First product purchases for 2013
Although I technically ordered a couple of these products before the end of last year, I have received them within the new year with much excitement & unfortunately, a little bit of disappointment. So here are my newest acquired makeup products for the year.
First up, my number one baby at the moment. I have been wanting this for soo long so when it finally came back into stock from www.kissandmakeupny.com I had to buy it. I'm sure most of you have heard about it/seen it/ tried it before but it is everything & more. I don't have too many "high end" products so when I do get them I cherish them. It is the perfect colour, doesn't look muddy & orangey, it has a slight shimmer but nothing to upset the face if you use it for contouring, which it is good for, too.
www.ozsale.com.au had another China Glaze sale on not too long ago. Unfortunately when I opened the packet I could smell nail polish straight away, & I knew something had gone terribly wrong.
This is the first time ever I have received a product in fault. The last 2 times I ordered nail polish from this website have been fine, but this most likely would have happened throughout the shipping process, although the package had fragile written on it. I also ordered another polish in the same order that I never got, but I messaged them to let them know & they said they would credit my account, no worries. But I am a bit sad that the other ones are tarnished, especially the pretty glitter!
The colours I got were Snow Globe & Celtic Sun. The one that was damaged was Skyscraper & the one I never got was the leather top coat (I needed a new topcoat too, damn it!)
Terry White Chemists often have sale bins where I found these next 2 Maybelline products. They had no testers to have a look at the colours but I just went for it anyway, I am usually an impulse buyer when I'm in a shop! This colour is very pretty but quite frosty, I like to layer it ontop of a nude matte lipstick.
I also bought the Age Rewind Dark Circle eraser to use as a highlighter under my eyes. Even though I don't have dark circles it is very brightening. It is lighter than my Garnier Roll-on eye concealer which I like. I like the softness of the foam applicator, although it is not hygienic, it is much softer than the Garnier.
Another order which I completely forgot about were some lashes from Vau Beauty that were on ozsale. I haven't heard of them before so I don't know anything about the quality but I shall let you know! These pairs were $7 each. I haven't tried the feather ones before so I can't wait to try them!
A couple of other items I have received lately was a backup on my St Moriz Mousse tanner & my tanning mitt to go with it. I have also placed an order from cherryculture.com with lots of pretty glitters & a Bourjois order, yay! Oh and another CG one to make up for my last order.
What have been the first makeup products you've bought this year??
