My make up purchases from my mini holiday.

Hey everyone and welcome back to my blog!!  

I haven't posted anything in quite a while and I'm so glad to be writing this new post for you guys :) I've been so busy the past few weeks, it's insane!  I went on holiday for the weekend and I'm also writing my Dissertation which is due in 2 weeks...OMG....help me now....but anyway, I'm going to show you guys what I bought when I was in England.  It was such a well needed holiday as I was so stressed with Uni and everything and it was just a great break.  I met my best friend who lives there and I couldn't have asked for a better holiday.

As you all should know, England has AMAZING shopping malls! I went crazy in all the make up stores and I couldn't control myself.  So many amazing brands that we don't have in Malta and that we have to stay ordering online and getting charged delivery fees...like Urban Decay, Benefit cosmetics, Smashbox, Bobbie Brown etc!  My favourite shop would have to be Urban Decay, so many amazing make up products.

So let's start....I'm going to start with my fav product from the ones I bought which is the Smashbox Brow Tech To Go.



It rolls up and it is shaped at a bit of an angle as you can see above.  It's so perfect to create that sharp, defined brow.  This product is exactly like the Anastasia Beverly Hills brow definer.  It's absolutely amazing and I'm so happy with this product.  It slides on so easily and you do not have to apply so much pressure.

Next is the Smashbox Contour Sticks!



Love these!!! They are big crayons basically and it came with a sharpener.  The texture is so smooth when applied on the face and it blends so easily.  There is the darker shade for contouring, the medium shade as a bronzer and the lightest one of course for highlighting.  These crayons are so easy to use - absolutely in love.  Also I found it super easy to contour my nose with these because you just "draw" a line where you want to contour and then just grab your beauty blender and blend - so simple.

Next is the Beauty Blender.


Well not much to say about this, but it's the perfect blending tool.  I've been wanting to buy a beauty blender for ages.  My foundation looks 100 times better using the beauty blender and it just blends everything so nicely.  Make sure that it's damp before you use it.  Love the shape of this, the thin part is perfect for under the eye area and blending the nose contour. 


My other fav product is the Urban Decay "Heavy Metal" glitter in "Distortion". 



I've been wanting these glitters for ages as Nikki Tutorials uses them in her YouTube videos (P.S check her out if you haven't, she's amazing).  I asked the sales assistant for them and initially I wanted the gold glitter but unfortunately they were out of stock, but then she showed me this one and I fell in love.  She applied it over my black winged liner that I had on, so that she can show me how it looks and it just looked amazing.  Here is the photo below.  I felt like I had mermaid eyes and I just loved how it looked so I bought it.  Very happy with this purchase. 



And lastly....


A pair of false eye lashes.  As soon as I saw them, I knew I had to buy them.  Love how they look and I can't wait to try them.  

So that is all! I really hope that you enjoyed reading this blog, if you have any questions or difficulties, please feel free to leave a comment.  Share this post if you enjoyed reading it and stay in tuned for my next one :)


Lots of Love - Suzanne P.D.
