This week's haul (with cheap Maybelline!)

Just a few bits and pieces here and there...

Chemist Warehouse
Maybelline Colossal Cat Eyes Mascara
Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick
Maybelline Colorsensational Lipstick

Seeing as Chemist Warehouse has 50% off Maybelline until the 11th of May, I felt obliged to visit! I was actually planning on buying some more of the Vivids Color Sensational Lipsticks, but after swatching the testers I realised the colours were too out there for me! I have Hot Plum which is suuuper gorgeous, but the others would probably look garish on me. 

Maybelline Mascara 
(RRP $19.95, sale price $9.95)
I actually have another one of these mascaras lying around, waiting to be used, but I figured I'd stock up while they're cheap. Does that make me a hoarder?

Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick in 'Sloane's Plum'
(RRP $13.95, sale price $11.69)
Apparently Rimmel is a little bit cheaper too. On Instagram, I saw swatches of a Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick in a shade called Dark Night Waterl-oops (what a name!) and I was instantly in love. It was a deep plum, perfect for winter, and it kind of looked like MAC's Rebel, which I do not own but would like to! Much to my dismay, I don't think Australia has this shade, I couldn't see it anywhere, but this colour seems pretty close. Check out some pictures here. Now I just need an excuse/occasion to wear a vampy lip shade. 

Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick in 'Pink Peony'
(RRP $16.95, sale price $8.48)
I was wearing a peachy coral coloured top the other day and was at a loss when I realised I didn't have a colour that matched! So obviously I've dealt with that problem; this shade is a frosty shimmery peachy-pink colour that hopefully I'll be able to wear quite a bit.

Powder Perfect polishes
Shadow Hunter
Elation
Widow's Walk

I also placed an order with Powder Perfect and bought some pretty polishes! This is the first order I've placed with them and I'm very pleased so far. The polishes are very affordable too, around the $10 mark. Thanks to Lou over at The Beauty Vine for sharing the love via Instagram! I love when I discover amazing new brands/products through my favourite social media platform. 

The week is not over yet - will it bring any more goodies? I wonder! 

What have you been hauling lately?

  3. haha no, definitely not a hoarder! I often "stock up" on my products, who knows when they'd decide to pull it off the shelves!
