Well another week has come to and end and it has been another busy busy week and weekend.
I had a very exciting haul week this week. I didn't get too much but I got something I have been very excited about. My Coastal Scents 22 piece brush set! I ordered this on Tuesday and paid express Fedex and it turned up on Friday. I was so excited to get the 'delivered' email that I almost wanted to leave work straight away! The full set plus delivery was $70 and it came with the pleather case and 22 brushes as shown in my new brush holder behind the case. I also ordered an extra brush that was on clearance. If you are interested I'll do a full review on the brush set!
I got a couple of things from The Body Shop this week as well. I got the cute little facial brush which is super soft, and some blotting paper. They were $4.95 each. I also got a new Body Shop facial washer but I've already covered it in make up so I didn't want to picture it.
I picked the Garnier BB Cream this week as well. I've read some good and some negative review on this and I actually quite like it. I think if you purchase this product expecting a BB Cream you would be sadly disappointed but if you go into this knowing your getting a tinted moisturiser I think you would be pretty happy. I've tried several methods of applying and I've settled on stippling with my new Coastal Scents Bionic Brush. I love the application it gives. I finish this cream with a matte powder and it keeps the shinys away.
I received a couple of freebies this week too. I finally got a Clinique mascara in the mascara swap. I'd put my name down at my local David Jones ages ago when the swap was on as they had not yet received their sample sized ones yet and they finally rang me on Thursday saying they had one in for me. 'Yea!' I'm yet to try this. My other freebie is an eyeliner from Model Co. I'm getting a little collection of these going! I have not tried this yet either.
It was also Bellabox time of the month. You can read about my Bellabox post here.
That's my haul for the week!
What did you pick up this week?
I didn't buy anything this week, but I really need a brush set! xx
ReplyDeleteI am in LOVE with my brush set. I highly recommend checking Coastal Scents out. They ship internationally thankfully! I paid for express postage but I think the normal shipping was $15 USD. The set was $35.
Deletethat brush set looks pretty sweet. did you get the garnier cream in the lighter shade? i been thinking of getting it cause the medium one is too dark but i'm worried the light shade is too pink for my skintone
ReplyDeleteI got the lightest shade. I'm pretty pale and it is a little dark for me but blends out pretty well. I think the medium would be quite dark I'm afraid.
DeleteThat brush set looks lovely. :) I have a major thing for brushes and I think I have 5 brush sets *blushes*.
ReplyDeleteI liked the Garnier BB cream but my skin hated it. It took me months to get over the breakouts from a week of using it. :(
I do love it. It's a great brush set.
DeleteI have heard lots of people had bad reactions to the Garnier BB Cream. Fortunately my skin seems to love it. :)
Nice haul! That set looks amazing. I've had my eye on that Body Shop facial brush and am going to buy it next week :)looks good for giving cleanser a bit of a boost.
ReplyDeleteWow Coastal scents brushes! :D I would love to try those or Sigma ones!
ReplyDeleteI went shopping this week too, you can see it on my blog :) http://berrixbeauty.blogspot.com
Sadly I did not like the Garnier BB cream as I broke out but glad it works well for u!
