HAUL: Barry M (with swatches)

On Wednesday I was browsing through the Barry M website to make an order using the 30% off Coupon Code. My order was dispatched on Thursday and arrived on Friday morning.

I have ordered from Barry M many times now and I own quite a few products (mainly Dazzle Dusts).

Anyway, here is what I bought:















Dazzle Dust 93 'Block Blue'











Swatch of 'Block Blue' (left photo taken with flash, right photo taken without flash)











Dazzle Dust 94 'Teal'











Swatch of 'Teal' (left photo taken with flash, right photo taken without flash)









Dazzle Dust 98 'Petrol Black'











Swatch of 'Petrol Black' (left photo taken with flash, right photo taken without flash)










Petrol Black is a hard Dazzle Dust to photo. In real life, depending what angle you look at it, it can be a purple, charcoal or green/blue. It's GORGEOUS! and I repeat, my photos do NOT do it justice at all unfortunately.


Dazzle Dust 99 'Bright Indigo'













I have taken the next photo with and without a flash, as I found with a flash the real life colour wasn't shown in the photo (left photo with flash, right photo without flash)











Swatch of 'Bright Indigo' (top photo taken with flash, bottom photo taken without flash)




















Fine Glitter Dust 19 'Midnight Blue'











Swatch of 'Midnight Blue' (left photo taken with flash, right photo taken without flash)




















Super Soft Eye Crayon 'Black'






Swatch of Super Soft Eye Crayon in Black (top photo taken with flash, bottom photo taken without flash)














Super Soft Eye Crayon in Matt Turquoise

World's Smallest Make up Haul LOL

I popped into my local Morrisons today to pick up some grocery shopping. Me being me, I couldn't leave without having a look at the make up section. But, and that's a big but! I managed to pull myself away with only TWO items... lol.

Rimmel Vinyl Carat Multi-Reflection Lipgloss in Razzle Dazzle:


















NYC Lipstick in Blue Rose:


























I never normally buy bright Lipstick colours like this one, but for some reason I was drawn to it... Who knows, I might be brave enough to wear it on a night out, but not during the day though!

And here is a picture wearing both the lipstick and gloss too:

Haul: Too Faced Products

Here is what I received in the post yesterday morning, 3 Too Faced products I've been wanting to try for a while (I have never bought any Too Faced products before):

Glamour To Go II Palette:




















Mood Swing (original/clear to pink):




















Brightening Blusher in Pinch My Petals:




















I am very pleased with what I chose, my favourite probably being the Palette. I am loving the Too Faced packaging, very pretty! Maybe I will purchase some more Too Faced products in the future.
