Giant The Balm Haul!

Hey guys! I come bearing another haul post again (and theres a few more to come) as this girl has been caught between what feels like a million and one sales! Ozsale has been having quite a number of sales on American high end makeup and I was fortunate enough to have enough money in my savings - to blow on makeup. Long story short, I bought a LOT from The Balm cosmetics (which I am a GIANT fan of) so lets get cracking!

Let's begin with the matte eyeshadow pallettes I bought. I purchased both installments of the 'Meet Matt(e)' range - Meet Matt(e) and Meet Matt(e) Nude - which consists of beautiful pigmented matte shadows. I actually purchased the original Meet Matt(e) off Luxola.com and the Nude palette from Ozsale. I can't seem to locate the original palette on The Balm's website, so it may be discontinued, so if you like the shades, go for it before it's gone! I won't get into too much detail as to how great the shadows are as this is a haul post, but I'll just be clear about the fact EVERYTHING I bought was a winner in my books!

Next up is another eyeshadow palette - and this one is very well known in the blog-o-sphere, the Nude 'tude eyeshadow palette. I have heard many positve reviews on this palette and the shades are nice and warm which is what I like; so why not give it a go?

Now to the last eye items I purchased - the SmokeBalm Palettes! I thought these were super cute and had previously seen swatches which looked INTENSE, so I picked them up! I purchased both Volume 1 and 2 as they both looked too pretty I couldn't help myself.

Next we enter the territory of blushers! Oh my God, I have wanted to try these blushers for so long! I have pondered this purchase before, but this time I didn't even blink. They were in my basket the second I laid my eyes on them! I purchased the infamous Frat Boy and Down Boy blushers - and these guys are so beautiful, the pricetag is justified.

Last but not least, I purchased the TimeBalm concealer. I love this product! I have already owned and used it for over a year, but I have been too tanned for the shade I already own so I decided to purchase a darker shade.


And there you have it - a giant The Balm haul! I am still waiting for my NARS and Eyeko items to arrive but when they do, you'll know first!

Huge Priceline Haul! Ft - Maybelline, Savvy and More!

Hey guys!

Priceline had a 40% off all cosmetics sale last Tuesday and Wednesday and as the title suggests, I kinda went nuts! I bought a whole lot of products I haven't tried before so in this post, I'll be showing you what I bought so you know which reviews to keep an eye out for!

Let's start with my Maybelline goodies! Maybelline has come out with a few new products for Autumn/Winter and I was trying to get my hands primarily on the new foundation and lip pencils. I purchased the foundation but unfortunately I got an email from Priceline saying they were out of stock so I didn't receive it. I got my hands on five shades of the new Color Drama Lipsticks, a Color Tattoo Eyeshadow in Bad to the Bronze and the Volum' Express Falsies Big Eyes Mascara.

Next Brand I was eager to try makeup from was Savvy by DB Cosmetics. I had heard a lot of positive reviews on the Ultra Matte Lip Colours so I knew I had to pick a couple of those up. Whilst I was there, I was also intriged by a few other items in the range so I picked up the Classic Blush, Mineral Baked Blush (sorry there's no link, the page was taken down), Cheek & Lip Colour and Mineral Baked Bronzer.

Last but not least, let's get into the miscellaneous items. I purchased another Bourjois Rouge Edition 12H Lipstick to add to my collection, the Australis Blemish Buster Primer (sorry also no link to this page) and the Essence All About Matt! Oil Control Paper as I can never have enough blotting sheets in my life!

 
Anyways guys that is it for my haul post! I hope you enjoyed checking out what I bought. Let me know your thoughts if you have tried any of these before and we shall chat again soon!

Pixi by Petra Mesmerising Mineral Palette Review and Swatches!

Hey guys!

Today I'll be reviewing the Pixi by Petra Mesmerising Mineral Eyeshadow Palette in Rich Gold. I was initially drawn into purchasing this palette as I have really enjoyed using Pixi products previously and having a warm skintone, I am always eager to try gold toned eyeshadows.

As always, I was greeted with the signature bright green and gold packaging of Pixi products. What is great about the packaging of this product in particular is it is small, thin and sleek. It also has a clear cover so it is easy to identify which palette you are picking up - the downfall of this of course is that there is no mirror.

There are six eyeshadow shades in this palette which weighs 5.76g and retails for $24 AUD off ASOS. There is actually a sale on ASOS right now and the gold and silver palettes are only $15! All of these shadows are mineral based and also shimmery. They are not glittery in any way, they have an iridescent shimmer that translates subtly and looks absolutely stunning on the eyes. All the shades also look beautiful and complement eachother nicely. As it is a warm toned neutral palette, I can also see this being used as an every day eyeshadow palette. The shadows are also very soft and buttery, pigmented and blend well. All in all, this palette is a winner ladies!

Have you tried any of the Mesmerising Mineral Palettes before? Did you have the same positive experience I did? Share your experiences below!

Rimmel London Limited Edition Comic Relief Kate Lipstick!

A must have lipstick for this Autumn is by Kate Moss - the Rimmel London Limited Edition Comic Relief Kate Lipstick in the shade 01 Red Nose Red. I have been loving this lipstick! Like all of the Rimmel Kate Moss lipsticks, this one is amazing. Extremely pigmented, creamy, non drying and long wearing.

This lipstick is super cute with its red spot design and classic signature black plastic casing. What makes this lipstick even more amazing is that it is in support for red nose day! For every lipstick sold, Rimmel will donate £1.67 to Comic Relief! I don't know about you guys, but the idea that I'm doing something good whilst satisfying my need to spend and my obsession for makeup is really fulfilling. With that said, here is a swatch of the colour of the season!

I highly recommend this lipstick for its formula, shade and the cause. I just love it, and if you're thinking about purchasing it, go for it, it's on sale for ASOS so no more excuses!
