I haven't posted a haul in a while and to be honest this is an ickle one from my usual Friday afternoon jaunt to the shops. I thought hauls were becoming a bit tiresome but every now and then I do like a nosey into what is floating other bloggers boats ...
So first up, I went to MAC and I was bowled over that for the first time ever, yes ever, a MUA actually approached me to ask if I needed help!! *faints* I usually have to fight to speak to a MUA in MAC and even then they are usually downright rude but today was a positively pleasant experience. I let the girl know what I wanted and I was literally in and out in 10 minutes!
I went for a Springsheen blush, a colour I have been wanting for a while but just kept forgetting about whenever I had the chance to purchase. It's a lovely peach/coral/pink shade. It reminds me a little of Nars Orgasm but not quite as shimmery although it is a shimmer blush. Then from left to right, I picked up eyeshadows in Charcoal Brown, Vanilla and Cork - all matt shadows. Charcoal brown I have wanted for ages, Vanilla is a lovely colour that will be great as a highlight and in the inner corners of the eye. I have seen Cork on quite a few blogs and YT tutorials recently so I wanted to see how it would work for me. Basically I am looking for the perfect everyday make up routine as I feel my everyday look has become a bit tired and is lacking some oomph. So this is why I went for nice, neutral, natural shades.
I also picked up my first MSF Natural in medium! Everyone raves about this product so I thought it was about time I tried it. Hopefully I will love it as much as everyone else, will keep you posted!
Finally, I went to YSL to pick up the new mascara YSL Singulier. I was encouraged to buy this after seeing Holly's review. Holly has some great photos of her lashes in her review so you should have a look, they look devine. Unfortunately, you are stuck with my terrible photos of the spiral wand! The SA at YSL actually tried to talk me out of buying this - she told me if I like Faux Cils then I should stick to that. Hmmm, I wasn't sure what to make of that but obviously I bought Singulier in the end. It is supposed to curl, lengthen and seperate your lashes but the SA did advise not to apply too many coats of it. I do like to build my mascara up but based on Holly's review I may not need to. Again, I will keep you posted on whether this works for me or not!
So thats my rather small and uninteresting haul. For my next haul I really want to find some lovely lip colours, neutrals and brights. Any recommendations?
