I have a small MAC haul to share with you today. Everything was on sale and I also got a free gift with my purchase.
This is the MAC Pearlescence Eyeshadow x12 palette, and even though it’s mainly a neutral palette it has some pops of colour.
You know I love MAC lipsticks, so I picked up one from a Valentine’s Day collection and one from the Richard Quinn collection. The one from the Valentine’s Day collection is in the shade Relentlessly Red, which is a permanent shade, but I’ve always wanted to try it, and the one from the Richard Quinn collection is in the shade Rose Daydream.
This is the content of the gift I received. It contains a make-up bag, two samples (Fix+ and Strobe Cream), an Extra Dimension blush in Faux Sure!, and a Studio Moisture cream. I’m excited to try both the blush and the cream.
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. Another look with that crease liner (maybe that’s what I should call it) that I like so much and maybe one too many freckles:)

I have a collective Beauty Bay haul to share with you today. It’s not the biggest haul ever, but I think I picked up some pretty good things.
Let’s begin with a mixed selection of products. I love the Jeffree Star Cosmetics Liquid Star Shadows, so I picked up another shade. This shade is from the Star Wedding collection and it’s called Favorite Frosting. I also got the Made By Mitchell Blursh Lights liquid highlighter in Drip Drip, which I’ve seen people use on the eyes, and it looked so pretty, so I’m going to try that. And I really like the Lethal Cosmetics Magnetic face powder blushers, so I got this pretty peachy pink shade called Blossom. I already had the case lying around.
I also picked up my first products from Half Magic. I got two of the Cheek Fluff Soft Blur blushes in Pink Mushroom and Magic Brownie, and they’re so nice. I also got the Light Trap Duochrome glow powder in Enter The Glow, which is just as nice and super pretty.
In the spring I loved trying out new face palettes, and I was very intrigued by the By BEAUTY BAY face palette in First Light. I think the choices of shades are great, and you can use it with practically any make-up look.
I’ve been wanting to try the about-face Cheek Freak Blush Balms ever since I first saw them, and I picked up several shades, but one of my parcels never arrived. At least I got this stunning purple shade in Score.
I was just as excited to get my hands on the about-face Cherry Pick Lip Color Butters, and I picked up the shades Orange Daze, Dragonfruit Fusion, and Pamblemousse. I’m really enjoying these so far.
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. As I wrote in my outfit post, I really wanted to wear this blue lipstick, so I tried to do a matching eye look using cream eyeshadows, but sadly they creased a lot. I like the blue shades though.

I have a combined Catrice and Essence Disney haul to share with you today. The Catrice products are The Jungle Book themed and the Essence products are The Lion King themed. Let’s begin with the Catrice stuff.
Both collections include three eyeshadow palettes. The Catrice The Jungle Book palettes are called 010 Bare Necessities, 020 Stay In The Jungle, and 030 Mother Nature’s Recipe. The all look really pretty.
This is the face palette in 010 Tales About The Jungle. I think the packaging and details of this collection are stunning!
The collection also came with two blush sticks in the shades 010 An Elephant Never Forgets and 020 Big Bear Hugs. So cute, right?!
The duo-chrome eye pencils in 010 Python and 020 Trust In Me are the most unique products in the collection, and they are really fun and pretty.
I also got this set that came with a make-up bag, which I’ve already used a lot, a face toner, a face primer, a Pure Volume mascara waterproof, and a lip balm in 010 Go With The Flow.
I also picked up the other two lip balms in 020 Cross My Heart and 030 Spirit.
The last item I got from the Catrice The Jungle Book collection is the sculpting brush. Let’s move on to the Essence The Lion King collection.
The three The Lion King eyeshadow palettes are called 01 Circle of Life, 02 Strong From Sunrise To Sunset, and 03 Dream Big, Little One.
These maxi blushes in 01 Remember Who You Are and 02 Can You Feel The Love Tonight? are super cute.
The Lion King collection also included two swirl lipglosses in 01 Calm Surrender and 02 The Lion Sleeps Tonight. They look super pretty. I almost don’t want to ruin the swirl.
I love Essence gel nail colours and The Lion King collection came with two shades; 01 Roar and 02 Courageous.
The last item I bought from the Essence The Lion King collection was the eyeshadow brush. I usually really like both Essence and Catrice brushes.
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I’m wearing the Cosmic Brushes Muse palette on my eyes, and it’s just as great and just as pretty as the Serenity palette and the Royal Rose palette.

Back in March Colourpop had a 30% off sitewide sale, so I obviously had to take advantage of that. I also picked up a handful of other products after the sale, so I decided to put them all into one big haul. Let’s begin with the sale stuff.
I picked up a bunch of palettes. First off, we have the Play It Jewel palette, which is one of the mega palettes. I’m wearing it on my eyes here.
The next palette I got is the Fade Into Hue palette. How pretty is this rainbow palette?!
The Not A Box of Chocolates palette is not my typical kind of palette, but I’d heard good things about it and thought I would give it a try.
This is the Sage The Day palette, which has a beautiful green and neutral colour story.
I picked up five of the monochromatic 9-pan palettes; the Lilac You A Lot, the Orchid You Not, the Ooh La La!, the Uh-Huh Honey, and the Just My Luck.
Here are what the palettes look like. My favourite look I’ve done with one of these palettes so far is the look I did with the Just My Luck palette.
Let’s move on to face products for a moment. I decided to try their new at the time single pressed powder face products and created this custom face palette. I got the lightest bronzer in the shade Avila Beach, three blushes in the shades Why Hello, Big Reveal, and Flamingo, and two highlighters in the shades Cold One and Easy Livin’. This is a very nice travel palette.
I also bought two more heart-shaped pressed powder blushes in Kiss ‘N Tell and Text Me.
My favourite Colourpop products are probably the Super Shock cheek products. This time around I picked up five highlighters, two blushes, and a bronzer. The shades are (from top left corner to bottom right corner) Felicity, Spellbound, Candy Floss, Lunch Money, Flexitarian, Between The Sheets, Prenup, and Get Sandy.
I also purchased this Winx Club Trix Glow Lite Stix set, which comes with the three shades Icy, Darcy, and Stormy. These highlighter sticks are really fun and easy to use.
And now some lip products. My favourite lip product from Colourpop is the Glowing Lip, so I purchased the Glow With It Glowing Lip set, which includes 9 beautiful shades.
For the lips I also got the Disney Designer Collection Lux liquid lip in Flynn.
Then I bought two products from the Pretty Fresh line; the Pretty Fresh tinted moisturizer in Fair 4N and the Pretty Fresh hydrating setting mist. The tinted moisturizer is not the right shade for me, so I don’t know if I like the formula or not, but I love the setting mist.
And now the products I purchased a little later, when the sale was over. I really wanted to buy both the Blue Velvet palette and the Panoramic face & eye gloss in the sale, but they were out of stock. I still haven’t tried the face & eye gloss, but I love the Blue Velvet palette. I’m wearing is here.
Lastly, I picked up a bunch of products from the The Legend of Korra collection, and I’m actually in the middle of watching the show for the first time. I got the palette, the Super Shock highligher, and the four chrome liquid shadows, which are named after the four elements.
Here’s a closer look at the palette and the highlighter called Spirit Wilds. The products in this collection are super pretty. I’m wearing many of them here.
