MINI HAUL: Revlon,Mac, Rimmell....

Hello Dolls!! Hope everyone is having a lovely day so far! Just wanted to show you guys a few stuff i picked up recently. I haven't really gotten a lot of makeup recently as i can't get a lot of the stuff i want here. e.g Ben Nye Banana visage powder and UD Vice palette.:( oooh and also the Real Techniques brushes by Samantha Chapman.... hopefully soon....

Now unto the post...... First thing i have to show...

REVLON COLOR STAY FOUNDATION in TOAST

I have wanted to get this foundation for a while but never found it here.... Thanks to Konga i was able to get my hands on this FINALLY!!! A dear friend of mine from twitter sent me one in the shade Caramel but it was just too dark for me. The swatches and pictures i had seen of people who use this foundation online matched with my own skin tone and i was quite disapointed. I decided to grab the toast and it was a little too light but i mix then together and i get the perfect shade.. so YAAY!!

 

 

I am actually quite pleased with this product. It gives me a nice matte finish and it STAYS!!! It really does what it says even though it gives me a tough time when i try to take it off. I have worn this out a couple of times and i had a nice dewy face after a while as i have oily skin... These are still available on Konga for N2350 and they stock them in a variety of shades. I must say i do prefer this to my Mac Studio finish foundation, it controls my oilies and the price is great.

BOBBI BROWN EYESHADOW IN COPPER PENNY

I also picked up the Bobbi Brown eyeshadow in Copper penny recently. I realised that i do have a lot of shimmery eyeshadows but i don't have a decent GOLD eyeshadow.. I don't know if you know what i mean  but YEAH!! :D... I have worn this quite a couple of times and its the prettiest eyeshadow ever. I love to apply this in the corners of my eye to make them pop...

 Just look how pretty it looks from the picture.. Its the most gorgeous bronzer ever!! It gives a lovely glow. I like to dust this on the tip of my nose,forehead and my cheeks! POP!

   

 RIMMEL 8HR COLOUR MOUSSE 

I have never been a fan of cream eye shadows as they always crease after a while and aren't the easiest to apply even though they promise that. I saw these on KONGA and after reading reviews on them i decided to get the colours MERMAID and GET FRESH..

  I must say i am  really impressed with these.. I do use them as a base and they make my eye shadows look more vibrant and last longer. I also like to use GET FRESH on my eyes alone. It gives a nice shimmer.

 These have been discontinued by Rimmel but can be found on KONGA for N450.. get it Ladies!!

JORDANA LIPSTICKS

I picked up some more Jordana lipsticks which i seem to be really enjoying. They are very creamy,pigmented and not drying on the lips AT ALL!! These are cheaper alternatives to the high end lispticks.. I cant figure out what MAC lipsticks these would be dupes for but if you want a nice pink and berry lip color i would suggest these....

MAC VIOLETTA LIPSTICK

This is a very bold and INTERESTING lipstick.. Its an amplified finish and very pigmented on the lips... Honestly, its one of those hard to describe colors... A light magenta, purple... :S.. It has a very pretty sheen to it and i have worn this out a few times at night because i'm too scared to wear this out during the day.

 

 

This is the boldest purple lipstick i own and i absolutely love it! Its a very sexy, in your face bright lip color. I will do a FOTD with this soon! Hopefully im bold enough to actually wear it during the day. :D

 Hope you guys enjoyed the post!! More Hauls coming soon!

 I also wanted to thank everyone for the support and all the love on twitter! It's very encouraging.. Thank you so much!! :D

Thanks for stopping by!

XOXO

Precious..
