Sunday night haul!

Hi Pretties

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?

Sunday Night Haul

Hi All

Well it's the end of the week and it's time for my Sunday night haul. And i'm a day late! Easter weekend has really thrown me and I completley didn't realised that yesterday was Sunday lol. I promise I'm really not that dumb normally haha.

Anyways this weeks haul was pretty small due to public holidays etc but I did pick up a couple of things.

Firstly I got 3 Orly nail polishes (blogged about here) from Priceline that were reduced even cheaper to $2.95! From left to right the colours are Aspen, Not So Dusty Rose and Walk Down the Isle.

Secondly I got a crease brush by Models Prefer and it is the MPP120 Crease. I plan on using this more as a blending brush as I already have another style crease brush I'm quite fond of. I really like the Models Prefer brushes and every second Priceline catalogue they seem to be on special which is even better!

Lastly is a Mac lipstick in the colour Lovelorn. It's a lustre and it's a beautiful medium pink colour but it is not too bright that it can't be worn by day. I really like the lustre formulation and I think I will definately be getting more in this range. It's mildly moisturising, but definately not drying as I find my other Mac lipstick Angel which is a frost to be.

Well that's the haul for this week?

Did you buy any new beauty products this week?

Random tip

Spot clean your make up brushes by wiping with a cheap make up remover cloth daily to prolong the life of your brushes and extend the time between deep cleaning!
