MAC Snowball

Another year, another stunning MAC holiday collection. The collection this year is called the Snowball collection, and it has the most beautiful gold packaging and the powder products are embossed with snowflakes. So pretty!

For once I decided to buy on of the single eye shadows in the collection, because look how beautiful it is! It’s an Extra Dimension eye shadow in the shade Stylishly Merry which is described as a gold shimmer, but it has a stunning pink shift to it. It is very shimmery indeed and had quite a bit of fallout, but it looked beautiful. I think I’ll try it with Fix+ next time to see if that prevents the fallout.

I just had to have one of the Impalpable Glare powders/opalescent face powders, and I chose the gold one called Happy Go Dazzingly. It’s a super pretty, wearable gold shade, and the pigmentation is very nice. It’s not the most blinding highlighter in the world, but it looks beautiful on the skin.

And of course I had to get one of the lipsticks. I picked up the shade Shimmer & Spice which is described as a dusty rose with shimmer, and it is gorgeous! It has a frost finish, so it’s a little sheer, but if you fill in your lips with a lipliner and put this on top, you’ll get the most stunning shimmery lip.

Princess Cut + The Saharan

I’ve been wanting the Jeffree Star Skin Frost in Princess Cut ever since it came out, and when Beautybay.com had a Jeffree Star Cosmetics sale a little while back, it was the perfect reason for me to finally buy it. Beautybay.com also recently started carying the brand Juvia’s Place, and I’ve heard so many good things about Juvia’s Place eye shadows, so I decided to treat myself to one of their eye shadow palettes. I chose The Saharan palette, which is the perfect autumn/winter palette, and I’ll be making a ‘first impressions’ post on it soon.

Backup + 40 % off lipsticks

After a little over three years, I’ve almost used up my MAC Pro Longwear Paint Pot in Painterly, and since it is my absolute favourite eye shadow base/primer, I needed a backup. When I went onto MAC’s webshop to buy one, I saw that there was 40 % off on ‘goodbyes’ (products that is about to be discontinued I guess), so I picked up two more lipsticks from the Colour Rocker collection (I also have these three shades). I’ve been regretting not getting the shade Evening Buzz (the purple shade) when the collection first came out, so this was the perfect opportunity to finally add it to my collection. I also purchased the shade Digging it, because I didn’t have a dark brown lipstick, and it looked like such a nice shade of brown.

Jeffree Star Chrome Summer Collection

In the beginning of August, I couldn’t resist the Jeffree Star Chrome Summer Collection any longer. I only purchased the two liquid lipsticks I wanted the most which are Calabasas and You. Better. Work. Calabasas is the pinky/rosy version of I’m Shook (which is one of my favourites), and it’s such a beautiful and very wearable colour. You. Better. Work. is exactly the kind of purple I’ve been wishing that Jeffree would make. It’s my favourite kind of purple, and it’s so gorgeous! He has a sale on his web page and on Beauty Bay right now if you should be interested in these shades or any other shades.

Haul of twos

I’ve accumulated some clothes and shoes over the past month, so I thought I would haul them. As you can see, I’ve got two tops, two pairs of socks, and two pairs of shoes to show you. The Friends T-shirt was a birthday present from one of my sisters. Friends is our favourite TV series and I really wanted a Friends themed T-shirt, so she bought this one for me when she was in England a couple of months ago. The second top is from H&M, and I found it on sale. I love the ruffled sleeves and the stripes. It’s just a very fun top. I’ve also bought another pair of glitter socks (light pink) and another pair of fishnet socks (black). I’ve mentioned it before, but I love cute or fun socks; they add a little extra something to an outfit. I’m very excited about both pairs of shoes. Especially the gingham loafers from River Island. I’d been wanting them for three months before I finally decided to buy them, and I love them! The purple glitter heels are from H&M, and they remind me of ’70s disco. I wore them are a party last weekend, and they were so comfortable and a nice pop of colour.

Four from H&M

In mid-July I went shopping with my sisters and cousins, and I bought these four pieces at H&M. I’d been looking for an affordable oversized denim jacket, and I found just that. I’ve been wearing it so much; it just works with every outfit. I don’t buy dresses very often anymore, but I thought this black one with the white print was really pretty. I love the high neck, and I know the picture doesn’t show it properly, but it has really pretty wide sleeves. I had been looking at the mint green velvet trousers for ages, so I was really excited to find them on sale, but my sister found them first, and there was only one pair in our size. She bought them, but to my luck she found another pair of velvet trousers that she liked better, so I bought the mint green ones from her. Lastly, I had also been looking at the boots for a while, and when I found them one sale (they were extremely cheap), I had to buy them. I don’t have any other shoes in that colour, and I’m really excited to style them.

MAC limited edition summer collections

As you might have noticed, I’m having a break from buying make-up, but of course I had to get a few products from the latest limited edition collections from MAC.

I bought a blusher and a lipstick from the Steve J & Yoni P collection. The blusher is in the shade Sugar or Syrup and it’s a warm pink with a satin finish. It’s so pretty and great for summer.

The lipstick is called A Killing Smile, and it’s a matte bright pinky red. It’s a gorgeous colour, and how cute is the packaging!

Lastly, I got a lipstick from this year’s main summer collection called Fruity Juicy. It’s in the shade Sí, Sí, Me!, which is a beautiful berry colour, and it has a satin finish. All three products are beautiful and perfect for hot summer weather.

All pink everything

My obsession with everything pink is still going strong, so a little while ago I bought these pink items on Asos. I couldn’t resist the T-shirt; it’s pink and it’s velvet (another obsession of mine). It’s a bit cropped and so cute. I’ve been wanting a pair of pink sneakers for such a long time, and now I finally got some. They’re from Bershka and I love the baby pink colour. Lastly, I bought some socks. I really like fun and cute socks, and I think they can add some quirkiness to an outfit. I been wanting to try out the fishnet trend, but instead of getting some black ones, I decided to get some bright pink ones. I wore them last week and I really liked them. The flamingo socks and palm tree socks come as a set, and I think the prints and colours are really pretty.

Jeffree Star x Manny MUA

DSC_2560DSC_2551DSC_2553DSC_2557

Jeffree Star and Manny MUA are two of my favourite beauty youtubers, so I was very excited about this limited edition collaboration. I decided to get the Skin Frost and one of the two Velour liquid lipsticks. The Skin Frost is called Eclipse and is a beautiful peachy, champagne colour. The lipstick is called I’m Shook and is a muted corally red (it’s really hard to describe). Both products are absolutely stunning, and the matte black and holographic packaging is amazing!

Urban Decay Heavy Metal glitter eyeliner

When you are doing your make-up for a night out, it’s nice to do a little extra, and glitter is a great way of doing that. The thing about loose glitter is that it goes everywhere, and as much as I love glitter, I don’t want it all over my face. I had seen several youtubers use the Urban Decay Heavy Metal glitter eyeliners on their eyelids, and it looked so quick and easy, so I decided to try it out. I bought the silver one which is called Glam Rock, and it works perfectly. I really want the rest of the colours now!
