Can you guess how many times I been shopping since boxing day? Practically 5 days in a row. It was such a chaos. Especially River Island, every single shoe was on the floor and clothes were hardly even hanging on the racks. I tripped over so many hangers and the security guard kept on saying sorry and slyly pushed all the hangers on the floor into a corner LOL! I didn't get any clothes on boxing day, but I did get some the days after but I'll post that in my part 2. So all I got was make-up which wasn't that exciting coz I was just stocking up but I did get some new things to try out :)
Ohh I did take some photos of my eye make-up I did on that day although you can't really see it, I thought I would post anyway :)
I used my Chanel palette which has been neglected to the extent that my mum took it and it's been with her for let's say a good amount of time.
The brown is literally gone but I just kept on swirling my brush like crazy monkey anyway. Wondering why it's finished before all the other colours? Well it was when I was loving the brown too much and applied it all the time! So that's why it's finished =_= Ohh and this was also my first eyeshadow quad/palette so that also explains the excitement of using an eyeshadow LOL.
Here's what I bought:
I'm such a Revlon fan. I think this is the only brand I like to buy from consistently that is a lower end brand.
I bought another brush of theirs (note: I actually want all but I am currently trying to stop this urge to go and buy them) which is the 'all over shadow brush'. It's really soft and applies the shadows really nicely so definitely a good buy!
Revlon All Over Shadow Brush
Price: £6.86
All I can say is that I love this stuff <3 There's so many reviews on this & I'm sure most of you know that this stuff is great :)
Revlon ColorStay Foundation in 180 Sand Beige
Price: £11.99
My eyeliner was running out so I got another one.
Revlon ColorStay Eyeliner in Black
Price £5.99
I finally bought my first lipstick! I thought lipsticks could never work on me because I would never know what colour to get. Lipsticks are far easier to choose from, since they suit everyone in my opinion, but lipsticks are different. They can take longer to apply too but that's where sophistication comes in. There can be so much style, culture and emotion with wearing just a lipstick. I've only just realised that so my apologies if you already know so.
This is from the matte collection that came out quite a long time ago. I wanted a matte lipstick so that I could change from the 'oh-so-glittery' lip gloss to a less sparkling and more natural option. Not that I wear much lipgloss these days anyway, I loathe the hair sticking onto gloss. I been meaning to get this but I wanted to wait until there was 3 for 2 offer :)
Revlon Matte Lipstick in 003 Mauve It Over
Price: £7.29
& here's me sporting it:
Quite a nice and natural colour which I really like :)
Ohhh and last but not least I finally bought something from MAC! First Mac purchase ever, lol got so excited. There's not much that I like from Mac apart from their blushes, eyeshadows and maybe their brushes but the brushes are so expensive. So I finally made up my choice being there for 30mins!
Bought a...*drum rolls*

BLUSH! *applause* LOL
Took me so long to choose and I had to get some help from the staff there. I asked for a blush that was kind of pinky but has a hint of coral and just a little bit of shimmer. At the end she picked the blush in 'peachykeen' which is the one I picked up at the start! Think I should go with my instincts next time and save time to not ask the staff there.
Now I need a good blusher brush to apply this.
Woah now that was a long post. So to finish off this post I will leave you with my Raffaello that I have been munching on this whole holiday. It was truly a heaven :)
Hope you're all doing well =)
