The new Revlon Shadowlinks were definitely an impulse buy
after a bad day, as was the Maybelline Chocolate Chip eyeliner – but I’d had my
eye on the latter for quite a while so it was going to be mine sooner or later.
I’ve got a bit of an obsession with Essie Mojito Madness after seeing it on
Larie’s Twitter header, and I bought an essence polish in an attempt at quashing the
lemming until I reach U.S shores where I can pick that shade up. I'll have a full post up on that another time!
I bought quite a few wedding related things this month,
namely my wedding shoes (squeee!) and gifts for the bridal party as well as a
few jewellery contenders for myself for the big day. Does anyone have an online
jewellery store recommendation for me for blingy pieces? Would love some help
in that department! As an aside, I’m thinking of posting some wedding related
things up here, is there anything you’d like to know about at this point? Less than 2
months to go then it’s honeymoon time!
I saw the Revlon Playful Plum blush in the clearance section of
Priceline and even though we’re coming into the warmer weather when I’d hardly
wear a shade like this, I’m a fan of the Revlon cheek formula (see my post
here) and decided to pick it up anyway. The half price Maybelline sale was the
cause of the Colour Tattoo in Edgy Emerald, coupled with my obsession with the
aforementioned green shade…green bags, green tops, green shoes, green makeup,
greeeeeeen!Mini set of Antipodes at 40% off? How could I say no!?
Cute jewellery pieces on sale from Colette and Equip
A few things I picked up with the 30% off NYX sale at Target, and my beloved Covergirl Clump Crusher mascara finally went down to $10 at Priceline.
I splurged on some of my favourite Urban Rituelle Cotton
Candy purse sprays while shopping at Forever New (full review is here) and some
of the Juicy Couture Dirty English mini’s while buying Dad’s Fathers Day gift (Enrique Adrenaline!) – technically
a male scent, this discontinued gem is my ‘signature scent’ for winter. My
sister in law was so sweet to buy me this Nicole Richie No Rules bottle while
we were out for coffee one day, and looking at it now on the screen I can see it
was a scent-centred month indeed!
September might have a few splurges at the shops, but not too many...my second iPhone button just broke but I’m hoping it will hold out until we
leave for our honeymoon. The rest of our cash is for wedding related
activities – can’t wait for my hens and my kitchen tea!
Did you buy anything exciting this month so I can live
vicariously through you?
I can’t wait for a big haul in Vegas, it is well overdue!

Ooh stunning necklace! Gosh I regret not taking advantage of the NYX sale now, the butter glosses look so good. I've heard so much about Antipodes but I still can't bring myself to fork out the extra cash eep.
ReplyDeleteAnd woohoo exciting wedding times are fast approaching!

Yeah I fell in love with it straight away, turquoise can be so nice! I am surprised you didn't grab any butter glosses, they are so nice. I should have bought the bright pink one but Mister talked me into this shade instead.
DeleteWedding is approaching way too fast lol!
I wanna try the CG Clumpcrusher mascara. Is it good for volume and separation ?
ReplyDeleteI absolutely adore it, best mascara I've tried to date. It gives nice volume, to be honest I'm a bit weird with mascaras because I have naturally long lashes so most do me fine but this separates them and it lets you built it up so much!
DeleteI approve of green obsessions! :D LOL, sorry my Twitter header inspired you to spend money!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to get that polish, it is going to make me so happy!
DeleteCan't wait to see your thoughts on the Revlon eyeshadows x
ReplyDeleteCurrently trialling and will have a review up soon :) x
DeleteI can't wait for your big haul either. :D I also can't resist mini skincare sets. That Antipodes one is adorable.
ReplyDeleteIt is going to be meggggaaa crazy!
DeleteThat green is beautiful. I've been so tempted to buy some of the Revlon shadows, they're so cute.
ReplyDeleteYeah I love clicking them together I wish I could make them into a square though lol
DeleteSuch lovely products... the bracelet and the earrings are so adorable and pretty :)
ReplyDeleteThat Color Tattoo is one of the ones that I really wanted (together with the orange one) but they never reached Finland ;)
xx
Oh no sucks that some of the bright shades didn't make it to Finland!
