Recent New Purchases

Hi guys :)

You've probably seen the following products done to death already but I wanted to share with you what I got from the MAC Wonder Woman collection.

Now I love Wonder Woman and I really like the packaging. It has the essence of the comic and is fun!


To me the compacts look like frisbees. Definitely suitable throwing weapons!

I only picked up the two blush colours. I'd really like to get Pink Power Mineralize Skinfinish but my store didn't have it in stock and it's being held hostage online :(

Amazon Princess

Mighty Aphrodite

Pink Princess followed by Mighty Aphrodite

I'm really pleased I purchased both of these products, I really like them and the colours aren't similar to anything I already own.

Now some of you may or may not be aware that I was made redundant right at Christmas so pennies have been a little tight of late. However, to celebrate getting a new job I found these little bargains hiding in my local T J Hughes.

I went into the store hoping to find Stila Cloud for a bargainous price but alas they didn't have any Stila in stock :( Sad times :( They did, however, have a whole bunch of Urban Decay products which leads me to believe that the line is definitely being pulled out of Boots.

I picked up the Deluxe Eyeshadow in Heat for a bargainous £3 :) I've been stalking the colour in my local store for some time; I could just never bring myself to pay £14 for it!




I think this colour is going to look great in the Summer with a ton of mascara and black eyeliner. Perfect for the Spring/Summer 2011 bold eyeshadow look seen on the Dior catwalk :)

Then I spotted these two polishes:

Revlon Belle

Revlon Star

These colours came out in a collection last summer called Just Add Sparkle. The collection comprised of a set of creme polishes and a co-ordinating set of sparkly top coats. Belle paired with Silver, which is actually a light grey creme, and Star paired with Rock which is a purple creme. There was also Ruby, which was red, that went with Slipper and Lunar, which was black, that went with Galaxy. Really wish I was able to get the others now to complete the set :( Oh well :(

Have you found any bargains recently? Did you get anything from the Wonder Woman collection?

Until next time...

  5. @Lillian Funny Face: I'm so pleased with both but I definitely think Mighty Aphrodite is the more unique colour of the two. Love me some glitter polish :) Love the fact that these have larger particles and aren't just straight up glitter :)
