    Huge Feel Unique Haul


    It has been SO long since I've done a big makeup order, mainly because my spending priorities have been focused on clothes shopping for my holiday in July! But I've finally got everything organised so when payday came around I was ready for a splurge! So I had a look on feelunique.com for some goodies seeing as though I haven't had a look on their site in a while!

    First of all I ordered another NARS All Day Luminous Weightless Foundation (what a mouthful) in the shade Stromboli. I love love love this foundation so when I ran out of it I was gutted! So I picked up another to make sure I was stocked for when my holiday comes around.

    (From left to right intense butter gloss in Sorbet, intense butter gloss in Tres Leches, soft matte lip cream in London, intense butter gloss in Peanut Brittle, butter gloss in Fortune Cookie and intense butter gloss in Cookie Butter.)

    I picked up 6 NYX lip products including 4 Intense Butter Glosses, 1 Soft Matte Lip Cream and 1 Butter Gloss. I already have a few soft matte lip creams and I love them, so I was really eager to try some of the other lip products that NYX have to offer. I picked up mainly nude shades and a bright coral shade. I'm super excited to try these products out and let you all know what I think of them. I popped on the Intense Butter Gloss in Peanut Brittle today and it's a winner so far!

    (Top: Laura Geller Baked Gelato Swirl Illuminator in Gilded Honey. Bottom: NYX Born To Glow Liquid Illuminator in Gleam.)

    I love love love GLOW products. Anything from illuminating primers to powder highlighters - I need it. I've seen the Laura Geller highlighter in Gilded Honey so much on Youtube, Instagram and Pinterest and it's a beautiful gold highlighter which is so up my street, so of course I needed it! Personally I think the packaging could be better for the price but it's what's inside that counts. 

    Last but not least is the NYX Liquid Illuminator in Gleam. I spotted this as I was flicking through the NYX section on feel unique and it really caught my eye. I think NYX products are amazing quality especially for the price! I wouldn't use this as a cream highlighter on it's own I'm looking more into using this as an illuminating primer for underneath my foundation. The shade Gleam is a beautiful rose gold shade and they do two other shades in the range too! I can't wait to try this out!

    That's all for my Feel Unique haul! Let me know if you have any of these products in your collection and let me know what you think of them! See you soon!

    MAC, Morphe and NYX Haul

    Good morning! I do love Friday mornings, purely because I'm lucky enough to have Friday's off (even though they're usually spent catching up on college work). I was looking at my makeup yesterday morning and realised how many new products I've bought recently that I haven't yet talked about! There was too many to put in a single haul but here are a few of my favourites that have made it into this post.


    So I'll start with the Morphe Gel Liner in Slate. I use the MAC gel liner in Blacktrack but it's started to go a bit dry and crumbles when I apply it (not glam) so I invested in this Morphe one just to try it out! I'm so impressed with it because it's so creamy and so black which is exactly what I wanted and it's cheaper and works just as good as my MAC one! I thought that because the liner was so creamy that it would transfer onto my lids but it didn't so i'm very impressed with this liner! 

    Of course there had to be a brush involved! I'm always on the hunt for new brushes and when I purchased the Morphe E23 brush I knew I probably wasn't going to get on with it as a blending brush. The best tip I can give is that natural bristles are better for blending eyeshadows than synthetic bristles. As this is a synthetic brush I knew I would find some use for it, what I like using this brush for is applying and blending out cream eyeshadows, the bristles are thicker and can properly blend out the cream seamlessly. 

    I'm a sucker for lip pencils especially MAC ones but I picked up two of these NYX lip pencils in the shades nude pink and nude truffle. Nude pink is good to pair with nude pink (no comment) lipsticks or applied all over the lips and a gloss on top looks good too! The lipliners are a bit dry they're definitely not my favourite but they're good for the price that they are. 


    Next up are my new MAC lipsticks! I don't know what it is but there is definitely something that excites me about a new MAC lipstick! The shades are from left to right Stone, Whirl, Kinda Sexy and Brave. 

    Stone is a cool toned dark brown, matte lipstick. Very 90s, I'm so on that vibe. 

    Whirl is a mauve matte lipstick, which kind of has a brownish undertone. I love this lipstick it's a statement but still a nude shade. 

    Kinda Sexy is a peachy pink nude matte lipstick, peachy toned lipsticks are not my thing but with spring coming up I'm determined to make myself wear these colours because they're so beautiful!

    Last but not least is Brave which is a perfect medium pink satin lipstick, again perfect for spring coming up!

    My MAC lipstick collection has more than doubled since my last MAC lipstick collection post so if an updated collection post would interest anyone feel free to comment and let me know. See you soon!
