Mini Haul

Apologies for not being active for awhile, being a student nurse is well and truly eating up all of my time! But not to fret retail therapy is always the answer, as well as other things I picked up three products, Mac Prolong wear Paint Pot in Bare Study, Mac Lipstick in Creme Cup and Urban Decay Vemon. I'm absolutely in love with all of these beauties. 

Mac Prolong wear Paint Pot - Bare Study


I've heard a lot of good reviews about the Mac Paint Pots yet until this point I did not own one, as a treat I picked on up in Bare Study. This is a soft beige colour with a gold pearl which looks stunning on the eyelid alone or great to build eyeshadow onto.  This product is extremely long lasting, I would go as far as staying this product would last all day without moving or fading away. As a nursing student this product is perfect for just quickly applying on them early mornings, it also doesn't look too much. I would definitely purchase another MAC prolong wear paint pot, probably in Camel Coat or Painterly - Comment below your favourite shade, I'd love to have a little collection. 


Mac Creme Cup 



I finally said 'hello' to Creme Cup, the fifth addition to my growing Mac lipstick collection. I'm normally not a pink lipstick girl but I couldn't say no to this creamy light blue pink shade. I feel this would be suitable on any skin tone and any for occasion day or night. This lipstick is a cremesheen which means it is super creamy on the lips, not drying but also not as long lasting as a matte lipstick.

Urban Decay - Vemon























Creamy badass luxury, indeed, once again Urban Decay you have completely done it for me. Finally, for a while I've been meaning to pick up autumn lip colour for the new season. As berry lips are very now I wanted to originally pick up a dark berry shade but when found 'Vemon' by Urban Decay it was love a first sight! This is a stunning dark pinkish purple is creamy, long lasting, hydrating and nourishing all in one. Next I can't wait to buy 'Shame' which is Urban Decay's darkest red berry shade, also perfect for this time of year.

What's your favourite shade?

Mac Lipstick Wish List


Is it just me or does being in the blogging community bring you a lot of cravings? I mean, ever since I started reading great blogs about amazing products my wish list has been sky high! The main product I just can't get enough of is MAC lipsticks and I know I'm not alone here. As a newbie to MAC my lipstick collection is only small, currently I own four these are; Viva Glam 1, Spirt, Shanghai Spice and Hug Me. When the finishes are such high quality and they come in every colour imaginable with a gorgeous scent, how can you not want more? 

After reading a lot of blogs including these lovelies I have came up with quite a large wish list. These are my most wanted lipsticks: 

High Tea - Lustre -  'Beige- pink with pearl'
Hue - Glaze - 'Soft pale pink'
Creme Cup - Cremesheen - 'Light blue pink'
Pink Plaid - Matte - 'Dirty blue pink'
Plumful - Lustre - 'Blossoming rose-plum'
Lady Danger - Matte - 'Vivid bright coral-red'
Ruby Woo - Retro Matte - 'Very Matte Vivid Blue Red'
Russian Red - Matte- 'Intense blueish red'
Rebel - Satin - 'Midtonal cream plum'
Diva - Matte - 'Intense reddish burgundy'


(Thank you bloggers for inspiring me!)

I'd love to hear about what your favourites are, maybe you have one of these and would or wouldn't recommend it to me? Maybe you know a better alternative to one of these? or maybe you feel I've missed out something amazing? 

Lets talk lipsticks?
