Elf Haul
This was
the first time I've purchased anything from elf. I was a little sceptical at
first as I have heard mixed reviews about them. A lot of youtubers have said
how good they are but when I went on the website there were comments saying
that they hadn't received their order and they'd been sent the wrong things.
But eventually I decided to make some purchases. When I ordered my things they
had a free delivery promotion.
First of
all I ordered the 10 piece brush set which was £12. The brushes are really good
and they are so soft. Brushes on the website are quite cheap the normal range
brushes cost £1.50 but they do have some other brushes which are £3.50. I have
been looking for some good brushes and these brushes are really good
considering the price you are paying for them.
I ordered
the gem tool kit which cost me £6. I really wanted some eyelash curlers and it
made sense to buy this set as it included a mirror and some tweezers. These
thinks always come in handy and they were so pretty as well. It will be
interesting to see how long the gems stay on but for now they are really good.
I bought a small brush holder so
that I could but my brushes in and keep them safe. It cost me £5. There isn't
really much to say about this other than it is a bit like a pencil pot. It is
black with eyes lips face written on it which is what elf stands for.
I then ordered the dual eyeliner sharpener. The think that
is good about this is that it can sharpen broader eyeliner pencils. On the
website it is called the dual pencil sharpener but it also comes with can extra
sharpener so in a way you are getting 3 sharpeners for £1.50 which is a good
deal.
I really love nail polishes and all of the nail polishes
from elf are £1.50. I decided to buy a neutral pink colour which is in the
shade nude. It is a lovely pale pink colour that if I’d had it when I did my
top nail polish collection then this colour would have defiantly been in it.
All in all elf is a really good website. The products are
really cheap and of quite good quality for the price. However my only problem
with it is that sometimes the colours on the screen don’t actually reflect what
the product is going to look like. That is my only complaint considering people
were moaning about not receiving their order mine came quite quickly. I ordered
it Saturday afternoon and I knew that Monday was a bank holiday I thought I’d
have to wait a bit longer for it to arrive. I got an email on Wednesday saying
my order had been dispatched and I got it on Thursday. So was pleasantly surprised.

Peacock Eyes
Want to create gorgeous peacock eyes then keep reading.
What you will need
Green eyeliner pencil
orangey brown eyeshadow
green eyeshadow
purple eyeshadow
mascara
What I used
Eyeko skinny eyeliner in emerald green

This eyeshadow palette by Colourworks
Step 1:
Use an eyeshadow brush and blend the orange colour into the corner of your eye and up to your eyebrow.
Step 2:
Line around your eye with the green eyeliner it is best if it is a metallic shade of green. Try and keep as close to your lashes as possible and take it right to the inner corners so the lines join together.
Step 3:
Next take the green eyeshadow and cover your entire lid build up layers if you want a really intense colour.
Step 4:
Take the purple eyeshadow and apply it along your socket line blending it into the corner of your lid. Finish the look by applying your favourite mascara.

Makeup Haul
Beauty Haul
I haven’t actually got much to show you guys sorry! The
reason being on my last shopping trip I mainly went clothes shopping so didn’t
buy too much makeup. You will be able to see what clothes I bought here.
This is what I got in Superdrug. At the moment they have 3
for 2 across all ranges. I bought the nail polish set for my friend because it
is her birthday soon. These colours are just her sort of colours. The palette that
I bought is a lovely neutrals palette but instead of just being browns it has
got some nice greens and greys. Keep your eyes out for a review on it. The last
thing I bought was a lipstick by collection 2000it is one of their volume
sensation ones in the shade sea shell. Check out the review of it here.
Also from New Look I
bought a w7 eyeshadow palette called sexy eyes. It was reduced to £2 because it
doesn’t close properly but it is still perfectly fine.
Clothing Haul
At the weekend I went clothes shopping. I mainly went to buy some things that I can wear to my 6th form induction week but I did get a few extras.
So I'll show you what I got for 6th form .
The skirt is from Marks & Spencers this cost £14.00 and it has cute little bows at the top of it. The top was from Tesco and it was £9 and underneath it is just a plain black vest top that I also got from Tesco.
The skirt is another one from M&S and it is a mini skirt that was in the sale for £5 it was meant to be £14.00 so I got a real bargain there.The top is not actually for 6th form but I thought I'd photo it with the skirt. It was from New Look and it was in the sale at £5 instead of £9.99.
The last think I bought for 6th form was this jacket from New Look and a scarf from M&S. The jacket was £24.99 and the scarf was £5. The jacket could be worn with other clothes and not just for 6th form which is quite good. Get the jacket here
This dress is amazing. It is a gorgeous light red with mint green hearts. I got this from New Look and it was in the sale. It was meant to be £22.99 but I got it for £10.


This floral playsuit caught my eye just as I was going to the changing room and I knew that I just had to have it. It is perfect for summer and it was only £16.99. Get it here
