A Very Belated Summer Haul

Holla,
As per usual, I haven't posted like I said I would. But this time, it wasn't out of laziness or me being forgetful but my laptop broke so I couldn't put it up as planned, plus a little bit of procrastination, I'm not going to lie.
I am going to apologise in advance for the bad quality pictures, I was so jet lagged and eager to use these products so  I kinda rushed. I also had extreme bad luck with my camera, well electronics in general during this holiday.
Anyways, here it is:



All I could afford from American Apparel was scrunchies and nail polish #poorlyf
I have only good things to say about the nail polishes other than the neon one. It comes matte and in weird thin, streaky coats, you have to layer a lot but a coat of Seche Vite at the end really helps.

Flirt! - Far Out in Brown and Agent Lash in Agent Teal
Covergirl - Lash Blast Volume
Maybelline - The Falsies Big Eyes


So far loving all these mascaras, would recommend. But if you get the Flirt! mascara in your eyes might as well pour soap in your eyes. it. hurts. so. much.
I recommend putting on of those water proof mascara maker mascaras on top.

My favourite one is the Big Eyes, my lashes have never look so long and lethal. It is beautiful!



After hearing so much hype about the colour tattoos, I had to pick them up. I went for colours I don't have. So far I'm pleased with them, I haven't been able to use it in a more everyday wearable look but I don't do the whole "no makeup" make up.
Maybelline - Colour Tattoo in 45 Bold Gold and 30 Pomegranate Pink

Excuse the old liner swatches...

I can't keep myself away from anything hologram or duo chrome so had to get the Nine West clutch wallet thing, from Ross of course! 

The J.Crew ipad case/ pouch thing was the best bargain of the summer. From $32.99 to $02.99!!! 




While in American, you must take advantage of the amazing colour range of drugstore (not so fond of using this to describe Walmart and Target) foundations! I got a uber light shade fo ma gurlfrands, who ask me to their makeup but there's a (major) skin tone difference so I will use that lighter foundation on them
I also popped into Macy's and the Laura Mercier counter were giving free samples, HAPPY DAYS!

Maybelline - Fit Me Foundation in 325, 330 and 350 
Fit Me Concealer in 30 Cafe Café

Laura Mercier - Tinted Moisturiser in SPF 20 in Walnut



Definitely the worst picture of the lot but the colours are true. The only thing I semi regret buying is the jumbo lip gloss because it make my lips tingle and smells funky but the colour is really nice.

Only negative is I DON'T HAVE ENOUGH, I'm currently trying to persuade my parents to buy me more and we'll se how it goes.
