♥ eBay Haul ♥

Today I'm to be doing an eBay haul, I did buy all these things in January however because most of them were from China I did have to wait a bit of time for shipping and also I stupidly decided to order when it was Chinese New Year so it did take even longer. However it's all here now and I'm going to show you them today, I ventured onto eBay as I'd been watching a lot of eBay hauls and I wanted to try out some of the things for myself. So let's get into it.

Firstly I bought a few things for my phone including this adorable phone case which I think looks a lot like the Skinny Dip phone cases. Which I do have one of but I find they're not very good quality, so I thought I'd buy a cheaper version and this one is really cute.

Secondly I bought a Pop Socket as I've seen so many people using them and I have to say it does make your phone a lot easier to hold and I've been dropping it a lot less. So hopefully this 99p pop socket will be able to save me a lot of money instead of replacing my screen.

I bought a few beauty things including this really cute eyelash case as I keep leaving my eyelashes that I have around the house and I just needed a cheap solution. So when I found this I thought it would be perfect as I know a company does something like this as I've seen it in some videos. But I just needed a cheap solution.

 I also bought some makeup brushes including these Real Techniques dupe brushes which I do want to do a review on soon as I haven't used them yet. I came across these as I noticed them in a lot of people's hauls, so I figured I'd give them a go. 

Another makeup brush I bought was this fan brush as I really wanted one for highlighter as I've noticed the brush I was using makes my highlighter too thick, so I've been trying this one out and I don't really like it as I feel it isn't dense enough to pick up the product.

The only actual makeup item I bought were these lip liners as I'd seen them on BellaBambinaxx's channel. She gave them a good review to say they were £1.99 and I must say I am not really enjoying them as they are so hard that you can't really line your lips without really pressing down and then I think you lose control. Therefore I personally wouldn't recommend them.

The final thing in my eBay haul are these sunglasses as I really wanted to try them out but I didn't know whether they were going to suit me. I'm still not to sure whether they do or not but they were only £1.90, therefore if I decide against them I didn't waste a lot of money.

That's it for my eBay haul I hope you enjoyed and maybe it gave you some inspiration to do a bit of shopping yourself. See you soon.

♥ My Mac Palette ♥

Today as promised a while ago I'm back with an in depth look at my Mac palette, I've swatched each colour so you can get a better look at them. My personal intention for my Mac palette was to have colour that could be interpreted many different ways for a nude eye look. So I'll so you the colours I picked.

Firstly we have Nylon, which is a beautiful shimmering white shade that is perfect for both the eyebrow and inner-corner highlight.

Next is Jest, I particularly love this shade all over of the lid and put a light brown colour in the crease. As it's just such a pretty shimmery pink toned shade, it is very similar to All That Glitters so don't feel like you have to have both.

This is Expenisve Pink, which I was a bit scared of at first but I thought I'd buy it as I wanted to go out of my comfort zone. But it's still a wearable shade as it has a very strong gold tint to it.

This is Saddle, it's the shade I was previously talking about as it's my favourite shade to use with Jest as it's really subtle which is what you need with just a light shade like Jest. But also it's a perfect transition shade for my skin tone when you want to do a smoky eye.

I love Amber Lights as it's a stunning gold, it is very oranged tone so it works well with the next shade. But if your a person that like a yellow toned gold instead of this burnt orange. I'd definitely recommend Half-Baked from Urban Decay.

As I said Bronze works so amazing with Amber Lights and its actually the reason I bought these two were to use them together. They look amazing either with Amber Light on the lid and Bronze in the crease, however they also look great when you simply mix them together and apply all over the lid.

Tempting is another good one for the crease and again works great with Amber Lights or something I've started doing recently is deepening up the outer corner with Tempting when using Saddle and it looks so pretty. 

A more subtle version of the previous two shades is Mulch. this is actually one I bought a really long time ago but I do still love it. It does have a subtle shimmer to it which I think makes it even more pretty.

And finally we have Embark, this is a really dark plum which does look slightly brown at the same time. I chose this shade to again take me out of my comfort zone a bit instead of buying a plain old brown and its the perfect shade to really darken the outer corner.

That's it more my Mac palette I hope you enjoyed and it gave you some inspiration if you're looking to buy a Mac palette in the future. I'll see you next week.

♥ StephaniePlansCo Review ♥

Today I'm going to be reviewing StephaniePlansCo which is a Etsy store which sells these amazing Mickey Mouse donut paper clips. I personally gravitated towards the princess ones including Belle, Ariel and Rapunzel, however she does an amazing range including original donuts, Disney villians and so many more. 

Firstly I'd just like to say this seller is amazing, she honestly couldn't have done enough for me including changing clips after purchase and a custom order of the Rapunzel rose clip (which is now a listed clip due to popularity). I spoke to Stephanie so much before I actually placed my order about everything from international shipping to customs. My order was shipped after a week I ordered it which I personally thought was really good as they are made to order and especially seen as I had a custom order. Her products are so amazing and good quality, they feel so sturdy and I mean her designs are breathtaking. I especially love her rose crown clips as they have stunning glittery ears, the Ariel has the most gorgeous green glitter ears which look remarkable. I love following her Instagram as she releases so many beautiful designs that I always want and they definitely don't disappoint as they are even more beautiful in person. Stephanie's attention to detail is amazing there's details on these clips you would never ever think to put on there such as the small glitter detail on the pleat of the dresses. 

Overall I couldn't recommend this shop more from the service to the owner to the stunning products Stephanie delivers. Even if you don't purchase any of these clips, please just go and check out her store (here) or her Instagram (here) as her products are just so stunning and deserve so much recognition. Also she brings out so many amazing clips there's at least one that would suit you.

♥ My Holy Grail Lip Products ♥

Today I'm going to share my Holy Grail lip products, these are just the products that I'm constantly reaching for at the minute that I keep in my bag for easy reach when I'm out and about.

Firstly we have Kylie's lip kit in Posie K which I always reach for when I'm going for a meal or a special event as it does take a bit of time to apply so applying in a rush is a definite no.

Secondly we have a few Mac lipsticks including  Brave this is my all time favourite lipstick it goes with everything and it's the perfect formula that you don't have to keep applying it over and over.

Next up we have Mac Viva Glam ll which is just the perfect nude for everyday and I actually wore this for prom so it's a lipsticks which is especially special for me.

I also love Mac's Ruby Woo Lipstick which I really like for a bold lip because sometimes life doesn't go well and we need a bright red lip to get us through it. This one is my favourite because it's a matte lip and stays on forever.

The final Mac lipstick is Mac's Mehr and I especially love this one as it's matte so its last so much longer than other lipsticks. But then it's also such a comfortable formula to wear, so it's definitely become an everyday lipstick.

One of my newest favoruites in the Milani lipstick in the shade Plumrose, I love the formula of these lipsticks it is a glossy finish so unfortunately it doesn't last as long as some other lipsticks. However it's so comfortable on the lips and it's very nicely pigmented.

I have two Bite Beauty lipsticks which have become favourites very quickly including the shade Rhubarb which I think is the perfect everyday day mauve shade. The Bite lipsticks are amazing and made of natural ingredients which is always good.

Another shade from the Bite range is Sour Cherry which is an amazing deep red and is perfect when I want something a bit more comfortable than Mac's Ruby Woo and this is also a lot easier to apply with it being a glossy finish.

So that's it for my holy grail lipsticks I hope you enjoyed and I'll see you soon.
