MAC Shadowy Lady Quad


I had to test my new quad out, shadowy lady's so versatile! I used all the colours with deep truth (blue) on the lower lashline, really pretty. It actually looks really light on camera apart from the grand duo blush on my cheek hehe.
The brushes in my new set were really soft too- so happy! =)

Going to go eat my tiramisu that me and the bf made now...yum


freestanding- how awesome!

**HAUL crazy** CCO

I've been hauling (in my head) non stop and I finally found the time to go down to my CCO for some haulage. I've been waiting for almost 2 weeks as I get an extra 10% on purchases this bank holiday weekend- unfortunately I forgot to print my email out which really pissed me off!
So, here's what I got:

Clinique Brighten and Protect set
Superdefense triple Action Moisturizer
Turnaround 15-minute facial


MAC basic brush set
make up case and 129, 219, 239, 266, 316
Can anyone tell me which collection this is from?

MAC pro eye makeup remover

MAC e/s quad



Total Haulage Cost: around £80







Amazing value as I needed a new eye makeup remover anyway, my bifacil's running out!
I've already tested some of them out here


Lightfall, Smudged Violet
Deep Truth, Shadowy Lady






I was planning on getting carbon and cranberry along with the pro palette but I opted for the quad this time cos I loved love smudged violet- I think it'll go with a lot of things!


Summary:

Spend too much money in CCO
So glad I bought the skincare set (was dying to try turnaround after tianny's recommendation)
Any ideas on a look I can create with the quad?

Can't wait to review:

MAC pro eye makep remover vs Lancome Bi-facil
Superdefense vs my staples (philosophy, lancome, neal's yard)
Clinique Turnaround facial


Back to revision, more hauls soon.
Pro palette next time!

**Review** Philosophy Purity Made Simple Cleanser


I love love this product!
Just wanted to share this with everyone as my first post.










This is my all time favourite product for almost 5 years. Everytime I run out and substitute it I break out. Very effective at keeping spots at bay and removing all you make up, cleansing your skin of impurities and toning, hence one step facial.

Not very foamy, meaning not too much soap to irritate your skin.

All skin types, sensitive too
Sandalwood oil, rosewood oil= soothing
Cinnamon leaf oil= plumping (I think, have to check)
All round day/night cleanser- gorgeous!

Squeaky clean? 95%

Waterproof mascara? 90% removed

Uncomfortable tight skin? No!

Scent? Clean, mild

I buy it from Selfridges, I think you can get it on hqhair too. Spacenk used to do it, but not anymore :( Check it out anyway :)
