I have a small-ish Beauty Bay sale haul to share with you today. I purchased these products back in November last year.
I’d been wanting to try out Nikkie Tutorials’ brand Nimya for a while, so I picked up the eyeshadow pro kit, which includes the Nimya The Palette, the Set It & Forget It setting spray, and the Blow Before You Go fan. I wore the palette here, and I loved how my eye look turned out. I haven’t tried the setting spray yet, but I love the fan and use it every time I do my make-up.
I’ve already featured the Danessa Myricks Beauty Yummy Skin serum skin tint (shade: 2) in a 5 favourites post, and I still love this product! I also love the Danessa Myricks Beauty Yummy Skin Blurring Balm Powder Flushed in the shade Prima Donna. It wore so well all day, and I would love to get my hands on more shades. I’m wearing the blush here.
Lastly, I picked up two of the Trixie Cosmetics Stay The Night liquid shimmer toppers. They’re in the shades Love Potion and Take A Hike. They look really pretty.
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I know lots of people love the Clinique Almost Lipstick in Black Honey, myself included, but I really enjoy the Pink Honey version as well.

On Black Friday, Colourpop had a 30% off sitewide deal, so I picked up some things.
I purchased the Black Friday mystery box, which included these two eyeshadow palettes; the It’s A Mood palette and the Off Melrose palette. I already own the It’s A Mood palette, but the Off Melrose palette is a new addition to my collection.
For cheeks, the mystery box included the Such A Rush cheek palette, which is way to dark for me, and the Super Shock blush in Birthday Suit, which I already own.
The box also included the Feather Effect brow pen in Black Brown, the liquid liner in The Hills, and the Super Shock shadow in Ripple. I didn’t own any of these products already.
The last two products in my mystery box were the Fourth Ray Beauty Overnight Success youth boosting mask and the Lux liquid lipstick in Just Imagine. I haven’t tried these products yet, but I definitely will at some point.
Moving on to the rest of the products I purchased in the sale. I got two more of the monochromatic 9-pan palettes; It’s My Pleasure and Orange You Glad?. I used both palettes to create this look, and I love the outcome.
I really enjoy the BFF créme gel liners from Colourpop, so I picked up the Sailor Moon Tokyo Love créme gel liner set including the two shades Azabu-Juban and Crystal Tokyo.
Another pencil from Colourpop that I really enjoy is the Lippie pencil, so I picked up two shades; V Cute and Love Bug.
I love the Pretty Fresh hydrating setting mist, so I got a back-up. I also love the Super Shock blushes and got the shade Lil Vibe, which is a super vibrant purply shade.
Lastly, I purchased a couple of Disney products. I got the Snow White Magic Mirror hand mirror, and then I finally got my hands on the Winnie The Pooh Hunny Pot lip care kit (include a lip scrub and a lip mask), which is so similar to the Winnie The Pooh lip care set from Catrice.
I have a huge Essence and Catrice haul to share with you today. It’s their latest Disney collabs; Essence Disney Mickey and Friends and Catrice Disney Winnie The Pooh. Let’s begin with the Essence Disney Mickey and Friends collection.
I picked up two of the eyeshadow palettes. I got 01 Dreams Are Forever, which has a green colour story and 03 Laughter Is Timeless, which has a blue colour story. I really liked the quality of green one, but the blue one was lacking in the pigmentation department. Both are very cute to look at though.
I purchased both of the Bouncy blushes. They’re in the shades 01 Never Grow Up and 02 Another Perfect Day. I think these are supposed to mimic the MAC Glow Play blushes, which has a blush formula that I love, so I think it’s nice to have an affordable version.
For lips I picked up the Balmy Gloss in 02 Back To Nature and the two Fruity lip balms in 01 Oh Cranberry! and 02 Red Berries Vibes!. The packaging on these is very cute.
The Essence collection also included two fixing sprays; the Happy Mood & Fixing Spray in 010 Nature Makes Me Happy and the Relaxing Mood & Fixing Spray in 020 Nature, The Antidote To Stress.
I love Essence nail polishes, and these are metallic shades called 01 Adventure Awaits and 02 Aw, Phooey!.
Lastly from the Essence Mickey and Friends collection, we have some tools. The collection included a cream blush brush and an eyeshadow brush and also creaseless hair clips.
Now let’s move on to the Catrice Disney Winnie The Pooh collection. I only picked up one of the eyeshadow palettes. This one is called 020 Friends Lift Each Other Up and has a lilac/purple colour story.
The Catrice collection included two Soft Glow bronzers in the shades 010 I Think It’s Called Love and 020 Promise You Won’t Forget Me Ever. These are so adorable!
The lip products in the Winnie The Pooh collection was a lip oil in 010 Silly Old Bear and some lip balms. I picked up the lip balm in the shade 010 Poohisms.
For lips I also got the Trio Lip Care Set 3pcs, which includes a lip mask, a lip scrub, and a lip exfoliator tool (I’m not sure if that is the proper name for it). This set is just the cutest!
I also purchased one of the nail polishes from the Catrice collection. It’s the Dream In Soft Glaze nail polish in 020 Let Your Sillyness Shine. I also got the nail and cuticle oil.
This collection also had an Illuminating Primer in 010 Poohtiful and a lash curler.
The very last thing in this haul is the soothing hand cream in 020 Just Doing Nothing with the cute Eeyore on the front.
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. This is one of my favourite make-up looks I’ve done so far this year, but I’m so annoyed by the flashback my powder created, and I decluttered that powder immediately! However, I’m obsessed with both the eye look and the lip combo.
