-Hides- ANOTHER HAUL!

I know. I'm on a spending ban. But these things I needed because I thought they'd be good for travelling because they won't break and they aren't that heavy. So heres what I bought!

Maybelline Baby Skin Primer $15.95

Normally I would not spend that kind of money on something so small. But I just had to get my hands on this as I had heard it was pretty good. And its worth the money and the hype. Review coming on this in the next post!

Covergirl Ready Set Gorgeous Foundation - $16.95

This is what I mainly wanted on my whole trip. I think the size is perfect for travelling. I also have a review on this coming next week - either Friday or Wednesday. Most likely Friday as I have a feeling my Bellabox will be here Tuesday. Also I was going to buy this at Target, but my local Target had nothing in the makeup section. Maybelline, Nyx, Revlon and Covergirl had hardly anything so I left. But bought these 2 next babies

Maybelline Baby Lips Candy Wow Lip Pencils - $4.86 (Originally $6.95)

These were the only things I found at Target. Though I kinda wish I bought them at Priceline cause they are like $2.50 or something there. But oh well. I have the whole collection now and if anymore come out, you for sure know I'll be buying them.

So thats my final haul until August. I'll be shopping like mad in Melbourne!

Feel free to follow me on instagram to see what I get up to! - xobrontie

July Haul + Spending Ban!

Okay lets start off with the bad news. I've put myself on a spending ban. Just for a month. I'm traveling to Melbourne for my 21st and I thought "I don't need anything right now, I'm going to shop like crazy when I'm in Melbourne" so thats what I'm going to do. I seriously don't need anything. Apart from Makeup wipes. Thats all I will need. But I'm trying not to use them all up.

And I tell you what. THIS REALLY SUCKS. Cause 1: Target have got 30% off all cosmetics and UGH. When Chi Chi is on sale. Mama needs to buy her some. And point number 2: Maybelline have come out with some amazing new products. Which I bought all I wanted apart from one thing. The pore eraser. I haven't been able to get my hands on it. But I told myself '$16 is a bit pricey for that tiny tube. Wait until Melbourne, or until it goes on sale'. So I'm doing that.

But lets get on with the haul! Lemme show ya what I got!

 

Maybelline Baby Lips Candy Wow Balm Stains

I guess you'd call them a balm stain. But ugh I love these and I'm actually thinking of buying 2 more tomorrow cause I can spare $2.50 each. But I have a review coming on these in the next few weeks. And I believe these are a new product from Maybelline. YAY! 

 

 E.L.F. High Definition Undereye Setting Powder

So Shaaanxo used to rave about this product, so when I saw it at Kmart, I decided to grab it. Kmart has really improved in the makeup department and I kinda want to go ham over their makeup and...yeah. I'm thinking of doing a full face elf tutorial in the future? 

 

Maybelline Lash Sensational

Another new product from Maybelline is this mascara. And I have heard people rave about this product so I just had to get my hands on it. Review will be coming at the end of August as I have soo many mascaras to use. #girlproblems 

Maybelline Hyper Sharp Wing Liner

I just used this today and omg. I'm throwing out my other liners cause they are complete shit compared to this one. This one is just amazing. Review coming on this next week. 

*Priceline and Chemist Warehouse have a sale on this product and the Mascara. Buy the 2 in one packet for just $24! I did the math and you are saving yourself close to $15 just by doing this because buying both of them individually is close to $40.*

 

E.L.F Blending Eye Brush's

I use these all the time and they are only $3 so I just bought more cause I'm going to use them so why not. 

ColorPop Haul!

Yaaay more Color Pop goodies!

After my first Color Pop order I was so impressed by their fast shipping and of course the quality of the products, and as I use them basically almost everyday I decided to buy some more. Heres what I got!

The main thing I wanted to try out this time around in my order was their infamous Lippie Stix. And I am yet to fully use them so I will be doing a proper in depth review on them both soon. But I love them both. I got Frida Which is a my lips but better colour (Top colour) and Westie which is a bit more pinker than I had expected it to be but I still love it.

I only bought 2 Super Shock Shadows this time around and I am yet to use the coral. The Silver (Liberty) it ULTRA pigmented and such a great colour that I want to use the ultimate crap out of it and I want to buy more formulas. The coral is called Animal and is a super nice cool coral shade and is just what I wanted.

Excuse my incredibly hairy arms (thanks Dad for your genes <3) But swatches from top; Frida, Westie, Liberty and Animal.

There is so much more I want to buy from Color Pop. I love them so much they have never failed or let me down yet!

Haul - Maybelline, Essie and Covergirl

Wow its been a while since I've posted a haul on my blog. So I thought I'd may as well post this one, and another one will be coming on Friday as I want to put that one out of the way too.

Covergirl Outlast Stay Fabulous Foundation in Buff (?) 

Its in Buff something. Just can't think of the name off the top of my head. I'm quite excited to use this foundation. One of my favourite YouTuber's (Lindsay Hughes) swears by this foundation and I've read a few reviews saying bloggers swear by it too. Review should be coming in the next month.

  Target: $19.95

Maybelline Master Smokey by Eye Studio

I got this as a freebie from Priceline after spending $25 on Maybelline. Its a gift from Maybelline as it is their 100th anniversary. I didn't get to choose what I got. But this is what was in my 'Lucky Dip'. And I'm not too excited about it, as its something I wouldn't buy myself. But I may use it, haven't quite decided on if I want to use it yet.

Priceline/Maybelline: Free

Maybelline Color Drama Velvet Lip Pencil in Minimalist

In store, this looked like such a nice colour. Unfortunately, when I got home and swatched it, I didn't quite love it so much. Its really frosty and I don't like frost finishes. So this was a bummer purchase by me.

Priceline: 30% off Original Price

Maybelline Great Lash Lots of Lashes

This is hands down my favourite mascara by Maybelline. It grabs every lash and gives a really nice look to the lashes. This is like my fourth repurchase of the mascara and I will continue to buy it.

Priceline: 30% off Original Price

Maybelline Shine Free Loose Powder

I'm starting to run low on my loose powder and as I'm never repurchasing that one again due to personal reasons with the shop owner, I decided I might try a new one. This powder, I already tried on my face and it is such a fine powder, fine-r than the one I'm using now. It doesn't leave your face feeling cakey, and it feels like you don't have powder on because it is so soft.

Target: $11.49 On Sale - Originally $16.95

Maybelline Dream Smooth Primer Base

I tested this in store and almost bought it a while ago but held myself back. This primer is amazing. I'm going to do a review on it so I'm not going to go into full detail but just say you need to test this for yourself.

Priceline: 30% off Original Price

Essie Nail Lacquer in Eternal Optomist

I got a coupon for Essie where I could get $5 off them and I had to use it the day I got it, so I went in store and this was the first shade I saw and had to get it. Its the perfect nude for me. I'd say its Kylie Jenner's Lip Colour in a Nail Polish format. Its just great. Also excuse my chipped nails in the picture.

Priceline: $16.95 + $5 Off Coupon

Quick Haul Post

Hey Guys,

So I wasn't going to post today, but I thought, I haven't shared my latest You Tube video with you all yet. So here it is.

It includes some finds I found at Target, Colette by Colette Hayman, Color Pop and I think there may be some Lush in it too!!

So go give it a watch and enjoy!!

I will see you all tomorrow with another review - I have a lot coming up!

Priceline Haul!

Hey Beauties,

So as soon as Mum brought the mail in the other week, and I laid my eyes on the Priceline catelauge to only find out they were having a 'Spend $60 Get a Free Bag of Goodies worth over $120 (or something) Deal' I couldn't resist.

Now, I'm not going to show what came in the bag, just because this post would be too image heavy and I don't want it to be, instead, I'm going to link you over to the glorious Jasmine from Sweetaholic Beauty's blog post about what the bag contains. Just click riiiight here.

My opinion on the bag - Eh. Wasn't that pleased with it. The foundation and BB Cream are way too dark for me. The lashes I won't use. Most of them I'm just going to use in a giveaway or end up selling because I just won't use it. It was pretty dissapointing to be honest.

But, here's what I got. Now I'm not sure of the prices of these, but it did end up a bit over $60.

First off, I had to grab some of my ultimate favourite makeup remover wipes by Neutrogena. I believe these were $2 off the original price or around about that anyway. And I needed some, because I don't like using my Wot Not ones, because they are too good and I cherish them too much to even touch. Second of all, I really needed concealer, and I've decided that, seeing as Concealer is something I cannot live without, I may as well just start stocking up. So I picked up the Australis Go Camo Heavy Duty Concealer which for some reason reminds me of the Hard Candy Glamoflauge (?) Concealer. Which I'd love to try. But. World problems. And then I picked up the Maybelline Fit Me Concealer Because I had heard some things about it and I wanted to try it out. Both concealers are in the lightest shade.

Also from the Maybelline section, they finally had the Colour Tattoo in Tough as Taupe available, and EVERY time I go to get it, it's sold out. And I was so lucky because it was the last one left too. Still trying to figure out how to use this one as its a bit more of a...I don't know, a warmer neutral? Than a darker one, which is what I normally go for. Might do a post on looks I have made up using this though. Swatches below

Finally I picked up a lipstick I have had my heart set on for a while, and I don't know why I didn't buy it before because I simply love this colour. This is Australis Lip Inject Lipstick in Grunge. When I first saw the colour in the tube (doesn't show up on camera) I was like "Ew this shit is gross, what the hell Australis" Because its actually a brown colour. But when swatched, its a gorgeous maroony purple. And I love these shades for winter/autumn.

Swatches of Tough as Taupe and Grunge.

I think my order may have come below, I don't know. But Mum and I both paid (well she paid, I didn't hehe) for our items together, and the lovely lady allowed us to buy 2 bags because we spent almost $200 in store #guiltyascharged.

But, yeah, thats what I got from Priceline. I wasnt really after that much, and I would've bought Essence stuff if this Priceline stocked Essence, but the one we went to was connected to a Doctors Surgery so it was a Priceline Pharmacy.

I think the bag deal has ended now? Correct me if I'm wrong?

But yeah. I'm gonna go and film a video now so I can upload it tomorrow :3

Keep Smiling!

Beauty Joint Haul/Review!

Hey Beauties,

About 2 weeks ago, I placed my first online makeup order. I decided to use Beauty Joint as I had heard some positive things about them and I must say I was very pleased with my experience there and that I will be a returning customer. Before I go into the review of the company, here's what I bought!

BH Cosmetics; BH Party Girl 40 Color Eyeshadow Palette -

Not going into much detail about this product as a review is coming up shortly. But this is my first BH Palette. I've wanted one for ages, and I was contemplating buying one off their official site, but when I looked on Beauty Joint, it turned out to be cheaper. I believe it was on sale for $13.40 or somewhere around that price. I deleted my email and I don't know the details to mums paypal so I can't quite find out!

But Beauty Joint has only just begun to start stocking BH Cosmetics Palettes, the whole range is not available, but there is a good variety to choose from. I also noticed the other day when I was looking that they are now also selling The Balm too. Which in my opinion, should be on Beauty Bay (Beauty Joint's affiliate site that sells more high end brands) because The Balm is not cheap. Its over $25. And I don't buy makeup for that cheap. Well, rarely anyway.

Jordana; Best Lash Extreme Mascara -

I bought this after Lauren Curtis raving about how great this is. And it was rather cheap too. I think under $4? And this mascara is one of my new favourites. Not saying why, but you'll have to stay tuned to find out why!

Overall

Postage at Beauty Joint is calculated by weight of the items you buy. My postage came to around the same price as the palette, and together it was like $31.06 or something. Which I thought was good, because I knew I would like the palette and I would pay close to $20 for a good palette and I just thought it was decent.

Also, when it comes to shipping you can choose the type. Standard USP, Express USP, and theres another one too which I can't remember (USP = United States Postal Service) Then, you have the option of paying for insurance on your package, just incase it gets lost. I took up on this offer (It was only $1.25 but I think it increases in weight?) because I have had experiences in the past with another company (Not naming who) when I won an eyeshadow, and never got it at all. This was because of postal screw up. And also, us Australian's know how lousy and pathetic Australia Post is, so I just got insurance incase it got lost or something. And it wasn't a crazy amount extra I had to pay, $1.25 is nothing.

The length of time to get to my house was faster than expected. I was thinking about a month for it to get to me, but it actually took 9 working days. How great is that! The parcel was also shipped the next day that I bought it too.

I definatly do recommend purchasing from Beauty Joint, and with this pleasant experience I will be a returning customer.

Have you bought anything from Beauty Joint or any other online store before? Tell me what you think?

I'm considering buying some Real Techniques brushes from iHerb next.

Keep Smiling,

Priceline 40% Off Cosmetics Haul

Hey Beauties,

So last week, I attended Priceline's 40% off Cosmetics sale. And to be honest, I didn't buy a whole lot. I didn't go crazy because I didn't need anything really, so I only got things that I had seen on previous occasions and things I needed.

The first thing I grabbed was some more of my go-to BB Cream. Which is the Maybelline Dream Pure BB Cream. I had actually just ran out on the day of going, so it was a must buy product. Read my review on it here.

I then picked up something I'd been looking at on previous occasions to Priceline. The Maybelline Express Nail Polish Remover. And this stuff is incredible. If you are slack when it comes to removing nail polish like me, this stuff is a saviour.

Before I left the store, I picked up another of Sally Hansen's Triple Shine nail polishes. I selected the shade Wavy Blue. Its a dark blue with pretty shimmers in it. I don't have one like this in my collection at all.

On a previous trip to Priceline, they had some Essie nail polishes reduced to $6.77 so I couldn't pass that up. So I picked up the shade....I think its called Come On? Not too sure as I haven't written it down or got it near me. But its a gorgeous red coral.

What did you get from the Priceline 40% off sale?

*Unlike everybody else, I did not have a voucher to get it cheaper. I contacted Priceline asking why, and it is because I apparently didn't have 100 points at the time, but I know that before they sent them out I did have over 100. I will be getting my voucher in May when the next batch is sent out.

Keep Smiling

February Haul

Hey Beauties,

So over this month, I haven't really collected that much. I have a few second hand items that were new, but thats basically been it.

Excuse the price tag, I cannot get it off for the life of me, but this is a Bourjois Cream Blush. I did swatch it, but because its such a pale pink (product has no name either, sorry) it barely shows up.

Yes I found this baby, barely used, at the op shop. I freaked and had to get it. Its a stunning colour too. Tutorial for sure!

So I was in Priceline, and I swatched this, just like I do every time I go past it. My best friend just told me to buy the bloody thing so I did. I'll probably never use it, but oh well!

This is a gorgeous pink with gold shimmers in it. The gold is really subtle though so its hard to see, but you can kind of see it in the second image. Like the blush, this Bourjois product has no name.

This blush is stunning. Its by The Face Shop and the shade is Coral Cushion. I've used it a few times, and its really pigmented.

The last thing is yet another Bobbi Brown product. This hasn't even been used at all, so I was happy. Though, I think it is a little yellow for me, I will work it out. Its a concealer/powder combo. And I cannot pass up a concealer.

So thats my haul for this month. Did you pick up anything great?

Priceline Bargain Bin Haul

Hey Beauties,

Okay I just love Priceline. Yes theres one store that ticks me off, it was mainly that person, but who cares. It was a one off moment and I've sorted it out.

Anyway, I had to drop off my sister outside of Priceline the other day, and while I was with her waiting for her friend to come, I just casually looked at the front bins for bargains.

And what the hell did I find?

"All Makeup $1"

ONE. FREAKING. DOLLAR.

Could I pass that up? Er, No.

So I tried to not go overboard. I controlled myself, which I'm proud of *pats self on back* and I only spent $7

 

Sally Hansen Sugar Coat - RRP - $9.95 (Chemist Warehouse Pricing)So these nail polishes are kinda new on the market, only been on shelves for like, what, 2 months? So I kinda shat myself when I saw these in there. They had all the colours in there but I didn't know when I'd wear the white and red so I passed them up. But I picked up (From Left) Razzleberry, Bubble Plum, Sour Apple and Lick-O-Rich.

Australis Paparazzi Perfect High Definition Eyeshadow - Discontinued
I saw these in my Target at the clearance section and I always almost buy them, but of course they were cheaper at Priceline, so I bought it. I forgot what shade I got it in though. I think it may be Snap Attack?

Revlon Colorstay Lip Butter - RRP - $21.95$22 reduced to $1. Could I really pass that up? No I don't think so! I got this in the shade Gumdrop which is very sheer with a hint of pink.

Essence Silky Touch Blush - RRP - $4.95 (correct me if I'm wrong?)
I picked this up and I was like "OMG ITS BABYDOLL I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS EVERYWHERE" and I took it home and it turns out I own Babydoll.....totally awkward.....

But yeah, I picked up some AMAZING bargains at Priceline this time around. I suggest that you go and check out your local Priceline for some amazing bargains too?

Expect to see another haul either this weekend or next week.

Also I want to quickly apologise to you all. I haven't been sticking to my posting schedule. So at the moment I'm just going to post whenever I can. I have some major health concerns going on and I need to focus on getting myself right. Post coming about my health concerns tomorrow.

So if you could all support me while I'm being tested for a bunch of stuff (Its nothing bad I don't have cancer - already been tested for that.) that would be great. Its kinda hard and its taking a toll on me emotionally.

Thanks guys,

Keep Smiling,

xobrontie
