Sabline EOTD

Because I moved out of my apartment on Saturday and am not leaving NZ until Wednesday I am staying with a friend (bless her!) for my last few days in Wellington. Was getting ready yesterday and nosy little me spotted an unknown makeup brand eyeshadow on her dresser “Vincent Longo”. Had never heard of that brand but the shadow was a stunning muddy rose/pink/reddish colour. So I decided to create an EOTD with this eyeshadow. Really liked the result :) I want a similar colour added to my collection now….

MAC Fascinating eyeliner  pencil (waterline)

Have you ever heard of Vincent Longo makeup? My friend she got this eye shadow as a freebie when placing an order on Strawberrynet.com. Was very impressed with the product, long wearing, velvety soft texture & great pigmentation. Happy Monday! xoxo

Mini MAC Haul

Hi everyone,
It’s official, I am unemployed! It was my last day at work on Friday. 
Who knows when & where my next job will be….
Work threw me a little farewell morning tea and gave me some MAC vouchers as a leaving gift (woopie they knew me so well!) Of course I went straight to MAC to get some new goodies. Thought I would share my little farewell purchases:

Twinks Mini MAC Haul
MAC Twinks Eyeshadow
Deep plum with pearl (Veluxe Pearl)
Am always a sucker for gorgeous shimmery brown colours, this one has a plum tone to it!
Wedge Mini MAC Haul
MAC Wedge Eyeshadow
Soft muted golden beige taupe (Matte)
Wedge has been on my wish list for ages, perfect for contouring, applying o the crease, or blending out other shades. 
Blacktrack Mini MAC Haul
MAC Fluidline in Blacktrack
Long wearing, smudge proof gel liner.
Have never tried MAC gel liner, so can’t wait to see if it lives up to it’s amazing reputation!

Here they are swatched:
Swatch Mini MAC Haul
From L-R: Twinks, Wedge, Blacktrack

You can expect some looks with these new purchases! However my blogging may be a little sporadic for a while because this weekend I moved out of my apartment & am staying with a friend until I fly out on Wednesday. However will update you all as much as possible :) Hope you all had a lovely weekend! Lots of love xoxo

Creme Cup>

Whilst packing and clearing my room I managed to scramble together 6x empty plastic MAC products! And you know what that means….yep I  pretty much ran straight to the MAC store to score myself a FREE lipstick. Oh how I ♥ free stuff!  I picked up a lippy that had been on my wish list for a while but was always out of stock.  But not this time, lucky me. I got the Cremesheen Lipstick in Creme Cup!

I have been wearing this new lipstick almost non-stop since I got it. The Cremesheen formula is absolutely amazing; it is creamy, moisturizing but still light on the lips & well pigmented. Creme Cup is a stunning light, feminine pink colour with blue undertones. It’s very similar to MAC Angel lipstick but think Creme Cup is a little “creamier/glossier”.

 Creme Cup>
Love love love it, perfect for everyday pink lips!
