Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. As you can probably tell, this is not what my make-up looked like right after application. I forgot to take pictures in the morning when my make-up was fresh, so instead I took these pictures after 7-8 hours of wear with no touch ups. The eyeshadow has creased a bit, but I have hooded eyelids, so that’s no surprise, and my lipstick has worn of a little bit, but I really don’t think it’s that bad. My skin was looking shiny, but I wasn’t wearing the most mattifying and long-wearing powder that day, so it was no surprise either. All in all, I think my make-up could have looked worse.

I have a collective Zalando haul to share with you today. Most of the things in this all were on sale. Let’s get started.
First up, dresses. I picked up these two button up dressed from Monki in a sale, and I’ve worn both of them several times already.
I also picked up this skirt from Monki, which has these beautiful bright colours.
The last item I got from Monki is this fun blue oversized T-shirt. I’ve been loving an oversized T-shirt lately, especially paired with flared trousers.
I really like the tights from the brand Calzedonia, and I love that they come in so many different colours. I picked up a new red pair in a bigger size.
The only pair of shoes in this haul are these pink platform boots from Even&Odd. I’m so excited to wear these this autumn and winter.
Lastly, I picked up a handful of make-up products. I’d been wanting to try out the Danessa Myricks Beauty Yummy Skin Blurring Balm Powder for a while, so I picked up the shade Universal in a sale. Then I also got three products from Kiko Milano; the Silky Glow baked bronzer in 01 Warm Sienna, and two of the Green Me eyeliner & khols in 02 Into The Plum and 06 Green Gold.
Here are some closer looks at the first four products.
The very last two products, I purchased, were two lip products from the MAC Pearlescence collection. I got the lipstick in Mauve Over! and the lip pencil in Chicory.
Here’s the make-up I wore with my birthday outfit. It was my first time trying out eyeshadows from Unearthly Cosmetics, and I was not disappointed. All the shades performed so well.

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I don’t own a lot of Pat McGrath Labs palettes, but I got a very good deal on the Mothership VI palette, which had been on my wishlist for quite a while, so I had to go for it. I love how the eye look turned out. Pat McGrath Labs really does make great quality eyeshadows.
(Base: primer – NYX Plump Right Back serum & primer, foundation – Catrice Nude Drop Tinted Serum foundation (shade: 004N), concealers – Ole Henriksen Banana Bright+ Vitamin CC Stick in Banana + e.l.f.

I have a collective Colourpop haul to share with you today. The haul includes products from the Alice in Wonderland collection, the Lav_ish collection, and more.
Let’s begin with the pieces I picked up from the Alice in Wonderland collection. I had to have the Lost In Wonderland palette and the two pressed powder blushes in Oh Dear! and Silence!, and then I also picked up the Fourth Ray Alice in Wonderland Pure Madness lip mask, because the little mushroom was so cute, and I really love the lip mask from Avatar: The Last Airbender collection.
I think this is the entire Lav_ish collection, which is obviously right up my street, since I love purple so much. The collection consists of the Lav_ish palette, three Super Shock shadows in the shades Angelic, So Surreal and Social Bb, the Super Shock highlighter in Lav Dream, and two So Glassy lip glosses in Cyberspace and Purple Aura. I’m wearing a lot of the products here.
Now, on to some more eye products. I purchased two of the BFF mascaras, and they’re in the shades Brownie Points and Left on Red. I also picked up two of the BFF Crème gel liners, which is a liner formula I already like a lot. I got the shades Prance and Aglow. And then I got the Graphix Ink liner in Drama Free at a discount at the check-out.
I also decided to give the new formulated Shadow Stix a try. I picked the shades in Hey Bestie, Juicy Gossip, Friday Feels, and Plum Tart. I haven’t try the Plum Tart shade yet, but it’s a matte one, so I’m hoping it’s better than the other three (which are shimmery), because I wasn’t very impressed by those.
I love me some Super Shock products, so I picked up two blushes, a highlighter, and a shadow. The blush shades are Georgette and Birthday Suit, the highlighter is in the shade Hippo, and the Super Shock shadow is the shade Rooftop Cocktails.
As a free gift with purchase I got these three velvet scrunchies. I love a good scrunchie, and these are in very nice colours.
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. A colourful, almost all matte eye look, which is not something I wear very often. An all matte look I mean. Colourful looks I wear all the time.

Here’s the make-up I wore Friday August 4. I only used shadow sticks for my eye look, because I wanted to do a quick and easy look, but I don’t love how the eye look turned out. I think the lip is fun though.

I have an Asos haul to share with you today. I bought most of the things on sale, and there’s a bit of everything; clothes, shoes, accessories and make-up/beauty.
How fun are these jeans! They’re from a brand called Bailey Rose, and I just love the print and colours.
I’ve already posted a look with this dress from COLLUSION. It’s very cute.
These are some pretty high platform heels, and I don’t wear heels this high very often anymore, but these were just too pretty to pass on. They’re from Topshop btw.
This is the kind of heel I wear most often these days. These summery mules are from Monki.
When I saw these Crocs, I just knew I had to have them. I love the retro floral print, and the cute Jibbitz that came with the shoes.
From Crocs I also picked up these colourful flower Jibbitz which are decorating my pink Mega Crush sandals.
I love dinosaurs and thought these rings were cute. They’re a bit small though.
I wear headbands all the time, and both of these have been favourites ever since I got them. The purple one is from Y.A.S, and the white one is from True Decadence.
These hair clips are from DesignB, and I bought them to use, when I’m doing my make-up, but they’re not that great. I’ll just stick to my Minnie Mouse headband.
Let’s move on to make-up. I picked up two foundations from MAC; the Strobe Dewy Skin Tint in Light 1, and the Studio Fix Every-Wear All-Over face pen in NC13. None of these are my perfect foundation, but I haven’t used them that much, so maybe I’ll change my mind?
These three Charlotte Tilbury products I love. The Airbrush Brightening Flawless Finish powder in Fair/Medium is a great undereye powder, and the Hollywood Contour Wand in Fair/Medium and the Matte Beauty Blush Wand Pillow Talk in Dream Pop are just great cream cheek products.
I purchased quite a few things from Revolution. I got the Conceal & Define full coverage foundation in F0 to mixed in with other foundations, the IRL Filter Finish soft matte concealer in C2, the Healthy Glow Sculptor cream blush and bronzer in Forgive and Forget Pink from the XXRevolution line, two Lustre Wand shadow sticks in Euphoric Lilac and Sinful Green, and the Ceramide Lip Swirl lip gloss in Cherry Mauve.
From e.l.f. Cosmetics I picked up two more of the No Budge matte shadow sticks, which are some of my favourite shadow sticks. These are in the shades Groovy and Stellar. I also bought another shade of the Luminous Putty blushes. The shade is called St. Barts. And from Rimmel I wanted to try out the Wonder’ Cloud all-day wear soft shadow, and I picked the shade 01 Honey Drop.
Lastly, I got a back-up of my favourite moisturiser from Wishful, which is the Honey Whip Peptide one. I’ve also been wanting to try the Huda Beauty Cheeky Tint blush sticks for quite a while, so I bought the shade Proud Pink, which is super pretty.
