I’ve picked up some pretty lovely things lately, and even though a few online orders are yet to arrive it is time to share my new stash items with you. Most are from Priceline and the supermarket,
but I forgot to include my Clinique products (and GWP!) so they’ll have to feature
in the next round up instead. Moving is messing with my mojo, but we’ll get
there eventually.
Covergirl seems to be my Achilles heel this month,
and I found all 3 of these trios on sale at various points of the month and
treated myself to them. No restraint
there, I tell ya! Majestic Hazels (bottom left) has a really nice mix of browns along with a mint and
a cream shade, and I think I am going to really enjoy playing around with it
and finding new combinations. Country Woods (bottom right) had caught my eye a few times, and those neutrals
needed to be mine. Blossoms (top palette) is not something I thought I’d
buy, but I love the intense mix of pink and purple as they are so pretty.
The Innoxa blush duo might have been a silly purchase
as I really don’t need another blush and
I definitely don’t need two but the purchase happened, and the free kabuki
brush was procured. The BOE products I believe are Big W
exclusive, and I couldn’t help treating myself to a matte lip cream and
two lip lacquers for the pricely sum of $2 each! The lip loving trend continues
with a Pink Lolita tinted Baby Lips by Maybelline hopping into my
Priceline basket, along with a slew of new lip products that I don’t
regret and am still swooning over.
The Covergirl Jumbo Gloss Balms in Watermelon
Twist + Plum Twist were inevitable purchases – one inspired by
Ingrid from Miss Glamorazzi and the other a nod to a vampy side of me
that needs some attention. The final lip crayon to enter my overloaded crayon collection is the Bourjois
Colour Boost Glossy Finish crayon in Peach at the Beach. Could it be
the cutest name ever? My vote is a yes at the moment, since I am so smitten
with this shade. I am so tempted to head back for another shade, but on
principle I’m waiting for a Bourjois sale. Stares intently at watch.
La Roche Posay’s Effaclar Duo is an absolue miracle
for my skin, and now that it is available at Priceline I was able to repurchase
and avoid a skin meltdown - crisis averted!
I read about the Nivea In-Shower Body Lotion first on Styling You,
and the very next day I popped into Big W and bought it on sale for $5!
I’m yet to try it as I’m saving it for my new place it’s the little things, but
5 of my family and friends have since bought it and have been quite impressed!
The Grown Body Exfoliant and Facial Moisturiser were spotted for
$5 on a clearance shelf at Priceline, and I love the aesthetic of the
brand so much that I just had to buy them.
That rounds up (most of) my collective haul! I’d love to
know what you think of the products I chose, or what you have picked up lately
that you think I should check out.
Happy hump day!
Haha Im hoping for a Bourjois sale in my area too! Peach on the Beach sounds lovely - Id love to see a review (how opaque/longwearing is it?) Curious:) Also really eager to try their 1 second polish in blue no blues

I can hardly wait to see Peach On The Beach on you Emma! I love that one a lot!
ReplyDeleteAwesome haul Emma, the blush duo and the eyeshadow palettes look so good :)
ReplyDeleteThere is absolutely no such thing as too many blushes!! Gorgeous products; I miss having such easy access to all these brands.
ReplyDeleteThose Covergirl quads look nice! Hows's the pigmentation?

Argh, what a fantastic haul. I can see so many things I want to try myself. Struggling with this 50 Day Spending Ban as so many lovely things are being released but looking at people's hauls makes it slightly easier. I just added the Covergirl crayons to my post ban spend up. Xx
ReplyDeleteI have two of those trios! Great minds! Also picked up the in shower, so far so good :) xx
ReplyDeleteNice haul. I swatched the color boost pencil in boots and was impressed!
ReplyDeleteWhhhaatt Grown facial moisturiser - $5?! I actually bought that body exfoliant but it was $15 when I bought mine :p I still that was like 50% off or possibly more. I think the retail is like $40 or slightly less. I'm intently waiting for a Bourjois sale too!
ReplyDeleteGreat minds think alike, I have two of the Bourjois pencils and one Cover Girl...I also love Boe, they are fantastic value for money! How are the lip creams/lip lacquers?
ReplyDeleteNice haul!
ReplyDeleteI don't think i've ever tried anything from covergirl apart from their mascaras.
I have my eye on that bourjois lip crayon too but i realllllllllly shouldn't buy anymore lip products...for now
à la foliee
Ooh, lots of nice goodies here. I'm actually keen to see what you think of the BOE items.
ReplyDeleteYou def have great products here! I have also tried the La Roche Posay’s Effaclar Duo and I really love it. My skin loves it and it looks and feel great. No wonder why you love these products you have shown us for they are def worth trying.
ReplyDeleteOh I am really keen to hear what you think of those lip crayons!
ReplyDeleteHi Emma, i love seeing your hauls!! :)
ReplyDeleteI havent tried anything from Covergirl at all - such a shame. But your eyeshadow palettes are making me change that ASAP. Will wait for swatches on those yummy palettes.
