Firstly, I would like to say a HUGE THANK YOU to you, today my profile on Bloglovin' hit the 50 followers mark! Now I know that compared to some people, well, most people, that is hardly anything but for me this is amazing and I am so grateful! I am planning on doing a giveaway soon so please just bare with and keep your eyes peeled :)
Now onto the post :)
Right, I have wanted to order from fragrance direct for a while now so at the start of this month I did it, if you haven't heard of fragrance direct before I would definitely check it out (here!) but basically it is a website which sells discounted and even some discontinued beauty and fragrance goods and the prices are SO cheap and its amazing. The only thing is, their stock levels change every day, which is brilliant if you're waiting for something, but not so brilliant if you want to order something and it suddenly goes out of stock!
And here's what I bought! I got these 14 things for £27!!!!!!! The postage is only £1.95 and it all comes very quickly (I think these took just under a week) especially for the price and everything was nicely in a box with some of those little air bag things, luckily, nothing was broken!
Revlon Colorstay Foundation in Ivory - £7.95
The bottle for this foundation is surprisingly small but apparently there is the normal 30ml which you get in a foundation and it was about £5 less than it is in Boots or Superdrug!
Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation in 100 Ivory - £3.99
This was also much smaller than in the shops so I'm pleased with that! Although considering they are both called 'Ivory' these two look VERY different...
NYC Smooth Skin Liquid Concealer in Light - £0.99p
I got this because I am FOREVER on the hunt for a perfect, cheap concealer which will cover up my HORRIFIC dark circles
W7 Prime Magic Eye Primer - £1.99
I've had my eye on this eye primer for a while now, because I've always wanted to try one to see if they really do make my eyeshadow last longer...
W7 The Bronzer Matte Compact - £1.50
I much prefer matte bronzers as the thought of a shimmery face scares me and also I can use it for contouring as well which means its 2 in 1 :) Also, I love that this bronzer has absolutely no trace of any orange in it which is great because nobody wants to be orange! (well.....)
Constance Carroll Silk Finishing Powder in Barely There - £0.99p
I think I got this because it's name is 'finishing powder', that makes me feel as though it will se my makeup better and make it last longer so I'm looking forward to trying this and seeing if my theory works
NYC Metro Quartet in Best of Broadway - £0.99p
I thought that this eyeshadow quad looked so cute and compact and perfect for travelling with, especially as it has all of the lovely natural colours I would normally wear, I also really love that it has the little overlay with where to put each eyeshadow too.
Maybelline Colour Sensational Lipstick in 625 Iced Caramel - £1.99
I think it's amazing that these lipsticks are only £1.99! Although, I must say I was a little bit disappointed when I opened this because it looks a bit orangey brown but when I put it on it looks really nice, like a deep red kind of colour so I am pleased I chose this one :)
Bourjois UNE Skin Glow Pencil - £1.99
I was drawn to this because I thought it could be used in the waterline to brighten my eyes so I am also looking forward to trying this :)
Constance Carroll Mono Eyeshadow in (Left) Beige (Right) Taupe - 45p each
I then got these 2 Constance Carroll Eyeshadows for 45p each, that's right, you saw it right, 45p!!!!!
Taupe - this is a beautiful browny nudey purple toned colour (I am really bad at describing colours incase you didn't already guess!) which I really like
Beige - this is a whitey gold colour which looks lovely all over the lid or just in the inner corner, what I really like about it is that it's not too glittery its just nicely shimmery :)
I did also get 2 Revlon nail polishes (for 99p each!) in classy - a beautiful pink colour and Minted - self explanatory ;) and I also got an Essie nail polish (for £1.99!) in Fear and Desire - a bright orange! But I forgot to photograph them, sorry!
