Beauty Haul :)

Sorry I promised you this yesterday but I felt too yuck to do it :( I am still sweating very badly and my temperature is still too high sniff Oh and I've started sneezing again :( However beauty goodies always cheer me up a bit and I've got a few bits over the last few days :)
First off all the phenomenon of the blog sale - what a fabulous concept :) I managed to win MAC Lightscapade MSF from the fabulous Lollipop26 on Sunday I had given up the hope of ever owning this since ebay prices were so ridiculous but I've got it and I love it - I am pretty pale and it gives a gorgeous pale pink/ silvery sheen on my cheeks - Thanks Laura!

I also placed a little baby sized MAC order - partially thanks Emma from Magpie Sparkles amongst others.

I ordered the fabulous Naked Honey Skin Salve - I must admit I wasn't sure what to expect with this because I don't particularly like the smell or taste of honey - but this product is fabulous it has more a sweet, and floral type of taste and smell. The tub is much bigger than I thought and its really moisturising :)

Perhaps the biggest purchase I made from MAC though is a 15 pan eyeshadow palette - Being a complete depotting virgin I also bought a few bits from ebay e.g. stickers and magnets. I always used to prefer portability but more recently when I've gone out I've found myself taking palettes so I though why not! I also bought Phloof to start my neutrals palette off

So this afternoon armed with my hair straighteners I've managed to do some depotting

I decided to use the stickers on acetate method of labelling because it looked to be the easiest and it also protects your shadows a bit

I have certainly got the bug now and can't wait to get some more palettes ,oh and when I am well enough do some serious Back 2 Mac work :)

I also picked up a few bits from ASOS including two Barry M Dazzle Dusts

  6. @DaisyChain - aw no problem sweetie try not to worry the sad fact is it looks as though most people will get it at some point :( but hopefully in the majority of people it isn't too serious( I am just sweating and so so hot and my chest hurts like mad which isn't fun at the moment but I am following medical advice and taking my anti virals, keeping my fluids up and taking paracetamols -I'll get there x
