So I may have been a little naughty recently. In my defence I have been saving up for a long time to get these bits. Ah sometimes its fun to be spendy, and I wanted to get a few things to show you all in one post so here are my recent picks...
Firstly I went to MAC, and I think I was probably the last beauty blogger to buy the 217 Blending Brush but at last I got my hands on it. To be honest I have another blending brush I prefer to this one but it is always nice to have a few different size brushes. I will be doing a comparative review of this brush soon so hit follow to read this shortly.
Of course you cannot go to a mac counter and not buy a lipstick! I already have a lipglass in shade Angel so I decided to get the same shade in a lipstick. It is a lovely matte pale pink that is perfect for brightening up a look for the summer.
Next up I begrudgingly got a mac Pro Palette and x15 Insert. I hate that you have to pay for them separately, £20.50 for some packaging is not a great price. If I need one in the future I will just buy a Z palette, but I wanted to have one of these in my collection so I did a little overtime at work.

The MAC Eye Shadows took me a little while to choose, I wanted to keep them fairly neutral. I especially wanted them to look great in any combination. I only got 5 shades for now as I am sure I will enjoy treating myself to more shadows in the future.I actually went in expecting to buy shades All That Glittters, Patina and Woodwinked as well. They are highly raved about on the blogosphere, I just thought my palette would have been a little too shimmer heavy. While I did like the shades I didn't think they were anything special. These 5 beauties however I know I can create some lovely looks with.
One thing that does bug me a little is how many of the eye shadow pans are broken. I had to ask for two to be changed as they were chipped and my Scene pan is still a little chipped which I didn't see in store.
Lastly I went to SpaceNK at St Ann's Place in Manchester. I was served by a lovely girl called Louise who let me try out lots of different contours from Kevyn Aucoin, Nars and Hourglass but I just couldn't find one I loved even with all her help (and patience).
This little beauty however looked amazing when she applied it. The Kevyn Aucoin Sensual Skin Enhancer. This can be used as a foundation, concealer or highlighter. I got it in shade SX02 to use as a concealer. I have only used this a couple of times so far so will be doing a full review on this shortly when I have tried it out a little more.
What do you think of my little buys ladies, have you got any of these products? I would love you to follow my blog if you enjoy reading my little ramblings. My blog is one this month which I will be celebrating by writing a blog post in Spanish, I do have a translator tool for you should you need it, but as I am 1/2 Spanish I thought this was a fun way to share another side of me in my blog :)
Ciao
