Matas 25% off make-up haul (December 2023)

I have a make-up haul to share with you today. I purchased these items from the Danish “drugstore” Matas in a 25% off sale. Matas has a lot of high end brands as well as affordable/drugstore make-up.

I picked up another shade of the Fenty Beauty Cheeks Out Freestyle cream blushes. It’s called Big Melons 12, and it’s a lovely bright, summery shade. I also got another shade of the Fenty Beauty Match Stix contour skinsticks. It’s in the shade Amber, and I prefer this shade over Soft Amber.

I also purchased another shade of the bareMinerals Gen Nude highlighting blushes. It’s in the shade Pink Glow. And then I wanted to try out the brand BeautyAct and picked up their Iconic face kit in Light/Medium, which includes a face powder, a highlighter, a blush, and a bronzer.

Lastly, I got some lip products. I bought another shade of the Rimmel Kind & Free tinted lip balms, which I really like. This one is in the shade 005 Turbo Red. I also picked up the Essence Juicy Bomb lip oil set, which includes the following five lip oils: 01 Coconut Crush, 02 Strawberry Star, 03 Mandarin Miracle, 04 Mint Magic, and 05 Cherry Cheer.

Lost in love

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. Since it was Valentine’s Day, I thought it was fitting to use a handful of products from the Colourpop Lost in Love Valentine’s Day collection. I think the look turned out very pretty and very much on theme.

Collective Indie make-up haul (December 2023)

I have a collective Indie make-up haul to share with you today. I purchased these products throughout December 2023, and I got them from Monolith and Purish.

I’d been wanting the Blend Bunny Cosmetics Juicy Cheeks face palette for quite a while, and I’m so glad I bought it, because these blush shades are stunning! If you like colourful, pigmented blushes this is the palette for you.

I picked up two palettes from Bellabeautébar. The first one is the Pastel Garden palette, which I got on sale. I really enjoy the Bellabeautébar formula, and this palette has every pastel shade under the sun. I’m wearing it on my eyes here.

This is the Bellabeautébar Bejeweled palette, and it is absolutely gorgeous! I created one of my favourite eye looks I’ve done this year so far with this palette. I think it would be fun to use this palette together with the Pastel Garden palette.

I’ve been loving Unearthly Cosmetics lately as well, and the Don’t Be Jelly palette has some beautiful shimmers. The colour story is quite unique, and I haven’t played with this palette yet, because I have to figure out what kind of look to create with it.

The Whats Up Beauty Dragon Eye palette has the most incredible packaging! The colour story is a bit more muted, but pretty nonetheless, and I loved the look I created with this palette.

It’s not very often that I wear the same palette twice within a week, but that’s what I did with the Wicked Widow Beauty Resurrection palette. It’s like a rainbow palette with a twist, and I love it! I wore it on my eyes here and here.

As I have mentioned a couple of times lately, I’ve been really into darker make-up, and the Lethal Cosmetics Midnight Serenade Magnetic pressed powder palette is next on the list for creating a dark, smokey look.

I’d been wanting to try the Glamlite Dirty Martini palette pretty much ever since it launched, because I love an olive/khaki/lime green colour story. This palette is super pretty, and I’m wearing it on my eyes here.

Another colour story I love is a pink and green one, and the Glamlite x Strawberry Shortcake “Berrylicious” palette is another palette that has been on my wishlist for a while. I also picked up the Glamlite x Strawberry Shortcake Berry Sweet lip kit, which comes with a lipgloss and a lipstick. I’m wearing the palette and the lipstick here.

Resurrection again

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I was so excited about the Wicked Widow Beauty Resurrection palette which I wore here that I wanted to create another (and completely different) look with it. I love how versatile this palette is.

(Base: primer – Iconic London Underglow blurring primer, foundation – Catrice True Skin Hydrating foundation (shade: 004 Neutral Porcelain), concealers – NYX Pro Fix Stick correcting concealer (shade: 0.1 Green) + Catrice True Skin High Cover concealer (shade: 002 Neutral Ivory), powders – Essence Brighten Up! Banana powder in 10 Bababanana + Catrice All Matt Shine Control powder Healthy Look in 100 Neutral Fresh Beige. Face make-up: bronzer + blusher + highlighter – Catrice Magic Shaper face cream palette in 010 Holy Grail (shades: 1 + 2 (bronzer) + 4 (blush) + 6 (highlighter)). Eye make-up: base – Sigma Beauty Eyeshadow Base Primer in Ignite, eyeshadows – Wicked Widow Beauty Resurrection palette (shades: Divine Light + Heavenly Realm + Growth + Temptation + Shrine + Immortal Rest), mascaras – Essence I Love Extreme crazy volume mascara + Kiko Milano Smart Colour mascara in 08 Jungle Green, eyeliners – Colourpop liquid liner in The Hills + NYX Vivid Rich eyeliner in Emerald Empire. Eyebrows: Catrice Brow Fix Soap Stick in 010 Transparent + Maybelline Brow Ultra Slim pencil in Medium Brown. Lips: Essence Stay 8h lipliner in 08 Passionate + Catrice Heart Affair full shine lipstick in C03 Heartbreaker)

Reckless romance

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I used the By BEAUTY BAY Reckless Romance 20 colour palette (which I haven’t hauled yet) to create this eye look. I thought it was fitting since it’s actually a Valentine’s Day inspired palette.

(Base: primer – e.l.f. Cosmetics Liquid Poreless Putty primer, foundation – Missha M Perfect Cover B.B Cream Spf 42 (shade: 21 Light Beige), concealers – Smashbox x Becca Under Eye Brightening Corrector in Fair/Light + Huda Beauty #FAUXFILTER Luminous Matte liquid concealer (shade: 1.3G Marshmellow), powders – Huda Beauty Easy Bake powders (shades: Cherry Blossom Cake + Sugar Cookie).

Collective clothing + accessories haul (December 2023)

I have a collective clothing and accessories haul to share with you today. I either bought or received these items as presents back in December.

You have already seen me wear this denim maxi dress from Monki. I’ve had my eye on it for a while, and when Monki had a sale, I decided to finally get it.

I also got this dress in the Monki sale. I’ll be posting a look with this dress soon-ish.

I’ve already worn this jumper several times, and it’s just so comfy. I’m wearing it here.

I love a fitted roll neck top, and purple and red are two of my favourite colours, so I had to have this top from Monki. I wore it underneath the denim maxi dress.

The last item(s) I bought in the Monki sale was a 5 pack of Christmas socks for next Christmas season.

This denim skirt from H&M has quickly become a favourite. I’m wearing it here and here.

I featured this Stine Goya Lotta bag in my January 5 favourites post, and it’s the perfect everyday bag. It was a Christmas present from my parents.

This lilac Silfen Ulrikke bag was also a Christmas present, and I really like Silfen bags.

Lastly, I got some jewellery for Christmas. The hoops are from Pandora, and I’ve been wearing them with some Disney pendants. The Nightmare Before Christmas Pandora charm was a Christmas present from my boyfriend; we love The Nightmare Before Christmas and watch it every year on Halloween. Then I also got two Trollbeads glass beads and a ring from Maanesten called Brook. I’ve worn the ring every day since I got it.

Dark and vampy

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. This is the darkest, vampiest look I’ve done in a long time, but I kind of love it, and I definitely had a lot of fun creating the look.
