Tiny beauty haul thanks to the bank of DAD

For these past two days I have suffered from chronic stomach cramps which induce me to feel faint, have shivers and lose feeling in my legs. Yes, they really are THAT bad. After having to come home from work early yesterday and feeling not to well again today yet battling into work, he treated me a bit. Bless.


So these are everything I got and admit-tingly its not a lot but new things really cheer you up! I REALLY wanted the limited edition neon pink Barry M and he said make it over £6.00 (what it needed to be free) and even though you can buy it separately I obviously didn't argue :P I've been after some cheap lip liners for a month or so now as I find them rather hard to use and didn't want to fork out loads for say a MAC one. I seen these at £2.99 each and 2P short decided to pick up the pencil sharpener too! I picked up a red and pink as they're the colours I wear most! 



I also picked up a Models Own nail varnish in Hedonist £5.00 after eying it up for a week or too and its such a beautiful colour.

Collection (2000) Lasting Colour Lipsticks

I have adored Collection's (Previously Collection 2000) make up for ages now. Its all amazing stuff and really cheap too! I like splurging on make up, and brands such as MUA I find such terrible quality. But Collection is really amazing stuff! 
These lipsticks are award winning and I can totally see why! 
They also include SPF15 (added bonus!)
They are super pigmented and the finish is somewhat similar to M.A.C's amplified/satin finishes. Just wonderful, bright, colourful, smooth lipsticks.

 Bubblegum - Ruby Red - Pink Shock - Sweet Tart - Orange Punch

At £2.99 these are affordable and excellent quality. Luckily enough for me, I visited a place where these lipsticks were made a couple of years ago and all the people were so lovely. It was super clean, excellent conditions and it installed a good deal of trust within me that this brand was good quality and trustworthy.


Bubblegum - Ruby Red - Pink Shock - Sweet Tart - Orange Punch


They're all such beautiful colours on the lips. As MAC lipsticks have now gone up another £1.00 (thats £15.00 in the UK now!) I will definitely take another look at these and think about purchasing some more colours!

My M.A.C make up collection

When I look at my MAC make up I get a little sad because I did actually used to have more than what I have now. I did a programme called BACK2MAC and that quote is on every MAC package when you open it up. Ever wondered what that means? From the MAC website.... 

'Because we share your commitment to the environment, M·A·C accepts returns of its primary packaging through the Back to M·A·C Program' The basic rule is that if you take back 6 empty products they will give you a free lipstick from the normal collections, so not the Nicki Minaj ones for example. But it's such a good deal! I had 3 empty foundation bottles and 3 empty fix+ sprays and getting a new lipstick to me sounded like a very nice idea. 

So anyway, before I babble on any further. I'm not going to talk through all of the products because that would take me ages! If you maybe like to see some single reviews, then let me know?



The two grey bottles are Fix+ sprays. I swear by these!
Both foundations (One in box, one not) are Studio Fix in NW10
