Undisclosed Desires In Your Heart
Last week I bought some new makeup from eBay. At first I was a little bit worried about buying it.. you don't know what could be in it haha! But, after looking at the feedback and the comments I decided it was worth a shot. I'm obsessed with Benefit - I just love the packaging and the vintage feel of it all, not so much the pricetag though. I've had the BadGal lash mascara, the lipgloss and BeneTint, and my staple, the Brow-zings eyebrow box which I think I could die without. It's amazing! I'm saving up to buy a new SLR, so I was going to cut down on little things like buying nice makeup and stuff, so had a little look online. And found this..
Mac False Lash Effect Mascara - £4.50 (with £2 postage) Benefit Boi-ing Industrial Strength Concealer - £3.50 (with £2 postage)
The reason they were so cheap is because they are factory faults. Like the packaging or the printing is slightly wrong so they are unsellable - but I can't notice any difference! The products themselves are perfect.
I have tiny weenie eyes and literally no eyelashes and this is amazing! Saying that, it REALLY hurts when you get it in your eye...
I this is a really irrelevant post, but I'm sure I'm not the only one who loves getting good makeup really cheap! The link is Here for the mascara but just click see sellers other items, there are other Benefit things for sale too.
P.s, buying a new SLR, anyone got any good recommendations? My budget is about £800-850 x Labels: Beauty, Benefit, eBay, Mac, Makeup

IT'S BEGINNING TO LOOK A LOT LIKE CHRISTMAS..
Hey!! Not like anyone else has talked about it (it's all i've heard about and seen for the past week).. Snow?! It's honestly upto my knees here where I live. Like seriously? Started in NOVEMBER? -8?! Agh, I think it's safe to say summers over guys!! I managed to get out of the house today without slipping over.. or getting completely soaked, so, I went to town with my friend Holly, and I thought i'd treat myself to some early Christmas presents.

I've decided that im upping my complete makeup collection. I've tried a few Benefit products in the past, but I just love Urban Decay & Benefit's packaging, so, looks like i'm going to be splashing out a little over the festive season - hey, there's nothing wrong with that.. I guess? Today I bought the UD Perversion Liquid Eyeliner - it's actually amazing. Seriously.
The brush is so versatile I can even manage to get it on my bottom lashes too. Sorry you can't really see the eyeliner too much, the lighting's rubbish now it's winter! :(
I stuck with my good old £2.99 Collection 2000 eyeliner because I just thought it was black liquid, but this stays on for HOURS and the brush is amazingly precise, I'm actually in love. I bought it for £12.50, but there was a 10% offer on, so I got it for around £11 (i cant remember..). Also, when you bought any product, you got a free product. So, I got the Big Fatty Mascara in Black - i'm in need of a new one, the brush is mahoooooosive. Naturally, I thought i'd make the most out of the offer, so bought a pinky blusher in 'Quickie', for £12.50 (originally around £13-14). It's so smooth. If you want some new makeup.. Urban Decay is the one. I then got a mini-eyeshadow Primer Potion, which keeps eyeshadow solid for hours and hours. I love that it's in a little bottle too, it means I can take it everywhere [: I picked up the Ultraglide lipgloss from eBay, brand new and sealed for about £3, (it's $17 online) in shade 'Deep' (it tastes like cinnamon, it's got me in the Christmas spirt), and the Benefit IT Concealer pencil for around £4 too. Not bad, in my opinion!

And lastly, I picked up these BarryM nailpolishes from eBay for 99p!! The postage was £3.50, but still, I was very pleased. I love the lime green one, it's so lovely. Go on, buy your self a christmas present.. or two..
P.s.. WHAT ADVENT CALENDAR DO YOU HAVE?! P.p.s Thankyou for the 90 followers. If i can manage to get 100 by Christmas, it will be a pretty awesome giveaway!! Labels: BarryM, Beauty, Benefit, Urban Decay
