MINI JANUARY HAUL + FIRST IMPRESSIONS

ESTEE LAUDER - Modern muse Eau de parfum

I am about to start on my new job next month and I thought what better way to start it off by investing in a more grown up mature scent. This scent caught my attention around half a year ago when I smelt this within a shopping centre and I haven't forgotten about it since. I really like this sophisticated scent and it is very different from my usual fruity and flowery scents that is already in my collection.


Clinique Bottom lash mascara

I have been intrigued by this little mascara for ages and never understood the hype because I never gave in to the hype. Having tried the big eyes mascara by Maybelline with the smaller brush for the lower lashes, I found that a smaller brush does mean easier application and grabs onto the lashes. First time using this mascara was quite frustrating to be honest because it is such a small brush. Although it took a longer time to apply, the results definitley showed as my lower lashes appeared longer compared with when I use a normal mascara. Removal was a little bit messy though because it comes off in little tubes and bits which i'm not really used to and defintley unexpected.


Louise young LY34 brush

Blogger fueled purchase. This foundation brush is a dome shaped which is nothing like any of the other brushes that I own in my collection. I do love using my real techniques buffing brush but this one is a little bit larger and flexible in comparison. For the price, this is really soft and good quality. I find that applying liquid/cream foundations with this brush made the process much more quicker and it blends the foundation in much more seamlessly compared with the buffing brushes. The only downside to this brush is that it is a little bit bulky and long in length so it is a mission to fit into my makeup bag when I travel around.


MAC pro longwear lipglass

An orange shade is definitley not on any makeup looks at the moment as the weather is so cold and such a warm summer shade is not appropriate. However I adored how this colour complimented my skintone so well and instantly made me look very awake and full of energy. My skintone naturally suits orange toned lipsticks and I was captivated by the thickness of this gloss and how pigmented it was. First impressions of this lipglass is great and i'm looking forward to the springtime where I can get more use out of this shade. 


REVOLUTION ultra aqua brow tint

I have been sitting on the fence for the past couple months deciding whether I wanted to invest on the infamous anastasia dipbrow promade because the price was a little bit steep for my liking and I was unsure whether it would be for me or not. When i realised that revolution did a similar brow gel and in a tube form, i instantly placed an order with them and at such a small price, it cannot go wrong. I have used this product a couple of times and I have been loving it so far and gives a more precise and neat finish to my brows compared with just using my eyebrow pencil. The formulation was easy to apply and the pigmentation level was just right.
