MAKE UP FAIR Haul/ Review!!

Hello People! This post is long over due and i pormised i was going to do a post on the few items i picked up at the LMUF.
 
So here's what i got
 
1) Shadow Shields- Giftys Daughter
2)Wet n Wild gel eyeliner- Giftys Daughter
3)Duo Eyelash Adhesive -My Makeup
4) Eyeshadow palette -Kuddy Store
 
 



SHADOW SHIELDS
 


 
Aaaaah!! Shadow Shields!! The absolute jewel of this haul for me. I  wanted these ever since i saw Lilpumpkinpie05 on instagram/youtube use these repeatedly for every eyeshadow application and had no fall out over her face after using those matte eyeshadows that just ruin your pretty makeup. I used these and they are absolutely worth it if you are a " DO YOUR EYE MAKEUP AFTER YOU APPLY FOUNDATION" girl like me :D... No annoying fall out or raccoon eyes.
 
 




 
DUO LASH ADHESIVE
 


I got these after reading amazing reviews on them. Havent tried this yet as i havent run out of my ardell eye lash glue. :s ... And i honestly havent worn eyelashes in a while.
 

 
 
 
 
WET n WILD MEGA EYES CREME EYELINER



This gel eyeliner boasts of amazing pigmentation. It is smudge proof and lasts all day. Absolutely love it and switched my liquid liner for this. The brush works as an amazing eyebrow brush for me.






BEAUTY TREATS 88 EYESHADOW PALETTE
 
 


This eyeshadow palette is absolutely gorgeous and amazing for the price. It has a wide array of colors and finishes to choose from. I particularly love the shimmers though.




  

 
 

Amazing pigmentation. Must have

OOTD/ FOTD: Featuring Mac Embrace Me Lipstick




Hi People. I haven't done an OOTD or FOTD in a very long time so here is one. Over the weekend i attended a very beaituful wedding and this was a chance for me to glam up and look pretty. As much as i love makeup and would love to glam up every day, we all know that will not be happening because.... WELL.... No body gat time for that!! LOL :D


This FOTD will be feature a lipstick from the recent Fashions Sets collected released by MAC. I was able to purchase two  of the four lipsticks that came out in this collection. ( Embrace me and Ablaze... Review coming soon) . I decided to skip out on Silly as i already have enough lookalikes of that  and Heroine ... Well we all know that is one hot mama to CATCH. ( Look at me referring to a lipstick like a person) HAA * covers face*

Mac Haul!!

 Hi Guys!!
Recently i got these Mac goodies but i hadnt gotten around to blogging about them . For a lip product lover, and as much as i love MAC , i hadnt gotten around to trying their lipglosses because i felt they where absolutely dupable and a fortune. I rather stick to lipsticks.
 
Me being my usual snoopy self went to the MAC website looking around and decided to pay some attention to the glosses this time around . And then guess what happened..... :/ haaa.
 
:D I decided to get some and i got two different finishes ( Lipglass and cremesheen ).
I also got a mineralize skin finish in Gold Deposit( been wanting forever) and a zoomlash mascara( my maybelline falsies which are my favourite mascara of all time ran out :( ) Heard it does the lashes good and so far i really like it.
 
 
L-R Gold deposit, Lipglass- Nymphette, Oyster girl, Cultured,Underage, Cremesheen- Deelight, Partial to Pink, Boy Bait, Just Superb, Mac Zoomlash

I will be reviewing these products seperately so that i can give an honest review and also include dupes if possible.  So far so good i am really enjoying these.
 
I didnt get these at the MAC store but im sure they stock these if anyone is interested in purchasing anything that catches your eye.
 
Does any one have any of these products? Do let me know what you think and how you use them.
 
Thanks for Stopping by!
