INGLOT Purchases and more.

Today I went to Dundrum Shopping Center in Dublin. I went there specifically to go to Inglot because I needed a few bits for college. 

I was planning on getting a lot more but I got overwhelmed by everything and decided to leave it at that and come back in a few weeks when I have my student card and can get my 20% discount :) 

While I was in Dundrum I also went to River Island and Boots to pick up a few other things!

Heres a few pictures... 

The palettes

Concealer Pallete €22

Blush palette €35

 Eyeshadow Palette €45

 Some swatches, the eyeshadows were only swiped once! Amazing pigmentation

Brush belt €35

 And thats it for my Inglot purchases.

 It took me about an hour to choose the colors as there were so many!

I love everything that I got and cant wait to go back to get some more

Now on to my other goodies...

Hairspray brushes. All €9

Hairspray lashes €3. I will probably use these on bottom lashes as their quite short

 Aussie leave-in hair conditioner

Neutrogena 2-in-1 wash 

 River Island baggy top €14 it was on sale 

 I also went to MAC and got a black paintpot which I couldnt get a picture of because my camera died :/

Anyway.. I just want to say that everybody should try Inglot. the prices are very reasonable (cheaper than MAC) and the quality is amazzziiinnnnggg!!!

I wish I was gettin paid by Inglot to say this but im not haha I truly think that this brand deserves all the publicity that it can get. There are only a few stores around the world as their only getting started but if you have one near you definitely pay them a visit. 

And that is all :)

Halloween Dilemma...

I need your help!

As you know Halloween is coming up and Its time to get our costumes out!

This year I decided to buy an actual costume rather than making it myself..

I found some pictures on e-bay that gave me an idea of what I could be!

I cut it down to 3!

Now if you girls could help me pick one that would be great because im just so damn undecisive

Goldielocks

                                                                        Bumble Bee

French Maid

Now I know all these girls are models and the costumes look great on them! I am very small 5'3 and the dresses wont be so short on me! (Hopefully)

And yes, before you ask I did consider being a dead zombie or a vampire but im going out to a nightclub and I dont wanna end up like Lindsay Lohan in Mean Girls!

If you could tell me which outfit you like the most I would really appreciate it!

And dont forget to tell me what your dressing up as!

Small Haul!

As I mentioned in my last post I picked up a few small things before I started college!

Its not much at all but I thougth Id make another post out of it :)



 This ring is from Miss Selfridge! It was half price so I got it for €6. I had a little bit of a disaster with this ring, I was trying to open it from its packaging and cut 2 of my fingers. I didnt notice untill I had blood all over my white scarf! Not good! Oh and im really sorry for the overly-fake-tanned hand! I know it looks nasty but its gone now after I scrubbed my hands

                         I got this cardigan in a shop called Rude! It was €19. Hooraaay for Brgains!

And I have finalyl filled my MAC palette! So proud :)

The e/s I got yesterday are chrome yellow and romp

I am now going to try and fill my blush palette!

Have you purchased anything nice lately?

How to get your brushes squeaky clean

Most of my Brushes are from Sigma Makeup! I have some random ones from MAC, Elf, Clarins and my latest obsession Crown brushes! 

I used to just clean my brushes with baby shampoo but I always found that they were never completely clean. 

Id like to share a little tip for getting rid of foundation out of your brushes!

I care for my brushes just as I would for my body, skin and hair.

I exfoliate, shampoo and condition :)

Here are my dirty brushes!

 

I use these two products to clean my brushes

St. Ives Body Polish

Simple baby all-in-one wash 

                                 The body scrub is very moisturizing and has quite large grains in it

                 In my opinion this works better than normal shampoo because it breaks up the foundation in the bristles and its then easily rinsed out with water. 

I use about this much for one brush

I only use this exfoliator only my foundation brushes.

                                              

I then wash my other brushes with simple baby shampoo and condition them with this lovely apple smelling conditioner!! Its very cheap but does the job!

I find that if i skip this step my brushes are not soft and scratch my face! 

                                                                                 Voila!!!
                                                                Clean and soft makeup brushes!

Let me know if youve tried this method and it also worked for you!

Thank you for reading

MAC's upcoming collection

Some of the palettes are quite nice but the packaging just completely ruins the collection in my opinion.

A little message for MAC: Please stop releasing collections every second week. They get boring and customers cant keep up.

What do you think of this collection?
