PSA/Mini Boots Haul

July 4, 2012 By Julianne

I’ve never posted a ‘haul’ before because I just don’t think they’re worth the effort. I don’t mind seeing other people’s haul posts but I can’t be bothered to take photos and write a post when I won’t even have much to say! I prefer to wait until I’ve actually used the products/items a good few times so I can properly review them.

However, I wanted to post this just in case you have a little Boots store near you because they, like my local, might have changed their displays and have these items at clearance prices. As far as I can tell with Google none of these items have actually been discontinued, it’s just that they won’t be selling them in smaller branches of Boots any more.

Top to bottom:

  • BarryM Black Glitter Eye Crayon – 50p – To be honest I got this just because it was 50p. I’m sure I will find a use for it, it’s black with silver glitter, shouldn’t be that hard. They also had silver and aqua versions of this.
  • BarryM Wink Black Marker Pen For Eyes – £1 – I had a Maxfactor eyeliner pen years ago. I got it because I was scared of actual liquid eyeliner. It wasn’t very good. I have heard this is better so I thought I’d give it a try.
  • 17 Photo Flawless Mascara in Black Blue and Black Green – £1.50 – Price and curiosity got the better of me. I didn’t get Black Copper, though they had one and I have brown eyes, because brown-black mascaras are too light for my lashes, I prefer blue and green to copper, and I’m not really bothered about bringing out the golden tones in my eyes.

They also had:

  • Blue and yellow (!) L’Oreal lipglosses – £1
  • Barry M glitter eyeliners – £1
  • Barry M Dazzle Dusts, a coral pink one and a gold – £1

May 31 Day Fashion Blogger Challenge: Day 29 – Face of the day

May 31, 2012 By Julianne

Today’s face is neutral – just a brownish shimmery eyeshadow, a bit of blusher, mascara and lip balm.

So instead I have an EOTD from a couple of weeks ago. I originally intended to go to a pub but ended up staying at home with a friend.

 

I used a real mix of products: Urban Decay 24/7 Shadow Pencil in Retrograde (purple), one of my many purple eyeshdows on top and blended up into the crease, and the silver from the Sleek Sparkle palette on the other half of my eyelids, with Bourjois Suivez Mon Regard in ‘Regard étoile d’argent’ (loose silver glitter) patted on top. I finished the look with Bourjois Liner Pinceau in Black à la the Rookie tutorial.
