♥ Express Delivery; MAC Bits & Bobs ♥

Evening girls, 

Just a quick one tonight :) 

I placed an order with MAC two days ago and my little black box arrived promptly today... Remember, if you place an order over £50 you receive free delivery or, if you add on named day delivery it costs just £2, a handy thing to have when don't know when or at what time it will arrive & you have to sign for it, which can get a little annoying when you're sitting around for hours on end!

Here's what I ordered...


I finally took the plunge & purchased a Pro Colour Palette, after my obsession with MAC e/s well and truly took off over the past few weeks.. I am hoping to fill this and make it my 'neutral' palette and it's already the new home to; Vanilla, Shroom, Patina, Woodwinked, Espresso & Smut with the new addition of Jest to my collection, as pictured above! I also have Satin Taupe and Sable to depot and add in, so that shall keep me busy :)
 
I also ordered a boring backup of my Studio Fix Fluid in NC20 as I'm almost out, but then a more exciting new product for me to try is the Mineralize Skinfinish Natural in 'Light Medium'.. I've only had time to swatch this and it seems really nice, I can't wait to try it out tomorrow and see how I like it on my skin. I'm hoping it isn't going to make my skin look too matte, as I do prefer a glow rather than a powdery finish. 

What do you girls make of the MSF Natural? Are there any other fabulously amazing neutrals which I NEED to go out and buy asap? 

Hope you're all fabulous 

Lovesss xx

First Haul - E.l.f Cosmetics

So after reading tonnes about this brand and hearing many people blogging about it, as i'm guessing many of you have also! I decided to go ahead and purchase some products which had been hyped up and talked about the most.

Aside from their fantastic price points: Mainline products averaging £1.50 per item and the Studio line averaging at only £3.50 {ELF believe 'Every woman should have the opportunity to participate in innovation, without sacrificing her budget'} The products have been famed in national press and as I said before, across the beauty blogging network! - So needless to say I had to try some!

Here is what arrived :)



In total I purchased:

1. The All Over Cover Stick - Lilac Petal - Highlighter/Illuminator - £1.50
2. The All Over Cover Stick - Spotlight - Highlighter/Illuminator - £1.50
3. The All Over Cover Stick - Apricot Beige - Concealer - £1.50
4. Mineral Powder Foundation - Light - £3.50
5. Corrective Concealer - £3.50
6. Powder Brush - £3.50
and finally...
7. The Kabuki Brush - £3.50

I've so far had all of the products out for a test run, but I shall update you with a mini review of each product when i've had more use out of them and get to see what they're like over a period of time :)

How about you?.. What are your experiences with ELF?
