Hello lovelies :)
Some of you might remember my earlier post calling for any of you UK gals to let me know of any products I should pic up while I was over there for a day's retail therapy, a big thanks to anyone who commented!
As you can probably tell from the pic above I am now back in Ireland with some gorgey purchases! I thought I'd let you all know what I picked up. First off I just wanna mention that I don't usually buy this much makeup at once, but I saved because I knew this trip was coming up! It was also my birthday in the past few days so I had a few extra pennies :)
I'm not gonna go into too much detail, as I have a feeling that I'll be doing quite a few reviews!
♥ Britney Spears Fantasy - I adore this perfume. I'm rubbish at describing scents but I love this for daytime wear, it's girly and just yum!
♥ Sleek Pallettes - At last I got my mitts on these babies! I ran straight for these when we got to Superdrug on Oxford St, and picked up the Sunset and Original palettes. I had a look at the acid palette but decided against getting it as I felt I had similar shades already. I was a bit disappointed when I didn't see the Storm palette, but I had heard it was a bit harder to find. Until....I found one hiding behind a bunch of acid palettes -YAY! I wanted the contour kit but they were all out of the light shade :( I did pick up medium to see what it'd be like when I have tan on. If it's still too dark I'll just pass it on to a friend and get her opinion on it.
♥ Beauty UK Palettes 4 & 5 - Again I picked the palettes in shades most suitable to what I like wearing lately. These were a little smaller than I expected, but at under £4 they are amazing value. I need to give them a trial run and will get back to you :) Oh one more thing - when I got home I realised that one of the shadows had shattered during transit :(
But losing one isn't so bad I suppose!
♥ Barry M - Lipsticks in 100, 101 and 129. Following the crowd here I know but I've heard such great things that I just had to try em out! I also picked up their lovely mint green nail polish. Can't wait to try these out!
♥ Nars Orgasm and Laguna - I have been lusting after these for the longest time! Theres no Nars counter in my area so i am particularly happy at having been ale to pick these up. :)
♥ Mac - I picked up 5 shadow inserts for my palette, in shades Satin Taupe, Black Tied, Woodwinked, Sable and Sketch. I also grabbed blacktrack fluidline and blackground paintpot - Obviously I'm loving dark eyes right now! :) I had intended on getting Dollymix blush and a couple of lipsticks but just didn't have the time in the end... I guess they'll have to stay on the lust list for a little while longer! :)
♥ A Few Other Random Bits of Gorgeous - A couple of drugstore lipsticks, Gosh concealer in shade 2 (I'm crossing my fingers and toes and everything that this will keep my dark circles at bay!), and Prestige Skinloving Minerals in Glam Tan.
That's about it!
I don't think I'll be hauling (ugh hate that word...why can't there be a nicer word for it!!!) for a while again! But I'm so happy with what I picked up.

I also picked up some clothes and accessories while i was there and if anyone would like to see a post on this please leave a comment and I'll happily do one!
*Thanks so much for reading *

Aww I am so jealous! I just read in 'The beaut.ie guide to gorgeous' thats you can get NARS in brown thomas in Dublin! :) I am defo getting some blush next time im there :D
ReplyDeleteCan you get the makeup uk palettes in superdrug? Or where did you pick them up?
I am so jealous... I'd love to have all these :)
BTW Happy belated birthday :)
@ makeup is a girls best friend - I was pretty sure you could get Nars in Dub but unfortunately that is ages away from me so no joy! If I am ever up there in the not too distant future I will deffo be picking up deep throat blush also. Strange name for a blush but pretty colour!
ReplyDeleteThe beauty UK palettes are from Superdrug, sorry I should've mentioned that! I know there are Superdrugs in Dublin and in Donegal if I'm not mistaken, but I don't really know about anywhere else here! There doesn't seem to be any in the west for moi though :(
Thanks for reading and the bday wishes :)
