Summer Makeup Haul

oops, so the other weekend i went shopping in superdrug and this happened...

Someone needs to stop me going in there! i honestly think i have a makeup addiction, although i am mostly pleased with these purchases.

The first things i picked up were some Barry M nail varnishes (not that i need anymore!) but i did get them even cheaper than they normally are as superdrug were doing 3 for 2 on all nail products.
Mint Green, Greenberry, no name (just the pink limited edition one), Peach Melba, Matt White

I love all these colours especially the Gelly Greenberry one which is actually much more greeny turquoise than it comes up in the picture. Even though the white is called 'Matt' it is in fact quite glossy which is nice because otherwise you risk getting tippex effect nails which is never good!

I also finally got round to buying the Bourjois Magic Nail Polish Remover which is BRILLIANT! i wouldn't say it works in 1 second but it's definitely brilliant and works better than any other form of nail polish remover i've tried! Its basically a sponge saturated in nail polish remover so you put you finger in and twist then pull it out (this all sounds very shady-its not!!) and the nail polish is gone. Plus it was part of the 3 for 2 deal at was very reasonably priced to start with.


I needed a waterproof mascara for summer and when i went to the Maybelline counter and saw that they were doing 2 for £10 on selected make-up so i also picked up a coral pink lip gloss called 'Glorious Grapefruit', i love this on its own to add shine or on top of a lipstick. The mascara i got was the falsies volum' express in waterproof which i actually think allows you to build up more volume than the regular formula.




The lipstick i bought was from MUA for only £1! It's shade 16 and called Nectar. I love it with the lip gloss that i bought from Maybelline.

I made a bit of an error with my next purchase, i thought i was buying a waterproof liquid liner (from miss sporty) to combat my oily eye problem, but it turns out the one i picked up isn't actually in the waterproof formula *facepalm* however it was only £1.76 or thereabouts and seems to be quite long wearing and smudge resistant!


And finally to take it all off with i bought the L'oreal Paris make-up removing water, which i saw Miss Glamorazzi talking about in a youtube video, she compared it to the much loved Bioderma which i have never had the opportunity to try plus it's a fraction of the price at only about £3.70. When i tried i discovered it removes all traces of make up and leaves no residue on the skin, i predict that i will forever repurchasing this product!



[disclaimer- this is not me trying to show off or anything like that, it's just showing you some products i've bought and what i think of them]
