Catch up Haul
Tuesday, March 24, 2009 at 8:27PM Evening ladies,
How y'all doing? I am finally better and back on my feet. I've had two full blown colds in the last 4 weeks. And they both took me out completely. But I'm back and I'm finally gonna get on with life!
Twas my day off today and I went hauling. My days. It started off as essentials then quickly turned into just plain shopping :) I'm sure someone out there can relate!!!!
Make-up
I finally got round to picking up the GOSH Eyeshadow Brush, Flat. You can get it as Superdrug for £6.85. I've been collecting the GOSH Waterproof Eyeshadow sticks. I think they are cheaper alternative to MAC's Shadesticks thought they aren't as bright. They are still quite good. I bought the shade "Love that Brown!"I had run out of my trusty Rimmel London Professional Eyebrow Pencil in Dark Brown so I got bought it for £2.93. It works so well for me I haven't bothered trying anything else. It's kinda one of those if it aint broke type things...
For the longest time I've been eyeing these Prestige Lipstick and today I thought to myself why not and got two in "Aftershock" and "Pout" from Boots for £5.86. Now this is after I'd been to the Barry M stand and swatched this crazy matte lipstick called Shocking Pink. It was wild. No joke. I'm still trying to figure out how to work it in my head cause I secretly like it.
**Digression**
You ladies of colour out there...how do you wear colours like Lavender Whip, Gladiola and anything lavenderish?! There is a Barry M colour called Palest Lavender that is very similar to Lavendar Whip. I swatched it and I'm pretty good at imagining colours on my lips and I just couldn't see how it. With my skin tone I think it wouldn't look too hot. However the hot pink somehow holds a glimmer of hope for me. Any suggestions?
Face and Body
I'd run out of my facewash so I thought I'd try something with Witch Hazel again. I have combination/oily skin and witch hazel has worked quite well for me before. Boots had an offer their Tea Tree and Witch Hazel Skin care range for I got the Foaming face wash and Night Treatment gel for £5.00. I look forward to seeing how these work for me. I've been using my husband's exfoliator of late (yes I know...he exfoliates!) and it's quite good but the dude put his foot down and told me to get my own so I picked up No7 Radiance Revealed Exfoliator for £2.25 (£5 voucher. Shazam!) I've used it before and it's quite good.
The Superdrug I went to day was out of my usual moisturiser so I was forced to pick an alternative in the form of their Vitamin E Nourishing Night Cream for £2.44. Yes you read right. I bought the night cream. Why? Cause the day cream had SPF 15 in it and I didn't want that. It leaves me looking ashy and I'm indoors about 95% of my day at the moment. (England and its DUBIOUS weather...) Plus there ain't nothing wrong with getting a little extra moisturization is there?!?! The Glycerin B.P., with retails for £ 0.97 from Boots, is to use with my body lotion. I mix about 3/4 body lotion with 1/4 glycerin and some Mac Vanilla pigment to make a shimmering super moisturising lotion. Keeps my skin supple soft. I thank my mama for that :D. Might post a mini-tut for it.
Make-up Removers
A few weeks ago I ran out of my trusty Expert Sensitive Gentle Eye-make-up Removal Lotion from Boots. It retails for £2.43 at the moment. In my desperation I picked up the Rimmel Gentle Eye Make-up Remover from Asda which claims to remove Waterproof mascara.
My Foot.
It took me 30mins to take of my Define-a-lash Mascara the other day with this make-up remover and swore never again to get something I ain't sure about! Foolywang I tell you. 30mins taking off mascara? I could have cried. Honestly. So I think I'm gonna offer this to anyone who wants to try it. Pay for postage and it's yours! Lol....doubt anyone will want it but hey it's out there if you like.
Anyway as a result of my traumatic mascara removal event I bought two bottles of my Expert Sensitive Gentle Eye-make-up Removal Lotion plus a tube of L'Oreal De-maq Expert Cashmere Milk make-up remover for £4.36 and the Absolute Eye and Lip Make-up remover for £3.86. (why do all these products have such long names?!?!?!) They've both gotten mixed reviews on MakeupAlley but I'm willing to give 'em a go. Can't be worse than that dubious Rimmel shinanigan.....
Jewellery Mags and Supplies
One of these days I'll have to post a pic of some of the jewellery I make so y'all can see what I do. Today I bought April/May's edition of BEAD Magazine and a special issue of Bead Style called Beading 101 both for £3.95. Can't wait to read them. And then I bought something rather random. Shrink Plastic. Also known as Shrinkies for £1.59 from HobbyCraft. Shrink plastic is a very interesting material. Basically you draw what ever you want on a this plastic sheet, colour it in and cut it out to your desired shape. Then you pop it in the oven for a bit and it shrinks down to 7 times it's former size. The colours come out more vibrant and you can do all sorts of things so I'm gonna give it a go! I'm excited. Hopefully y'all will see the fruits of my labour in my next post :) I also got some Sharpie Permanent Markers for £11.54. I'm hoping they will give me the vibrancy I want. Keep a look out!
I hope to be posting a whole lot more interesting things for you this week ladies. I'm still working on the tutorials I promised. It happens to be my pc that is causing the delay and Husband will help me sort it out tomorrow. Till then!
Sweet Dreams!

wow! great haul! glad to see a post from you!
for lavendar colors, use MAC's nightmoth lip liner.. the business!! sorry i don't know any other alternatives, but that is a fave. b of clumpsofmascara and nikkia of slvrlipbmhaven have done fotd using this. i recommended it! =p at least for B i did.. can't wait to hear what you think about the combo!
I make my own eye make up remover.
Just fill an empty water bottle with one part virgin olive oil or baby oil, and fill the rest of the bottle with water. Shake well before each use. Works really well!
