haul to share with you today. It includes limited edition products, new at the time products, and some free gifts.

Let’s begin with the products I got from the MAC To The Future collection. I picked up the lip pencil in Hodgepodge, the Lustreglass lipstick in Rosy Thoughts, and the two Skinfinish cream blushes in Sonic and Ginger, Please!.

The lip pencil shade Hodgepodge is a released shade and I think the Rosy Thoughts lipstick shade is limited edition. I was most excited about the Skinfinish cream blushes, and they’re quite nice.

I also got the Luxe Luck Dazzleshadow liquid in Magic Scale on sale. The Luxe Luck collection launched in the beginning of the year, and I’m pretty sure it was their Lunar New Year collection. I’m quite impressed by this liquid eyeshadow formula. It lasted a very long time, and it didn’t crease.

I had to try the new at the time Strobe Beam liquid blushes, and I picked up the following three shades: Nitelite, Magic Aura, and Good Vibes. These are very pretty, glowy blushes.

Lastly, I got two gifts with my purchases. The first gift included a mini MACStack mascara, a Fix+ Original (30 ml), and a Prep+Prime Lip. I love all three of these products, so this was a great gift. The second gift included a Lipglass clear, an Extended Play Giga Black Lash mascara, and a 252S large shader brush. Also a great gift with purchase.

Indie make-up haul (February 2025)

I have an indie make-up haul to share with you. I made my first order ever from Nomad Cosmetics, and I also picked up some things from Arttitude Cosmetics, Oden’s Eye, and from the German website Purish.

I’d been wanting to try out Nomad Cosmetics eyeshadow palettes for so long, but it wasn’t until earlier this year that I discovered that they have a European warehouse (as far as I understand) that ships to Europe. So I purchased four palettes. The Chamonix Après-Ski intense color palette was new at the time, and it was the palette that made me look into shipping details. The packaging of this palette, and of Nomad Cosmetics palettes in general, is beautiful, and the colour story is right up my alley. I used the palette here.

I’m pretty sure that the Fuji Five Lakes intense color palette launched last year, and I remember thinking that it looked stunning. The packaging on this palette is next level, and the colour story is so fun and different, and I’ve created some beautiful looks with it (for example this one).

I mainly purchased the Haunted Europe intense color palette, because it’s Europe themed and I’d heard many beauty creators talk about how much they enjoyed this palette. It’s a very autumnal palette, and I created this yummy look with it.

The last Nomad Cosmetics palette I picked up was the Monteverde Cloud Forest intense color palette, which I got on sale, and it’s still on sale (Nomad Cosmetics also has a 20% off site wide sale going on right now). This palette is just so fun and colourful, and I’ve used it several times. I created this eye look with it.

I made an order from Arttitude Cosmetics when they had 20% off a lot of products back in February. However, I don’t think I’ll make an order from their website again, because I had to pay some extra fees that I wasn’t expecting. I’d rather wait for Monolith to stock their releases then. Anyways, I did pick up three palettes at the time the Abscission palette being the first one. I’d been wanting this palette for a long time, and so far it hasn’t disappointed. I wore it here, and I loved the look.

I’d also had the Metamorph palette on my wishlist, and this colour story is just so beautiful. I loved this look that I created with this palette. So colourful and fun!

The last Arttitude Cosmetics palette I got was the Vintage Neutrals. I don’t know if I would call these neutrals, but I think it’s a really pretty colour story that you can create lots of different looks with. I created this look with it.

The only thing I purchased from Oden’s Eye was the Oden’s Eye x Morgan Turner Love Language palette. I love purples and pinks, and this was a lovely Valentine’s Day release. I wore it here.

From the Purish website I picked these three items. Lethal Cosmetics added the Avatar the Last Airbender Yue glitter gel to the Avatar the Last Airbender collection later on, so I picked that up. And my original Lethal Cosmetics Avatar the Last Airbender White Lotus highlighter arrived broken, so I decided to get a new and hopefully intact one, and I was happy to see that it was in fact intact. And lastly, I picked up the Lethal Cosmetics Dexter Luminol liquid highlighter, because I thought it look so pretty. All of these Lethal Cosmetics products were on sale.

Collective haul – beauty (February 2025)

I have a big collective beauty haul to share with you today. I’ve purchased these products from lots of different places, so they won’t be divided into categories. I’ll just show them based on where are got them from.

I picked up the Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High mascara in Plum Twilight and the MAC Colour Excess Gel pencil eye liner in Perpetual Shock! in a Zalando sale. I love these formulas.

In a Sephora sale I bought the Makeup By Mario Ethereal Eyes Moonlight palette and the Fenty Skin Plush Puddin’ lip mask in Salted Caramel. I’d been wanting to try Makeup By Mario eyeshadows, and I got the Ethereal Eyes Moonlight palette at a really good price. I’m wearing it on my eyes here.

The Fenty Beauty Cheeks Suede powder blushes finally came to Danish retailers, so I picked up two of the shimmer shades; Wattabrat 08 and Tutu Turnt 09. They’re really pretty, and I’ve picked up a few more shades since. I also got the Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb Stix shimmer in Hot Chocolit 03.

The next set of products were purchased at Magasin. I got the Rare Beauty Soft Pinch mini cheek & lip set, which includes a dewy liquid blush in Worth and a tinted lip oil in Beloved. I love both of these formulas, and I especially like the tinted lip oil shade.

I also picked up the KVD Beauty Lock It pore-refining primer and two of the KVD Beauty Tattoo pencil liners in the shades Canvas Beige and Radium Green. The primer is nice, but the liners are horrible! I especially wanted the green shade to work so bad, but these liners are so stiff and they won’t show up in the waterline.

I bought the next 7 items from a German website called Purish. I featured the Nabla Freckle Maker in my latest 5 favourites post, so I clearly enjoy that one. And the Essence line n’ STAIN! Tattoo liner in 03 Make A Mauve is a fun product.

The Catrice Glass Like dewy lip tints are so lovely! I picked up the shades 020 Look At Me! and 050 Regrets? Always!.

From Catrice I also got the Blushin’ Charm multi stick in 040 Sparkle Lover, the Melted Sun liquid bronzer in 005 Tan Lines, and the Instant Bright serum concealer in 002N. My favourite of the three so far is the liquid bronzer.

Lastly, I made another Sephora order for these four beautiful blushes. The Huda Beauty Blush Filters are some of my favourite liquid blushes, and I really wanted these two new shades called Intense Guava and Sunset Lychee. I also really wanted to try the new at the time Sephora Collection Colorful Blush Glazes, and I chose the shades 01 Pink Sunset and 02 Morning Blaze. So pretty, right?!

Monolith haul (February 2025)

I have a Monolith haul to share with you today. It includes five eyeshadow palettes and four lipsticks. Let’s begin with the palettes.

Angelica Nyqvist, who’s one of my favourite beauty creators, is behind Singe Beauty, and she loves colourful eyeshadows just like I do, so I was very excited to get my hands on her first eyeshadow palette, Galactic Visitor.

I’m not sure why I was drawn to the Ensley Reign Cosmetics Light in Your Eyes palette, since it’s a neutral leaning palette, but I would say that it’s a neutral palette with a twist, and it is really pretty.

I really enjoy Gourmande Girls’ colour stories and formulas, and the Bitten palette is beautiful. I wore it on my eyes here and loved the look.

Another brand who’s colour stories and formulas I love is Fantasy Cosmetica, and how pretty is the Monk palette?!

I love original Coca-Cola, and even though I had heard that this palette wasn’t one of the great quality palettes from Glamlite, I still bought it for the theme. I agree that it isn’t the best palette quality wise from Glamlite, but I still thought the look I created with it turned out nice.

You have seen me wear some of the Unearthly Cosmetics Menacing Metals lipsticks in recent posts, and I really like them. I picked up the shades Bloodstone, Sire, Void, and Ancient from the first launch, and I may or may not have picked up some of the spring shades as well:)

Colourpop haul –Twilight New Moon and more (January 2025)

I have a Colourpop haul to share with you today. This haul includes the items I picked up from the Twilight New Moon collection plus a handful of other products.

Of course, I had to pick up the Twilight New Moon palette and the two Super Shock shadows included in the collection. The palette is a super pretty warm toned palette (I wore it here), and the Super Shock shadows came as a set with two shades called The Volturi and We Won’t Bite.

I also got all of the lip products from the collection, which is an Ultra Glossy Lip in Runs With Vampires, and the two lip sets including a Lippie pencil and a Power Pout lipstick. The red set comes with a Lippie pencil in Vampire Laws and a Power Pout lipstick in Vampire Royalty, and the brown lip set comes with a Lippie pencil in Hello Biceps and a Power Pout lipstick in Jake.

Besides the products from the Twilight New Moon collection, I also picked up the new at the time Pretty Fresh Lock It In 16HR makeup setting spray and the Pretty Fresh Set It Up primer. I still haven’t tried the setting spray, but I really like the primer.

I was also excited to get my hands on the Liquid Hi-Lite dewy liquid highlighters, which had launch very late last year, I think. I picked up two of the shades; Sugar Donut and Pink Pony.

Lastly, I got the Star Wars palette and the Blotted Lip in Purr on sale. I’ve never watched Star Wars, but I thought the palette looked pretty, and I thought the red Blotted Lip shade looked nice as well.

Beauty Bay haul – sale or 20% off (January 2025)

I have a collective Beauty Bay haul to share with you today. I made two orders back in January and everything was 20% off or otherwise discounted.

I’d been wanting to try a Viseart eyeshadow palette for so long, so I finally decided to pick one up. I chose the Violette ÉNTENDU palette, because I love purples. It’s not a bad palette, the shimmers are just underwhelming to me. If you’re not into intense, indie shimmers, you might like the Viseart shimmers. I’m wearing this palette on my eyes here.

I used to buy every Jeffree Star Cosmetics palette and collection in general, but I’m not as interested in the brand anymore. I still like some of the products including the eyeshadows, so I did end up getting the Gold Blooded artistry palette. I did a look with it here, and I think the look turned out very pretty.

By BEAUTY BAY released two palettes for the holidays in the end of last year. I picked up the Celestial Charms 20 colour palette back then, but earlier this year I decided to get the Mini Charms 9 colour palette as well. It’s an all shimmer palette, and it’s actually very nice.

And speaking of By BEAUTY BAY, I also had to have their Daydreamer 20 colour palette, which was this year’s Valentine’s Day release from the brand.

I finally decided to try out the Nimya Glowification highlighters as well. In my first order I got the shade Pink Outside The Box.

And in my second order, I picked up another shade of the Nimya Glowification highlighters, and it’s called Beam, Bam, Boom!. From Nimya I also bought the Discophere Glitter Lip Topper in Pink In Bio, and then I got the Trixie Cosmetics Stix cream bronzer in Sunkissed and the Trixie Cosmetics Stix cream blush in Pumpkin. Lastly, I purchased two more shades of the Glisten Cosmetics Spectra Lash mascaras; I got Orange Red and Yellow.

Collective haul – part 2 (January 2025)

This is part 2 of my huge collective haul from January. This part is all about make-up and beauty products. Let’s begin with the products I picked up from Lyko.

I think this Danessa Myricks Beauty Lightwork VI Freedom palette is absolutely stunning, but so expensive, so when I found it on sale for a pretty good price, I took the plunge and got it.

I also got this Danessa Myricks Beauty Yummy Skin 4 Ever Flushes Kit, which includes two full size Yummy Skin Blurring Balm Powder Flushed in the shades Dancing Queen and Spiced Latte and two minis in the shade Red Velvet and Jubilee. I really like this blush formula.

And speaking of blushes, I’d been wanting to try both the Rose Inc Blush Divine radiant lip & cheek color and the Catrice Blush Affair cream & powder palette, so I picked up the shades Hibiscus (Rose Inc) and 010 Stunning Strawberry (Catrice).

We’re not done with blushes yet, because I had been waiting for the Makeup By Mario Soft Pop plumping blush veil shade extension, so I could pick up the shades Strawberry Sunset and Papaya Pop. I kind of want the other shades as well. I also got two of the new shades of the MoistureGlow plumping lip serums; Cherry Glow and Tangerine Glow.

Now let’s move on to the products I got from Magasin (Danish department store). I bought the L’Oréal Lumi Le Liquid Blush in 625 Glowy Gold Pink, the MAC Face Palette x4: Luxe Luck, and the MAC Turquatic fragrance 20 ml. They were all 20% off.

I bought the rom&nd Better Than Cheek blushes in S01 Mango Chip and S02 Lychee Chip and the L’Oréal Lumi Le Glow highlighter stick in 630 Glowy Créme Chic from Matas (Danish drugstore). The blushes are very disappointing, but the highlighter stick in pretty.

Lastly, I placed an order from Cosmic Brushes/Beauty and got the The Lovers palette and an eye brush set.

Collective haul – part 1 (January 2025)

I have a huge collective haul from January this year, and I’m going to divide it into two parts. This first part includes both clothes, shoes, accessories, and beauty, whereas the second part is all beauty products.

I picked up these red wide leg trousers on sale at H&M. I’m actually wearing them today.

I love a colourful, floral midi skirt or dress. The skirt and the purple dress are both from the brand YAS, which is a brand I really like, and the green dress is from Asos Design.

You know I love a Disney print and this burgundy oversized T-shirt with Mickey and Minnie on it is just a nice basic from Asos Design.

Apparently, I managed to buy two different pairs of leopard print boots. The slouchy heeled ones are from H&M, and the flat ones are from Asos Design.

I know Christmas is far away, but I can always use some more Christmas themed jewellery like these earrings from Accessorize.

Let’s move on to make-up. I picked up these three products from e.l.f. Cosmetics; the Halo Glow Powder Filter pressed powder in Fair Neutral Cool, the Camo liquid bronzer & contour in Fair/Light, and the Camo liquid blush in Bold-Faced Lilac. I really like all three of these.

Here’s a little random selection of products, I picked up back in January; the MAC Glow Play Tendertalk lip balm in Trick (love these tinted lip balms), the e.l.f. Cosmetics Glow Reviver glimmer lip oil in Chocoluxe, and the Huda Beauty Liquid Blush Filter in Ube Cream (one of my favourite liquid blush formulas).

I got all of the last items in this haul from Sephora. This is the Pat McGrath Labs Luminous Legends mega eye shadow palette, which was their holiday palette from 2024. I got it on sale.

I wanted to own something from the R.E.M. Beauty Wicked collection after watching the film, so I got the Tulip Field lipstick in Munchkin Musk.

I also purchased two of the new at the time Natasha Denona Hy-Blush cloudy cream cheek duos in the shades Sweet Cheeks and Flustered, and they’re very pretty. And as I mentioned I love the Huda Beauty Liquid Blush Filters, so I got another shade. This is the shade Coco Loco from the Icy Nude collection, which is a beautiful deep red, when you blend it out.

Lastly, I caved and got the KAYALI Yum Boujee Marshmellow 81 eau de parfum (10 ml). KAYALI is my favourite perfume brand, and even though this sweet scent is my favourite from the brand I still like it.
