Presents!

Last week I broke one of my teeth and was quite upset about it! So while I was feeling sorry for myself I was internet browsing like crazy, I didn't buy anything but I tend to save lots of shopping carts on many different websites (in the hope that I will become rich and be able to buy them all!).

Anyway my lovely boyfriend came home last night with a parcel full of luxury goodies that he had secretly bought to cheer me up! 


Look at the lush brands in this stash! NARS, MAC, YSL, Chanel and Korres.


Two NARS blushes Cactus Flower (Cream Blush) and New Order (Highlighting Blush Powder)


Chanel Illusion D'Ombre Long Wear Eyeshadow in Epatant and MAC Sheertone Shimmer Blush in Dollymix


Triple Pack of Korres lip butters in Jasmine, Pomegranate and Wild Rose


NARS Lipstick in Barbarella and YSL Rouge Volupte in no.19 (Frivolous Pink)


Epatant, New Order, Cactus Flower and Dollymix


Jasmine (basically clear), Pomegranate, Wild Rose, Barbarella and Frivolous Rose

I'm super excited to try all these products out, I have had my eye on quite a few of these for ages, namely Cactus Flower, a Korres lip butter, NARS lipstick and YSL Lipstick. 

The Chanel Epantant looks like a lovely addition to a smokey eye and I can't wait to use it, it's quite a unique bouncy mousse like texture and just seems so luscious!

Oh I am so spoilt! This is one way to get around Project 10 Pan... receive lots of presents!!!

Have you tried any of these goodies? What do you think of them?

Beauty Bargain!

I am a huge fan of online shopping! So the other week I was doing my usual nightly routine and perusing the world wide web for beauty bargains when I came across beautyjoint.com. BeautyJoint is a U.S. based website that sells "drugstore" brands such as e.l.f, NYX and Ardell just to name a few. I have had my eye on trying some e.l.f blushes for a while but prior to finding this website the cheapest i could find them for was $9.99 AUD however on beautyjoint.com e.l.f studio blushes are $3.99 USD and with the dollar being how it is at the moment thats a beauty bargain for sure! I paid for the cheapest shipping which was around $15 dollars and my package arrived in about 2 weeks! Perfect!
 So i picked up 6 of the e.l.f studio blushes in Pink Passion, Fuchsia Fusion, Tickled Pink, Berry Merry, Mellow Mauve and Candid Coral.







From Left to Right; Pink Passion, Fuchsia Fusion, Tickled Pink, Berry Merry, Mellow Mauve and Candid Coral

As you can see some are more pigmented than others on my pale, pale skin.

While I was on a blush roll I also bought a few NYX blushes, two of the Rouge Cream Blush ($6.25 USD) and two of the Blush ($5.70 USD)


Clockwise from top; Pinky, Tea Rose, Boho Chic and Peach


Rouge Cream Blush; Top, Tea Rose, Bottom, Boho Chic


Blush; Top, Pinky, Bottom, Peach

I am looking forward to trying all these out (might take me a while as there are so many!) I wore e.l.f Mellow Mauve yesterday and it gave a nice subtle, natural look, perfect for Autumn!

Have a look at beautyjoint and let me know what you think, or if you have any other bargain beauty websites that you think I should check out!
