Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I wanted to create another eye look with the Cosmic Brushes Undergrowth palette, and man, those eyeshadows are pigmented!

I have a collective haul to share with you today. It includes beauty, one piece of clothing, and a bunch of shoes. Let’s begin with the beauty bits.
I purchased two of the limited edition summer scents from Sol de Janeiro; Dança Mística and Água Mística. Dança Mística is by far my favourite. It might even be my favourite Sol de Janeiro scent that I own, and I own quite a lot of them. Some of the notes are purple fig, champagne accord, lily of the valley, warm vanilla, and sandalwood. It’s really unique, but so good. More people would probably like Água Mística, which has notes like neroli water, tangerine, white pineapple, peony, and salty skin accord. I don’t like the pineapple, which is strong to my nose, but if you like a fresh, tropical scent, you would probably like Água Mística.
I decided to try the TirTir Mask Fit Aura mini cushion foundation in 13N Fair Ivory, but even though this shade works for me in the red version, I think it’s a little light on me in this aura version.
I love the NYX Buttermelt highlighters. I got the shades 15 U Butta Work, 20 Butta Mint, and 40 No 1 Butta. They’re so pretty, and I may or may not have picked up a couple more shades since:)
Here’s a couple other make-up bits, I picked up. I’d been wanting to try the Milk Makeup Hydro Grip gel tint, so I picked up shade 2 in a sale, and I love it! It’s such a good skin tint. I also really enjoy the Fenty Beauty Suede powder blushes, so I got another shimmer shade called Bubbleband$ 11.
Speaking of Fenty Beauty, I really wanted to get my hands on the Hot Cheeks highlighting blushes in Cherry Pie’d and Cherry Pop, and they’re so pretty.
The only piece of clothing in this haul is this stripy skirt from Mango, which I got on sale. Now, let’s move on to shoes.
You know I have an obsession with Crocs, and I just fell in love with these Mary Janes the second I saw them. And I love this bright red colour.
I also picked up these classic Crocs with floral cut-outs in a cute pale green colour, and I’ve worn them quite a bit this summer.
And the last pair of Crocs in this haul is this pair of Sirens in the dark purple colour. They’re just so good!
Oh, and I also picked this 5 pc of bow Jibbitz.
I don’t know if I’m ever actually going to wear these boots, but they’re just so fun. They’re from the Koi Footwear x The Rocky Horror Picture Show collection. I mean, just look at that lipstick heel!
On the contrary, here’s a pair of boots I think I’ll get a lot of use out of. These are the Jeffrey Campbell Prepster boots, and they’re the boot version of my beloved pastel loafers from Jeffrey Campbell.
Lastly, I got two pairs of pretty kitten heels. The purple suede ones are from Alma en Pena, and the dark blue ones with the flowers are from Blue by Betsey Johnson, and I wore those at my cousin’s wedding back in June.
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. This is what colourful neutral or neutral colourful make-up dreams are made of according to me. It’s just such a pretty and wearable, yet not boring look.

I have a Colourpop haul to share with you today. I picked up some items in a 25% off sitewide sale, and I also picked up the entire Toy Story collection.
I thought I would try out one of the multichrome Shadow Stix from the Twilight New Moon collection and picked up the shade It’s Always Been Him. It’s really pretty. I also wanted to try one of the shimmery So Juicy plumping gloss balms, which weren’t on sale. I got the shade Cyberstar, which I’ve used several times.
When the Bratz collection originally launched, I picked up the Jade lip set, but I also really liked the look of the Cloe set. It includes a Lippie pencil and a Lippie Stix both in the shade Angel.
I love the BFF Crème gel liners, so I got two more shades in the sale; Peach Fuzz and Crystal Crush.
The Colourpop Super Shock highlighter is one of my favourite highlighter formulas, so I purchased two shades I was missing from my collection; Honeymoon and Monster.
I’ve already mentioned the Pretty Fresh tinted foundation balm in a 5 favourites post, and I picked up two shades, Fair 1 and Fair 3, and I’ve been using them together. This is such a good foundation stick.
I love when Colourpop does Disney collabs, and the Toy Story collection is really cute. This is the Toys Are Here palette, and I wore it on my eyes here.
The Toy Story collection also included a set of three Jelly Much shadows in the shades Hamm It Up, Beary Good Vibes, and It’s Forky!.
I don’t love the volumizing mascara formula from Colourpop, but this colour Roar is fun though.
I really like the Ultra Glossy Lips from Colourpop, and aren’t these Toy Story ones just cute?! They’re called (from left to right) Favorite Deputy, Buzzin’ About, Peep This, and Yeehaw!.
The last product in the Toy Story collection was The Chosen One sour candy lip mask. I really enjoy the lip masks from Colourpop and a sour candy scent sounds delicious.
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I used the GlossGods Cosmetics First Gal on Venus palette to create this beautiful, warm eye look, and I was reimpressed (if that’s a word) by the quality. I also love the shimmery dark brown lip.

I have an indie make-up haul to share with you today. I purchased one palette from Nomad Cosmetics, and the rest I got from Monolith.
Nomad Cosmetics is a new brand to me this year, and I’ve been really enjoying their palettes, so when I saw the new launch at the time, the Fairy Tale Europe intense color & chrome palette, I just had to have it. Being from Europe, I know of all of these fairy tales, and I love the colourful shimmers in this palette. The neutral mattes are a bit boring to me though, but I did create this pretty look with the palette.
Another brand whose eyeshadows I’ve been enjoying is Arttitude Cosmetics. This is the Ink & Roses palette, and I think it’s such a great colour story. I wore it on my eyes here.
Blend Bunny Cosmetics create great eyeshadows as well, and the Beauty Below palette is just so dark and moody and stunning. I did manage to create a not-so-dark look with the palette though.
The last items in this haul are from Simply Posh Cosmetics. I’d been kicking myself for not getting the original Cozy Cabin palette, so when it came back, I picked it up immediately. I love a holiday themed palette, and this colour story is just so yummy. I created this look with it.
I also had to get the Snow Angel palette from Simply Posh Cosmetics, because I love cool tones and I love pastels. This whole palette has a bit of a grey undertone to it, which might also be visible in this look I did with it.
Lastly, I picked up two liquid blushes from Simply Posh Cosmetics, which launched at the same time as the Snow Angel palette. The shades are called Frosty and Berry Cold.
